Rab proteins, which are ras-like low-molecular-mass GTP-binding proteins, are postulated to act as specific regulators of membrane trafficking in exocytosis and endocytosis. Previously, we reported a 23 kDa tubulovesicle-associated GTP-binding protein in rabbit gastric parietal cells [Basson, Goldenring, Tang, Lewis, Padfield, Jamieson & Modlin (1991) Biochem. J. 279, 43-48]. The major component of the 23 kDa protein is now identified as rab2. Rab2 was co-localized in tubulovesicle membranes from parietal cells. Consistent with GTP-binding activity (as documented before), upon maximal stimulation of parietal cells, rab2 immunoreactivity was redistributed from a 50,000 g to a 4000 g subcellular membrane fraction. The tubulovesicle-associated rab2 behaved as an integral membrane protein, since both 0.5 M-NaCl and 0.1 M-carbonate extraction failed to remove the protein from the tubulovesicle membrane. Utilizing a PCR the rab2 cDNA sequence from rabbit parietal cells was obtained, and it showed only one amino acid difference compared with the human sequence. The results of the present study provide strong evidence that parietal cells possess a rab2 protein which is tightly associated with tubulovesicle membranes.

The mechanism whereby gastrin-type receptor and muscarinic M3-type receptor regulate free intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) was studied in rabbit gastric parietal cells stimulated by either gastrin or carbachol. Both agonists induced a biphasic [Ca2+]i response: a transient [Ca2+]i rise, followed by a sustained steady state depending on extracellular Ca2+. Gastrin and carbachol also caused a rapid and transient increase in Mn2+ influx (a tracer for bivalent-cation entry). Pre-stimulation of cells with one agonist drastically decreased both [Ca2+]i increase and Mn2+ influx induced by the other. Neither diltiazem nor pertussistoxin treatment had any effect on agonist-stimulated Mn2+ entry. Thapsigargin, a Ca(2+)-pump inhibitor, induced a biphasic [Ca2+]i increase, and enhanced the rate of Mn2+ entry. Preincubation of cells with thapsigargin inhibits the [Ca2+]i increase as well as Mn2+ entry stimulated by gastrin or by carbachol. Thapsigargin induced a weak but significant increase in Ins(1,4,5)P3 content, but this agent had no effect on the agonist-evoked Ins(1,4,5)P3 response. In permeabilized parietal cells, Ins(1,4,5)P3 and caffeine caused an immediate Ca2+ release from intracellular pools, followed by a reloading of Ca2+ pools which can be prevented in the presence of thapsigargin. We conclude that (i) gastrin and carbachol mobilize common Ca2+ intracellular stores, (ii) Ca2+ permeability secondary to receptor activation involves neither a voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channel nor a GTP-binding protein from the G1 family, and (iii) agonists regulate common Ca2+ channels in depleting intracellular Ca2+ stores.

Atpase Staining

Parietal cell secretion of acid requires the coordinated fusion of H(+)-K(+)-adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase)-containing tubulovesicles with a secretory canalicular target membrane. We have previously reported the presence of rab2 on parietal cell tubulovesicles (L. H. Tang, S. A. Stoch, I. M. Modlin, and J. R. Goldenring. Biochem. J. 285: 715-719, 1992). Since 60% of the small GTP-binding protein sequences obtained from parietal cells were > 95% homologous with human rab11 (J. R. Goldenring, K. R. Shen, H. D. Vaughan, and I.M. Modlin. J. Biol. Chem. 268: 18419-18422, 1993), we sought to study rab11 in gastric parietal cells. A complete rab11 sequence was obtained, and the deduced amino acid sequence of rabbit rab11 was identical to that for human. Rab11 mRNA was present throughout the gastrointestinal mucosa. mRNA for both rab11 and rab2 were enriched in isolated parietal cells compared with chief cells. A polyclonal antiserum against rab11 labeled a single 25-kDa band in isolated parietal cells. Immunostaining of rat fundic tissue demonstrated prominent staining of parietal cells. Rab11 staining cosegregated with alpha-H(+)-K(+)-ATPase staining in enriched preparations of rabbit parietal cell tubulovesicles. These results suggest that rab11 is enriched in parietal cells and is associated with intracellular tubulovesicles.

Skeletal Disorder

Autophagy (particularly macroautophagy) is a bulk degradation process used by eukaryotic cells in order to maintain adequate energy levels and cellular homeostasis through the delivery of long-lived proteins and organelles to the lysosome, resulting in their degradation. It is becoming increasingly clear that many of the molecular requirements to fulfil autophagy intersect with those of conventional and unconventional membrane trafficking pathways. Of particular interest is the dependence of these processes on multiple members of the Rab family of small GTP binding proteins. Rab33b is a protein that localises to the Golgi apparatus and has suggested functions in both membrane trafficking and autophagic processes. Interestingly, mutations in the RAB33B gene have been reported to cause the severe skeletal disorder, Smith–McCort Dysplasia; however, the molecular basis for Rab33b in this disorder remains to be determined. In this review, we focus on the current knowledge of the participation of Rab33b and its interacting partners in membrane trafficking and macroautophagy, and speculate on how its function, and dysfunction, may contribute to human disease.

The fluorescent Ca2+ indicator fura 2 was used to measure cytosolic free [Ca2+] ([Ca2+]i) in order to obtain information about relative rates of Ca2+ influx into parietal cells during treatment with carbachol (a cholinergic agonist) or thapsigargin (TG, a Ca(2+)-mobilizing agent) or during reloading of the internal Ca2+ stores. In Ca(2+)-containing solutions, carbachol-, TG-, and reloading-stimulated Ca2+ entry exhibited nearly identical sensitivity to La3+ [inhibition constant (Ki) approximately 10 microM] or low pH (pKi approximately 7.0). In experiments in which carbachol and TG were used, there was no additional increase in [Ca2+]i when TG was added to carbachol-treated cells or when carbachol was added to cells previously treated with TG. Thus it is likely that a single Ca2+ entry pathway serves a signaling function as well as a role in refilling the Ca2+ store during reloading. Because the Ca2+ pathway is exquisitely sensitive to pH and serosal pH increases during stimulant-induced H+ secretion (which is activated by increases in [Ca2+]i), this mechanism will exert positive feedback on parietal cells in the intact stomach. When parietal cells were pretreated with carbachol in Ca(2+)-free solutions, reloading was independent of pH and La3+, suggesting that Ca(2+)-containing solutions should be used to determine the properties of the influx pathway.

It has been shown previously that defects in the essential GTP-binding protein, Ypt1p, lead to a block in protein transport from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the Golgi apparatus in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Here we report that four newly discovered suppressors of YPT1 deletion (SLY1-20, SLY2, SLY12, and SLY41) to a varying degree restore ER-to-Golgi transport defects in cells lacking Ypt1p. These suppressors also partially complement the sec21-1 and sec22-3 mutants which lead to a defect early in the secretory pathway. Sly1p-depleted cells, as well as a conditional lethal sly2 null mutant at nonpermissive temperatures, accumulate ER membranes and core-glycosylated invertase and carboxypeptidase Y. The sly2 null mutant under restrictive conditions (37 degrees C) can be rescued by the multicopy suppressor SLY12 and the single-copy suppressor SLY1-20, indicating that these three SLY genes functionally interact. Sly2p is shown to be an integral membrane protein.
