Supplementary information

Beta COP also known as coatomer subunit beta and sometimes referred to as beta COPI is an important component of the coatomer protein complex involved in vesicle formation and trafficking. This protein has a molecular mass of approximately 110 kDa. Beta COP is expressed widely across various tissues and is essential in maintaining cellular transport systems. It resides mainly within the cytosolic coat of COPI vesicles that originate from Golgi membranes helping in directing the flow of enzymes that are vital for cellular metabolism.
Biological function summary

Coatomer subunits like beta COP play an integral role in forming the COPI complex which functions as a coat on Golgi-derived transport vesicles. Beta COP acts to mediate retrograde transport from the Golgi apparatus back to the endoplasmic reticulum. By helping in vesicle budding and fusion processes it ensures correct protein sorting and localization. This mechanism is critical for cellular homeostasis and proper cellular functions.

Pathways

The COPI-mediated transport involving beta COP plays a significant role in the Golgi-to-ER retrograde transport pathway. This pathway is vital for maintaining the balance of lipids and proteins within cells. Key proteins interacting with this pathway include other coatomer subunits such as delta and gamma COP. Through these interactions beta COP is indispensable in regulating vesicle trafficking and membrane dynamics affecting overall cellular communication.

Beta COP's malfunction can lead to disruptions in vesicle transport potentially contributing to disorders like genetic syndromes or neurodegenerative diseases. Research suggests a connection between aberrant COPI transport and pathology such as Parkinson's disease where beta COP might interact with protein alpha-synuclein. Additionally alterations in beta COP's function link to Alzheimer’s disease where its dysfunction could impact amyloid precursor protein processing. Understanding these connections offers pathways to exploring therapeutic interventions.

Target data

The coatomer is a cytosolic protein complex that binds to dilysine motifs and reversibly associates with Golgi non-clathrin-coated vesicles, which further mediate biosynthetic protein transport from the ER, via the Golgi up to the trans Golgi network. Coatomer complex is required for budding from Golgi membranes, and is essential for the retrograde Golgi-to-ER transport of dilysine-tagged proteins. In mammals, the coatomer can only be recruited by membranes associated to ADP-ribosylation factors (ARFs), which are small GTP-binding proteins; the complex also influences the Golgi structural integrity, as well as the processing, activity, and endocytic recycling of LDL receptors. Plays a functional role in facilitating the transport of kappa-type opioid receptor mRNAs into axons and enhances translation of these proteins. Required for limiting lipid storage in lipid droplets. Involved in lipid homeostasis by regulating the presence of perilipin family members PLIN2 and PLIN3 at the lipid droplet surface and promoting the association of adipocyte surface triglyceride lipase (PNPLA2) with the lipid droplet to mediate lipolysis (By similarity). Involved in the Golgi disassembly and reassembly processes during cell cycle. Involved in autophagy by playing a role in early endosome function. Plays a role in organellar compartmentalization of secretory compartments including endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-Golgi intermediate compartment (ERGIC), Golgi, trans-Golgi network (TGN) and recycling endosomes, and in biosynthetic transport of CAV1. Promotes degradation of Nef cellular targets CD4 and MHC class I antigens by facilitating their trafficking to degradative compartments.
