Sept 22 - Endocytosis and Lysosomal Targeting Flashcards
What’s a cell free system for studying golgi vesicular transport?
Put a donor golgi lacking GlcNAc transferase I (N-acetylglucosamine transferase I) with VSVG. Add this to an acceptor golgi with GlcNAc. You should see viral protein
What is GlcNaC?
N-acetylglucosamine transferase I
It comes between Mannosidase I and Mannosidase II in the glycosylation pathway.
What is the step affected by endo h?
Mannosidase II
Three ways that sorting can occur
- Coats
- Lipid-dependent partitioning
- Geometric - membrane proteins partition into tubes with high SA:V ratio, default recycling for membrane proteins
Rafeldin A
Collapses multiple compartments into 1
Acid hydrolases, cathespins, acid proteases
Proteins that are found in lysosomes
Re-derived storage (Glut4) compartment
Retains glucose transporters in insulin-responsive cells
List some lysosome related organelles
Platelet dense granules Pigment cell melanosomes Antigen processing compartments Mast cell granules Cytolytic granules in T cells Secretory lysosomes Lamellar bodies in lung cells Weibel-Palade bodies in epithelial cells
What’s the significance of transferrin?
You can incubate cells on ice and when you raise to a permissive temperature the cells will endocytose transferrin.
If you label transferrin red transferrin will go to the recycling endosome for 1st 5-10 min and then to sorting endosome for last 5-10 min. This is different from opioid which goes to the late endosome for 1st 5-10 min and then the sorting endosome.
Rab5
Enriched on the early endosome
Rab5 GTP recruits Rab7 GEF. Rab7 GTP recruits Rab5 GAP.
Rab7
Enriched on the late endosome
Things that Rab5 recruits
- EEA1 - a tethering protein
- VPS45 - a SNARE regulator
- Rab7 GEF
- Motor proteins for positioning on microtubules
- Lipid kinases (PtdIns 3-kinase)
PtdIns(3)P
Rab5 recruits PtdIns 3-kinase to early endosomes. PtdIns 3-kinase is generated. It recruits effectors with PtdIns(3)P binding domains - FYVE domains, PX domains.
Present almost exclusively on early endosomal membranes
3 is lucky, as would be an early end to this lecture…
PtdIns(4,5)P2
Enriched in patches at plasma membrane. Recruits or modulates endocytic machinery. Major regulator of actin dynamics.
PtdIns(4)P
Enriched at the golgi, required for secretion.
4 is unlucky, Gollum is also unlucky.
PtdIns(3,5)P2
Generated on endosomes by PtdIns(3)P 5 kinase - required for late endosomal maturation and autophagy.
3 - endosomal
5 - last number, so late.
