Many tumor cells produce vast amounts of lactate and acid, which have to be removed from the cell to prevent intracellular lactacidosis and suffocation of metabolism. In the present study, we show that proton-driven lactate flux is enhanced by the intracellular carbonic anhydrase CAII, which is colocalized with the monocarboxylate transporter MCT1 in MCF-7 breast cancer cells. Co-expression of MCTs with various CAII mutants in Xenopus oocytes demonstrated that CAII facilitates MCT transport activity in a process involving CAII-Glu69 and CAII-Asp72, which could function as surface proton antennae for the enzyme. CAII-Glu69 and CAII-Asp72 seem to mediate proton transfer between enzyme and transporter, but CAII-His64, the central residue of the enzyme's intramolecular proton shuttle, is not involved in proton shuttling between the two proteins. Instead, this residue mediates binding between MCT and CAII. Taken together, the results suggest that CAII features a moiety that exclusively mediates proton exchange with the MCT to facilitate transport activity.

Figure 10. Carbonic anhydrases function as proton antennae for MCTs in glycolytic cancer cells.Intracellular CAII (blue circle) is anchored to the C-terminal tail of MCT1/4 (purple structure) via CAII-His64 (yellow spot). This binding brings CAII close enough to the transporter pore to allow the shuttling of protons between the transporter and the surrounding protonatable residues (orange circles). Proton shuttling is mediated by CAII-Glu69 and CAII-Asp72 (red and green dots). Under hypoxic conditions, CAIX (green circle) binds to MCT1 and MCT4 via their chaperon CD147 (ochre structure) to facilitate the exchange of protons between transporter and extracellular protonatable residues (orange circles) via its proteoglycan-like (PG) domain in a fashion similar to that involving Glu69 and Asp72 in CAII. The necessity for this proton antenna derives from the slow diffusion of H+ within the highly buffered cytosol. Lactate, which is produced from glucose (entering the cell by facilitated diffusion via glucose transporters (light blue structure)) by glycolysis and subsequent conversion of pyruvate, quickly reaches the MCT by simple diffusion. Protons, which are produced during the hydrolysis of ATP, by contrast, diffuse very slowly within the cell. To allow fast extrusion of protons and lactate from the cell, the MCT does not extract H+ directly from the bulk cytosol but rather from an intermediate harvesting compartment made up of protonatable residues in the cell membrane and CAII. As in the cytoplasm, the diffusion of ions in the extracellular space is restricted. Therefore protons have to be removed from the extracellular side of the transporter by CAIX and shuttled to protonatable residues on the extracellular face of the cell membrane, from where they can be released to the extracellular space. By this non-catalytic mechanism, intracellular and extracellular carbonic anhydrases could cooperate non-enzymatically to facilitate proton-driven lactate flux across the cell membrane of cancer cells. |
