Diferric transferrin reduction stimulates the Na+/H+ antiport of HeLa cells
Abstract
Proton release from HeLa cells is stimulated by external oxidants for the transplasmalemma electron transport enzymes. These oxidants, such as ferricyanide and diferric transferrin, also stimulate cell growth. We now present evidence that proton release associated with the reduction of ferricyanide and diferric transferrin is through the Na+/H+ antiport. The stoichiometry of H+/e- release with diferric transferrin is over 50 to 1, which is greater than expected for oxidation of a protonated transmembrane electron carrier. Diferric transferrin induced proton release depends on external sodium and is inhibited by amiloride. Proton release is also inhibited when diferric transferrin reduction is inhibited by apotransferrin. A tightly coupled association between the redox system and the antiport is shown by sodium dependence and amiloride inhibition of diferric transferrin reduction. The results indicate a new role for ferric transferrin in growth stimulation by activation of the sodium-proton antiport.
