CFTR: effect of ICL2 and ICL4 amino acids in close spatial proximity on the current properties of the channel.
J Cyst Fibros. 2013 Dec;12(6):737-45. doi: 10.1016/j.jcf.2013.02.002. Epub 2013 Mar 9., [PMID:23478129]

Abstract [show]
BACKGROUND: CFTR is the only ABC transporter functioning as a chloride (Cl(-)) channel. We studied molecular determinants, which might distinguish CFTR from standard ABC transporters, and focused on the interface formed by the intracellular loops from the membrane spanning domains. METHODS: Residues from ICL2 and ICL4 in close proximity were targeted, and their involvement in the functioning of CFTR was studied by whole cell patch clamp recording. RESULTS: We identified 2 pairs of amino acids, at the extremity of the bundle formed by the four intracellular loops, whose mutation i) decreases the Cl(-) current of CFTR (couple E267-K1060) or ii) increases it with a change of the electrophysiological signature (couple S263-V1056). CONCLUSIONS: These results highlight the critical role of these ICL residues in the assembly of the different domains and/or in the Cl(-) permeation pathway of CFTR.

72 In order to change the properties of the side chains, we replaced each amino acid by a small, uncharged residue (mutants E267A-CFTR and K1060A-CFTR) or by an oppositely charged residue (mutants E267R-CFTR, K1060E-CFTR). Login to comment
73 We also studied the double mutant E267R-K1060E-CFTR, where the negative and positive charges are inverted. Login to comment

107 For K1060, irrespective of the replacement of the positively charged side chain by a small uncharged residue (K1060A mutant) or a negatively charged residue (K1060E mutant), the inward and outward Cl-current densities were 50-60% lower than the corresponding Cl-currents elicited by wt channels but similar to that of the E267A mutant. Login to comment
108 Finally, with the "inverted" double mutant (E267R-K1060E) the recorded Cl-current density was not significantly different from wt CFTR. Login to comment
141 Finally, since the interchange of the two charged residues (E267R-K1060E) did not modify the chloride current density, one may hypothesize that the presence of an electrostatic interaction between the two amino acids is more critical than their respective positions. Login to comment

An electrostatic interaction at the tetrahelix bundle promotes phosphorylation-dependent cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) channel opening.

Abstract [show]
The CFTR channel is an essential mediator of electrolyte transport across epithelial tissues. CFTR opening is promoted by ATP binding and dimerization of its two nucleotide binding domains (NBDs). Phosphorylation of its R domain (e.g. by PKA) is also required for channel activity. The CFTR structure is unsolved but homology models of the CFTR closed and open states have been produced based on the crystal structures of evolutionarily related ABC transporters. These models predict the formation of a tetrahelix bundle of intracellular loops (ICLs) during channel opening. Here we provide evidence that residues E267 in ICL2 and K1060 in ICL4 electrostatically interact at the interface of this predicted bundle to promote CFTR opening. Mutations or a thiol modifier that introduced like charges at these two positions substantially inhibited ATP-dependent channel opening. ATP-dependent activity was rescued by introducing a second site gain of function (GOF) mutation that was previously shown to promote ATP-dependent and ATP-independent opening (K978C). Conversely, the ATP-independent activity of the K978C GOF mutant was inhibited by charge- reversal mutations at positions 267 or 1060 either in the presence or absence of NBD2. The latter result indicates that this electrostatic interaction also promotes unliganded channel opening in the absence of ATP binding and NBD dimerization. Charge-reversal mutations at either position markedly reduced the PKA sensitivity of channel activation implying strong allosteric coupling between bundle formation and R domain phosphorylation. These findings support important roles of the tetrahelix bundle and the E267-K1060 electrostatic interaction in phosphorylation-dependent CFTR gating.

96 The charge-reversal mutations (E267R and K1060E) at these positions clearly had the most dramatic effects on CFTR activity (the E267K mutation also markedly inhibited CFTR activity; see Fig. 5). Login to comment
102 CFTR Gating Mechanism 30366 JOURNAL OF BIOLOGICAL CHEMISTRY VOLUME 289ߦNUMBER 44ߦOCTOBER 31, 2014 at SEMMELWEIS UNIV OF MEDICINE on December 4, Fig. provides indirect but persuasive evidence that the E267R and K1060E charge-reversal mutations reduced channel activity primarily by reducing the rate of channel opening rather than by shortening the open channel bursts or decreasing the single channel conductance.

124 These micropatch results indicate that the E267R and K1060E charge-reversal mutants have exceptionally low Pos under control and PKI-treated conditions (10-50-fold lower than WT-CFTR) primarily because they have very low channel opening rates, not abnormally brief open channel bursts.

143 Here we combined one of these GOF mutations with the E267R and K1060E mutations to test: (i) if a GOF mutation could rescue the ATP-dependent channel activities of the E267 and K1060 charge-reversal mutants and (ii) if bundle formation and the predicted electrostatic interaction also facilitate channel opening in the absence of ATP binding or NBD dimerization.

260 Interestingly, Billet et al. (27) did report that a double mutant in which the charges were swapped between these sites (E267R/K1060E) behaved like wild type CFTR in their assay, which is consistent with an electrostatic interaction between these residues that impacts CFTR activity.

290 The E267-K1060 Interaction Also Promotes CFTR Channel Opening in the Absence of ATP Binding or NBD Dimerization- Combining a previously reported GOF mutation (K978C) with the E267R or K1060E bundle mutations revealed that the latter mutations also inhibit ATP-free channel activity both in the presence and absence of NBD2 (i.e. for the èc;1198-CFTR truncation construct).

294 Conversely, each of the E267R and K1060E mutations substantially reduced the fractional ATP-independent currents exhibited by the full-length K978C-CFTR construct and also reduced the control currents and increased the relative stimulation by potentiators for the NBD2-deletion construct bearing the GOF mutation (K978C/ èc;1198-CFTR).

302 The E267R and K1060E mutations in ICL2 and ICL4 both strongly reduced the PKA sensitivity of channel activation in two ways. Login to comment
313 The former interpretation seems likely given that wild type CFTR channels are maximally active at a PKA concentration (200 units/ml) that only partially activated the single E267R and K1060E mutants. Login to comment
