Susceptibility of ?1 Na+-K+ pump subunit to glutathionylation and oxidative inhibition depends on conformational state of pump.

ABSTRACT: Glutathionylation of cysteine 46 of the ?1 subunit of the Na(+)-K(+) pump causes pump inhibition. However, the crystal structure, known in a state analogous to an E2·2K(+)·P(i) configuration, indicates that the side chain of cysteine 46 is exposed to the lipid bulk phase of the membrane and not expected to be accessible to the cytosolic glutathione. We have examined whether glutathionylation depends on the conformational changes in the Na(+)-K(+) pump cycle as described by the Albers-Post scheme. We measured ?1 subunit glutathionylation and function of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase in membrane fragments and in ventricular myocytes. Signals for glutathionylation in Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase-enriched membrane fragments suspended in solutions that preferentially induce E1ATP and E1Na(3) conformations were much larger than signals in solutions that induce the E2 conformation. Ouabain further reduced glutathionylation in E2 and eliminated an increase seen with exposure to the oxidant peroxynitrite (ONOO(-)). Inhibition of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity after exposure to ONOO(-) was greater when the enzyme had been in the E1Na(3) than the E2 conformation. We exposed myocytes to different extracellular K(+) concentrations to vary the membrane potential and hence voltage-dependent conformational poise. K(+) concentrations expected to shift the poise toward E2 species reduced glutathionylation, and ouabain eliminated a ONOO(-)-induced increase. Angiotensin II-induced NADPH oxidase-dependent Na(+)-K(+) pump inhibition was eliminated by conditions expected to shift the poise toward the E2 species. We conclude that susceptibility of the ?1 subunit to glutathionylation depends on the conformational poise of the Na(+)-K(+) pump.

Project description:Glutathionylation of the Na(+)-K(+) pump's ?1-subunit is a key molecular mechanism of physiological and pathophysiological pump inhibition in cardiac myocytes. Its contribution to Na(+)-K(+) pump regulation in other tissues is unknown, and cannot be assumed given the dependence on specific ?-subunit isoform expression and receptor-coupled pathways. As Na(+)-K(+) pump activity is an important determinant of vascular tone through effects on [Ca(2+)]i, we have examined the role of oxidative regulation of the Na(+)-K(+) pump in mediating angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced increases in vascular reactivity. ?1-subunit glutathione adducts were present at baseline and increased by exposure to Ang II in rabbit aortic rings, primary rabbit aortic vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), and human arterial segments. In VSMCs, Ang II-induced glutathionylation was associated with marked reduction in Na(+)-K(+)ATPase activity, an effect that was abolished by the NADPH oxidase inhibitory peptide, tat-gp91ds. In aortic segments, Ang II-induced glutathionylation was associated with decreased K(+)-induced vasorelaxation, a validated index of pump activity. Ang II-induced oxidative inhibition of Na(+)-K(+) ATPase and decrease in K(+)-induced relaxation were reversed by preincubation of VSMCs and rings with recombinant FXYD3 protein that is known to facilitate deglutathionylation of ?1-subunit. Knock-out of FXYD1 dramatically decreased K(+)-induced relaxation in a mouse model. Attenuation of Ang II signaling in vivo by captopril (8 mg/kg/day for 7 days) decreased superoxide-sensitive DHE levels in the media of rabbit aorta, decreased ?1-subunit glutathionylation, and enhanced K(+)-induced vasorelaxation. Ang II inhibits the Na(+)-K(+) pump in VSMCs via NADPH oxidase-dependent glutathionylation of the pump's ?1-subunit, and this newly identified signaling pathway may contribute to altered vascular tone. FXYD proteins reduce oxidative inhibition of the Na(+)-K(+) pump and may have an important protective role in the vasculature under conditions of oxidative stress.

Project description:In this study the possible role of Na+ influx, arachidonate mediators and alpha-subunit phosphorylation in the stimulatory response of hepatic Na+/K(+)-ATPase to glucagon was examined. Glucagon stimulation of ouabain-sensitive 86Rb+ uptake in freshly isolated rat hepatocytes reached maximal levels in less than 1 min after hormone addition and was half-maximal (EC50) at a concentration of 2.4( +/- 1.3) x 10(-10) M. Analysis of the K(+)-dependence of this response indicates an effect on the apparent Vmax. for K+ with no significant change in the apparent kappa 0.5. Unlike monensin, glucagon stimulation of Na+/K(+)-ATPase-mediated transport activity was not associated with an increase in 22Na+ influx. This indicates that the stimulation of Na+/K(+)-ATPase by glucagon is not secondary to an increase in Na+ influx. A role for arachidonate mediators in this effect also appears unlikely because neither basal nor glucagon-stimulated ouabain-sensitive 86Rb+ uptake was significantly affected by supramaximal concentrations of cyclo-oxygenase, lipoxygenase, cytochrome p-450 or phospholipase A2 inhibitors. To study the possible role of protein kinase-mediated phosphorylation in the stimulation of ouabain-sensitive 86Rb uptake, hepatocytes were metabolically radiolabelled with [32P]P(i), Glucagon stimulated incorporation of 32P into a 95 kDa phosphoprotein that comigrates with Na+/K(+)-ATPase alpha-subunit immunoreactivity in two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. The alpha-subunit could be immunoprecipitated from detergent-solubilized particulate fractions of hepatocytes using an anti-(rat kidney Na+/K(+)-ATPase) serum. When hepatocytes were metabolically radiolabelled with [32P]P(i), the immunoprecipitated alpha-subunit contained 32P. Glucagon increased the incorporation of 32P into the immunoprecipitated subunit by 197 +/- 21% (n = 6). Similar results were observed with a rabbit anti-peptide serum ('anti-LEAVE' serum) prepared against an amino acid sequence in the alpha-subunit. The EC50 for glucagon-stimulated phosphorylation of the alpha-subunit (approximately 1 x 10(-10) M) was very close to that for glucagon stimulation of ouabain-sensitive 86Rb+ uptake. In conclusion, it appears that glucagon stimulation of hepatic Na+/K(+)-ATPase-mediated transport activity is not secondary to increases in Na+ influx or changes in the levels of an arachidonate mediator. The data provide support for the hypothesis that glucagon stimulation of Na(+)-pump activity in hepatocytes may be related to protein kinase-mediated changes in the phosphorylation state of the alpha-subunit.
