Basic Concept 3 Disparate Mechanisms for Ion
Flux via Channels versus Transporters - The
Channel Story
  • Minimal energetic interaction between the
    transported ion and the channel protein
  • Ionic flux is limited by opening and closing of a
    single major gate
  • Gating is regulated by conformational changes
    extrinsic to the permeability barrier or pore

Gadsby (2004) Nature 427 795-796
Gating is not allosterically coupled to the
movement of ions through the pore of the open
channel
7
Basic Concept 3 Disparate Mechanisms for Ion
Flux via Channels versus Transporters - The
Transporter Story
  • There are strong and selective energetic
    interactions between the transported ion(s) and
    the transporter protein
  • Ionic flux is limited by the alternating opening
    and closing of two gates
  • Both gates can be simultaneously closed to
    produce trapping or occlusion of the transported
    ion(s) within the permeability barrier
  • Movement of each gate is regulated by
    conformational changes intrinsic to the
    permeability barrier

Characterization of transporters primarily
focuses on

11
Ion Transport Proteins as Channels versus
Carriers Not as different as we think
  • Concept Both channel-like activity and
    transporter-like activity can be accommodated
    within the basic structures of most transport
    proteins
  • Model Example The induction of channel activity
    in the Na,K-ATPase pump upon binding of
    palytoxin, a marine toxin, that stabilizes both
    gates of the Na pump in the open state

12
Ion Transport Proteins as Channels versus
Carriers Not as different as we think
Palytoxin Structure
Boron and Boulpaep (2002) Medical Physiology
Saunders
Hilgemann (2003) PNAS 100 386-388
  • Palytoxin is a lethal toxin from a marine
    coelenterate (Palythoa coral)
  • Palytoxin binding to the Na pump induces
    appearance of non-selective cation channel
    activity

13
Ion Transport Proteins as Channels versus
Carriers Not as different as we think
  • Model guinea pig ventricular myocytes
  • Outside-out membrane patch recording in symmetric
    NaCl
  • Palytoxin (PTX) induces Na channel activity
    independent of ATP
  • However, ATP still acts as a positive allosteric
    regulator

Artigas and Gadsby (2003) PNAS 100 501-505
14
Ion Transport Proteins as Channels versus
Carriers Not as different as we think
  • K acts as a negative allosteric regulator of
    PTX-induced Na pump-channels

Artigas and Gadsby (2003) PNAS 100 501-505
  • PTX stabilizes opening of both gates of the Na
    pump, i.e., no occluded state
  • Permeability/ conformation of the non-occluded
    pore remains allosterically sensitive to ATP
    and K

Ion Transport Proteins as Channels versus
Carriers Not as different as we think
  • ClC-family proteins comprise a large family of
    structurally related membrane proteins that
    function as Cl- channels in eukaryotic cells
  • The resolved crystal of a prokaryotic member -
    ClC-ec1 from E. coli - has provided the
    structural template BUT.

16
Interactions of Ion Transport Proteins with
Adapter Proteins No transporter is an island
Concept Many channels and transporters
physically associate with adapter proteins that
regulate the subcellular localization of the
transport protein and/or its direct interaction
within signal transduction complexes that include
receptors, 2nd-messenger effector enzymes, and
protein kinases Model Example The role of
NHERF-family adapter proteins in the localization
and acute regulation of Na-Phosphate
cotransporters within apical signaling complexes
of renal epithelial cells

Adapter Proteins No transporter is an island
18
Interactions of Ion Transport Proteins with
Adapter Proteins No transporter is an island
  • PDZ (PSD-95, discs large, ZO1) domains are
    protein-protein interaction sites found in a
    large number of adapter proteins
  • Such adapter proteins act to localize channels or
    transporters within large signaling complexes at
    the sub-membrane cytoskeleton
  • Examples include the PSD-95 (post-synaptic
    density) adapter that co-assembles
    neurotransmitter-gated ion channels with
    cytoskeletal elements, kinases, and small GTPases
    into signaling complexes at the neuronal synapses
  • NHERFs (Na/H Exchanger Regulatory Factors)
    comprise another family of PDZ-containing
    adapters expressed in many epithelia

19
Interactions of Ion Transport Proteins with
Adapter Proteins No transporter is an island
  • Structure of the related NHERF1 and NHERF2
  • ERM domains bind to cytoskeletal proteins while
    PDZ domains bind to various transport proteins
    and signaling proteins
  • Recent studies have shown that NHERFs can also
    bind the parathyroid hormone receptor (PTH-R) and
    the type 2 Na-Phosphate Cotransporter (NPT2)

Interactions of Ion Transport Proteins with
Adapter Proteins No transporter is an island
  • Phosphate (Pi) reaccumulation from glomerular
    filtrate reflects activity of apical NPT2 protein
    in proximal tubule cells
  • During phosphate excess, PTH acts to repress
    NPT2-mediated Pi reuptake
  • PTH induces rapid endocytosis of the apical NPT2
    pool by signaling mechanisms that involve both
    phospholipase C (PLC) and adenylyl cyclase (AC)
    pathways

21
Interactions of Ion Transport Proteins with
Adapter Proteins No transporter is an island
  • Opossum Kidney (OK) line cells exhibit normal
    PTH-induced repression of NPT2 -mediated Pi
    uptake
  • OKH cells (a subline of OK) exhibit weak NPT2
    response to PTH despite similar expression of
    NPT2
  • These effects are correlated with high NHERF1
    levels in OK cells and low NHERF1 levels in OKH
    cells
  • Transfection of NHERF1 into OKH cells restores
    PTH-induced repression of NPT2 activity

Interactions of Ion Transport Proteins with
Adapter Proteins No transporter is an island
  • In absence of PTH, NPT2 is apically expressed in
    both OKH cells and OKH transfected with NHERF1
    (OKH-N1)
  • PTH induces rapid NPT2 (aka Na-Pi-4)
    internalization in OKH-N1 cells but not OKH cells

Interactions of Ion Transport Proteins with
Adapter Proteins No transporter is an island
  • Knockout of NHERF1 in mice induces reduced
    steady-state levels of NPT2 in brush-border
    membranes from kidney but not reduction in total
    kidney NPT2 content
  • Proximal tubule cells from NHERF1 -/- mice show
    increased internal pools of NPT2 at steady-state
  • NHERF1 -/- mice exhibit exhibit significant
    phosphate wasting into urine despite normal serum
    Pi levels
  • Most NHERF1 -/- females die within 35 days post
    birth and show multiple bone fractures

Interactions of Ion Transport Proteins with Local
Lipids The bilayer as more than a low
dielectric permeability barrier
Concept The function of many channels and
transporters is directly modulated by the
specific binding of phosphatidylinositol
4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) this facilitates rapid
modulation of transport protein activity by
highly localized changes in PIP2 synthesis or
degradation Model Example The
hypersensitization of nociceptive vanillanoid
receptor (VR1) channel activity by inflammatory
mediators that activate phospholipase C
(PLC)-dependent PIP2 breakdown
27
Interactions of Ion Transport Proteins with Local
Lipids The bilayer as more than a low
dielectric permeability barrier
PIP2 can positively or negatively modulate
activity of a wide range of ion channels and ion
transporters
These effects usually reflect direct binding of
PIP2 to specific domains of the transport
proteins with consequent allosteric modulation

29
Interactions of Ion Transport Proteins with Local
Lipids The bilayer as more than a low
dielectric permeability barrier
  • Vanillanoid receptors are non-selective cation
    channels of sensory nerve endings that are gated
    by diverse nociceptive stimuli produced at
    damaged tissue
  • The major physiological stimuli are acidic pH
    and increased temperature
  • Sensitivity of VR1 to these stimuli can be
    greatly enhanced by diverse hydrophobic ligands,
    e.g. capsaicins from peppers

Interactions of Ion Transport Proteins with Local
Lipids The bilayer as more than a low
dielectric permeability barrier
  • Model VR1 channels heterologously expressed in
    HEK293 cells
  • VR1 channels gated by threshold levels of primary
    stimuli (acid or capsaicin)
  • Activation of native bradykinin receptors
    (PLC-coupled) greatly potentiates gating by
    primary stimuli

Chao, and Julius (2001) Nature 411 957-962
31
Interactions of Ion Transport Proteins with Local
Lipids The bilayer as more than a low
dielectric permeability barrier
  • VR1 channels belong to TRP superfamily
  • VR1 C-terminus contains sequences conserved in
    PIP2-interaction domains of other PIP2-sensitive
    channels, e.g. inward rectifier K channels

32
Interactions of Ion Transport Proteins with Local
Lipids The bilayer as more than a low

Mutation of this VR1 C-terminal domain increases
gating by primary nociceptive stimuli but reduces
potentiation of gating by PLC-activating
secondary stimuli

Interactions among Ion Transport Proteins and
Modulator Proteins Cell-specific context

Concept An ion transport protein can exhibit
tissue-specific differences in function that
reflect its direct association with modulator
proteins that are expressed in a tissue-specific
or stimulus-specific manner. Model Example

tissue-specific modulation of Na,K-ATPase pump
activity

  • FXYD proteins comprise a family of structurally
    related type-1 membrane proteins that are
    expressed in tissue-specific patterns
  • Includes previously identified, but poorly
    understood proteins, e.g., phospholemman (PLM) in
    heart and corticosteroid hormone-induced factor
    (CHIF) in kidney

Take-Home Lessons
  • Precise homeostasis of the major inorganic
    cations (Na, K, H) and anions (Cl-, PO43-,
    HCO3-) is fundamental to all cells
  • However, cell-specific expression of different
    membrane transport proteins and regulatory
    factors permits wide variations in the absolute
    rates of transmembrane flux of these ions
  • These cell-specific differences in ionic flux are
    exploited for tissue-specific differences in
    function such as solute flow (e.g.
    transepithelial movements of metabolites) or
    information transfer

40
Take-Home Lessons
  • These tissue-specific differences in ionic flux
    are regulated at multiple levels
  • via increased/ decreased expression of membrane
    transport protein genes
  • via changes in the steady-state trafficking of
    membrane transport protein to and from the plasma
    membrane
  • via direct post-translational modification (e.g.
    phosphorylation) of the membrane transport
    proteins
  • via direct association with tissue-specific
    adapter or modulator proteins
  • via the local lipid composition of the membrane
    bilayer
