We have previously shown that a human picornavirus echovirus 1 (EV1) is transported to caveosomes during 2 h together with its receptor
2
1 integrin. Here we show that the majority of early uptake does not occur through caveolae.
2
1 integrin, clustered by antibodies or by EV1 binding, is initially internalized from lipid rafts into tubulo-vesicular structures. These vesicles accumulate fluid-phase markers but do not initially colocalize with caveolin-1 or internalized SV40 (SV40). Furthermore, the internalized endosomes do not contain GPI-anchored proteins or flotillin 1 suggesting that clustered
2
1 integrin does not enter the GEEC (GPI-anchored protein enriched endosomal compartment) or flotillin pathways, respectively. Endosomes mature further into larger multivesicular bodies between 15 min to 2 h and concomitantly recruit caveolin-1 or SV40 inside. Cell entry is regulated by Pak1, Rac1, PI3 kinase, PLC, and actin but not by dynamin 2 in SAOS-
2
1 cells. An amiloride analog, EIPA, blocks infection, causes integrin accumulation in early tubulovesicular structures and prevents their structural maturation into multivesicular structures. Our results altogether suggest that
2
1 integrin clustering defines its own entry pathway which is Pak1 dependent but clathrin and caveolin independent and which is able to sort cargo to caveosomes.
