Resumen
Las proteínas de levadura COPII y COPI forman distintas vesículas de transporte desde la envoltura nuclear. Estas vesículas, cruciales para el transporte de proteínas, se generan independientemente de las proteínas residentes en el retículo endoplasmático.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Biología celular Biología celular.
- Biología Molecular Biología Molecular
- El transporte de proteínas en transporte.
Sus antecedentes:
- Se sabe que la capa COPII, compuesta por Sec13p-Sec31p, Sec23p-Sec24p y Sar1p, genera vesículas de transporte de proteínas.
- La capa COPI, que incluye coatómero y Arf1p, también media el transporte vesicular.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Para investigar la formación de las vesículas COPI y COPII de la envoltura nuclear de la levadura.
- Determinar las distintas funciones y características de las vías de transporte mediadas por COPI y COPII.
Principales métodos:
- Se emplearon microscopía de sección delgada e inmunoelectrónica para visualizar la formación de vesículas.
- Se realizó un análisis del contenido de las vesículas y la sensibilidad a la brefeldina A.
Principales resultados:
- Los componentes COPII purificados formaron directamente vesículas de transporte a partir de núcleos de levadura aislados.
- Los componentes COPI también formaron cogollos y vesículas recubiertas de la envoltura nuclear.
- La formación de vesículas mediada por COPI fue inhibida por la brefeldina A, mientras que la COPII no lo fue.
- Ambos tipos de vesículas carecían de proteínas residentes en ER, pero contenían proteínas de orientación de Golgi.
Conclusiones:
- COPI y COPII median vías de transporte vesiculares separadas que se originan en el retículo endoplasmático.
- Estas vías utilizan distintas poblaciones de vesículas con carga específica y maquinaria de orientación.

01:33Overview of Secretory Vesicles
8.8K
Secretory vesicles, also known as dense core vesicles (DCVs), are membrane-bound vesicles that transport secretory proteins, such as hormones or neurotransmitters. Regulated secretory vesicles transport proteins from the trans-Golgi network to the exterior of the cell. Proteins present in regulated secretory vesicles are required to be rapidly exocytosed in large amounts upon a specific stimulus.
Various proteins regulate the aggregation of molecules inside the secretory vesicles. Chromogranins...

00:59COP Coated Vesicles
12.6K
Membrane-enclosed structures called vesicles transport proteins and lipids across the cell. The vesicles derive their cargo from the plasma membrane, Golgi, ER, or endosome. Coated vesicles are spherical, protein-coated carriers with a 50–100 nm diameter that mediate bidirectional transport between the ER and the Golgi. The distribution of proteins between the ER and Golgi complex is dynamic and is maintained by different coated vesicles. Their formation is driven by the assembly of...

01:32Pinching-off of Coated Vesicles
3.1K
Vesicle budding is orchestrated by distinct cytosolic proteins such as adaptor proteins, coat proteins, and GTPases. To initiate vesicle budding, membrane-bending proteins containing crescent-shaped BAR domains bind to the lipid heads in the bilayer and distort the membrane to form a protein-coated vesicle bud. Adaptors proteins such as AP2 for clathrin-coated vesicles can nucleate on the deformed membrane. Finally, coat proteins such as clathrin or COPI and COPII assemble into a coat forming...

01:33Coat Assembly and GTPases
3.5K
Vesicles incorporate different coat protein subunits in different cell locations, which changes the properties of the coat, such as the shape and geometry of the transport vesicles. Thus, vesicle coat proteins also play a significant role in cargo selection.
Coat assembly depends on the local availability of phosphatidylinositol phosphates or PIPs and GTP-binding proteins. Adaptor proteins, which link the coat proteins to the membrane, bind to these PIPs and play a crucial role in controlling...

01:45Vesicular Tubular Clusters
2.4K
After budding out from the ER membrane, some COPII vesicles lose their coat and fuse with one another to form larger vesicles and interconnected tubules called vesicular tubular clusters or VTCs. These clusters constitute a compartment at the ER-Golgi interface known as ERGIC (Endoplasmic Reticulum Golgi Intermediate Compartment). The ERGIC is a mobile membrane-bound cargo transport system that sorts proteins secreted from ER and delivers them to the Golgi.

8.1K
Clathrin-coated vesicles use endocytosis to transport receptors and lysosomal hydrolases from the Golgi to the lysosome in the late secretory pathway. Clathrin-mediated endocytosis was the first described endocytic process, and Clathrin-coated vesicles remain one of the most well-studied transport vesicles. The molecular machinery that generates clathrin-coated vesicles comprises over 50 proteins that precisely coordinate vesicle formation. Cell surface receptors concentrated in indented sites...
