Abstract

The P-glycoprotein multidrug transporter carries out ATP-driven cellular efflux of a wide variety of hydrophobic drugs, natural products, and peptides. Multiple binding sites for substrates appear to exist, most likely within the hydrophobic membrane spanning regions of the protein. Since ATP hydrolysis is coupled to drug transport, the spatial relationship of the drug binding sites relative to the ATPase catalytic sites is of considerable interest. We have used a fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) approach to estimate the distance between a bound substrate and the catalytic sites in purified P-glycoprotein. The fluorescent dye Hoechst 33342 (H33342), a high-affinity P-glycoprotein substrate, bound to the transporter and acted as a FRET donor. H33342 showed greatly enhanced fluorescence emission when bound to P-glycoprotein, together with a substantial blue shift, indicating that the drug binding site is located in a nonpolar environment. Cys428 and Cys1071 within the catalytic sites of P-glycoprotein were covalently labeled with the acceptor fluorophore NBD-Cl (7-chloro-4-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazole). H33342 fluorescence was highly quenched when bound to NBD-labeled P-glycoprotein relative to unlabeled protein, indi...Continue Reading
