“…4D confocal movies were collected on a Leica SP5 or SP8 microscope using an 80 nm pixel size and a 0.25-0.30 μm Z-step interval and 20-30 optical sections, with a Z-stack collected every 0.5-2.0 s. Static images were converted to 16-bit and average projected, then range-adjusted to the minimum and maximum pixel values in ImageJ (http://rsbweb.nih.gov/ij/). To process movies, a Gaussian blur with radius 0.75 pixels was applied in ImageJ to fluorescence channels (Day et al, 2016), which were then deconvolved with Huygens Essential (Scientific Volume Imaging, Hilversum, The Netherlands) using the CMLE (Classical Maximum Likelihood Estimation) algorithm (Day et al, 2017), and then corrected for bleaching using an ImageJ plugin (cmci.embl.de/downloads/bleach_corrector). Movies were converted to hyperstacks and average projected, then range-adjusted to maximize contrast in ImageJ.…”

The endomembrane system consists of the secretory and endocytic pathways, which communicate by transport to and from the trans-Golgi network (TGN). In mammalian cells, the endocytic pathway includes early, late, and recycling endosomes. In budding yeast, different types of endosomes have been described, but the organization of the endocytic pathway has been unclear. We performed a spatial and temporal analysis of yeast endosomal markers and endocytic cargoes. Our results indicate that the yeast TGN also serves as an early and recycling endosome. In addition, as previously described, yeast contains a late or prevacuolar endosome (PVE). Endocytic cargoes localize to the TGN shortly after internalization, and manipulations that perturb export from the TGN can slow the passage of endocytic cargoes to the PVE. Yeast apparently lacks a distinct early endosome. Thus, yeast has a simple endocytic pathway that may reflect the ancestral organization of the endomembrane system. eTOC Blurb Although mammalian endocytic pathway has early, late, and recycling endosomes, the Saccharomyces cerevisiae system is unresolved. Day et al. show that yeast only has two endosome types: the trans-Golgi network, functioning as both early and recycling endosome, and the longlived prevacuolar endosome, possibly reflecting ancestral organization of the endomembrane system.

The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is amenable to studying membrane traffic by live-cell 1 fluorescence microscopy. We used this system to explore two aspects of cargo protein traffic 2 through prevacuolar endosome (PVE) compartments to the vacuole. First, at what point during 3Golgi maturation does a biosynthetic vacuolar cargo depart from the maturing cisternae? To 4 address this question, we modified a regulatable fluorescent secretory cargo by adding a vacuolar 5 targeting signal. Traffic of the vacuolar cargo requires the GGA clathrin adaptors, which arrive 6 during the early-to-late Golgi transition. Accordingly, the vacuolar cargo begins to exit the Golgi 7 near the midpoint of maturation, significantly before exit of a secretory cargo. Second, how are 8 cargoes delivered from PVE compartments to the vacuole? To address this question, we tracked 9 biosynthetic and endocytic cargoes after they had accumulated in PVE compartments. The results 10 imply that stable PVE compartments repeatedly deliver material to the vacuole by a kiss-and-run 11 mechanism. 12

The golgin PpImh1 mediates reversible cisternal stacking in the Golgi of the budding yeast Pichia pastoris

The adhesive force for cisternal stacking of Golgi needs to be reversibleto be initiated and undone in a continuous cycle to keep up with the cisternal maturation. Microscopic evidence in support of such a reversible nature of stacking, in the form of 'TGN peeling,' has been reported in various species, suggesting a potential evolutionarily conserved mechanism. However, knowledge of such mechanism has remained sketchy. Here, we have explored this issue in the budding yeast Pichia pastoris which harbors stacked Golgi. We observed that deletion of GRIP domain golgin P. pastoris (Pp)IMH1 increases the peeling of late cisterna, causing unstacking of the Golgi stack. Our results suggest that the PpImh1 dimer mediates reversible stacking through a continuous association-dissociation cycle of its GRIP domain to the middle and late Golgi cisterna under the GTP hydrolysis-based regulation of Arl3-Arl1 GTPase cascade switch. The reversible cisternal stacking function of PpImh1 is independent of its vesicle-capturing function. Since GRIP domain proteins are conserved in plants, animals and fungi, it is plausible that this reversible mechanism of Golgi stacking is evolutionarily conserved. This article has an associated First Person interview with the first author of the paper.
