Characterization of Plasma Membrane Localization and Phosphorylation Status of Organic Anion Transporting Polypeptide (OATP) 1B1 c.521 T>C Nonsynonymous Single-Nucleotide Polymorphism.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Membrane transport protein organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP) 1B1 mediates hepatic uptake of many drugs (e.g. statins). The OATP1B1 c.521 T > C (p. V174A) polymorphism has reduced transport activity. Conflicting in vitro results exist regarding whether V174A-OATP1B1 has reduced plasma membrane localization; no such data has been reported in physiologically relevant human liver tissue. Other potential changes, such as phosphorylation, of the V174A-OATP1B1 protein have not been explored. Current studies characterized the plasma membrane localization of V174A-OATP1B1 in genotyped human liver tissue and cell culture and compared the phosphorylation status of V174A- and wild-type (WT)-OATP1B1.

Methods

Localization of V174A- and WT-OATP1B1 were determined in OAT
