Role of carboxyl and sulfhydryl residues on rabbit small intestinal brush-border membrane Na(+)-glucose cotransporter.

The role of sulfhydryl (SH) and carboxylic acid residues in Na(+)-dependent glucose uptake, Na(+)-dependent phlorizin binding, and substrate exchange by the rabbit small intestinal brush-border membrane (BBM) Na(+)-glucose cotransporter was examined in sodium dodecyl sulfate-BBM vesicles. The sulfhydryl reagent p-chloromercuribenzoate (PCMB) inhibited all three measures of cotransporter function in a dithiothreitol-sensitive manner with similar K0.5 values (concn of PCMB resulting in 50% inhibition). PCMB sulfonate had no effect on Na(+)-glucose cotransporter function < 250 microM. The carboxylic acid reagent 1-ethyl-3-(4-azonia-4,4-dimethylpentyl)carbodiimide no effect on Na(+)-glucose cotransporter function. N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD) inhibited all three measures of cotransporter function with similar K0.5 values for inhibition. Inhibition by DCCD did not require addition of a nucleophile. In contrast, PCMB-pretreated cotransporter was insensitive to DCCD in the absence of added nucleophile with respect to substrate transport (Na(+)-dependent glucose uptake) but not Na(+)-dependent phlorizin binding. These results indicate an intravesicular or lipophilic environment for both the PCMB-reactive SH residue and the DCCD-reactive carboxylic acid residues, suggesting that a SH residue may act as an endogenous nucleophile for interaction of DCCD with the Na(+)-glucose cotransporter and suggesting that different carboxylic acid residues may be involved in Na(+)-dependent glucose uptake and Na(+)-dependent phlorizin binding.
