| Research Abstract |
Wnts are glycan- and lipid-modified morphogens that are important for cellular responses, but how Wnt is secreted in polarized epithelial cells remains unclear. Here we show the apicobasal secretion of Wnts is regulated by different mechanisms. Wnt11 and Wnt3a were secreted apically and basolaterally, respectively, in polarized epithelial cells. Wntless was localized to the basolateral membrane. Mass-spectrometric analyses revealed that Wnt11 is modified with complex/hybrid-(Asn40), high-mannose-(Asn90), and high-mannose/hybrid-(Asn300) type glycans and that Wnt3a is modified with two high-mannose-type glycans (Asn87 and Asn298). Glycosylation processing at Asn40 and galectin-3 were required for the apical secretion of Wnt11, while clathrin and adaptor protein-1 were required for the basolateral secretion of Wnt3a. These results suggest that Wls has different roles on the polarized secretion of Wnt11 and Wnt3a and that glycosylation processing of Wnts decides their secretory routes
