In HeLa cells, Shiga toxin B-subunit is transported from the plasma membrane to endoplasmic reticulum, via early endosomes and Golgi apparatus, circumventing late endocytic pathway. We describe here that in cells derived human monocytes, i.e., macrophages dendritic was internalized a receptor-dependent manner, but retrograde transport biosynthetic/secretory pathway did not occur part of protein degraded lysosomes. These differences correlated with observation associated Triton...

Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 3 is caused by biallelic variations of ABCB4, most often (≥70%) missense. In this study, we examined the effects 12 missense identified in progressive patients. We classified these on basis defects thus and explored potential rescue trafficking‐defective mutants pharmacological means. Variations were reproduced ABCB4 complementary DNA mutants, obtained, expressed HepG2 HEK293 cells. Three either fully (I541F L556R) or largely (Q855L)...

The closely related Rab6 isoforms, Rab6A and Rab6A′, have been shown to regulate vesicular trafficking within the Golgi post‐Golgi compartments, but studies using dominant active or negative mutant suggested conflicting models. Here, we report that reduction in expression of isoform specific small interfering RNA reveals noticeable differences Rab6A′ biological functions. Surprisingly, seems be largely dispensable membrane events, whereas knocking down hampers intracellular transport...

Retrograde transport allows proteins and lipids to leave the endocytic pathway reach other intracellular compartments, such as trans-Golgi network (TGN)/Golgi membranes, endoplasmic reticulum and, in some instances, cytosol. Here, we have used RNA interference against SNARE syntaxin 5 16, combined with recently developed quantitative trafficking assays, morphological approaches cell intoxication analysis show that these are not only required for efficient retrograde of Shiga toxin, but also...

Endosomes along the degradation pathway leading to lysosomes accumulate membranes in their lumen and thus exhibit a characteristic multivesicular appearance. These lumenal typically incorporate down-regulated EGF receptor destined for degradation, but mechanisms that control formation remain poorly characterized. Here, we describe novel quantitative biochemical assay reconstitutes of vesicles within late endosomes vitro. Vesicle budding into endosome was time-, temperature-, pH-,...

Receptor-mediated internalization to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and subsequent retro-translocation cytosol are essential sequential processes required for productive intoxication of susceptible mammalian cells by Shiga-like toxin-1 (SLTx). Recently, it has been proposed that observed association certain ER-directed toxins viruses with detergent-resistant membranes (DRM) may provide a general mechanism their retrograde transport (ER). Here, we show DRM recruitment SLTx bound its...

Abstract Efficient methods for tumor targeting are eagerly awaited and must satisfy several challenges: molecular specificity, transport through physiologic barriers, capacity to withstand extracellular or intracellular degradation inactivation by the immune system. Through interaction with its hosts, intestinal pathogen-produced Shiga toxin has evolved properties that of interest in this context. Its nontoxic B-subunit binds cellular receptor, glycosphingolipid Gb3, which is highly...

The ABCB4 transporter mediates phosphatidylcholine (PC) secretion at the canalicular membrane of hepatocytes and its genetic defects cause biliary diseases. Whereas shares high sequence identity with multidrug transporter, ABCB1, N-terminal domain is poorly conserved, leading us to hypothesize a functional specificity this domain. A database genotyping in large series patients was screened for variations altering residues Identified variants were then expressed cell models investigate their...

The canalicular bile salt export pump (BSEP/ABCB11) of hepatocytes is the main adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-binding cassette (ABC) transporter responsible for acid secretion. Mutations in ABCB11 cause several cholestatic diseases, including progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 2 (PFIC2) often lethal absence liver transplantation. We investigated vitro effect and potential rescue a BSEP mutation by ivacaftor, clinically approved cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance...

Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 3 (PFIC3) is a rare liver disease caused by biallelic variations in ABCB4. Data reporting on the impact of genotype and response to ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) therapy long-term outcomes are scarce.We retrospectively describe cohort 38 patients with PFIC3 median age at last follow-up 19.5 years (range 3.8-53.8).Twenty presented symptoms before 1 year age.

ABCB4 is an ATP-binding cassette transporter expressed at the canalicular membrane of hepatocytes and responsible for translocating phosphatidylcholine into bile. Despite recent cryo-EM structures ABCB4, knowledge about molecular mechanism transport remains fragmented. In this study, we used all-atom dynamics simulations to investigate during its cycle, leveraging both symmetric asymmetric models. Our results demonstrate that composition influences local conformational revealing distinct...

Globotriasosylceramide (Gb3), a neutral glycosphingolipid, is the B-cell differentiation antigen CD77 and acts as receptor for most Shiga toxins, including verotoxin-1 (VT-1). We have shown that both anti-Gb3/CD77 mAb VT-1 induce apoptosis in Burkitt's lymphoma cells. compared apoptotic pathways induced by these two molecules selecting cell lines sensitive to only one of inducers or both.

Like other enveloped viruses, vesicular stomatitis virus infects cells through endosomes. There, the viral envelope undergoes fusion with endosomal membranes, thereby releasing nucleocapsid into cytoplasm and allowing infection to proceed. Previously, we reported that fuses preferentially membrane of vesicles present within multivesicular Then, these intra-endosomal (containing nucleocapsids) are transported late endosomes, where back-fusion endosome limiting delivers cytoplasm.
