Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is a phosphorylation-activated Cl channel. However, very little is known about the endogenous mechanism(s) of deactivation of CFTR-Cl conductance (CFTR-GCl) in vivo. We studied the action of endogenous phosphatases in regulation of the adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP)- and ATP-induced CFTR-GCl in the apical membrane of microperfused preparations of basolaterally permeabilized native sweat duct. Activation of CFTR-GCl was monitored by measuring the apical Cl diffusion potentials and GCl, which spontaneously deactivated on removal of cAMP. This spontaneous loss of CFTR-GCl activity could be prevented by a cocktail of phosphatase inhibitors (fluoride, vanadate, and okadaic acid). We studied the effects of each of these phosphatase antagonists on the rate of deactivation of CFTR-GCl after cAMP washout. In contrast to vanadate or fluoride, okadaic acid virtually prevented deactivation of CFTR-GCl after cAMP washout. We conclude that either or both protein phosphatases 1 and 2A are responsible for the dephosphorylation deactivation of CFTR-GCl in vivo.

Previously, we showed in the native sweat duct that, in the presence of 0.1-0.5 mM ATP, nonhydrolyzable ATP analogue adenosine 5'-adenylylimidodiphosphate (AMP-PNP) can activate cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator Cl- conductance (CFTR GCl) (15). The objective of this study is to determine if 1) nonhydrolytic ATP binding alone can activate CFTR GCl after stable phosphorylation [in the presence of adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) and phosphatase inhibition cocktail] of CFTR or 2) an ATP hydrolysis (in addition to phosphorylation) is required to support subsequent nonhydrolytic ATP regulation of CFTR GCl. We show that stably phosphorylated CFTR could only be activated by AMP-PNP in the presence of a small background ATP concentration. However, AMP-PNP can sustain previously activated CFTR GCl in the absence of ATP, even though Mg2+ is required for phosphorylation activation of CFTR GCl. However, once stably phosphorylated, ATP activation of CFTR GCl is independent of Mg2+. Our results show that both hydrolytic and nonhydrolytic interactions regulate CFTR GCl in vivo. Nonhydrolytic ATP interaction plays a significant role in both activation and deactivation of CFTR GCl.

Epithelia of humans and mice with cystic fibrosis are unable to secrete chloride in response to a chloride gradient or to cAMP-elevating agents. Bioelectrical properties measured using the nasal transepithelial potential difference (TEPD) assay are believed to reflect these cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR)-dependent chloride transport defects. Although the response to forskolin is CFTR mediated, the mechanisms responsible for the response to a chloride gradient are unknown. TEPD measurements performed on inbred mice were used to compare the responses to low chloride and forskolin in vivo. Both responses show little correlation between or within inbred strains of mice, suggesting they are mediated through partially distinct mechanisms. In addition, these responses were assayed in the presence of several chloride channel inhibitors, including DIDS, diphenylamine-2-carboxylate, glibenclamide, and 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)-benzoic acid, and a protein kinase A inhibitor, the Rp diastereomer of adenosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphothioate ( Rp-cAMPS). The responses to low chloride and forskolin demonstrate significantly different pharmacological profiles to both DIDS and Rp-cAMPS, indicating that channels in addition to CFTR contribute to the low chloride response.

Kopito, Ron R. Biosynthesis and Degradation of CFTR. Physiol. Rev. 79, Suppl.: S167–S173, 1999. — Many of the mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene that cause cystic fibrosis interfere with the folding and biosynthetic processing of nascent CFTR molecules in the endoplasmic reticulum. Mutations in the cytoplasmic nucleotide binding domains, including the common allele ΔF508, decrease the efficiency of CFTR folding, reduce the probability of its dissociation from molecular chaperones, and largely prevent its maturation through the secretory pathway to the plasma membrane. These mutant CFTR molecules are rapidly degraded by cytoplasmic proteasomes by a process that requires covalent modification by multiubiquitination. The effects of temperature and chemical chaperones on the intracellular processing of mutant CFTR molecules suggest that strategies aimed at increasing the folding yield of this protein in vivo may eventually lead to the development of novel therapies for cystic fibrosis.

We have demonstrated that Na+/H+ exchanger regulatory factor 1 (NHERF1) overexpression in CFBE41o- cells induces a significant redistribution of F508del cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) from the cytoplasm to the apical membrane and rescues CFTR-dependent chloride secretion. Here, we observe that CFBE41o- monolayers displayed substantial disassembly of actin filaments and that overexpression of wild-type (wt) NHERF1 but not NHERF1-Δ Ezrin-Radixin-Moesin (ERM) increased F-actin assembly and organization. Furthermore, the dominant-negative band Four-point one, Ezrin, Radixin, Moesin homology (FERM) domain of ezrin reversed the wt NHERF1 overexpression-induced increase in both F-actin and CFTR-dependent chloride secretion. wt NHERF1 overexpression enhanced the interaction between NHERF1 and both CFTR and ezrin and between ezrin and actin and the overexpression of wt NHERF1, but not NHERF1-ΔERM, also increased the phosphorylation of ezrin in the apical region of the cell monolayers. Furthermore, wt NHERF1 increased RhoA activity and transfection of constitutively active RhoA in CFBE41o- cells was sufficient to redistribute phospho-ezrin to the membrane fraction and rescue both the F-actin content and the CFTR-dependent chloride efflux. Rho kinase (ROCK) inhibition, in contrast, reversed the wt NHERF1 overexpression-induced increase of membrane phospho-ezrin, F-actin content, and CFTR-dependent secretion. We conclude that NHERF1 overexpression in CFBE41o- rescues CFTR-dependent chloride secretion by forming the multiprotein complex RhoA-ROCK-ezrin-actin that, via actin cytoskeleton reorganization, tethers F508del CFTR to the cytoskeleton stabilizing it on the apical membrane.

Crystallization of recombinant proteins has been fundamental to our understanding of protein function, dysfunction, and molecular recognition. However, this information has often been gleaned under extremely nonphysiological protein, salt, and H+ concentrations. Here, we describe the development of a robust Inka1-Box (iBox)–PAK4cat system that spontaneously crystallizes in several mammalian cell types. The semi-quantitative assay described here allows the measurement of in vivo protein-protein interactions using a novel GFP-linked reporter system that produces fluorescent readouts from protein crystals. We combined this assay with in vitro X-ray crystallography and molecular dynamics studies to characterize the molecular determinants of the interaction between the PDZ2 domain of Na+/H+ exchange regulatory cofactor NHE-RF1 (NHERF1) and cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), a protein complex pertinent to the genetic disease cystic fibrosis. These experiments revealed the crystal structure of the extended PDZ domain of NHERF1 and indicated, contrary to what has been previously reported, that residue selection at positions −1 and −3 of the PDZ-binding motif influences the affinity and specificity of the NHERF1 PDZ2-CFTR interaction. Our results suggest that this system could be utilized to screen additional protein-protein interactions, provided they can be accommodated within the spacious iBox-PAK4cat lattice.
