| abstractText | The mechanism that maintains ER-to-Golgi vesicles formation and transport is complicated. As one of the adapters, Ninein-like protein (Nlp) participated in assembly and transporting of partial ER-to-Golgi vesicles that contained specific proteins, such as beta-Catenin and STING. Nlp acted as a platform to sustain the specificity and continuity of cargoes during COPII and COPI-coated vesicle transition and transportation through binding directly with SEC31A as well as Rab1B. Thus, we proposed an integrated transport model that particular adapter participated in specific cargo selection or transportation through cooperating with different membrane associated proteins to ensure the continuity of cargo trafficking. Deficiency of Nlp led to vesicle budding failure and accumulation of unprocessed proteins in ER, which further caused ER stress as well as Golgi fragmentation, and PERK-eIF2alpha pathway of UPR was activated to reduce the synthesis of universal proteins. In contrast, upregulation of Nlp resulted in Golgi fragmentation, which enhanced the cargo transport efficiency between ER and Golgi. Moreover, Nlp deficient mice were prone to spontaneous B cell lymphoma, since the developments and functions of lymphocytes significantly depended on secretory proteins through ER-to-Golgi vesicle trafficking, including IL-13, IL-17 and IL-21. Thus, perturbations of Nlp altered ER-to-Golgi communication and cellular homeostasis, and might contribute to the pathogenesis of B cell lymphoma. |
