Cdr1p, an ATP-binding cassette transporter from the pathogenic yeast Candida albicans, confers resistance to several unrelated drugs including anti-Candida drugs (Prasad et al., 1995b). We demonstrate that the deletion of 237 bp (79 aa) from the 3' end of CDR1 (which encompasses the transmembrane domain (TM) 12 of the putative transporter) did not result in the total loss of its ability to efflux cytotoxic agents. While the expression of deltaCDR1 in yeast resulted in impaired sensitivity to drugs like cycloheximide, anisomycin, sulfomethuron methyl and antifungal nystatin, its ability to confer resistance remained unaltered to drugs such as o-phenanthroline, 4-nitroquinoline-N-oxide, cerulenin, azoles, oligomycin, erythromycin, and benomyl. Similar to human MDR1p. Cdr1p might also have localized drug binding sites in TM 12, but that might not be the case for all the drugs. The TM 12 deletion also did not lead to any significant impairment in NTPase activities. Both ATPase and UTPase activities of complete Cdr1p and deltaCdr1p were not significantly altered, as was the case with respect to their ability to efflux Rh123 and steroid hormone like [3H]-beta-estradiol. To further dissect the functionality of Cdr1p, its truncated version was overexpressed in a baculovirus-insect cell expression system. The synthesis of deltaCdr1p in Sf9 cells was temporally regulated as a function of the baculovirus polyhedrin gene promoter. The Sf9 derived deltaCdr1p was approximately 130 kDa, which was lower than the expected size, probably due to the differences in glycosylation. This, however, did not affect the functionality of deltaCdr1p. The deletion of TM 12 did not affect the targeting of the protein and deltaCdr1p was exclusively localized in plasma membrane of Sf9 cells as detected by immunofluorescence. The expression of deltaCdr1p in the baculovirus-insect expression system generated a high drug-stimulated plasma membrane-bound ATPase activity which was not demonstrable when deltaCdr1p was expressed in yeast.

The ATP-binding cassette transporter protein, multidrug resistance protein MRP1, was purified from doxorubicin-selected H69AR lung tumor cells which express high levels of this protein. A purification procedure comprised of a differential two-step solubilization of MRP1 from plasma membranes with 3-(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio-1-propanesulfonate followed by immunoaffinity chromatography using the MRP1-specific monoclonal antibody QCRL-1 was developed. Approximately 300 microgram of MRP1 was obtained from 6 mg of plasma membranes at 80-90% purity, as indicated by silver staining of protein gels. After reconstitution of purified MRP1 into proteoliposomes, kinetic analyses indicated that its K(m) for ATP hydrolysis was 104+/-22 microM with maximal activity of 5-10 nmol min(-1) mg(-1) MRP1. MRP1 ATPase activity was further characterized with various inhibitors and exhibited an inhibition profile that distinguishes it from P-glycoprotein and other ATPases. The ATPase activity of reconstituted MRP1 was stimulated by the conjugated organic anion substrates leukotriene C(4) (LTC(4)) and 17beta-estradiol 17-(beta-D-glucuronide) with 50% maximal stimulation achieved at concentrations of 150 nM and 1.6 microM, respectively. MRP1 ATPase was also stimulated by glutathione disulfide but not by reduced glutathione or unconjugated chemotherapeutic agents. This purification and reconstitution procedure is the first to be described in which the ATPase activity of the reconstituted MRP1 retains kinetic characteristics with respect to ATP-dependence and substrate stimulation that are very similar to those deduced from transport studies using MRP1-enriched plasma membrane vesicles.

ABCR is a photoreceptor-specific ATP-binding cassette transporter that has been linked to various retinal diseases, including Stargardt macular dystrophy, and implicated in retinal transport across rod outer segment (ROS) membranes. We have examined the ATPase and GTPase activity of detergent-solubilized and reconstituted ABCR. 3-[(3-Cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonic acid-solubilized ABCR had ATPase and GTPase activity (K(m) approximately 75 micrometer V(max) approximately 200 nmol/min/mg) that was stimulated 1.5-2-fold by all-trans-retinal and dependent on phospholipid and dithiothreitol. The K(m) for ATP decreased to approximately 25 micrometer after reconstitution, whereas the V(max) was strongly dependent on the lipid used for reconstitution. ABCR reconstituted in ROS phospholipid had a V(max) for basal and retinal activated ATPase activity that was 4-6 times higher than for ABCR in soybean or brain phospholipid. This enhanced activity was mainly due to the high phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) content of ROS membranes. PE was also required for retinoid-stimulated ATPase activity. ATPase activity of ABCR was stimulated by the addition of N-retinylidene-PE but not the reduced derivative, retinyl-PE. ABCR expressed in COS-1 cells also exhibited retinal-stimulated ATPase activity similar to that of the native protein. These results support the view that ABCR is an active retinoid transporter, the nucleotidase activity of which is strongly influenced by its lipid environment.

The 190-kDa multidrug resistance protein MRP1 (ABCC1) is a polytopic transmembrane protein belonging to the ATP-binding cassette transporter superfamily. In addition to conferring resistance to various antineoplastic agents, MRP1 is a transporter of conjugated organic anions, including the cysteinyl leukotriene C(4) (LTC(4)). We previously characterized the ATPase activity of reconstituted immunoaffinity-purified native MRP1 and showed it could be stimulated by its organic anion substrates (Mao, Q., Leslie, E. M., Deeley, R. G., and Cole, S. P. C. (1999) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1461, 69-82). Here we show that purified reconstituted MRP1 is also capable of active transport of its substrates. Thus LTC(4) uptake by MRP1 proteoliposomes was osmotically sensitive and could be inhibited by two MRP1-specific monoclonal antibodies. LTC(4) uptake was also markedly reduced by the competitive inhibitor, S-decyl-glutathione, as well as by the MRP1 substrates 17 beta-estradiol 17-beta-(d-glucuronide), oxidized glutathione, and vincristine in the presence of reduced glutathione. The K(m) for ATP and LTC(4) were 357 +/- 184 microm and 366 +/- 38 nm, respectively, and 2.14 +/- 0.75 microm for 17 beta-estradiol 17-beta-(d-glucuronide). Transport of vincristine required the presence of both ATP and GSH. Conversely, GSH transport was stimulated by vincristine and verapamil. Our data represent the first reconstitution of transport competent purified native MRP1 and confirm that MRP1 is an efflux pump, which can transport conjugated organic anions and co-transport vincristine together with GSH.

In Escherichia coli, interaction of a periplasmic maltose-binding protein with a membrane-associated ATP-binding cassette transporter stimulates ATP hydrolysis, resulting in translocation of maltose into the cell. The maltose transporter contains two transmembrane subunits, MalF and MalG, and two copies of a nucleotide-hydrolyzing subunit, MalK. Mutant transport complexes that function in the absence of binding protein are thought to be stabilized in an ATPase-active conformation. To probe the conformation of the nucleotide-binding site and to gain an understanding of the nature of the conformational changes that lead to activation, cysteine 40 within the Walker A motif of the MalK subunit was modified by the fluorophore 2-(4'-maleimidoanilino)naphthalene-6-sulfonic acid. Fluorescence differences indicated that residues involved in nucleotide binding were less accessible to aqueous solvent in the binding protein independent transporter than in the wild-type transporter. Similar differences in fluorescence were seen when a vanadate-trapped transition state conformation was compared with the ground state in the wild-type transporter. Our results and recent crystal structures are consistent with a model in which activation of ATPase activity is associated with conformational changes that bring the two MalK subunits closer together, completing the nucleotide-binding sites and burying ATP in the interface.

Escherichia coli MsbA, the proposed inner membrane lipid flippase, is an essential ATP-binding cassette transporter protein with homology to mammalian multidrug resistance proteins. Depletion or loss of function of MsbA results in the accumulation of lipopolysaccharide and phospholipids in the inner membrane of E. coli. MsbA modified with an N-terminal hexahistidine tag was overexpressed, solubilized with a nonionic detergent, and purified by nickel affinity chromatography to approximately 95% purity. The ATPase activity of the purified protein was stimulated by phospholipids. When reconstituted into liposomes prepared from E. coli phospholipids, MsbA displayed an apparent K(m) of 878 microm and a V(max) of 37 nmol/min/mg for ATP hydrolysis in the presence of 10 mm Mg(2+). Preincubation of MsbA-containing liposomes with 3-deoxy-d-mannooctulosonic acid (Kdo)(2)-lipid A increased the ATPase activity 4-5-fold, with half-maximal stimulation seen at 21 microm Kdo(2)-lipid A. Addition of Kdo(2)-lipid A increased the V(max) to 154 nmol/min/mg and decreased the K(m) to 379 microm. Stimulation was only seen with hexaacylated lipid A species and not with precursors, such as diacylated lipid X or tetraacylated lipid IV(A). MsbA containing the A270T substitution, which renders cells temperature-sensitive for growth and lipid export, displayed ATPase activity similar to that of the wild type protein at 30 degrees C but was significantly reduced at 42 degrees C. These results provide the first in vitro evidence that MsbA is a lipid-activated ATPase and that hexaacylated lipid A is an especially potent activator.

P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is a plasma membrane ATP-binding cassette transporter, responsible for multidrug resistance in tumor cells. P-gp catalyzes the ATP hydrolysis-dependent efflux of numerous amphiphilic compounds of unrelated chemical structures. In the absence of any identified substrate, P-gp exhibits an apparently futile, basal ATPase activity. By using native membrane vesicles containing high amounts of P-gp, we show here that (i) this basal ATPase activity is tightly dependent on the presence of cholesterol in the membrane; (ii) the stimulation of P-gp ATPase activity by drugs transported by P-gp is higher in the absence than in the presence of cholesterol and, conversely, the stimulation of P-gp ATPase activity by cholesterol is higher in the absence than in the presence of known P-gp substrates; (iii) P-gp mediates the ATP-dependent relocation of cholesterol from the cytosolic leaflet to the exoplasmic leaflet of the plasma membrane; and (iv) the decrease of the cholesterol dependence of P-gp ATPase activity induced by known P-gp substrates is correlated with the inhibition of the ATP-dependent cholesterol redistribution within the membrane. These data are highly evocative of a coupling between the basal ATPase activity of P-gp and its intramembrane cholesterol-redistribution function, and they are fully consistent with the possibility that P-gp may actively translocate cholesterol in the membrane. Finally, this P-gp-mediated cholesterol redistribution in the cell membrane makes it likely that P-gp contributes in stabilizing the cholesterol-rich microdomains, rafts and caveolae, and that it is involved in the regulation of cholesterol trafficking in cells.

The maltose ATP-binding cassette transporter of Salmonella typhimurium is composed of a membrane-associated complex (MalFGK2) and a periplasmic receptor (MalE). In addition to its role in transport, the complex acts as a repressor of maltose-regulated gene expression and is subject to inhibition in the process of inducer exclusion. These activities are thought to be mediated by interactions of the ATPase subunit, MalK, with the transcriptional activator, MalT, and nonphosphorylated enzyme IIA of the glucose phosphotransferase system, respectively. To gain further insight in protein regions that are critical for these functions, we have generated nine MalK-specific monoclonal antibodies. These bind to four nonoverlapping linear epitopes: 60-LFig-63 (5B5), 113-RVNQVAEVLQL-123 (represented by 4H12), 309-GHETQI-314 (2F9) and 352-LFREDGSACR-361 (represented by 4B3). All mAbs recognize their epitopes in soluble MalK and in the MalFGK2 complex with Kd values ranging from 10-6 to 10-8 m. ATP reduced the affinity of the mAbs for soluble MalK, indicating a conformational change that renders the epitopes less accessible. 4H12 and 5B5 inhibit the ATPase activity of MalK and the MalE/maltose-stimulated ATPase activity of proteoliposomes, while their Fab fragments displayed no significant effect. The results suggest a similar solvent-exposed position of helix 3 in the MalK dimer and in the intact complex and might argue against a direct role in the catalytic process. 4B3 and 2F9 exhibit reduced binding to the MalFGK2 complex in the presence of MalT and enzyme IIAGlc, respectively, thereby providing the first direct evidence for the C-terminal domain of MalK being the site of interaction with the regulatory proteins.

Human multidrug resistance protein 1 (MRP1) is a member of the ATP-binding cassette transporter family and transports chemotherapeutic drugs as well as diverse organic anions such as leukotriene LTC(4). The transport of chemotherapeutic drugs requires the presence of reduced GSH. By using hydrogen/deuterium exchange kinetics and limited trypsin digestion, the structural changes associated with each step of the drug transport process are analyzed. Purified MRP1 is reconstituted into lipid vesicles with an inside-out orientation, exposing its cytoplasmic region to the external medium. The resulting proteoliposomes have been shown previously to exhibit both ATP-dependent drug transport and drug-stimulated ATPase activity. Our results show that during GSH-dependent drug transport, MRP1 does not undergo secondary structure changes but only modifications in its accessibility toward the external environment. Drug binding induces a restructuring of MRP1 membrane-embedded domains that does not affect the cytosolic domains, including the nucleotide binding domains, responsible for ATP hydrolysis. This demonstrates that drug binding to MRP1 is not sufficient to propagate an allosteric signal between the membrane and the cytosolic domains. On the other hand, GSH binding induces a conformational change that affects the structural organization of the cytosolic domains and enhances ATP binding and/or hydrolysis suggesting that GSH-mediated conformational changes are required for the coupling between drug transport and ATP hydrolysis. Following ATP binding, the protein adopts a conformation characterized by a decreased stability and/or an increased accessibility toward the aqueous medium. No additional change in the accessibility toward the solvent and/or the stability of this specific conformational state and no change of the transmembrane helices orientation are observed upon ATP hydrolysis. Binding of a non-transported drug affects the dynamic changes occurring during ATP binding and hydrolysis and restricts the movement of the drug and its release.

Vitamin B(12) (cobalamin) is an essential cofactor of two enzymes, methionine synthase and methylmalonyl-CoA mutase. The conversion of the vitamin to its coenzymes requires a series of biochemical modifications for which several genetic diseases are known, comprising eight complementation groups (cblA through cblH). The objective of this study was to clone the gene responsible for the cblA complementation group thought to represent a mitochondrial cobalamin reductase. Examination of bacterial operons containing genes in close proximity to the gene for methylmalonyl-CoA mutase and searching for orthologous sequences in the human genome yielded potential candidates. A candidate gene was evaluated for deleterious mutations in cblA patient cell lines, which revealed a 4-bp deletion in three cell lines, as well as an 8-bp insertion and point mutations causing a stop codon and an amino acid substitution. These data confirm that the identified gene, MMAA, corresponds to the cblA complementation group. It is located on chromosome 4q31.1-2 and encodes a predicted protein of 418 aa. A Northern blot revealed RNA species of 1.4, 2.6, and 5.5 kb predominating in liver and skeletal muscle. The deduced amino acid sequence reveals a domain structure, which belongs to the AAA ATPase superfamily that encompasses a wide variety of proteins including ATP-binding cassette transporter accessory proteins that bind ATP and GTP. We speculate that we have identified a component of a transporter or an accessory protein that is involved in the translocation of vitamin B(12) into mitochondria.
