Interactions between diphtheria toxin entry and anion transport in Vero cells. I. Anion antiport in Vero cells

S Olsnes and K Sandvig

In sodium-free buffer of low ionic strength, the uptake of chloride and sulfate in Vero cells was found to occur mainly by antiport which was very sensitive to inhibition by 4-acetamido-4'-isothiocyanostilbene- 2,2'-disulfonic acid. Efflux of anions from the cells appeared to energize the uptake. While the uptake of Cl- occurred over a wide pH range, that of SO4(2-) showed a clear maximum at pH 6-7. The rate of efflux of 36Cl- and 35SO4(2-) was strongly increased by the presence of permeant anions in the efflux buffer. Preincubation of the cells at slightly alkaline pH strongly increased the rate of C1- efflux into buffers nominally free of permeant anions, as well as the efflux by exchange. This increase did not occur if the cells were depleted for ATP during the preincubation. Depolarization of the cells reduced the rate of efflux into buffers without permeant anions, indicating that the efflux is at least partly due to net, electrogenic, anion transport. The efflux by antiport was not affected by manipulations of the membrane potential, indicating electroneutral exchange. The uptake and efflux were increased to the same extent with increasing temperature, the activation energies were Ea = 25 kcal/mol of Cl- and Ea = 12 kcal/mol of SO4(2-). Similar anion antiport appears to occur in L, baby hamster kidney, and HeLa S3 cells.
