The appearance of an endomembrane trafficking system was a key event in evolution for the prokaryote-to-eukaryote transition (see review (Dacks and Field, 2007)). The evolution of this trafficking system has been critical for the emergence and diversification of complex cell types such as neurons, and organisms such as humans. For example, it is required for neuronal development and function, mediating cell fate decisions, cell migration, axon outgrowth and polarity (see review (Yap and Winckler, 2012)). The endolysosomal system maintains cell homeostasis by cargo sorting, degradation and recycling. Different endolysosomal compartments are distinguished based on their function, molecular composition and structure (Figure 1 and Table 1). This distinction between compartments is very useful to study the endolysosomal system; however, it is important to note that they are not fixed and separate entities. Instead, they are extremely dynamic with constant exchange of material and with highly overlapping features. Both the endolysosomal molecular machinery and ultrastructure are used to define endolysosomal compartments (Table 1). Rab proteins are widely used as organelle markers, including different endolysosomal compartments. Rab proteins are a family of small monomeric GTPases part of the RAS superfamily which regulate membrane trafficking by recruiting effector proteins in a GTP-bound conformation (see review (Stenmark, 2009)). On the early endosome, Rab4 and Rab5 mediate early endosomal fusion and biogenesis. On recycling endosomes, Rab11 is involved in trafficking cargo to the plasma membrane. On late endosomal compartments, Rab7 is involved in endosomal maturation, lysosome biogenesis and trafficking cargo away from the late endosome (see review (Galvez et al., 2012)). Phosphoinositides are phosphorylated forms of phosphatidylinositol (PI) that are also differently distributed on the endolysosomal membranes and regulate membrane trafficking. PI(3)P is enriched on early endosome membranes, while PI(4)P is on recycling endosomes and PI(3,5)P2 on late endosomes. In the lysosomal membrane, several phosphoinositides coexist including PI(3)P, PI(4) P, and PI(4,5)P2 (see review (Wallroth and Haucke, 2018)). Other transmembrane or membrane associated proteins are frequently used to label the different endolysosomal compartments. For example, early endosome antigen 1 (EEA1) is used to label early endosomes because it localizes to early endosomal membranes to mediate endosome docking and fusion (Christoforidis et al., 1999a). Tetraspanin CD63 is used to label late endosomes/multivesicular bodies (MVBs) because it is highly enriched on intraluminal vesicles (ILVs) in MVB (see review (Pols and Klumperman, 2009)). For lysosomes, there are mainly three transmembrane proteins used as molecular markers due to their 8 General introduction Endoplasmic Nucleus reticulum 1 Golgi apparatus Lysosome trans-Golgi network MVB Early Endolysosome endosome Endocytic Recycling vesicle endosome Plasma membrane Exosomes Extracellular space Figure 1: Simplified schema of the main endolysosomal compartments and pathways: biosynthesis (purple arrows), recycling (green arrows) and degradation (blue arrows). Cargo (black dot) is defined as transmembrane proteins, their lipids and associated proteins. In the biosynthetic pathway, membrane proteins are synthesized on the endoplasmic reticulum, transported and modified at the Golgi apparatus, and sorted in the trans-Golgi network (purple arrows). In the retrograde pathway, endocytic vesicles from the plasma membrane fuse with early endosomes, where the fate of the cargo is determined: the endocytic cargo will be degraded or recycled. If the cargo is recycled, it will be sorted in membrane tubules which emanate from the endosome to other cell compartments such as the trans-Golgi network, the recycling endosome or directly to the plasma membrane. If the cargo is degraded, it will be included in the intraluminal vesicles inside the early endosome which accumulate during the process of maturation to late endosome. The late endosome or multivesicular body (MVB) fuses with the lysosome forming a hybrid organelle called endolysosome, in which degradation takes place. After that, the endolysosome can mature to a lysosome. Alternatively, the multivesicular body can fuse with the plasma membrane to release its content (black arrow). When the intraluminal vesicles are release to the extracellular space, they are called exosomes. 9 Chapter 1 predominantly lysosomal membrane localization: the lysosome-associated membrane protein 1 (LAMP1), involved in lysosomal stability, integrity and exocytosis (see review (Saftig and Klumperman, 2009)), the lysosome-associated membrane protein 2 (LAMP2), involved in chaperone-mediated autophagy (see review (Saftig and Klumperman, 2009)) and the lysosomal integral membrane protein 2 (LIMP2) which is a receptor for lysosomal transport of the acid hydrolase β-glucocerebrosidase (GC) (see review (Gonzalez et al., 2014)). Other molecules used to define endolysosomes are based on their function such as DQTM Red-BSA which produces a bright fluorescent product when it is hydrolyzed (Bright et al., 2016). An alternative approach to discern between distinct endosolysosomal compartments is the ultrastructural analysis by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), which provides the high resolution required to resolve the complex membrane structure of the endolysosomal system (see Table1 and review (Klumperman and Raposo, 2014)). 1 General sorting mechanism and machineries The biosynthetic and retrograde pathway converge in the early endosome. The early endosomes constitute a sorting station in which cargo is sorted for degradation or retrieved to be targeted to a different location. To assure specificity in cargo sorting, the endosolysosomal system faces two main challenges: recognizing the fate of each cargo and separating it from neighboring cargo that needs to be trafficked by a distinct pathway. This specificity is achieved through the coordinated action of proteins, which can be viewed as molecular machineries constituted by protein sub-complexes. Here, we will review the general endosomal sorting principles using the retromer-mediated sorting machinery as an example. Other protein sub-complexes follow similar principles including retriever-mediated sorting or ESCRT sorting (see Figure 4) (see review (McNally and Cullen, 2018)). Briefly, in the early endosomal membrane there is both cargo which needs to be recycled and which needs to be degraded. Cargos contain a sorting signal which is recognized by cargo-recognition

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.

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.

    BASIC RESEARCH www.jasn.org The Sorting Nexin 3 Retromer Pathway Regulates the Cell Surface Localization and Activity of a Wnt- Activated Polycystin Channel Complex † ‡ † Shuang Feng,* Andrew J. Streets,* Vasyl Nesin, Uyen Tran, Hongguang Nie, † ‡ † Marta Onopiuk, Oliver Wessely, Leonidas Tsiokas, and Albert C.M. Ong* *Kidney Genetics Group, Academic Nephrology Unit and the Bateson Centre, Department of Infection, Immunity and Cardiovascular Disease, University of Sheffield Medical School, Sheffield, United Kingdom; †Department of Cell Biology, University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; and ‡Department of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Lerner Research Institute, Cleveland Clinic Foundation, Cleveland, Ohio ABSTRACT Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is caused by inactivating mutations in PKD1 (85%) or PKD2 (15%). The ADPKD proteins encoded by these genes, polycystin-1 (PC1) and polycystin-2 (PC2), form a plasma membrane receptor–ion channel complex. However, the mechanisms controlling the sub- cellular localization of PC1 and PC2 are poorly understood. Here, we investigated the involvement of the retromer complex, an ancient protein module initially discovered in yeast that regulates the retrieval, sorting, and retrograde transport of membrane receptors. Using yeast two-hybrid, biochemical, and cel- lular assays, we determined that PC2 binds two isoforms of the retromer-associated protein sorting nexin 3 (SNX3), including a novel isoform that binds PC2 in a direct manner. Knockdown of SNX3 or the core retromer protein VPS35 increased the surface expression of endogenous PC1 and PC2 in vitro and in vivo and increased Wnt-activated PC2-dependent whole-cell currents. These findings indicate that an SNX3- retromer complex regulates the surface expression and function of PC1 and PC2.

Paul, Lorenzo Frigerio ∗ Department of Biological Sciences, University of Warwick, Coventry CV4 7AL, United Kingdom Available online 10 July 2007 Abstract Coated vesicles represent vital transport intermediates in all eukaryotic cells. While the basic mechanisms of membrane exchange are conserved through the kingdoms, the unique topology of the plant endomembrane system is mirrored by several differences in the genesis, function and regulation of coated vesicles. Efforts to unravel the complex network of proteins underlying the behaviour of these vesicles have recently benefited from the application in planta of several molecular tools used in mammalian systems, as well as from advances in imaging technology and the ongoing analysis of the Arabidopsis genome. In this review, we provide an overview of the roles of coated vesicles in plant cells and highlight salient new developments in the field. © 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
