Barlow1, Eva Nývltová2,3, Maria Aguilar1, Jan Tachezy2 and Joel B. Dacks1,4* Abstract Background: The Golgi apparatus is a central meeting point for the endocytic and exocytic systems in eukaryotic cells, and the organelle’s dysfunction results in human disease. Its characteristic morphology of multiple differentiated compartments organized into stacked flattened cisternae is one of the most recognizable features of modern eukaryotic cells, and yet how this is maintained is not well understood. The Golgi is also an ancient aspect of eukaryotes, but the extent and nature of its complexity in the ancestor of eukaryotes is unclear. Various proteins have roles in organizing the Golgi, chief among them being the golgins. Results: We address Golgi evolution by analyzing genome sequences from organisms which have lost stacked cisternae as a feature of their Golgi and those that have not. Using genomics and immunomicroscopy, we first identify Golgi in the anaerobic amoeba Mastigamoeba balamuthi. We then searched 87 genomes spanning eukaryotic diversity for presence of the most prominent proteins implicated in Golgi structure, focusing on golgins. We show some candidates as animal specific and others as ancestral to eukaryotes. Conclusions: None of the proteins examined show a phyletic distribution that correlates with the morphology of stacked cisternae, suggesting the possibility of stacking as an emergent property. Strikingly, however, the combination of golgins conserved among diverse eukaryotes allows for the most detailed reconstruction of the organelle to date, showing a sophisticated Golgi with differentiated compartments and trafficking pathways in the common eukaryotic ancestor.

Read Full License Page 1/25 Abstract Blood–brain barrier (BBB) impairment after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) can lead to secondary brain injury and aggravate neurological decits. Currently, there are no effective methods for its prevention or treatment partly because of to our lack of understanding of the mechanism of ICH injury to the BBB. Here, we explored the role of Golgi apparatus protein GM130 in the BBB and neurological function after ICH. The levels of the tight junction-associated proteins ZO-1 and occludin decreased, whereas those of LC3-II, an autophagosome marker, increased in hemin-treated Bend.3 cells (p < 0.05). Additionally, GM130 overexpression increased ZO-1 and occludin levels, while decreasing LC3-II levels (p < 0.05). GM130 silencing reversed these effects and mimicked the effect of hemin treatment (p < 0.05). Moreover, tight junctions were disrupted after hemin treatment or GM130 silencing and repaired by GM130 overexpression. GM130 silencing in Bend.3 cells increased autophagic ux, whereas GM130 overexpression downregulated this activity. Furthermore, GM130 silencing-induced tight junction disruption was partially restored by 3-methyladenine (an autophagy inhibitor) administration.

  • Unconventional Secretion Factor GRASP55 Is Increased by Pharmacological Unfolded Protein Response Inducers in Neurons
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Unconventional secretion factor GRASP55 is increased by pharmacological unfolded protein Received: 6 July 2018 Accepted: 19 December 2018 response inducers in neurons Published: xx xx xxxx Anna Maria van Ziel1,2, Pablo Largo-Barrientos1, Kimberly Wolzak1, Matthijs Verhage1,2 & Wiep Scheper1,2,3 Accumulation of misfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), defned as ER stress, results in activation of the unfolded protein response (UPR). UPR activation is commonly observed in neurodegenerative diseases. ER stress can trigger unconventional secretion mediated by Golgi reassembly and stacking proteins (GRASP) relocalization in cell lines. Here we study the regulation of GRASP55 by the UPR upon pharmacological induction of ER stress in primary mouse neurons. We demonstrate that UPR activation induces mRNA and protein expression of GRASP55, but not GRASP65, in cortical neurons. UPR activation does not result in relocalization of GRASP55. UPR- induced GRASP55 expression is reduced by inhibition of the PERK pathway of the UPR and abolished by inhibition of the endonuclease activity of the UPR transducer IRE1. Expression of the IRE1 target XBP1s in the absence of ER stress is not sufcient to increase GRASP55 expression. Knockdown of GRASP55 afects neither induction nor recovery of the UPR. We conclude that the UPR regulates the unconventional secretion factor GRASP55 via a mechanism that requires the IRE1 and the PERK pathway of the UPR in neurons. Since neurons are non-proliferative and secretory cells, protein homeostasis or proteostasis is of great importance and hence tightly regulated. Te endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a vital organelle for protein synthesis, folding and posttranslational modifcations of proteins destined for the secretory pathway.

  • Misfolded GPI-Anchored Proteins Are Escorted Through the Secretory Pathway by ER-Derived Factors Eszter Zavodszky, Ramanujan S Hegde*
    RESEARCH ARTICLE Misfolded GPI-anchored proteins are escorted through the secretory pathway by ER-derived factors Eszter Zavodszky, Ramanujan S Hegde* MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Cambridge, United Kingdom Abstract We have used misfolded prion protein (PrP*) as a model to investigate how mammalian cells recognize and degrade misfolded GPI-anchored proteins. While most misfolded membrane proteins are degraded by proteasomes, misfolded GPI-anchored proteins are primarily degraded in lysosomes. Quantitative flow cytometry analysis showed that at least 85% of PrP* molecules transiently access the plasma membrane en route to lysosomes. Unexpectedly, time- resolved quantitative proteomics revealed a remarkably invariant PrP* interactome during its trafficking from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to lysosomes. Hence, PrP* arrives at the plasma membrane in complex with ER-derived chaperones and cargo receptors. These interaction partners were critical for rapid endocytosis because a GPI-anchored protein induced to misfold at the cell surface was not recognized effectively for degradation. Thus, resident ER factors have post-ER itineraries that not only shield misfolded GPI-anchored proteins during their trafficking, but also provide a quality control cue at the cell surface for endocytic routing to lysosomes.

  • Regulation of Protein Glycosylation and Sorting by the Golgi Matrix Proteins GRASP55/65
    ARTICLE Received 10 Oct 2012 | Accepted 27 Feb 2013 | Published 3 Apr 2013 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms2669 Regulation of protein glycosylation and sorting by the Golgi matrix proteins GRASP55/65 Yi Xiang1,*, Xiaoyan Zhang1,*, David B. Nix2,3, Toshihiko Katoh2, Kazuhiro Aoki2, Michael Tiemeyer2,3 & Yanzhuang Wang1 The Golgi receives the entire output of newly synthesized cargo from the endoplasmic reticulum, processes it in the stack largely through modification of bound oligosaccharides, and sorts it in the trans-Golgi network. GRASP65 and GRASP55, two proteins localized to the Golgi stack and early secretory pathway, mediate processes including Golgi stacking, Golgi ribbon linking and unconventional secretion. Previously, we have shown that GRASP depletion in cells disrupts Golgi stack formation. Here we report that knockdown of the GRASP proteins, alone or combined, accelerates protein trafficking through the Golgi membranes but also has striking negative effects on protein glycosylation and sorting. These effects are not caused by Golgi ribbon unlinking, unconventional secretion or endoplasmic reticulum stress. We propose that GRASP55/65 are negative regulators of exocytic transport and that this slowdown helps to ensure more complete protein glycosylation in the Golgi stack and proper sorting at the trans-Golgi network. 1 Department of Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology, University of Michigan, 830 North University Avenue, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109-1048, USA. 2 The Complex Carbohydrate Research Center, University of Georgia, 315 Riverbend Road, Athens, Georgia 30602-4712, USA. 3 The Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, B122 Life Sciences Building, University of Georgia, Athens, Georgia 30602-5016, USA. * These authors contributed equally to this work.
