Localization of the urea transporter UT-B protein in human and rat erythrocytes and tissues.

A new polyclonal antibody to the human erythrocyte urea transporter UT-B detects a broad band between 45 and 65 kDa in human erythrocytes and between 37 and 51 kDa in rat erythrocytes. In human erythrocytes, the UT-B protein is the Kidd (Jk) antigen, and Jk(a+b+) erythrocytes express the 45- to 65-kDa band. However, in Jk null erythrocytes [Jk(a-b-)], only a faint band at 55 kDa is detected. In kidney medulla, a broad band between 41 and 54 kDa, as well as a larger band at 98 kDa, is detected. Human and rat kidney show UT-B staining in nonfenestrated endothelial cells in descending vasa recta. UT-B protein and mRNA are detected in rat brain, colon, heart, liver, lung, and testis. When kidney medulla or liver proteins are analyzed with the use of a native gel, only a single protein band is detected. UT-B protein is detected in cultured bovine endothelial cells. We conclude that UT-B protein is expressed in more rat tissues than previously reported, as well as in erythrocytes.
