The high molecular mass protein, HD1, is a structural protein present in hemidesmosomes as well as in distinct adhesion structures termed type II hemidesmosomes. We have studied the distribution and expression of HD1 in the GD25 cells, derived from murine embryonal stem cells deficient for the beta 1 integrin subunit. We report here that these cells possess HD1 but not BP230 or BP180; two other hemidesmosomal constituents, and express only traces of the alpha 6 beta 4 integrin. By immunofluorescence and interference reflection microscopy HD1 was found together with vinculin at the end of actin filaments in focal contacts. In OVCAR-4 cells, derived from a human ovarian carcinoma which, like GD25 cells, only weakly express alpha 6 beta 4, HD1 was also localized in focal contacts. Upon transfection of both GD25 and OVCAR-4 cells with cDNA for the human beta 4 subunit the subcellular distribution of HD1 changed significantly. HD1 is then no longer present in focal contacts but in other structures at cell-substrate contacts, colocalized with alpha 6 beta 4. These junctional complexes are probably the equivalent of the type II hemidesmosomes. Transfection of GD25 cells with beta 1 cDNA did not affect the distribution of HD1, which indicates that the localization of HD1 in focal contacts was not due to the absence of beta 1. Moreover, in GD25 cells transfected with cDNA encoding a beta 4/beta 1 chimera, in which the cytoplasmic domain of beta 4 was replaced by that of beta 1, the distribution of HD1 was unaffected. Our findings indicate that the cytoplasmic domain of beta 4 determines the subcellular distribution of HD1 and emphasize the important role of alpha 6 beta 4 in the assembly of hemidesmosomes and other junctional adhesive complexes containing HD1.
