The rat insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II) receptor develops transmembrane signaling functions by directly coupling to a guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G protein) having a 40-kDa alpha subunit, Gi-2, whereas recent studies have indicated that the IGF-II receptor is a molecule identical to the cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor (CI-MPR), a receptor implicated in lysosomal enzyme sorting. In this study, by using vesicles reconstituted with the clonal human CI-MPR and G proteins, we indicated that the CI-MPR could stimulate guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTP gamma S) binding and GTPase activities of Gi proteins in response to IGF-II. The stimulatory effect of IGF-II on Gi-2 depended on the reconstituted amount of the CI-MPR; it could not be found in vesicles reconstituted with Gi-2 alone; and it was also observed on Gi-1 reconstituted with the CI-MPR in phospholipid vesicles. Of interest, such stimulatory effect was not reproduced by Man-6-P in CI-MPR vesicles reconstituted with either G protein. Furthermore, the affinity for Man-6-P-mediated beta-glucuronidase binding to several kinds of native cell membranes was not reduced by 100 microM GTP gamma S. Instead, however, Man-6-P dose-dependently inhibited IGF-II-induced Gi-2 activation with an IC50 of 6 microM in vesicles reconstituted with the CI-MPR and Gi-2. The action of 100 nM IGF-II was completely abolished by 1 mM Man-6-P. Such an inhibitory effect of Man-6-P was reproduced by 4000 times lower concentrations of beta-glucuronidase or similar concentrations of fructose 1-phosphate, but not by mannose or glucose 6-phosphate. These results indicate that the human CI-MPR has two distinct signaling functions that positively or negatively regulate the activity of Gi-2 in response to the binding of IGF-II or Man-6-P.

We recently reported the cDNA cloning, sequence, and expression of the human cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor (hCI-MPR) (Oshima, A., Nolan, C. M., Kyle, J. W., Grubb, J. H., and Sly, W. S. (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 2553-2562). The sequence of the hCI-MPR was virtually identical to that of the human insulin-like growth factor II receptor cDNA (Morgan, D. O., Edman, J. C., Standring, D. N., Fried, V. A., Smith, M. C., Roth, R. A., and Rutter, W. J. (1987) Nature 329, 301-307). To test the role of the putative bifunctional receptor in intracellular sorting of acid hydrolases, we studied its effect on lysosomal enzyme transport following gene transfer to receptor-negative cells. Receptor-negative mouse P388D1 cells were transfected with a cDNA construct containing the entire coding sequence of hCI-MPR under the control of the mouse metallothionine I promoter. Stable transformants were isolated and characterized. The expressed hCI-MPR was localized in membranes including the plasma membrane, bound mannose 6-phosphate containing ligands, and mediated endocytosis which could be specifically blocked by mannose 6-phosphate. We next measured the effect of the expressed hCI-MPR on intracellular and secreted acid hydrolases. The intracellular activity of the lysosomal marker enzymes beta-glucuronidase and beta-hexosaminidase increased up to 2-fold following transformation. In addition, expression of the receptor greatly reduced the fraction of acid hydrolases secreted. These phenotypic changes in the transformed cell lines support the proposed role of the cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor in intracellular sorting and targeting of lysosomal enzymes.

We cloned and sequenced the 8767-bp full-length cDNA for the chicken cation-independent mannose-6-phosphate receptor (CI-MPR), of interest because, unlike its mammalian homologs, it does not bind insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II). The cDNA encodes a protein of 2470 aa that includes a putative signal sequence, an extracytoplasmic domain consisting of 15 homologous repeat sequences, a 23-residue transmembrane sequence, and a 161-residue cytoplasmic sequence. Overall, it shows 60% sequence identity with human and bovine CI-MPR homologs, and all but two of 122 cysteine residues are conserved. However, it shows much less homology in the N-terminal signal sequence, in repeat 11, which is proposed to contain the IGF-II-binding site in mammalian CI-MPR homologs, and in the 14-aa residue segment in the cytoplasmic sequence that has been proposed to mediate G-protein-coupled signal transduction in response to IGF-II binding by the human CI-MPR. Transient expression in COS-7 cells produced a functional CI-MPR which exhibited mannose-6-phosphate-inhibitable binding and mediated endocytosis of recombinant human beta-glucuronidase. Expression of the functional chicken CI-MPR in mice lacking the mammalian CI-MPR should clarify the controversy over the physiological role of the IGF-II-binding site in mammalian CI-MPR homologs.

We have analyzed the surface distribution and functional expression of the insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) receptor and the IGF-II/cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate (IGF-II/CI-MPR) in the polarized human colon adenocarcinoma cell line, Caco 2. Domain-selective biotinylation of the apical and basolateral surfaces of Caco-2 cells grown on filter supports revealed a 3-4-fold enrichment of these receptors on basolateral membranes. In addition, the biotinylation studies revealed the presence of the cation-dependent MPR on both membrane surfaces, with a 3.4-fold enrichment on basolateral membranes. Binding of 125I-IGF-I at 4 degrees C confirmed similar higher levels of expression of the IGF-I receptor at the basolateral surface than at the apical surface. Cell surface-specific binding of the iodinated lysosomal enzyme beta-glucuronidase was detected at 4 degrees C on both plasma membrane domains. However, significant uptake of beta-glucuronidase at 37 degrees C was observed only from the basolateral surface. These results indicate that the MPRs and the IGF-I receptor are expressed in a polarized fashion in Caco-2 cells and that the IGF-II/CI-MPR present on apical membranes, unlike the IGF-II/CI-MPR expressed on the basolateral surface, is not functional in endocytosing lysosomal enzymes.

The two mannose 6-phosphate (Man-6-P) binding sites of the insulin-like growth factor-II/mannose 6-phosphate receptor (IGF-II/MPR) have been localized to domains 1-3 and 7-9, and studies have shown that Arg435 in domain 3 and Arg 1334 in domain 9 are essential for Man-6-P binding. To determine whether the IGF-II/MPR containing a single Man-6-P binding site is functional, clonal mouse L cell lines stably transfected with either mutant bovine IGF-II/MPR cDNA, containing substitutions at position 435 and/or 1334, or the wild type receptor cDNA were assayed for their ability to sort lysosomal enzymes to the lysosome. Mutant receptors containing a single Man-6-P binding site were approximately 50% less efficient than the wild type receptor in the overall targeting of lysosomal enzymes to the lysosome. Mutant receptors containing a substitution at Arg1334 (Dom9(Ala)), in contrast to those containing a substitution at Arg435 (Dom3(Ala)), were unable to target cathepsin D and beta-hexosaminidase to the lysosome. Equilibrium binding assays using 125I-labeled beta-glucuronidase demonstrated that Dom3(Ala) and Dom9(Ala) had a Kd of 2.0 and 4.3 nM, respectively. In addition, Dom3(Ala), unlike Dom9(Ala), was unable to completely dissociate from ligand under acidic pH conditions. These data indicate that the two Man-6-P binding sites of the IGF-II/MPR are not functionally equivalent.

A soluble truncated form of the cation-dependent mannose 6-phosphate receptor (CD-MPR) encoding only the extracytoplasmic region, Stop155, and a truncated glycosylation-deficient form of the CD-MPR, Asn81/Stop155, which has been modified to contain only one N-linked glycosylation site at position 81 instead of five, were purified from baculovirus-infected High Five insect cells. The glycosylated recombinant proteins were functional in ligand binding and acid-dependent dissociation as assessed by pentamannosyl phosphate-agarose affinity chromatography. Gel filtration, sucrose gradients, and cross-linking experiments revealed that both Stop155 and Asn81/Stop155 are dimeric, demonstrating that the transmembrane and cytoplasmic region of the receptor as well as N-linked oligosaccharides at positions 31, 57, and 87 are not required for dimerization. The Kd of Stop155 and Asn81/Stop155 for the lysosomal enzyme, beta-glucuronidase, was 0.2 and 0.3 nM, respectively. These values are very similar to those reported for the full-length CD-MPR, demonstrating that the extracellular region of the CD-MPR is sufficient for high-affinity binding and that oligosaccharides at positions 31, 57, and 87 do not influence ligand binding.

The insulin-like growth factor-II/mannose 6-phosphate receptor (IGF-II/MPR) is a type I glycoprotein that mediates both the intracellular sorting of lysosomal enzymes bearing mannose 6-phosphate (Man-6-P) residues to the lysosome and the bioavailability of IGF-II. The extracytoplasmic region of the IGF-II/MPR contains 15 repeating domains; the two carbohydrate recognition domains (CRDs) have been localized to domains 1-3 and 7-9, and the high-affinity IGF-II binding site maps to domain 11. To characterize the carbohydrate binding properties of the IGF-II/MPR, regions of the receptor encompassing the individual CRDs were produced in a baculovirus expression system. Characterization of the recombinant proteins revealed that the pH optimum for carbohydrate binding is significantly more acidic for the carboxyl-terminal CRD than for the amino-terminal CRD (i.e., pH 6.4-6.5 vs 6.9). Equilibrium binding studies demonstrated that the two CRDs exhibit a similar affinity for Man-6-P. Furthermore, substitution of the conserved arginine residue in domain 3 (R435) or in domain 9 (R1334) with alanine resulted in a similar >1000-fold decrease in the affinity for the lysosomal enzyme, beta-glucuronidase. In contrast, the two CRDs differ dramatically in their ability to recognize the distinctive modifications (i.e., mannose 6-sulfate and Man-6-P methyl ester) found on Dictyostelium discoideum lysosomal enzymes: the amino-terminal CRD binds mannose 6-sulfate and Man-6-P methyl ester with a 14-55-fold higher affinity than the carboxyl-terminal CRD. Taken together, these results demonstrate that the IGF-II/MPR contains two functionally distinct CRDs.

Two distinct mannose 6-phosphate (Man-6-P) receptors (MPRs), the cation-dependent MPR (CD-MPR) and the insulin-like growth factor II/MPR (IGF-II/MPR), recognize a diverse population of Man-6-P-containing ligands. The IGF-II/MPR is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein with a large extracytoplasmic region composed of 15 repeating domains that display sequence identity to each other and to the single extracytoplasmic domain of the CD-MPR. A structure-based sequence alignment of the two distinct Man-6-P-binding sites of the IGF-II/MPR with the CD-MPR implicates several residues of IGF-II/MPR domains 3 and 9 as essential for Man-6-P binding. To test this hypothesis single amino acid substitutions were made in constructs encoding either the N- or the C-terminal Man-6-P-binding sites of the bovine IGF-II/MPR. The mutant IGF-II/MPRs secreted from COS-1 cells were analyzed by pentamannosyl phosphate-agarose affinity chromatography, identifying four residues (Gln-392, Ser-431, Glu-460, and Tyr-465) in domain 3 and four residues (Gln-1292, His-1329, Glu-1354, and Tyr-1360) in domain 9 as essential for Man-6-P recognition. Binding affinity studies using the lysosomal enzyme, beta-glucuronidase, confirmed these results. Together these analyses provide strong evidence that the two Man-6-P-binding sites of the IGF-II/MPR are structurally similar to each other and to the CD-MPR and utilize a similar carbohydrate recognition mechanism.

A glycosylation-deficient, full-length cation-dependent mannose 6-phosphate receptor (CD-MPR) containing a yeast signal sequence was expressed in Pichia pastoris using the constitutive promoter of the PGAP gene. The membrane-bound receptor was solubilized using detergents and purified by pentamannosyl phosphate-agarose affinity chromatography. Equilibrium binding studies identified a binding affinity of 2 nM for the lysosomal enzyme, beta-glucuronidase. To probe the linkage specificity of the recombinant CD-MPR, inhibition binding studies were conducted using non-phosphorylated oligomannoses which demonstrated that Manalpha1,2Man exhibits a 4-fold higher inhibition than Manalpha1,3Man and Manalpha1,6Man. The receptor was capable of associating into oligomeric forms and enzymatic deglycosylation revealed the presence of high-mannose sugars at the single potential N-glycosylation site. Mass spectrometric analysis revealed that the receptor was palmitoylated at the two potential cysteines in its cytoplasmic domain. In conclusion, the full-length CD-MPR produced in P. pastoris is structurally and functionally suitable for crystallization studies.

The 300-kDa cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor (CI-MPR) and the 46-kDa cation-dependent MPR (CD-MPR) are type I integral membrane glycoproteins that play a critical role in the intracellular delivery of newly synthesized mannose 6-phosphate (Man-6-P)-containing acid hydrolases to the lysosome. The extracytoplasmic region of the CI-MPR contains 15 contiguous domains, and the two high affinity ( approximately 1 nm) Man-6-P-binding sites have been mapped to domains 1-3 and 9, with essential residues localized to domains 3 and 9. Domain 5 of the CI-MPR exhibits significant sequence homology to domains 3 and 9 as well as to the CD-MPR. A structure-based sequence alignment was performed that predicts that domain 5 contains the four conserved key residues (Gln, Arg, Glu, and Tyr) identified as essential for carbohydrate recognition by the CD-MPR and domains 3 and 9 of the CI-MPR, but lacks two cysteine residues predicted to form a disulfide bond within the binding pocket. To determine whether domain 5 harbors a carbohydrate-binding site, a construct that encodes domain 5 alone (Dom5His) was expressed in Pichia pastoris. Microarray analysis using 30 different oligosaccharides demonstrated that Dom5His bound specifically to a Man-6-P-containing oligosaccharide (pentamannosyl 6-phosphate). Frontal affinity chromatography showed that the affinity of Dom5His for Man-6-P was approximately 300-fold lower (K(i) = 5.3 mm) than that observed for domains 1-3 and 9. The interaction affinity for the lysosomal enzyme beta-glucuronidase was also much lower (K(d) = 54 microm) as determined by surface plasmon resonance analysis. Taken together, these results demonstrate that the CI-MPR contains a third Man-6-P recognition site that is located in domain 5 and that exhibits lower affinity than the carbohydrate-binding sites present in domains 1-3 and 9.
