Abstract
Mammalian homologs of yeast Atg8 protein (mAtg8s) are important in autophagy, but their exact mode of action remains ill-defined. Syntaxin 17 (Stx17), a SNARE with major roles in autophagy, was recently shown to bind mAtg8s. Here, we identified LC3-interacting regions (LIRs) in several SNAREs that broaden the landscape of the mAtg8-SNARE interactions. We found that Syntaxin 16 (Stx16) and its cognate SNARE partners all have LIR motifs and bind mAtg8s. Knockout of Stx16 caused defects in lysosome biogenesis, whereas a Stx16 and Stx17 double knockout completely blocked autophagic flux and decreased mitophagy, pexophagy, xenophagy, and ribophagy. Mechanistic analyses revealed that mAtg8s and Stx16 control several properties of lysosomal compartments including their function as platforms for active mTOR. These findings reveal a broad direct interaction of mAtg8s with SNAREs with impact on membrane remodeling in eukaryotic cells and expand the roles of mAtg8s to lysosome biogenesis.

Abstract
STX19 is an unusual Qa-SNARE as it lacks a C-terminal transmembrane domain. However, it is efficiently targeted to post-Golgi membranes. Here, we set out to determine the intracellular localisation of endogenous STX19 and elucidate the mechanism by which it is targeted to membranes. We have found that a pool of STX19 is localised to tubular recycling endosomes where it colocalises with MICAL-L1 and Rab8 (which has Rab8a and Rab8b forms). Using a combination of genetic, biochemical and cell-based approaches, we have identified that STX19 is S-acylated at its C-terminus and is a substrate for several Golgi-localised S-acyltransferases, suggesting that STX19 is initially S-acylated at the Golgi before trafficking to the plasma membrane and endosomes. Surprisingly, we have found that S-acylation is a key determinant in targeting STX19 to tubular recycling endosomes, suggesting that S-acylation may play a general role in directing proteins to this compartment. In addition, S-acylation also protects STX19 from proteosomal degradation, indicating that S-acylation regulates the function of STX19 at multiple levels.This article has an associated First Person interview with the first author of the paper.

Abstract
Proteins of the SNARE (Soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptors) family play a significant role in all
vesicular fusion events involved in endocytic and exocytic pathways. These proteins act as molecular machines that assemble into tight
four-helix bundle complex, bridging the opposing membranes into close proximity forming membrane fusion. Almost all SNARE
proteins share a 53 amino acid coiled-coil domain, which is mostly linked to the transmembrane domain at the C-terminal end. Despite
significant variations between SNARE sequences across species, the SNARE mediated membrane fusion is evolutionary conserved in
all eukaryotes. It is of interest to compare the functional divergence of SNARE proteins across various eukaryotic groups during
evolution. Here, we report an exhaustive phylogeny of the SNARE proteins retrieved from SNARE database including plants, animals,
fungi and protists. The Initial phylogeny segregated SNARE protein sequences into five well-supported clades Qa, Qb, Qc, Qbc and R
reflective of their positions in the four-helix SNARE complex. Further to improve resolution the Qa, Qb, Qc and R family specific trees
were reconstructed, each of these were further segregated into organelle specific clades at first and later diverged into lineage specific
subgroups. This revealed that most of the SNARE orthologs are conserved at subcellular locations or at trafficking pathways across
various species during eukaryotic evolution. The paralogous expansion in SNARE repertoire was observed at metazoans (animals) and
plants independently during eukaryotic evolution. However, results also show that the multi-cellular and saprophytic fungi have
limited SNAREs.

Abstract
Upon infection, Legionella pneumophila uses the Dot/Icm type IV secretion system to translocate effector proteins from the Legionella-containing vacuole (LCV) into the host cell cytoplasm. The effectors target a wide array of host cellular processes that aid LCV biogenesis, including the manipulation of membrane trafficking. In this study, we used a hidden Markov model screen to identify two novel, non-eukaryotic soluble NSF attachment protein receptor (SNARE) homologs: the bacterial Legionella SNARE effector A (LseA) and viral SNARE homolog A proteins. We characterized LseA as a Dot/Icm effector of L. pneumophila, which has close homology to the Qc-SNARE subfamily. The lseA gene was present in multiple sequenced L. pneumophila strains including Corby and was well distributed among L. pneumophila clinical and environmental isolates. Employing a variety of biochemical, cell biological and microbiological techniques, we found that farnesylated LseA localized to membranes associated with the Golgi complex in mammalian cells and LseA interacted with a subset of Qa-, Qb- and R-SNAREs in host cells. Our results suggested that LseA acts as a SNARE protein and has the potential to regulate or mediate membrane fusion events in Golgi-associated pathways.

Abstract
The dynamics of stomatal movements and their consequences for photosynthesis and transpirational water loss have long been incorporated into mathematical models, but none have been developed from the bottom up that are widely applicable in predicting stomatal behavior at a cellular level. We previously established a systems dynamic model incorporating explicitly the wealth of biophysical and kinetic knowledge available for guard cell transport, signaling, and homeostasis. Here we describe the behavior of the model in response to experimentally documented changes in primary pump activities and malate (Mal) synthesis imposed over a diurnal cycle. We show that the model successfully recapitulates the cyclic variations in H⁺, K⁺, Cl⁻, and Mal concentrations in the cytosol and vacuole known for guard cells. It also yields a number of unexpected and counterintuitive outputs. Among these, we report a diurnal elevation in cytosolic-free Ca²⁺ concentration and an exchange of vacuolar Cl⁻ with Mal, both of which find substantiation in the literature but had previously been suggested to require additional and complex levels of regulation. These findings highlight the true predictive power of the OnGuard model in providing a framework for systems analysis of stomatal guard cells, and they demonstrate the utility of the OnGuard software and HoTSig library in exploring fundamental problems in cellular physiology and homeostasis.

Abstract
The role of SNAREs in mammalian constitutive secretion remains poorly defined. To address this, we have developed a novel flow cytometry-based assay for measuring constitutive secretion and have performed a targeted SNARE and Sec1/Munc18 (SM) protein-specific siRNA screen (38 SNAREs, 4 SNARE-like proteins and 7 SM proteins). We have identified the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)/Golgi SNAREs syntaxin 5, syntaxin 17, syntaxin 18, GS27, SLT1, Sec20, Sec22b, Ykt6 and the SM protein Sly1, along with the post-Golgi SNAREs SNAP-29 and syntaxin 19, as being required for constitutive secretion. Depletion of SNAP-29 or syntaxin 19 causes a decrease in the number of fusion events at the cell surface and in SNAP-29-depleted cells causes an increase in the number of docked vesicles at the plasma membrane as determined by total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF) microscopy. Analysis of syntaxin 19-interacting partners by mass spectrometry indicates that syntaxin 19 can form SNARE complexes with SNAP-23, SNAP-25, SNAP-29, VAMP3 and VAMP8, supporting its role in Golgi to plasma membrane transport or fusion. Surprisingly, we have failed to detect any requirement for a post-Golgi-specific R-SNARE in this process.

Abstract
Vesicle trafficking between intracellular compartments of eukaryotic cells is mediated by conserved protein machineries. In each trafficking step, fusion of the vesicle with the acceptor membrane is driven by a set of distinctive soluble N-ethylmaleimide sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) proteins that assemble into tight 4-helix bundle complexes between the fusing membranes. During evolution, about 20 primordial SNARE types were modified independently in different eukaryotic lineages by episodes of duplication and diversification. Here we show that 2 major changes in the SNARE repertoire occurred in the evolution of animals, each reflecting a main overhaul of the endomembrane system. In addition, we found several lineage-specific losses of distinct SNAREs, particularly in nematodes and platyhelminthes. The first major transformation took place during the transition to multicellularity. The primary event that occurred during this transformation was an increase in the numbers of endosomal SNAREs, but the SNARE-related factor lethal giant larvae also emerged. Apparently, enhanced endosomal sorting capabilities were an advantage for early multicellular animals. The second major transformation during the rise of vertebrates resulted in a robust expansion of the secretory set of SNAREs, which may have helped develop a more versatile secretory apparatus.

Abstract
The small GTPase Rab22B (or Rab31) has been suspected to be involved in trafficking at trans-Golgi network. However, its exact cellular localization, tissue expression profile, and functions have not been uncharacterized. Specific antibody raised against Rab22B's protein revealed that Rab22B is brain-enriched, but is also present in substantial levels in spleen and intestine. In HeLa cells, endogenous Rab22B is largely associated with the trans-Golgi network (TGN). Over-expression of a GDP-binding mutant (Rab22BSN), but not wild-type Rab22B, specifically disrupts the TGN localization of TGN46, a dynamic marker which cycles between the TGN and the plasma membrane. The TGN resident membrane protein syntaxin 16, cis-Golgi markers such as GM130 and syntaxin 5, as well as the TGN/late endosome marker mannose 6-phosphate receptor (M6PR) are not affected by Rab22BSN, neither was endosomal-TGN transport of the Shiga toxin B subunit. The disruption of TGN46 staining by Rab22BSN could be specifically attributed to a domain at the C-terminal portion of Rab22B, where its sequence deviates the most from Rab22A. Over-expression of Rab22BSN inhibits the cell surface transport of the vesicular stomatitis virus G protein. Thus, Rab22B may have a role in anterograde exit from the TGN.
