1,The Compartmentalization in Eukaryotic Cells
?Membranes divide the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells into
distinct compartments.
Three categories in eukaryotic cells:
(1) the endomembrane system,ER,Golgi complex,Lys.,
secretory vesicles,
(2) the cytosol.
(3) mitochondria,chloroplasts,peroxisomes,and the nucleus,
?Membrane-bound structures (organelles) are found in all
eukaryotic cells.
?Cytoplasmic matrix and its functions
?Cytoplasmic Matrix,The region of fluid content
of the cytoplasm outside of the membranous
organelles,Aqueous solution of large and small
molecules including filaments of cytoskeleton which
act as organizer for some order.
?The Cytosol is the site of protein synthesis and
degradation or modification,It also performs most
of the cell’s intermediary metabolism.
A,Cytoplasmic matrix (Cytosol) and
Endomembrane System
Functions of cytoplasmic matrix:
The protein synthesis,degradation and modification.
Cells carefully monitor the amount of misfolded proteins,An
accumulation of misfolded proteins in the cytosol triggers a heat-
shock response,which stimulates the transcription of genes
encoding cytosolic chaperones that help to refold the proteins.
B,Endomembrane System

C,The Dynamic Nature of the Endomembrane System
?Most organelles are part of a dynamic system in which
vesicles move between compartments.
?Biosynthetic parthways move proteins,carbohydrates
and lipids within the cell.
?Secretory pathways discharge proteins from cells.
?Endocytic parthways move materials into cells.
?Sorting signals are recognized by receptors and target
proteins to specific sites.
D,A few approaches to the study of cytomembranes
?Insights gained from autoradiography;
?Insights gained from the biochemical analysis of
subcellular fractions;
?Insights gained from the study of genetic mutants;
The dynamic activities of endomembrane systems
are highly conserved despite the structural
diversity of different cell types.

2,The structure and functions of Endoplasmic
Reticulum(ER)
Rough endoplasmic reticulum and Smooth endoplasmic reticulum
RER has ribosomes on the cytosolic side of continuous,flattened sacs(cisternae);
SER is an interconnecting network of tubular membrane elements.
Microsome(100-200nm) rER of pancreatic cells
Microsomes are heterogeneous mixtures of similar-sized vesicles,formed from
membranes of the ER and Golgi complex,Microsomes retain activity during
purification,allowing studies of function and composition.
A,Functions of the
rER
? Proteins synthesized
on ribosomes of rER
include:
? secretory proteins,
? integral membrane
proteins,
? soluble proteins of
organelles.
? Modification and processing of newly synthesized
proteins,glycosylation in the rER;
N-linked,linked to the amide nitrogen of asparagine (ER)
O-linked,linked to the hydroxyl group serine or threonine via GalNac (in Golgi)
The precursor of 14
residues is the same
in plants,animals,
and single-celled
eukaryotes
then remove 3
glucoses and 1
mannose in the ER
?Quality control of of newly synthesized proteins---The
role of N-linked glycosylation in ER protein folding
Quality control,ensuring that misfolded proteins do not leave ER
The lumen of rER contains:
?Bip and calnexin (chaperones),
that recognize and bind to unfolded
or misfolded proteins and give them
correct conformation;
?Protein disulfide isomerase
( PDI ) ;
?GT(glucosyl-transferase,
monitoring enenzyme ) recognize
unfolded or misfolded proteins and
adds a glucose to the end of oligo.,
?Synthesis of membrane lipids
? Most membrane lipids are synthesized
enterly within the ER.
? There are two exceptions:
(1) sphingomyelin and glycolipids,
(begins in ER; completed in Golgi);
(2) some of the unique lipids of the Mit
and Chl membranes (themself).
? The membranes of different 0rganelles
have markedly different lipids
composition.
? Transport by budding,ER→GC, Ly,PM
? Transport by phospholipid exchange
proteins(PEP),ER→other organelles
( including Mit and Chl)

B,Functions of the sER
?Synthesis of steroids in endocrine cells.
?Detoxification of organic compounds in liver cells.
System of oxygenases---cytochrome p450 family
?Release of glucose 6-phosphate in liver cells.
?Sequestration of Ca2+.

3,The structure and functions of Golgi complex
A.The polarity of Golgi complex
a) Cis cisternae of Golgi complex,reduced osmium tetroxide(OsO4);
b) Reaction for enzyme mannosidase II,localized in the medial;
c) Reaction for enzyme nucleoside diphosphatase,localized in the trans cisternae.
?Regional differences in membrane composition
across the Golgi stack
B,The Functions of Golgi complex
?Glycosylation in
the Golgi complex
Golgi complex
plays a key role in
the assembly of the
carbohydrate
component of
glycoproteins and
glycolipids.
The core carbohydrate of N-linked oligosaccharides is
assembled in the rER.
Modifications to N-linked oligosaccharides are completed in the
Golgi complex.
O-linked oligosaccharides takes place in Golgi complex.

After R,Kornfeld
and S,Kornfeld,
1985,Annu,Rev,
Biochem,45:631
?What is the purpose of glycosylation?
N-linked glycosylation is prevalent in all eucaryotes,
but is absent from procaryotes.
?It don’t require a template,There is an important difference
between the construction of an oligosaccharide and the synthesis of
DNA,RNA,and protein.
?Important functions:
(1) One might suspect that they function to aid folding and the
transport process; for example,carbohydrate as a marker during protein
folding in ER and the use of carbohydrate-binding lectins in guiding ER-to-
Golgi transport.
(2) Limit the approach of other macromolecules to the protein surface,
more resistant to digestion by proteases.
(3) Regulatory roles in signaling through the cell-surface receptor
Notch,to allows these cells to respond selectively to activating stimuli.
?The Golgi
networks are
processing and
sorting stations
where proteins
are modified,
segregated and
then shipped in
different
directions.
?Golgi complex and cell’s secretion
Continual,unregulated
discharge of material
from the cells
The discharge of
products stored in
cytoplasmic granules,
in response to
appropriate stimuli.
?Vesivular transport within the Golgi apparatus:
Two views,
cisternal maturation model and vesicular transport model
Two possible models explaining the organization of the Golgi
complex and the transport from one cisterna to the next.

of lysosomes,Electron micro-graphs
of two sections of a cell stained to reveal
the location of acid phosphatase,a
marker enzyme for lysosomes,The larger
membrane-bounded organelles,
containing dense precipitates of lead
phosphate,are lysosomes,whose
diverse morphology reflects variations in
the amount and nature of the material
they are digesting,The precipitates are
produced when tissue fixed with
glutaraldehyde is incubated with a
phosphatase substrate in the presence of
lead ions,Two small vesicles thought to
be carrying acid hydrolases from the
Golgi apparatus are indicated by red
arrows in the top panel,(Courtesy of
Daniel S,Friend.)
② Lysosomes contain plenty acid hydrolases that
can digest every kind of biological molecule,
---the principal sites of intracellular digestion.

Figure 13-18 The low pH in lysosomes and endosomes,Proteins labeled
with a pH-sensitive fluorescent probe (fluorescein) and then endocytosed by
cells can be used to measure the pH in endosomes and lysosomes,The
different colors reflect the pH that the fluorescent probe encounters in these
organelles,The pH in lysosomes (red) is about 5,while the pH in various types
of endosomes (blue and green) ranges from 5.5 to 6.5,(Courtesy of Fred
Maxfield and Kenneth Dunn.)
Figure 13-20 The plant cell vacuole,This electron micrograph of cells in a
young tobacco leaf shows that the cytosol is confined by the enormous vacuole
to a thin layer,containing chloroplasts,pressed against the cell wall,The
membrane of the vacuole is called the tonoplast,(Courtesy of J,Burgess.)
B,The Functions of Lysosomes
?Lysosomes are involved in three major cell functions:
① phagocytosis; ② autophagy; ③ endocytosis.
Primary lys fuse with either phagocytic or autophagic vesicles,forming
residual bodies that either undergo exocytosis or are retained in the cell as
lipofuscin granules.
C,Lysosomes and Diseases
Disorders resulting from defects in lysosomal function:
① Autolysis,A break or leak in the membrane of lys releases
digestive enzymes into the cell which damages the surrounding
tissues (Silicosis).
② Lysosomal storage diseases are due to the absence of one or
more lysosomal enzymes,and resulting in accumulation of
material in lysosomes as large inclusions.
One severe type of the disease is I-cell disease (inclusion –
cell disease,GlcNAc-Phosphotransferase gene mutant).
Tay-Sachs disease results from a deficiency of the enzyme (-
N-hexosaminidase A) whose function is to degrade gangliosides,
a major component of brain cell membranes.

D,Biogenesis of Lysosomes
Figure 6-23 The transport of newly synthesized lysosomal hydrolases to lysosomes,The
precursors of lysosomal hydrolases are covalently modified by the addition of mannose 6-phosphate in the CGN,
They then become segregated from all other types of proteins in the TGN because a specific class of transport
vesicles budding from the TGN concentrates mannose 6-phosphate-specific receptors,which bind the modified
lysosomal hydrolases,These vesicles subsequently fuse with late endosomes,At the low pH of the late endosome
the hydrolases dissociate from the receptors,which are recycled to the Golgi apparatus for further rounds of
transport,In late endosomes the phosphate is removed from the mannose on the hydrolases,further ensuring that
the hydrolases do not return to the Golgi apparatus with the receptor,

Figure 6-40,The mannose 6-phosphate (M6P) pathway,the major route for targeting
lysosomal enzymes to lysosomes,Precursors of lysosomal enzymes migrate from the rER to the cis-Golgi where
mannose residues are phosphorylated,In the TGN,the phosphorylated enzymes bind to M6P receptors,which direct the
enzymes into vesicles coated with the clathrin,The clathrin lattice surrounding these vesicles is rapidly depolymerized to its
subunits,and the uncoated transport vesicles fuse with late endosomes,Within this low-pH compartment,the phosphorylated
enzymes dissociate from the M6P receptors and then are dephosphorylated,The receptors recycle back to the Golgi,and the
enzymes are incorporated into a different transport vesicle that buds from the late endosome and soon fuses with a lysosome,
The sorting of lysosomal enzymes from secretory proteins thus occurs in the TGN,and these two classes of proteins are
incorporated into different vesicles,which take different routes after they bud from the Golgi.[G,Griffiths et al.,Cell 52:329;
S,Kornfeld,Annu,Rev,Biochem,61:307; and G,Griffiths and J,Gruenberg,Trends Cell Biol,1:5]
5,Protein Sorting
A,Overview of sorting of nuclear-encoded
proteins in eukaryotic cells
?Proteins are imported into organelles by three
mechanisms:
?Gated Transport,Transport through nuclear pores
?Transmembrane transport,ER,Mit,Chl,Per
?Vesicular transport,ER-Golgi-PM-Lys,Endosome
Road map of protein sorting
?Protein sorting,Protein molecules move from the
cytosol to their target organelles or cell surface
directed by the sorting signals in the proteins.
?Signal peptides and Signal patches
Figure 6-8 Two ways that a sorting signal can be built into a protein.(A) The
signal resides in a single discrete stretch of amino acid sequence,called a signal
peptide,that is exposed in the folded protein,Signal peptides often occur at the end of
the polypeptide chain,but they can also be located elsewhere,(B) A signal patch can be
formed by the juxtaposition of amino acids from regions that are physically separated
before the protein folds; alternatively,separate patches on the surface of the folded
protein that are spaced a fixed distance apart could form the signal,
Gated transport:
Through gated pores—Nuclear pores;
Nuclear localization signal (NLS);
Folded and assembly form to transport.
Transmembrane transport
ER signal sequence,
Mit,Chl,Per,Leader sequence;
Through translocon on the membrane;

?ER signal sequence,Typically 15-30 amino acids:
Consist of three domains,a positively charged N-terminal region,a
central hydrophobic region,and a polar region adjoining the site where
cleavage from the mature protein will take place,A signal sequence on
nascent seretory proteins targets them to the ER and is then cleaved off
?SRP receptor (GTP binding protein)
SRP have three main active sites:
One that recognizes and binds to
ER signal sequence;
One that interacts with the
ribosome to block further
translation;
One that binds to the ER

The sorting signal
of VSV
glycoproteins,
Asp-X-Gln或 DXE
Figure 6-43,The sorting of proteins destined for the apical and basolateral plasma
membranes of epithelial cells,When cultured MDCK cells are infected simultaneously with
VSV and influenza virus,the VSV glycoprotein is found only on the basolateral membrane,
whereas the HA glycoprotein of the influenza virus is found only on the apical membrane,Like
these viral proteins,some cellular proteins are sorted directly to the apical membrane and others
to the basolateral membrane via specific transport vesicles that bud from the trans-Golgi network,
In certain other polarized cells,some apical and basolateral proteins are transported together to
the basolateral surface; the apical proteins then move selectively,by endocytosis and transcytosis,
to the apical membrane,[K,Simons et al.,Cell 62:207; K,Mostov et al.,JCB,116:577]
?Start-transfer Sequence &
Stop-transfer Sequence
Figure 6-24,Synthesis and insertion into the ER membrane of the GLUT1 glucose
transporter and other proteins with multiple transmembrane ?-helical segments.
The N-terminal ? helix functions as an internal,uncleaved signal-anchor sequence (red),directing binding of
the nascent polypeptide chain to the rER membrane and initiating cotranslational insertion,Both SRP and the
SRP receptor are involved in this step,Following synthesis of helix 2,which functions as a stop-transfer
membrane-anchor sequence,extrusion of the chain through the translocon into the ER lumen ceases,The first
two ? helices then move out of the translocon into the ER bilayer,anchoring the nascent chain as an ?-helical
hairpin,The C-terminus of the nascent chain continues to grow in the cytosol,Subsequent ?-helical hairpins
could insert similarly,although SRP and the SRP receptor are required only for insertion of the first
signalanchor sequence,Although only six transmembrane ? helices are depicted here,GLUT1 and proteins
of similar structure have twelve or more,[H,P,Wessels et al.,Cell 55:61.]

?Membranes divide the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells into
distinct compartments.
Three categories in eukaryotic cells:

secretory vesicles,
(2) the cytosol.
(3) mitochondria,chloroplasts,peroxisomes,and the nucleus,
?Membrane-bound structures (organelles) are found in all

organelles,Aqueous solution of large and small
molecules including filaments of cytoskeleton which

degradation or modification,It also performs most
of the cell’s intermediary metabolism.
A,Cytoplasmic matrix (Cytosol) and
Endomembrane System
Functions of cytoplasmic matrix:
The protein synthesis,degradation and modification.
Cells carefully monitor the amount of misfolded proteins,An
accumulation of misfolded proteins in the cytosol triggers a heat-
shock response,which stimulates the transcription of genes
encoding cytosolic chaperones that help to refold the proteins.

?Quality control of of newly synthesized proteins---The
role of N-linked glycosylation in ER protein folding
Quality control,ensuring that misfolded proteins do not leave ER
The lumen of rER contains:
?Bip and calnexin (chaperones),
that recognize and bind to unfolded
or misfolded proteins and give them
correct conformation;
?Protein disulfide isomerase
( PDI ) ;
?GT(glucosyl-transferase,
monitoring enenzyme ) recognize
unfolded or misfolded proteins and
adds a glucose to the end of oligo.,
?Synthesis of membrane lipids
? Most membrane lipids are synthesized
enterly within the ER.
? There are two exceptions:
(1) sphingomyelin and glycolipids,
(begins in ER; completed in Golgi);
(2) some of the unique lipids of the Mit
and Chl membranes (themself).
? The membranes of different 0rganelles
have markedly different lipids
composition.
? Transport by budding,ER→GC, Ly,PM
? Transport by phospholipid exchange

?Glycosylation in
the Golgi complex
Golgi complex
plays a key role in
the assembly of the
carbohydrate
component of
glycoproteins and
glycolipids.
The core carbohydrate of N-linked oligosaccharides is
assembled in the rER.
Modifications to N-linked oligosaccharides are completed in the
Golgi complex.

?What is the purpose of glycosylation?
N-linked glycosylation is prevalent in all eucaryotes,
but is absent from procaryotes.
?It don’t require a template,There is an important difference
between the construction of an oligosaccharide and the synthesis of
DNA,RNA,and protein.
?Important functions:
(1) One might suspect that they function to aid folding and the
transport process; for example,carbohydrate as a marker during protein
folding in ER and the use of carbohydrate-binding lectins in guiding ER-to-
Golgi transport.
(2) Limit the approach of other macromolecules to the protein surface,
more resistant to digestion by proteases.
(3) Regulatory roles in signaling through the cell-surface receptor
Notch,to allows these cells to respond selectively to activating stimuli.
?The Golgi
networks are

are modified,

phosphatase substrate in the presence of
lead ions,Two small vesicles thought to
be carrying acid hydrolases from the

with a pH-sensitive fluorescent probe (fluorescein) and then endocytosed by
cells can be used to measure the pH in endosomes and lysosomes,The
different colors reflect the pH that the fluorescent probe encounters in these
organelles,The pH in lysosomes (red) is about 5,while the pH in various types
of endosomes (blue and green) ranges from 5.5 to 6.5,(Courtesy of Fred
Maxfield and Kenneth Dunn.)
Figure 13-20 The plant cell vacuole,This electron micrograph of cells in a
young tobacco leaf shows that the cytosol is confined by the enormous vacuole
to a thin layer,containing chloroplasts,pressed against the cell wall,The
membrane of the vacuole is called the tonoplast,(Courtesy of J,Burgess.)
B,The Functions of Lysosomes
?Lysosomes are involved in three major cell functions:
① phagocytosis; ② autophagy; ③ endocytosis.
Primary lys fuse with either phagocytic or autophagic vesicles,forming
residual bodies that either undergo exocytosis or are retained in the cell as
lipofuscin granules.
C,Lysosomes and Diseases
Disorders resulting from defects in lysosomal function:
① Autolysis,A break or leak in the membrane of lys releases
digestive enzymes into the cell which damages the surrounding
tissues (Silicosis).
② Lysosomal storage diseases are due to the absence of one or
more lysosomal enzymes,and resulting in accumulation of
material in lysosomes as large inclusions.
One severe type of the disease is I-cell disease (inclusion –
cell disease,GlcNAc-Phosphotransferase gene mutant).
Tay-Sachs disease results from a deficiency of the enzyme (-
N-hexosaminidase A) whose function is to degrade gangliosides,
a major component of brain cell membranes.

D,Biogenesis of Lysosomes
Figure 6-23 The transport of newly synthesized lysosomal hydrolases to lysosomes,The
precursors of lysosomal hydrolases are covalently modified by the addition of mannose 6-phosphate in the CGN,
They then become segregated from all other types of proteins in the TGN because a specific class of transport
vesicles budding from the TGN concentrates mannose 6-phosphate-specific receptors,which bind the modified
lysosomal hydrolases,These vesicles subsequently fuse with late endosomes,At the low pH of the late endosome
the hydrolases dissociate from the receptors,which are recycled to the Golgi apparatus for further rounds of
transport,In late endosomes the phosphate is removed from the mannose on the hydrolases,further ensuring that
the hydrolases do not return to the Golgi apparatus with the receptor,

Figure 6-40,The mannose 6-phosphate (M6P) pathway,the major route for targeting
lysosomal enzymes to lysosomes,Precursors of lysosomal enzymes migrate from the rER to the cis-Golgi where
mannose residues are phosphorylated,In the TGN,the phosphorylated enzymes bind to M6P receptors,which direct the
enzymes into vesicles coated with the clathrin,The clathrin lattice surrounding these vesicles is rapidly depolymerized to its
subunits,and the uncoated transport vesicles fuse with late endosomes,Within this low-pH compartment,the phosphorylated
enzymes dissociate from the M6P receptors and then are dephosphorylated,The receptors recycle back to the Golgi,and the
enzymes are incorporated into a different transport vesicle that buds from the late endosome and soon fuses with a lysosome,
The sorting of lysosomal enzymes from secretory proteins thus occurs in the TGN,and these two classes of proteins are
incorporated into different vesicles,which take different routes after they bud from the Golgi.[G,Griffiths et al.,Cell 52:329;
S,Kornfeld,Annu,Rev,Biochem,61:307; and G,Griffiths and J,Gruenberg,Trends Cell Biol,1:5]
5,Protein Sorting
A,Overview of sorting of nuclear-encoded
proteins in eukaryotic cells
?Proteins are imported into organelles by three
mechanisms:
?Gated Transport,Transport through nuclear pores
?Transmembrane transport,ER,Mit,Chl,Per
?Vesicular transport,ER-Golgi-PM-Lys,Endosome
Road map of protein sorting
?Protein sorting,Protein molecules move from the
cytosol to their target organelles or cell surface
directed by the sorting signals in the proteins.
?Signal peptides and Signal patches
Figure 6-8 Two ways that a sorting signal can be built into a protein.(A) The
signal resides in a single discrete stretch of amino acid sequence,called a signal
peptide,that is exposed in the folded protein,Signal peptides often occur at the end of
the polypeptide chain,but they can also be located elsewhere,(B) A signal patch can be
formed by the juxtaposition of amino acids from regions that are physically separated
before the protein folds; alternatively,separate patches on the surface of the folded
protein that are spaced a fixed distance apart could form the signal,
Gated transport:
Through gated pores—Nuclear pores;
Nuclear localization signal (NLS);
Folded and assembly form to transport.
Transmembrane transport
ER signal sequence,
Mit,Chl,Per,Leader sequence;
Through translocon on the membrane;

cleavage from the mature protein will take place,A signal sequence on

Figure 6-43,The sorting of proteins destined for the apical and basolateral plasma
membranes of epithelial cells,When cultured MDCK cells are infected simultaneously with
VSV and influenza virus,the VSV glycoprotein is found only on the basolateral membrane,
whereas the HA glycoprotein of the influenza virus is found only on the apical membrane,Like
these viral proteins,some cellular proteins are sorted directly to the apical membrane and others
to the basolateral membrane via specific transport vesicles that bud from the trans-Golgi network,
In certain other polarized cells,some apical and basolateral proteins are transported together to
the basolateral surface; the apical proteins then move selectively,by endocytosis and transcytosis,
to the apical membrane,[K,Simons et al.,Cell 62:207; K,Mostov et al.,JCB,116:577]
?Start-transfer Sequence &
Stop-transfer Sequence
Figure 6-24,Synthesis and insertion into the ER membrane of the GLUT1 glucose
transporter and other proteins with multiple transmembrane ?-helical segments.
The N-terminal ? helix functions as an internal,uncleaved signal-anchor sequence (red),directing binding of
the nascent polypeptide chain to the rER membrane and initiating cotranslational insertion,Both SRP and the
SRP receptor are involved in this step,Following synthesis of helix 2,which functions as a stop-transfer
membrane-anchor sequence,extrusion of the chain through the translocon into the ER lumen ceases,The first
two ? helices then move out of the translocon into the ER bilayer,anchoring the nascent chain as an ?-helical
hairpin,The C-terminus of the nascent chain continues to grow in the cytosol,Subsequent ?-helical hairpins
could insert similarly,although SRP and the SRP receptor are required only for insertion of the first
signalanchor sequence,Although only six transmembrane ? helices are depicted here,GLUT1 and proteins
of similar structure have twelve or more,[H,P,Wessels et al.,Cell 55:61.]
