Alkylsulfonates as probes of uncoupling protein transport mechanism: ion pair transport demonstrates that H+ translocation by UCP1 is not necessary for uncoupling

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The mechanism of fatty acid-dependent uncoupling by mitochondrial uncoupling proteins (UCP) is still in debate. We have hypothesized that the anionic fatty acid head group is translocated by UCP, and the proton is transported electroneutrally in the bilayer by flip-flop of the protonated fatty acid. Alkylsulfonates are useful as probes of the UCP transport mechanism. They are analogues of fatty acids, and they are transported by UCP1, UCP2, and UCP3. We show that undecanesulfonate and laurate are mutually competitive inhibitors, supporting the hypothesis that fatty acid anion is transported by UCP1. Alkylsulfonates cannot be protonated because of their low pK(a), consequently, they cannot catalyze electroneutral proton transport in the bilayer and cannot support uncoupling by UCP. We report for the first time that propranolol forms permeant ion pairs with the alkylsulfonates, thereby removing this restriction.
