Abstract
The intestinal epithelial cell (enterocyte) forms an interesting type of polarized cell to study the sorting of endogenous membrane proteins (for reviews see Ginsel et al., 1988; Fransen et al., 1988; and Hauri, 1988). It is characterized by a typical brush border (apical or microvillar) membrane containing hydrolases involved in the terminal digestion of dietary carbohydrates and peptides, and a basolateral membrane with different structural and functional properties. Studies on the pathways and mechanisms of protein sorting in this type of cell have been going on for a relatively long period. The data on the transport pathways were however, controversial. It was unclear whether the brush-border hydrolases are directly transported from the Golgi apparatus to the apical membrane (Danielsen and Cowell, 1985; Fransen et al., 1985) or, indirectly, via the basolateral membrane (Hauri et al., 1979; Massey et al., 1987).
