Constitutive activation of S1P receptors at the trans-Golgi network is required for surface transport carrier formation.

ABSTRACT: The importance of the G-protein βγ subunits in the regulation of cargo transport from the trans-Golgi network (TGN) to the plasma membrane (PM) is well accepted; however, the molecular mechanism underlying the G-protein activation at the TGN remains unclear. We show here that sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) receptors at the PM were trafficked to the TGN in response to a surface transport cargo, temperature-sensitive vesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein tagged with green fluorescent protein accumulation in the Golgi. The receptor internalization occurred in an S1P-independent manner but required phosphorylation by G-protein receptor kinase 2 and β-arrestin association before internalization. Continuously activated S1P receptors in a manner dependent on S1P at the TGN kept transmitti
