The role of the Golgi complex in the intracellular transport of influenza virus haemagglutinin in infected MDCK cell monolayers has been investigated using monensin, a carboxylic ionophore known to disrupt the functioning of this organelle in other cell types. In untreated cells metabolically labelled 5 h post-infection with [35S]methionine haemagglutinin was first seen in core glycosylated form, which was sensitive to the enzyme endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H (endo H). After approximately 20 min this form was converted into a terminally glycosylated, endo H-resistant form. In the presence of monensin core glycosylation of haemagglutinin was not affected, but terminal glycosylation was interrupted. Two new forms of haemagglutinin were observed, both of which were smaller than the core glycosylated form. Of these, the larger was endo H-sensitive while the smaller was endo H-resistant. These new (and uncharacterized) forms of haemagglutinin are likely to be intermediates in the normal process of terminal glycosylation, which are revealed as a result of the inhibition by monensin of the transport of haemagglutinin through the stack of Golgi cisternae. In untreated cells 85% of the pulse-labelled haemagglutinin had reached the plasma membrane after 90 min of chase, as revealed by its sensitivity to externally applied trypsin. In monensin-treated cells, on the other hand, only 55% of the haemagglutinin had reached the plasma membrane after 90 min of chase, while 94% had arrived there after 180 min of chase. At 5 h post-infection the density of envelope proteins detected at the apical surface of the monolayer by immunofluorescence microscopy was greatly reduced by monensin treatment. Budding of virions from the apical surface of the monolayer at 4 and 7 h post-infection was also reduced, and the normal Golgi complexes were replaced by distended vacuoles that appeared to contain poorly preserved virions.

Biochemical changes in the influenza virus hemagglutinin during intracellular transport to the apical plasma membrane of epithelial cells were investigated in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells and in LLC-PK1 cells stably transfected with a hemagglutinin gene. After pulse-labeling a substantial fraction of hemagglutinin was observed to become insoluble in isotonic solutions of Triton X-100. Insolubility of hemagglutinin was detected late in the transport pathway after addition of complex sugars in the Golgi complex but before insertion of the protein in the plasma membrane. Insolubility was not dependent on oligosaccharide modification since deoxymannojirimycin (dMM), which inhibits mannose trimming, failed to prevent its onset. Insolubility was not due to assembly of virus particles at the plasma membrane because insoluble hemagglutinin was also observed in transfected cells. Hemagglutinin insolubility was also seen in MDCK cells cultured in suspension and in chick embryo fibroblasts, indicating that insolubility and plasma membrane polarity are not simply correlated. In addition to insolubility, an apparent transport-dependent reduction of the disulfide bond linking HA1 and HA2 in hemagglutinin was detected. Because of the timing of both insolubility and the loss of the disulfide bond, these modifications may be important in the delivery of the hemagglutinin to the cell surface.

AbstractThe primary cilium is a specialized plasma membrane protrusion that harbors receptors involved in important signaling pathways. Despite its central role in regulating cellular behavior, the biogenesis of the primary cilium is not fully understood. In fact, the source of the ciliary membrane remains a mystery in cell types that assemble their primary cilium entirely at the cell surface, such as polarized renal epithelial cells. After cytokinesis, the remnant of the midbody of these cells moves to the center of the apical surface, where it licenses the centrosome for ciliogenesis through an unidentified mechanism. Here, to investigate the origin of the ciliary membrane and the role of the midbody remnant, we analyzed membrane compaction and lipid dynamics at the microscale and nanoscale in living renal epithelial MDCK cells. We found that a specialized patch made of condensed membranes with restricted lipid lateral mobility surrounds the midbody remnant. This patch accompanies the remnant on its journey towards the centrosome and, once the two structures have met, the remnant delivers part of membranes of the patch to build the ciliary membrane. In this way, we have determined the origin of the ciliary membrane and the contribution of the midbody remnant to primary cilium formation in cells whose primary cilium is assembled at the plasma membrane.

Targeting Signal

Glycosylation was considered the major signal candidate for apical targeting of transmembrane proteins in polarized epithelial cells. However, direct demonstration of the role of glycosylation has proved difficult because non-glycosylated apical transmembrane proteins usually do not reach the cell surface. Here we were able to follow the targeting of the apical transmembrane glycoprotein NPP3 both when glycosylated and non-glycosylated. Transfected in polarized MDCK and Caco-2 cells, NPP3 was exclusively expressed at the apical membrane. The transport kinetics of the protein to the cell surface were studied after metabolic (35)S-labeling and surface immunoprecipitation. The newly synthesized protein was mainly targeted directly to the apical surface in MDCK cells, whereas 50% transited through the basolateral surface in Caco-2 cells. In both cell types, the basolaterally targeted pool was effectively transcytosed to the apical surface. In the presence of tunicamycin, NPP3 was not N-glycosylated. The non-glycosylated protein was partially retained intracellularly but the fraction that reached the cell surface was nevertheless predominantly targeted apically. However, transcytosis of the non-glycosylated protein was partially impaired in MDCK cells. These results provide direct evidence that glycosylation cannot be considered an apical targeting signal for NPP3, although glycosylation is necessary for correct trafficking of the protein to the cell surface.

The MAL (MAL/VIP17) proteolipid is a nonglycosylated integral membrane protein expressed in a restricted pattern of cell types, including T lymphocytes, myelin-forming cells, and polarized epithelial cells. Transport of the influenza virus hemagglutinin (HA) to the apical surface of epithelial Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells appears to be mediated by a pathway involving glycolipid- and cholesterol- enriched membranes (GEMs). In MDCK cells, MAL has been proposed previously as being an element of the protein machinery for the GEM-dependent apical transport pathway. Using an antisense oligonucleotide-based strategy and a newly generated monoclonal antibody to canine MAL, herein we have approached the effect of MAL depletion on HA transport in MDCK cells. We have found that MAL depletion diminishes the presence of HA in GEMs, reduces the rate of HA transport to the cell surface, inhibits the delivery of HA to the apical surface, and produces partial missorting of HA to the basolateral membrane. These effects were corrected by ectopic expression of MAL in MDCK cells whose endogenous MAL protein was depleted. Our results indicate that MAL is necessary for both normal apical transport and accurate sorting of HA.

To study the intracellular transport of newly synthesized sphingolipids in epithelial cells we have used a fluorescent ceramide analog, N-6[7-nitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazol-4-yl] aminocaproyl sphingosine (C6-NBD-ceramide; Lipsky, N. G., and R. E. Pagano, 1983, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 80:2608-2612) as a probe. This ceramide was readily taken up by filter-grown Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells from liposomes at 0 degrees C. After penetration into the cell, the fluorescent probe accumulated in the Golgi area at temperatures between 0 and 20 degrees C. Chemical analysis showed that C6-NBD-ceramide was being converted into C6-NBD-sphingomyelin and C6-NBD-glucosyl-ceramide. An analysis of the fluorescence pattern after 1 h at 20 degrees C by means of a confocal scanning laser fluorescence microscope revealed that the fluorescent marker most likely concentrated in the Golgi complex itself. Little fluorescence was observed at the plasma membrane. Raising the temperature to 37 degrees C for 1 h resulted in intense plasma membrane staining and a loss of fluorescence from the Golgi complex. Addition of BSA to the apical medium cleared the fluorescence from the apical but not from the basolateral plasma membrane domain. The basolateral fluorescence could be depleted only by adding BSA to the basal side of a monolayer of MDCK cells grown on polycarbonate filters. We conclude that the fluorescent sphingomyelin and glucosylceramide were delivered from the Golgi complex to the plasma membrane where they accumulated in the external leaflet of the membrane bilayer. The results also demonstrated that the fatty acyl labeled lipids were unable to pass the tight junctions in either direction. Quantitation of the amount of NBD-lipids delivered to the apical and the basolateral plasma membranes during incubation for 1 h at 37 degrees C showed that the C6-NBD-glucosylceramide was two- to fourfold enriched on the apical as compared to the basolateral side, while C6-NBD-sphingomyelin was about equally distributed. Since the surface area of the apical plasma membrane is much smaller than that of the basolateral membrane, both lipids achieved a higher concentration on the apical surface. Altogether, our results suggest that the NBD-lipids are sorted in MDCK cells in a way similar to their natural counterparts.

The polarity of epithelial cells is dependent on their ability to target proteins and lipids in a directional fashion. The trans-Golgi network, the endosomal compartment, and the plasma membrane act as sorting stations for proteins and lipids. The site of intracellular sorting and pathways used for the apical delivery of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins (GPI-APs) are largely unclear. Using biochemical assays and confocal and video microscopy in living cells, we show that newly synthesized GPI-APs are directly delivered to the apical surface of fully polarized Madin–Darby canine kidney cells. Impairment of basolateral membrane fusion by treatment with tannic acid does not affect the direct apical delivery of GPI-APs, but it does affect the organization of tight junctions and the integrity of the monolayer. Our data clearly demonstrate that GPI-APs are directly sorted to the apical surface without passing through the basolateral membrane. They also reinforce the hypothesis that apical sorting of GPI-APs occurs intracellularly before arrival at the plasma membrane.
