Significance Our findings represent a fundamental advance in general understanding of the mechanisms of exocytosis in polarized epithelial cells that are crucial for the establishment and maintenance of epithelial cell polarity. Moreover, our data also improve the knowledge on the machinery regulating polarized trafficking of glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored proteins, a class of lipid-associated proteins playing diverse vital functions, unraveling an unexpected role of calcium in their apical sorting.
