Abstract：
:We present the first evidence that secretory organelle docking at the cell membrane can be reversed in vivo. In nondischarge (nd) mutants of Paramecium tetraurelia all trichocysts can be detached from the cell surface within 2-3 h by different means, including cytochalasin B (but not D), high cell density, or Ca2+ ionophores. Considering the well-established ultrastructural differences between nd and wild-type (wt) cells, one can conclude that trichocyst docking at the cell periphery involves two docking sites (I, II): Site I ties the organelles to the epiplasm, and site II is the connection to the cell membrane at the fusogenic zone (expressed only in wt cells); both sites are close to the cell surface and only 150 nm apart. When the trigger for detachment of cortically docked trichocysts (high cell density, cytochalasin B) is relieved, trichocysts are synchronously reattached at the cell membrane, within 40-50 min, with a rate of 20-40 organelles/min, which far exceeds spontaneous docking rates. This is therefore also the first report on synchronization of secretory organelle docking. It is shown by radioactive leucine labeling that the same organelles are redocked, because trichocyst biogenesis is minimal under the conditions of de/redocking used. Surprisingly not only redocking but also detachment of trichocysts from the cell surface can be abolished by inhibitors of protein synthesis. Since Ca2+ ionophores mimic the effects of other conditions sufficient to detach trichocysts from the cell surface, we assume that a protein-dependent mechanism sensitive to Ca2+ (or other ions in exchange) may operate in trichocyst detachment. The precise mechanism involved in attachment or detachment of trichocysts remains to be elucidated.
