The low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein (LRP) is a large, endocytic receptor involved in intracellular signalling. LRP acts as a co-receptor with the PDGF-receptor (PDGF-r) for platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF). PDGF-r and Src-kinases induce tyrosine-phosphorylation of LRP. We used fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) to specifically detect LRP phosphorylation, measure its extent and localization in intact cells, and assess its effects upon LRP-APP interaction. Robust phosphorylation of LRP throughout the cell was observed after overexpression of Src-kinase. This depended on LRP's distal NPXY domain. By contrast, activation of the PDGF-r resulted in phosphorylation of the subpopulation of LRP at or near the cell surface. PDGF activation triggered phosphorylation of endogenous LRP in primary neurons. LRP is also a trafficking receptor for the Alzheimer-related molecule amyloid-precursor-protein (APP). PDGF stimulation did not affect LRP-APP interactions. This approach allows exquisite subcellular resolution of specific LRP post-translational changes and protein-protein interactions of endogenous proteins in intact cells.
