Extent of the selectivity filter conferred by the sixth transmembrane region in the CFTR chloride channel pore.
Mol Membr Biol. 2003 Jan-Mar;20(1):45-52., [PMID:12745925]

Abstract [show]
Point mutations within the pore region of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) Cl(-) channel have previously been shown to alter the selectivity of the channel between different anions, suggesting that part of the pore may form an anion 'selectivity filter'. However, the full extent of this selectivity filter region and the location of anion binding sites in the pore are currently unclear. As a result, comparisons between CFTR and other classes of Cl(-) channel of known structure are difficult. We compare here the effects of point mutations at each of eight consecutive amino acid residues (arginine 334-serine 341) in the crucial sixth transmembrane region (TM6) of CFTR. Anion selectivity was determined using patch-clamp recording from inside-out membrane patches excised from transiently transfected mammalian cell lines. The results suggest that selectivity is predominantly controlled by a single site involving adjacent residues phenylalanine 337 and threonine 338, and that the selectivity conferred by this 'filter' region is modified by anion binding to flanking sites involving the more extracellular arginine 334 and the more intracellular serine 341. Other residues within this part of the pore play only minor roles in controlling anion permeability and conductance. Our results support a model in which specific TM6 residues make important contributions to a single, localized anion selectivity filter in the CFTR pore, and also contribute to multiple anion binding sites both within and on either side of the filter region.

[hide] Differential contribution of TM6 and TM12 to the p... Pflugers Arch. 2012 Mar;463(3):405-18. Epub 2011 Dec 13. Cui G, Song B, Turki HW, McCarty NA
Differential contribution of TM6 and TM12 to the pore of CFTR identified by three sulfonylurea-based blockers.
Pflugers Arch. 2012 Mar;463(3):405-18. Epub 2011 Dec 13., [PMID:22160394]

Abstract [show]
Previous studies suggested that four transmembrane domains 5, 6, 11, 12 make the greatest contribution to forming the pore of the CFTR chloride channel. We used excised, inside-out patches from oocytes expressing CFTR with alanine-scanning mutagenesis in amino acids in TM6 and TM12 to probe CFTR pore structure with four blockers: glibenclamide (Glyb), glipizide (Glip), tolbutamide (Tolb), and Meglitinide. Glyb and Glip blocked wildtype (WT)-CFTR in a voltage-, time-, and concentration-dependent manner. At V (M) = -120 mV with symmetrical 150 mM Cl(-) solution, fractional block of WT-CFTR by 50 muM Glyb and 200 muM Glip was 0.64 +/- 0.03 (n = 7) and 0.48 +/- 0.02 (n = 7), respectively. The major effects on block by Glyb and Glip were found with mutations at F337, S341, I344, M348, and V350 of TM6. Under similar conditions, fractional block of WT-CFTR by 300 muM Tolb was 0.40 +/- 0.04. Unlike Glyb, Glip, and Meglitinide, block by Tolb lacked time-dependence (n = 7). We then tested the effects of alanine mutations in TM12 on block by Glyb and Glip; the major effects were found at N1138, T1142, V1147, N1148, S1149, S1150, I1151, and D1152. From these experiments, we infer that amino acids F337, S341, I344, M348, and V350 of TM6 face the pore when the channel is in the open state, while the amino acids of TM12 make less important contributions to pore function. These data also suggest that the region between F337 and S341 forms the narrow part of the CFTR pore.
