Popis: | Mammalian galectin-1 (Gal-1), a beta-galactoside-binding lectin has a prominent role in regulating cell adhesion, cell growth and immune responses. Downregulation of these biological functions may occur via internalization of Gal-1. In the present study we have investigated the mechanism and possible mediator(s) of Gal-1 endocytosis. We show that internalization occurs at a temperature higher than 22 degrees C in an energy dependent fashion. After one hour incubation Gal-1 localizes in the Golgi system within the cells, and then disappears without accumulation in degradation compartments, such as lysosomes. Based on their strong intracellular co-localization, two glycoconjugates, GM1 ganglioside and CD7 are implicated in the sorting of internalized Gal-1 into Golgi. Other known Gal-1 binding glycoproteins on T cells (CD2, CD3, CD43 and CD45) do not cointernalize with the lectin. Internalization of Gal-1 depends on its lectin activity and follows dual pathways involving clathrin-coated vesicles and raft-dependent endocytosis. |
