Abstract

Pig small intestinal mucosal explants, labelled with [35S]-methionine, were fractionated into Mg2+-precipitated (intracellular and basolateral) and microvillar membranes, and the orientation of newly synthesized aminopeptidase N (EC 3.4.11.2) in vesicles from the two fractions was studied by its accessibility to proteolytic cleavage. The mature polypeptide of Mr 166 000 from the latter fraction was cleaved by trypsin, proteinase K and papain, consistent with an extracellular location of the enzyme at its site of function. In contrast, both the mature form and the transient form of Mr 140 000 from the Mg2+-precipitated fraction were equally well protected from proteolytic cleavage (in the absence of Triton X-100). This indicates that the basolateral plasma membrane is unlikely to be involved in the post-Golgi transport of newly synthesized aminopeptidase N and suggests instead a direct delivery of the enzyme to the apical plasma membrane. A crude membrane preparation from labelled explants was used in immunoelectrophoretic purification of membranes to determine at what stage during intracellular transport newly synthesized microvillar enzymes are sorted, i.e., accumulated in areas of the membrane from where other proteins are excluded. The transient form of aminopeptidase N was only moderately enriched by immunopurification, using antibodies against different microvillar enzymes, but the mature form was enriched approximately 30-fold from explants, labelled for 30 min. This suggests that for microvillar enzymes, the aspects of sorting studied take place in, or shortly after exit from, the Golgi complex.
