Mixed and Non-cognate SNARE Complexes
Assembly of soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion attachment protein receptor (SNARE) proteins between two opposing membranes is thought to be the key event that initiates membrane fusion. Many new SNARE proteins have recently been localized to distinct intracellular compartments, supporting the view that sets of specific SNAREs are specialized for distinct trafficking steps. We have now in...
متن کاملThe crystal structure of EcoRV endonuclease and of its complexes with cognate and non-cognate DNA fragments.
The crystal structure of EcoRV endonuclease has been determined at 2.5 A resolution and that of its complexes with the cognate DNA decamer GGGATATCCC (recognition sequence underlined) and the non-cognate DNA octamer CGAGCTCG at 3.0 A resolution. Two octamer duplexes of the non-cognate DNA, stacked end-to-end, are bound to the dimeric enzyme in B-DNA-like conformations. The protein--DNA interact...
متن کاملCOG complexes form spatial landmarks for distinct SNARE complexes
Vesicular tethers and SNAREs (soluble N-ethylmalemide-sensitive fusion attachment protein receptors) are two key protein components of the intracellular membrane-trafficking machinery. The conserved oligomeric Golgi (COG) complex has been implicated in the tethering of retrograde intra-Golgi vesicles. Here, using yeast two-hybrid and co-immunoprecipitation approaches, we show that three COG sub...
متن کاملSec17p and HOPS, in distinct SNARE complexes, mediate SNARE complex disruption or assembly for fusion.
SNARE functions during membrane docking and fusion are regulated by Sec1/Munc18 (SM) chaperones and Rab/Ypt GTPase effectors. These functions for yeast vacuole fusion are combined in the six-subunit HOPS complex. HOPS facilitates Ypt7p nucleotide exchange, is a Ypt7p effector, and contains an SM protein. We have dissected the associations and requirements for HOPS, Ypt7p, and Sec17/18p during S...
متن کاملAssembly and Comparison of Plasma Membrane SNARE Acceptor Complexes.
Neuronal exocytotic membrane fusion occurs on a fast timescale and is dependent on interactions between the vesicle SNARE synaptobrevin-2 and the plasma membrane SNAREs syntaxin-1a and SNAP-25 with a 1:1:1 stoichiometry. Reproducing fast fusion rates as observed in cells by reconstitution in vitro has been hindered by the spontaneous assembly of a 2:1 syntaxin-1a:SNAP-25 complex on target membr...
