KEY POINTS: Slc4a4 (mouse) encodes at least five variants of the electrogenic sodium/bicarbonate transporter NBCe1. The initial 41 cytosolic amino acids of NBCe1-A and -D are unique; NBCe1-A has high activity. The initial 85 amino acids of NBCe1-B, -C and -E are unique; NBCe1-B and -C have low activity. Previous work showed that deleting residues 1-85 or 40-62 of NBCe1-B, or 1-87 of NBCe1-C, eliminates autoinhibition. These regions also include binding determinants for IRBIT (inositol trisphosphate (IP3 )-receptor binding protein released with IP3 ), which relieves autoinhibition. Here, systematically replacing/deleting residues 28-62, we find that only the nine amino acid cationic cluster (residues 40-48) of NBCe1-B is essential for autoinhibition. IRBIT stimulates all but one low-activity construct. We suggest that electrostatic interactions - which IRBIT presumably interrupts - between the cationic cluster and the membrane or other domains of NBCe1 play a central role in tempering the activity of NBCe1-B in the pancreas, brain and other organs.
ABSTRACT: Variant B of the electrogenic Na+ /HCO3- cotransporter (NBCe1-B) contributes to the vectorial transport of HCO3- in epithelia (e.g. pancreatic ducts) and to the maintenance of intracellular pH in the central nervous systems (e.g. astrocytes). NBCe1-B has very low basal activity due to an autoinhibitory domain (AID) located, at least in part, in the unique portion (residues 1-85) of the cytosolic NH2 -terminus. Previous work has shown that removing 23 amino acids (residues 40-62) stimulates NBCe1-B. Here, we test the hypothesis that a cationic cluster of nine consecutive positively charged amino acids (residues 40-48) is a necessary part of the AID. Using two-electrode voltage clamping of Xenopus oocytes, we assess the activity of human NBCe1-B constructs in which we systematically replace or delete residues 28-62, which includes the cationic cluster. We find that replacing or deleting all residues within the cationic cluster markedly increases NBCe1-B activity (i.e. eliminates autoinhibition). On the background of a cationic clusterless construct, systematically restoring Arg residues restores autoinhibition in two distinct quanta, with one to three Arg residues restoring ∼50%, and four or more Arg residues restoring virtually all autoinhibition. Systematically deleting residues before the cluster reduces autoinhibition by, at most, a small amount. Replacing or deleting residues after the cluster has no effect. For constructs with low NBCe1 activity (but good surface expression, as assessed by biotinylation), co-expression with super-IRBIT (lacking PP1-binding site) restores full activity (i.e. relieves autoinhibition). In summary, the cationic cluster is a necessary component of the AID of NBCe1-B.
