Abstract

Maturation from early to late endosomes depends on the exchange of their marker proteins Rab5 to Rab7. This requires Rab7 activation by its specific guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) Mon1-Ccz1. Efficient GEF activity of this complex on membranes depends on Rab5, thus driving Rab-exchange on endosomes. However, molecular details on the role of Rab5 in Mon1-Ccz1 activation are unclear. Here we identify key features in Mon1 involved in GEF regulation. We show that the intrinsically disordered N-terminal domain of Mon1 autoinhibits Rab5-dependent GEF-activity on membranes. Consequently, Mon1 truncations result in higher GEF activity in vitro , and a shift from Rab5 to more Rab7 positive structures in Drosophila nephrocytes and yeast, suggesting faster endosomal maturation. Using modeling, we further identify a conserved Rab5 binding site in Mon1. Mutations impairing Rab5 interaction result in poor GEF activity on membranes and growth defects in vivo . Our analysis provides a framework to understand the mechanism of Rab-conversion and organelle maturation along the endomembrane system. Summary: Transport of proteins via the endolysosomal pathway requires Rab5 on early endosomes, which is replaced by Rab7 on late endosomes. Here, we identify distinct regulatory sites in the Rab7 activator, the Mon1-Ccz1 complex, shedding light on the regulation of Rab5 to Rab7 transition.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
