Abstract

Sodium pumps (alphabeta dimers) with the alpha1 isoform of the catalytic (alpha) subunit are expressed in all cells. Additionally, most cells express Na+ pumps with a second alpha isoform. For example, astrocytes and arterial myocytes also express Na+ pumps with the alpha2 isoform. The alpha2 pumps localize to plasma membrane (PM) microdomains overlying "junctional" sarco-/endoplasmic reticulum (S/ER), but the alpha1 pumps are more uniformly distributed. To study alpha2 targeting, we expressed alpha1/alpha2 and alpha2/alpha1 chimeras and 1-90 and 1-120 amino acid N-terminal peptides in primary cultured mouse astrocytes. Immunocytochemistry revealed that alpha2/alpha1 (but not alpha1/alpha2) chimeras markedly reduced native alpha2 (i.e. were "dominant negatives"). N-terminal (1-120 and 1-90 amino acids) alpha2 (and alpha3), but not alpha1 peptides also targeted to the PM-S/ER junctions and were dominant negative for native alpha2 in astrocytes and arterial myocytes. Thus alpha2 and alpha3 have the same targeting sequence. Ca2+ (fura-2) signals in astrocytes expressing the 1-90 alpha2 peptide were comparable to signals in cells from alpha2 null mutants (i.e. functionally dominant negative): 1 microM ATP-evoked Ca2+ transients wer...Continue Reading
