Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChRs) can
be differentially localized in polarized cells. To identify potential
sorting signals that mediate mAChR targeting, we examined the sorting of mAChRs in Madin-Darby canine kidney cells, a widely used model system. Expression of FLAG-tagged mAChRs in polarized Madin-Darby canine kidney cells demonstrated that the M2 subtype
is sorted apically, whereas M3 is targeted basolaterally.
Expression of M2/M3 receptor chimeras revealed
that a 21-residue sequence, Ser271-Ser291,
from the M3 third intracellular loop contains a basolateral sorting signal. Substitution of sequences containing the M3
sorting signal into the homologous regions of M2 was
sufficient to confer basolateral localization to this apical receptor.
Sequences containing the M3 sorting signal also conferred
basolateral targeting to M2 when added to either the third
intracellular loop or the C-terminal cytoplasmic tail. Furthermore,
addition of a sequence containing the M3 basolateral
sorting signal to the cytoplasmic tail of the interleukin-2 receptor
-chain caused significant basolateral targeting of this heterologous
apical protein. The results indicate that the M3
basolateral sorting signal is dominant over apical signals in
M2 and acts in a position-independent manner. The
M3 sorting signal represents a novel basolateral targeting
motif for G protein-coupled receptors.
