The hepatic uptake transporters OATP1B1 (SLCO1B1) and OATP1B3 (SLCO1B3) mediate the uptake of endogenous metabolites and drugs from blood into hepatocytes. Alterations of transport function are accompanied with variations in drug plasma concentrations and the risk of adverse drug effects. Thus, knowledge on amino acids determining substrate recognition or transport kinetics are important to predict alterations in transport kinetics. Therefore, we analyzed the charged amino acids His54 and Tyr169, both located at the extracellular entry of the predicted transmembrane pore of OATP1B1. Based on a computational analysis we established HEK293 cell lines overexpressing the mutant OATP1B1 proteins HEK-OATP1B1p.H54Q, -p.H54A, -p.Y169H and -p.Y169A and analyzed protein expression, localization and transport kinetics of the four OATP1B1 substrates bromosulfophthalein, estradiaol-17?-glucuronide, taurocholate and pravastatin. Consequences on transport were detected for all mutants and these were different for each amino acid exchange and for each substrate tested. For example, the exchange H54Q resulted in reduced transport for BSP (78% of wildtype OATP1B1 transport at 0.05?M, P<0.01) with reduced affinity to this substrate (Km value increases from 0.76?M to 8.04?M) but in stimulated E217?G transport (138% compared to wildtype transport at 10?M, P<0.001). Investigating amino acid exchanges located at the extracellular entry of the transport pore of the OATP1B1 protein we demonstrated that these residues are involved in modulating transport kinetics and this participation strongly depends on the substrate and not on the physicochemical character of the investigated amino acid.
