AB An iodinated derivative of forskolin, 6-O-[[2-[3-(4-azido-3-[125I] iodophenyl)propionamido]ethyl]carbamyl]forskolin ([125I]6-AIPP-Fsk), photolabels the multidrug efflux pump P-glycoprotein in membranes prepared from the multidrug-resistant cell lines KB-V1 and KB-C1. The labeling site for [125I]6-AIPP-Fsk was localized by immunoprecipitation of tryptic fragments of P-glycoprotein labeled in KB-C1 membranes. A 6-kDa, photolabeled, tryptic fragment was immunoprecipitated by antiserum raised against residues 348-419 of P-glycoprotein, PEPG9, but not by antisera raised against flanking regions PEPG7 and PEPG11. A peptide that corresponds to residues 343-359 of P-glycoprotein inhibited immunoprecipitation of the 6-kDa fragment by antiserum against PEPG9 but had no effect on the immunoprecipitation of photolabeled fragments by antiserum against PEPG7. A second peptide, corresponding to residues 360-376, had no effect on the immunoprecipitation by antiserum against PEPG9. [125I]6-AIPP-Fsk labels the carboxyl-terminal half of P-glycoprotein, because low molecular mass tryptic fragments were immunoprecipitated by three carboxyl-terminal antisera. Therefore, [125I]6-AIPP-Fsk labels both halves of P-glycoprotein, and labeling in the amino-terminal half can be localized to residues 291-359, which span proposed transmembrane regions 5 and 6. KB-V1 membranes photolabeled with [125I]6-AIPP-Fsk and [125I]iodoarylazidoprazosin were digested with either Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease or chymotrypsin and had similar digestion patterns, suggesting that the two drugs label the same sites on P-glycoprotein.
