Endomembrane System - ER to Golgi Flashcards
2 fates of nascent protein in ER
retained ER
exit from ER
2 fates of nascent proteins that remain in ER
stay localized in RER
move laterally through ER lumen or membrane bilayer to another ER subdomain
where do the proteins that exit ER initially go
ER exit sites (ERES)
what are ERES
ER subdomain involved in formation of transport vesicles destined for Golgi
where are ERES usually located
next to cis face of Golgi complex
what else is ERES machinery also responsible for
proper packing of vesicle with correct lumenal and membrane cargo proteins
why do vesicles at ERES have distinct morphology
due to layer of soluble coat proteins (COPS)
what can be found attached to the cytoplasmic surface of nascent vesicle membrane
COPs
2 main functions of COPs
- mediate membrane curvature and formation of vesicle
- recognize and concentrate specific cargo components into vesicle
3 major classes of coat proteins
COPII
COPI
Clathrin
how do COPII coated vesicles move
forward from ERES to Golgi - anterograde transport
how do COPI-coated vesicles move
backward from Golgi to ER and backward within Golgi - retrograde transport
how do clathrin -coated vesicles move
from Golgi to endosomes or from plasma membrane to endosomes
what is Sar1
soluble COPII component - a GTPase
what is Sec12
an ER intergral membrane protein
how does Sec12 function
as a GEF that catalyzes exchange of GDP for GTP on Sar1
what are Sec23 and Sec24
soluble proteins form ternary complex with Sar1 at ERES membrane surface
where are membrane cargo proteins destined for
exit to ERES for Golgi
what do membrane cargo receptor proteins do
bind to soluble lumenal cargo proteins destined to exit ERES for Golgi
what are membrane trafficking proteins required for
subsequent trafficking and docking nascent vesicle with proper acceptor membrane
what is the most common ER export sorting signal
di-acidic ER export signal (-Asp-X-Glu)
where is the ER export sorting signal located
cytoplasmic-facing-domains of Sec24 selected vesicle membrane proteins
