The human 46-kDa mannose 6-phosphate receptor (MPR46) is phosphorylated in its cytoplasmic domain at serine residues. Substitution of cytoplasmic serines (at positions 35 and 56) with alanine, expression of mutant receptors in baby hamster kidney cells, and phosphopeptide mapping revealed that serine 56 is phosphorylated. Mutant MPR46 and wild-type MPR46 were found to be similarly distributed between the cell surface and intracellular membranes. Phosphate incorporation in the presence of cycloheximide indicates that phosphorylation occurred on pre-existing MPR46. Similar half-lives for the wild-type and mutant receptor proteins (approximately 43 h) and the receptor-associated phosphate (1.4 h) were found. The mutant receptors were internalized at the same rate as the wild-type receptors. Expression of mutant MPR46 and wild-type MPR46 in mouse L-cells deficient in 300-kDa mannose 6-phosphate receptors did not affect the sorting of newly synthesized cathepsin D to lysosomes. Phosphorylation of cytoplasmic serine 56 is therefore essential neither for stability nor for cell-surface expression and transport activities of MPR46.

Up to 4% of the human 46-kDa mannose 6-phosphate receptor (MPR46) expressed in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells are localized at the cell surface. At steady state, the expression of MPR46 on the apical surface of filter-grown MDCK cells is about sixfold lower than on the basolateral surface. The cytoplasmic domain of the MPR46 is phosphorylated on serine 56 at low stoichiometry. By expressing mutant MPR46 we have shown that the MPR46 phosphorylation site is required for delivery to the plasma membrane. In addition, mutant MPR46 expressed in MPR-deficient mouse embryonic fibroblasts were not detected at the cell surface and their ability to sort newly synthesized cathepsin D was not altered. Since the loss of MPR46 phosphorylation correlates with the lack of cell surface expression, phosphorylation of serine 56 may either function as a direct plasma membrane targeting signal or inhibit MPR46 recycling from endosomes to Golgi, resulting in trafficking to the cell surface.

PC12 cells express well cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptors (CI-MPR), but not cation-dependent (CD)-MPR as much. To examine CD-MPR dependency of transport of cathepsins B and D to lysosomes in PC12 cells, we prepared the cells overexpressing CD-MPR. Immunoreactivity for cathepsin B became more distinct and larger in size in the transfected cells than in wild-type cells. No difference in the distribution of cathepsin D was seen between these two cells. The viability of the cells following serum deprivation was significantly higher in the transfected cells than in wild-type cells. This increased viability of the transfected cells was blocked by CA074, a specific inhibitor of cathepsin B, while pepstatin A suppressed the action of CA074. The results suggest that CD-MPR preferentially transport cathepsin B in PC12 cells, and cathepsins B and D participate in the regulation of PC12 cell apoptosis.

Viable mice nullizygous in genes encoding the 300 kDa and the 46 kDa mannose 6-phosphate receptors (MPR 300 and MPR 46) and the insulin like growth factor II (IGF II) were generated to study the trafficking of lysosomal enzymes in the absence of MPRs. The mice have an I-cell disease-like phenotype, with increase of lysosomal enzymes in serum and normal activities in tissues. Surprisingly, the ability of MPR-deficient cells to transport newly synthesized lysosomal enzymes to lysosomes and the underlying mechanisms were found to depend on the cell type. MPR-deficient thymocytes target newly synthesized cathepsin D to lysosomes via an intracellular route. In contrast, hepatocytes and fibroblasts secrete newly synthesized cathepsin D. In fibroblasts recapture of secreted lysosomal enzymes, including that of cathepsin D, is limited and results in lysosomal storage, both in vivo and in vitro, whereas recapture by hepatocytes is remarkably effective in vivo and can result in lysosomal enzyme levels even above normal.

The GGAs (Golgi-localizing, gamma-adaptin ear homology domain, ARF-binding) are a multidomain family of proteins implicated in protein trafficking between the Golgi and endosomes. Recent evidence has established that the cation-independent (CI) and cation-dependent (CD) mannose 6-phosphate receptors (MPRs) bind specifically to the VHS domains of the GGAs through acidic cluster-dileucine motifs at the carboxyl ends of their cytoplasmic tails. However, the CD-MPR binds the VHS domains more weakly than the CI-MPR. Alignment of the C-terminal residues of the two receptors revealed a number of non-conservative differences in the acidic cluster-dileucine motifs and the flanking residues. Mutation of these residues in the CD-MPR cytoplasmic tail to the corresponding residues in the CI-MPR conferred either full binding (H63D mutant), intermediate binding (R60S), or unchanged binding (E56F/S57H) to the GGAs as determined by in vitro glutathione S-transferase pull-down assays. Furthermore, the C-terminal methionine of the CD-MPR, but not the C-terminal valine of the CI-MPR, inhibited GGA binding. Addition of four alanines to the C-terminal valine of the CI-MPR also severely reduced GGA binding, demonstrating the importance of the spacing of the acidic cluster-dileucine motif relative to the C terminus for optimal GGA interaction. Mouse L cells stably expressing CD-MPRs with mutations that enhance GGA binding sorted cathepsin D more efficiently than wild-type CD-MPR. These studies provide an explanation for the observed differences in the relative affinities of the two MPRs for the GGA proteins. Furthermore, they indicate that the GGAs participate in lysosomal enzyme sorting mediated by the CD-MPR.

In LAMP-2-deficient mice autophagic vacuoles accumulate in many tissues, including liver, pancreas, muscle, and heart. Here we extend the phenotype analysis using cultured hepatocytes. In LAMP-2-deficient hepatocytes the half-life of both early and late autophagic vacuoles was prolonged as evaluated by quantitative electron microscopy. However, an endocytic tracer reached the autophagic vacuoles, indicating delivery of endo/lysosomal constituents to autophagic vacuoles. Enzyme activity measurements showed that the trafficking of some lysosomal enzymes to lysosomes was impaired. Immunoprecipitation of metabolically labeled cathepsin D indicated reduced intracellular retention and processing in the knockout cells. The steady-state level of 300-kDa mannose 6-phosphate receptor was slightly lower in LAMP-2-deficient hepatocytes, whereas that of 46-kDa mannose 6-phosphate receptor was decreased to 30% of controls due to a shorter half-life. Less receptor was found in the Golgi region and in vesicles and tubules surrounding multivesicular endosomes, suggesting impaired recycling from endosomes to the Golgi. More receptor was found in autophagic vacuoles, which may explain its shorter half-life. Our data indicate that in hepatocytes LAMP-2 deficiency either directly or indirectly leads to impaired recycling of 46-kDa mannose 6-phosphate receptors and partial mistargeting of a subset of lysosomal enzymes. Autophagic vacuoles may accumulate due to impaired capacity for lysosomal degradation.

The Mannose 6-phosphate receptor (MPR's) proteins are important for transporting lysosomal enzymes from trans-golgi to the pre-lysosomal compartment. These are conserved in the vertebrates from fish to mammals. We have cloned the full length cDNA for the goat MPR 46 protein and compared its sequences to the other known vertebrate MPR 46 proteins. In the present study the full-length cDNA for the goat MPR 46 protein was expressed in MPR deficient cells. The expressed protein was purified on the multivalent phosphomannan gel in the presence of divalent metal ions. The apparent molecular mass of the expressed protein was found to be approximately 46 kDa and also exhibits oligomeric nature as observed in the other species, by using an MSC1 antibody (that recognizes the MPR 46 from molluscs to mammals) as well as with a peptide specific antibody corresponding to amino acid residues (218-237) of the cytoplasmic tail of human MPR 46 protein. Furthermore the distribution of the expressed protein was visualized by immunofluorescence using MSC1 and LAMP1 antibody. Additionally in the goat MPR 46 expressing cells, the sorting function of the expressed protein to sort cathepsin D to lysosomes was studied by confocal microscopy using cathepsin D antiserum and LAMP1 antibody. The binding of goat MPR 46 to cathepsin D was shown in far Western blotting and the mannose 6-phosphate dependent binding was shown by co-immunoprecipitation.

Mammalian mannose 6-phosphate (M6P) receptors function in transport of lysosomal enzymes. To understand the structural and functional significance of the chicken cation dependent mannose 6-phosphate receptor (MPR) (Mr 46 kDa), a full-length cDNA for the chicken protein was cloned and expressed in mpr(-/-) MEF cells devoid of both the receptors. The stably transfected cells express the receptor that could be affinity purified by phosphomannan chromatography. The authenticity of the receptor was confirmed by its immuno-reactivity with mammalian MPR 46 antibodies and its ability to sort cathepsin D in transfected cells (92.3%) as compared to mock transfected cells (50.2%), establishing a functional role for the chicken receptor.
