PrPC (cellular prion protein) is located at the surface of neuronal cells in detergent-insoluble lipid rafts, yet is internalized by clathrin-dependent endocytosis. As PrPC is glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol-anchored, it requires a transmembrane adaptor protein to connect it to the clathrin endocytosis machinery. Using receptor-associated protein and small interfering RNA against particular LDL (low-density lipoprotein) family members, in combination with immunofluorescence microscopy and surface biotinylation assays, we show that the transmembrane LRP1 (LDL receptor-related protein 1) is required for the Cu2+-mediated endocytosis of PrPC in neuronal cells. We show also that another LRP1 ligand that can cause neurodegenerative disease, the Alzheimer's amyloid precursor protein, does not modulate the endocytosis of PrPC.
