| Popis: | Synthetic peptides of the putative effector domain of members of the ras-related rab gene family of small GTP-binding proteins were synthesized and found to be potent inhibitors of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to Golgi and intra-Golgi transport in vitro. Inhibition of transport by one of the effector domain peptides was rapid (t1/2 of 30 s), and irreversible. Analysis of the temporal site of peptide inhibition indicated that a late step in transport was blocked, coincident with a Ca2(+)-dependent prefusion step. The results provide novel biochemical evidence for the role of members of the rab gene family in vesicular transport in mammalian cells, and implicate a role for a new downstream Rab effector protein (REP) regulating vesicle fusion. |
