Conformational changes of the human Na(+)/glucose cotransporter (hSGLT1) were studied using voltage-jump methods. The cotransporter was expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes, and SGLT1 charge movements were measured in the micro- to millisecond time scale using the cut-open oocyte preparation and in the millisecond to second time scale using the two-electrode voltage clamp method. Simultaneous charge and fluorescence changes were studied using tetramethylrhodamine-6-maleimide-labeled hSGLT1 Q457C. In 100 mM external [Na(+)], depolarizing voltage steps evoked a charge movement that rose initially to a peak (with time constant tau = 0.17 ms) before decaying to steady state with two time constants (tau = 2-30 and 25-150 ms). The time to peak (0.9 ms) decreased with [Na(+)], and was not observed in 0 mM [Na(+)]. In absence of Na(+), charge movement decayed monotonically to steady state with three time constants (0.2, 2, and 150 ms). Charge movement was accompanied by fluorescence changes with similar time courses, indicating that global conformational changes monitored by charge movement are reflected by local environmental changes at or near Q457C. Our results indicate that the major voltage-dependent step of the Na(+)/glucose transport cycle is the return of the empty carrier from inward to outward facing conformations. Finally, we observed subtle differences between time constants for charge movement and for optical changes, suggesting that optical recordings can be used to monitor local conformational changes that underlie the global conformational changes of cotransporters. 相似文献

This study examines the conformations of the Na(+)/glucose cotransporter (SGLT1) during sugar transport using charge and fluorescence measurements on the human SGLT1 mutant G507C expressed in Xenopus oocytes. The mutant exhibited similar steady-state and presteady-state kinetics as wild-type SGLT1, and labeling of Cys507 by tetramethylrhodamine-6-maleimide had no effect on kinetics. Our strategy was to record changes in charge and fluorescence in response to rapid jumps in membrane potential in the presence and absence of sugar or the competitive inhibitor phlorizin. In Na(+) buffer, step jumps in membrane voltage elicited presteady-state currents (charge movements) that decay to the steady state with time constants tau(med) (3-20 ms, medium) and tau(slow) (15-70 ms, slow). Concurrently, SGLT1 rhodamine fluorescence intensity increased with depolarizing and decreased with hyperpolarizing voltages (DeltaF). The charge vs. voltage (Q-V) and fluorescence vs. voltage (DeltaF-V) relations (for medium and slow components) obeyed Boltzmann relations with similar parameters: zdelta (apparent valence of voltage sensor) approximately 1; and V(0.5) (midpoint voltage) between -15 and -40 mV. Sugar induced an inward current (Na(+)/glucose cotransport), and reduced maximal charge (Q(max)) and fluorescence (DeltaF(max)) with half-maximal concentrations (K(0.5)) of 1 mM. Increasing [alphaMDG](o) also shifted the V(0.5) for Q and DeltaF to more positive values, with K(0.5)'s approximately 1 mM. The major difference between Q and DeltaF was that at saturating [alphaMDG](o), the presteady-state current (and Q(max)) was totally abolished, whereas DeltaF(max) was only reduced 50%. Phlorizin reduced both Q(max) and DeltaF(max) (K(i) approximately 0.4 microM), with no changes in V(0.5)'s or relaxation time constants. Simulations using an eight-state kinetic model indicate that external sugar increases the occupancy probability of inward-facing conformations at the expense of outward-facing conformations. The simulations predict, and we have observed experimentally, that presteady-state currents are blocked by saturating sugar, but not the changes in fluorescence. Thus we have isolated an electroneutral conformational change that has not been previously described. This rate-limiting step at maximal inward Na(+)/sugar cotransport (saturating voltage and external Na(+) and sugar concentrations) is the slow release of Na(+) from the internal surface of SGLT1. The high affinity blocker phlorizin locks the cotransporter in an inactive conformation. 相似文献

The human Na(+)-glucose cotransporter (hSGLT1) has been shown to generate, in the absence of sugar, presteady-state currents in response to a change in potential, which could be fitted with single exponentials once the voltage had reached a new constant value. By the cut-open oocyte technique (voltage rising-speed approximately 1 mV/microsecond), phlorizin-sensitive transient currents could be detected with a higher time resolution during continuous intracellular perfusion. In the absence of sugar and internal Na+, and with 90 mM external Na+ concentration ([Na+]o), phlorizin-sensitive currents exhibited two relaxation time-constants: tau 1 increased from 2 to 10 ms when Vm decreased from +60 mV to -80 mV and remained at 10 ms for more negative Vm; tau 2 ranged from 0.4 to 0.8 ms in a weakly voltage-dependent manner. According to a previously proposed model, these two time constants could be accounted for by 1) Na+ crossing a fraction of the membrane electrical field to reach its binding site on the carrier and 2) conformational change of the free carrier. To test this hypothesis, the time constants were measured as [Na+]o was progressively reduced to 0 mM. At 30 and 10 mM external Na+, tau 1 reached the same plateau value of 10 ms but at more negative potentials (-120 and -160 mV, respectively). Contrary to the prediction of the model, two time constants continued to be detected in the bilateral absence of Na+ (at pH 8.0). Under these conditions, tau 1 continuously increased through the whole voltage range and did not reach the 10 ms level even when Vm had attained -200 mV while tau 2 remained in the range of 0.4-0.8 ms. These results indicate that 1) conformational change of the free carrier across the membrane must occur in more than one step and 2) Na+ binding/debinding is not responsible for either of the two observed exponential components of transient currents. By use of the simplest kinetic model accounting for the portion of the hSGLT1 transport cycle involving extracellular Na+ binding/debinding and the dual-step conformational change of the free carrier, tau 1 and tau 2 were fitted throughout the voltage range, and a few sets of parameters were found to reproduce the data satisfactorily. This study shows that 1) tau 1 and tau 2 correspond to two steps in the conformational change of the free carrier, 2) Na+ binding/debinding modulates the slow time constant (tau 1) and 3) a voltage-independent slow conformational change of the free carrier accounts for the observed plateau value of 10 ms. 相似文献

How Drugs Interact with Transporters: SGLT1 as a Model 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Drugs are transported by cotransporters with widely different turnover rates. We have examined the underlying mechanism using, as a model system, glucose and indican (indoxyl-beta-D: -glucopyranoside) transport by human Na(+)/glucose cotransporter (hSGLT1). Indican is transported by hSGLT1 at 10% of the rate for glucose but with a fivefold higher apparent affinity. We expressed wild-type hSGLT1 and mutant G507C in Xenopus oocytes and used electrical and optical methods to measure the kinetics of glucose (using nonmetabolized glucose analogue alpha-methyl-D: -glucopyranoside, alphaMDG) and indican transport, alone and together. Indican behaved as a competitive inhibitor of alphaMDG transport. To examine protein conformations, we recorded SGLT1 capacitive currents (charge movements) and fluorescence changes in response to step jumps in membrane voltage, in the presence and absence of indican and/or alphaMDG. In the absence of sugar, voltage jumps elicited capacitive SGLT currents that decayed to steady state with time constants (tau) of 3-20 ms. These transient currents were abolished in saturating alphaMDG but only slightly reduced (10%) in saturating indican. SGLT1 G507C rhodamine fluorescence intensity increased with depolarizing and decreased with hyperpolarizing voltages. Maximal fluorescence increased approximately 150% in saturating indican but decreased approximately 50% in saturating alphaMDG. Modeling indicated that the rate-limiting step for indican transport is sugar translocation, whereas for alphaMDG it is dissociation of Na(+) from the internal binding sites. The inhibitory effects of indican on alphaMDG transport are due to its higher affinity and a 100-fold lower translocation rate. Our results indicate that competition between substrates and drugs should be taken into consideration when targeting transporters as drug delivery systems. 相似文献

SGLT1 is a sodium/glucose cotransporter that moves two Na(+) ions with each glucose molecule per cycle. SGLT3 proteins belong to the same family and are described as glucose sensors rather than glucose transporters. Thus, human SGLT3 (hSGLT3) does not transport sugar, but extracellular glucose depolarizes the cell in which it is expressed. Mouse SGLT3b (mSGLT3b), although it transports sugar, has low apparent sugar affinity and partially uncoupled stoichiometry compared with SGLT1, suggesting that mSGLT3b is also a sugar sensor. The crystal structure of the Vibrio parahaemolyticus SGLT showed that residue Gln(428) interacts directly with the sugar. The corresponding amino acid in mammalian proteins, 457, is conserved in all SGLT1 proteins as glutamine. In SGLT3 proteins, glutamate is the most common residue at this position, although it is a glycine in mSGLT3b and a serine in rat SGLT3b. To test the contribution of this residue to the function of SGLT3 proteins, we constructed SGLT3b mutants that recapitulate residue 457 in SGLT1 and hSGLT3, glutamine and glutamate, respectively. The presence of glutamine at residue 457 increased the apparent Na(+) and sugar affinities, whereas glutamate decreased the apparent Na(+) affinity. Moreover, glutamate transported more cations per sugar molecule than the wild type protein. We propose a model where cations are released intracellularly without the release of sugar from an intermediate state. This model explains the uncoupled charge:sugar transport phenotype observed in wild type and G457E-mSGLT3b compared with SGLT1 and the sugar-activated cation transport without sugar transport that occurs in hSGLT3. 相似文献

We mutated residue 166, located in the putative Na(+) transport pathway between transmembrane segments 4 and 5 of human Na(+)/glucose cotransporter (hSGLT1), from alanine to cysteine (A166C). A166C was expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes, and electrophysiological methods were used to assay function. The affinity for Na(+) was unchanged compared to that of hSGLT1, whereas the sugar affinity was reduced and sugar specificity was altered. There was a reduction in the turnover rate of the transporter, and in contrast to that of hSGLT1, the turnover rate depended on the sugar molecule. Exposure of A166C to MTSEA and MTSET, but not MTSES, abolished sugar transport. Accessibility of A166C to alkylating reagents was independent of protein conformation, indicating that the residue is always accessible from the extracellular surface. Sugar and phlorizin did not protect the residue from being alkylated, suggesting that residue 166 is not located in the sugar pathway. MTSEA, MTSET, and MTSES all changed the pre-steady-state kinetics of A166C, independent of pH, and sugars altered these kinetics. The inability of MTSEA-labeled A166C to transport sugar was reversed (with no major change in Na(+) and sugar affinity) if the positive charge on MTSEA was neutralized by increasing the external pH to 9.0. These studies suggest that the residue at position 166 is involved in the interaction between the Na(+) and sugar transport pathways. 相似文献

The functional characteristics of the forward and reverse transport modes of the human Na(+)/glucose transporter (hSGLT1) were investigated using plasma membrane vesicles of E. coli expressing the recombinant transporter. Correctly and inverse-oriented vesicles were employed to measure the initial rates of methyl-alpha-D-glucose uptake, under zero-trans conditions, as a function of Na(+), sugar, and phlorizin concentrations and membrane potential. This approach enabled the analysis of the two faces of hSGLT1 in parallel, revealing the reversibility of Na(+)/sugar cotransport. While the key characteristics of secondary active sugar transport were maintained in both modes, namely, Na(+) and voltage dependence, the kinetic properties of the two sides indicated a functional asymmetry of the transporter. That is, the apparent affinity for sugar and driver cation Na(+) exhibited a difference of more than 1 order of magnitude between the two modes. Furthermore, the selectivity pattern of ligands and the interaction of the transporter with the competitive inhibitor phlorizin were different. Whereas the high-affinity substrates, D-glucose and D-galactose, inhibited uptake of radioactive sugar tracer at their physiological concentrations (10 mM) in the forward reaction, they were poor inhibitors even at high concentrations in the reverse transport mode. Taken together, these results confirm the successful employment of E. coli to express and characterize a human membrane protein (hSGLT1), elucidating the functional asymmetry of this cotransporter. 相似文献

Sodium current and intramembrane gating charge movement (Q) were monitored in voltage-clamped frog node of Ranvier after modification of all sodium channels by batrachotoxin (BTX). Sodium current activation followed a single-exponential time course, provided a delay was interposed between the onset of the step ON depolarization and that of the current change. The delay decreased with increased ON depolarization and, for a constant ON depolarization, increased with prehyperpolarization. ON charge movement followed a single-exponential time course with time constants tau Q,ON slightly larger than tau Na, ON. For pulses between -70 and -50 mV, tau Q,ON/tau Na,ON = 1.14 +/- 0.08. The OFF charge movement and OFF sodium current tails after a depolarizing pulse followed single-exponential time courses, with tau Q, OFF larger than tau Na, OFF. tau Q,OFF/tau Na,OFF increased with OFF voltage from 1 near -100 mV to 2 near -160 mV. At a set OFF potential (-120 mV), both tau Q,OFF and tau Na,OFF increased with ON pulse duration. The delay in INa activation and the effect of ON pulse duration on tau Q,OFF and tau Na,OFF are inconsistent with a simple two-state, single-transition model for the gating of batrachotoxin-modified sodium channels. 相似文献

Na(+)/glucose cotransport by SGLT1 is a tightly coupled process that is driven by the Na(+) electrochemical gradient across the plasma membrane. We have previously proposed that SGLT1 contains separate Na(+)- and glucose-binding domains, that A166 (in the Na(+) domain) is close to D454 (in the sugar domain), and that interactions between these residues influence sugar specificity and transport. We have now expressed the mutant D454C in Xenopus laevis oocytes and examined the role of charge on residue 454 by replacing the Asp with Cys or His, and by chemical mutation of D454C with alkylating reagents of different charge (MTSES(-), MTSET(+), MMTS(0), MTSHE(0), and iodoacetate(-)). Functional properties were examined by measuring sugar transport and cotransporter currents. In addition, D454C was labeled with fluorescent dyes and the fluorescence of the labeled transporter was recorded as a function of voltage and ligand concentration. The data shows that (1) aspartate 454 is critically important for the normal trafficking of the protein to the plasma membrane; (2) there were marked changes in the functional properties of D454C, i.e., a reduction in turnover number and a loss of voltage sensitivity, although there were no alterations in sugar selectivity or sugar and Na(+) affinity; (3) a negative charge on residue 454 increased Na(+) and sugar transport with a normal stoichiometry of 2 Na(+):1 sugar. A positive charge on residue 454, in contrast, uncoupled Na(+) and sugar transport, indicating the importance of the negative charge in the coordination of the cotransport mechanism. 相似文献

Positions 163, 166, and 173, within the putative external loop joining transmembrane segments IV and V of rabbit Na(+)/glucose cotransporter, form part of its Na(+) interaction and voltage-sensing domain. Since a Q170C mutation within this region exhibits anomalous behavior, its function was further investigated. We used Xenopus oocytes coinjected with mouse T-antigen to enhance Q170C expression, and the two-microelectrode voltage-clamp technique. For Q170C, alpha-methyl D-glucopyranoside, phloridzin, and Na(+) affinity values are equivalent to those of wild-type; but turnover is reduced approximately 50%. Decreased [Na(+)] reduces Q170C, but not wild-type, charge transfer. Q170C presteady-state currents exhibit three time constants, tau, identical to wild-type. MTSES decreases maximal alpha-methyl D-glucopyranoside-induced currents by approximately 64% and Na(+) leak by approximately 55%; phloridzin and Na(+) affinity are unchanged. MTSES also reduces charge transfer (dithiothreitol-reversible) and Q170C turnover by approximately 60-70%. MTSEA and MTSET protect against MTSES, but neither affect Q170C function. MTSES has no obvious effect on the tau-values. Q170A behaves the same as Q170C. The mutation Q170E affects voltage sensitivity and reduces turnover, but also appears to influence Na(+) interaction. We conclude that 1), glutamine 170 lies in the Na(+) pathway in rabbit Na(+)/glucose cotransporter and 2), altered polarity and charge at position 170 affect a cotransporter conformational state and transition, which is rate-limiting, but probably not associated with empty carrier reorientation. 相似文献

Intramembrane charge movement was recorded in guinea pig ventricular myocytes at 19-22 degrees C using the whole-cell patch clamp technique. From a holding potential of -110 mV, the dependence of intramembrane charge moved on test voltage (Q(V)) followed the sum of two Boltzmann components. One component had a transition voltage (V) of -48 mV and a total charge (Qmax) of congruent to 3 nC/microF. The other had a V of -18 mV and a Qmax of 11 nC/microF. Ba2+ currents through Ca channels began to activate at -45 mV and peaked at congruent to -15 mV. Na+ current peaked at -35 to -30 mV. Availability of charge (in pulses from -70 to +10 mV) depended on the voltage of conditioning depolarizations as two Boltzmann terms plus a constant. One term had a V of -88 mV and a Qmax of 2.5 nC/microF; the other had a V of -29 mV and a Qmax of 6.3 nC/microF. From the Q(V) dependence, the voltage dependence of the ionic currents, and the voltage dependence of the availability of charge, the low voltage term of Q(V) and availability was identified as Na gating charge, at a total of 3.5 nC/microF. The remainder, 11 nC/microF, was attributed to Ca channels. After pulses to -40 mV and above, the OFF charge movement had a slow exponentially decaying component. Its time constant had a bell-shaped dependence on OFF voltage peaking at 11 ms near -100 mV. Conditioning depolarizations above -40 mV increased the slow component exponentially with the conditioning duration (tau approximately equal to 480 ms). Its magnitude was reduced as the separation between conditioning and test pulses increased (tau approximately equal to 160 ms). The voltage distribution of the slow component of charge was measured after long (5 s) depolarizations. Its V was -100 mV, a shift of -80 mV from the value in normally polarized cells. This voltage was the same at which the time constant of the slow component peaked. Qmax and the steepness of the voltage distribution were unchanged by depolarization. This indicates that the same molecules that produce the charge movement in normally polarized cells also produce the slow component in depolarized cells. 100 microns D600 increased by 77% the slow charge movement after a 500-ms conditioning pulse. These results demonstrate two classes of charge movement associated with L-type Ca channels, with kinetics and voltage dependence similar to charge 1 and charge 2 of skeletal muscle.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

To investigate effects of pH on the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase, we used the Xenopus oocytes to measure transient charge movements in the absence of extracellular K(+), and steady-state currents mediated by the pump as well as ATPase activity. The activity of purified Na(+), K(+)-ATPase strongly depends on pH, which has been attributed to protonation of intracellular sites. The steady-state current reflects pump activity, the transient charge movement voltage-dependent interaction of external Na(+) ions with the pump molecule and/or conformational changes during Na(+)/Na(+) exchange. The steady-state current exhibits a characteristic voltage dependence with maximum at about 0 mV at low external K(+) (< or =2 mM) and with 50 Na(+). This dependency is not significantly affected by changes in external pH in the range from pH 9 to pH 6. Only below pH 6, the voltage dependence of pump current becomes less steep, and may be attributed to a pH-dependent inhibition of the forward pump cycle by external Na(+). External stimulation of the pump by K(+) in the absence of Na(+) can be described by a voltage-dependent K(m) value with an apparent valency z(K). At higher external pH the z(K) value is reduced. The transient current signal in the absence of external K(+) can be described by the sum of three exponentials with voltage-dependent time constants of about 50 ms, 700 micros and less than 100 micros during pulses to 0 mV. The charge distribution was calculated by integration of the transient current signals. The slowest component and the associated charge distributions do not significantly depend on external pH changes. The intermediate component of the transients is represented by a voltage-dependent rate constant which shows a minimum at about -120 mV and increases with decreasing pH. Nevertheless, the contribution to the charge movement is not altered by pH changes due to a simultaneous increase of the amplitude of this component. We conclude that reduction of external pH counteracts external K(+) and Na(+) binding. 相似文献

The Na(+)-glucose cotransporter hSGLT1 is a member of a class of membrane proteins that harness Na(+) electrochemical gradients to drive uphill solute transport. Although hSGLT1 belongs to one gene family (SLC5), recent structural studies of bacterial Na(+) cotransporters have shown that Na(+) transporters in different gene families have the same structural fold. We have constructed homology models of hSGLT1 in two conformations, the inward-facing occluded (based on vSGLT) and the outward open conformations (based on Mhp1), mutated in turn each of the conserved gates and ligand binding residues, expressed the SGLT1 mutants in Xenopus oocytes, and determined the functional consequences using biophysical and biochemical assays. The results establish that mutating the ligand binding residues produces profound changes in the ligand affinity (the half-saturation concentration, K(0.5)); e.g., mutating sugar binding residues increases the glucose K(0.5) by up to three orders of magnitude. Mutation of the external gate residues increases the Na(+) to sugar transport stoichiometry, demonstrating that these residues are critical for efficient cotransport. The changes in phlorizin inhibition constant (K(i)) are proportional to the changes in sugar K(0.5), except in the case of F101C, where phlorizin K(i) increases by orders of magnitude without a change in glucose K(0.5). We conclude that glucose and phlorizin occupy the same binding site and that F101 is involved in binding to the phloretin group of the inhibitor. Substituted-cysteine accessibility methods show that the cysteine residues at the position of the gates and sugar binding site are largely accessible only to external hydrophilic methanethiosulfonate reagents in the presence of external Na(+), demonstrating that the external sugar (and phlorizin) binding vestibule is opened by the presence of external Na(+) and closes after the binding of sugar and phlorizin. Overall, the present results provide a bridge between kinetics and structural studies of cotransporters. 相似文献

The human Na(+)/D-glucose cotransporter 2 (hSGLT2) is believed to be responsible for the bulk of glucose reabsorption in the kidney proximal convoluted tubule. Since blocking reabsorption increases urinary glucose excretion, hSGLT2 has become a novel drug target for Type 2 diabetes treatment. Glucose transport by hSGLT2 was studied at 37°C in human embryonic kidney 293T cells using whole cell patch-clamp electrophysiology. We compared hSGLT2 with hSGLT1, the transporter in the straight proximal tubule (S3 segment). hSGLT2 transports with surprisingly similar glucose affinity and lower concentrative power than hSGLT1: Na(+)/D-glucose cotransport by hSGLT2 was electrogenic with apparent glucose and Na(+) affinities of 5 and 25 mM, and a Na(+):glucose coupling ratio of 1; hSGLT1 affinities were 2 and 70 mM and coupling ratio of 2. Both proteins showed voltage-dependent steady-state transport; however, unlike hSGLT1, hSGLT2 did not exhibit detectable pre-steady-state currents in response to rapid jumps in membrane voltage. D-Galactose was transported by both proteins, but with very low affinity by hSGLT2 (≥100 vs. 6 mM). β-D-Glucopyranosides were either substrates or blockers. Phlorizin exhibited higher affinity with hSGLT2 (K(i) 11 vs. 140 nM) and a lower Off-rate (0.03 vs. 0.2 s?1) compared with hSGLT1. These studies indicate that, in the early proximal tubule, hSGLT2 works at 50% capacity and becomes saturated only when glucose is ≥35 mM. Furthermore, results on hSGLT1 suggest it may play a significant role in the reabsorption of filtered glucose in the late proximal tubule. Our electrophysiological study provides groundwork for a molecular understanding of how hSGLT inhibitors affect renal glucose reabsorption. 相似文献

Properties of the cytoplasmic binding sites of the rabbit Na(+)/glucose cotransporter, SGLT1, expressed in Xenopus oocytes were investigated using the giant excised patch clamp technique. Voltage and substrate dependence of the outward cotransport were studied using alpha-methyl D-glucopyranoside (alphaMDG) as a substrate. The apparent affinity for alphaMDG depends on the cytoplasmic Na(+) concentration and voltage. At 0 mV the K(M) for alphaMDG is 7 mM at 110 mM Na(+) and 31 mM at 10 mM Na(+). The apparent affinity for alphaMDG and Na(+) is voltage dependent and increases at positive potentials. At 0 mV holding potential the outward current is half-maximal at about 70 mM. The results show that SGLT1 can mediate sugar transport out of the cell under appropriate concentration and voltage conditions, but under physiological conditions this transport is highly improbable due to the low affinity for sugar. 相似文献

The kinetics of a type IIb Na(+)-coupled inorganic phosphate (Pi) cotransporter (NaPi-IIb) cloned from mouse small intestine were studied using the two-electrode voltage clamp applied to Xenopus oocytes. In the steady state, mouse NaPi-IIb showed a curvilinear I-V relationship, with rate-limiting behavior only for depolarizing potentials. The Pi dose dependence was Michaelian, with an apparent affinity constant for Pi (Km(pi)) of 10 +/- 1 microM: at -60 mV. Unlike for rat NaPi-IIa, (Km(pi)) increased with membrane hyperpolarization, as reported for human NaPi-IIa, flounder NaPi-IIb and zebrafish NaPi-IIb2. The apparent affinity constant for Na(+) (Km(na)) was 23 +/- 1 mM: at -60 mV, and the Na(+) activation was cooperative with a Hill coefficient of approximately 2. Pre-steady-state currents were documented in the absence of Pi and showed a strong dependence on external Na(+). The hyperpolarizing shift of the charge distribution midpoint potential was 65 mV/log[Na]. Approximately half the moveable charge was attributable to the empty carrier. A comparison of the voltage dependence of steady-state Pi-induced current and pre-steady-state charge movement indicated that for -120 mV 相似文献

We have investigated the functional role of Cl(-) in the human Na(+)/Cl(-)/gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and Na(+)/glucose cotransporters (GAT1 and SGLT1, respectively) expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes. Substrate-evoked steady-state inward currents were examined in the presence and absence of external Cl(-). Replacement of Cl(-) by gluconate or 2-(N-morpholino)ethanesulfonic acid decreased the apparent affinity of GAT1 and SGLT1 for Na(+) and the organic substrate. In the absence of substrate, GAT1 and SGLT1 exhibited charge movements that manifested as pre-steady-state current transients. Removal of Cl(-) shifted the voltage dependence of charge movements to more negative potentials, with apparent affinity constants (K(0.5)) for Cl(-) of 21 and 115 mm for SGLT1 and GAT1, respectively. The maximum charge moved and the apparent valence were not altered. GAT1 stoichiometry was determined by measuring GABA-evoked currents and the unidirectional influx of (36)Cl(-), (22)Na(+), or [(3)H]GABA. Uptake of each GABA molecule was accompanied by inward movement of 2 positive charges, which was entirely accounted for by the influx of Na(+) in the presence or absence of Cl(-). Thus, the GAT1 stoichiometry was 2Na(+):1GABA. However, Cl(-) was transported by GAT1 because the inward movement of 2 positive charges was accompanied by the influx of one Cl(-) ion, suggesting unidirectional influx of 2Na(+):1Cl(-):1GABA per transport cycle. Activation of forward Na(+)/Cl(-)/GABA transport evoked (36)Cl(-) efflux and was blocked by the inhibitor SKF 89976A. These data suggest a Cl(-)/Cl(-) exchange mechanism during the GAT1 transport cycle. In contrast, Cl(-) was not transported by SGLT1. Thus, in both GAT1 and SGLT1, Cl(-) modulates the kinetics of cotransport by altering Na(+) affinity, but does not contribute to net charge transported per transport cycle. We conclude that Cl(-) dependence per se is not a useful criterion to classify Na(+) cotransporters. 相似文献

We previously reported that the human Na(+)/nucleoside transporter pyrimidine-preferring 1 (hCNT1) is electrogenic and transports gemcitabine and 5'-deoxy-5-fluorouridine, a precursor of the active drug 5-fluorouracil. Nevertheless, a complete electrophysiological characterization of the basic properties of hCNT1-mediated translocation has not been performed yet, and the exact role of adenosine in hCNT1 function has not been addressed either. In the present work we have used the two-electrode voltage clamp technique to investigate hCNT1 transport mechanism and study the kinetic properties of adenosine as an inhibitor of hCNT1. We show that hCNT1 exhibits presteady-state currents that disappear upon the addition of adenosine or uridine. Adenosine, a purine nucleoside described as a substrate of the pyrimidine-preferring transporters, is not a substrate of hCNT1 but a high affinity blocker able to inhibit uridine-induced inward currents, the Na(+)-leak currents, and the presteady-state currents, with a K(i) of 6.5 microM. The kinetic parameters for uridine, gemcitabine, and 5'-deoxy-5-fluorouridine were studied as a function of membrane potential; at -50 mV, K(0.5) was 37, 18, and 245 microM, respectively, and remained voltage-independent. I(max) for gemcitabine was voltage-independent and accounts for approximately 40% that for uridine at -50 mV. Maximal current for 5'-DFUR was voltage-dependent and was approximately 150% that for uridine at all membrane potentials. K(0.5)(Na(+)) for Na(+) was voltage-independent at hyperpolarized membrane potentials (1.2 mM at -50 mV), whereas I(max)(Na(+)) was voltage-dependent, increasing 2-fold from -50 to -150 mV. Direct measurements of (3)H-nucleoside or (22)Na fluxes with the charge-associated revealed a ratio of two positive inward charges per nucleoside and one Na(+) per positive inward charge, suggesting a stoichiometry of two Na(+)/nucleoside. 相似文献

The rat gamma-aminobutyric acid transporter GAT1 expressed in Xenopus oocytes was labeled at Cys74, and at one or more other sites, by tetramethylrhodamine-5-maleimide, without significantly altering GAT1 function. Voltage-jump relaxation analysis showed that fluorescence increased slightly and monotonically with hyperpolarization; the fluorescence at -140 mV was approximately 0. 8% greater than at +60 mV. The time course of the fluorescence relaxations was mostly described by a single exponential with voltage-dependent but history-independent time constants ranging from approximately 20 ms at +60 mV to approximately 150 ms at -140 mV. The fluorescence did not saturate at the most negative potentials tested, and the midpoint of the fluorescence-voltage relation was at least 50 mV more negative than the midpoint of the charge-voltage relation previously identified with Na(+) binding to GAT1. The presence of gamma-aminobutyric acid did not noticeably affect the fluorescence waveforms. The fluorescence signal depended on Na(+) concentration with a Hill coefficient approaching 2. Increasing Cl(-) concentration modestly increased and accelerated the fluorescence relaxations for hyperpolarizing jumps. The fluorescence change was blocked by the GAT1 inhibitor, NO-711. For the W68L mutant of GAT1, the fluorescence relaxations occurred only during jumps to high positive potentials, in agreement with previous suggestions that this mutant is trapped in one conformational state except at these potentials. These observations suggest that the fluorescence signals monitor a novel state of GAT1, intermediate between the E*(out) and E(out) states of Hilgemann, D.W., and C.-C. Lu (1999. J. Gen. Physiol. 114:459-476). Therefore, the study provides verification that conformational changes occur during GAT1 function. 相似文献

Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase (NKA) exports 3Na(+) and imports 2K(+) at the expense of the hydrolysis of 1ATP under physiological conditions. In the absence of K(+), it can mediate electroneutral Na(+)/Na(+) exchange. In the electroneutral Na(+)/Na(+) exchange mode, NKA produces a transient current containing fast, medium and slow components in response to a sudden voltage step. These three components of the transient current demonstrate the sequential release of Na(+) ions from three binding sites. Our data from oocytes provide further experimental support for the existence of these components. Oligomycin is an NKA inhibitor that favors the 2Na(+)-occluded state without affecting the conformational state of the NKA. We studied the effects of oligomycin on both K(+)-activated currents and transient currents in wild-type Bufo NKA and a mutant form of Bufo NKA, NKA: G813A. Oligomycin blocked almost all of the K(+)-activated current, although the three components of the transient current showed different sensitivities to oligomycin. The oligomycin-inhibited charge movement measured using a P/4 protocol had a rate coefficient similar to the medium transient component. The fast component of the transient current elicited by a short voltage step also showed sensitivity to oligomycin. However, the slow component was not totally inhibited by oligomycin. Our results indicate that the second and third sodium ions might be released to the extracellular medium by a mechanism that is not shared by the first sodium ion. 相似文献
