Intramolecular Disulfide Bond Is a Critical Check Point Determining Degradative Fates of ATP-binding Cassette (ABC) Transporter ABCG2 Protein

Abstract: Human ABCG2 belongs to the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter family and plays an important role in various biological reactions, such as xenobiotic elimination and homeostasis of protoporphyrin. We previously reported that ABCG2 exists in the plasma membrane as a homodimer bound via a disulfide bond at Cys-603. In the present study, we examined the importance of an intramolecular disulfide bond for stability of the ABCG2 protein.Substitution of either Cys-592 or Cys-608 located in the extracellular loop t… Show more

“…Trafficking patterns for plasma membrane proteins to lysosomes or proteasomes may be altered under diverse conditions, including oxidative stress [glucose transporter GLUT1 (Fernandes et al, 2011) (Wakabayashi et al, 2007)]. While the mechanisms mediating these changes likely differ, there are similarities between our observations with CHT and effects of oxidative stress on GLUT1.…”

“…One possibility is that imatinib may enhance the degradation rate of ABCG2 mRNA through activation of a pathway associated with lysosomal degradation. 16,17 This and other possible mechanisms are currently under investigation.…”

“…The protein is believed to function minimally as a homodimer, although recent three-dimensional structural analysis indicates it may function as a tetrameric complex made up of homodimers (36). Several cysteine residues appear to be important for the dimerization of the functional protein (37,38). Functional ABCG2 acts on a wide range of substrates, which is a common feature of the MRP class of transporters (30).…”
