Abstract | Intracellular vesicle trafficking is essential for proper cellular function and mammalian development.
Transport Protein Particle (TRAPP) complex regulates multiple vesicles transport pathways. Three
TRAPP complexes have been identified in yeast with roles in ER-Golgi, post-Golgi transport and in
autophagy. Sedlin (SEDL) is one of the subunit of the TRAPP complex and mutations in human SEDL
gene are responsible for an X-linked recessive skeletal disorder called Spondyloepiphyseal Dysplasia
Tarda (SEDT). The SEDL gene is ubiquitously expressed, however the underlying defect is only
restricted to derangement of chondrogenesis reflecting the existence of another SEDL-related gene.
We use gene-targeting and gene-trap mutagenesis strategies to investigate the functions of Sedl and
Sedlp in mice. Our results show that Sedl (Sedlin) and Sedlp have redundant function and are
essentially required for mouse development. We showed here that there is a dose-dependent
requirement of Sedl and Sedlp in early embryonic development. Embryos with a reduced dosage of
Sedl and Sedlp display a significantly reduced size with severe abnormalities and a disorganized
yolk-sac endoderm structure. Electron microscopy study indicates morphological alterations of the
intracellular compartments in compound mutant endoderm suggesting both Sedlin and Sedlp may be
required for proper cellular trafficking. These results provide important insights into the functional
roles of Sedlin components in mouse embryonic development. |
