Abstract
TIP47 (tail-interactingprotein of 47 kDa) binds to the cytoplasmic domains of the cation-independent and cation-dependent mannose 6-phosphate receptors and is required for their transport from late endosomes to the trans Golgi network in vitro andin vivo. We report here a quantitative analysis of the interaction of recombinant TIP47 with mannose 6-phosphate receptor cytoplasmic domains. Recombinant TIP47 binds more tightly to the cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor (K D= 1 μm) than to the cation-dependent mannose 6-phosphate receptor (K D = 3 μm). In addition, TIP47 fails to interact with the cytoplasmic domains of the hormone-processing enzymes, furin, phosphorylated furin, and metallocarboxypeptidase D, as well as the cytoplasmic domain of TGN38, proteins that are also transported from endosomes to the trans Golgi network. Although these proteins failed to bind TIP47, furin and TGN38 were readily recognized by the clathrin adaptor, AP-2. These data suggest that TIP47 recognizes a very select set of cargo molecules. Moreover, our data suggest unexpectedly that furin, TGN38, and carboxypeptidase D may use a distinct vesicular carrier and perhaps a distinct route for transport between endosomes and the trans Golgi network.
