Targeting of lysosomal integral membrane protein LIMP II. The tyrosine- lacking carboxyl cytoplasmic tail of LIMP II is sufficient for direct targeting to lysosomes

Time course experiments of the localization of rat LIMP II expressed in COS cells show that the protein is transported directly from the Golgi complex to lysosomes. Substitution of the tyrosine-lacking carboxyl cytoplasmic tail of LIMP II for the native cytoplasmic tails of the plasma membrane proteins CD36 and CD8 resulted in straight transport of both proteins to lysosomes. The synthetic tyrosine-containing heptapeptide, RGTGVYG, did not replace the natural carboxyl cytoplasmic tail of LIMP II in its ability to transport both CD36 and CD8 to lysosomes, and the two constructs were transported to and expressed at the plasma membrane. Substitution of the cytoplasmic tails of either CD36 or CD8 for the carboxyl cytoplasmic tail of LIMP II resulted in transport of the mutants to the plasma membrane where they underwent endocytosis before accumulating into lysosomes. The results indicate that a motif contained in the tyrosine-lacking carboxyl cytoplasmic tail of LIMP II is sufficient to target proteins directly from the Golgi complex to lysosomes.
