Abstract

Therapeutic use of tiny extracellular vesicles (EVs) requires understanding cargo loading mechanisms. Here, we used a modular proximity label approach to identify EV cargo associated with the transient potential channel (TRP) polycystin PKD-2 of . Polycystins are conserved receptor-TRP channel proteins affecting cilium function; dysfunction causes polycystic kidney disease in humans and mating deficits in . Polycystin-2 EV localization is conserved from algae to humans, hinting at an ancient and unknown function. We discovered that polycystins associate with and direct specific cargo to EVs: channel-like PACL-1, dorsal and ventral membrane C-type lectins PAMLs, and conserved tumor necrosis-associated factor (TRAF) signaling adaptors TRF-1 and TRF-2. Loading of these components relied on polycystin-1 LOV-1. Our modular EV-TurboID approach can be applied in both cell- and tissue-specific manners to define the composition of distinct EV subtypes, addressing a major challenge of the EV field.
