Abstract

Double membrane structure, autophagosome, is formed de novo in the process of autophagy in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and many Apg proteins participate in this process. To further understand autophagy, we analyzed the involvement of factors engaged in the secretory pathway VSports手机版. First, we showed that Sec18p (N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion protein, NSF) and Vti1p (soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion protein attachment protein, SNARE), and soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion protein receptor are required for fusion of the autophagosome to the vacuole but are not involved in autophagosome formation. Second, Sec12p was shown to be essential for autophagy but not for the cytoplasm to vacuole-targeting (Cvt) (pathway, which shares mostly the same machinery with autophagy. Subcellular fractionation and electron microscopic analyses showed that Cvt vesicles, but not autophagosomes, can be formed in sec12 cells. Three other coatmer protein (COPII) mutants, sec16, sec23, and sec24, were also defective in autophagy. The blockage of autophagy in these mutants was not dependent on transport from endoplasmic reticulum-to-Golgi, because mutations in two other COPII genes, SEC13 and SEC31, did not affect autophagy. These results demonstrate the requirement for subgroup of COPII proteins in autophagy. This evidence demonstrating the involvement of Sec proteins in the mechanism of autophagosome formation is crucial for understanding membrane flow during the process. .

Sec18p and Vti1p are essential for the autophagy. (A) Cells expressing Pho8Δ60p (wild-type [wt], sec18, sec17, vti1-11, and cdc48-3) cultured in YPD at 23°C (open bar) were shifted to SD(-N) and cultured for 4 h at 23°C (shaded bar) or 34°C (filled bar). The ALP activity of the lysate was measured to estimate autophagic activity. (B) Time course of autophagy. Wild-type, sec18, sec17, and vti1-11 cultured in YPD at 23°C were shifted to SD(-N) at 23°C (circle), 34°C (square), or 37°C (triangle). Cells cultured in SD(-N) for 3 h were shifted from 23 to 34°C (open circle), from 34 to 23°C (open square), or from 37 to 23°C (open triangle). (C) Recovery of autophagy in sec18. Wild-type (wt) and sec18 cells cultured in YPD at 23°C were shifted to SD(-N) at 23°C (wt, open circle; sec18, filled circle) or 30°C (sec18, filled square). sec18 cells cultured in SD(-N) at 30°C for 2 h were shifted to 23°C (open square).

Accumulation of autophagosomes in sec18 and vti1 mutants. (A) Fractionation of autophagosomes and Cvt vesicles. Δypt7 cells growing in YPD or Δypt7 cells and Δypt7Δapg7 cells starved in SD(-N) were converted to spheroplasts and lysed. Cleared lysates were obtained by centrifugation at 500 × g for 5 min and were then centrifuged at 13,000 × g for 15 min to generate the LSP. The supernatants were further centrifuged at 100,000 × g for 1 h to separate the HSP and HSS. Each fraction was treated with 100 μg/ml proteinase K (PK) with or without 1% Triton X-100 (TX) and then analyzed by immunoblotting with antiserum to API. (B) Biochemical detection of autophagosomes in sec18 and vti1-11. Δypt7 and Δypt7Δapg7 cells were cultured at 37°C, and sec18 and vti1-11 were cultured at 23 or 37°C in SD(-N) for 3 h. Cell lysis under milder conditions, subcellular fractionation, and protease treatment were performed as described in MATERIALS AND METHODS. Each sample was subjected to SDS-PAGE and immunoblotting with anti-API serum. Precursor (pro) and mature forms (m) of API are indicated. d, the proteinase K digestion products of proAPI.

Fractionation of autophagosomes and Cvt vesicles by density gradient centrifugation. (A) Δypt7, Δypt7Δapg7, and Δypt7Δcvt9 cells were cultured in YPD or SD(-N) at 30°C. The LSP fractions were prepared as described in Figure 2 and were loaded on top of a 10–50% OptiPrep gradient and centrifuged for 16 h at 174,000 × g. Fourteen fractions were collected from the top of the tubes. An equal volume of each fraction was subjected to immunoblotting with anti-API serum. As a control, one-sixth of the cell lysate (total) and half of the LSP were used. Organelle markers of the vacuole (proteinase B, PrB), endosomes (Pep12p), and mitochondria (F1β) were detected by immunoblotting of starved Δypt7 cells and estimated by densitometry. (B) The relative amounts of proAPI and Pho8Δ60p in fractions 3 and 4 or fractions 9–11 in the density gradients in A were determined by immunoblotting with their respective antisera. (C) Fractions 3 and 4 from starved cells (AP) or fractions 9–11 from YPD-grown cells (Cvt) in A were pooled, treated with proteinase K (PK) with or without Triton X-100 (TX), and then subjected to immunoblotting with anti-API or anti-Bmh1p antiserum.
