Band 3 mediates both electroneutral AE (anion exchange) and APCT (anion/proton co-transport). Protons activate APCT and inhibit AE with the same pK (∼5.0). SDs (stilbenedisulphonates) bind to a primary, high-affinity site on band 3 and inhibit both AE and APCT functions. In this study, we present fluorescence and kinetic evidence showing that lowering the pH activates a second site on band 3, which binds DBDS (4,4′-dibenzamido-2,2′-stilbenedisulphonate) independently of chloride concentration, and that DBDS binding to the second site inhibits the APCT function of band 3. Activation of the second site correlated with loss of chloride binding to the transport site, thus explaining the lack of competition. The kinetics of DBDS binding at the second site could be simulated by a slow-transition, two-state exclusive binding mechanism (R0↔T0+D↔TD↔RD, where D represents DBDS, R0 and T0 represent alternate conformational states at the second DBDS-binding site, and TD and RD are the same two states with ligand DBDS bound), with a calculated overall Kd of 3.9 μM and a T0+D↔TD dissociation constant of 55 nM. DBDS binding to the primary SD site inhibited approx. 94% of the proton transport at low pH (KI=68.5±11.8 nM). DBDS binding to the second site inhibited approx. 68% of the proton transport (KI=7.27±1.27 μM) in a band 3 construct with all primary SD sites blocked through selective cross-linking by bis(sulphosuccinimidyl)suberate. DBDS inhibition of proton transport at the second site could be simulated quantitatively within the context of the slow-transition, two-state exclusive binding mechanism. We conclude that band 3 contains two DBDS-binding sites that can be occupied simultaneously at low pH. The binding kinetic and transport inhibition characteristics of DBDS interaction with the second site suggest that it may be located within a gated access channel leading to the transport site.

Band 3 Memphis variant II is a mutant anion-exchange protein associated with the Diego a+ blood group antigen. There are two mutations in this transporter: Lys-56 → Glu within the cytoplasmic domain, and Pro-854 → Leu within the membrane-bound domain. The Pro-854 mutation, which is thought to give rise to the antigenicity, is located within the C-terminal subdomain of the membrane-bound domain. Yet, there is an apparent enhancement in the rate of covalent binding of H2DIDS (4,4´-di-isothiocyanatodihydro-2,2´-stilbenedisulphonate) to ‘lysine A’ (Lys-539) in the N-terminal subdomain, suggesting widespread conformational changes. In this report, we have used various kinetic assays which differentiate between conformational changes in the two subdomains, to characterize the stilbenedisulphonate site on band 3 Memphis variant II. We have found a significantly higher H2DIDS (a C-terminal-sensitive inhibitor) affinity for band 3 Memphis variant II, due to a lower H2DIDS ‘off’ rate constant, but no difference was found between mutant and control when DBDS (4,4´-dibenzamido-2,2´-stilbenedisulphonate) (a C-terminal-insensitive inhibitor) ‘off’ rates were measured. Furthermore, there were no differences in the rates of covalent binding to lysine A, for either DIDS (4,4´-di-isothiocyanato-2,2´-stilbenedisulphonate) or H2DIDS. However, the rate of covalent intrasubunit cross-linking of Lys-539 and Lys-851 by H2DIDS was abnormally low for band 3 Memphis variant II. These results suggest that the Pro-854 → Leu mutation causes a localized conformational change in the C-terminal subdomain of band 3.

Band 3, the major protein of the human erythrocyte membrane, associates with multiple metabolic, ion transport, and structural proteins. Functional studies demonstrate that the oxygenation state of the erythrocyte regulates cellular properties performed by these and/or related proteins. Because deoxyhemoglobin, but not oxyhemoglobin, binds band 3 reversibly with high affinity, these observations raise the hypothesis that hemoglobin might regulate erythrocyte properties through its reversible, oxygenation-dependent association with band 3. To explore this hypothesis, we have characterized the binding site of deoxyHb on human erythrocyte band 3. We report that (1) deoxyHb binds to residues 12-23 of band 3; (2) mutation of residues on either side of this sequence greatly enhances affinity of deoxyHb for band 3, suggesting that evolution of a higher affinity interaction would have been possible had it been beneficial for survival; (3) Hb does not bind to 2 other sequences in band 3 despite their high sequence homology to residues 12-23, and (4) the Hb binding site on band 3 lies proximal to binding sites for glycolytic enzymes, band 4.1 and ankyrin, suggesting possible mechanisms through which multifarious erythrocyte properties might be regulated by the oxygenation state of the cell.

Sweetpotato, <i>Ipomoea batatas</i> (L.) Lam., is an important and widely grown crop, yet its production is affected severely by biotic and abiotic stresses. The nucleotide binding site (NBS)-encoding genes have been shown to improve stress tolerance in several plant species. However, the characterization of NBS-encoding genes in sweetpotato is not well-documented to date. In this study, a comprehensive analysis of NBS-encoding genes has been conducted on this species by using bioinformatics and molecular biology methods. A total of 315 NBS-encoding genes were identified, and 260 of them contained all essential conserved domains while 55 genes were truncated. Based on domain architectures, the 260 NBS-encoding genes were grouped into 6 distinct categories. Phylogenetic analysis grouped these genes into 3 classes: TIR, CC (I), and CC (II). Chromosome location analysis revealed that the distribution of NBS-encoding genes in chromosomes was uneven, with a number ranging from 1 to 34. Multiple stress-related regulatory elements were detected in the promoters, and the NBS-encoding genes’ expression profiles under biotic and abiotic stresses were obtained. According to the bioinformatics analysis, 9 genes were selected for RT-qPCR analysis. The results revealed that <i>IbNBS75</i>, <i>IbNBS219</i>, and <i>IbNBS256</i> respond to stem nematode infection; <i>Ib­NBS240</i>, <i>IbNBS90</i>, and <i>IbNBS80</i> respond to cold stress, while <i>IbNBS208</i>, <i>IbNBS71</i>, and <i>IbNBS159</i> respond to 30% PEG treatment. We hope these results will provide new insights into the evolution of NBS-encoding genes in the sweetpotato genome and contribute to the molecular breeding of sweetpotato in the future.
