摘要

First published December 5, 2007; doi:10.1152/ajpcell.00238.2007.-Magnesium is an essential metal, but few selective transporters have been identified at the molecular level. Microarray analysis was used to identify two similar transcripts that are upregulated with low extracellular Mg~(2+). The corresponding cDNAs encode proteins of 131 and 123 amino acids with two predicted transmembrane domains. The two separate gene products comprise the family that we have termed "membrane Mg~(2+) transporters" (MMgTs), because the proteins reside in the membrane and mediate Mg~(2+) transport. When expressed in Kenopus laevis oocytes, MMgTl and MMgT2 mediate Mg~(2+) transport as determined with two-electrode voltage-clamp analysis and fluorescence measurements. Transport is saturable Mg~(2+) uptake with Michaelis constants of 1.47 +- 0.17 and 0.58 +- 0.07 mM, respectively. Real-time RT-PCR demonstrated that MMgT mRNAs are present in a wide variety of cells. Subcellular localization with immunohistochemistry determined that the MMgTl-hemagglutinin (HA) and MMgT2-V5 fusion proteins reside in the Golgi complex and post-Golgi vesicles, including the early endosomes in COS-7 cells transfected with the respective tagged constructs. Interestingly, MMgTl-HA and MMgT2-V5 were found in separate populations of post-Golgi vesicles. MMgTl and MMgT2 mRNA increased by about threefold, respectively, in kidney epithelial cells cultured in low-magnesium media relative to normal media and in the kidney cortex of mice maintained on low-magnesium diets compared with those animals consuming normal diets. With the increase in transcripts, there was an apparent increase in MMgTl and MMgT2 protein in the Golgi and post-Golgi vesicles. These experiments suggest that MMgT proteins may provide regulated pathways for Mg~(2+) transport in the Golgi and post-Golgi organelles of epithelium-derived cells.
