they get tagged with a mannose-6-phopshate sugar in the golgi

82
Q

explains how the mannose-6-phosphate sugar system works

A

M6P receptor in the golgi has a YxxO motif that binds AP1 -> recruitment of clathrin to exit the golgi -> fusion with late endosome -> pH drop -> M6P cargo is delivered.
Then M6P receptor returns to golgi via retromer complex

87
Q

explain the steps of the generation of multivesicular bodies?

A
  1. early endosome recruits Rab5 GTPase
  2. when GTP bound, Rab5 GTPase recruits PI(3)K Vps34
  3. early endosome gets enriched in PI(3)P
  4. PI(3)P recruits ESCRT complex which concentrates ubiquitinated receptors
  5. invagination of vesicles, internalization of cargo
  6. signaling stops, degradation
88
Q

what happens as the endosome acidifies further?

A

PI(3)P- 5Kinase Pik-FYVE is recruited, generating PI(3,5)P2, causing the release of a series of factors, and recruitment of new proteins

500nm

96
Q

what is a chimeric protein?

A

fusion fluorescent protein cDNA with cDNA of protein of interest

filters out the excitation light and allows the lower energy longer wavelength emitted light to be detected

99
Q

what kind of proteins are stained by immunofluorescence?

A

endogenous proteins

100
Q

how can you validate the specificity of your antibody?

A

by testing the antibody on cells where the protein is knocked out by CRISPR or gene editing techniques (should see nothing)

101
Q

A

transmission EM: electron beam passes
through a section, patterns detected depend on sample absorption of electrons.
scanning EM: scanning of surface structures only

104
Q

cryo: sample is flash frozen at -80.

105
Q

how does focused ion beam electron microscopy work?

A

image electrons of a layer and then remove the layer by burning it, repeat (you can get depth this ways)

106
Q

what is electron tomography?

A

tilting the grid on which the sample is to get a little bit of depth

107
Q

how can you avoid chemical fixation?

A

cryo-Structured Illumination Microscopy: imaging of frozen samples to capture immunofluorescence.
Can be followed by FIB-SEM (Focused Ion Beam Scanning Electron Microscopy)

109
Q

what did they find doing cryo-SIM/FIB-SEM characterization of ERES?

A

each ERES was composed of vesicular-tubular membranes devoid of ribosomes. Each ERES is connected to ER via a narrow neck and tubular network.

110
Q

how were they able to follow a cargo through ER-Golgi?

A

RUSH system:
1. put a streptavidin binding domain into target cargo
2. have a streptavidin “hook” anchored to the ER in the cell
3. add biotin to compete this interaction (pulse proteins forward)
4. stop reaction at any time by fixation or freeze and analyze

111
Q

what did they tag to follow the cargo?

A

TNF-a

112
Q

the presence of Sec23 at ERES says what?

A

defines it as a COPII exit site from ER

113
Q

how does photobleaching work?

A

you loose all fluorescence of fluorescent protein; recovery of fluorescence = cargo comes back in

114
Q

the photobleaching experiment showed what?

A

rapid refilling of ERES (in WT)

115
Q

Cholesterol being colocalized with TNFalpha-RUSH at the ERES showed what?

A

cholesterol can create a membrane domain that can dynamically retain membrane proteins and lipids by a partitioning mechanism (helps sorting cargo at ERES)

116
Q

what movement did they see after the RUSH experiment?

A

2-3 minutes long stationary phase; 10-15 minutes of anterograde movement with tubules; minute 18: cargo in golgi

117
Q

what did they find when studying the accumulation of cargo at ERES?

A

ERES double in size during RUSH (moving cargos) but their organization doesn’t change

118
Q

what cargo did they mainly use in the ERES paper?

A

TNFalpha-RUSH

119
Q

they analyzed the RUSH cargo at 8 min. what did they find?

A

long microtubules emanating from ERES

120
Q

what did they find out about how different cargos exit ERES?

A

different timing of exit for different cargos (regulation based on cargo type)

121
Q

what does it mean if the time to accumulate at ERES of a cargo is 0s?

A

the cargo is initially already present in ERES

122
Q

what is H89? what was its effect on RUSH?

A

established chemical inhibitor of Sar1: blocked the enrichment of cargos in ERES (cargos dissipate from ERES after 30s) and the release of cargos, causing cargos to accumulate at the neck and tubule

123
Q

why did they want to study Sar1?

A

to study COPII’s potential gating function at ERES

124
Q

the H79G mutation locks Sar1 with Sec23 on the membrane to block cargo release. How did it affect RUSH? what can we conclude?

A

block enrichment/recovery of cargo, and blocks release of cargo, just like H89.
Concludes that the recycling of Sar1 is essential to cargo enrichment.

125
Q

what did the photobleaching experiment with H89 and Sar1-H79G mutation show?

A

Both showed the lack of refilling of ERES (different from wild type who’s ERES filled back up)

126
Q

what did the paper find COPII’s primary role to be?

A

gate protein entry into ERES. Confocal imaging found that COPII stays at ERES upon cargo exit

127
Q

graph shows that the % of Sec23 with BCOP is highly decreases in H79G mutant Sar1. what does this mean?

A

BCOP is a subunit of COPI. So, we can conclude that COPI acts after COPII and requires dynamic cargo enrichment

128
Q

unlike COPII, what happens to COPI after biotin addition?

A

COPI exits ERES with the cargo.

129
Q

what did they find about cargo ERES entry and exit rates?

A

Different types of cargos (TNF-alpha-RUSH, GPI-RUSH, TfR-RUSH, and Gp135-RUSH) have different rates

130
Q

what is BCOP?

A

antibody to the endogenous COPI subunit (used to localized COPI)

131
Q

where did they find BCOP (COPI)?

A

colocalized with Sec23 (COPII)

132
Q

what happened to BCOP (COPI) in H79G mutant (Sar1 mutant) / H89+ cells? what does this tells us about the order of things?

A

BCOP/COPI subunits are lost from ERES, no more colocalization with COPII. COPII mutation affects COPI, therefore COPI acts after COPII

133
Q

what is BFA?

A

something that inactivates Arf1 to interfere with COPI (cus Arf1 is COPI GTPase)

134
Q

what happens to the cargos when BFA was added?

A

BFA (Arf1 blocker; Arf1 is main COPI GTPase) did not alter ERES assembly but blocked ERES exit. ERES enlarged because cargo was accumulating and can’t exit. Shows that COPI acts downstream of COPII

135
Q

the results of adding BFA (blocking COPI formation) implacte what?

A

blocket ERES exit = implicates that COPI is necessary for differentiation of transport intermediates after ERES

136
Q

how did the paper hypothesize cargo move to/from ERES?

A

via tubules and microtubules with a dynactin motor (p150glued)

137
Q

how did the paper find microtubules?

A

with FIB-SEM imaging, found pearled transport intermediates going to the golgi

138
Q

why do they think the ERES have a pearled appearance?

A

the pearled appearance could reflect tensions induced by motor pulling

139
Q

what is p150glued? where did they find it?

A

a subunit of the dynactin motor complex. they found it associated with transport intermediates containing cargos

140
Q

what did they find when localizing cholesterol and cargo?

A

colocalization; to be expected because remember the intermediates are cholesterol rich

141
Q

what does the paper suggest that Sar1 function is?

A

COPII Sar1 acts as a gate at the neck of ERES. It doesn’t coat the budded vesicles like we thought!

142
Q

what is the ERES cholesterol enrichment hypothesized to do?

A

facilitate stabilization of cargoes there

143
Q

the paper hypothesized that what molecule is the determinant of cargo exit and recycling?

A

COPI

144
Q

what is the main characteristic of the neck of ERES (ER to ERES neck)

A

it’s narrow (def needs proteins to hold it tight)

145
Q

where is COPII vs COPI localized in ERES?

A

COPII is closer to the neck and acts first, COPI is closer to the rims (exit site)
