Reanalysis of structure/function correlations in the region of transmembrane segments 4 and 5 of the rabbit sodium/glucose cotransporter.
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications(2009)
摘要
The predicted topology of the mammalian high-affinity sodium/glucose cotransporter (SGLT1), in the region surrounding transmembrane segments 4 and 5, disagrees with the recent published crystal structure of bacterial SGLT from Vibrio parahaemolyticus (vSGLT). To investigate this issue further, 38 residues from I143 to A180 in the N-terminal half of rabbit SGLT1 were each replaced with cysteine and then expressed in COS-7 cells or Xenopus laevis oocytes. The membrane orientations of the substituted cysteines were determined by treatment with the thiol-specific reagent N-Biotinoylaminoethyl methanethiosulfonate (biotin-MTSEA), combined with the membrane impermeant thiol-specific reagent sodium (2-sulfonatoethyl) methanethiosulfonate (MTSES). The present results combined with previous structure/function studies of SGLT1, suggest that transmembrane domain (TM) 4 of mammalian SGLT1 extends from residue 143–171 and support the topology observed in the crystal structure of vSGLT.
