Leaving the Cell: Vesicular Trafficking Through Endomembrane System
Protein Trafficking Through Endomembrane
proteins travel as cargo with vesicles from Golgi complex -> cell membrane
proteins travel as cargo with vesicle from ER -> Golgi complex
Golgi complex made of elongated flat sacs called cisternae
vesicles transport proteins from ER -> cis-cisternae
transport away from trans-cisternae
constitutive secretory pathway used by proteins released after protein synthesis/
transport
regulated secretory pathway used by proteins kept in cell until signal triggers
release
secretory granules = secretory vesicles held in cell
Golgi Cisternae
Golgi not single organelle - has elongated vesicle sacs called cisternae
closest to ER = cis-cisterne
furthest = trans-cisternae - break into vesicles to form trans-Golgi network
movement of proteins from ER to cell membrane = anterograde transport
aka moving in forward direction
Models of Anterograde Transport - Transport Through Golgi
Model A (vesicular transport model) - suggests vesicles
carrying protein cargo move from cis -> medial -> trans
cisternae
Model B (Maturation model) - suggests proteins stay in
cisternae but cisternae moves forward through Golgi complex
Protein in Golgi Apparatus
labeling different proteins and following their movement in cell lets us
see pattern of movement
top image = antibody to cell membrane protein - expect anterograde
transport through Golgi to target
membrane protein found in cisternal sacs only with no vesicle
association - means vesicles not required for anterograde movement
bottom image = antibody to resident medial-Golgi protein - expect
movement to trans-Golgi cisterna
cargo has moved anterograde but proteins mis-localized - requires
resorting proteins in retrograde direction in vesicles
both observations consistent with model B
implications of cisternal maturation:
new cis-Golgi cisternae are formed by vesicles from ER
trans-Golgi cisternae dissipate into transport vesicles
Golgi resident proteins must be resorted in anterograde direction
Golgi cisternae containing cargo move in anterograde direction!
Transport Vesicle Formation and Function
Step 1: vesicle forms by a process called budding; buds arise from membrane of donor compartment
Step 2: cargo proteins are loaded into buds via cargo signal sequences and receptors
Step 3: vesicles formation and release
Step 4: vesicle docking and fusion to membrane of the recipient compartment
Golgi Complex - wheat germ
agglutinin, specific for N-
linked polysaccharides

Document Summary

Leaving the cell: vesicular traf cking through endomembrane system. Protein trafficking through endomembrane proteins travel as cargo with vesicles from golgi complex -> cell membrane proteins travel as cargo with vesicle from er -> golgi complex. Golgi not single organelle - has elongated vesicle sacs called cisternae closest to er = cis-cisterne furthest = trans-cisternae - break into vesicles to form trans-golgi network movement of proteins from er to cell membrane = anterograde transport. Golgi complex - wheat germ agglutinin, speci c for n- linked polysaccharides aka moving in forward direction. Models of anterograde transport - transport through golgi. Model a (vesicular transport model) - suggests vesicles carrying protein cargo move from cis -> medial -> trans cisternae. Model b (maturation model) - suggests proteins stay in cisternae but cisternae moves forward through golgi complex. Golgi resident proteins must be resorted in anterograde direction. Golgi cisternae containing cargo move in anterograde direction!
