HLA-DO is an intracellular non-classical class II
major histocompatibility complex molecule expressed in the endocytic
pathway of B lymphocytes, which regulates the loading of antigenic
peptides onto classical class II molecules such as HLA-DR. The activity of HLA-DO is mediated through its interaction with the peptide editor
HLA-DM. Here, our results demonstrate that although HLA-DO is
absolutely dependent on its association with DM to egress the endoplasmic reticulum, the cytoplasmic portion of its chain encodes
a functional lysosomal sorting signal. By confocal microscopy and flow
cytometry analysis, we show that reporter transmembrane molecules fused
to the cytoplasmic tail of HLA-DO accumulated in
Lamp-1+ vesicles of transfected HeLa cells.
Mutagenesis of a leucine-leucine motif abrogated lysosomal accumulation
and resulted in cell surface redistribution of reporter molecules.
Finally, we show that mutation of the di-leucine sequence in DO did
not alter its lysosomal sorting when associated with DM molecules.
Taken together, these results demonstrate that lysosomal expression of
the DO-DM complex is mediated primarily by the tyrosine-based
motif of HLA-DM and suggest that the DO -encoded motif is involved in
the fine-tuning of the intracellular sorting.
