Protein Trafficking Through Endomembranes
Cisternae: series of elongated , fact sacs that compromise Golgi complex
Proteins are transported to the Golgi trans-cisternae via vesicles
Exocytosis: A process when vesicles fuse with the cell membrane to release proteins from the cell
The constitutive secretory pathway is used by proteins that are released immediately after
protein synthesis and transport
The secretory vesicles move straight from the trans-Golgi to the cell membrane
Regulated Secretory pathway: used by proteins that are kept in the cell until a signal
triggers release
Secretory Granules: secretory vesicle held in the cell
Other proteins are carried away from the Golgi trans-cisternae in vesicle to form the lysosome
These vesicles will fuse with endosomes
Endosomes: vesicles formed at the cell membrane; captures and transport
macromolecules from outside of the cell
Golgi Complex
Distinguish the membrane of the Golgi complex from the membrane of other organelles?
Fluorescently-labeled wheat germ agglutinin is used to recognize the Golgi complex
Wheat germ agglutinin: a lectin that recognizes N-linked polysaccharides found in the Golgi
cisternae
Golgi Cisternae
Golgi complex: contains a series of elongated vesicles sac; cisternae
Cis-Golgi network: a collection of coalescing vesicles emanating from ER to form the cis-
cisternae
Medial cisternae: in the middle of the complex
Trans-cisternae; furthest from the ER and these break out into vesicles to form the trans-
Golgi network
Entire complex is very dynamic with vesicles fusing to form new cisternae
Cisternae change shape and move up through the complex
Cisternae themselves contain resident proteins that are necessary for further PTM of
transported proteins
Anterograde Transport Through the Golgi complex
Anterograde Transport: movement of proteins from the Er to the cell membrane
Means moving in normal or forward direction
Proteins must go through Golgi complex before they reach their destination
Models of Anterograde Transport
Model A: vesicles carrying proteins cargo move from cis- to medial-cisternae and from
medial- to trans-cisternae
Model B: proteins stay in cisternae but that the cisternae themselves are moving forward
through the Golgi complex
Still requires the use of vesicles that move backwards
Proteins in the Golgi Complex
Cell membrane protein: is found only in the cisternal sacs, but not in any associated vesicles
Suggestion: vesicles are not required for anterograde movement
Alternative: proteins stay in a cisterna as it moves forward through the complex
Resident Medial-Golgi Protein: should only be found in the medial-Golgi

If the cisternae are moving through the Golgi-complex, a medial-Golgi cisterna would
eventually move to the position of a trans-Golgi cisterna
While cargo has moved in the anterograde direction, medial-Golgi resident proteins are
mislocalized
Retrograde direction in vesicles → re-sorting of proteins
We can see the antibodies to the medial-Golgi protein in the medial Golgi cisternae, also identify
vesicles containing the protein → consistent with Model B
Model B is aka Cisternal Progression Model
Animation of Cisternal Maturation
Implications of this model: new cis-cisternae will be formed by coalescing vesicles from ER
That the trans-Golgi network will dissipate into secretory vesicles
And that Golgi-resident proteins will be mislocalized
Vesicles are used to resort Golgi proteins in the retrograde direction as the bulk of the proteins
are cargo being transported in the anterograde direction
Cisternal Maturation of Cisternal Progression
Illustrates the maturation of the Golgi cisternae carrying protein cargo en masse in the
anterograde direction
At trans-Golgi network, vesicles form that carry cargo to their next destination
Protein Trafficking Requires Vesicles
The movie reveals the movement of vesicles
The fluorescence is following a secreted protein in the ER, Golgi and then in secretory
vesicles that leave the Golgi
Transport Vesicle Formation and Function
Four steps to consider about vesicular trafficking:
1) Budding: buds arise from the membrane of the donor compartment
2) Loading: cargo proteins are loaded into buds via cargo signal sequences and receptors
3) Vesicle formation and release
4) Vesicle docking and fusion to membranes of the ‘recipient’ compartment
Three Types of Coated Vesicles
There are clathrin-coated vesicles and the COPI and COPII coated vesicles
All of these are small GTP binding proteins with GTPase activity
G-protein bind to nucleotides GTP and GDP
The protein is active when it is bound to GTP: G-proteins have an internal GTPase
activity that can hydrolyze the GTP to form GDP
Inactive when it’s bound to GDP
Activation/inactivation require GTPase mediated hydrolysis of GTP and GDP
Assisted by GAP (GTPase accelerating protein)
Inactive → active : requires displacement of GDP and its replacement by GTP
Assisted by a guanine exchange factor (GEF)
Functions of Each Type of Vesicle
The three types of coated vesicles are required at different point in the vesicular transport process
Clathrin-coated vesicles: are required for transport way from the trans-Golgi network to the
endosome and to the cell membrane
Also used in the process of endocytosis: uses the cell membrane to transport
macromolecules into the cell
COP I Coated Vesicles: used specifically for retrograde transport; Golgi back → the ER
COP II Coated Vesicles: required for transport from the RER to the cis-Golgi network

Document Summary

Cisternae: series of elongated , fact sacs that compromise golgi complex. Proteins are transported to the golgi trans-cisternae via vesicles. Exocytosis: a process when vesicles fuse with the cell membrane to release proteins from the cell. The constitutive secretory pathway is used by proteins that are released immediately after protein synthesis and transport. The secretory vesicles move straight from the trans-golgi to the cell membrane. Regulated secretory pathway: used by proteins that are kept in the cell until a signal triggers release. Secretory granules: secretory vesicle held in the cell. Other proteins are carried away from the golgi trans-cisternae in vesicle to form the lysosome. Endosomes: vesicles formed at the cell membrane; captures and transport macromolecules from outside of the cell. Fluorescently-labeled wheat germ agglutinin is used to recognize the golgi complex. Wheat germ agglutinin: a lectin that recognizes n-linked polysaccharides found in the golgi cisternae. Golgi complex: contains a series of elongated vesicles sac; cisternae.
