Immunolocalization of cytoplasmic dynein to lysosomes in cultured cells

SX Lin and CA Collins
Department of Cell, Molecular and Structural Biology, Northwestern University Medical School, Chicago, IL 60611.

Polyclonal antisera have been raised against cytoplasmic dynein purified from calf brain and rat testis. These antibodies reacted most strongly with the 74 kDa dynein intermediate chain, but also recognized the 410 kDa heavy chain, and the 150 and 45 kDa polypeptides previously observed to copurify with cytoplasmic dynein from rat tissues. Localization studies were performed by indirect immunofluorescence microscopy using a fibroblast cell line. Dynein-specific staining appeared vesicular, distributed throughout the cell, but more concentrated near the nucleus. Double-labeling studies using fluorescent markers for membranous organelles indicated a co-localization of dynein with lysosomes. The distribution of the dynein-positive lysosomes was disrupted by treatment of the cells with microtubule-active drugs, and by acidification of the cytoplasm. Comparison of the distribution of lysosomes with peripheral microtubules indicated a high degree of coincidence. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that cytoplasmic dynein is involved in retrograde-directed movement of membranous organelles. In mitotic cells, dynein staining was also apparent along the microtubules of the mitotic apparatus, though vesicular staining was still conspicuous. The presence of dynein on vesicles as well as on spindle microtubules indicates that dynein distribution between these compartments may be regulated by distinct binding proteins.
