Over the past two decades, attention has been focused on communication mechanisms based on various membrane structures, as illustrated by the burst of scientific literature in the field of extracellular vesicles (EVs). These lipid bilayer-bound nano- or microparticles, as vehicle-like devices, act as regulators in various biological and physiological processes. When EVs are internalized by recipient cells, their membrane and cytoplasmic cargoes can interfere with cellular activities, affecting pathways that regulate cell proliferation, differentiation, and migration. In cancer, EVs can transfer oncogenic factors, stimulate neo-angiogenesis and immunosuppression, reprogram stromal cells, and confer drug resistance traits, thereby remodeling the surrounding microenvironment. Although the mechanisms underlying EV biogenesis and uptake are now better understood, little is known about the spatiotemporal mechanism(s) of their actions after internalization. In this respect, we have shown that a fraction of endocytosed EVs reaches the nuclear compartment via the VOR (VAP-A-ORP3-Rab7) complex-mediated docking of late endosomes to the outer nuclear membrane in the nucleoplasmic reticulum, positioning and facilitating the transfer of EV cargoes into the nucleoplasm via nuclear pores. Here, we highlight the EV heterogeneity, the cellular pathways governing EV release and uptake by donor and recipient cells, respectively, and focus on a novel intracellular pathway leading to the nuclear transfer of EV cargoes. We will discuss how to intercept it, which could open up new avenues for clinical applications in which EVs and other small extracellular particles (e.g., retroviruses) are implicated.</p>","PeriodicalId":8841,"journal":{"name":"Biochemical Society transactions","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143970426","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Targeted protein degradation systems rely on target ubiquitination by E3 ubiquitin ligases. Systems that are available or being developed in plants can be distinguished primarily by the type of E3 ubiquitin ligase involved, including those that utilize Cullin-RING ligases, bacterial novel E3 ligases, and N-end rule pathway E3 ligases, or they can be controlled by proteolysis targeting chimeras.

By inducing DNA double-strand breaks, Spo11, a protein that is conserved in all meiotic organisms, initiates the process of recombination. Here, we chart the evolutionary history of Spo11 and compare the protein to its ancestors. Evolving from the A subunit of archaeal topoisomerase VI (Topo VI), a heterotetrameric type II topoisomerase, Spo11 appears to have evolved alongside meiosis and been present in the last eukaryotic common ancestor. There are many differences between Spo11 and TopVIA, particularly in regulation, despite similarities in structure and mechanism of action. Critical to its function as an inducer of recombination, Spo11 has an apparently amputated activity that, unlike topoisomerases, does not re-seal the DNA breaks it creates. We discuss how and why Spo11 has taken its path down the tree of life, considering its regulation and its roles compared with those of its progenitor Topo VI, in both meiotic and non-meiotic species. We find some commonality between different forms and orthologs of Spo11 in different species and touch upon how recent biochemical advances are beginning to finally unlock the molecular secrets hidden within this fundamental yet enigmatic protein.</p>","PeriodicalId":8841,"journal":{"name":"Biochemical Society transactions","volume":"53 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143778850","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recent studies have elucidated the structure of several tetraspanin members, revealing that while the four transmembrane domains typically adopt a cone-shaped configuration in crystals, other conformations are also possible. This cone-shaped structure may explain why tetraspanins are often enriched in curved and tubular cellular structures, such as microvilli, tunneling nanotubes, retraction fibers, or at the site of virus budding, and may contribute to the formation or maintenance of these structures. Tetraspanins have also been detected on midbody remnants and migrasomes, as well as on extracellular vesicles (EVs), for which CD9, CD81, and CD63 are widely used as markers. Although their impact on certain membrane structures and their ability to regulate the function and trafficking of associated proteins would suggest a potential role of tetraspanins either in EV formation or in regulating their protein composition, or both, efforts to characterize these roles have been complicated by conflicting results. In line with the interaction of certain tetraspanins with cholesterol, two recent studies have suggested that the presence or organization of oxysterols and cholesterol in EVs may be regulated by Tspan6 and CD63, respectively, paving the way for further research on the influence of tetraspanins on the lipid composition of EVs.</p>","PeriodicalId":8841,"journal":{"name":"Biochemical Society transactions","volume":"0 0","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143708349","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Because epithelial cells are not phagocytic, the uptake of Chlamydia must be driven by the pathogen. To this end, two bacterial proteins, translocated actin-recruiting protein (TarP) and translocated membrane effector A (TmeA), identified in Chlamydia trachomatis are translocated from the infectious chlamydial elementary bodies to the host cell cytosol to facilitate extensive remodeling of the cortical actin network to produce protrusive structures designed for pathogen engulfment. Notably, both effectors act by promoting highly localized actin nucleation at sites of bacterial adhesion. However, they have non-redundant functions, with both required for optimal actin remodeling dynamics and efficient invasion. Finally, these effectors also mediate the latter stages of the invasion process, specifically by modulating host dynamin 2, a large GTPase critical to closure and scission of invaginating vesicles harboring elementary bodies.
