The contractile vacuole system is an osmoregulatory organelle composed of cisternae and interconnecting ducts. Large cisternae act as bladders that periodically fuse with the plasma membrane, forming pores to expel water. To visualize the entire network in vivo and to identify constituents of the vacuolar complex in cell fractions, we introduced a specific marker into Dictyostelium cells, GFP-tagged dajumin. The C-terminal, GFP-tagged region of this transmembrane protein is responsible for sorting to the contractile vacuole complex. Dajumin-GFP negligibly associates with the plasma membrane, indicating its retention during discharge of the bladder. Fluorescent labeled cell-surface constituents are efficiently internalized by endocytosis, while no significant cycling through the contractile vacuole is observed. Endosomes loaded with yeast particles or a fluid-phase marker indicate sharp separation of the endocytic pathway from the contractile vacuole compartment. Even after dispersion of the contractile vacuole system during mitosis, dajumin-GFP distinguishes the vesicles from endosomes, and visualizes post-mitotic re-organization of the network around the nucleus. Highly discriminative sorting and membrane fusion mechanisms are proposed to account for the sharp separation of the contractile vacuole and endosomal compartments. Evidence for a similar compartment in other eukaryotic cells is discussed.
