Neurons are polarized cells, the activity of which relies on the
morphological and functional differences between their axonal and
somatodendritic domains. One mechanism for establishing and maintaining
neuronal polarity is via the selective targeting of proteins to these
domains. The endocytic pathway plays a major role in the generation and
maintenance of cellular polarity by selectively sorting and recycling
endocytosed plasma membrane proteins. In this study we first show that
endogenous syntaxin 13 localizes to tubulovesicular organelles that are
present in the somatodendritic and axonal domains of neurons. These
organelles contain and actively recycle transferrin receptor and are
sensitive to brefeldin A, suggesting that they are analogous to the
tubulovesicular recycling endosomes in non-neuronal cells. We next use
a syntaxin 13-GFP fusion protein transiently expressed in hippocampal
neurons, together with time-lapse microscopy, to study the dynamics of the endosomal system in neurons. The analysis revealed the presence of
two distinct classes of syntaxin 13-labeled endosomes: round-oval stationary organelles and highly mobile tubulovesicular structures. The
dynamic population of tubulovesicular endosomes travels in both
directions along microtubules in dendrites and axons. The mobile
organelles appear to fuse with and bud from the stationary endosomes,
possibly as a means of delivering and picking up their cargo.
