Abstract
Aldosterone exerts profound effects on renal and cardiovascular physiology. In the kidney, aldosterone acts to preserve electrolyte and acid-base balance in response to changes in dietary sodium (Na+ ) or potassium (K+ ) intake. These physiological actions, principally through activation of mineralocorticoid receptors (MRs), have important effects particularly in patients with renal and cardiovascular disease as demonstrated by multiple clinical trials. Multiple factors, be they genetic, humoral, dietary, or otherwise, can play a role in influencing the rate of aldosterone synthesis and secretion from the adrenal cortex. Normally, aldosterone secretion and action respond to dietary Na+ intake. In the kidney, the distal nephron and collecting duct are the main targets of aldosterone and MR action, which stimulates Na+ absorption in part via the epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC), the principal channel responsible for the fine-tuning of Na+ balance. Our understanding of the regulatory factors that allow aldosterone, via multiple signaling pathways, to function properly clearly implicates this hormone as central to many pathophysiological effects that become dysfunctional in disease states. Numerous pathologies that affect blood pressure (BP), electrolyte balance, and overall cardiovascular health are due to abnormal secretion of aldosterone, mutations in MR, ENaC, or effectors and modulators of their action. Study of the mechanisms of these pathologies has allowed researchers and clinicians to create novel dietary and pharmacological targets to improve human health. This article covers the regulation of aldosterone synthesis and secretion, receptors, effector molecules, and signaling pathways that modulate its action in the kidney. We also consider the role of aldosterone in disease and the benefit of mineralocorticoid antagonists. © 2023 American Physiological Society. Compr Physiol 13:4409-4491, 2023.

Abstract
The colon has large capacities for K+ absorption and K+ secretion, but its role in maintaining K+ homeostasis is often overlooked. For many years, passive diffusion and/or solvent drag were thought to be the primary mechanisms for K+ absorption in human and animal colon. However, it is now clear that apical H+ ,K+ -ATPase, in coordination with basolateral K+ -Cl- cotransport and/or K+ and Cl- channels operating in parallel, mediate electroneutral K+ absorption in animal colon. We now know that K+ absorption in rat colon reflects ouabain-sensitive and ouabain-insensitive apical H+ ,K+ -ATPase activities. Ouabain-insensitive and ouabain-sensitive H+ ,K+ -ATPases are localized in surface and crypt cells, respectively. Colonic H+ ,K+ -ATPase consists of α- (HKCα ) and β- (HKCβ ) subunits which, when coexpressed, exhibit ouabain-insensitive H+ ,K+ -ATPase activity in HEK293 cells, while HKCα coexpressed with the gastric β-subunit exhibits ouabain-sensitive H+ ,K+ -ATPase activity in Xenopus oocytes. Aldosterone enhances apical H+ ,K+ -ATPase activity, HKCα specific mRNA and protein expression, and K+ absorption. Active K+ secretion, on the other hand, is mediated by apical K+ channels operating in a coordinated way with the basolateral Na+ -K+ -2Cl- cotransporter. Both Ca2+ -activated intermediate conductance K+ (IK) and large conductance K+ (BK) channels are located in the apical membrane of colonic epithelia. IK channel-mediated K+ efflux provides the driving force for Cl- secretion, while BK channels mediate active (e.g., cAMP-activated) K+ secretion. BK channel expression and activity are increased in patients with end-stage renal disease and ulcerative colitis. This review summarizes the role of apical H+ ,K+ -ATPase in K+ absorption, and apical BK channel function in K+ secretion in health and disease. © 2018 American Physiological Society.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common type of dementia, mainly encompassing cognitive decline in subjects aged ≥65 years. Further, AD is characterized by selective synaptic and neuronal degeneration, vascular dysfunction, and two histopathological features: extracellular amyloid plaques composed of amyloid beta peptide (Aβ) and neurofibrillary tangles formed by hyperphosphorylated tau protein. Dementia and AD are chronic neurodegenerative conditions with a complex physiopathology involving both genetic and environmental factors. Recent clinical studies have shown that proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are associated with risk of dementia, including AD. However, a recent case-control study reported decreased risk of dementia. PPIs are a widely indicated class of drugs for gastric acid-related disorders, although most older adult users are not treated for the correct indication. Although neurological side effects secondary to PPIs are rare, several preclinical reports indicate that PPIs might increase Aβ levels, interact with tau protein, and affect the neuronal microenvironment through several mechanisms. Considering the controversy between PPI use and dementia risk, as well as both cognitive and neuroprotective effects, the aim of this review is to examine the relationship between PPI use and brain effects from a neurobiological and clinical perspective.

Abstract
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by mutations in the gene that encodes the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) anion channel. In humans and pigs, the loss of CFTR impairs respiratory host defenses, causing airway infection. But CF mice are spared. We found that in all three species, CFTR secreted bicarbonate into airway surface liquid. In humans and pigs lacking CFTR, unchecked H(+) secretion by the nongastric H(+)/K(+) adenosine triphosphatase (ATP12A) acidified airway surface liquid, which impaired airway host defenses. In contrast, mouse airways expressed little ATP12A and secreted minimal H(+); consequently, airway surface liquid in CF and non-CF mice had similar pH. Inhibiting ATP12A reversed host defense abnormalities in human and pig airways. Conversely, expressing ATP12A in CF mouse airways acidified airway surface liquid, impaired defenses, and increased airway bacteria. These findings help explain why CF mice are protected from infection and nominate ATP12A as a potential therapeutic target for CF.

Abstract
A lysine residue within the highly conserved center of the fifth transmembrane segment in P(IIC)-type ATPase α-subunits is uniquely found in H,K-ATPases instead of a serine in all Na,K-ATPase isoforms. Because previous studies suggested a prominent role of this residue in determining the electrogenicity of non-gastric H,K-ATPase and in pK(a) modulation of the proton-translocating residues in the gastric H,K-ATPases as well, we investigated its functional significance for ion transport by expressing several Lys-791 variants of the gastric H,K-ATPase in Xenopus oocytes. Although the mutant proteins were all detected at the cell surface, none of the investigated mutants displayed any measurable K(+)-induced stationary currents. In Rb(+) uptake measurements, replacement of Lys-791 by Arg, Ala, Ser, and Glu substantially impaired transport activity and reduced the sensitivity toward the E(2)-specific inhibitor SCH28080. Furthermore, voltage clamp fluorometry using a reporter site in the TM5/TM6 loop for labeling with tetra-methylrhodamine-6-maleimide revealed markedly changed fluorescence signals. All four investigated mutants exhibited a strong shift toward the E(1)P state, in agreement with their reduced SCH28080 sensitivity, and an about 5-10-fold decreased forward rate constant of the E(1)P ↔ E(2)P conformational transition, thus explaining the E(1)P shift and the reduced Rb(+) transport activity. When Glu-820 in TM6 adjacent to Lys-791 was replaced by non-charged or positively charged amino acids, severe effects on fluorescence signals and Rb(+) transport were also observed, whereas substitution by aspartate was less disturbing. These results suggest that formation of an E(2)P-stabilizing interhelical salt bridge is essential to prevent futile proton exchange cycles of H(+) pumping P-type ATPases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The H,K-ATPase, consisting of α and ß subunits, belongs to the P-type ATPase family. There are two isoforms of the α subunit, HKα₁ and HKα₂ encoded by different genes. The ouabain-resistant gastric HKα₁-H,K-ATPase is Sch28080-sensitive. However, the colonic HKα₂-H,K-ATPase from different species shows poor primary structure conservation of the HKα₂ subunit between species and diverse pharmacological sensitivity to ouabain and Sch28080. This study sought to determine the contribution of each gene to functional activity and its pharmacological profile using mouse models with targeted disruption of HKα₁, HKα₂, or HKbeta genes. METHODS Membrane vesicles from gastric mucosa and distal colon in wild-type (WT), HKα₁, HKα₂, or HKß knockout (KO) mice were extracted. K-ATPase activity and pharmacological profiles were examined. RESULTS The colonic H,K-ATPase demonstrated slightly greater affinity for K(+) than the gastric H,K-ATPase. This K-ATPase activity was not detected in the colon of HKα₂ KO but was observed in HKß KO with properties indistinguishable from WT. Neither ouabain nor Sch28080 had a significant effect on the WT colonic K-ATPase activity, but orthovanadate abolished this activity. Amiloride and its analogs benzamil and 5-N-ethyl-N-isopropylamiloride inhibited K-ATPase activity of HKα₁-containing H,K-ATPase; the dose dependence of inhibition was similar for all three inhibitors. In contrast, the colonic HKα₂-H,K-ATPase was not inhibited by these compounds. CONCLUSIONS These data demonstrate that the mouse colonic H,K-ATPase exhibits a ouabain- and Sch28080-insensitive, orthovanadate-sensitive K-ATPase activity. Interestingly, pharmacological studies suggested that the mouse gastric H,K-ATPase is sensitive to amiloride. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE Characterization of the pharmacological profiles of the H,K-ATPases is important for understanding the relevant knockout animals and for considering the specificity of the inhibitors.

Abstract
The human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum is capable of adapting to vastly different extracellular Ca(2+) environments while maintaining tight control of its intracellular Ca(2+) concentration. The mechanisms underpinning Ca(2+) homeostasis in this important pathogen are only partly understood. Here we have functionally expressed the putative Ca(2+)/H(+) antiporter PfCHA in Xenopus laevis oocytes. Our data suggest that PfCHA mediates H(+)-coupled Ca(2+) and Mn(2+) exchange. The apparent dissociation constant K(M) for Ca(2+) of 2.2 +/- 0.7 mM and the maximal velocity V(max) of 0.6 +/- 0.1 nmol per oocyte per hour are consistent with PfCHA being a low-affinity high-capacity Ca(2+) carrier. In the parasite, PfCHA was found to localize to the mitochondrion. Physiological studies conducted with live parasitized erythrocytes, and using Fluo-4 and Rhod-2 to monitor cytoplasmic and mitochondrial Ca(2+) dynamics, suggest that the mitochondrion serves as a dynamic Ca(2+) store and that PfCHA functions as a Ca(2+) efflux system expelling excess Ca(2+) from the mitochondrion. PfCHA lacks appreciable homologies to the human mitochondrial Ca(2+)/H(+) exchanger and might represent an evolutionary divergent class of mitochondrial cation antiporter, which, in turn, might provide novel opportunities for intervention.

Abstract
P-type ATPases of the IIC subfamily exhibit large differences in sensitivity toward ouabain. This allows a strategy in which ouabain-insensitive members of this subfamily are used as template for mutational elucidation of the ouabain-binding site. With this strategy, we recently identified seven amino acids in Na,K-ATPase that conferred high affinity ouabain binding to gastric H,K-ATPase (Qiu, L. Y., Krieger, E., Schaftenaar, G., Swarts, H. G. P., Willems, P. H. G. M., De Pont, J. J. H. H. M., and Koenderink, J. B. (2005) J. Biol. Chem. 280, 32349-32355). Because important, but identical, amino acids were not recognized in that study, here we used the non-gastric H,K-ATPase, which is rather ouabain-insensitive, as template. The catalytic subunit of this enzyme, in which several amino acids from Na,K-ATPase were incorporated, was expressed with the Na,K-ATPase beta1 subunit in Xenopus laevis oocytes. A chimera containing 14 amino acids, located in M4, M5, and M6, which are unique to Na,K-ATPase, displayed high affinity ouabain binding. Four of these residues, all located in M5, appeared dispensable for high affinity binding. Individual mutation of the remaining 10 residues to their non-gastric H,K-ATPase counterparts yielded five amino acids (Glu312,Gly319, Pro778, Leu795, and Cys802) whose mutation resulted in a loss of ouabain binding. In a final gain-of-function experiment, we introduced these five amino acids in different combinations in non-gastric H,K-ATPase and demonstrated that all five were essential for high affinity ouabain binding. The non-gastric H,K-ATPase with these five mutations had a similar apparent affinity for ouabain as the wild type Na,K-ATPase and showed a 2000 times increased affinity for ouabain in the NH4+-stimulated ATPase activity in membranes of transfected Sf9 cells.

Abstract
Rat collecting ducts display either an ouabain-insensitive or an ouabain-sensitive K-ATPase activity inhibited by Sch28080 according as animals are fed a normal or a potassium-depleted diet (types I and III K-ATPase, respectively). Two isoforms of H,K-ATPase have been cloned from rat gastric mucosa and colon, respectively. Gastric and colonic H,K-ATPase are expressed in the kidney, suggesting that they might account for types I and III K-ATPases. However, this hypothesis is not fully supported by segmental expression of gastric and colonic H,K-ATPase along the rat collecting duct, as well as by comparison of the pharmacological properties of gastric and colonic H,K-ATPase expressed in Xenopus ovocyte and types I and III K-ATPases in rat collecting ducts. The aim of the present work is to address directly the molecular origin of types I and III K-ATPases in the mouse collecting duct by measuring K-ATPase activities in collecting ducts of wild-type mice and mice genetically deficient in either gastric or colonic H,K-ATPase fed either a regular or a potassium-depleted diet. Like the rat, mouse collecting ducts display type I or III K-ATPase activity when fed a regular or a potassium-depleted diet, respectively. Type I K-ATPase activity is detected in colonic H,K-ATPase-deficient mice but not in gastric H,K-ATPase-deficient animals. Conversely, type III K-ATPase activity disappears in colonic H,K-ATPase-deficient but not in gastric H,K-ATPase-deficient mice. In conclusion, types I and III K-ATPases measured in collecting ducts of normal and potassium-depleted mice reflect the functional expression of gastric and colonic H,K-ATPase, respectively.

Abstract
The unusually low 78% amino acid identity between the orthologous human SLC26A6 and mouse slc26a6 polypeptides prompted systematic comparison of their anion transport functions in Xenopus oocytes. Multiple human SLC26A6 variant polypeptides were also functionally compared. Transport was studied as unidirectional fluxes of (36)Cl(-), [(14)C]oxalate, and [(35)S]sulfate; as net fluxes of HCO(3)(-) by fluorescence ratio measurement of intracellular pH; as current by two-electrode voltage clamp; and as net Cl(-) flux by fluorescence intensity measurement of relative changes in extracellular and intracellular [Cl(-)]. Four human SLC26A6 polypeptide variants each exhibited rates of bidirectional [(14)C]oxalate flux, Cl(-)/HCO(3)(-) exchange, and Cl(-)/OH(-) exchange nearly equivalent to those of mouse slc26a6. Cl(-)/HCO(3)(-) exchange by both orthologs was cAMP-sensitive, further enhanced by coexpressed wild type cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator but inhibited by cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator DeltaF508. However, the very low rates of (36)Cl(-) and [(35)S]sulfate transport by all active human SLC26A6 isoforms contrasted with the high rates of the mouse ortholog. Human and mouse orthologs also differed in patterns of acute regulation. Studies of human-mouse chimeras revealed cosegregation of the high (36)Cl(-) transport phenotype with the transmembrane domain of mouse slc26a6. Mouse slc26a6 and human SLC26A6 each mediated electroneutral Cl(-)/HCO(3)(-) and Cl(-)/OH(-) exchange. In contrast, whereas Cl(-)/oxalate exchange by mouse slc26a6 was electrogenic, that mediated by human SLC26A6 appeared electroneutral. The increased currents observed in oocytes expressing either mouse or human ortholog were pharmacologically distinct from the accompanying monovalent anion exchange activities. The human SLC26A6 polypeptide variants SLC26A6c and SLC26A6d were inactive as transporters of oxalate, sulfate, and chloride. Thus, the orthologous mouse and human SLC26A6 proteins differ in anion selectivity, transport mechanism, and acute regulation, but both mediate electroneutral Cl(-)/HCO(3)(-) exchange.

Abstract
The transport activity of the Na,K-ATPase (a 3 Na+ for 2 K+ ion exchange) is electrogenic, whereas the closely related gastric and non-gastric H,K-ATPases perform electroneutral cation exchange. We have studied the role of a highly conserved serine residue in the fifth transmembrane segment of the Na,K-ATPase, which is replaced with a lysine in all known H,K-ATPases. Ouabain-sensitive 86Rb uptake and K+-activated currents were measured in Xenopus oocytes expressing the Bufo bladder H,K-ATPase or the Bufo Na,K-ATPase in which these residues, Lys800 and Ser782, respectively, were mutated. Mutants K800A and K800E of the H,K-ATPase showed K+-stimulated and ouabain-sensitive electrogenic transport. In contrast, when the positive charge was conserved (K800R), no K+-induced outward current could be measured, even though rubidium transport activity was present. Conversely, the S782R mutant of the Na,K-ATPase had non-electrogenic transport activity, whereas the S782A mutant was electrogenic. The K800S mutant of the H,K-ATPase had a more complex behavior, with electrogenic transport only in the absence of extracellular Na+. Thus, a single positively charged residue in the fifth transmembrane segment of the alpha-subunit can determine the electrogenicity and therefore the stoichiometry of cation transport by these ATPases.

Abstract
The mechanism of cation translocation by the Na,K-ATPase was investigated by cysteine scanning mutagenesis and measurements of accessibility through exposure to cysteine reagents. In the native protein, accessible residues were found only at the most extracellular residues of the 5th and 6th transmembrane segments (TMS) and the short loop between them. However, after modification by palytoxin a number of residues became accessible along the whole length of the 5th TMS and in the outer half of the 6th TMS, showing the contribution of each of these segments to the "channel" formed by the palytoxin-transformed Na,K-pump. Assuming that this structure is similar in the native and the palytoxin-transformed pump, our data allow us to determine the residues lining the cation pathway from the extracellular solution to their binding sites. A critical position in the 5th TMS contains a lysine conserved in all known nonelectrogenic H,K-ATPases, and a serine in all known electrogenic Na,K-ATPase sequences. Wild-type or mutant Na,K-or H,K-ATPase a subunits were coinjected with the Bufo beta2 subunit in Xenopus oocytes and Rb(86) uptake and electrophysiological measurements were performed. An electrogenic activity was recorded for the H,K-ATPase mutants in which the positively charged lysine had been replaced by neutral or negatively charged residues, while nonelectrogenic transport was observed with the S(782)R mutant of the Na,K-ATPase. The presence or the absence of a positively charged residue at the S(782) position appears to be critical for the stoichiometry of cation exchange.

Abstract
The human nongastric H+-K+-ATPase, ATP1AL1, shown to reabsorb K+ in exchange for H+ or Na+, is localized in the luminal plasma membrane of renal epithelial cells. It is presumed that renal H+-K+-ATPases can be regulated by endocytosis. However, little is known about the molecular mechanisms that control plasma membrane expression of renal H+-K+-ATPases. In our study, activation of protein kinase C (PKC) using phorbol esters (phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate) leads to clathrin-dependent internalization and intracellular accumulation of the ion pump in stably transfected Madin-Darby canine kidney cells. Functional inactivation of the H+-K+-ATPase by PKC activation is shown by intracellular pH measurements. Proton extrusion capacity of ATP1AL1-transfected cells is drastically reduced after phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate incubation and can be prevented with the PKC blocker bisindolylmaleimide. Ion pump internalization and inactivation are specifically mediated by the PKC pathway, whereas activation of the protein kinase A pathway has no influence. Our results show that the nongastric H+-K+-ATPase is a specific target for the PKC pathway. Therefore, PKC-mediated phosphorylation is a potential regulatory mechanism for apical nongastric H+-K+-ATPase plasma membrane expression.

Abstract
The molecular basis of active ion transport in secretory glands such as the prostate is not well characterized. Rat nongastric H-K-ATPase is expressed at high levels in distal colon surface cell apical membranes and thus is referred to as "colonic." Here we show that the ATPase is expressed in rodent prostate complex in a lobe-specific manner. RT-PCR and Western blot analyses indicate that rat nongastric H-K-ATPase alpha-subunit (alpha(ng)) mRNA and protein are present in coagulating gland (anterior prostate) and lateral and dorsal prostate and absent from ventral lobe, whereas Na-K-ATPase alpha-subunit is present in all lobes. RT-PCR analysis shows that Na-K-ATPase alpha(4) and alpha(3) and gastric H-K-ATPase alpha-subunit are not present in significant amounts in all prostate lobes. Relatively low levels of Na-K-ATPase alpha(2) were found in lateral, dorsal, and anterior lobes. alpha(ng) protein expression is anteriodorsolateral: highest in coagulating gland, somewhat lower in dorsal lobe, and even lower in lateral lobe. Na-K-ATPase protein abundance has the reverse order: expression in ventral lobe is higher than in coagulating gland. alpha(ng) protein abundance is higher in coagulating gland than distal colon membranes. Immunohistochemistry shows that in rat and mouse coagulating gland epithelium alpha(ng) protein has an apical polarization and Na-K-ATPase alpha(1) is localized in basolateral membranes. The presence of nongastric H-K-ATPase in rodent prostate apical membranes may indicate its involvement in potassium concentration regulation in secretions of these glands.

Abstract
The H(+)/K(+)-ATPase alpha2 subunit (HK alpha 2) of distal colon and renal collecting ducts plays a critical role in potassium and acid-base homeostasis. The isolation and complete sequence of the murine HK alpha 2 gene are reported. The HK alpha 2 gene contains 23 exons and spans 23.5 kb of genomic DNA. The exon/intron organization is comparable to that of the human ATP1AL1 gene. Primer extension and 5'-rapid amplification of cDNA ends of distal colon RNA were used to map the transcription initiation site. Fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis localized the HK alpha 2 gene to murine chromosome 14C3. Sequence analysis of 7.2 kb of the 5'-flanking region revealed numerous consensus sites for transcription factors, including two potential glucocorticoid response elements. Transient transfection of promoter-luciferase constructs demonstrated strong basal HK alpha 2 promoter activity in renal collecting duct cells but not in fibroblasts or in a medullary thick ascending limb of Henle's loop cell line. Deletion analysis revealed that the proximal 0.2 kb of the promoter was sufficient to confer activity in collecting duct cells. These data should prove important in elucidation of the mechanisms controlling the differential, tissue-specific expression of the HK alpha 2 gene.

Abstract
Bufo marinus bladder H-K-ATPase belongs to the Na-K-ATPase and H-K-ATPase subfamily of oligomeric P-type ATPases and is closely related to rat and human nongastric H-K-ATPases. It has been demonstrated that this ATPase transports K(+) into the cell in exchange for protons and sodium ions, but the stoichiometry of this cation exchange is not yet known. We studied the electrogenic properties of B. marinus bladder H-K-ATPase expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes. In a HEPES-buffered solution, K(+) activation of the H-K-ATPase induced a slow-onset inward current that reached an amplitude of approximately 20 nA after 1-2 min. When measurements were performed in a solution containing 25 mM HCO at a PCO(2) of 40 Torr, the negative current activated by K(+) was reduced. In noninjected oocytes, intracellular alkalization activated an inward current similar to that due to B. marinus H-K-ATPase. We conclude that the transport activity of the nongastric B. marinus H-K-ATPase is not intrinsically electrogenic but that the inward current observed in oocytes expressing this ion pump is secondary to intracellular alkalization induced by proton transport.

Abstract
An H+-K+-ATPase contributes to hydrogen secretion and potassium reabsorption by the rat and rabbit collecting ducts. Transport of these ions appears to be accomplished by one or both of two isoforms of the H+-K+-ATPase, HKalpha(1) and HKalpha(2,) because both isoforms are found in the collecting ducts and transport of hydrogen and potassium is attenuated by exposure to inhibitors of these transport proteins. To evaluate whether an H+-K+-ATPase is present in the human kidney, immunohistochemical studies were performed using normal human renal tissue probed with antibodies directed against epitopes of three of the known isoforms of the H+-K+-ATPase , HKalpha(1), HKalpha(2), and HKalpha(4), and the V-type H+-ATPase. Cortical and medullary tissue probed with antibodies against HKalpha(1) showed cytoplasmic staining of intercalated cells that was less intense than that observed in the parietal cells of normal rat stomach stained with the same antibody. Also, weak immunoreactivity was detected in principal cells of the human collecting ducts. Cortical and medullary tissue probed with antibodies directed against HKalpha(4) revealed weak, diffuse staining of intercalated cells of the collecting ducts and occasional light staining of principal cells. Cortical and medullary tissue probed with antibodies directed against the H+-ATPase revealed staining of intercalated cells of the collecting ducts and some cells of the proximal convoluted tubules. By contrast, no discernible staining was noted with the use of the antibody against HKalpha(2). These data indicate that HKalpha(1) and HKalpha(4) are present in the collecting ducts of the human kidney. In this location, these isoforms might contribute to hydrogen and potassium transport by the kidney.

Abstract
Rat collecting ducts exhibit type I or type III K(+)-ATPase activities when animals are fed a normal (NK) or a K(+)-depleted diet (LK). This study aimed at determining functionally the cell origin of these two K(+)-ATPases. For this purpose, we searched for an effect on K(+)-ATPases of hormones that trigger cAMP production in a cell-specific fashion. The effects of 1-deamino-8-D-arginine vasopressin (dD-AVP), calcitonin, and isoproterenol in principal cells, alpha-intercalated cells, and beta-intercalated cells of cortical collecting duct (CCD), respectively, and of dD-AVP and glucagon in principal and alpha-intercalated cells of outer medullary collecting duct (OMCD), respectively, were examined. In CCDs, K(+)-ATPase was stimulated by calcitonin and isoproterenol in NK rats (type I K(+)-ATPase) and by dD-AVP in LK rats (type III K(+)-ATPase). In OMCDs, dD-AVP and glucagon stimulated type III but not type I K(+)-ATPase. These hormone effects were mimicked by the cAMP-permeant analog dibutyryl-cAMP. In conclusion, in NK rats, cAMP stimulates type I K(+)-ATPase activity in alpha- and beta-intercalated CCD cells, whereas in LK rats it stimulates type III K(+)-ATPase in principal cells of both CCD and OMCD and in OMCD intercalated cells.

Abstract
The physiologic function of an ion pump is determined, in part, by its subcellular localization and by the cellular mechanisms that modulate its activity. The Na,K-ATPase and the gastric H,K-ATPase are two 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 intra-molecular interactions govern these proteins' trafficking, distribution and catalytic capacity.

Abstract
Na,K-ATPase activity has been identified in the apical membrane of rat distal colon, whereas ouabain-sensitive and ouabain-insensitive H,K-ATPase activities are localized solely to apical membranes. This study was designed to determine whether apical membrane Na,K-ATPase represented contamination of basolateral membranes or an alternate mode of H,K-ATPase expression. An antibody directed against the H, K-ATPase alpha subunit (HKcalpha) inhibited apical Na,K-ATPase activity by 92% but did not alter basolateral membrane Na,K-ATPase activity. Two distinct H,K-ATPase isoforms exist; one of which, the ouabain-insensitive HKcalpha, has been cloned. Because dietary sodium depletion markedly increases ouabain-insensitive active potassium absorption and HKcalpha mRNA and protein expression, Na, K-ATPase and H,K-ATPase activities and protein expression were determined in apical membranes from control and sodium-depleted rats. Sodium depletion substantially increased ouabain-insensitive H, K-ATPase activity and HKcalpha protein expression by 109-250% but increased ouabain-sensitive Na,K-ATPase and H,K-ATPase activities by only 30% and 42%, respectively. These studies suggest that apical membrane Na,K-ATPase activity is an alternate mode of ouabain-sensitive H,K-ATPase and does not solely represent basolateral membrane contamination.

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.

Abstract
Tissue-distinct interactions of the Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase with Na(+) and K(+), independent of isoform-specific properties, were reported previously (A. G. Therien, N. B. Nestor, W. J. Ball, and R. Blostein. J. Biol. Chem. 271: 7104-7112, 1996). In this paper, we describe a detailed analysis of tissue-specific kinetics particularly relevant to regulation of pump activity by intracellular K(+), namely K(+) inhibition at cytoplasmic Na(+) sites. Our results show that the order of susceptibilities of alpha(1) pumps of various rat tissues to K(+)/Na(+) antagonism, represented by the ratio of the apparent affinity for Na(+) binding at cytoplasmic activation sites in the absence of K(+) to the affinity constant for K(+) as a competitive inhibitor of Na(+) binding at cytoplasmic sites, is red blood cell < axolemma approximately rat alpha(1)-transfected HeLa cells < small intestine < kidney < heart. In addition, we have carried out an extensive analysis of the kinetics of K(+) binding and occlusion to the cytoplasmic cation binding site and find that, for most tissues, there is a relationship between the rate of K(+) binding/occlusion and the apparent affinity for K(+) as a competitive inhibitor of Na(+) activation, the order for both parameters being heart >/= kidney > small intestine approximately rat alpha(1)-transfected HeLa cells. The notion that modulations in cytoplasmic K(+)/Na(+) antagonism are a potential mode of pump regulation is underscored by evidence of its reversibility. Thus the relatively high K(+)/Na(+) antagonism characteristic of kidney pumps was reduced when rat kidney microsomal membranes were fused into the dog red blood cell.

Abstract
Different isoforms of the sodium/potassium adenosinetriphosphatase (Na,K-ATPase) alpha and beta subunits have been identified in mammals. The association of the various alpha and beta polypeptides results in distinct Na,K-ATPase isozymes with unique enzymatic properties. We studied the function of the Na,K-ATPase alpha4 isoform in Sf-9 cells using recombinant baculoviruses. When alpha4 and the Na pump beta1 subunit are coexpressed in the cells, Na, K-ATPase activity is induced. This activity is reflected by a ouabain-sensitive hydrolysis of ATP, by a Na(+)-dependent, K(+)-sensitive, and ouabain-inhibitable phosphorylation from ATP, and by the ouabain-inhibitable transport of K(+). Furthermore, the activity of alpha4 is inhibited by the P-type ATPase blocker vanadate but not by compounds that inhibit the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca-ATPase or the gastric H,K-ATPase. The Na,K-ATPase alpha4 isoform is specifically expressed in the testis of the rat. The gonad also expresses the beta1 and beta3 subunits. In insect cells, the alpha4 polypeptide is able to form active complexes with either of these subunits. Characterization of the enzymatic properties of the alpha4beta1 and alpha4beta3 isozymes indicates that both Na,K-ATPases have similar kinetics to Na(+), K(+), ATP, and ouabain. The enzymatic properties of alpha4beta1 and alpha4beta3 are, however, distinct from the other Na pump isozymes. A Na, K-ATPase activity with similar properties as the alpha4-containing enzymes was found in rat testis. This Na,K-ATPase activity represents approximately 55% of the total enzyme of the gonad. These results show that the alpha4 polypeptide is a functional isoform of the Na,K-ATPase both in vitro and in the native tissue.

Abstract
The H+,K+-ATPases comprise a group of integral membrane proteins that belong to the X+,K+-ATPase subfamily of P-type cation-transporting ATPases. Although these H+,K+-ATPase isoforms share approximately 60-70% amino acid identity, they exhibit discrete kinetic and pharmacological properties when expressed in heterologous systems. HK alpha2 has been categorized by its insensitivity to Sch-28080, an inhibitor of the gastric H+,K+-ATPase, and partial sensitivity to ouabain, an inhibitor of the Na+,K+-ATPase. This functional profile contrasts with the pharmacological sensitivities ascribed to HK alpha2 in transport studies in rat isolated medullary collecting ducts perfused in vitro and in mouse medullary collecting duct cell lines. HK alpha2 mRNA and protein abundance appears to be both tissue and site-specifically upregulated in response to chronic hypokalemia. This regulatory response has been localized to the outer and inner medulla. To reconcile these expressed sensitivities to those reported in vitro in isolated tubules and cells in culture, it would be necessary to invoke modification of the pharmacologic insensitivity of the colonic H+,K+-ATPase to Sch-28080. Although a 'unique' beta-subunit has been reported recently, this beta-subunit (beta(c)) is identical at the amino acid level to the recently cloned beta3-Na+,K+-ATPase. Moreover, while HK alpha2 can assemble indiscriminately with any X+,K+-ATPase beta-subunit, HK alpha2 has been reported to assemble stably with beta1-Na+,K+-ATPase in the renal medulla and in the distal colon. It remains conceivable that subunit assembly could be tissue specific and might respond to different physiological and pathophysiological stimuli. Furthermore, recent studies have suggested that the H+,K+-ATPase is both Na+-dependent and localized to the apical membrane in the distal colon. Therefore, future studies will need to resolve these discrepancies by determining if a unique, yet undiscovered H+,K+-ATPase isoform exists in kidney, or if post-translational modifications of the alpha- and/or beta-subunits could account for these functional diversities.

Abstract
Functional expression of the rat colonic H(+)-K(+)-ATPase was obtained by coexpressing its catalytic alpha-subunit and the beta(1)-subunit of the Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase in Xenopus laevis oocytes. We observed that, in oocytes expressing the rat colonic H(+)-K(+)-ATPase but not in control oocytes (expressing beta(1) alone), NH(4)Cl induced a decrease in (86)Rb uptake and the initial rate of intracellular acidification induced by extracellular NH(4)Cl was enhanced, consistent with NH(+)(4) influx via the colonic H(+)-K(+)-ATPase. In the absence of extracellular K(+), only oocytes expressing the colonic H(+)-K(+)-ATPase were able to acidify an extracellular medium supplemented with NH(4)Cl. In the absence of extracellular K(+) and in the presence of extracellular NH(+)(4), intracellular Na(+) activity in oocytes expressing the colonic H(+)-K(+)-ATPase was lower than that in control oocytes. A kinetic analysis of (86)Rb uptake suggests that NH(+)(4) acts as a competitive inhibitor of the pump. Taken together, these results are consistent with NH(+)(4) competition for K(+) on the external site of the colonic H(+)-K(+)-ATPase and with NH(+)(4) transport mediated by this pump.

Abstract
Molecular cloning experiments have identified the existence of two H+-K+-ATPases (HKAs), colonic and gastric. Recent functional and molecular studies indicate the presence of both transporters in the kidney, which are presumed to mediate the exchange of intracellular H+ for extracellular K+. On the basis of these studies, a picture is evolving that indicates differential regulation of HKAs at the molecular level in acid-base and electrolyte disorders. Of the two transporters, gastric HKA is expressed constitutively along the length of the collecting duct and is responsible for H+ secretion and K+ reabsorption under normal conditions and may be stimulated with acid-base perturbations and/or K+ depletion. This regulation may be species specific. To date there are no data to indicate that the colonic HKA (HKAc) plays a role in H+ secretion or K+ reabsorption under normal conditions. However, HKAc shows adaptive regulation in pathophysiological conditions such as K+ depletion, NaCl deficiency, and proximal renal tubular acidosis, suggesting an important role for this exchanger in potassium, HCO-3, and sodium (or chloride) reabsorption in disease states. The purpose of this review is to summarize recent functional and molecular studies on the regulation of HKAs in physiological and pathophysiological states. Possible signals responsible for regulation of HKAs in these conditions will be discussed. Furthermore, the role of these transporters in acid-base and electrolyte homeostasis will be evaluated in the context of genetically altered animals deficient in HKAc.

Abstract
The Na-K/H-K-ATPase gene family is divided in three subgroups including the Na-K-ATPases, mainly involved in whole body and cellular ion homeostasis, the gastric H-K-ATPase involved in gastric fluid acidification, and the newly described nongastric H-K-ATPases for which the identification of physiological roles is still in its infancy. The first member of this last subfamily was first identified in 1992, rapidly followed by the molecular cloning of several other members. The relationship between each member remains unclear. The functional properties of these H-K-ATPases have been studied after their ex vivo expression in various functional expression systems, including the Xenopus laevis oocyte, the insect Sf9 cell line, and the human HEK 293 cells. All these H-K-ATPase alpha-subunits appear to encode H-K-ATPases when exogenously expressed in such expression systems. Recent data suggest that these H-K-ATPases could also transport Na+ in exchange for K+, revealing a complex cation transport selectivity. Moreover, they display a unique pharmacological profile compared with the canonical Na-K-ATPases or the gastric H-K-ATPase. In addition to their molecular and functional characterizations, a major goal is to correlate the molecular expression of these cloned H-K-ATPases with the native K-ATPases activities described in vivo. This appears to be more complex than anticipated. The discrepancies between the functional data obtained by exogenous expression of the nongastric H-K-ATPases and the physiological data obtained in native organs could have several explanations as discussed in the present review. Extensive studies will be required in the future to better understand the physiological role of these H-K-ATPases, especially in disease processes including ionic or acid-base disorders.

Abstract
The rabbit H,K-ATPase alpha- and beta-subunits were transiently expressed in HEK293 T cells. The co-expression of the H,K-ATPase alpha- and beta-subunits was essential for the functional H,K-ATPase. The K+-stimulated H,K-ATPase activity of 0.82 +/- 0.2 micromol/mg/h saturated with a K0.5 (KCl) of 0.6 +/- 0.1 mM, whereas the 2-methyl-8-(phenylmethoxy)imidazo[1,2a]pyridine-3-acetonitrile (SCH 28080)-inhibited ATPase of 0.62 +/- 0.07 micromol/mg/h saturated with a Ki (SCH 28080) of 1.0 +/- 0.3 microM. Site mutations were introduced at the N,N-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-reactive residue, Glu-857, to evaluate the role of this residue in ATPase function. Variations in the side chain size and charge of this residue did not inhibit the specific activity of the H,K-ATPase, but reversal of the side chain charge by substitution of Lys or Arg for Glu produced a reciprocal change in the sensitivity of the H,K-ATPase to K+ and SCH 28080. The K0.5 for K+stimulated ATPase was decreased to 0.2 +/-.05 and 0.2 +/-.03 mM, respectively, in Lys-857 and Arg-857 site mutants, whereas the Ki for SCH 28080-dependent inhibition was increased to 6.5 +/- 1.4 and 5.9 +/- 1.5 microM, respectively. The H,K-ATPase kinetics were unaffected by the introduction of Ala at this site, but Leu produced a modest reciprocal effect. These data indicate that Glu-857 is not an essential residue for cation-dependent activity but that the residue influences the kinetics of both K+ and SCH 28080-mediated functions. This finding suggests a possible role of this residue in the conformational equilibrium of the H,K-ATPase.

Abstract
P-type ATPases require both alpha- and beta-subunits for functional activity. Although an alpha-subunit for colonic apical membrane H-K-ATPase (HKcalpha) has been identified and studied, its beta-subunit has not been identified. We cloned putative beta-subunit rat colonic H-K-ATPase (HKcbeta) cDNA that encodes a 279-amino-acid protein with a single transmembrane domain and sequence homology to other rat beta-subunits. Northern blot analysis demonstrates that this HKcbeta is expressed in several rat tissues, including distal and proximal colon, and is highly expressed in testis and lung. HKcbeta mRNA abundance is upregulated threefold compared with normal in distal colon but not proximal colon, testis, or lung of K-depleted rats. In contrast, Na-K-ATPase beta1 mRNA abundance is unaltered in distal colon of K-depleted rats. Na depletion, which also stimulates active K absorption in distal colon, does not increase HKcbeta mRNA abundance. Western blot analyses using a polyclonal antibody raised to a glutathione S-transferase-HKcbeta fusion protein established expression of a 45-kDa HKcbeta protein in both apical and basolateral membranes of rat distal colon, but K depletion increased HKcbeta protein expression only in apical membranes. Physical association between HKcbeta and HKcalpha proteins was demonstrated by Western blot analysis performed with HKcbeta antibody on immunoprecipitate of apical membranes of rat distal colon and HKcalpha antibody. Tissue-specific upregulation of this beta-subunit mRNA in response to K depletion, localization of its protein, its upregulation by K depletion in apical membranes of distal colon, and its physical association with HKcalpha protein provide compelling evidence that HKcbeta is the putative beta-subunit of colonic H-K-ATPase.

Abstract
Isoforms of the H-K-ATPase participate in active K resorption in the renal collecting tubule. The cytoplasmic tail of the beta-subunit of the gastric H-K-ATPase includes a 4 amino acid motif which is highly homologous to tyrosine-based endocytosis signals. We have generated transgenic mice expressing an H-K-ATPase beta-subunit in which the tyrosine residue in this sequence has been mutated to alanine. Mice expressing the mutated protein manifest constitutive hypersecretion of gastric acid, demonstrating that the beta-subunit tyrosine-based motif is required for the regulated endocytosis of the H-K pump and hence the cessation of gastric acid output. To test the possibility that the tyrosine-based sequence in the tail of the H-K-ATPase beta-subunit plays a role in regulating the function of renal H-K-ATPases, we examined renal K clearance in normal and in transgenic mice. Blood pressure, urine volume, glomerular filtration rate (GFR), plasma Na, and Na excretion are similar in control and transgenic mice. However, plasma K concentrations are significantly higher in transgenic mice (4.76 +/- 0.13 meq/l in transgenic and 4. 12 +/- 0.04 meq/l in control; n = 9, P < 0.05) and K excretion is lower in the transgenic animals (fractional excretion of K was 26.2 +/- 3.62% in transgenic and 50.1 +/- 4.78% in control; n = 9, P < 0. 01). These data suggest that the tyrosine-based signal in the cytoplasmic tail of the H-K-ATPase beta-subunit functions in the kidney as it does in the stomach to internalize H-K pump and thus inactivate pump function. Its elimination may result in the constitutive presence of the pump at the cell surface and lead to excessive urinary K reabsorption.

Abstract
The human ATP1AL1-encoded protein (an alpha subunit of the human non-gastric H,K-ATPase) has previously been shown to assemble with the gastric H,K-ATPase beta subunit (gH,Kbeta) to form a functionally active ionic pump in HEK 293 cells. This pump has been found to be sensitive to both SCH 28080 and ouabain. However, the 86Rb+-influx mediated by the ATP1AL1-gH,Kbeta heterodimer in HEK 293 cells is at least 1 order of magnitude larger than the maximum ouabain-sensitive proton efflux detected in the same cells. In this study we find that the intracellular Na+ content in cells expressing ATP1AL1 and gH,Kbeta is two times lower than that in control HEK 293 cells in response to incubation for 3 h in the presence of 1 microM ouabain. Moreover, analysis of net Na+ efflux in HEK 293 expressing the ATP1AL1-gH,Kbeta heterodimer reveals the presence of Na+ extrusion activity that is not sensitive to 1 microM ouabain but can be inhibited by 1 mM of this drug. In contrast, ouabain-inhibitable Na+ efflux in control HEK 293 cells is similarly sensitive to either 1 microM or 1 mM ouabain. Finally, 86Rb+ influx through the ATP1AL1-gH,Kbeta complex is comparable to the 1 mM ouabain-sensitive Na+ efflux in the same cells. The data presented here suggest that the enzyme formed by ATP1AL1 and the gastric H,K-ATPase beta subunit in HEK 293 cells mediates primarily Na+,K+ rather than H+,K+ exchange.

Abstract
A guinea pig cDNA encoding the putative colonic H+-K+-ATPase alpha-subunit (T. Watanabe, M. Sato, K. Kaneko, T. Suzuki, T. Yoshida, and Y. Suzuki; GenBank accession no. D21854) was functionally expressed in HEK-293, a human kidney cell line. The cDNA for the putative colonic H+-K+-ATPase was cotransfected with cDNA for either rabbit gastric H+-K+-ATPase or Torpedo Na+-K+-ATPase beta-subunit. In both expressions, Na+-independent, K+-dependent ATPase (K+-ATPase) activity was detected in the membrane fraction of the cells, with a Michaelis-Menten constant for K+ of 0.68 mM. The expressed K+-ATPase activity was inhibited by ouabain, with its IC50 value being 52 microM. However, the activity was resistant to Sch-28080, an inhibitor specific for gastric H+-K+-ATPase. The ATPase was not functionally expressed in the absence of the beta-subunits. Therefore, it is concluded that the cDNA encodes the catalytic subunit (alpha-subunit) of the colonic H+-K+-ATPase. Although the beta-subunit of the colonic H+-K+-ATPase has not been identified yet, both gastric H+-K+-ATPase and Na+-K+-ATPase beta-subunits were found to act as a surrogate for the colonic beta-subunit for the functional expression of the ATPase. The present colonic H+-K+-ATPase first expressed in mammalian cells showed the highest ouabain sensitivity in expressed colonic H+-K+-ATPases so far reported (rat colonic in Xenopus oocytes had an IC50 = 0.4-1 mM; rat colonic in Sf9 cells had no ouabain sensitivity).

Abstract
The H+/K(+)-ATPase of gastric parietal cells catalyzes acid secretion in the stomach. Regulation of this pump's function involves its targeting to an intracellular storage compartment, which fuses with the apical plasma membrane in response to secretagogue stimulation. The H+/K(+)-ATPase must also be returned to this intracellular storage compartment to inactivate acid secretion. Recent research suggests that a number of targeting signals and protein-protein interactions participate in governing this process.

Abstract
We previously have demonstrated that the colonic P-ATPase alpha subunit cDNA encodes an H,K-ATPase when expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes. Besides its high level of amino acid homology (75%) with the Na,K-ATPase, the colonic H,K-ATPase also shares a common pharmacological profile with Na,K-ATPase, because both are ouabain-sensitive and Sch 28080-insensitive. These features raise the possibility that an unrecognized property of the colonic H, K-ATPase would be Na+ translocation. To test this hypothesis, ion-selective microelectrodes were used to measure the intracellular Na+ activity of X. laevis oocytes expressing various combinations of P-ATPase subunits. The results show that expression in oocytes of the colonic H,K-ATPase affects intracellular Na+ homeostasis in a way similar to the expression of the Bufo marinus Na,K-ATPase; intracellular Na+ activity is lower in oocytes expressing the colonic H,K-ATPase or the B. marinus Na,K-ATPase than in oocytes expressing the gastric H,K-ATPase or a beta subunit alone. In oocytes expressing the colonic H,K-ATPase, the decrease in intracellular Na+ activity persists when diffusive Na+ influx is enhanced by functional expression of the amiloride-sensitive epithelial Na+ channel, suggesting that the decrease is related to increased active Na+ efflux. The Na+ decrease depends on the presence of K+ in the external medium and is inhibited by 2 mM ouabain, a concentration that inhibits the colonic H,K-ATPase. These data are consistent with the hypothesis that the colonic H,K-ATPase may transport Na+, acting as an (Na,H),K-ATPase. Despite its molecular and functional characterization, the physiological role of the colonic (Na,H),K-ATPase in colonic and renal ion homeostasis remains to be elucidated.

Abstract
The Na-K-ATPase beta 1 subunit acts as the beta subunit for the HK alpha 2 protein in the rat kidney. The colonic H(+)-K(+)-ATPase is a member of the P-type ATPases, and has been shown to contribute to potassium transport by the mammalian kidney and colon. The P-type ATPases often consist of an alpha subunit that contains the catalytic site and a beta subunit that participates in regulation of enzyme activity and targeting of the enzyme to the plasma membrane. The cDNA of the alpha subunit (HK alpha 2) has been cloned and the HK alpha 2 protein has been isolated from the rat kidney and colon. However, a unique beta subunit for the colonic H(+)-K(+)-ATPase has not been described. To determine if one of the known beta subunits present in the kidney might act as the beta subunit for the colonic H(+)-K(+)-ATPase, microsomes enriched in the colonic H(+)-K(+)-ATPase were isolated using an HK alpha 2-specific antibody (AS 31.7) and the Minimac magnetic separation system. Immunoblots of rat kidney microsomal protein isolated with antibody AS 31.7 were probed with antibodies directed against the gastric HK beta subunit, Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase alpha 1, and Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase beta 1 subunits. A band of the appropriate size was detected with Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase beta 1-specific antibodies, but not those directed against HK beta 1. These data suggest that Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase beta 1 could be the beta subunit for the colonic H(+)-K(+)-ATPase in the kidney.

Abstract
Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase (sodium/potassium pump) is a P-type ion-motive ATPase found in the plasma membranes of animal cels. In vertebrates, the functions of this enzyme in nerves, heart and kidney are well characterized and characteristics a defined by different isoforms. In contrast, despite different tissue distributions, insects possess a single isoform of the alpha-subunit. A comparison of insect and vertebrate Na(+)/K(+)-ATPases reveals that although the mode of action and structure are very highly conserved, the specific roles of the enzyme in most tissues varies. However, the enzyme is essential for the function of nerve cells, and in this respect Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase appears to be fundamental in metazoan evolution.

Abstract
Parietal cells, which exist in the stomach and in Meckel's diverticulum of the ileum, secrete hydrochloric acid by means of H+,K(+)-ATPase (alpha- and beta-subunits) in the human body. Although parietal cells are generated from progenitor cells (stem cells), their lifespan (approximately 150-200 days) is distinctly longer than that of surface epithelial cells (4 days), which are also derived from stem cells. Microorganisms, including bacteria (both aerobic and anaerobic), are able to pump H+ out by means of H(+)-ATPase. Of interest is that 19% of the human H+,K(+)-ATPase (alpha-subunit) comprises amino acid residues identical to those of the H(+)-ATPase found in Neurospora crassa. In addition, the amino acid sequence in the ATP binding sites of animal Na+,K(+)-ATPase and yeast H(+)-ATPase with phosphorylated intermediates is highly conserved. These data appear to indicate that the parietal cell might have originated from a microorganism that was parabiosed in a separate origin, having digestive organs, that was later incorporated into a stem cell. Thereafter, the gene encoding H+,K(+)-ATPase, or those encoding GATA DNA binding proteins (transcriptional regulators of the gastric H+,K(+)-ATPase gene), or both were translocated into the nuclei, most probably with the aid of a virus and/or a transposon under unusual circumstances. This type of gene translocation most probably occurred during the Cambrian era when Prochordata and Chordata, which have no parietal cells, were abundant. This suggests that in the process of evolution, the stem cells in the digestive organs of the Cordata might have differentiated into two cell types, i.e., surface epithelial cells and parietal cells, before the appearance of fish (which possess parietal cells with H+,K(+)-ATPase).

Abstract
A compound, SCH 28080 (2-methyl-8-(phenylmethoxy)imidazo [1,2-a]pyridine-3-acetonitrile), reversibly inhibits gastric and renal ouabain-insensitive H+,K+-ATPase, but not colonic ouabain-sensitive H+,K+-ATPase. By using the functional expression system and site-directed mutagenesis, we analyzed the putative binding sites of SCH 28080 in gastric H+,K+-ATPase alpha-subunit. It was previously reported that the binding site of SCH 28080, which is a K+-site inhibitor specific for gastric H+,K+-ATPase, was in the first extracellular loop between the first and second transmembrane segments of the alpha-subunit; Phe-126 and Asp-138 were putative binding sites. However, we found that all the mutants in the first extracellular loop including Phe-126 and Asp-138 retained H+, K+-ATPase activity and sensitivity to SCH 28080. Therefore, amino acid residues in the first extracellular loop are not directly involved in the SCH 28080 binding nor indispensable for the H+, K+-ATPase activity. Here we propose a candidate residue that is important for the binding with SCH 28080, Glu-822 in the sixth transmembrane segment. Mutations of Glu-822 to Asp and Ala (mutants termed E822D and E822A, respectively) decreased the ATPase activity to about 45% and 35% of the wild-type enzyme, respectively, while the mutations to Gln and Leu abolished the activity. Mutant E822A showed a significantly lower affinity for K+ than the wild-type enzyme, indicating that Glu-822 is involved in determining the affinity for K+. The sensitivity of mutant E822D to SCH 28080 was 8 times lower than that of the wild-type enzyme. The counterpart of Glu-822 in gastric H+,K+-ATPase is Asp in Na+,K+-ATPase and other colonic ouabain-sensitive H+,K+-ATPase, which are insensitive to SCH 28080. These results suggest that Glu-822 is one of important sites that bind with SCH 28080.

Abstract
Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase is inhibited by cardiac glycosides and is insensitive to Sch-28080, an inhibitor of gastric H(+)-K(+)-ATPase. Gastric H(+)-K(+)-ATPase is not inhibited by cardiac glycosides. Both ouabain and, Sch-28080 binding are inhibited by K+, and it has been suggested that the inhibitors bind to corresponding regions on the alpha-subunit of each ion pump. For identification of regions of each pump that interact with the specific inhibitors, chimeric alpha-subunits consisting of selected regions from Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase and gastric H(+)-K(+)-ATPase have been prepared. One chimera (gM1/2) has been constructed from cDNA of the sheep alpha1-subunit of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase by replacement of the last 12 amino acids of the first predicted transmembrane region (Ile99-Ile110) with corresponding amino acids from rat gastric H(+)-K(+)-ATPase. gM1/2 was expressed in yeast cells together with either the rat Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase beta 1-subunit (NK beta 1) or rat gastric H(+)-K(+)-ATPase beta-subunit (HK beta). Western blots show that the expression level of the chimeric alpha-subunit was comparable to the Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase alpha 1. Ouabain binds with high affinity to gM1/2+NK beta 1 [ouabain binding affinity (Kd) = 9.5 nM] but not to gM1/2+HK beta. The Kd for ouabain binding to Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase was 7.8 nM. Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity of gM1/2+NK beta 1 was inhibited both by ouabain and Sch-28080. The 50% inhibition concentration for Sch-28080 was 20-60 nM. Sch-28080 at 10 microM did not inhibit Mg(2+)- and Pi-dependent ouabain binding to gM1/2+NK beta 1. Ouabain (0.75 mM) inhibited palytoxin-induced K+ efflux from yeast cells expressing either gM1/2+NK beta 1 or gM1/2+NK beta, and Sch-28080 increased the palytoxin-induced K+ efflux from yeast cells expressing gM1/2+NK beta 1 or gM1/2+HK beta. These results implicate a small number of amino acids in the first transmembrane part of gastric H(+)-K(+)-ATPase as partial determinants of the sensitivity to Sch-28080. The data also suggest that ouabain and Sch-28080 do not bind to the same site on the chimera.

Abstract
Functional evaluation of chemically modified human erythrocytes has led to the proposal that amino acid residue E681 of the band 3 anion exchanger AE1 lies on the anion translocation pathway and is a proton carrier required for H+/SO4(2-) cotransport. We have tested in Xenopus oocytes the functional consequences of mutations in the corresponding residue E699 of mouse AE1. Most mutations tested abolished AE1-mediated Cl- influx and efflux. Only the E699Q mutation increased stilbene disulfonate-sensitive efflux and influx of SO4(2-). E699Q-mediated Cl- influx was activated by elevation of intracellular SO4(2-), but E699Q-mediated Cl- efflux was undetectable. The DNDS (4,4'-dinitrostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid) sensitivity of E699Q-mediated SO4(2-) efflux was indistinguishable from that of wt AE1-mediated Cl- efflux. The extracellular anion selectivity of E699Q-mediated SO4(2-) efflux was similar to that of wt AE1-mediated Cl- efflux. The stoichiometry of E699Q-mediated exchange of extracellular Cl- with intracellular SO4(2-) was 1:1. Whereas SO4(2-) injection into oocytes expressing wt AE1 produced little change in membrane potential or resistance, injection of SO4(2-), but not of Cl- or gluconate, into oocytes expression E699Q depolarized the membrane by 17 mV and decreased membrane resistance by 66%. Replacement of bath Cl- with isethionate caused a 28-mV hyperpolarization in SO4(2-)-loaded oocytes expressing E699Q, but had no effect on oocytes expressing wt AE1. Extracellular Cl(-)-dependent depolarization of SO4(2-)-preloaded oocytes was blocked by DNDS. AE1 E699Q-mediated inward current measured in the presence of extracellular Cl- was of magnitude sufficient to account for measured 35SO4(2-) efflux. Thus, AE1 E699Q-mediated SO4(2-)/Cl- exchange operated largely, if not exclusively, as an electrogenic, asymmetric, 1:1 anion exchange. The data confirm the proposal that E699 resides on or contributes to the integrity of the anion translocation pathway of AE1. A single amino acid change in the sequence of AE1 converted electroneutral to electrogenic anion exchange without alteration of SO4(2-)/Cl- exchange stoichiometry.

Abstract
On the basis of our report that a glycolipoprotein fraction (GLP) extracted from Leptospira interrogans contains a potent inhibitor of renal Na,K-ATPase, we proposed that GLP-induced inhibition of Na,K-ATPase might be the primary cellular defect in the physiopathology of leptospirosis. The present study was designed to test this hypothesis by determining whether or not 1). GLP inhibits all the isoforms of Na,K-ATPase which are expressed in the tissues affected by leptospirosis, 2) Na,K-ATPase from leptospirosis-resistant species, such as the rat, is sensitive to GLP, 3) GLP inhibits Na,K-ATPase from intact cells, and 4) GLP inhibits ouabain-sensitive H,K-ATPase. The results indicate that in the rabbit, a leptospirosis-sensitive species, GLP inhibits with similar efficiency (apparent IC50: 120-220 micrograms protein GLP/ml) all isoforms of Na,K-ATPase known to be expressed in target tissues for the disease. Na,K-ATPase from rat kidney displays a sensitivity to GLP similar to that of the rabbit kidney enzyme (apparent IC50: 25-80 and 50-150 micrograms protein GLP/ml for rat and rabbit, respectively), indicating that resistance to the disease does not result from the resistance of Na,K-ATPase to GLP. GLP also reduces ouabain-sensitive rubidium uptake in rat thick ascending limbs (pmol mm-1 min-1 +/- SEM; control: 23.8 +/- 1.8; GLP, 88 micrograms protein/ml: 8.2 +/- 0.9), demonstrating that it is active in intact cells. Finally, GLP had no demonstrable effect on renal H,K-ATPase activity, even on the ouabain-sensitive form, indicating that the active principle of GLP is more specific for Na,K-ATPase than ouabain itself. Although the hypothesis remains to be demonstrated in vivo, the present findings are compatible with the putative role of GLP-induced inhibition of Na,K-ATPase as an initial mechanism in the physiopathology of leptospirosis.

Abstract
The functional and pharmacological properties of the alpha-subunit of the colonic H+,K+-ATPase (alphaC) were studied in Xenopus laevis oocytes. alphaC was injected with different rat beta-subunits, the beta-subunit of the gastric H+,K+-ATPase (betaG, the only H+, K+-ATPase beta-subunit identified in rat), or the beta1-subunit of the Na+,K+-ATPase (beta1) (associated with the basolateral Na+, K+-ATPase, but also expressed in the epithelial apical membranes of rat distal colon) (Marxer, A., Stieger, B., Quarini, A., Kashgarian, M., and Hauri, H. P. (1989) J. Cell Biol. 109, 1057-1069). The effect of the different beta-subunits was studied by measuring 86Rb+ uptake (a K+ congener) in the presence or absence of Sch-28080 and ouabain. Significant Na+-independent 86Rb+ uptake was observed only when alphaC was coexpressed with one of the beta-subunits. The expressed alphaCbeta1 and alphaCbetaG complexes were not inhibited by Sch-28080, were only partially sensitive to ouabain (IC50 = 400-600 microM, in the presence of external 1 mM KCl), and exhibited comparable K+ activation kinetics. Coexpression of alphaC with epitope-tagged betaG or beta1, followed by immunopurification of the alphabeta complexes, confirmed stable assembly of alphaCbetaG and alphaCbeta1 complexes. Since the beta1-subunit, but not the alpha1-subunit, of Na+,K+-ATPase is expressed in the apical membrane of rat colonocytes, our data support the view that, in rat distal colon, the beta1-subunit may play a surrogate role as the beta-subunit for the colonic H+,K+-ATPase.

Abstract
The rat nephron displays two ouabain-sensitive K-ATPases: one, which is present in proximal tubules and thick ascending limbs of normal rats, is specifically activated by K+ and is down-regulated by K+ depletion, whereas the other one appears in collecting ducts of K+-depleted rats and is activated by either Na+ or K+. To determine which of these two ATPases is similar to colonic-type H,K-ATPase, we quantitated by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) the mRNAs encoding the colonic H,K-ATPase alpha subunit in microdissected nephron segments. In normal rats, statistically significant amounts of colonic H,K-ATPase mRNAs were detected exclusively in cortical thick ascending limbs and cortical collecting ducts (200-500 copies/mm). Because these levels of expression were low (1-1.2 copies/target cell), they probably have no physiological relevance. In rats fed a K+-depleted diet for 2 weeks, expression of colonic H,K-ATPase was markedly enhanced in cortical and medullary collecting ducts (5000-12,000 copies/mm or 30-40 copies per cell), whereas it remained low in all other nephron segments. Thus, colonic H,K-ATPase alpha subunit is specifically expressed in cortical and outer medullary collecting ducts of K+-depleted rats where it likely accounts for the ouabain-sensitive K-ATPase activity.

Abstract
The functional properties and the pharmacological profile of the recently cloned cDNA colonic P-ATPase alpha subunit (Crowson, M.S., and Shull, G.E. (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 267, 13740-13748) were investigated by using the Xenopus oocyte expression system. Xenopus oocytes were injected with alpha subunit cRNAs from Bufo marinus bladder or rat distal colon and/or with beta subunit cRNA from B. marinus bladder. Two days after injection, K+ uptake was measured by using 86 Rb+ as a K+ surrogate, and pH measurements were performed by means of ion-selective microelectrodes. Co-injection of alpha and beta subunit cRNAs led to a large increase in 86Rb+ uptake, an intracellular alkalinization, and an extracellular medium acidification, as compared to alpha or beta injection alone. These results indicate that the colonic P-ATPase alpha subunit, like the bladder alpha subunit, acts as a functional H+,K+-ATPase, and that co-expression of alpha and beta subunits is required for the function. External K+ activation of the 86Rb+ uptake had a K1/2 of approximately 440 microM for the bladder isoform (consistent with the previously reported value (Jaisser, F., Horisberger, J.D., Geering, K., and Rossier, B.C. (1993) J. Cell. Biol. 123, 1421-1431) and a K1/2 of approximately 730 microM for the colonic isoform. Sch28080 was ineffective to reduce 86Rb+ uptake whereas ouabain inhibited the activity expressed from rat colon alpha subunit with a Ki of 970 microM when measured at the Vmax of the enzyme. We conclude that, when expressed in Xenopus oocytes, the rat colon P-ATPase alpha subunit encodes a ouabain-sensitive H+,K+-ATPase.

Abstract
1. H+/K(+)-ATPases are members of the P-type ATPase multigene family. The prototypical H+/K(+)-ATPase is the protein that acidifies gastric luminal contents. The physiological and pharmacological significance of this pump has led to a detailed investigation of its biochemistry and molecular and cell biology. 2. Recently, a number of closely related H+/K(+)-ATPase isoforms have been discovered. These isoforms are present in organs other than the stomach, including the colon and kidney, where they contribute to acid-base and potassium homeostasis. The structure, expression and physiological roles of the gastric H+/K(+)-ATPase and other isoforms are reviewed.

Abstract
The cDNA for ATP1AL1, the fifth member of the human Na-K-adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase)/H-K-ATPase gene family, was recently cloned (A. V. Grishin, V. E. Sverdlov, M. B. Kostina, and N. N. Modyanov. FEBS Lett. 349: 144-150, 1994). The encoded protein (ATP1AL1) has all the primary structural features common to the catalytic alpha-subunit of ion-transporting P-type ATPases and is similar (63-64% identity) to the Na-K-ATPase alpha-subunit isoforms and the gastric H-K-ATPase alpha-subunit. In this study, ATP1AL1 was expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes in combination with the beta-subunit of rabbit gastric H-K-ATPase. The functional properties of the stable alpha/beta-complex were studied by 86Rb+ uptake and demonstrated that ATP1AL1 is a novel human K(+)-dependent ATPase [apparent half-constant activation/(K1/2) for K+ approximately 375 microM)]. ATP1AL1-mediated inward K+ transport was inhibited by ouabain (inhibition constant approximately 13 microM) and was found to be inhibited by high concentrations of SCH-28080 (approximately 70% at 500 microM). ATP1AL1 expression resulted in the alkalinization of the oocytes' cytoplasm and ouabain-sensitive proton extrusion, as measured with pH-sensitive microelectrodes. These data argue that ATP1AL1 is the catalytic alpha-subunit of a human nongastric P-type ATPase capable of exchanging extracellular potassium for intracellular protons.

Abstract
A putative cDNA for the colonic K-ATPase has recently been cloned (Crowson, M.S., and G. E. Shull. 1992. J. Biol. Chem. 267:13740-13748). Considerable evidence exists that there are two K-ATPases and active K absorptive processes in the rat distal colon: one that is ouabain sensitive and the other ouabain insensitive. The present study used the baculovirus expression system to express K-ATPase activity in insect Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf 9) cells and a polyclonal antibody (M-1), developed against a fusion protein produced from the 327 nucleotide fragment from 5' coding region of the putative K-ATPase cDNA, to identify the specific localization of the K-ATPase protein. K-ATPase activity (28.7 +/- 1.2 nmol inorganic phosphate/mg protein min) was expressed in plasma membranes isolated from Sf 9 cells infected with baculovirus containing recombinant DNA with the putative K-ATPase cDNA. Km for K for the K-ATPase was 1.2 mM. The expressed K-ATPase activity was not inhibited by ouabain (1 mM); while the Ki for vanadate inhibition was 8.3 microM. Western blot analysis with the M-1 antibody identified a 100-kD protein in apical membranes prepared from distal, but not proximal, rat colon. Immunohistochemical studies with M-1 antibody localized K-ATPase only in the apical membrane of surface cells, while an mAb (c464.6) against Na,K-ATPase localized basolateral membranes of both surface and crypt cells of rat distal colon. In conclusion, the putative K-ATPase cDNA encodes an ouabain-insensitive K-ATPase that is present only in the apical membrane of surface cells of rat distal colon.
