Abstract
Efficient export of vesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein (VSV-G), a type I transmembrane protein, from the endoplasmic reticulum requires a di-acidic code (DXE) located in the cytosolic carboxyl-terminal tail (Nishimura, N., and Balch, W. E. (1997) Science 277, 556-558). Mutation of the DXE code by mutation to AXA did not prevent VSV-G recruitment to pre-budding complexes formed in the presence of the activated form of the Sar1 and the Sec23/24 complex, components of the COPII budding machinery. However, the signal was required at a subsequent concentration step preceding vesicle fission. By using green fluorescence protein-tagged VSV-G to image movement in a single cell, we found that VSV-G lacking the DXE code fails to be concentrated into COPII vesicles. As a result, the normal 5-10-fold increase in the steady-state concentration of VSV-G in downstream pre-Golgi intermediates and Golgi compartments was lost. These results demonstrate for the first time that inactivation of the DXE signal uncouples early cargo selection steps from concentration into COPII vesicles. We propose that two sequential steps are required for efficient export from the endoplasmic reticulum.

Abstract
Guanine nucleotide dissociation inhibitor (GDI) regulates the recycling of Rab GTPases involved in vesicle targeting and fusion. We have analyzed the requirement for conserved amino acid residues in the binding of Rab1A and the function of GDI in transport of cargo between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the Golgi apparatus. Using a new approach to monitor GDI-Rab interactions based on the change in fluorescence associated with the release of methylanthraniloyl guanosine di(tri)phosphate-GDP (mGDP) from Rab, we show that residues previously implicated in the binding of the synapse-specific Rab3A, including Gln-236, Arg-240, and Thr-248, are essential for the binding of Rab1A. Mutation of each of these residues has potent effects on the ability of GDI to remove Rab1A from membranes and inhibit ER to Golgi transport in vitro. Given the sequence divergence between Rab1A and 3A (35% identity), these residues are proposed to play a general role in GDI function in the cell. In contrast, several other residues found within or flanking the Rab-binding region were found to have differential effects in the recognition and recycling of Rab1A and 3A, and therefore direct selective interaction of GDI with individual Rab proteins. Intriguingly, mutation of one residue, Arg-70, led to a reduction of Rab1A binding, failed to extract Rab1A from membranes in vitro, yet bound membranes tightly and potently inhibited ER to Golgi transport. These results provide evidence that novel membrane-associated factor(s) mediate Rab-independent GDI interaction with membranes.

Abstract
p53/58 is a transmembrane protein that continuously recycles between the ER and pre-Golgi intermediates composed of vesicular-tubular clusters (VTCs) found in the cell periphery and at the cis face of the Golgi complex. We have generated an antibody that uniquely recognizes the p53/58 cytoplasmic tail. Here we present evidence that this antibody arrests the anterograde transport of vesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein and leads to the accumulation of p58 in pre-Golgi intermediates. Consistent with a role for the KKXX retrieval motif found at the cytoplasmic carboxyl terminus of p53/58 in retrograde traffic, inhibition of transport through VTCs correlates with the ability of the antibody to block recruitment of COPI coats to the p53/58 cytoplasmic tail and to p53/58-containing membranes. We suggest that p53/58 function may be required for the coupled exchange of COPII for COPI coats during segregation of anterograde and retrograde transported proteins.

Abstract
The crystal structure of the bovine alpha-isoform of Rab GDP-dissociation inhibitor (GDI), which functions in vesicle-membrane transport to recycle and regulate Rab GTPases, has been determined to a resolution of 1.81 A. GDI is constructed of two main structural units, a large complex multisheet domain I and a smaller alpha-helical domain II. The structural organization of domain I is surprisingly closely related to FAD-containing monooxygenases and oxidases. Sequence-conserved regions common to GDI and the choroideraemia gene product, which delivers Rab to catalytic subunits of Rab geranylgeranyltransferase II, are clustered on one face of the molecule. The two most sequence-conserved regions, which form a compact structure at the apex of GDI, are shown by site-directed mutagenesis to play a critical role in the binding of Rab proteins.

Abstract
PURPOSE Apoptosis is the distinctive form of programmed cell death that complements cell proliferation in maintaining normal tissue homeostasis. The significance of constitutive apoptosis in the development and progression of transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder has yet to be investigated. In the present study, the incidence of baseline apoptosis and the expression of 2 genes regulating this molecular process, bcl-2 and TGF-beta 1, as well as the level of cell proliferation, were examined by an intensive immunohistochemical analysis in normal bladder and bladder cancer specimens. MATERIALS AND METHODS Apoptosis was detected by in situ end-labeling of fragmented DNA using the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase reaction in 45 paraffin-embedded primary transitional cell carcinoma specimens, 9 metastatic lymph nodes and 5 normal bladder specimens. The proliferation status of the tumor cells among the same bladder cancer specimens was evaluated by using a monoclonal antibody that recognizes the proliferation-associated nuclear antigen, Ki-67. RESULTS The apoptotic index of normal transitional epithelium (0.06%) was significantly lower than that of all grades of transitional bladder carcinoma (p = 0.006). Although the apoptotic index of transitional carcinomas increased with increasing grade, this difference failed to achieve statistical significance, ranging from 0.54 +/- .23% in grade I to 1.24 +/- .77% in grade III. The proliferative index, as determined by Ki-67 positivity, also increased with increasing grades of tumor (12.8 +/- 8.4% in grade I to 22.6 +/- 15.2% in grade III) and was significantly greater than in normal urothelium (0.64 +/- 0.52%, p = 0.003). Bcl-2 expression was significantly lower in the normal transitional epithelium and in the well and moderately differentiated tumors (grades I-II) when compared with poorly differentiated (grade III) tumors (p = .004). The incidence of bcl-2 expression in all bladder specimens analyzed was uniformly low (< 5.3%). Transforming growth factor-beta 1 expression was not detected in any of the normal bladder specimens, primary tumors, or metastatic lymph nodes analyzed. CONCLUSIONS The present findings revealed that no statistically significant correlation exists between the frequency of apoptosis and the pathological stage of bladder tumors, while they clearly demonstrate a strong direct correlation between an increased rate of cell proliferation and bladder cancer progression.

Abstract
X-ray quality crystals of Rab guanine nucleotide dissociation inhibitor (RabGDI) from bovine brain expressed in Escherichia coli have been obtained from 1.73 M ammonium sulfate. The crystals are prismatic long rods and belong to the monoclinic space group P21 with approximate cell dimensions a = 91.9 A, b = 43.5 A, c = 63.2 A, beta = 104.5 degrees and one molecule per asymmetric unit. The crystals are stable in the X-ray beam and diffract to at least 2.3 A. Reverse screening, streak seeding and macroseeding methods were used to obtain and improve the crystals.

Abstract
Syntaxins are a family of vesicular transport receptors that are involved in membrane traffic through both the constitutive and regulated secretory pathways. Syntaxins 1A/B,2,3, and 4 are principally associated with the plasma membrane. Two of the syntaxins, 1A and 1B, have been suggested to be the docking receptors for synaptic vesicles with the presynaptic membrane. The most distant member of the family, syntaxin 5, has been found in the Golgi region and has significant homology (35% identity) with Sed5p, an essential protein in yeast which is required for vesicular transport from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the Golgi stack. Here we present evidence that syntaxin 5 performs an analogous function in ER to Golgi transport in mammalian cells. Transient expression of an hemagglutinin-tagged full-length clone of syntaxin 5 and a truncated mutant lacking the transmembrane domain inhibited the transport of vesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein to the Golgi stack. Under these conditions, vesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein accumulated in pre-Golgi intermediates, which were strongly enriched in syntaxin 5. Our results suggest that syntaxin 5 is the functional mammalian homologue of Sed5p and provides evidence for its role in regulating the potential targeting and/or fusion of carrier vesicles following export from the ER.

Abstract
Rab1 is a small GTPase regulating vesicular traffic between early compartments of the secretory pathway. To explore the role of rab1 we have analyzed the function of a mutant (rab1a[S25N]) containing a substitution which perturbs Mg2+ coordination and reduces the affinity for GTP, resulting in a form which is likely to be restricted to the GDP-bound state. The rab1a(S25N) mutant led to a marked reduction in protein export from the ER in vivo and in vitro, indicating that a guanine nucleotide exchange protein (GEP) is critical for the recruitment of rab1 during vesicle budding. The mutant protein required posttranslational isoprenylation for inhibition and behaved as a competitive inhibitor of wild-type rab1 function. Both rab1a and rab1b (92% identity) were able to antagonize the inhibitory activity of the rab1a(S25N) mutant, suggesting that these two isoforms are functionally interchangeable. The rab1 mutant also inhibited transport between Golgi compartments and resulted in an apparent loss of the Golgi apparatus, suggesting that Golgi integrity is coupled to rab1 function in vesicular traffic.

Abstract
We have isolated and sequenced cDNA clones corresponding to the entire coding sequences of the human lysosomal membrane glycoproteins, lamp-1 and lamp-2 (h-lamp-1 and h-lamp-2). The deduced amino acid sequences indicate that h-lamp-1 and h-lamp-2 consist of 416 and 408 amino acid residues, respectively, and suggest that 27 and 28 NH2-terminal residues are cleavable signal peptides. The major portions of both h-lamp-1 and h-lamp-2 reside on the luminal side of the lysosome and are heavily glycosylated by N-glycans: h-lamp-1 and h-lamp-2 were found to contain 19 and 16 potential N-glycosylation sites, respectively. The findings are consistent with the results obtained by endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase F treatment of h-lamp-1 and h-lamp-2 precursors, described in the preceding paper (Carlsson, S. R., Roth, J., Piller, F., and Fukuda, M. (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 18911-18919). These N-glycosylation sites are clustered into two domains separated by a hinge-like structure enriched with proline and serine in h-lamp-1 or proline and threonine in h-lamp-2. The two domains of h-lamp-1 on each side of the hinge region are homologous to each other, whereas no such homology was detected between the two domains of h-lamp-2. Both proteins have one putative transmembrane domain consisting of 24 hydrophobic amino acids near the COOH terminus, and contain a short cytoplasmic segment composed of 11 amino acid residues at the COOH-terminal end. Comparison of h-lamp-1 and h-lamp-2 sequences reveal strong homology between the two molecules, particularly in the proximity to the COOH-terminal end. It is possible that this portion is important for targeting the molecules to lysosomes. These results also suggest that lamp-1 and lamp-2 are evolutionarily related. Comparison of known lamp-1 sequences among different species, on the other hand, show that human lamp-1 has more similarity to lamp-1 from other species than to human lamp-2. This fact, taken together with the finding that h-lamp-2 lacks repeating domains, suggests that lamp-1 and lamp-2 diverged from a putative ancestor gene in early stages of evolution. These results also suggest that lamp-1 and lamp-2 probably have distinctly separate functions despite the fact that they share many structural features.
