Ankyrins are a multigene family of proteins that function as adapters between the cytoskeleton and trans-membrane proteins, such as ion channels. Previous studies have shown the linkage between ankyrin and ionic transport proteins such as Na+-K+ ATPase, voltage-dependent Na+ channels and Ca2+ channels. In the present study, we have investigated the subcellular distribution of ankyrin and its relationship to the Na+-Ca2+ exchange protein in immature and adult rabbit ventricular myocytes. Isolated single cardiomyocytes from neonatal, juvenile and adult rabbit hearts were examined by immunofluorescence labeling techniques, using antibodies against ankyrin and the Na+-Ca2+ exchanger. We found that in neonatal rabbit cardiac myocytes, ankyrin labeling was mainly present at the Z disk, whereas the Na+-Ca2+ exchanger was only present on the peripheral sarcolemma. At 2 weeks of age, ankyrin labeling was still predominantly observed at the level of the Z disks as well as in the partially developed T-tubules. In the adult cells, however, ankyrin and the Na+-Ca2+ exchanger seem to be co-localized within T-tubules and at the costamere region of the peripheral sarcolemma. Immunogold labeling studies at the higher resolution electron microscopic level using cyrosection tissues of rabbit heart at different ages confirm these findings. These results indicate that the distribution pattern of ankyrin and the Na+-Ca2+ exchanger changes with development in rabbit ventricular myocytes.

Spectrin isoforms are often segregated within specialized plasma membrane subdomains where they are thought to contribute to the development of cell surface polarity. It was previously shown that ankyrin and beta spectrin are recruited to sites of cell-cell contact in Drosophila S2 cells expressing the homophilic adhesion molecule neuroglian. Here, we show that neuroglian has no apparent effect on a second spectrin isoform (alpha beta H), which is constitutively associated with the plasma membrane in S2 cells. Another membrane marker, the Na,K-ATPase, codistributes with ankyrin and alpha beta spectrin at sites of neuroglian-mediated contact. The distributions of these markers in epithelial cells in vivo are consistent with the order of events observed in S2 cells. Neuroglian, ankyrin, alpha beta spectrin, and the Na,K-ATPase colocalize at the lateral domain of salivary gland cells. In contrast, alpha beta H spectrin is sorted to the apical domain of salivary gland and somatic follicle cells. Thus, the two spectrin isoforms respond independently to positional cues at the cell surface: in one case an apically sorted receptor and in the other case a locally activated cell-cell adhesion molecule. The results support a model in which the membrane skeleton behaves as a transducer of positional information within cells.

Spectrin (betaISigma*) and ankyrin (AnkG119) associate with Golgi membranes and the dynactin complex, but their role in vesicle trafficking remains uncertain. We find that the actin-binding domain and membrane-association domain 1 (MAD1) of betaI spectrin together form a constitutive Golgi targeting signal in transfected MDCK cells. Expression of this signal in transfected cells disrupts the endogenous Golgi spectrin skeleton and blocks transport of alpha- and beta-Na,K-ATPase and vesicular stomatitis virus-G protein from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) but does not disrupt the formation of Golgi stacks, the distribution of beta-COP, or the transport and surface display of E-cadherin. The Golgi spectrin skeleton is thus required for the transport of a subset of membrane proteins from the ER to the Golgi. We postulate that together with polyfunctional adapter proteins such as AnkG119, Golgi spectrin forms a docking complex that acts prior to the cis-Golgi, presumably with vesicular-tubular clusters (VTCs or ERGIC), to sequester specific membrane proteins into vesicles transiting between the ER and Golgi, and subsequently (probably involving other isoforms of spectrin and ankyrin) to mediate cargo transport within the Golgi and to other membrane compartments. We hypothesize that this vesicular spectrin-ankyrin adapter-protein trafficking (or tethering) system (SAATS) mediates the capture and transport of many membrane proteins and acts in conjunction with vesicle-targeting molecules to effect the efficient transport of cargo proteins.

In diverse cell types, ankyrin tethers a variety of ion transport and cell adhesion molecules to the spectrin-based membrane skeleton. In the whole kidney, epithelial ankyrin (Ank3) is the predominantly expressed ankyrin and is expressed as distinct spliceoforms. Antibodies against a portion of the Ank3 regulatory domain detected four major spliceoforms at 215, 200, 170, and 120 kDa. Immunoblotting of the renal cortex, which is 80% proximal tubule (PT), detected all four spliceoforms but showed significantly diminished Ank3(200/215). To determine the Ank3 spliceoforms present in the mouse PT cells, PT fragments were purified to 100% from the renal cortex. Isolation was performed by incubating cortical tubule segments with fluorescein and isolating the fluorescein-laden PT fragments or fluorescein-deplete non-PT (distal) fragments under fluorescence microscopy. Distal tubule (DT) fragments displayed abundance of the Ank3(200/215) but no Ank3(170) or Ank3(120). Isolated PT segments contained all four spliceoforms but dramatically diminished Ank3(200/215). These larger spliceoforms bind Na-K-ATPase in diverse cell types. Densitometric analysis of Ank3(200/215) and Na-K-ATPase abundance measured a lower Ank3(200/215)-to-Na-K-ATPase ratio in the PT vs. the renal cortex. These proximal vs. distal differences in Ank3 spliceoforms were displayed in LLC-PK1 cells, a proximal cell line, and MDCK cells, a distal cell line. The lower PT content of Ank3(200/215) suggests Na-K-ATPase in PT may be organized differently than in DT. Likely reflecting their cell-specific organization, regulation, and function, these studies indicate the different renal cell types express distinct Ank3 spliceoforms.

The ankyrin 33-residue repeating motif, an L-shaped structure with protruding beta-hairpin tips, mediates specific macromolecular interactions with cytoskeletal, membrane, and regulatory proteins. The association between ankyrin and alpha-Na,K-ATPase, a ubiquitous membrane protein critical to vectorial transport of ions and nutrients, is required to assemble and stabilize Na,K-ATPase at the plasma membrane. alpha-Na,K-ATPase binds both red cell ankyrin (AnkR, a product of the ANK1 gene) and Madin-Darby canine kidney cell ankyrin (AnkG, a product of the ANK3 gene) utilizing residues 142-166 (SYYQEAKSSKIMESFK NMVPQQALV) in its second cytoplasmic domain. Fusion peptides of glutathione S-transferase incorporating these 25 amino acids bind specifically to purified ankyrin (Kd = 118 +/- 50 nM). The three-dimensional structure (2.6 A) of this minimal ankyrin-binding motif, crystallized as the fusion protein, reveals a 7-residue loop with one charged hydrophilic face capping a double beta-strand. Comparison with ankyrin-binding sequences in p53, CD44, neurofascin/L1, and the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor suggests that the valency and specificity of ankyrin binding is achieved by the interaction of 5-7-residue surface loops with the beta-hairpin tips of multiple ankyrin repeat units.

We employed cDNA cloning to deduce the complete primary structures of p28 and p40.5, two novel subunits of PA700 (also called 19S complex), a 700 kDa multisubunit regulatory complex of the human 26S proteasome. These polypeptides consisted of 226 and 376 amino acids with calculated molecular masses of 24428 Da and 42945 Da, and isoelectric points of 5. 68 and 5.46, respectively. Intriguingly, p28 contained five conserved motifs known as 'ankyrin repeats', implying that this subunit may contribute to interaction of the 26S proteasome with other protein(s). Computer-assisted homology analysis revealed high sequence similarities of p28 and p40.5 with yeast proteins, termed Nas6p and Nas7p (non-ATPase subunits 6 and 7), respectively, whose functions are as yet unknown. Disruption of these yeast genes, NAS6 and NAS7, had no effect on cell viability, indicating that neither of the two subunits is essential for proliferation of yeast cells. However, the NAS7, but not NAS6, disruptant cells caused high sensitivity to heat stress, being unable to proliferate at 37 degreesC.

Ankyrins are a family of adapter molecules that mediate linkages between integral membrane and cytoskeletal proteins. Such interactions are crucial to the polarized distribution of membrane proteins in transporting epithelia. We have cloned and characterized a novel 190-kDa member of this family from a rat kidney cDNA library, which we term AnkG190 based on the predicted size and homology with the larger neuronal AnkG isoform. AnkG190 displays a unique 31-residue amino terminus, a repeats domain consisting of 24 repetitive 33-residue motifs, a spectrin binding domain, and a truncated regulatory domain. Probes derived from the unique amino terminus hybridize to an 8-kilobase message exclusively in kidney and lung and specifically to the kidney outer medullary collecting ducts by in situ hybridization. Transfections of Madin-Darby canine kidney and COS-7 epithelial cell lines with a full-length AnkG190 construct result in (a) expression at the lateral plasma membrane, (b) functional assembly with the cytoskeleton, and (c) interaction with at least one membrane protein, the Na,K-ATPase. Two independent Na,K-ATPase binding domains on AnkG190 are demonstrated as follows: one within the distal 12 ankyrin repeats, and a second site within the spectrin binding domain. Thus, ankyrins may interact with integral membrane proteins in a pleiotropic manner that may involve complex tertiary structural determinants.

Organization of proteins into structurally and functionally distinct plasma membrane domains is an essential characteristic of polarized epithelial cells. Based on studies with cultured kidney cells, we have hypothesized that a mechanism for restricting Na/K-ATPase to the basal-lateral membrane involves E-cadherin-mediated cell-cell adhesion and integration of Na/K-ATPase into the Triton X-100-insoluble ankyrin- and spectrin-based membrane cytoskeleton. In this study, we examined the relevance of these in vitro observations to the generation of epithelial cell polarity in vivo during mouse kidney development. Using differential detergent extraction, immunoblotting, and immunofluorescence histochemistry, we demonstrate the following. First, expression of the 220-kDa splice variant of ankyrin-3 correlates with the development of resistance to Triton X-100 extraction for Na/K-ATPase, E-cadherin, and catenins and precedes maximal accumulation of Na/K-ATPase. Second, expression of the 190-kDa slice variant of ankyrin-3 correlates with maximal accumulation of Na/K-ATPase. Third, Na/K-ATPase, ankyrin-3, and fodrin specifically colocalize at the basal-lateral plasma membrane of all epithelial cells in which they are expressed and during all stages of nephrogenesis. Fourth, the relative immunofluorescence staining intensities of Na/K-ATPase, ankyrin-3, and fodrin become more similar during development until they are essentially identical in adult kidney. Thus, renal epithelial cells in vivo regulate the accumulation of E-cadherin-mediated adherens junctions, the membrane cytoskeleton, and Na/K-ATPase through sequential protein expression and assembly on the basal-lateral membrane. These results are consistent with a mechanism in which generation and maintenance of polarized distributions of these proteins in vivo and in vitro involve cell-cell adhesion, assembly of the membrane cytoskeleton complex, and concomitant integration and retention of Na/K-ATPase in this complex.

Cytoskeletal proteins associate with specific cell adhesion complexes and membrane proteins and influence the structural and functional organization of polarized epithelial cells in the kidney. Among such proteins that have been studied in cultured cell lines and in animals are the tight junction complex (ZO-1 and occludin), the adherens cell-cell adhesion complex (alpha-, beta-catenin and plakoglobin), and Na+,K+-ATPase, with its associated membrane skeleton proteins ankyrin and fodrin. Although abnormal distribution of these proteins has been implicated in the pathogenesis of various renal diseases, the relevance of these findings to corresponding disease of the human kidney remains to be established. As a first step towards elucidating a role for such proteins in human kidney disease, we undertook a histochemical analysis of the distribution of these proteins in biopsy specimens of human kidney taken from healthy kidney transplant donors. We found each protein to have a characteristic subcellular localization and an intensity of staining that varied among different segments of the nephron in a manner that is consistent with discrete, segmental nephron function.

Active preparations of Na+,K(+)-ATPase containing three types of catalytic isoforms were isolated from the bovine brain to study the structure and function of the sodium pump. Na+,K(+)-ATPase from the brain grey matter was found to have a biphasic kinetics with respect to ouabain inhibition and to consist of a set of isozymes with subunit composition of alpha 1 beta 1, alpha 2 beta m and alpha 3 beta m (where m = 1 and/or 2). The alpha 1 beta 1 form clearly dominated. For the first time, glycosylation of the beta 1-subunit of the alpha 1 beta 1-type isozymes isolated from the kidney and brain was shown to be different. Na+,K(+)-ATPase from the brain stem and axolemma consisted mainly of a mixture of alpha 2 beta 1 and alpha 3 beta 1 isozymes having identical ouabain inhibition constants. In epithelial and arterial smooth muscle cells, where the plasma membrane is divided into functionally and biochemically distinct domains, the polarized distribution of Na+,K(+)-ATPase is maintained through interactions with the membrane cytoskeleton proteins ankyrin and spectrin (Nelson and Hammerton, 1989; Lee et al., 1996). We were the first to show the presence of the cytoskeleton protein tubulin (beta 5-isoform) and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase in a high-molecular-weight complex with Na+,K(+)-ATPase in brain stem neuron cells containing alpha 2 beta 1 and alpha 3 beta 1 isozymes. Consequently, the influence of not only subunit composition, but also of glycan and cytoskeleton structures and other plasma membrane-associated proteins on the functional properties of Na+,K(+)-ATPase isozymes is evident.
