Abstract

Assembly of the coat protein I (COPI) vesicle coat is controlled by the small GTPase ADP ribosylation factor 1 (ARF1) and its GTPase-activating protein, ARFGAP1. Here, we investigate the diffusional behaviours of coatomer, the main component of the coat, and also those of ARF1 and ARFGAP1. Using fluorescence-correlation spectroscopy, we found that most ARF1 and ARFGAP1 molecules are highly mobile in the cytosol (diffusion constant D approximately equal to 15 microm(2) s(-1)), whereas coatomer diffuses 5-10 times more slowly than expected (D approximately equal to 1 microm(2) s(-1)). This slow diffusion causes diffusion-limited binding kinetics to Golgi membranes, which, in FRAP (fluorescence recovery after photobleaching) experiments, translates into a twofold slower binding rate. The addition of aluminium fluoride locks coatomer onto Golgi membranes and also decreases the binding kinetics of both ARF1 and ARFGAP1, suggesting that these proteins function in concert to mediate sorting and vesicle formation.
