Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-Golgi interface is essential for directing the transport of proteins synthesized in the ER to the Golgi apparatus via the ER-Golgi intermediate compartment, as well as for recycling proteins back to the ER. This transport is facilitated by various components, including COPI and COPII coat protein complexes and the transport protein particle complex. Recently, the ER-Golgi transport pathway has gained attention due to emerging evidence of nonvesicular transport mechanisms and the regulation of trafficking through liquid-liquid phase separation. Numerous diseases have been linked to mutations in proteins localized at the ER-Golgi interface, highlighting the need for comprehensive analysis of these conditions. This review examines the disease phenotypes associated with dysfunctional ER-Golgi transport factors and explores their cellular effects, providing insights into potential therapeutic strategies.
期刊介绍:
Traffic encourages and facilitates the publication of papers in any field relating to intracellular transport in health and disease. Traffic papers span disciplines such as developmental biology, neuroscience, innate and adaptive immunity, epithelial cell biology, intracellular pathogens and host-pathogen interactions, among others using any eukaryotic model system. Areas of particular interest include protein, nucleic acid and lipid traffic, molecular motors, intracellular pathogens, intracellular proteolysis, nuclear import and export, cytokinesis and the cell cycle, the interface between signaling and trafficking or localization, protein translocation, the cell biology of adaptive an innate immunity, organelle biogenesis, metabolism, cell polarity and organization, and organelle movement.
All aspects of the structural, molecular biology, biochemistry, genetics, morphology, intracellular signaling and relationship to hereditary or infectious diseases will be covered. Manuscripts must provide a clear conceptual or mechanistic advance. The editors will reject papers that require major changes, including addition of significant experimental data or other significant revision.
Traffic will consider manuscripts of any length, but encourages authors to limit their papers to 16 typeset pages or less.
