CLCd and CLCf act redundantly at the TGN/EE and prevent acidification of the Golgi stack

Abstract The trans-Golgi network/early endosome (TGN/EE) serves as the central hub in which exo- and endocytic trafficking pathways converge and specificity of cargo routing needs to be achieved. Acidification is a hallmark of the TGN/EE and is maintained by the vacuolar H+-ATPase (V-ATPase) with support of proton-coupled antiporters. We show here that CLCd and CLCf, two distantly related members of the Arabidopsis chloride channel (CLC)-family that colocalize in the TGN/EE act redundantly and are essential for male gametophyte development. Combining an inducible knock-down approach and in vivo pH-measurements, we show here that reduced CLC-activity does not affect pH in the TGN/EE but causes accumulation of the V-ATPase in trans-Golgi cisternae leading to their hyper-acidification. Taken together, our results show that CLC-mediated anion transport into the TGN/EE is essential and affects spatio-temporal aspects of TGN/EE-maturation as well as its functional separation from the Golgi stack..
