The occurrence of matriptase C-terminal fragments on the apical and basolateral sides of Madin-Darby canine kidney epithelial cells.

چکیده
Matriptase is a type II transmembrane serine protease. In the present study, matriptase C-terminal fragments containing the catalytic serine protease domain were found to occur on the apical and basolateral sides of Madin-Darby canine kidney epithelial cells transfected with a cDNA encoding the protease. This suggests that matriptase interacts with various potential substrates when expressed in simple epithelia.

Cdc42-dependent modulation of tight junctions and membrane protein traffic in polarized Madin-Darby canine kidney cells.
Polarized epithelial cells maintain the asymmetric composition of their apical and basolateral membrane domains by at least two different processes. These include the regulated trafficking of macromolecules from the biosynthetic and endocytic pathway to the appropriate membrane domain and the ability of the tight junction to prevent free mixing of membrane domain-specific proteins and lipids. C...
متن کاملIntracellular redirection of plasma membrane trafficking after loss of epithelial cell polarity.
In polarized Madin-Darby canine kidney epithelial cells, components of the plasma membrane fusion machinery, the t-SNAREs syntaxin 2, 3, and 4 and SNAP-23, are differentially localized at the apical and/or basolateral plasma membrane domains. Here we identify syntaxin 11 as a novel apical and basolateral plasma membrane t-SNARE. Surprisingly, all of these t-SNAREs redistribute to intracellular ...
متن کاملModulation of the expression of an apical plasma membrane protein of Madin-Darby canine kidney epithelial cells: cell-cell interactions control the appearance of a novel intracellular storage compartment
Experimental conditions that abolish or reduce to a minimum intercellular contacts between Madin-Darby canine kidney epithelial cells result in the appearance of an intracellular storage compartment for apical membrane proteins. Subconfluent culture, incubation in 1-5 microM Ca++, or inclusion of dissociated cells within agarose or collagen gels all caused the intracellular accumulation of a 18...
متن کاملEvidence for the occurrence of membrane-type serine protease 1/matriptase on the basolateral sides of enterocytes.
MT-SP1 (membrane-type serine protease 1)/matriptase is an epithelial-derived integral membrane enzyme. The purpose of the present study was to examine whether the enzyme exists on the basolateral side of simple columnar epithelial cells, such as enterocytes, of normal adult animals. Using COS-1 monkey kidney cells transiently transfected with rat MT-SP1/matriptase expression plasmids, we found ...
متن کاملSorting functions of the individual cytoplasmic domains of the G protein-coupled vasopressin V(2) receptor in Madin Darby canine kidney epithelial cells.
Previous studies have shown that the G protein-coupled human vasopressin V(2) receptor (V(2) receptor) is expressed predominantly in the basolateral membrane of Madin Darby canine kidney type II (MDCKII) epithelial cells at steady state. Here we have assessed the influence of the individual cytoplasmic domains of the V(2) receptor on polarized sorting in MDCKII cells. The second (ICL2) and thir...
