Regulation of Taurine Transport Systems by Protein Kinase CK2 in Mammalian Cells

Abstract: Maintaining cell volume is critical for cellular function yet shift in cell volume is a prerequisite for mitosis and apoptosis. The ubiquitously and evolutionary conserved serine/threonine kinase CK2 promotes cell survival and suppresses apoptosis. The present review describes how mammalian cells regulate the cellular content of the major cellular organic osmolyte, taurine with emphasis on CK2 mediated regulation of active taurine uptake and volume-sensitive taurine release. Furthermore, we discuss how CK2-med… Show more

“…CK2-mediated phosphorylation of PT inhibits the ER exit of PT protein, leading to reduced phosphate uptake ability in rice. These findings expand our understanding of CK2 function in plant growth and development and provide evidence for specific protein kinase effects on transmembrane proteins in plants as in animals (Ganley et al, 2001;Scott et al, 2006;Lambert and Hansen, 2011;Fu et al, 2013).…”

“…Taurine (␤-amino-ethane sulfonic acid) is a metabolic inert amino acid that plays an important role in cell volume control, cellular metabolism, antioxidative defense, and initiation/progression of the apoptotic process (17, 23, 27-29, 31, 33, 54, 56, 57). Cellular taurine content is generally a balance between active uptake via the Na ϩ -and Cl Ϫ -dependent taurine transporter (TauT), passive release via volume-sensitive and volume-insensitive transporters (28), and in some cells (liver, pancreas, and testis) synthesis from cystein/methionine (31). Acute modulation of TauT activity involves Ser/Thr kinases (PKA, PKC, and CK2) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) (12,13,22,31,40,41,63), whereas long-term regulation of TauT activity involves transcriptional regulation by cellular osmo-sensing proteins (TonEBP, tonicity end-binding protein) and amino-sensing kinases (mTOR, mammalian target of rapamycin) (9,27,30,31).…”

“…With the use of EATC and the human lung epithelial cell line A549, it has been demonstrated that swelling-induced activation of VSOAC involves phospholipase A 2 (PLA 2 ) and 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) activity as well as binding of eicosanoids to the cysteinyl leukotriene 1 receptor CysLT1 (19,27). Once activated VSOAC activity is modulated by phosphatases, i.e., inhibition of vanadate-sensitive protein tyrosine phosphatases by ROS, which are generated in a variety of cells in response to osmotic perturbation, or inhibition of the phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-trisphosphate phosphatase PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homologue), leads to significant potentiation of taurine loss following exposure to hypotonic conditions (12,26,28,31). Key compounds of VSOAC have recently been identified as being members of the leucine-rich repeat containing 8 (LRRC8) family (49,62).…”

“…The cellular taurine content is a balance between endogenous synthesis, active uptake via 1) the Na ϩ -and Cl Ϫ -dependent transporter TauT (SLC6A6) or 2) the H ϩ -coupled, pH-dependent, Na ϩ -and Cl Ϫ -independent amino acid transporter PAT1 (SLC36A1), and passive release via 1) a volume-sensitive leak pathway, activated by osmotic cell swelling, designated volume-sensitive organic anion channel (VSOAC) (34,36); or 2) a volume-insensitive leak pathways activated during apoptosis (55), cholesterol depletion (67), and anoxia (49). The cellular taurine concentration ranges from 10 mM, e.g., in fibroblasts, to 40 -50 mM in Ehrlich ascites cells (34).…”

“…Translocation of one taurine molecule across the plasma membrane via TauT involves two to three Na ions and acute modulation of TauT activity by protein kinases (PKA, PKC, CK2) and ROS involves shift in TauT's substrate affinity, transport capacity, and/or the Na:taurine stoichiometry (13,14,19,45,69). Passive taurine release from cells via VSOAC activation involves 1) mobilization of arachidonic acid from the nuclear envelope by cell-specific PLA 2 subtypes (52,53), ROS generation by NADPH oxidases (8,34), and fatty acid oxidation to leukotrienes by 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) (38); 2) increased tyrosine kinase activity (34,51); and 3) activation of protein kinases normally related to growth factor signaling, i.e., phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), Akt, and glycogen synthase kinase 3␤ (GSK3␤) (36).…”
