KDEL receptor is a cell surface receptor that cycles between the plasma membrane and the Golgi via clathrin-mediated transport carriers

KDEL receptor cycles between the ER and the Golgi to retrieve ER-resident chaperones that get leaked to the secretory pathway during protein export from the ER. Recent studies have shown that a fraction of KDEL receptor may reside in the plasma membrane and function as a putative cell surface recept...

Description
Summary:KDEL receptor cycles between the ER and the Golgi to retrieve ER-resident chaperones that get leaked to the secretory pathway during protein export from the ER. Recent studies have shown that a fraction of KDEL receptor may reside in the plasma membrane and function as a putative cell surface receptor. However, the trafficking itinerary and mechanism of cell surface expressed KDEL receptor remains largely unknown. In this study, we used N-terminally Halo-tagged KDEL receptor to investigate its endocytosis from the plasma membrane and trafficking itinerary of the endocytosed receptor through the endolysosomal compartments. Our results indicate that surface-expressed KDEL receptor undergoes highly complex recycling pathways via the Golgi and peri-nuclear recycling endosomes that are positive for Rab11 and Rab14, respectively. Unexpectedly, KDEL receptor appears to preferentially utilize clathrin-mediated endocytic pathway as well as clathrin-dependent transport carriers for export from the trans -Golgi network. Taken together, we suggest that KDEL receptor may be a bona fide cell surface receptor with a complex, yet well-defined trafficking itinerary through the endolysosomal compartments.
