Defining the Drug-binding Site in the Human Multidrug Resistance P-glycoprotein Using a Methanethiosulfonate Analog of Verapamil, MTS-verapamil

Defining the residues involved in the binding of a substrate provides insight into how the human multidrug resistance P-glycoprotein (P-gp) can transport a wide range of structurally diverse compounds out of the cell. Because verapamil is the most potent stimulator of P-gp ATPase activity, we synthesized a thiol-reactive analog of verapamil (MTS-verapamil) and used it with cysteine-scanning mutagenesis to identify the reactive residues within the drug-binding domain of P-gp. MTS-verapamil stimulated the ATPase activity of Cys-less P-gp and had a Km value (25 μm) that was similar to that of verapamil. 252 P-gp mutants containing a single cysteine within the predicted transmembrane (TM) segments were expressed in HEK 293 cells and purified by nickel-chelate chromatography and assayed for inhibition by MTS-verapamil. The activities of 15 mutants, Y118C (TM2), V125C (TM2), S222C (TM4), L339C (TM6), A342C (TM6), A729C (TM7), A841C (TM9), N842C (TM9), I868C (TM10), A871C (TM10), F942C (TM11), T945C (TM11), V982C (TM12), G984C (TM12), and A985C (TM12), were inhibited by MTS-verapamil. Four mutants, S222C (TM4), L339C (TM6), A342C (TM6), and G984C (TM12), were significantly protected from inhibition by MTS-verapamil by pretreatment with verapamil. Less protection was observed in mutants I868C (TM10), F942C (TM11) and T945C (TM11). These results indicate that residues in TMs 4, 6, 10, 11, and 12 must contribute to the binding of verapamil.
