Protein kinase C (PKC) has been implicated in beta1 integrin-mediated cell migration. Expression of the novel PKC isoform, PKCepsilon, in PKCepsilon(-/-) cells is shown here to stimulate directional migration of cells towards beta1 integrin substrates in a manner dependent on PKC catalytic activity. On PKC inhibition, integrin beta1 and PKCepsilon become reversibly trapped in a tetraspanin (CD81)-positive intracellular compartment, correlating with reduced haptotaxis. Immunofluorescence and pulse labelling studies indicate that this is a previously uncharacterized recycling compartment trapped by inhibition of PKC. Electron microscopy demonstrated the co-localization of PKCepsilon and integrin beta1 on the vesicular membranes. Finally, using a reconstituted in vitro system, the dissociation of PKCepsilon from these vesicles is shown to be dependent on both the presence of cytosolic components and energy, and on PKC catalytic activity. The evidence presented indicates that PKCepsilon controls an internal traffic step that under uninhibited conditions permits the recycling of beta1 integrin, contributing to cell motility.
