3A subunit of adaptor complex-3 (AP-3) and
functional deficiency of this complex. AP-3 serves as a coat protein in
the formation of new vesicles, including, apparently, the platelet's dense body and the melanocyte's melanosome. We used HPS-2 melanocytes in culture to determine the role of AP-3 in the trafficking of the
melanogenic proteins tyrosinase and tyrosinase-related protein-1 (TRP-1). TRP-1 displayed a typical melanosomal pattern in both normal
and HPS-2 melanocytes. In contrast, tyrosinase exhibited a melanosomal
(i.e., perinuclear and dendritic) pattern in normal cells but only a
perinuclear pattern in the HPS-2 melanocytes. In addition, tyrosinase
exhibited a normal pattern of expression in HPS-2 melanocytes
transfected with a cDNA encoding the
3A subunit of the AP-3 complex.
This suggests a role for AP-3 in the normal trafficking of tyrosinase
to premelanosomes, consistent with the presence of a dileucine
recognition signal in the C-terminal portion of the tyrosinase
molecule. In the AP-3-deficient cells, tyrosinase was also present in
structures resembling late endosomes or multivesicular bodies; these
vesicles contained exvaginations devoid of tyrosinase. This suggests
that, under normal circumstances, AP-3 may act on multivesicular bodies
to form tyrosinase-containing vesicles destined to fuse with
premelanosomes. Finally, our studies demonstrate that tyrosinase and
TRP-1 use different mechanisms to reach their premelanosomal destination.
