The histidine-binding protein, HisJ, is the soluble receptor for the periplasmic histidine permease of Salmonella typhimurium. The receptor binds the substrate in the periplasm, interacts with the membrane-bound complex, transmits a transmembrane signal to hydrolyze ATP, and releases the ligand for translocation. HisJ, like other periplasmic receptors, has two lobes that are apart in the unliganded structure (open conformation) and drawn close together in the liganded structure (closed conformation), burying deeply the ligand. Such receptors are postulated to interact with the membrane-bound complex with high affinity in their liganded conformation, and, upon substrate translocation, to undergo a reduction in affinity and therefore be released. Here we show that in contrast to the current postulate, liganded and unliganded receptors have equal affinity for the membrane-bound complex. The affinity is measured both by chemical cross-linking and co-sedimentation procedures. An ATPase activity assay is also used to demonstrate the interaction of unliganded receptor with the membrane-bound complex. These findings support a new model for the transport mechanism, in which the soluble receptor functions independently of the commonly accepted high-low affinity switch.

In S. cerevisiae lacking SHR3, amino acid permeases specifically accumulate in membranes of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and fail to be transported to the plasma membrane. We examined the requirements of transport of the permeases from the ER to the Golgi in vitro. Addition of soluble COPII components (Sec23/24p, Sec13/31p, and Sar1p) to yeast membrane preparations generated vesicles containing the general amino acid permease. Gap1p, and the histidine permease, Hip1p. Shr3p was required for the packaging of Gap1p and Hip1p but was not itself incorporated into transport vesicles. In contrast, the packaging of the plasma membrane ATPase, Pma1p, and the soluble yeast pheromone precursor, glycosylated pro alpha factor, was independent of Shr3p. In addition, we show that integral membrane and soluble cargo colocalize in transport vesicles, indicating that different types of cargo are not segregated at an early step in secretion. Our data suggest that specific ancillary proteins in the ER membrane recruit subsets of integral membrane protein cargo into COPII transport vesicles.

The superfamily of traffic ATPases (ABC transporters) includes bacterial periplasmic transport systems (permeases) and eukaryotic transporters. The histidine permease of Salmonella typhimurium is composed of a membrane-bound complex (HisQMP2) containing four subunits, and of a soluble receptor, the histidine-binding protein (HisJ). Transport is energized by ATP. In this article the ATPase activity of HisQMP2 has been characterized, using a novel assay that is independent of transport. The assay uses Mg2+ ions to permeabilize membrane vesicles or proteoliposomes, thus allowing access of ATP to both sides of the bilayer. HisQMP2 displays a low level of intrinsic ATPase activity in the absence of HisJ; unliganded HisJ stimulates the activity and liganded HisJ stimulates to an even higher level. All three levels of activity display positive cooperativity for ATP with a Hill coefficient of 2 and a K0. 5 value of 0.6 mM. The activity has been characterized with respect to pH, salt, phospholipids, substrate, and inhibitor specificity. Free histidine has no effect. The activity is inhibited by orthovanadate, but not by N-ethylmaleimide, bafilomycin A1, or ouabain. Several nucleotide analogs, ADP, 5'-adenylyl-beta, gamma-imidodiphosphate, adenosine 5'-(beta,gammaimino)triphosphate, and adenosine 5'-O-(3-thio)triphosphate, inhibit the activity. Unliganded HisJ does not compete with liganded HisJ for the stimulation of the ATPase activity of HisQMP2.

The nucleotide-binding subunit, HisP, of the histidine permease, a traffic ATPase (ABC transporter), has been purified as a soluble protein and characterized. Addition of a 6-histidine extension (HisP(His6)) allows a rapid and effective metal affinity purification, giving a 30-fold purification with a yield of 50%. HisP(his6) is indistinguishable from underivatized HisP when incorporated into the permease membrane-bound complex, HisQMP2. Purified HisP(his6) has a strong tendency to precipitate; 5 mM ATP and 20% glycerol maintain it in solution at a high protein concentration. HisP(his6) is active as a dimer, binds ATP with a Kd value of 205 microM, and hydrolyzes it at a rate comparable to that of HisQMP2; in contrast to the latter, it does not display cooperativity for ATP. HisP(his6) has been characterized with respect to substrate and inhibitor specificity and various physico-chemical characteristics. Its pH optimum is 7 and it requires a cation for activity, with Co2+ and Mn2+ being more effective than Mg2+ at lower concentrations but inhibitory in the higher concentration range. In contrast to the intact complex, HisP(his6) is not inhibited by vanadate but is inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide. Neither the soluble receptor, HisJ, nor the transport substrate, histidine, has any effect on the activity.

The membrane-bound complex of the Salmonella typhimurium periplasmic histidine permease, a member of the ABC transporters (or traffic ATPases) superfamily, is composed of two integral membrane proteins, HisQ and HisM, and two copies of an ATP-binding subunit, HisP. The complex hydrolyzes ATP upon induction of the activity by the liganded soluble receptor, the periplasmic histidine-binding protein, HisJ. Here we take advantage of the modular organization of this system to show that the nucleotide-binding component can be stripped off the integral membrane components, HisQ and HisM. The complex can be reconstituted by using the HisP-depleted membranes containing HisQ and HisM and pure soluble HisP. We show that HisP has high affinity for the HisP-depleted complex, HisQM, and that two HisP molecules are recruited independently of each other for each HisQM unit. The in vitro reassembled complex has entirely normal properties, responding to HisJ and ATPase inhibitors with the same characteristics as the original complex and in contrast to those of soluble HisP. These results show that HisP is absolutely required for ATP hydrolysis, that HisQM cannot hydrolyze ATP, that HisP depends on HisQM to relay the inducing signal from the soluble receptor, HisJ, and that HisQM regulates the ATPase activity of HisP. We also show that HisP changes conformation upon exposure to phospholipids.

The histidine permease of Salmonella typhimurium is an ABC transporter (traffic ATPase). The liganded soluble receptor, the histidine-binding protein HisJ, interacts with the membrane-bound complex HisQMP2 and stimulates its ATPase activity, which results in histidine translocation. In this study, we utilized HisJ proteins with mutations in either of the two lobes and wild type HisJ liganded with different substrates to show that each lobe carries an interaction site and that both lobes are involved in inducing (stimulating) the ATPase activity. We suggest that the spatial relationship between the lobes is one of the factors recognized by the membrane-bound complex in dictating the efficiency of the induction signal and of translocation. Several of the key residues involved have been identified. In addition, using constitutive ATPase mutants, we show that the binding protein provides some additional essential function(s) in translocation that is independent of the stimulation of ATP hydrolysis, and one possible mechanism is proposed, which includes the notion that liganded HisJ has different optimal conformations for signaling and for translocation.

The pH-dependent inhibition of 22 metal salts have been systematically investigated for the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We have established that the inhibition of growth by Cu, Co, or Ni salts is markedly enhanced by histidine auxotrophy and by increasing the pH of the medium. Each of the his1-his7 mutant strains were unable to grow in the presence of elevated levels of Cu, Co, or Ni at nearly neutral pHs, in contrast to His(+) strains, which grew under these conditions. The Cu, Co, or Ni inhibition was reversed by the addition of histidine to the medium. Deletion of the high-affinity histidine permease Hip1p in His(-) strains resulted in even greater sensitivity to Cu, Co, and Ni and the requirement of an even higher level of histidine to reverse the inhibition. These results suggest that intracellular histidine, most likely in the vacuole, diminishes the pH-dependent toxicity of Cu, Co, and Ni. Furthermore, the toxicity of many salts is exacerbated in strains with a defective vacuolar H(+)-ATPase, which abolishes the ability of yeast to maintain an acidic vacuole, a compartment known to sequester metal compounds. We suggest that the accumulation of histidine in the vacuole is a normal process used to detoxify Cu, Co, and Ni.

The ABC transporter, P-glycoprotein, is an integral membrane protein that mediates the ATP-driven efflux of drugs from multidrug-resistant cancer and HIV-infected cells. Anti-P-glycoprotein antibody C219 binds to both of the ATP-binding regions of P-glycoprotein and has been shown to inhibit its ATPase activity and drug binding capacity. C219 has been widely used in a clinical setting as a tumor marker, but recent observations of cross-reactivity with other proteins, including the c-erbB2 protein in breast cancer cells, impose potential limitations in detecting P-glycoprotein. We have determined the crystal structure at a resolution of 2.4 A of the variable fragment of C219 in complex with an epitope peptide derived from the nucleotide binding domain of P-glycoprotein. The 14-residue peptide adopts an amphipathic alpha-helical conformation, a secondary structure not previously observed in structures of antibody-peptide complexes. Together with available biochemical data, the crystal structure of the C219-peptide complex indicates the molecular basis of the cross-reactivity of C219 with non-multidrug resistance-associated proteins. Alignment of the C219 epitope with the recent crystal structure of the ATP-binding subunit of histidine permease suggests a structural basis for the inhibition of the ATP and drug binding capacity of P-glycoprotein by C219. The results provide a rationale for the development of C219 mutants with improved specificity and affinity that could be useful in antibody-based P-glycoprotein detection and therapy in multidrug resistant cancers.

The bacterial histidine permease is a model system for ABC transporters (traffic ATPases). The water-soluble receptor of this permease, HisJ, binds L-histidine and L-arginine (tightly) and L-lysine and L-ornithine (less tightly) in the periplasm, interacts with the membrane-bound complex (HisQMP2) and induces its ATPase activity, which results in ligand translocation. HisJ is a two-domain protein; in the absence of ligand, the cleft between two domains is open and binding of substrate stabilizes the closed conformation. Surprisingly, various liganded HisJ forms display substantial differences in their physicochemical characteristics and capacity to induce the ATPase. This is due to either different effects of the individual ligands on the respective closed structures, or to different equilibria being reached for each ligand between the open liganded form and the closed liganded form [Wolf, A. , Lee, K.C., Kirsch, J.F. & Ames, G.F.-L. (1996) J. Biol. Chem. 271, 21243-21250]. In this work, time-resolved measurements of the decay of intrinsic HisJ fluorescence and of the decay of the anisotropy of the fluorescence, as well as the analysis of the steady-state near UV CD and fluorescence spectra, rule out the model in which the differences between liganded complexes reflect different equilibria. The decay of the anisotropy of the fluorescence shows that liganded complexes differ dramatically in their large-scale conformational dynamics. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) curves for the HisJ thermal unfolding are well described by a scheme of equilibrium two-state unfolding of two independent domains, which can be ascribed to the two-domain structure of HisJ. This is true both for apo-HisJ at various pH values, and for HisJ in the presence of its ligands at varying concentrations, at pH 8.3. The DSC and structural data suggest that all ligands interact more extensively with the larger domain. A qualitative model for the HisJ conformational dynamics employing the idea of a twisting movement of the domains is proposed, which explains the difference in the efficacy of the ATPase induction by the various liganded HisJ forms.

Cystic fibrosis is caused by mutations in the gene encoding the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). This protein belongs to the large ATP-binding cassette (ABC) family of transporters. Most patients with cystic fibrosis bear a mutation in the nucleotide-binding domain 1 (NBD1) of CFTR, which plays a key role in the activation of the channel function of CFTR. Determination of the three dimensional structure of NBD1 is essential to better understand its structure-function relationship, and relate it to the biological features of CFTR. In this paper, we report the first preparation of recombinant His-tagged NBD1, as a soluble, stable and isolated domain. The method avoids the use of renaturing processes or fusion constructs. ATPase activity assays show that the recombinant domain is functional. Using tryptophan intrinsic fluorescence, we point out that the local conformation, in the region of the most frequent mutation DeltaF508, could differ from that of the nucleotide-binding subunit of histidine permease, the only available ABC structure. We have undertaken three dimensional structure determination of NBD1, and the first two dimensional 15N-1H NMR spectra demonstrate that the domain is folded. The method should be applicable to the structural studies of NBD2 or of other NBDs from different ABC proteins of major biological interest, such as multidrug resistance protein 1 or multidrug resistance associated protein 1.
