The neutral- and basic-amino-acid-transport glycoprotein NBAT (rBAT, D2) expressed in renal and jejunal brush-border membranes interacts with the b(0,+)AT permease to produce a heteromeric transporter effecting amino acid and cystine absorption. NBAT mutations result in type I cystinuria. The b(0,+)AT permease is presumed to be the catalytic subunit, but we have been investigating the possibility that cysteine residues within the C-terminus of NBAT are also important for expression of transport function. NBAT mutants were produced with combinations of Cys(664/671/683)-->Ala substitutions. Mutants with Cys(664)-->Ala show decreased arginine and cystine transport and specifically lose sensitivity to inhibition of transport by the thiol-group reagent N-ethylmaleimide (NEM). We suggest that the C-terminus of NBAT may have a direct role in the mechanism of System b(0,+) transport (the major transport activity defective in type I cystinuria) and that Cys(664) of NBAT is the major target for NEM-induced inactivation of the transport mechanism.
