摘要


Paracellin-1 (PCLN-1) belongs to the claudin family of tight junction proteins and possibly plays a critical role in the reabsorption of magnesium and calcium. So far, the physiological properties of PCLN-1 have not been clarified. In the present study, we investigated whether PCLN-1 is associated with ZO-1. We also investigated whether (45)Ca(2+) transport across the paracellular barrier is affected by this association. In vitro binding analysis using glutathione S-transferase fusion protein showed that the C-terminal TRV sequence, especially Thr and Val residues, of PCLN-1 interacts with ZO-1. Next, PCLN-1 was stably expressed in Madin-Darby canine kidney cells using a FLAG tagging vector. ZO-1 was co-immunoprecipitated with the wild-type PCLN-1 and the alanine substitution (TAV) mutant. However, mutants of the deletion (Delta TRV) and the alanine substitution (ARV and TRA) inhibited the association of PCLN-1 with ZO-1. Confocal immunofluorescence demonstrated that the wild-type PCLN-1 and the TAV mutant localized in the tight junction along with ZO-1, but the Delta TRV, ARV, and TRA mutants were widely distributed in the lateral membrane including the tight junction area. Interestingly, monolayers of cells expressing the wild-type PCLN-1 and the TAV mutant showed higher activities of (45)Ca(2+) transport from apical to basal compartments, compared with those expressing the Delta TRV, ARV, and TRA mutants and the mock cells. (45)Ca(2+) transport was inhibited by increased magnesium concentration suggesting that magnesium and calcium were competitively transported by PCLN-1. It was noted that a positive electrical potential gradient enhanced (45)Ca(2+) transport from apical to basal compartments without affecting the opposite direction of transport. Thus, PCLN-1 localizes to the tight junction followed by association with ZO-1, and the PCLN-1.ZO-1 complex may play an essential role in the reabsorption of divalent cations in renal epithelial cells.
