Stimulation of HCl secretion by gastric parietal cells requires the fusion of cytoplasmic H(+)-K(+)-ATPase-bearing tubulovesicles with the apical membrane. This insertion of membrane results in a dramatic increase in apical surface area through the formation of microvilli. To elucidate the elements that may stabilize the newly inserted H(+)-K(+)-ATPase within the apical membrane, we searched for specific cytoskeletal proteins associating with the gastric enzyme. We document by immunoblot analysis that ankyrin, spectrin, and actin copurify with H(+)-K(+)-ATPase microsomes prepared from gastric parietal cells. Coprecipitation of 125I-labeled native erythrocyte ankyrin with the H(+)-K(+)-ATPase from gastric microsomes using anti-H(+)-K(+)-ATPase antibodies suggests that ankyrin associates with the H(+)-K(+)-ATPase. Indirect immunofluorescence and confocal microscopy show that ankyrin and H(+)-K(+)-ATPase cosegregate within resting and secreting parietal cells. Taken together, these data suggest that the association of the gastric H(+)-K(+)-ATPase with spectrin and actin is mediated by ankyrin and that this interaction contributes to the maintenance of the polarized distribution of the enzyme to the apical domain of gastric parietal cells during acid secretion.

This study investigates ischemia-induced degradation of the spectrin-based cytoskeleton in rat brain, heart, and kidney. Spectrin, in conjunction with ankyrin, structurally supports the plasma membrane and sequesters integral membrane proteins. After 60 and 120 min of ischemia, brain tissue displayed both spectrin and ankyrin breakdown. The spectrin fragmentation pattern is similar to previously reported ischemia-induced calpain I proteolysis of spectrin in N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor-containing neurons. Ischemic heart tissue displayed no spectrin or ankyrin degradation. Ischemic renal tissue showed minimal breakdown of spectrin but a major loss of ankyrin (25%/30 min of ischemia) that was essentially complete after 120 min of ischemia. Interestingly, this profound loss of ankyrin in the intact ischemic kidney was not mimicked in three renal cell lines (MDCK, LLC-PK1, and JTC cell lines) exposed to chemical anoxia. Immunocytochemistry showed ankyrin was concentrated in thick ascending limb (cTAL) cells and, although delayed by 30 min, was lost at the same rate as measured by immunoblot analysis. Spectrin and Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, which complex with ankyrin, were essentially unaffected by ischemia. Ankyrin degradation in cTAL cells correlated with the loss of basal infolding organization. In conclusion, the spectrin-based cytoskeleton is differentially targeted by ischemia-induced degradative processes in different in vivo tissues.

Ankyrin is an important key protein transferring the signal between the inside and outside of eukaryotic cells, because of its ability to bind both to ionic channels of the plasma membranes and to cytoskeletal proteins. In this study, we investigated new ankyrin binding proteins in rat cerebral membrane. Five main proteins in the extract of the demyelinated membranes were bound to erythrocyte ankyrin as examined by affinity chromatography. One of the proteins had a molecular weight of 97 kD that was almost identical with that of the alpha-subunit of Na+, K(+)-ATPase. 125I-labeled erythrocyte ankyrin was bound to the alpha-subunit of cerebral Na+, K(+)-ATPase, which contains both alpha and alpha(+) subunits. The binding experiment also showed that 70% of the total erythrocyte ankyrin bound to cerebral Na+, K(+)-ATPase. On the other hand, erythrocyte ankyrin binds less to Na+, K(+)-ATPase prepared from rat brain stem axolemma which contained only alpha(+) subunit. These results suggest that erythrocyte ankyrin may bind with high affinity to a cerebral Na+, K(+)-ATPase isoform with alpha subunit, but with much lower affinity to axonal Na+, K(+)-ATPase containing alpha(+) subunit.

In simple epithelia, the distribution of ion transporting proteins between the apical or basal-lateral domains of the plasma membrane is important for determining directions of vectorial ion transport across the epithelium. In the choroid plexus, Na+,K(+)-ATPase is localized to the apical plasma membrane domain where it regulates sodium secretion and production of cerebrospinal fluid; in contrast, Na+,K(+)-ATPase is localized to the basal-lateral membrane of cells in the kidney nephron where it regulates ion and solute reabsorption. The mechanisms involved in restricting Na+,K(+)-ATPase distribution to different membrane domains in these simple epithelia are poorly understood. Previous studies have indicated a role for E-cadherin mediated cell-cell adhesion and membrane-cytoskeleton (ankyrin and fodrin) assembly in regulating Na+,K(+)-ATPase distribution in absorptive kidney epithelial cells. Confocal immunofluorescence microscopy reveals that in chicken and rat choroid plexus epithelium, fodrin, and ankyrin colocalize with Na+,K(+)-ATPase at the apical plasma membrane, but fodrin, ankyrin, and adducin also localize at the lateral plasma membrane where Na+,K(+)-ATPase is absent. Biochemical analysis shows that fodrin, ankyrin, and Na+,K(+)-ATPase are relatively resistant to extraction from cells in buffers containing Triton X-100. The fractions of Na+,K(+)-ATPase, fodrin, and ankyrin that are extracted from cells cosediment in sucrose gradients at approximately 10.5 S. Further separation of the 10.5 S peak of proteins by electrophoresis in nondenaturing polyacrylamide gels revealed that fodrin, ankyrin, and Na+,K(+)-ATPase comigrate, indicating that these proteins are in a high molecular weight complex similar to that found previously in kidney epithelial cells. In contrast, the anion exchanger (AE2), a marker protein of the basal-lateral plasma membrane in the choroid plexus, did not cosediment in sucrose gradients or comigrate in nondenaturing polyacrylamide gels with the complex of Na+,K(+)-ATPase, ankyrin, and fodrin. Ca(++)-dependent cell adhesion molecules (cadherins) were detected at lateral membranes of the choroid plexus epithelium and colocalized with a distinct fraction of ankyrin, fodrin, and adducin. Cadherins did not colocalize with Na+,K(+)-ATPase and were absent from the apical membrane. The fraction of cadherins that was extracted with buffers containing Triton X-100 cosedimented with ankyrin and fodrin in sucrose gradients and comigrated in nondenaturing gels with ankyrin and fodrin in a high molecular weight complex. Since a previous study showed that E-cadherin is an instructive inducer of Na+,K(+)-ATPase distribution, we examined protein distributions in fibroblasts transfected with B-cadherin, a prominent cadherin expressed in the choroid plexus epithelium.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Cytoskeleton membrane associations are important for a variety of cellular functions. The anion exchanger of erythrocytes (AE1) and Na+,K(+)-ATPase of polarized epithelial cells provide well studied examples of how integral membrane proteins are anchored via the linker molecule ankyrin to the spectrin-based membrane cytoskeleton. In the present study we have generated several recombinant fragments of the large (third) cytoplasmic domain (CD3) of Na+,K(+)-ATPase to define binding sites of ankyrin on CD3 at a molecular level. We provide evidence that a cluster of four amino acids, ALLK, is essential for binding of ankyrin to both recombinant CD3 and to native Na+,K(+)-ATPase. Once bound, conformational changes might uncover further binding sites for ankyrin on Na+,K(+)-ATPase. A motif related to the ALLK cluster is also present in the cytoplasmic domain of AE1 where this sequence (ALLLK) turned out to be also important for ankyrin binding. These motifs are highly conserved during evolution of both Na+,K(+)-ATPase and AE1, further underlining their potential role in cytoskeleton to membrane linkage.

We evaluated the postischemic renal injury in 22 patients undergoing renal transplantation. Renal tissue obtained 45 to 60 minutes after reperfusion of the allograft was stained with specific antibodies against the delta subunit of Na+/K(+)-ATPase, fodrin and ankyrin. The distribution of each cytoskeletal protein was analyzed by laser confocal microscopy. Subsequent allograft function was assessed on two occasions, 1 to 3 and 36 hours post-reperfusion, respectively. Recipients were divided into two groups: those who achieved a normal GFR on post-transplant day 3 (group 1, N = 12) and those with persistent hypofiltration (group 2, N = 10). Patients of both groups exhibited impaired sodium reabsorption and isosthenuria one to three hours postoperatively, but these abnormalities persisted on day 3 only in group 2 subjects with persistent hypofiltration. Abnormalities of Na+/K(+)-ATPase, ankyrin and fodrin were confined to proximal tubule cells and were marked only in the subjects of group 2. They consisted of redistribution of each cytoskeletal protein from the basolateral membrane to the cytoplasm. We conclude that postischemic injury to a renal allograft results in a loss of polarity of proximal tubule cells. We propose that ensuing impairment of proximal sodium reabsorption could activate tubuloglomerular feedback, thereby contributing to the protracted hypofiltration that characterizes this form of postischemic, acute renal failure.

Ionic homeostasis in vertebrates is maintained by epithelial cells that line kidney nephrons. Transport of ions and solutes is coupled to Na+ reabsorption from the ultrafiltrate and requires specific subcellular distribution and activity of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase along the nephron. Studies using cell culture models of renal epithelia indicate that the subcellular distribution of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase is regulated by interactions with the submembrane cytoskeleton and E-cadherin-mediated adherens junctions. We have now examined the relevance of these in vitro observations to the subcellular organization of these proteins in different nephron segments of the adult mouse kidney using immunofluorescence microscopy. Our results demonstrate that segmental and subcellular distributions of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase and the membrane-cytoskeletal proteins, ankyrin and fodrin, vary in parallel along the nephron and do not parallel variations in expression of the tight junction protein ZO-1 or E-cadherin. These data indicate that a mechanism for restricting Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase subcellular distributions through interactions with the membrane cytoskeleton is likely to be relevant in vivo.

The retinal pigment epithelium was used to study the relationship between the cortical cytoskeleton and two plasma membrane proteins that associate with it. These proteins were the Na+,K(+)-ATPase, an ion pump, and the 5A11 antigen, a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily of receptor proteins. The cytoskeleton was marked by two of its constituents, alpha-spectrin and ankyrin. Ankyrin links the Na+,K(+)-ATPase to spectrin in many cells. The RPE is of interest, because unlike most epithelia it distributes the Na+,K(+)-ATPase to the apical membrane. The development of polarity was studied during chick embryogenesis. On embryonic day 6 (E6), each of these proteins was observed in the apical and lateral plasma membranes. As development proceeded, only the Na+,K(+)-ATPase was removed from the lateral membranes. Beginning on E12, ankyrin, spectrin and 5A11 appeared together in patches along the basal plasma membrane. By E16, these patches coalesced into a uniform distribution along the basal membrane. At the apical pole, alpha-spectrin appeared near the base of the microvilli, but was undetected in the microvilli themselves. This distribution resembled the distribution of alpha-spectrin in the intestine and proximal kidney tubule. By contrast, a pool of ankyrin and 5A11 and nearly all the Na+,K(+)-ATPase appeared in the microvilli. Despite its segregation from alpha-spectrin, the Na+,K(+)-ATPase appeared to associate with a macromolecular complex, as judged by extraction with Triton X-100. Changes in spectrin distribution could not be related to changes in isoform expression, as only one isoform of beta-spectrin was detected by co-immunoprecipitation with alpha-spectrin. By contrast, multiple ankyrin-like peptides could be identified by immunoblotting. These data illustrate some of the unique properties of RPE microvilli. These properties prevent the Na+,K(+)-ATPase from complexing with the alpha-spectrin-based cytoskeleton by sequestering the enzyme into the compartment where its activity is required.

Ankyrin links the fodrin-based cytoskeleton to membrane proteins such as Na+/K(+)-ATPase, thereby maintaining cellular integrity. Immunoblotting by antibody raised against erythrocyte ankyrin demonstrated the proteolysis of ankyrin, which was highly correlated with postmortem interval (0-24 h). Proteolysis in the postmortem brain generated the 160-kDa fragment with an identical size as the fragment formed after in vitro proteolysis by calpain. Although microM Ca2+ induced the proteolysis in the homogenate, the presence of mu-calpain was not demonstrated by immunoblotting using the antibody that reacts with large subunits both of mu- and m-calpains. Na+/K(+)-ATPase was also proteolyzed in the postmortem brain.

There is extensive reprogramming of the ATPase regulators of the 26S proteasome before the programmed elimination of the abdominal intersegmental muscles (ISM) after eclosion in Manduca sexta [1]. This extensive ATPase reprogramming only occurs in ISM which are destined to die and not in flight muscle (FM). The MS73 ATPase also increases in the proleg retractor muscles which die at a developmentally different stage to ISM. The non-ATPase regulator S5a shows a similar increase to the ATPase regulators. We have cloned the Manduca SUG2 ATPase and shown that this ATPase is a component of the 26S proteasome. This ATPase shows a similar increase in concentration to the other ATPases in 26S proteasomes before muscle death. The SUG2 ATPase is also associated with other smaller complexes besides the 26S proteasome which act as activators of the 26S proteasome. Finally, in a yeast two-hybrid genetic screen we have identified a protein in human brain which interacts with the MS73 ATPase (and human S6). The interacting protein contains 6 ankyrin repeats and is co-immunoprecipitated with anti-MS73 antiserum after in vitro transcription/translation. The ankyrin repeat protein may interact with the MS73 ATPase as part of the substrate recognition process by the 26S proteasome. Many proteins degraded by the 26S proteasome contain ankyrin repeats, e.g. IkB and some cyclins: binding through ankyrin repeats to an ATPase regulator may complement protein ubiquitination and S5a binding as recognition signals by the 26S proteasome.
