Functional role of arginine 375 in transmembrane helix 6 of multidrug resistance protein 4 (MRP4/ABCC4).
Mol Pharmacol. 2008 Oct;74(4):964-71. Epub 2008 Jul 8., [PMID:18612080]
Abstract [show]
Multidrug resistance protein (MRP) 4 transports a variety of endogenous and xenobiotic organic anions. MRP4 is widely expressed in the body and specifically localized to the renal apical proximal tubule cell membrane, where it mediates the excretion of these compounds into urine. To characterize the MRP4 substrate-binding site, the amino acids Phe368, Phe369, Glu374, Arg375, and Glu378 of transmembrane helix 6, and Arg998 of helix 12, localized in the intracellular half of the central pore, were mutated into the corresponding amino acids of MRP1 and MRP2. Membrane vesicles isolated from human embryonic kidney 293 cells overexpressing these mutants showed significantly reduced methotrexate (MTX) and cGMP transport activity compared with vesicles that expressed wild-type MRP4. The only exception was substitution of Arg375 with serine, which had no effect on cGMP transport but significantly decreased the affinity of MTX. Substitution of the same amino acid with a positively charged lysine returned the MTX affinity to that of the wild type. Furthermore, MTX inhibition of MRP4-mediated cGMP transport was noncompetitive, and the inhibition constant was increased by introduction of the R375S mutation. A homology model of MRP4 showed that Arg375 and Arg998 face right into the central aqueous pore of MRP4. We conclude that positively charged amino acids in transmembrane helices 6 and 12 contribute to the MRP4 substrate-binding pocket.

Phenylalanine 368 of multidrug resistance-associated protein 4 (MRP4/ABCC4) plays a crucial role in substrate-specific transport activity.
Biochem Pharmacol. 2012 Aug 1;84(3):366-73. Epub 2012 Apr 21., [PMID:22542979]
Abstract [show]
Multidrug resistance-associated protein 4 (MRP4) is a membrane transporter that mediates the cellular efflux of a wide range of anionic drugs and endogenous molecules. MRP4 transport can influence the pharmacokinetics of drugs and their metabolites, therefore more knowledge about the molecular determinants important for its transport function would be of relevance. Here, we substituted amino acids Phe(368), Trp(995), and Arg(998) with conservative or non-conservative residues, and determined the effect on transport of the model substrates estradiol 17-beta-d-glucuronide (E(2)17betaG), cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), methotrexate (MTX), and folic acid into membrane vesicles isolated from baculovirus transduced HEK293 cells overexpressing the mutant MRP4 proteins. This revealed that all Arg(998) mutations appeared to be deleterious, whereas the effect of a Phe(368) or Trp(995) replacement was dependent on the amino acid introduced and the substrate studied. Substitution of Phe(368) with Trp (F368W) induced a gain-of-function of E(2)17betaG transport and a loss-of-function of MTX transport, which could not be attributed to an altered substrate binding. Moreover, we did not observe any modification in ATP or ADP handling for F368W. These results, in combination with docking of substrates in a homology model of MRP4 in the inward- and outward-facing conformation, suggest that Phe(368) and Trp(995) do not play an important role in the initial binding of substrates. They, however, might interact with the substrates during rearrangement of helixes for substrate translocation, funneling the substrates to the exit site in the outward-facing conformation.
