Synaptotagmins 1 and 7 are candidate Call sensors for exocytosis localized to synaptic vesicles and plasma membranes, respectively. We now show that the N-terminal intraluminal sequence of synaptotagmin 1, when transplanted onto synaptotagmin 7, redirects synaptotagmin 7 from the plasma membrane to secretory vesicles. Conversely, mutation of the N-terminal N-glycosylation site of synaptotagmin 1 redirects synaptotagmin 1 from vesicles to the plasma membrane. In cultured hippocampal neurons, the plasma membrane-localized mutant of synaptotagmin 1 suppressed the readily releasable pool of synaptic vesicles, whereas wild-type synaptotagmin 1 did not. In addition to the intraluminal N-glycosylation site, the cytoplasmic C-2 domains of synaptotagmin 1 were required for correct targeting but could be functionally replaced by the C-2 domains of synaptotagmin 7. Our data suggest that the intravesicular N-glycosylation site of synaptotagmin I collaborates with its cytoplasmic C-2 domains in directing synaptotagmin 1 to synaptic vesicles via a novel N-glycosylation-dependent mechanism.
