Recent work has led to significant progress in vesicles, giving it the name multivesicular body (MVB). From understanding the role of Arabidopsis retromer subunits in recycling the TGN, proteins performing functions in the tonoplast or in the vacuolar sorting receptors and plasma membrane proteins. As a vacuole, or those targeted for vacuolar degradation, pass through the consequence, members of the sorting nexin (SNX) protein family and MVB (Fig. 1). The MVB was shown to originate from the TGN their interaction partners have emerged as critical protein trafficking (Scheuring et al., 2011), supporting the idea that endomembrane regulators, in particular with regard to adaptation to environmental compartments represent continuous stages, rather than static structures change, such as temperature fluctuations and nutrient deficiency.

However, it needs to be noted that other this Review, we discuss the known and proposed functions of the transport routes are known, such as secretion from the Golgi to the PM comparatively small Arabidopsis SNX protein family.

This family of proteins is unified by their characteristic phox (PX) phosphoinositides binding domain. Along with binding to membranes, this family of SNXs also comprises a diverse array of protein-protein interaction motifs that are required for cellular sorting and protein trafficking. SNXs play a role in maintaining the integrity of the proteome which is essential for regulating multiple fundamental processes such as cell cycle progression, transcription, metabolism, and stress response. To tightly regulate these processes proteins must be expressed and degraded in the correct location and at the correct time. The cell employs several proteolysis mechanisms to ensure that proteins are selectively degraded at the appropriate spatiotemporal conditions. SNXs play a role in ubiquitin-mediated protein homeostasis at multiple levels including cargo localization, recycling, degradation, and function. In this review, we will discuss the role of SNXs in three different protein homeostasis systems: endocytosis lysosomal, the ubiquitin-proteasomal, and the autophagy-lysosomal system. The highly conserved nature of this protein family by beginning with the early research on SNXs and protein trafficking in yeast and lead into their important roles in mammalian systems.

Ubiquitin is recognized by a series of complexes that operate at a number of vesicle transport steps. Ubiquitin serves as a sorting signal for internalization at the plasma membrane and is the major signal for incorporation into intraluminal vesicles of multivesicular late endosomes. The sorting machineries that catalyze these steps can bind Ub via a variety of Ub-binding domains. At the same time, many of these complexes are themselves ubiquitinated, thus providing a plethora of potential mechanisms to regulate their activity. Here we provide an overview of how membrane proteins are selected for ubiquitination and deubiquitination within the endocytic pathway and how that ubiquitin signal is interpreted by endocytic sorting machineries.

The textbook view of proteins being sorted at the post-Golgi level to the lytic vacuole via the pre-vacuole or to the protein storage vacuole mediated by dense vesicles is now challenged as novel routes are being disclosed and vacuoles with intermediate characteristics described. The identification of Vacuolar Sorting Determinants is a key signature to understand protein trafficking to the vacuole. Despite the long established vacuolar signals, some others have been described in the last few years, with different properties that can be specific for some cells or some types of vacuoles.

Abstract Retromer is a protein sorting device that orchestrates the selection and export of integral membrane proteins from the endosome via retrograde and plasma membrane recycling pathways. Long standing hypotheses regarding the Retromer sorting mechanism posit that oligomeric interactions between Retromer and associated accessory factors on the endosome membrane drives clustering of Retromer-bound integral membrane cargo prior to its packaging into a nascent transport carrier.

Transport of the receptors proteins, allowing them to accumulate in the nucleus and acti- from the plasma membrane to endosomes has been proposed to vate or repress target gene transcription. The DBL-1 signal is promote TGFβ signal transduction and shape BMP-signaling gra- received by SMA-6/DAF-4 complexes expressed in the hypo- dients throughout development. However, how postendocytic dermis, intestine, and other peripheral tissues. trafficking of BMP receptors contributes to the regulation of signal Some studies of TGFβ trafficking and signaling in mammalian transduction has remained enigmatic. Here we report that the in- Mv1Lu cells have indicated that TGFβ signaling requires cla- tracellular domain of Caenorhabditis elegans BMP type I receptor thrin-mediated internalization of activated receptors to trans- SMA-6 (small-6) binds to the retromer complex, and in retromer duce signals to the nucleus via SMADs, presumably because mutants, SMA-6 is degraded because of its missorting to lysosomes.
