Abstract [show]
Multidrug efflux pumps, such as P-glycoprotein (ABCB1), present major barriers to the success of chemotherapy in a number of clinical settings. Molecular details of the multidrug efflux process by ABCB1 remain elusive, in particular, the interdomain communication associated with bioenergetic coupling. The present investigation has focused on the role of transmembrane helix 12 (TM12) in the multidrug efflux process of ABCB1. Cysteine residues were introduced at various positions within TM12, and their effect on ATPase activity, nucleotide binding, and drug interaction were assessed. Mutation of several residues within TM12 perturbed the maximal ATPase activity of ABCB1, and the underlying cause was a reduction in basal (i.e., drug-free) hydrolysis of the nucleotide. Two of the mutations (L976C and F978C) were found to reduce the binding of [gamma-(32)P]-azido-ATP to ABCB1. In contrast, the A980C mutation within TM12 enhanced the rate of ATP hydrolysis; once again, this was due to modified basal activity. Several residues also caused reductions in the potency of stimulation of ATP hydrolysis by nicardipine and vinblastine, although the effects were independent of changes in drug binding per se. Overall, the results indicate that TM12 plays a key role in the progression of the ATP hydrolytic cycle in ABCB1, even in the absence of the transported substrate.

Abstract [show]
Describing the molecular details of the multidrug efflux process of ABCB1, in particular the interdomain communication associated with bioenergetic coupling, continues to prove difficult. A number of investigations to date have implicated transmembrane helix 12 (TM12) in mediating communication between the transmembrane domains and nucleotide-binding domains (NBDs) of ABCB1. The present investigation further addressed the role of TM12 in ABCB1 by characterizing its topography during the multidrug efflux process with the use of cysteine-directed mutagenesis. Cysteines were introduced at various positions along TM12 and assessed for their ability to covalently bind thiol-reactive fluorescent probes with differing physiochemical properties. By analysing each isoform in the basal, ATP-bound and posthydrolytic states, it was possible to determine how the local environment of TM12 alters during the catalytic cycle. Labelling with hydrophobic CM and zwitterionic BM was extensive throughout the helix in the basal, prehydrolytic and posthydrolytic states, suggesting that TM12 is in a predominantly hydrophobic environment. Overall, the carboxy region (intracellular half) of TM12 appeared to be more responsive to changes in the catalytic state of the protein than the amino region (extracellular half). Thus, the carboxy region of TM12 is suggested to be responsive to nucleotide binding and hydrolysis at the NBDs and therefore directly involved in interdomain communication. This data can be reconciled with an atomic-scale model of human ABCB1. Taken together, these results indicate that TM12 plays a key role in the progression of the ATP hydrolytic cycle in ABCB1 and, in particular, in coordinating conformational changes between the NBDs and transmembrane domains.

62 The C-terminal stretch (V988C-F994C) was also capable of interacting with CM, albeit with lower values of Lext, in the range 50-60%. Login to comment
85 This hypothesis is supported by the fact that F994C, which is proximal to the membrane surface, has a considerably greater Lext (111 ± 35%) for BM than the near neighbours examined. Login to comment
89 Only one residue displayed avid labelling with FM, namely F994C (Lext of 129 ± 24%), and this is at the extreme carboxy-end of TM12, in proximity to the aqueous environment. Login to comment

168 Clearly, F994C undergoes considerable changes in accessibility, suggestive of a move from a relatively hydrophilic region to a more lipophilic one as ABCB1 binds and hydrolyses nucleotide. Login to comment
