Abstract
High-affinity K+ (HKT) gene family is regulated the transport of Na+ and maintain the balance between Na+ and K+ in the process of plant growth, development and response to abiotic stress. Despite this fact, systemic and comprehensive studies on HKT in multiply plants remains unknown. A total of 29 HKT genes distributed on nine species were identified. Phylogenetic tree analysis results indicated that HKT genes were divided into five homology subfamilies. Combining structural analysis with protein contains five highly conservative motifs, HKT family has similar gene structures and special gene characteristics. Finally, the expression patterns of HKT showed two different dramatic changes in different organs and tissues under different salt stress in multiply plants. This study has many implications for research into the comparative genomics analysis of HTK gene family, which revealed regulation mechanism of HKT genes, is valuable for understanding development and response to abiotic stress in plant.

Abstract
The affinity for K+ of silkworm nerve Na+/K+-ATPase is markedly lower than that of mammalian Na+/K+-ATPase (Homareda 2010). In order to obtain clues on the molecular basis of the difference in K+ affinities, we cloned cDNAs of silkworm (Bombyx mori) nerve Na+/K+-ATPase α and β subunits, and analyzed the deduced amino acid sequences. The molecular masses of the α and β subunits were presumed to be 111.5 kDa with ten transmembrane segments and 37.7 kDa with a single transmembrane segment, respectively. The α subunit showed 75% identity and 93% homology with the pig Na+/K+-ATPase α1 subunit. On the other hand, the amino acid identity of the β subunit with mammalian counterparts was as low as 30%. Cloned α and β cDNAs were co-expressed in cultured silkworm ovary-derived cells, BM-N cells, which lack endogenous Na+/K+-ATPase. Na+/K+-ATPase expressed in the cultured cells showed a low affinity for K+ and a high affinity for Na+, characteristic of the silkworm nerve Na+/K+-ATPase. These results suggest that the β subunit is responsible for the affinity for K+ of Na+/K+-ATPase.

Abstract
Cellular differentiation and programmed cell death are tightly controlled to maintain tissue homeostasis and proper organ function. In a screen for apoptosis specific gene products, we isolated an immediate early apoptosis response gene from myelomonocytic stem cells that appears to play a key regulatory role in a number of cell types and may be of particular importance in cells of the central nervous system. The gene's 28 kDa protein product interacts with the C-terminal ectodomain of the Na+/K+-ATPase (NKA) beta 1 subunit and was therefore named NKIP (NKA Interacting Protein). NKIP is coexpressed with NKA, localizes to lysosomes and the endoplasmic reticulum and is predominantly expressed in excitable tissues including polarized epithelia and the central nervous system. NKIP has been characterized as an endogenous suppressor of the NKA as reduction of NKIP in PC12 cells significantly increases NKA activity. In pluripotent NT2 progenitor cells, NKIP induced rapidly K+-level-dependent cell death. NKIP overexpression induced growth factor-independent neurite outgrowth, which was associated with MEK-independent phosphorylation of the transcription factor ERK1/2. Thus, we have identified NKIP as an important novel protein that interacts to the NKA complex, influencing cellular ion balance, induction of apoptosis and neuronal differentiation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The potassium-competitive acid blockers (P-CABs), comprise a new, innovative group of competitive and reversible inhibitors of the gastric H+/K+ ATPase. Our aim was to identify sites of expression of the H+/K+ ATPase that are potential targets of these compounds by examining the expression profile of the gastric H+/K+ ATPase in the human body from a broad range of tissues. MATERIAL AND METHODS Expression profiling was done by quantitative mRNA analysis (TaqMan PCR). Tissues that were mRNA-positive for the alpha subunit were investigated further by Western blot and immunohistochemistry (IHC) for the presence of gastric H+/K+ ATPase protein. RESULTS In addition to the very high expression levels in the stomach, the adrenal gland, cerebellum and pancreas gave unexpectedly positive mRNA signals for the alpha subunit of gastric H +/K+ ATPase. However, they were negative for mRNA of the beta subunit, and Western blot and IHC were negative for alpha and beta subunit protein. Another group of tissues with low alpha subunit mRNA expression including the frontal cortex, cortex grey matter, testis, thymus and larynx submucosa were also found negative for both alpha and beta subunit protein. In contrast to mouse kidney, no gastric H+/K+ ATPase could be detected in human kidney. CONCLUSIONS We therefore conclude that the only organ in humans expressing significant levels of the P-CAB target gastric H+/K+ ATPase is the stomach.

Abstract
The primary sequence of non-gastric H,K-ATPase differs much more between species than that of Na,K-ATPase or gastric H,K-ATPase. To investigate whether this causes species-dependent differences in enzymatic properties, we co-expressed the catalytic subunit of human non-gastric H,K-ATPase in Sf9 cells with the beta(1) subunit of rat Na,K-ATPase and compared its properties with those of the rat enzyme (Swarts et al., J. Biol. Chem. 280, 33115-33122, 2005). Maximal ATPase activity was obtained with NH(4)(+) as activating cation. The enzyme was also stimulated by Na(+), but in contrast to the rat enzyme, hardly by K(+). SCH 28080 inhibited the NH(4)(+)-stimulated activity of the human enzyme much more potently than that of the rat enzyme. The steady-state phosphorylation level of the human enzyme decreased with increasing pH, [K(+)], and [Na(+)] and nearly doubled in the presence of oligomycin. Oligomycin increased the sensitivity of the phosphorylated intermediate to ADP, demonstrating that it inhibited the conversion of E(1)P to E(2)P. All three cations stimulated the dephosphorylation rate dose-dependently. Our studies support a role of the human enzyme in H(+)/Na(+) and/or H(+)/NH(4)(+) transport but not in Na(+)/K(+) transport.

Abstract
Gastric acid secretion is a complex process that requires hormonal, neuronal, or calcium-sensing receptor activation for insertion of pumps into the apical surface of the parietal cell. Activation of any or all these pathways causes the parietal cell to secrete concentrated acid with a pH at or close to 1. This acidic fluid combines with enzymes that are secreted from neighbouring chief cells and passes out of the gland up through a mucous gel layer covering the surface of the stomach producing a final intragastric pH of less than 4 during the active phase of acid secretion. Defects in either the mucosal barrier or in the regulatory mechanisms that modulate the secretory pathways will result in erosion of the barrier and ulcerations of the stomach or esophagus. The entire process of acid secretion relies on activation of the catalytic cycle of the gastric H+,K+-ATPase, resulting in the secretion of acid into the parietal cell canaliculus, with K+ being the important and rate-limiting ion in this activation process. In addition to K+ as a rate limiter for acid production, Cl- secretion via an apical channel must also occur. In this review we present a discussion of the mechanics of acid secretion and a discussion of recently identified transporter proteins and receptors. Included is a discussion of some of the recent candidates for the apical K' recycling channel, as well as two recently identified apical proteins (NHE-3, PAT-1), and the newly characterized calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR). We hope that this review will give additional insight into the complex process of acid secretion.

Abstract
The Na,K-pump was discovered about 50 years ago. Since then there has been a methodic investigation of its structure and functional characteristics. The development of the Albers-Post model for the transport cycle was a milestone that provided the framework for detailed understanding of the transport process. The pump is composed of 2 subunits that exist in the membrane as an alphabeta heterodimer. All known enzymatic functions of the pump occur through the alpha subunit. Although necessary for activity, the complete role of the beta subunit is not understood fully. Numerous studies have established that the alphabeta protomer is the minimal functional unit needed to perform the Albers-Post reaction cycle. However, higher orders of aggregation [(alphabeta)n] are commonly detected. There is little evidence that oligomerization has functional consequence for ion transport. The Na+,K+-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) is a member of the P-type ATPase family of transporters. Proteins within this family have common amino acid sequence motifs that share functional characteristics and structure. Low-resolution 3-dimensional reconstruction of 2-dimensional crystal diffractions provide evidence for the similarity in tertiary structure of the alpha subunit and the Ca2+ATPase (a closely related P-type ATPase). The spatial location of the beta subunit also is obvious in these reconstructions. Recent high-resolution reconstructions from 3-dimensional crystals of the Ca2+ATPase provide structural details at the atomic level. It now is possible to interpret structurally some of the key steps in the Albers-Post reaction. Some of these high-resolution interpretations are translatable to the Na+,K+-ATPase, but a high-resolution structure of the Na,K-pump is needed for the necessary details of those aspects that are unique to this transporter.

Abstract
Potassium (K+) ions are critical for the activation and catalytic cycle of the gastric H+,K+-ATPase, resulting in the secretion of hydrochloric acid into the parietal cell canaliculus. As both symptom, severity and esophageal mucosal damage in gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) are related to the degree of acid exposure, K+ is a logical target for approaches to inhibit acid production. The probable K+ binding site on the gastric H+,K+-ATPase has recently been described and studies are elucidating how K+ activates the enzyme. K+ channels in the apical membrane of the parietal cell are implicated in the recycling of K+ and, to date, three potential K+ channels (KCNQ1, Kir2.1 and Kir4.1) have been identified. The channels represent theoretical sites for agents to control acid secretion but it will be difficult to develop selective blockers. An alternative strategy is to prevent K+ from activating gastric H+,K+-ATPase; the potassium-competitive acid blocker (P-CAB) class inhibits acid secretion by binding at or near the K+ binding site. Ongoing research is further defining the role of K+ in the functioning of the gastric H+,K+-ATPase, as well as determining the clinical utility of agents directed toward this important cation.

Abstract
Although cardiac glycosides have been used as drugs for more than 2 centuries and their primary target, the sodium pump (Na,K-ATPase), has already been known for 4 decades, their exact binding site is still elusive. In our efforts to define the molecular basis of digitalis glycosides binding we started from the fact that a closely related enzyme, the gastric H,K-ATPase, does not bind glycosides like ouabain. Previously, we showed that a chimera of these two enzymes, in which only the M3-M4 and M5-M6 hairpins were of Na,K-ATPase, bound ouabain with high affinity (Koenderink, J. B., Hermsen, H. P. H., Swarts, H. G. P., Willems, P. H. G. M., and De Pont, J. J. H. H. M. (2000) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 97, 11209-11214). We also demonstrated that only three amino acids (Phe(783), Thr(797), and Asp(804)) present in the M5-M6 hairpin of Na,K-ATPase were sufficient to confer high affinity ouabain binding to a chimera which contained in addition the M3-M4 hairpin of Na,K-ATPase (Qiu, L. Y., Koenderink, J. B., Swarts, H. G., Willems, P. H., and De Pont, J. J. H. H. M. (2003) J. Biol. Chem. 278, 47240-47244). To further pinpoint the ouabain-binding site here we used a chimera-based loss-of-function strategy and identified four amino acids (Glu(312), Val(314), Ile(315), Gly(319)), all present in M4, as being important for ouabain binding. In a final gain-of-function study we showed that a gastric H,K-ATPase that contained Glu(312), Val(314), Ile(315), Gly(319), Phe(783), Thr(797), and Asp(804) of Na,K-ATPase bound ouabain with the same affinity as the native enzyme. Based on the E(2)P crystal structure of Ca(2+)-ATPase we constructed a homology model for the ouabain-binding site of Na,K-ATPase involving all seven amino acids as well as several earlier postulated amino acids.

Abstract
We used the baculovirus/Sf9 expression system to gain new information on the mechanistic properties of the rat non-gastric H,K-ATPase, an enzyme that is implicated in potassium homeostasis. The alpha2-subunit of this enzyme (HKalpha2) required a beta-subunit for ATPase activity thereby showing a clear preference for NaKbeta1 over NaKbeta3 and gastric HKbeta. NH4(+), K+, and Na+ maximally increased the activity of HKalpha2-NaKbeta1 to 24.0, 14.2, and 5.0 micromol P(i) x mg(-1) protein x h(-1), respectively. The enzyme was inhibited by relatively high concentrations of ouabain and SCH 28080, whereas it was potently inhibited by oligomycin. From the phosphorylation level in the presence of oligomycin and the maximal NH4(+)-stimulated ATPase activity, a turnover number of 20,000 min(-1) was determined. All three cations decreased the steady-state phosphorylation level and enhanced the dephosphorylation rate, disfavoring the hypothesis that Na+ can replace H+ as the activating cation. The potency with which vanadate inhibited the cation-activated enzyme decreased in the order K+ > NH4(+) > Na+, indicating that K+ is a stronger E2 promoter than NH4(+), whereas in the presence of Na+ the enzyme is in the E1 form. For K+ and NH4(+), the E2 to E1 conformational equilibrium correlated with their efficacy in the ATPase reaction, indicating that here the transition from E2 to E1 is rate-limiting. Conversely, the low maximal ATPase activity with Na+ is explained by a poor stimulatory effect on the dephosphorylation rate. These data show that NH4(+) can replace K+ with similar affinity but higher efficacy as an extracellular activating cation in rat nongastric H,K-ATPase.

Abstract
A dynamic equilibrium between multiple sorting pathways maintains polarized distribution of plasma membrane proteins in epithelia. To identify sorting pathways for plasma membrane delivery of the gastric H,K-ATPase beta subunit in polarized cells, the protein was expressed as a yellow fluorescent protein N-terminal construct in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) and LLC-PK1 cells. Confocal microscopy and surface-selective biotinylation showed that 80% of the surface amount of the beta subunit was present on the apical membrane in LLC-PK1 cells, but only 40% was present in MDCK cells. Nondenaturing gel electrophoresis of the isolated membranes showed that a significant fraction of the H,K-ATPase beta subunits associate with the endogenous Na,K-ATPase alpha(1) subunits in MDCK but not in LLC-PK cells. Hence, co-sorting of the H,K-ATPase beta subunit with the Na,K-ATPase alpha(1) subunit to the basolateral membrane in MDCK cells may determine the differential distribution of the beta subunit in these two cell types. The major fraction of unassociated monomeric H,K-ATPase beta subunits is detected in the apical membrane. Quantitative analysis showed that half of the apical pool of the beta subunit originates directly from the trans-Golgi network and the other half from transcytosis via the basolateral membrane in MDCK cells. A minor fraction of monomeric beta subunits detected in the basolateral membrane represents a transient pool of the protein that undergoes transcytosis to the apical membrane. Hence, the steady state distribution of the H,K-ATPase beta subunit in polarized cells depends on the balance between (a) direct sorting from the trans-Golgi network, (b) secondary associative sorting with a partner protein, and (c) transcytosis.

Abstract
Ouabain is a glycoside that binds to and inhibits the action of Na+,K+-ATPase. Little is known, however, about the specific requirements of the protein surface for glycoside binding. Using chimeras of gastric H+,K+-ATPase and Na+,K+-ATPase, we demonstrated previously that the combined presence of transmembrane hairpins M3-M4 and M5-M6 of Na+,K+-ATPase in a backbone of H+,K+-ATPase (HN34/56) is both required and sufficient for high affinity ouabain binding. Since replacement of transmembrane hairpin M3-M4 by the N terminus up to transmembrane segment 3 (HNN3/56) resulted in a low affinity ouabain binding, hairpin M5-M6 seems to be essential for ouabain binding. To assess which residues of M5-M6 are required for ouabain action, we divided this transmembrane hairpin in seven parts and individually replaced these parts by the corresponding sequences of H+,K+-ATPase in chimera HN34/56. Three of these chimeras failed to bind ouabain following expression in Xenopus laevis oocytes. Altogether, these three chimeras contained 7 amino acids that were specific for Na+,K+-ATPase. Individual replacement of these 7 amino acids by the corresponding amino acids in H+,K+-ATPase revealed a dramatic loss of ouabain binding for F783Y, T797C, and D804E. As a proof of principle, the Na+,K+-ATPase equivalents of these 3 amino acids were introduced in different combinations in chimera HN34. The presence of all 3 amino acids appeared to be required for ouabain action. Docking of ouabain onto a three-dimensional-model of Na+,K+-ATPase suggests that Asp804, in contrast to Phe783 and Thr797, does not actually form part of the ouabain-binding pocket. Most likely, the presence of this amino acid is required for adopting of the proper conformation for ouabain binding.

Abstract
Na,K-ATPase and gastric and nongastric H,K-ATPases are the only P-type ATPases of higher organisms that are oligomeric and are associated with a beta subunit, which is obligatory for expression and function of enzymes. Topogenesis studies suggest that beta subunits have a fundamental and unique role in K+-transporting P-type ATPases in that they facilitate the correct membrane integration and packing of the catalytic a subunit of these P-type ATPases, which is necessary for their resistance to cellular degradation, their acquisition of functional properties, and their routing to the cell surface. In addition to this chaperone function, beta subunits also participate in the determination of intrinsic transport properties of Na,K- and H,K-ATPases. Increasing experimental evidence suggests that beta assembly is a highly ordered, beta isoform-specific process, which is mediated by multiple interaction sites that contribute in a coordinate, multistep process to the structural and functional maturation of Na,K- and H,K-ATPases.

Abstract
The Na,K-ATPase carries out the coupled functions of ATP hydrolysis and cation transport. These functions are performed by two distinct regions of the protein. ATP binding and hydrolysis is mediated by the large central cytoplasmic loop of about 430 amino-acids. Transmembrane cation transport is accomplished via coordination of the Na and K ions by side-chains of the amino-acids of several of the transmembrane segments. The way in which these two protein domains interact lies at the heart of the molecular mechanism of active transport, or ion pumping. We summarize evidence obtained from protein chemistry studies of the purified renal Na,K-ATPase and from bacterially expressed polypeptides which characterize these separate functions and point to various movements which may occur as the protein transits through its reaction cycle. We then describe recent work using heterologous expression of renal Na,K-ATPase in baculovirus-infected insect cells which provides a suitable system to characterize such protein motions and which can be employed to test specific models arising from recently acquired high resolution structural information on related ion pumps.

Abstract
The physiologic function of an ion transport protein is determined, in part, by its subcellular localization and by the cellular mechanisms that modulate its activity. The Na(+),K(+)-ATPase and the H(+),K(+)-ATPases are closely related members of the P-type family of ion transporting ATPases. Despite their homology, these pumps are sorted to different domains in polarized epithelial cells, and their enzymatic activities are subject to distinct regulatory pathways. The molecular signals responsible for these properties have begun to be elucidated. It appears that a complex array of inter- and intramolecular interactions govern trafficking, distribution, and catalytic capacities of these proteins.

Abstract
In this study we reveal regions of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase and H(+),K(+)-ATPase that are involved in cation selectivity. A chimeric enzyme in which transmembrane hairpin M5-M6 of H(+),K(+)-ATPase was replaced by that of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase was phosphorylated in the absence of Na(+) and showed no K(+)-dependent reactions. Next, the part originating from Na(+),K(+)-ATPase was gradually increased in the N-terminal direction. We demonstrate that chimera HN16, containing the transmembrane segments one to six and intermediate loops of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase, harbors the amino acids responsible for Na(+) specificity. Compared with Na(+),K(+)-ATPase, this chimera displayed a similar apparent Na(+) affinity, a lower apparent K(+) affinity, a higher apparent ATP affinity, and a lower apparent vanadate affinity in the ATPase reaction. This indicates that the E(2)K form of this chimera is less stable than that of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase, suggesting that it, like H(+),K(+)-ATPase, de-occludes K(+) ions very rapidly. Comparison of the structures of these chimeras with those of the parent enzymes suggests that the C-terminal 187 amino acids and the beta-subunit are involved in K(+) occlusion. Accordingly, chimera HN16 is not only a chimeric enzyme in structure, but also in function. On one hand it possesses the Na(+)-stimulated ATPase reaction of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase, while on the other hand it has the K(+) occlusion properties of H(+),K(+)-ATPase.

Abstract
Na(+),K(+)-ATPase and gastric H(+),K(+)-ATPase are two related enzymes that are responsible for active cation transport. Na(+), K(+)-ATPase activity is inhibited specifically by ouabain, whereas H(+),K(+)-ATPase is insensitive to this drug. Because it is not known which parts of the catalytic subunit of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase are responsible for ouabain binding, we prepared chimeras in which small parts of the alpha-subunit of H(+),K(+)-ATPase were replaced by their counterparts of the alpha(1)-subunit of rat Na(+),K(+)-ATPase. A chimeric enzyme in which transmembrane segments 5 and 6 of H(+), K(+)-ATPase were replaced by those of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase could form a phosphorylated intermediate, but hardly showed a K(+)-stimulated dephosphorylation reaction. When transmembrane segments 3 and 4 of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase were also included in this chimeric ATPase, K(+)-stimulated dephosphorylation became apparent. This suggests that there is a direct interaction between the hairpins M3-M4 and M5-M6. Remarkably, this chimeric enzyme, HN34/56, had obtained a high-affinity ouabain-binding site, whereas the rat Na(+), K(+)-ATPase, from which the hairpins originate, has a low affinity for ouabain. The low affinity of the rat Na(+),K(+)-ATPase previously had been attributed to the presence of two charged amino acids in the extracellular domain between M1 and M2. In the HN34/56 chimera, the M1/M2 loop, however, originates from H(+),K(+)-ATPase, which has two polar uncharged amino acids on this position. Placement of two charged amino acids in the M1/M2 loop of chimera HN34/56 results in a decreased ouabain affinity. This indicates that although the M1/M2 loop affects the ouabain affinity, binding occurs when the M3/M4 and M5/M6 hairpins of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase are present.

Abstract
A series of six different mutants (D804A, D804E, D804G, D804N, D804Q, and D804S) of aspartate 804 present in transmembrane segment 6 of the rat Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha(1)-subunit were prepared and expressed in Sf9 cells by use of the baculovirus expression system. In contrast to the wild-type enzyme all mutants except D804Q showed a very high Na(+)-ATPase activity, which was hardly further stimulated by the addition of K(+). The ATPase activity of the mutants was already nearly maximal at 10 microM ATP and most of them could be phosphorylated in the absence of Na(+) at pH 6.0 and 21 degrees C, suggesting that they strongly prefer the E(1) over the E(2) conformation. However, Na(+) dose-dependently lowered the steady-state phosphorylation level, as a consequence of the increased affinity for Na(+) in the dephosphorylation reaction of the mutants compared to the wild-type enzyme. Conversely, the affinity for K(+) in the dephosphorylation reaction was decreased for the mutants as compared to that for the wild-type enzyme. When the pH was increased or the temperature was decreased, the phosphorylation level of the mutants decreased and the Na(+) activation in the phosphorylation reaction became apparent. It is concluded that upon mutation of aspartate 804 the affinity of the cation-binding pocket is changed relatively in favor of Na(+) instead of K(+), as a consequence of which the enzyme has obtained a preference for the E(1) conformation.

Abstract
It is generally assumed that negatively charged residues present in the alpha-subunit of gastric H(+),K(+)-ATPase are involved in K(+) binding and transport. Despite the fact that there is no difference between various species regarding these negatively charged residues, it was observed that the apparent K(+) affinity of the pig enzyme was much lower than that of the rat H(+),K(+)-ATPase. By determining the K(+)-stimulated dephosphorylation reaction of the phosphorylated intermediate K(0.5) values for K(+) of 0.12+/-0.01 and 1.73+/-0.03 mM were obtained (ratio 14.4) for the rat and the pig enzyme, respectively. To investigate the reason for the observed difference in K(+) sensitivity, both enzymes originating from the gastric mucosa were either reconstituted in a similar lipid environment or expressed in Sf9 cells. After reconstitution in K(+)-permeable phosphatidylcholine/cholesterol liposomes K(0.5) values for K(+) of 0.16+/-0.01 and 0.35+/-0.05 mM for the rat and pig enzyme respectively were measured (ratio 2.2). After expression in Sf9 cells the pig gastric H(+),K(+)-ATPase still showed a 4.1 times lower K(+) sensitivity than that of the rat enzyme. This means that the difference in K(+) sensitivity of the rat and pig gastric H(+), K(+)-ATPase is not only due to a different lipid composition but also to the structure of either the alpha- or beta-subunit. Expression of hybrid enzymes in Sf9 cells showed that the difference in K(+) sensitivity between the rat and pig gastric H(+),K(+)-ATPase is primarily due to differences in the beta-subunit.

Abstract
The assembly of the beta-subunit of the gastric H-K-ATPase (HKbeta) with the alpha-subunit of the H-K-ATPase or the Na-K-ATPase (NaKalpha) was characterized with two anti-HKbeta monoclonal antibodies (MAbs). In fixed gastric oxyntic cells, in H-K-ATPase in vitro, and in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells transfected with HKbeta, MAb 2/2E6 was observed to bind to HKbeta only when interactions between alpha- and beta-subunits were disrupted by various denaturants. The epitope for MAb 2/2E6 was mapped to the tetrapeptide S(226)LHY(229) of the extracellular domain of HKbeta. The epitope for MAb 2G11 was mapped to the eight NH(2)-terminal amino acids of the cytoplasmic domain of HKbeta. In transfected MDCK cells, MAb 2G11 could immunoprecipitate HKbeta with alpha-subunits of the endogenous cell surface NaKalpha, as well as that from early in the biosynthetic pathway, whereas MAb 2/2E6 immunoprecipitated only a cohort of unassembled endoglycosidase H-sensitive HKbeta. In HKbeta-transfected LLC-PK(1) cells, significant immunofluorescent labeling of HKbeta at the cell surface could be detected without postfixation denaturation or in live cells, although a fraction of transfected HKbeta could also be coimmunoprecipitated with NaKalpha. Thus assembly of HKbeta with NaKalpha does not appear to be a stringent requirement for cell surface delivery of HKbeta in LLC-PK(1) cells but may be required in MDCK cells. In addition, endogenous posttranslational regulatory mechanisms to prevent hybrid alpha-beta heterodimer assembly appear to be compromised in transfected cultured renal epithelial cells. Finally, the extracellular epitope for assembly-sensitive MAb 2/2E6 may represent a region of HKbeta that is associated with alpha-beta interaction.
