| Popis: | The epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) regulates blood pressure by fine-tuning distal nephron sodium reabsorption. Our previous work has shown that ENaC gating is regulated by anionic phospholipid phosphates, including phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2). The PIP2-dependent regulation of ENaC is mediated by the myristoylated alanine-rich protein kinase C substrate-like protein-1 (MLP-1). MLP-1 binds to and is a reversible source of PIP2at the plasma membrane. We examined MLP-1 regulation of ENaC in distal convoluted tubule clonal cell line DCT-15 cells. Wild-type MLP-1 runs at an apparent molecular mass of 52 kDa despite having a predicted molecular mass of 21 kDa. Native MLP-1 consists of several distinct structural elements: an effector domain that is highly positively charged, sequesters PIP2, contains serines that are the target of PKC, and controls MLP-1 association with the membrane; a myristoylation domain that promotes association with the membrane; and a multiple homology 2 domain of previously unknown function. To further examine MLP-1 in DCT-15 cells, we constructed several MLP-1 mutants: WT, a full-length wild-type protein; S3A, three substitutions in the effector domain to prevent phosphorylation; S3D mimicked constitutive phosphorylation by replacing three serines with aspartates; and GA replaced the myristoylation site glycine with alanine, so GA could not be myristoylated. Each mutant was tagged with either NH2-terminal 3XFLAG or COOH-terminal mCherry or V5. Transfection with MLP mutants modified ENaC activity in DCT-15 cells: activity was highest in S3A and lowest in S3D, and the activity after transfection with either construct was significantly different from WT. In Western blots, when transfected with 3XFLAG-tagged MLP-1 mutants, the expression of the full length of MLP-1 at 52 kDa increased in mutant S3A-MLP-1-transfected DCT-15 cells and decreased in S3D-MLP-1-transfected DCT-15 cells. Several lower molecular mass bands were also detected that correspond to potential presumptive calpain cleavage products. Confocal imaging shows that the different mutants localize in different subcellular compartments consistent with their preferred location in the membrane or in the cytosol. Activation of protein kinase C increases phosphorylation of endogenous MLP-1 and reduces ENaC activity. Our results suggest a complicated role for proteolytic processing in MLP-1 regulation of ENaC. |
