An endogenous Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) lysosomal membrane glycoprotein that exhibits a basolateral targeting pathway to the lysosome is shown here to exhibit significant N-terminal amino acid sequence identity to lysosomal associated membrane proteins (LAMP-2) of other species. During establishment of the MDCK monolayer after only 1 d of culture, this canine LAMP-2 has a larger molecular size (110 kDa) than following formation of a confluent monolayer after 3 d of culture (100 kDa) due to the increased presence of N-linked polylactosamine oligosaccharide chains. Neither polylactosamine glycosylation of LAMP-2 in MDCK cells nor truncation of N-linked oligosaccharide chains of LAMP-2 in a ricin-resistant MDCK-RCAR cell line influenced the basolateral polarity of its targeting. However, the rate of basolateral delivery of LAMP-2 in MDCK cells plated for 3 d was significantly faster (t1/2 = 28 min) than in 1-d cells (t1/2 = 40 min); in MDCK-RCAR cells the rate of basolateral delivery at both 1 and 3 d of plating was similar (t1/2 = 40 min). The rate differential in MDCK cells occurred after arrival of LAMP-2 to the Golgi apparatus because the rate of acquisition of endoglycosidase H resistance was the same (t1/2 = 25 min) at both days of plating. The rate of transit of LAMP-2 through the Golgi apparatus to the basolateral domain was therefore far more rapid (approximately 4-fold) in 3 d compared with 1-d MDCK cultures. The increased polylactosamine glycosylation of MDCK LAMP-2 at early times of plating during the establishment of a confluent epithelial monolayer may thus be related to its longer residence time in the Golgi apparatus.

molecular biology of the cell

Increased LAMP-2 polylactosamine glycosylation is associated with its slower Golgi transit during establishment of a polarized MDCK epithelial monolayer.
