Chapter 12 • Intracellular Compartments and Protein Sorting 張學偉 助理教授
All eucaryotic cells have the same basic set of membrane-enclosed organelles
The major intracellular compartments of an animal cells. Cytoplasma = cytosol + cytoplasmic organelles
The topological relationships of membrane-enclosed organelles can be interpreted in terms of their evolutionary origins
Sorting signal by signal sequences
Signal sequences and signal patches direct proteins to the correct cellular address
Cut by signal peptidases Sorting signal (signal sequences) recognize by sorting receptors
N-terminal signal C-terminal signal Red + Green - Yellow Hydrophobic Blue hydroxylated
The transport of molecules between the nucleus and the cytosol
Composed by more than 50 different proteins called nucleoporins.
26nm 15nm 9nm size
Nuclear localization signals (NLS) direct nuclear proteins to the nucleus
Colloidal gold spheres coated with peptides containing NLS Nuclear pore transport (large aqueous pore) is fundmental different from organelle transport (lipid bilayer).
Nuclear import receptors bind nuclear localization signals and nucleoporins
Nuclear import do not always bind to nuclear proteins directly. Soluble cytosolic protein FG-repeat (Phe-Gly) serve as binding sites for the import receptors.
Nuclear export works like nuclear import, but in reverse Nuclear export signals & nuclear export receptor & nuclear transport receptor (karypherins) tRNA or 5S RNA: nuclei cytosol NLS-particle: cytosol nuclei
The Ran GTPase drives directional transport through nuclear pore complexes
Ran = GTPase GAP = GTPase-activing protein GEF = Guanine exchange factor
Transport between the nucleus and cytosol can be regulated by controlling access to the transport machinery Always in & out, shuttling
Dorsol protein Ventral side The control fly embryo development by nuclear transport
The transport of proteins into mitochondria and chloroplasts
Newly mito & chloropl are produced by the growth of preexisting organelle. Their growth depends mainly on the cytosolic protein import
Translocation into the mitochondrial matrix depends on a signal sequence and protein translocators
Red = + Yellow = nonpolar On different side Amphipathic a helix
