Abstract
In biology, the modern scientific fashion is to mostly study proteins. Much less attention is paid to lipids. However, lipids themselves are extremely important for the formation and functioning of cellular membrane organelles. Here, the role of the geometry of the lipid bilayer in regulation of organelle shape is analyzed. It is proposed that during rapid shape transition, the number of lipid heads and their size (i.e., due to the change in lipid head charge) inside lipid leaflets modulates the geometrical properties of organelles, in particular their membrane curvature. Insertion of proteins into a lipid bilayer and the shape of protein trans-membrane domains also affect the trans-membrane asymmetry between surface areas of luminal and cytosol leaflets of the membrane. In the cases where lipid molecules with a specific shape are not predominant, the shape of lipids (cylindrical, conical, or wedge-like) is less important for the regulation of membrane curvature, due to the flexibility of their acyl chains and their high ability to diffuse.

Abstract
Intracellular transport is one of the most confusing issues in the field of cell biology. Many different models and their combinations have been proposed to explain the experimental data on intracellular transport. Here, we analyse the data related to the mechanisms of endoplasmic reticulum-to-Golgi and intra-Golgi transport from the point of view of the main models of intracellular transport; namely: the vesicular model, the diffusion model, the compartment maturation–progression model, and the kiss-and-run model. This review initially describes our current understanding of Golgi function, while highlighting the recent progress that has been made. It then continues to discuss the outstanding questions and potential avenues for future research with regard to the models of these transport steps. To compare the power of these models, we have applied the method proposed by K. Popper; namely, the formulation of prohibitive observations according to, and the consecutive evaluation of, previous data, on the basis on the new models. The levels to which the different models can explain the experimental observations are different, and to date, the most powerful has been the kiss-and-run model, whereas the least powerful has been the diffusion model.

Abstract
Successful passage through the cell cycle presents a number of structural challenges to the cell. Inceptive studies carried out in the last five years have produced clear evidence of modulations in the lipid profile (sometimes referred to as the lipidome) of eukaryotes as a function of the cell cycle. This mounting body of evidence indicates that lipids play key roles in the structural transformations seen across the cycle. The accumulation of this evidence coincides with a revolution in our understanding of how lipid composition regulates a plethora of biological processes ranging from protein activity through to cellular signalling and membrane compartmentalisation. In this review, we discuss evidence from biological, chemical and physical studies of the lipid fraction across the cell cycle that demonstrate that lipids are well-developed cellular components at the heart of the biological machinery responsible for managing progress through the cell cycle. Furthermore, we discuss the mechanisms by which this careful control is exercised.

Abstract
Legionella pneumophila is a bacterial pathogen that thrives in alveolar macrophages, causing a severe pneumonia. The virulence of L. pneumophila depends on its Dot/Icm type IV secretion system (T4SS), which delivers more than 300 effector proteins into the host, where they rewire cellular signaling to establish a replication-permissive niche, the Legionella-containing vacuole (LCV). Biogenesis of the LCV requires substantial redirection of vesicle trafficking and remodeling of intracellular membranes. In order to achieve this, several T4SS effectors target regulators of membrane trafficking, while others resemble lipases. Here, we characterized LpdA, a phospholipase D effector, which was previously proposed to modulate the lipid composition of the LCV. We found that ectopically expressed LpdA was targeted to the plasma membrane and Rab4- and Rab14-containing vesicles. Subcellular targeting of LpdA required a C-terminal motif, which is posttranslationally modified by S-palmitoylation. Substrate specificity assays showed that LpdA hydrolyzed phosphatidylinositol, -inositol-3- and -4-phosphate, and phosphatidylglycerol to phosphatidic acid (PA) in vitro. In HeLa cells, LpdA generated PA at vesicles and the plasma membrane. Imaging of different phosphatidylinositol phosphate (PIP) and organelle markers revealed that while LpdA did not impact on membrane association of various PIP probes, it triggered fragmentation of the Golgi apparatus. Importantly, although LpdA is translocated inefficiently into cultured cells, an L. pneumophila ΔlpdA mutant displayed reduced replication in murine lungs, suggesting that it is a virulence factor contributing to L. pneumophila infection in vivo.

Abstract
Protein kinase C epsilon (PKCε) contributes to multiple signaling pathways affecting human disease. The function of PKCε requires it to undergo changes in subcellular distribution in response to signaling events. While the mechanisms underlying this translocation are incompletely understood, it involves the receptor for activated C kinase protein (RACK2/β'-COP). This receptor also functions as a vesicle coat protein in the secretory pathway where it is regulated by the small GTP-binding protein ADP-ribosylation factor, ARF1. We inhibited ARF1 activation to test the requirement for RACK2/β'-COP in PKCε localization in NIH3T3 fibroblasts. We found that steady-state localization of PKCε at the Golgi complex requires ARF1-regulated RACK2/β'-COP function. By contrast, we did not observe any defects in phorbol ester-induced translocation when ARF1 was inhibited. We also found that PKCε bound to isolated membranes through two distinct mechanisms. One mechanism was dependent upon RACK2/β'-COP while a second was RACK2/β'-COP-independent and stimulated by phorbol esters. Finally, we show that RACK2/β'-COP affects the subcellular distribution of a constitutively active form of PKCε, in a manner similar to what we observed for wild-type PKCε. Together, our data support a role for RACK2/β'-COP in the steady-state localization of PKCε at the Golgi apparatus, which may be independent of its role during PKCε translocation to the cell surface.

Abstract
Proteins essential for vesicle formation by the Coat Protein I (COPI) complex are being identified, but less is known about the role of specific lipids. Brefeldin-A ADP-ribosylated substrate (BARS) functions in the fission step of COPI vesicle formation. Here, we show that BARS induces membrane curvature in cooperation with phosphatidic acid. This finding has allowed us to further delineate COPI vesicle fission into two sub-stages: 1) an earlier stage of bud-neck constriction, in which BARS and other COPI components are required, and 2) a later stage of bud-neck scission, in which phosphatidic acid generated by phospholipase D2 (PLD2) is also required. Moreover, in contrast to the disruption of the Golgi seen on perturbing the core COPI components (such as coatomer), inhibition of PLD2 causes milder disruptions, suggesting that such COPI components have additional roles in maintaining Golgi structure other than through COPI vesicle formation.

Abstract
The translocation of GLUT4 to the plasma membrane underlies the ability of insulin to stimulate glucose uptake, an event that involves the activation of protein kinase B, several members of the Rab family of GTP-binding proteins and the phosphorylation of the Rab GTPase-activating protein AS160. Here, we explored the regulation by insulin of the class I Rab11-interacting proteins Rip11, RCP and FIP2. We show that Rip11, but not RCP or FIP2, translocates to the plasma membrane of 3T3-L1 adipocytes in response to insulin. This unique response of Rip11 prompted us to explore the role of this protein in more detail. We found that Rip11 partially colocalises with GLUT4 in intracellular compartments. siRNA-mediated knockdown of Rip11 inhibits insulin-stimulated uptake of 2-deoxyglucose, and overexpression of Rip11 blocks insulin-stimulated insertion of translocated GLUT4 vesicles into the plasma membrane. We additionally show that Rip11 forms a complex with AS160 in a Rab11-independent manner and that insulin induces dissociation of AS160 from Rip11. We propose that Rip11 is an AS160- and Rab-binding protein that coordinates the protein kinase signalling and trafficking machinery required to stimulate glucose uptake in response to insulin.

Abstract
Poliovirus infection results in the disintegration of intracellular membrane structures and formation of specific vesicles that serve as sites for replication of viral RNA. The mechanism of membrane rearrangement has not been clearly defined. Replication of poliovirus is sensitive to brefeldin A (BFA), a fungal metabolite known to prevent normal function of the ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF) family of small GTPases. During normal membrane trafficking in uninfected cells, ARFs are involved in vesicle formation from different intracellular sites through interaction with numerous regulatory and coat proteins as well as in regulation of phospholipase D activity and cytoskeleton modifications. We demonstrate here that ARFs 3 and 5, but not ARF6, are translocated to membranes in HeLa cell extracts that are engaged in translation of poliovirus RNA. The accumulation of ARFs on membranes correlates with active replication of poliovirus RNA in vitro, whereas ARF translocation to membranes does not occur in the presence of BFA. ARF translocation can be induced independently by synthesis of poliovirus 3A or 3CD proteins, and we describe mutations that abolished this activity. In infected HeLa cells, an ARF1-enhanced green fluorescent protein fusion redistributes from Golgi stacks to the perinuclear region, where poliovirus RNA replication occurs. Taken together, the data suggest an involvement of ARF in poliovirus RNA replication.

Abstract
Protein coats deform flat lipid membranes into buds and capture membrane proteins to form transport vesicles. The assembly/disassembly cycle of the COPI coat on Golgi membranes is coupled to the GTP/GDP cycle of the small G protein Arf1. At the heart of this coupling is the specific interaction of membrane-bound Arf1-GTP with coatomer, a complex of seven proteins that forms the building unit of the COPI coat. Although COPI coat disassembly requires the catalysis of GTP hydrolysis in Arf1 by a specific GTPase-activating protein (ArfGAP1), the precise timing of this reaction during COPI vesicle formation is not known. Using time-resolved assays for COPI dynamics on liposomes of controlled size, we show that the rate of ArfGAP1-catalysed GTP hydrolysis in Arf1 and the rate of COPI disassembly increase over two orders of magnitude as the curvature of the lipid bilayer increases and approaches that of a typical transport vesicle. This leads to a model for COPI dynamics in which GTP hydrolysis in Arf1 is organized temporally and spatially according to the changes in lipid packing induced by the coat.

Abstract
The stimulation of cells with many extracellular agonists leads to the activation of phospholipase (PL)D. PLD metabolizes phosphatidylcholine to generate phosphatidic acid (PA). Neither the mechanism through which cell surface receptors regulate PLD activation nor the functional consequences of PLD activity in mitogenic signaling are completely understood. PLD is activated by protein kinase C, phospholipids, and small GTPases of the ADP-ribosylation factor and Rho families, but the mechanisms linking cell surface receptors to the activation of PLD still require detailed analysis. Furthermore, the latest data on the functional consequences of the generation of cellular PA suggest an important role for this lipid in the regulation of membrane traffic and on the activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase cascade. This review addresses these issues, examining some novel models for the physiological role of PLD and PA and discussing their potential usefulness as specific targets for the development of new therapies.

Abstract
Recent work from our laboratory demonstrated that phosphatidic acid (PA) and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P(2)), are required to maintain the structural integrity of the Golgi apparatus. To investigate the role of these lipids in regulating Golgi structure and function, we developed a novel assay to follow the release of post-Golgi vesicles. Isolated rat liver Golgi membranes were incubated with [(3)H]CMP sialic acid to radiolabel endogenous soluble and membrane glycoproteins present in the late Golgi and trans-Golgi network. The release of post-Golgi secretory vesicles was determined by measuring incorporation of (3)H-labeled proteins into a medium speed supernatant. Vesicle budding was dependent on temperature, cytosol, energy and time. Electron microscopy of Golgi fractions prior to and after incubation demonstrated that the stacked Golgi cisternae generated a heterogeneous population of vesicles (50- to 350-nm diameter). Inhibition of phospholipase D-mediated PA synthesis, by incubation with 1-butanol, resulted in the complete fragmentation of the Golgi membranes in vitro into 50- to 100-nm vesicles; this correlated with diminished PtdIns(4,5)P(2) synthesis. Following alcohol washout, PA synthesis resumed and in the presence of cytosol PtdIns(4,5)P(2) synthesis was restored. Most significantly, under these conditions the fragmented Golgi elements reformed into flattened cisternae and the re-assembled Golgi supported vesicle release. These data demonstrate that inositol phospholipid synthesis is essential for the structure and function of the Golgi apparatus.

Abstract
ADP-ribosylation factor (Arf) 6 regulates the movement of membrane between the plasma membrane (PM) and a nonclathrin-derived endosomal compartment and activates phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase (PIP 5-kinase), an enzyme that generates phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2). Here, we show that PIP2 visualized by expressing a fusion protein of the pleckstrin homology domain from PLCdelta and green fluorescent protein (PH-GFP), colocalized with Arf6 at the PM and on tubular endosomal structures. Activation of Arf6 by expression of its exchange factor EFA6 stimulated protrusion formation, the uptake of PM into macropinosomes enriched in PIP2, and recycling of this membrane back to the PM. By contrast, expression of Arf6 Q67L, a GTP hydrolysis-resistant mutant, induced the formation of PIP2-positive actin-coated vacuoles that were unable to recycle membrane back to the PM. PM proteins, such as beta1-integrin, plakoglobin, and major histocompatibility complex class I, that normally traffic through the Arf6 endosomal compartment became trapped in this vacuolar compartment. Overexpression of human PIP 5-kinase alpha mimicked the effects seen with Arf6 Q67L. These results demonstrate that PIP 5-kinase activity and PIP2 turnover controlled by activation and inactivation of Arf6 is critical for trafficking through the Arf6 PM-endosomal recycling pathway.

Abstract
Phospholipase D (PLD) hydrolyzes phosphatidylcholine to generate phosphatidic acid. In mammalian cells this reaction has been implicated in the recruitment of coatomer to Golgi membranes and release of nascent secretory vesicles from the trans-Golgi network. These observations suggest that PLD is associated with the Golgi complex; however, to date, because of its low abundance, the intracellular localization of PLD has been characterized only indirectly through overexpression of chimeric proteins. We have used highly sensitive antibodies to PLD1 together with immunofluorescence and immunogold electron microscopy as well as cell fractionation to identify the intracellular localization of endogenous PLD1 in several cell types. Although PLD1 had a diffuse staining pattern, it was enriched significantly in the Golgi apparatus and was also present in cell nuclei. On fragmentation of the Golgi apparatus by treatment with nocodazole, PLD1 closely associated with membrane fragments, whereas after inhibition of PA synthesis, PLD1 dissociated from the membranes. Overexpression of an hemagglutinin-tagged form of PLD1 resulted in displacement of the endogenous enzyme from its perinuclear localization to large vesicular structures. Surprisingly, when the Golgi apparatus collapsed in response to brefeldin A, the nuclear localization of PLD1 was enhanced significantly. Our data show that the intracellular localization of PLD1 is consistent with a role in vesicle trafficking from the Golgi apparatus and suggest that it also functions in the cell nucleus.

Abstract
In response to epidermal growth factor (EGF), the EGF receptor is endocytosed and degraded. A substantial lag period exists between endocytosis and degradation, suggesting that endocytosis is more than a simple negative feedback. Phospholipase D (PLD), which has been implicated in vesicle formation in the Golgi, is activated in response to EGF and other growth factors. We report here that EGF receptor endocytosis is dependent upon PLD and the PLD1 regulators, protein kinase C alpha and RalA. EGF-induced receptor degradation is accelerated by overexpression of either wild-type PLD1 or PLD2 and retarded by overexpression of catalytically inactive mutants of either PLD1 or PLD2. EGF-induced activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase, which is dependent upon receptor endocytosis, is also dependent upon PLD. These data suggest a role for PLD in signaling that facilitates receptor endocytosis.

Abstract
Adenosine diphosphate-ribosylation factor (Arf) proteins are members of the Arf arm of the Ras superfamily of guanosine triphosphate (GTP)-binding proteins. Arfs are named for their activity as cofactors for cholera toxin-catalyzed adenosine diphosphate-ribosylation of the heterotrimeric G protein Gs. Physiologically, Arfs regulate membrane traffic and the actin cytoskeleton. Arfs function both constitutively within the secretory pathway and as targets of signal transduction in the cell periphery. In each case, the controlled binding and hydrolysis of GTP is critical to Arf function. The activities of some guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) and guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase)-activating proteins (GAPs) are stimulated by phosphoinositides, including phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PIP3) and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2), and phosphatidic acid (PA), likely providing both a means to respond to regulatory signals and a mechanism to coordinate GTP binding and hydrolysis. Arfs affect membrane traffic in part by recruiting coat proteins, including COPI and clathrin adaptor complexes, to membranes. However, Arf function likely involves many additional biochemical activities. Arf activates phospholipase D and phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase with the consequent production of PA and PIP2, respectively. In addition to mediating Arf's effects on membrane traffic and the actin cytoskeleton, PA and PIP2 are involved in the regulation of Arf. Arf also works with Rho family proteins to affect the actin cytoskeleton. Several Arf-binding proteins suspected to be effectors have been identified in two-hybrid screens. Arf-dependent biochemical activities, actin cytoskeleton changes, and membrane trafficking may be integrally related. Understanding Arf's role in complex cellular functions such as protein secretion or cell movement will involve a description of the temporal and spatial coordination of these multiple Arf-dependent events.

Abstract
The role of ADP-ribosylation factor 1 (ARF-1) in the assembly of very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) was investigated by expressing dominant-negative mutants in McA-RH7777 cells. Transient expression of ARF-1(T31N), a GDP-restrictive mutant, significantly inhibited apolipoprotein B-100 (apoB-100) VLDL production without influencing the biosynthesis of apoB-100 low density lipoproteins or total apoB production (indicating that it inhibited the second step of VLDL assembly) and without altering total protein production or biosynthesis of transferrin, phosphatidylcholine, or triglycerides. These effects were confirmed in stable inducible transfectants. In contrast, expression of an ARF-1 mutant lacking the N-terminal 17 amino acids, which has no myristoylation site and cannot interact with the microsomal membrane, did not affect VLDL assembly. Thus, active ARF-1 is needed for the second step of the process. To further explore these observations, we developed a cell-free system based on the postnuclear supernatant isolated from McA-RH7777 cells. In this system, 10-15% of the apoB-100 pool was converted to VLDL in a time- and temperature-dependent way. The assembly process was highly dependent on a heat-stable factor in the d > 1.21 g/ml infranatant of fetal calf serum; this factor was not present in low density lipoproteins or VLDL. Brefeldin A inhibited VLDL assembly in this system, as did a synthetic peptide (corresponding to N-terminal amino acids 2-17 of ARF-1) that displaces ARF-1 from the membrane. Thus, active ARF-1 is also needed for cell-free assembly of VLDL. Guanosine 5'-3-O-(thio)triphosphate also inhibited VLDL assembly in this system, indicating that the process requires ongoing hydrolysis of GTP. 1-Butanol, which inhibits the formation of phosphatidic acid (PA) and instead gives rise to phosphatidylbutanol, inhibited VLDL assembly, whereas 2-butanol, which does not inhibit PA formation, failed to do so. Thus, phospholipase D (PLD)-catalyzed formation of PA from phosphatidylcholine is essential for VLDL assembly. In support of this conclusion, exogenous PLD prevented brefeldin A from inhibiting the assembly process. Our results indicate that ARF-1 participates in the second step of VLDL assembly through a process that involves activation of PLD and production of PA.

Abstract
ADP-ribosylation factor 1 (ARF1) mediates clathrin coat formation on PC12 immature secretory granules (ISGs). We have used two approaches to investigate whether ARF1 interacts directly with the clathrin adaptor protein, AP-1. Using an in vitro recruitment assay and co-immunoprecipitation, we could isolate an AP-1.ARF1 complex. Then we used a site-directed photocross-linking approach to determine the components that act downstream of ARF1 in clathrin coat formation on ISGs. Myristoylated ARF1, with a photolabile phenylalanine analogue incorporated into its putative effector domain (switch 1), showed a specific, GTP-dependent interaction with both the gamma- and beta-adaptin subunits of AP-1 on ISGs. These experiments provide evidence for a direct interaction of ARF1 with AP-1. On mature secretory granules myristoylated ARF1 does not bind, and hence clathrin coat formation cannot be initiated, supporting the hypothesis that molecules involved in coat recruitment are removed during ISG maturation.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol transfer proteins (PITPs) are now becoming widely recognized as intriguing proteins that participate in the coordination and coupling of phospholipid metabolism with vesicle trafficking, and in the regulation of important signaling cascades. Yet, only in one case is there a large body of evidence that speaks to the precise identities of PITP-dependent cellular reactions, and to the mechanisms by which PITPs execute function in eukaryotic cells. At present, yeast provide the most powerful system for analysis of the physiology of PITP function in vivo, and the mechanism by which this function is carried out. Here, we review the recent progress and remaining questions in the area of PITP function in yeast.

Abstract
The small GTP-binding protein ADP-ribosylation factor 1 (ARF1) is an essential component of the molecular machinery that catalyzes the formation of membrane-bound transport intermediates. By using an in vitro assay that reproduces recruitment of cytosolic proteins onto purified, high salt-washed Golgi membranes, we have analyzed the role of cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA) on ARF1 incorporation. Addition to this assay of either pure catalytic subunits of PKA (C-PKA) or cAMP increased ARF1 binding. By contrast, ARF1 association was inhibited following C-PKA inactivation with either PKA inhibitory peptide or RIIalpha as well as after cytosol depletion of C-PKA. C-PKA also stimulated recruitment and activation of a recombinant form of human ARF1 in the absence of additional cytosolic components. The binding step could be dissociated from the activation reaction and found to be independent of guanine nucleotides and saturable. This step was stimulated by C-PKA in an ATP-dependent manner. Dephosphorylated Golgi membranes exhibited a decreased ability to recruit ARF1, and this effect was reverted by addition of C-PKA. Following an increase in the intracellular level of cAMP, ARF proteins redistributed from cytosol to the perinuclear Golgi region of intact cells. Collectively, the results show that PKA exerts a key regulatory role in the recruitment of ARF1 onto Golgi membranes. In contrast, PKA modulators did not affect recruitment of beta-COP onto Golgi membranes containing prebound ARF1.

Abstract
Maintenance of the structural and functional organization of a eucaryotic cell requires the correct targeting of proteins and lipids to their destinations. This is achieved by the delivery of newly synthesized material along the secretory pathway on one hand and by the retrieval of membranes on the other hand. Various models have been suggested over the years to explain traffic flow within the secretory pathway. The only two models that are under discussion to date are the "vesicular model" and the "cisternal maturation model". A wealth of information from various experimental approaches, strongly supports the vesicular model as the general mode of intracellular transport. Three major types of protein-coated transport vesicles are characterized in molecular detail, and have been attributed to various steps of the secretory pathway: COPII-coated vesicles allow exit from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), COPI-coated vesicles carry proteins within the early secretory pathway, i.e. between ER and Golgi apparatus, and clathrin-coated vesicles mediate transport from the trans-Golgi network (TGN). In this review we will give an overview of the route of a protein along the secretory pathway and summarize the progress that was made within the last decades in the characterization of distinct intracellular transport steps. We will discuss the current models for the formation and fusion of vesicular carriers with a major focus on the mechanism underlying budding of a COPI-coated vesicle.

Abstract
In mammalian cells, activation of a Golgi-associated phospholipase D by ADP-ribosylation factor results in the hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine to form phosphatidic acid (PA). This reaction stimulates the release of nascent secretory vesicles from the trans-Golgi network of endocrine cells. To understand the role of PA in mediating secretion, we have exploited the transphosphatidylation activity of phospholipase D. Rat anterior pituitary GH3 cells, which secrete growth hormone and prolactin, were treated with 1-butanol resulting in the synthesis of phosphatidylbutanol rather than PA. Under these conditions transport from the ER through the Golgi apparatus and secretion of polypeptide hormones were inhibited quantitatively. Furthermore, the in vitro synthesis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P(2)) by Golgi membranes was inhibited quantitatively. Most significantly, in the presence of 1-butanol the architecture of the Golgi apparatus was disrupted, resulting in its disassembly and fragmentation. Removal of the alcohol resulted in the rapid restoration of Golgi structure and secretion of growth hormone and prolactin. Our results suggest that PA stimulation of PtdIns(4,5)P(2) synthesis is required for maintaining the structural integrity and function of the Golgi apparatus.

Abstract
We describe an in vitro system in which post-Golgi vesicles containing metabolically labeled, sialylated, vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) G protein molecules (VSV-G) are produced from the trans-Golgi network (TGN) of an isolated Golgi membrane fraction. This fraction is prepared from VSV-infected Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells in which the (35)S-labeled viral envelope glycoprotein was allowed to accumulate in the trans-Golgi network during a prolonged incubation at 20 degrees C. The vesicles produced in this system are separated from the remnant Golgi membranes by differential centrifugation or by velocity sedimentation in a sucrose gradient. Vesicle production, quantified as the percentage of labeled VSV-G released from the Golgi membranes, is optimal at 37 degrees C and does not occur below 20 degrees C. It requires GTP and the small GTP-binding protein Arf (ADP-ribosylation factor), as well as coat protein type I (COPI) coat components (coatomer) and vesicle scission factors-one of which corresponds to the phosphatidylinositol transfer protein (PITP). Formation of the vesicles does not require GTP hydrolysis which, however, is necessary for their uncoating. Thus, vesicles generated in the presence of the nonhydrolyzable GTP analogs, GTPgammaS or GMP-PNP, retain a coatomer coat visible in the electron microscope, sediment more rapidly in sucrose density gradients than those generated with ATP or GTP, and can be captured with anticoatomerantibodies. The process of coatomer-coated vesicle formation from the TGN can be dissected into two distinct sequential phases, corresponding to coat assembly/bud formation and vesicle scission. The first phase is completed when Golgi fractions are incubated with cytosolic proteins and nonhydrolyzable GTP analogs at 20 degrees C. The scission phase, which leads to vesicle release, takes place when coated Golgi membranes, recovered after phase I, are incubated at higher temperatures in the presence of cytosolic proteins. The scission phase does not take place if protein kinase C inhibitors are added during the first phase, even though these inhibitors do not prevent membrane coating and bud formation. The phosphorylating activity of a protein kinase C, however, plays no role in vesicle formation, since this process does not require ATP.

Abstract
Coat proteins of the COP family were recently shown by us and others to be involved in membrane transport in the endocytic pathway, in addition to their known functions in the biosynthetic pathway. We have also shown that membrane association of endosomal COPs depends on the acidic endosomal pH, in contrast to biosynthetic COPs. In this paper, we report that both membrane recruitment of endosomal COPs and in vitro biogenesis of transport intermediates destined for late endosomes, depend on a cytosolic factor, which we identified as the small GTP-binding protein ARF1. Our data indicate that ARF1 does not act via activation of an endosomal phospholipase D. We also find that ARF1 membrane association is regulated by the endosomal pH, and that this controls the pH-dependent association of endosomal COPs. These studies thus show that ARF1 regulates COP functions in the endocytic pathway, and indicate that ARF1 acts as the cytosolic component of a transmembrane pH-sensing mechanism.

Abstract
Based on recent studies showing that phospholipase D (PLD)1 is associated with intracellular membranes and promotes membrane budding from the trans-Golgi, we tested its possible role in the membrane trafficking of GLUT4 glucose transporters. Using immunofluorescence confocal microscopy, expressed Myc epitope-tagged PLD1 was found to associate with intracellular vesicular structures by a mechanism that requires its N-terminal pleckstrin homology domain. Partial co-localization with expressed GLUT4 fused to green fluorescent protein in both 3T3-L1 adipocytes and Chinese hamster ovary cells was evident. Furthermore, microinjection of purified PLD into cultured adipocytes markedly potentiated the effect of a submaximal concentration of insulin to stimulate GLUT4 translocation to cell surface membranes. Insulin stimulated PLD activity in cells expressing high levels of insulin receptors but no such insulin effect was detected in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Taken together, these results are consistent with the hypothesis that PLD1 associated with GLUT4-containing membranes acts in a constitutive manner to promote the mechanism of GLUT4 translocation by insulin.

Abstract
Nine mutations in the switch I and switch II regions of human ADP-ribosylation factor 3 (ARF3) were isolated from loss-of-interaction screens, using two-hybrid assays with three different effectors. We then analyzed the ability of the recombinant proteins to (i) bind guanine nucleotides, (ii) activate phospholipase D1 (PLD1), (iii) recruit coatomer (COP-I) to Golgi-enriched membranes, and (iv) expand and vesiculate Golgi in intact cells. Correlations of activities in these assays were used as a means of testing specific hypotheses of ARF action, including the role of PLD1 activation in COP-I recruitment, the role of COP-I in Golgi vesiculation caused by expression of the dominant activating mutant [Q71L]ARF3, and the need for PLD1 activation in Golgi vesiculation. Because we were able to find at least one example of a protein that has lost each of these activities with retention of the others, we conclude that activation of PLD1, recruitment of COP-I to Golgi, and vesiculation of Golgi in cells are functionally separable processes. The ability of certain mutants of ARF3 to alter Golgi morphology without changes in PLD1 activity or COP-I binding is interpreted as evidence for at least one additional, currently unidentified, effector for ARF action at the Golgi.

Abstract
This review focuses on the roles of coat proteins in regulating the membrane traffic of eukaryotic cells. Coat proteins are recruited to the donor organelle membrane from a cytosolic pool by specific small GTP-binding proteins and are required for the budding of coated vesicles. This review first describes the four types of coat complexes that have been characterized so far: clathrin and its adaptors, the adaptor-related AP-3 complex, COPI, and COPII. It then discusses the ascribed functions of coat proteins in vesicular transport, including the physical deformation of the membrane into a bud, the selection of cargo, and the targeting of the budded vesicle. It also mentions how the coat proteins may function in an alternative model for transport, namely via tubular connections, and how traffic is regulated. Finally, this review outlines the evidence that related coat proteins may regulate other steps of membrane traffic.

Abstract
Vesicle specific SNAP receptors (v-SNAREs) Bos1p and Bet1p are involved in targeting of anterograde vesicles between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and early Golgi of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. To analyze factors that influence the targeting of these proteins, alpha-factor tagged versions of Bos1p and Bet1p were employed. The alpha-factor can be cleaved off by the Kex2p protease as soon as the hybrid proteins reach the late Golgi compartment. The data obtained by monitoring of Kex2p cleavage, by immunofluorescence microscopy and cell fractionation showed that Bos1-alpha and Bet1-alpha have different cellular localization and dynamics. Bos1-alpha is an ER protein, which recycles between the Golgi and the ER in COPI-dependent manner. Bet1-alpha is an early Golgi protein and it does not change its localization under conditions when other recycling Golgi proteins can be trapped in the ER.

Abstract
Using a cell free assay, we have previously shown that ARF is not required for endosome fusion but that inhibition of fusion by GTPgammaS is dependent on a cytosolic pool of ARFs. Since ARF is proposed to function in intracellular membrane traffic by promoting vesicle biogenesis, and components of clathrin- and COP-coated vesicles have been localized on endosomal structures, we investigated whether ARF-mediated inhibition of early endosome fusion involves the recruitment or irreversible association of these proteins onto endosomal membranes. We now report that depletion of components of clathrin coated vesicles (clathrin, AP-1 and AP-2) or COPI vesicles (beta COP) does not affect the capacity of GTPgammaS-activated ARF to inhibit endosome fusion. Inhibition of fusion by activated ARF is also independent of endosomal acidification since assays performed in the presence of the vacuolar ATPase inhibitor bafilomycin A1 are equally sensitive to GTPgammaS-bound ARF. Finally, in contrast to reported effects on lysosomes, we demonstrate that ARF-GTPgammaS does not induce endosomal lysis. These combined data argue that sequestration of known coat proteins to membranes by activated ARF is not involved in the inhibition of early endosome fusion and that its capacity to inhibit fusion involves other specific interactions with the endosome surface. These results contrast with the mechanistic action of ARF on intra-Golgi transport and nuclear envelope assembly.

Abstract
In this review, we have discussed recent progress in the study of the regulation that controls phospholipid metabolism in S. cerevisiae. This regulation occurs on multiple levels and is tightly integrated with a large number of other cellular processes and related metabolic and signal transduction pathways. Progress in deciphering this complex regulation has been very rapid in the last few years, aided by the availability of the sequence of the entire Saccharomyces genome. The assignment of functions to the remaining unassigned open reading frames, as well as ascertainment of remaining gene-enzyme relationships in phospholipid biosynthesis in yeast, promises to provide detailed understanding of the genetic regulation of a crucial area of metabolism in a key eukaryotic model system. Since the processes of lipid metabolism, secretion, and signal transduction show fundamental similarities in all eukaryotes, the dissection of this regulation in yeast promises to have wide application to our understanding of metabolic control in all eukaryotes.

Abstract
The clathrin-associated AP-2 adaptor protein is a major polyphosphoinositide-binding protein in mammalian cells. A high affinity binding site has previously been localized to the NH(2)-terminal region of the AP-2 alpha subunit (Gaidarov et al. 1996. J. Biol. Chem. 271:20922-20929). Here we used deletion and site- directed mutagenesis to determine that alpha residues 21-80 comprise a discrete folding and inositide-binding domain. Further, positively charged residues located within this region are involved in binding, with a lysine triad at positions 55-57 particularly critical. Mutant peptides and protein in which these residues were changed to glutamine retained wild-type structural and functional characteristics by several criteria including circular dichroism spectra, resistance to limited proteolysis, and clathrin binding activity. When expressed in intact cells, mutated alpha subunit showed defective localization to clathrin-coated pits; at high expression levels, the appearance of endogenous AP-2 in coated pits was also blocked consistent with a dominant-negative phenotype. These results, together with recent work indicating that phosphoinositides are also critical to ligand-dependent recruitment of arrestin-receptor complexes to coated pits (Gaidarov et al. 1999. EMBO (Eur. Mol. Biol. Organ.) J. 18:871-881), suggest that phosphoinositides play a critical and general role in adaptor incorporation into plasma membrane clathrin-coated pits.

Abstract
The small GTP-binding protein, ADP-ribosylation factor 1 (ARF1) is essential for the formation of coatomer-coated vesicles from the Golgi and is also an activator of phospholipase D (PLD). Moreover, ARF1-regulated PLD is part of the signal-transduction pathway that can lead to secretion. In this study, substitution and deletion mutants of ARF1 were tested for their ability to activate PLD. These map the PLD effector region of ARF1 to the alpha2 helix, part of the beta2-strand and the N-terminal helix and its ensuing loop. ARF mutants with an increased or decreased ability to activate PLD showed similar characteristics when tested for their ability to stimulate secretion from HL60 cells. ARF1, deleted of the N-terminal 17 amino acid residues (Ndel17), did not support PLD activity or secretion, and neither did it inhibit the activity of wild-type myristoylated ARF1 (myrARF1). In contrast, Ndel17 effectively competed with wild-type myrARF1 to prevent coatomer binding to membranes. This appears to define a structural role for Ndel17, as it can bind a high-molecular mass complex in cytosol. In addition, ethanol has no effect on recruitment of coatomer to membrane. We conclude that the function of ARF-regulated PLD is in the signal-transduction pathway leading to secretion of lysosomal granules, and not as an essential component of ARF1-mediated coatomer binding.

Abstract
Enzymes that modify phospholipids play necessary, but poorly understood, roles in constitutive membrane traffic. Local production of specific phosphoinositides is required for endocytosis and regulated exocytosis, and enzymes that produce and consume phosphoinositides are components of post-Golgi membrane vesicles. Both biochemical and genetic data indicate that regulation of the membrane content of phosphatidic acid, diacylglycerol and phosphoinositides is necessary for protein traffic from the Golgi complex. Evidence for a regulatory role for lipids earlier in the constitutive secretory pathway is more limited and controversial. Although the mechanisms that regulate traffic between the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi might be qualitatively different from those that control later membrane transport pathways, recent studies suggest that production of specific lipids is important for transport both into and out of the Golgi. As discussed in this article, one potential mechanism for the involvement of lipids is to control the GTPase cycle of a small GTP-binding protein, ARF (ADP-ribosylation factor).

Abstract
COPI-coated vesicle budding from lipid bilayers whose composition resembles mammalian Golgi membranes requires coatomer, ARF, GTP, and cytoplasmic tails of putative cargo receptors (p24 family proteins) or membrane cargo proteins (containing the KKXX retrieval signal) emanating from the bilayer surface. Liposome-derived COPI-coated vesicles are similar to their native counterparts with respect to diameter, buoyant density, morphology, and the requirement for an elevated temperature for budding. These results suggest that a bivalent interaction of coatomer with membrane-bound ARF[GTP] and with the cytoplasmic tails of cargo or putative cargo receptors is the molecular basis of COPI coat assembly and provide a simple mechanism to couple uptake of cargo to transport vesicle formation.
