We have used artificial phosphatidylethanolamine-polyethylene glycol (PE-PEG)-anchored proteins, incorporated into living mammalian cells, to evaluate previously proposed roles for ordered lipid 'raft' domains in the post-endocytic trafficking of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins in CHO and BHK cells. In CHO cells, endocytosed PE-PEG protein conjugates colocalized strongly with the internalized GPI-anchored folate receptor, concentrating in the endosomal recycling compartment, regardless of the structure of the hydrocarbon chains of the PE-PEG 'anchor'. However, internalized PE-PEG protein conjugates with long-chain saturated anchors recycled to the plasma membrane at a slow rate comparable to that measured for the GPI-anchored folate receptor, whereas conjugates with short-chain or unsaturated anchors recycled at a faster rate similar to that observed for the transferrin receptor. These findings support the proposal (Mayor et al. Cholesterol-dependent retention of GPI-anchored proteins in endosomes. EMBO J 1998; 17:4628-4638) that the slow recycling of GPI proteins in CHO cells rests on their affinity for ordered lipid domains. In BHK cells, internalized PE-PEG protein conjugates with either saturated or unsaturated 'anchors' colocalized strongly with simultaneously endocytosed folate receptor and, like the folate receptor, gradually accumulated in late endosomes/lysosomes. These latter findings do not support previous suggestions that the sorting of GPI proteins to late endosomes in BHK cells depends on their association with lipid rafts.
