Multiple Flavonoid-binding Sites Within Multidrug Resistance Protein MRP1
Overview
Affiliations
Recombinant nucleotide-binding domains (NBDs) from human multidrug resistance protein MRP1 were overexpressed in bacteria and purified to measure their direct interaction with high-affinity flavonoids, and to evaluate a potential correlation with inhibition of MRP1-mediated transport activity and reversion of cellular multidrug resistance. Among different classes of flavonoids, dehydrosilybin exhibited the highest affinity for both NBDs, the binding to N-terminal NBD1 being prevented by ATP. Dehydrosilybin increased vanadate-induced 8-N3-[alpha-32P]ADP trapping, indicating stimulation of ATPase activity. In contrast, dehydrosilybin strongly inhibited leukotriene C4 (LTC4) transport by membrane vesicles from MRP1-transfected cells, independently of reduced glutathione, and chemosensitized cell growth to vincristine. Hydrophobic C-isoprenylation of dehydrosilybin increased the binding affinity for NBD1, but outsite the ATP site, lowered the increase in vanadate-induced 8-N3-[alpha-32P]ADP trapping, weakened inhibition of LTC4 transport which became glutathione dependent, and induced some cross-resistance. The overall results indicate multiple binding sites for dehydrosilybin and its derivatives, on both cytosolic and transmembrane domains of MRP1.
