Microtubules, Motors and
Membranes
Transport on Microtubules
• In neurons there is visible transport of vesicles
from cell body to growth cone
– Transcription and translation and membrane
biosynthesis in cell body
– Need to get material to growth cone to elongate
• Axonal transport

Can watch vesicles move on mt’s
Now use brain mt’s and squid axoplasm
vesicles move with ATP added (2µm/sec)
vesicles bind but don’t move with AMPPNP
now isolate proteins that bind to mt’s in the presence of AMPPNP
but elute with ATP!
• Kinesin is discovered
Kinesins
• Moves toward the (+) end (1-2 µm/sec)
• 2 x 124kd + 64kd complex
• Double headed ATP motor with a tail that
binds cargo
• 4 families involved in vesicle movement
• 3 families involved in spindle function
• Some are actually (-) end directed

1- Put motor on slide and add microtubules- the motor pushes the
microtubule along
2- add vesicles to microtubules on slide and the vesicles are moved on
the microtubules

Mitochondria and Microtubules
• Mitochondria also coalign with Mt’s in cell
• They are elongated into tubules along the
length of mT’s
• Recently, a kinesin homolog (Kif1B) has
been found to be specific for mitochondria

Lysosomes and Microtubules
• Label endosomal system see extensive
network of vesicles and tubules clustered
around MTOC
• Nocodazole causes dispersal
• Movements of individual vesicles ceases
when mt’s depolymerized
• repolymerize mt’s and they recluster at
MTOC
Melanophores
• Vesicles move bidirectionally on Mt’s to change
the color of cells in fish scales
– Melatonin stimulating hormone causes vesicles to
disperse
• cAMP increases
– Melatonin causes them to aggregate near the nucleus
• cAMP decreases
• Dynein does inward movement
• Kinesin + Myosin V does outward

Dynactin complex
(Deacon et al. The Journal of Cell Biology,
Volume 160, Number 3, February 3, 2003 297–301)
• Complex that binds dynein to cargo
• Inhibition of function by overexpressing
dynamitin ( a component of dynactin complex)
inhibits both aggregation and dispersal
• Found dynamitin binds to Kinesin as well as
dynein
• Thus the dynactin complex may regulate both with
some kind of bidirectional on/off switch
Vesicle trafficking: Golgi-TGNsorting in epithelial cells
• Problem: All secretory, lysosomal,
membrane proteins sort from ER to Golgi
and then are distributed in the TGN to
different sites
• How is the sorting accomplished?
• In Epithelial cells you sort cargo to the
apical and basolateral membranes. How?
Use fluorescent labeled markers that sort to apical (CFP) or
basolateral (YFP) part of the cell. Keller et al. Nature Cell
Biology, 3:140-147 2001

Over time, they sort into red and green vesicles
Can see tubules pull out of a single sorting
compartment that are either red or green

Membrane Tension
• Membranes seem to be under tension-note the
pulling out of membranes along microtubule’s in
vitro looks like ER
• Sorting seems to involve stretching of the sorting
compartment membranes into tubules
• There is now evidence that in the TGN, you don’t
bud off small vesicles, but large interconnected
networks of tubules and vesicles
• Brefeldin A Blinkout
– Brefeldin A blocks the transport from ER to Golgi
– Does not block recycling from Golgi to ER
– Add bfa and watch the Golgi disperse- it is not gradual,
it is explosive!!

Future?
• Challenge is to figure out the specific
function of each motor
– Where is it?
– What is it’s cargo?
– What turns the motor off and on?
• Organization of Golgi, ER, lysosomes by
motors and how function is interrelated
