165 Because mutant L65C had only 51% of the verapamil-stimulated ATPase activity relative to that of the Cys-less parent (22), treatment with MTS treatment essentially restored the activity of the mutant to that of the Cys-less P-gp. Login to comment

111 We found that the activity of only one cysteine mutant in TM1 (L65C) was permanently activated after treatment with MTS-verapamil (Figure 2B). Login to comment
112 Mutant L65C showed a 10.7-fold increase in activity after modification with 0.3-1 mM MTS-verapamil compared with an untreated control. Login to comment
115 To test whether activation of mutant L65C by MTS-verapamil was due to covalent attachment of verapamil, we treated the modified mutant with 20 mM of the reducing agent DTT (dithiothreitol) and then measured ATPase activity. Figure 3 shows that the presence of DTT almost completely abolished the enhanced ATPase activity of mutant L65C. Login to comment
116 After treatment with DTT, the activity of MTS-verapamil-treated mutant L65C Figure 3 Effect of DTT on mutant L65C modified with MTS-verapamil His-tagged mutant L65C was expressed in HEK-293 cells. Login to comment
123 We then tested whether labelling of mutant L65C with MTS-verapamil could be inhibited by the drug substrate verapamil. Login to comment
124 The rationale for these experiments was that if residue L65C contributed to binding of MTS-verapamil, then the presence of verapamil should protect mutant L65C from being modified. Login to comment
125 We also tested whether Rhodamine B had any effect on labelling of mutant L65C by MTS-verapamil. Login to comment
130 Accordingly, BHK cells stably expressing mutant L65C were used for these studies because they do not show any variation in P-gp expression as observed with transient expression in HEK293 cells. Login to comment
133 BHK cells stably expressing His-tagged L65C were harvested, solubilized with n-dodecyl-β-D-maltoside and then incubated with saturating levels of verapamil (2 mM) or Rhodamine B (3 mM) for 10 min at 20◦ C. The samples were then reacted for Figure 4 MTS-verapamil labelling of mutant L65C is inhibited by verapamil BHK cells stably expressing His-tagged mutant L65C were solubilized with n-dodecyl-β- D-maltoside. Insoluble material was removed by centrifugation. Equivalent amounts of supernatant were incubated for 10 min at 20◦C in the presence of no drug (No Drug), 2 mM verapamil (Ver) or 3 mM Rhodamine B (Rhod). Login to comment
136 10 min at 20◦ C in the absence or presence of 0.1 mM MTS-verapamil, as this was the minimum concentration that gave almost complete modification of mutant L65C (Figure 2C). Login to comment
139 The eluted samples were mixed with lipid, sonicated and assayed for ATPase activity. Figure 4 shows that the presence of verapamil reduced the labelling efficiency of mutant L65C by MTS-verapamil by more than 80%. Login to comment
140 In contrast, the presence of Rhodamine B during labelling with MTS-verapamil caused very little (<10%) reduction in labelling of mutant L65C (Figure 4). Login to comment
142 We then tested whether other drug substrates could still interact with mutant L65C that had been covalently labelled with MTS-verapamil. Login to comment
143 The rationale was that substrates will not affect the ATPase activity of MTS-verapamil-modified mutant L65C if they occupy the same binding site as verapamil or if their binding site significantly overlaps that of verapamil, but will further stimulate or inhibit the activity if their binding sites are different from that of verapamil.

Login to comment
152 We used E. coli lipids because the higher basal ATPase activity made it easier for us to detect for inhibition of activity. Figure 5(A) shows that in unmodified mutant L65C, verapamil stimulated the ATPase activity 4.6-fold, whereas calcein-AM and demecolcine stimulated the ATPase activity 7.0and 5.9-fold respectively. Login to comment
154 When mutant L65C was modified with MTS-verapamil however, its basal activity was increased 4.6-fold compared with an untreated sample (Figure 5B). Login to comment
157 These results suggest that modification of mutant L65C by MTS-verapamil blocks interaction of P-gp with drug substrates calcein-AM, demecolcine and trans-(E)-flupentixol, but not its interaction with cyclosporin. Login to comment
158 The characteristics of the mutant L65C after labelling with MTS-verapamil suggested that Cys65 lined the drug-binding pocket. Another method to test for this possibility is to test whether Cys65 can be cross-linked to cysteine residues in the TMs of TMD2 that were previously shown to be involved in drug binding [15,17].

160 Accordingly, Figure 6 Disulphide cross-linking of P-gp mutants (A) Membranes were prepared from HEK-293 cells (A) expressing mutants L65C, L65C/T945C, L65C/V982C, L65C/G984C or L65C/A985C. Login to comment

186 Mutant L65C(TM1)/ I306C(TM5) showed only a 2.8-fold increase in activity after treatment with MTS-verapamil (Figure 7), whereas mutant L65C showed >10-fold increase in activity (Figure 2B). Login to comment
189 DISCUSSION Only one mutant in TM1, L65C, was able to adopt a conformation that permanently hydrolysed ATP after modification with MTS-verapamil. Login to comment
191 Attachment of MTS-verapamil to Cys65 seems to mimic interaction of P-gp with verapamil because the ATPase activity of the MTS-verapamil-treated mutant L65C was very similar to that of untreated mutant L65C in the presence of saturating levels of verapamil. Login to comment
200 Arrangement of the residues in TM1 in a cylindrical helix (Figure 8A) shows that residues that react with MTS-verapamil (L65C; the present study) show alterations in substrate specificity when mutated (H61C, G644C and L65C; [44,45]) or show ATP-dependent cross-linking (M68 and M69; [30]) and occupy one face of the helix. Login to comment
204 Since the present study has shown that L65C is involved in binding of verapamil, then cross-linking studies between TM1 and TM11 during ATP hydrolysis [30] would indicate that conformational changes in TM1 and TM11 probably contribute to the release of drug substrate during ATP hydrolysis.

212 While the ATPase activities of both mutants L65C and I306C modified by MTS-verapamil could not be further stimulated by calcein-AM or demecolcine, the inhibition of their activities were different. Login to comment
213 The ATPase activity of mutant I306C modified by MTS-verapamil could not be inhibited by cyclosporin A or trans-(E)-flupentixol [40], whereas that of MTS-verapamil- modified mutant L65C was inhibited only by cyclosporin A (Figure 5). Login to comment
214 This difference in sensitivity to inhibition by cyclosporin A suggests that both verapamil and cyclosporin A could bind simultaneously to mutant L65C, whereas covalent Figure 8 Arrangement of TM1 residues in a cylindrical helix and MTS-verapamil in the drug-binding pocket (A) The residues of TM1 are arranged in a cylindrical helix.

215 Residues that show alterations in substrate specificity when mutated (H61C, G644C and L65C, circled) or show ATP-dependent cross-linking (Met68 and Met69 , boxed) with residues in TM11 are shown as occupying one face of the helix. Login to comment
227 Labelling of mutant L65C (TM1) (the present study) or Ile306 (TM5) [40] with MTS-verapamil stimulated the ATPase activity of P-gp by more than 8-10-fold but labelling of the double cysteine mutant L65C(TM1)/I306C(TM5) with MTS-verapamil reduced the verapamil-stimulated ATPase activity of the enzyme (Figure 7).

90 We have previously shown that modification of specific cysteines in TM1 (L65C) and in TM5 (I306C) with MTS-verapamil caused permanent activation of P-gp ATPase activity (an 8to 11-fold increase in activity compared with untreated P-gp) [27,36]. Login to comment
161 cysteines facing the drug-binding pocket that may be cross-linked with F728C are L65C(TM1), I306C(TM5) and F343C(TM6) because they were covalently modified with MTS-verapamil (L65C and I306C) or with MTS-Rhodamine (F343C). Login to comment

85 This is in accordance with a study on ABCB1 where cysteine-scanning mutagenesis and reaction with a methanethiosulfonate (MTS) thiol reactive analogue of verapamil (MTS verapamil) showed that mutants Leu65Cys (TMH1) and Ile306Cys (TMH5) modified with MTS verapamil have slightly different characteristics, indicating that the bound verapamil molecules in these mutants have different orientations and that the protein can function quite well with the substrate bound in different orientations.28 Theoretically, even though 10 different conformations of each ligand were evaluated by ICM during VLS, focusing on only the ligand orientation with best score may lead to missing out better inhibitors oriented in a pose yielding a poorer score.
