Transmembrane topology of PiT-2, a phosphate transporter-retrovirus receptor.

PiT-1 and PiT-2 are related multiple transmembrane proteins which function as sodium-dependent phosphate transporters and as the cell receptors of several oncoretroviruses. Two copies of a homology domain that is found in distantly related species assign these proteins to a large family of phosphate transporters. A current membrane topology model of PiT-1 and PiT-2 predicts 10 transmembrane dom...

Up-regulation of the Pit-2 phosphate transporter/retrovirus receptor by protein kinase C epsilon.

The membrane receptors for the gibbon ape leukemia retrovirus and the amphotropic murine retrovirus serve normal cellular functions as sodium-dependent phosphate transporters (Pit-1 and Pit-2, respectively). Our earlier studies established that activation of protein kinase C (PKC) by treatment of cells with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) enhanced sodium-dependent phosphate (Na/Pi) uptake...

Transmembrane Topology of the Mammalian Slc11a2 Iron Transporter†

The mammalian Slc11a1 and Slc11a2 proteins define a large family of secondary metal transporters. Slc11a1 and Slc11a2 function as pH-dependent divalent cation transporters that play a critical role in host defenses against infections and in Fe2+ homeostasis, respectively. The position and polarity of individual transmembrane domains (TMD) of Slc11a2 were studied by an epitope tagging method bas...

Phosphate and vascular calcification: Emerging role of the sodium-dependent phosphate co-transporter PiT-1.

Elevated serum phosphate is a risk factor for vascular calcification and cardiovascular events in kidney disease as well as in the general population. Elevated phosphate levels drive vascular calcification, in part, by regulating vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) gene expression, function, and fate. The type III sodium-dependent phosphate co-transporter, PiT-1, is necessary for phosphate-induc...

Regulation of PiT-1, a sodium-dependent phosphate co-transporter in rat parathyroid glands.

A cDNA encoding an Na+-Pi co-transporter, termed rat PiT-1, has now been isolated from rat parathyroid. Expression of rat PiT-1 in Xenopus oocytes revealed that it possesses Na+-dependent Pi co-transport activity. The amount of PiT-1 mRNA in the parathyroid of vitamin D-deficient rats was reduced compared with that in normal animals, and increased markedly after administration of 1,25-dihydroxy...
