Evidence for two endocytic transport pathways in plant cells
چکیده انگلیسی

SummaryIntracellular trafficking of endocytic vesicles in eukaryotes varies with the nature of the cargo molecules and the targeted organelle, and proceeds through an intricate network of internal endosomal compartments. However, the path for fluid-phase endocytosis (FPE), the internalization of external solutes from the apoplast via plasmalemma generated vesicles, remains unresolved despite some indication of a direct transport route to the vacuole. To test this hypothesis, we made use of the membrane-impermeable Na-dependent fluorescent marker Coro-Na in combination with the fluorescent membrane marker FM 4-64 and confocal laser scanning microscopy. When protoplasts from sweet lime juice cells were incubated in Na-free solution, FM 4-64, Coro-Na, and 200 mM sucrose, two distinct types of labeled vesicles were evident. A set of vesicles (∼1 μm in diameter) was intensely labeled with Coro-Na and to a lesser extent with FM 4-64, whereas the second type of 1–7 μm structures appeared exclusively labeled with FM 4-64. These data demonstrate the parallel functioning of two endocytic pathways in plant cells. In one system, a set of small endocytic vesicles merge with the endosome, whereas a separate set of vesicles fuse to form larger vesicles independent from the endosome. Although it is likely that both vesicle systems eventually contribute to solutes reaching the vacuole, given their size (1–7 μm), and based on previous observations of endocytic vesicle formation protruding from the plasmalemma and merging with the vacuole, we conclude that these latter vesicles constitute the primary FPE vesicle system.
