Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Sorting zones of GPI-anchored and non-anchored proteins were visualized in yeast. COPII vesicles, carriers of ER-to-Golgi transport, accumulate at ER exit sites (ERES). GPI-anchored and non-anchored proteins were shown to enter distinct ERES, providing evidence for the presence of sorting zones in the ER. The GPI-anchor lipid contains very long chain ceramide in yeast. In a mutant strain that are deficient in synthesizing very long chain ceramides, GPI-anchored and non-anchored proteins both entered the same ERES, indicating that the chain length of ceramides is critical for the sorting of these proteins at ERES.
