The scission of lipid membranes is a common biological process, often mediated by ESCRT complexes in concert with VPS4 assembling around the separation point. The functions of the ESCRT-I and ESCRT-III complexes are well established in certain of these cellular processes; however, the role of ESCRT-II remains contentious. Here, we devised a SNAP-tag fluorescent labelling strategy to understand the domain requirements of EAP45, the main component of ESCRT-II, in HIV egress, late endosome recruitment, and cytokinesis. We used TIRF microscopy to measure the spatial co-occurrence of the HIV structural polyprotein Gag with full length EAP45 in both fixed and live cells. Gag colocalises with the full length EAP45 comparably to ALIX, but this is lost on deletion of the EAP45 N terminus. Our findings reveal the H0 domain of the EAP45 protein is essential for linking to ESCRT-I during HIV budding and in anchoring at the late endosomal membrane, however in cytokinesis it is the Glue domain that is critical.
