L32 Flashcards
ER transport involves
Signal sequence
SRP complex - binds to receptor in ER membrane
Translation continues and translocation begins
SRP displaced and recycled
Signal sequence is
Hydrophobic
A start-transfer signal
Within the peptide sequence, not NH2 terminal
Signal peptidase :
Cleaves off signal sequence
“Stop Transfer” sequence :
Hydrophobic
Causes polypeptide to stop in translocator
Resistant to peptidase
Vesicle transport budding
Key players :
Adaptin, clathrin, cargo receptor, dynamin
Adaptin binds :
Clathrin and cargo receptor
Dynamin is :
A GTPase
Destabilises neck bud thus pinching off occurs
Requires energy from hydrolisation
What comes off in budding?
Clathrin and adaptin, only cargo receptor remains
Vesicle targeting
Key players :
Rab, Rab effector, SNARE (t and v), GDI
Rab is :
A small GTPase
Guides vesicle
Rab effector is :
Binds to RabGTP to guide it
Where is the vSNARE?
At the vesicle-containing-cargo
What’s the trans-SNARE-complex?
A mix of tSNARE and vSNARE that helps fusion by bringing membrane close to each other
Identify the 3 coat proteins involved between ER and Golgi
COP 1 (between cisternae, involved in cargo transport in cisternae), COP 2(between ER to Golgi), clathrin (recycling and Golgi to somewhere else like plasma membrane)
2 mechanisms of cisternae transport?
Cisternae maturation, vesicle transport between cisternae
