Purification of the lactose:H+ carrier of Escherichia coli and characterization of galactoside binding and transport 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
The lactose carrier, a galactoside:H+ symporter in Escherichia coli, has been purified from cytoplasmic membranes by pre-extraction of the membranes with 5-sulfosalicylate, solubilization in dodecyl-O-beta-D-maltoside, Ecteola-column chromatography, and removal of residual impurities by anti-impurity antibodies. Subsequently, the purified carrier was reincorporated into E. coli phospholipid vesicles. Purification was monitored by tracer N-[3H]ethylmaleimide-labeled carrier and by binding of the substrate p-nitrophenyl-alpha-D-galactopyranoside. All purified carrier molecules were active in substrate binding and the purified protein was at least 95% pure by several criteria. Substrate binding to the purified carrier in detergent micelles and in reconstituted proteoliposomes yielded a stoichiometry close to one molecule substrate bound per polypeptide chain. Large unilamellar proteoliposomes (1-5-micron diameter) were prepared from initially small reconstituted vesicles by freeze-thaw cycles and low-speed centrifugation. These proteoliposomes catalyzed facilitated diffusion and active transport in response to artificially imposed electrochemical proton gradients (delta mu H+) or one of its components (delta psi or delta pH). Comparison of the steady-state level of galactoside accumulation and the nominal value of the driving gradients yielded cotransport stoichiometries up to 0.7 proton/galactoside, suggesting that the carrier protein is the only component required for active galactoside transport. The half-saturation constants for active uptake of lactose (KT = 200 microM) or beta-D-galactosyl-1-thio-beta-D-galactoside (KT = 50-80 microM) by the purified carrier were found to be similar to be similar to those measured in cells or cytoplasmic membrane vesicles. The maximum rate for active transport expressed as a turnover number was similar in proteoliposomes and cytoplasmic membrane vesicles (kcat = 3-4 s-1 for lactose) but considerably smaller than in cells (kcat = 40-60 s-1). Possible reasons for this discrepancy are discussed. 相似文献

The kinetic mechanism of the lactose transport system of Streptococcus thermophilus was studied in membrane vesicles fused with cytochrome c oxidase containing liposomes and in proteoliposomes in which cytochrome c oxidase was coreconstituted with the lactose transport protein. Selective manipulation of the components of the proton (and sodium) motive force indicated that both a membrane potential and a pH gradient could drive transport. The galactoside/proton stoichiometry was close to unity. Experiments which discriminate between the effects of internal pH and delta pH as driving force on galactoside/proton symport showed that the carrier is highly activated at alkaline internal pH values, which biases the transport system kinetically toward the pH component of the proton motive force. Galactoside efflux increased with increasing pH with a pKa of about 8, whereas galactoside exchange (and counterflow) exhibited a pH optimum around 7 with pKa values of 6 and 8, respectively. Imposition of delta pH (interior alkaline) retarded the rate of efflux at any pH value tested, whereas the rate of exchange was stimulated by an imposed delta pH at pH 5.8, not affected at pH 7.0, and inhibited at pH 8.0 and 9.0. The results have been evaluated in terms of random and ordered association/dissociation of galactoside and proton on the inner surface of the membrane. Imposition of delta psi (interior negative) decreased the rate of efflux but had no effect on the rate of exchange, indicating that the unloaded transport protein carries a net negative charge and that during exchange and counterflow the carrier recycles in the protonated form. 相似文献

A high concentration of SecA allows proton motive force-independent translocation of a model secretory protein into Escherichia coli membrane vesicles 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

The in vitro translocation of OmpF-Lpp, a model secretory protein, into inverted membrane vesicles of Escherichia coli obligatorily requires the proton motive force (delta mu H+) in the conventional assay system (Yamada, H., Tokuda, H., and Mizushima, S. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 1723-1728). The translocation, however, took place efficiently, even in the absence of delta mu H+, when the system was supplemented with additional SecA. With the stripped membrane vesicles, which are permeable to protons, or in the absence of NADH, the supplementation of SecA remarkably stimulated the translocation activity. The further addition of NADH did not significantly enhance the translocation activity under the SecA-enriched conditions. OmpF-Lpp thus translocated could be recovered from the vesicular lumen by sonication, indicating that complete translocation occurred in the absence of delta mu H+. It is suggested that delta mu H+ is required for high affinity interaction of SecA with the presumed secretory machinery in the cytoplasmic membrane and that a high concentration of SecA modulates the delta mu H+ requirement. 相似文献

A hypothesis for the role of dithiol-disulfide interchange in solute transport and energy-transducing processes 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
We have recently shown that the physical mechanism for delta approximately mu H+-driven changes in the Km for three different transport systems is an oxidation-reduction reaction involving a dithiol-disulfide interconversion [Robillard, G.T. and Konings, W.N. (1981) Biochemistry, 20, 5025-5032; Konings, W.N. and Robillard, G.T. (1982) Proc. Natl Acad. Sci. USA, in the press]. Based on the similarities between the data from these three systems and published data from other systems, we now propose that dithiol-disulfide interchange may play a general role in membrane-related processes such as transport, energy transduction and hormone-receptor interactions. We propose that the affinities of the substrate-binding sites are regulated by a dithiol and a disulfide situated at different depths in the membrane. In addition we propose that the oxidation states of these two redox centers are coupled by dithiol-disulfide interchange such that, when one is oxidized, the other is reduced. Since a transmembrane electrical potential, delta psi, or a pH gradient, delta pH, can alter the redox state, it can change the affinity of the substrate-binding sites. The delta approximately mu H+-induced changes in affinity are sufficient to drive active transport (symport or antiport) and energy-transducing processes. A similar mechanism can be applied to transport systems driven by phosphorylated enzyme intermediates instead of delta approximately mu H+. Changes of the redox potential in a given compartment during metabolism could also control the affinity of ligand binding even in the absence of a delta approximately mu H+. The ligand-binding affinities of facilitated diffusion transport systems and receptor proteins may be regulated in this manner. 相似文献

The Escherichia coli lactose carrier is an energy-transducing H+/galactoside cotransport protein which strictly couples sugar and proton transport in 1:1 stoichiometry. Here we describe five lactose carrier mutants which catalyze "uncoupled" sugar-independent H+ transport. Symptoms similar to uncoupling by a proton ionophore have been observed in cells expressing these mutant carriers. The mutations occur at two separate loci, encoding substitutions either for alanine 177 (valine) or tyrosine 236 (histidine, asparagine, phenylalanine, or serine). Compared to the parent, cells expressing the valine 177 carrier grew slowly on minimal media with glucose as carbon source. When washed cells were incubated in the absence of added sugars the mutant showed a reduced protonmotive force compared with the parent. Addition of either thiodigalactoside or alpha-p-nitrophenylgalactoside reduced the defect in protonmotive force. Sugar-independent H+ entry rate into cells expressing either the normal carrier or the Val-177 mutant were measured directly using the pH electrode. Following sudden acidification of the external medium (by either oxygen-pulse or acid-pulse) protons entered more rapidly into cells expressing the Val-177 carrier. This novel sugar-independent mode of H+ transport probably depends on an acquired capacity of the Val-177 carrier to bind the transported proton with higher than normal affinity in a transition state involving the binary carrier/H+ complex. 相似文献

The Escherichia coli K12 strain X71-54 carries the lac YUN allele, coding for a lactose/H+ carrier defective in the accumulation of a number of galactosides [Wilson, Kusch & Kashket (1970) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 40, 1409-1414]. Previous studies proposed that the lower accumulation in the mutant be due to a faulty coupling of H+ and galactoside fluxes via the carrier. Immunochemical characterization of the carriers in membranes from mutant and parent strains with an antibody directed against the C-terminal decapeptide of the wild-type carrier leads to the conclusion that the mutant carrier is similar to the wild-type in terms of apparent Mr, C-terminal sequence, and level of incorporation into the membrane. The pH-dependence of galactoside transport was compared in the mutant and the parent. At pH 8.0-9.0, mutant and parent behave similarly with respect to the accumulation of beta-D-galactosyl 1-thio-beta-D-galactoside and to the ability to grow on the carrier substrate melibiose. At pH 6.0, both the maximal velocity for active transport and the level of accumulation of beta-D-galactosyl-1-thio-beta-D-galactoside are lower in the mutant. The mutant also is unable to grow on melibiose at pH 5.5. However, at pH 6.0 and low galactoside concentrations, the symport stoichiometry is 0.90 H+ per galactoside in the mutant as compared with 1.07 in the parent. These observations suggest that symport is normal in the mutant and that the lower rate of transport in the mutant is responsible for the phenotype. At higher galactoside concentrations, accumulation is determined not only thermodynamically but also kinetically, contrary to a simple interpretation of the chemiosmotic theory. Therefore lower rates of active transport can mimic the effect of uncoupling H+ and galactoside symport. Examination of countertransport in poisoned cells at pH 6.0 reveals that the rate constants for the reorientation of the loaded and unloaded carrier are altered in the mutant. The reorientation of the unloaded carrier is slower in the mutant. However, the reorientation of the galactoside-H+-carrier complex is slower for substrates like melibiose, but faster for substrates like lactose. These findings suggest that lactose-like and melibiose-like substrates interact with the carrier in slightly different ways. 相似文献

To further consider the thermochemical method as a useful approach for active transport research and to investigate the characteristic of a proton electrochemical potential (delta mu H+) across the membrane, the energetics of lactose active transport across Escherichia coli membrane vesicles coupled with an artificial electron donor (phenazine methosulfate-ascorbate) has been investigated. The results were compared with those obtained with an enzyme-associated electron donor (lactate dehydrogenase-D-lactate). The oxidation of an electron donor provided the energy necessary for the transport process. The observed higher heat of ascorbate oxidation reaction in the presence of a proton ionophore (carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone) further confirmed the formation of delta mu H+ across the membrane. Part of the oxidation energy was utilized to form delta mu H+. Comparison of the energetics revealed that the magnitudes of delta Hox (the enthalpy of the oxidation reaction) and delta Hm (the enthalpy of the formation of delta mu H+) in the two energy sources were comparable (-46 kcal/mol of ascorbate to -40 kcal/mol of D-lactate for delta Hox and 9.6 kcal/mol of ascorbate to 14 kcal/mol of D-lactate for delta Hm). Comparable and low value (about 1%) was also found in the free energy transfer (defined by delta Gm/delta Gox) from the oxidation reaction to the formation of delta mu H+. These results, in combination with the close values of delta mu H+ observed in the two systems, suggested that the characteristic of the created delta mu H+ was independent of the energy source. Examination of delta Hm might provide the information on the ratio of the number of protons produced, as 1 mol of two different electron donors was oxidized. The oxidation reaction in the presence of membrane vesicles was discussed. 相似文献

A number of tight urinary epithelia, as exemplified by the turtle bladder, acidify the luminal solution by active transport of H+ across the luminal cell membrane. The rate of active H+ transport (JH) decreases as the electrochemical potential difference for H+ [delta mu H = mu H(lumen) - mu H(serosa)] across the epithelium is increased. The luminal cell membrane has a low permeability for H+ equivalents and a high electrical resistance compared with the basolateral cell membrane. Changes in JH thus reflect changes in active H+ transport across the luminal membrane. To examine the control of JH by delta mu H in the turtle bladder, transepithelial electrical potential differences (delta psi) were imposed at constant acid-base conditions or the luminal pH was varied at delta psi = 0 and constant serosal PCO2 and pH. When the luminal compartment was acidified from pH 7 to 4 or was made electrically positive, JH decreased as a linear function of delta mu H as previously described. When the luminal compartment was made alkaline from pH 7 to 9 or was made electrically negative, JH reached a maximal value, which was the same whether the delta mu H was imposed as a delta pH or a delta psi. The nonlinear JH vs. delta mu H relation does not result from changes in the number of pumps in the luminal membrane or from changes in the intracellular pH, but is a characteristic of the H+ pumps themselves. We propose a general scheme, which, because of its structural features, can account for the nonlinearity of the JH vs. delta mu H relations and, more specifically, for the kinetic equivalence of the effects of the chemical and electrical components of delta mu H. According to this model, the pump complex consists of two components: a catalytic unit at the cytoplasmic side of the luminal membrane, which mediates the ATP-driven H+ translocation, and a transmembrane channel, which mediates the transfer of H+ from the catalytic unit to the luminal solution. These two components may be linked through a buffer compartment for H+ (an antechamber). 相似文献

The proton motive force lowers the level of ATP required for the in vitro translocation of a secretory protein in Escherichia coli 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

The role of the electrochemical potential difference of proton (delta mu H+) in protein translocation across the membrane of Escherichia coli was examined in detail using an efficient in vitro assay system (Yamada, H., Tokuda, H., and Mizushima, S. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 1723-1728). Delta mu H+ reduced the level of ATP necessary for the efficient translocation of OmpF-Lpp, a chimeric model secretory protein. The apparent Km value of the translocation reaction for ATP was lower by 2 orders of magnitude in the presence of delta mu H+ than in its absence. The membrane potential and delta pH, both of which are components of delta mu H+, independently lowered the apparent Km value of the translocation reaction for ATP. An ATP-generating system also lowered the level of ATP required for translocation in the absence of delta mu H+ but not in its presence. It is proposed that ADP formed during protein translocation lowers the affinity of the putative translocation machinery for ATP and that the removal of ADP from the secretory machinery, a possible critical step in the translocation reaction, is stimulated in the presence of either delta mu H+, an ATP-generating system, or a higher concentration of ATP. 相似文献

The kinetics, specificity, and mechanism of branched-chain amino acid transport in Streptococcus cremoris were studied in a membrane system of S. cremoris in which beef heart mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase was incorporated as a proton motive force (delta p)-generating system. Influx of L-leucine, L-isoleucine, and L-valine can occur via a common transport system which is highly selective for the L-isomers of branched chain amino acids and analogs. The pH dependency of the kinetic constants of delta p-driven L-leucine transport and exchange (counterflow) was determined. The maximal rate of delta p-driven transport of L-leucine (Vmax) increased with increasing internal pH, whereas the affinity constant increased with increasing external pH. The affinity constant for exchange (counterflow) varied in a similar fashion with pH, whereas Vmax was pH independent. Further analysis of the pH dependency of various modes of facilitated diffusion, i.e., efflux, exchange, influx, and counterflow, suggests that H+ and L-leucine binding and release to and from the carrier proceed by an ordered mechanism. A kinetic scheme of the translocation cycle of H+-L-leucine cotransport is suggested. 相似文献

We propose a novel class of biosensors based on membrane bound receptors or transport proteins as the sensing element. The protein is incorporated in a planar lipid bilayer which covers the transducer. The transducer may detect an electric current, a voltage, or a change in fluorescence. A prototype lactose sensor is presented which consists of a quartz slide covered by a lipid membrane containing the protein lactose permease from Escherichia coli. This protein is a lactose/H+ cotransporter, hence lactose in the external medium initiates lactose/H+ cotransport across the lipid membrane. This leads to a rise in proton concentration in the small volume between the lipid membrane and the quartz surface which can be detected by a pH-sensitive fluorescence dye. 相似文献

Kinetic analysis of lactose exchange in proteoliposomes reconstituted with purified lac permease 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Lactose exchange catalyzed by purified lac permease reconstituted into proteoliposomes was analyzed with unequal concentrations of lactose on either side of the membrane and at low pH so as to prevent equilibration of the two pools. Exchange with external concentrations below 1.0 mM is a single-exponential process, and the apparent affinity constants for external and internal substrate are close to the apparent KMs reported for active transport and efflux, respectively [Viitanen, P.V., Garcia, M. L., & Kaback, H. R. (1984) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 81, 1629]. At external lactose concentrations above 1.0 mM, a second kinetic pathway becomes evident with an apparent affinity constant of about 6 mM which is similar to the apparent KM for facilitated influx. A second pathway is not observed with respect to internal lactose even when the concentration is increased up to 80 mM. Furthermore, high internal or external lactose concentrations do not inhibit the exchange reaction. Biphasic kinetics with respect to external lactose are retained in a mutant permease that catalyzes exchange but is defective in H(+)-coupled lactose transport. It is suggested that lac permease has more than one binding site and that this may be the underlying reason for the biphasic kinetics observed for both exchange and H(+)-coupled lactose transport. 相似文献

Cooperative regulation of the Na+/H(+)-antiporter in Halobacterium halobium by delta pH and delta phi 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The contributions of the transmembrane pH gradient (delta pH) and electrical potential (delta phi) to the delta mu H(+)-driven Na+ efflux (mediated by the N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-sensitive Na+/H(+)-antiporter) were investigated in membrane vesicles of Halobacterium halobium. Kinetic analysis in the dark revealed that two different Na(+)-binding sites are located asymmetrically across the membrane: One, accessible from the external medium, has a Kd (half-maximal stimulation of Na+ efflux) of about less than 50 mM, and the Na+ binding to the site is a prerequisite for the antiporter activation by delta mu H+. The other cytoplasmic site is the Na+ transport site. The Km for the cytoplasmic Na+ decreased as the delta pH increased, while the Vmax remained essentially constant in the presence of defined delta phi (140 mV). On the other hand, delta phi elevation above the gating potential (approximately 100 mV) increased the Vmax without changes in the Km in the presence of a fixed delta pH. It was also noted that the Km value in the absence of delta phi was completely different from and far higher than that observed in the presence of delta phi (greater than 100 mV), indicating the existence of two distinct conformations in the antiporter, resting and delta phi gated; the latter state may be reactive only to delta pH. On the basis of the present data and the previous data on the pH effect (N. Murakami and T. Konishi, 1989 Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 271, 515-523), a model for the delta pH-delta phi regulation of the antiporter activation is proposed. 相似文献

Energetics of reserpine binding and occlusion by the chromaffin granule biogenic amine transporter 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The energetics of reserpine binding to the bovine adrenal biogenic amine transporter suggest that H+ ion translocation converts the transporter to a form which binds reserpine essentially irreversibly. Reserpine binding to bovine adrenal chromaffin granule membrane vesicles is accelerated by generation of a transmembrane pH difference (delta pH) (interior acid) or electrical potential (delta psi) (interior positive). Both components of the electrochemical H+ potential (delta mu H+) must be dissipated to block reserpine binding, and generation of either one stimulates the binding rate. Reserpine binding is less dependent than amine transport on the delta pH, suggesting that translocation of fewer H+ ions is required to expose the high-affinity site than are required for net transport. Bound reserpine dissociates very slowly, if at all, from the transporter. Binding is stable to 1% cholate, 1.5% Triton X-100, 1 M SCN-, and 8 M urea, but sodium dodecyl sulfate (0.035%) and high temperatures (100 degrees C) released bound reserpine, indicating that binding is noncovalent. The results raise the possibility that the transporter, by translocating one H+ ion outward down its concentration gradient, is converted to a form that can either transport a neutral substrate molecule inward or occlude reserpine in a dead-end complex. 相似文献

The sugar specificity mutants of the lactose permease containing Val177 or Val177/Asn319 were analyzed with regard to their ability to couple H+ and sugar co-transport. Both mutants were able to transport lactose downhill to a significant degree. The Val177 mutant was partially defective in the active accumulation of galactosides, whereas the Val177/Asn319 mutant was completely defective in the uphill accumulation of sugars. With regard to coupling, the Val177 mutant was shown to catalyze the uncoupled transport of H+ to a substantial degree. This led to a decrease in the H+ electrochemical gradient under aerobic conditions and also resulted in faster H+ uptake when a transient H+ electrochemical gradient was generated under anaerobic conditions. Interestingly, galactosides were shown to diminish the rate of uncoupled H+ transport in the Val177 strain. The Val177/Asn319 strain also catalyzed uncoupled H+ transport, but to a lesser degree than the single Val177 mutant. In addition, the Val177/Asn319 mutant was shown to transport galactosides with or without H+. The observed H+/lactose stoichiometry was 0.30 in the double mutant compared to 0.98 in the wild-type strain. When an H+ electrochemical gradient was generated across the membrane, the Val177/Asn319 mutant permease was shown to facilitate an extremely rapid net H+ leak if nonmetabolizable galactosides had been equilibrated across the membrane. The mechanism of this leak is consistent with a circular pathway involving H+/galactoside influx and uncoupled galactoside efflux. The magnitude of the H+ leak in the presence of nonmetabolizable galactosides was so great in the double mutant that low concentrations of certain galactosides (i.e. 0.5 mM thiodigalactoside) resulted in a complete inhibition of growth. These results are discussed with regard to the possibility that cation and sugar binding to the lactose permease may involve a direct physical coupling at a common recognition site. 相似文献

The importance of delta mu H+ for transport of K+ via K(+)-ionophore and H(+)-K(+)-pump was studied. It was shown that the operation of the pump was decelerated by oxidant ferrycyanide, whereas sulfhydryl reagent dithiothreitol (DTT) drastically accelerated ATP driven ion exchange. Introduction of protonophore CCCP into the medium completely blocked the pump operation. However, the addition of DTT after CCCP restored the high level activity of the pump. At the same time DTT was unable to restore K+ accumulation after CCCP in aerobically grown bacteria for which the K+ uptake was performed across the electrical field gradient. Thus it was established that delta mu H+ was necessary for ATP driven ionic systems as a regulator of the membrane redox state. 相似文献

Differences in Binding Properties of μ and δ Opioid Receptor Subtypes from Rat Brain: Kinetic Analysis and Effects of Ions and Nucleotides 总被引:5,自引:4,他引:1
Differences in binding properties of mu and delta opioid receptors were investigated using DAGO (Tyr-D-Ala-Gly-MePhe-Gly-ol) and DTLET (Tyr-D-Thr-Gly-Phe-Leu-Thr), which occur, respectively, as the most selective mu and delta radioligands available. At high concentration, each agonist is able to interact with its nonspecific sites. Competition experiments indicated that a two-site competitive model was adequate to explain the interactions of DAGO and DTLET with [3H]DTLET and [3H]DAGO binding sites, respectively. The weak cross-reactivity (congruent to 10%) of DTLET for mu sites was taken into account in these experiments. On the other hand, DAGO and DTLET exhibit differential binding kinetics. Thus, at 35 degrees C, the lifetime of DTLET within its receptor site is about 14 times longer than that of the mu agonist. Sodium and manganese ions decrease the maximal number of high affinity mu and delta sites, but the sensitivity of mu receptors is three times higher towards Na+ and 20-fold higher towards Mn2+ than that of delta receptors. GTP reduces similarly the mu and delta binding whereas only the DAGO binding was modified by the nonhydrolyzable analogue guanylylimidodiphosphate [GMP-P(NH)P]. However, in the presence of Na+ ions, GMP-P(NH)P inhibits the DTLET binding in a concentration-dependent manner. The effects of Na+ and GMP-P(NH)P could be explained by a sequential transformation of delta receptors to low-affinity states. This model predicts that Na+, by lowering the affinity of a fraction of sites, produces a decrease in the maximal number of high-affinity delta receptors and that GMP-P(NH)P enhances the Na+ effect. Moreover, the binding kinetic to this high-affinity state was also modified by Na+ and nucleotides. All of these data support the existence of two independent mu and delta binding sites, the properties of which are differentially regulated by these endogenous effectors. 相似文献

The interaction of Na and H ions with the extracellular and intracellular sites of the Na+/H+ exchanger of the osteosarcoma cell line UMR-106 was investigated. Na ions interact with a single, saturable extracellular transport site. H+ and amiloride appear to compete with Na+ for binding to this site. The apparent affinity for extracellular Na+ (Nao+) and amiloride was independent of intracellular H+ (Hi+), Nai+, or an outwardly directed H+ gradient. The interaction of H+ with the intracellular face of the exchanger had a sigmoidal characteristic with a Hill coefficient of approximately 2. The apparent affinity for Hi+ was independent of Nao+ between 25 and 140 mM. The apparent affinity for Hi+, but not the number of intracellular sites, increased with the increase in the outwardly directed H+ gradient across the membrane. Nai+/Ho+ exchange (reverse mode) is an electroneutral process with a Na+/H+ stoichiometry of 1. The dependence of Nai+/Ho+ exchange on Nai+ was sigmoidal, with a Hill coefficient of 2.16. Nai+ competes with Hi+ for binding to at least the transport site. The apparent affinity for Nai+ decreased with the increase in the outwardly directed H+ gradient. High Ho+ inhibited exchange activity in the reverse mode. We conclude that intracellular Na+ and H+ can activate the exchanger. The exchanger has two separate and asymmetric extracellular and intracellular transport sites. The relative apparent affinities of the internal transport site for Na+ and H+ are determined by the direction and magnitude of the H+ gradient across the membrane. Kinetic characterization of the exchanger suggests that Na+/H+ exchange is compatible with a simultaneous transport model, although a ping-pong transport model could not be excluded. 相似文献

High affinity binding of amiloride analogs at an internal site in renal microvillus membrane vesicles. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Amiloride analogs with hydrophobic substitutions on the 5-amino nitrogen atom are relatively high affinity inhibitors of the plasma membrane Na(+)-H+ exchanger. We demonstrated that a high affinity-binding site for [3H]5-(N-methyl-N-isobutyl)amiloride ([3H]MIA) (Kd = 6.3 nM, Bmax = 1.2 pmol/mg of protein) is present in microvillus membrane vesicles but not in basolateral membrane vesicles isolated from rabbit renal cortex, in accord with the known membrane localization of the Na(+)-H+ exchanger in this tissue. The rank order potency for inhibition of microvillus membrane [3H]MIA binding by amiloride analogs was: MIA (I50 approximately 10 nM) greater than amiloride (I50 approximately 200 nM) greater than benzamil (I50 approximately 1200 nM). This correlated with a qualitatively similar rank order potency for inhibition of Na(+)-H+ exchange: MIA (I50 approximately 4 microM) greater than amiloride (I50 approximately 15 microM) greater than benzamil (I50 approximately 100 microM), but did not correlate with the rank order potency for inhibition of the organic cation-H+ exchanger in microvillus membrane vesicles: MIA approximately benzamil (I50 approximately 0.5 microM) greater than amiloride (I50 approximately 10 microM). However, tetraphenylammonium, an inhibitor of organic cation-H+ exchange, inhibited the rate of [3H]MIA binding without an effect on equilibrium [3H]MIA binding; the dissociation of bound [3H]MIA was inhibited by preloading the membrane vesicles with tetraphenylammonium. These findings indicated that high affinity [3H]MIA binding to renal microvillus membrane vesicles takes place at an internal site to which access is rate-limited by the tetraphenylammonium-sensitive organic cation transporter. Equilibrium [3H]MIA binding was inhibited by H+ but was unaffected by concentrations of Na+ or Li+ that saturate the external transport site of the Na(+)-H+ exchanger. Binding of MIA to its high affinity binding site had no effect on the rate of Na(+)-H+ exchange. This study suggests that the renal Na(+)-H+ exchanger has a high affinity internal binding site for amiloride analogs that is distinct from the external amiloride inhibitory site. 相似文献

The lactose transport protein (LacS) of Streptococcus thermophilus catalyzes the uptake of lactose in an exchange reaction with intracellularly formed galactose. The interactions between the substrate and the cytoplasmic and extracellular binding site of LacS have been characterized by assaying binding and transport of a range of sugars in proteoliposomes, in which the purified protein was reconstituted with a unidirectional orientation. Specificity for galactoside binding is given by the spatial configuration of the C-2, C-3, C-4, and C-6 hydroxyl groups of the galactose moiety. Except for a C-4 methoxy substitution, replacement of the hydroxyl groups for bulkier groups is not tolerated at these positions. Large hydrophobic or hydrophilic substitutions on the galactose C-1 alpha or beta position did not impair transport. In fact, the hydrophobic groups increased the binding affinity but decreased transport rates compared with galactose. Binding and transport characteristics of deoxygalactosides from either side of the membrane showed that the cytoplasmic and extracellular binding site interact differently with galactose. Compared with galactose, the IC(50) values for 2-deoxy- and 6-deoxygalactose at the cytoplasmic binding site were increased 150- and 20-fold, respectively, whereas they were the same at the extracellular binding site. From these and other experiments, we conclude that the binding sites and translocation pathway of LacS are spacious along the C-1 to C-4 axis of the galactose moiety and are restricted along the C-2 to C-6 axis. The differences in affinity at the cytoplasmic and extracellular binding site ensure that the transport via LacS is highly asymmetrical for the two opposing directions of translocation. 相似文献
