The MAL proteolipid is an integral membrane protein identified as a component of the raft machinery for apical sorting of membrane proteins in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells. Previous studies have implicated lipid rafts in the transport of exogenous thyroglobulin (Tg), the predominant secretory protein of thyroid epithelial cells, to the apical surface in MDCK cells. We have examined the secretion of recombinant Tg and gp80/clusterin, a major endogenous secretory protein not detected in Triton X-100 insoluble rafts, for the investigation of the involvement of MAL in the constitutive apical secretory pathway of MDCK cells. We show that MAL depletion impairs apical secretion of Tg and causes its accumulation in the Golgi. Cholesterol sequestration, which blocks apical secretion of Tg, did not alter the levels of MAL in rafts but created a block proximal to Tg entrance into rafts. Apical secretion of gp80/clusterin was also inhibited by elimination of endogenous MAL. Our results suggest a role for MAL in the transport of both endogenously and exogenously expressed apical secretory proteins in MDCK cells.
