SUR1 is an ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter with a novel function. In contrast to other ABC proteins, it serves as the regulatory subunit of an ion channel. The ATP-sensitive (K ATP ) channel is an octameric complex of four pore-forming Kir6.2 subunits and four regulatory SUR1 subunits, and it links cell metabolism to electrical activity in many cell types. ATPase activity at the nucleotide-binding domains of SUR results in an increase in K ATP channel open probability. Conversely, ATP binding to Kir6.2 closes the channel. Metabolic regulation is achieved by the balance between these two opposing effects. Precisely how SUR1 talks to Kir6.2 remains unclear, but recent studies have identified some residues and domains that are involved in both physical and functional interactions between the two proteins. The importance of these interactions is exemplified by the fact that impaired regulation of Kir6.2 by SUR1 results in human disease, with loss-of-function SUR1 mutations causing congenital hyperinsulinism and gain-of-function SUR1 mutations leading to neonatal diabetes. This paper reviews recent data on the regulation of Kir6.2 by SUR1 and considers the molecular mechanisms by which SUR1 mutations produce disease.

AbstractThe plant hormone auxin is distributed in the plant by a sophisticated network of importers and exporters, including members of the ABCB subclass of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. ABCB-mediated auxin transport is controlled by Twisted Dwarf1, a member of the FK506-binding protein (FKBP) family. Here, we summarize current knowledge on ABC transporter regulation by FKBPs, which seems to be conserved over kingdoms and ABC subfamilies arguing for conserved mechanism of plant and mammalian post-translational transporter regulation.

2-(1-Pyrenoyl)benzoic acid is shown to be a highly active inhibitor of auxin transport by its ability to prevent the polar transport of indoleacetic acid in bean petioles. It is comparable in activity to other known auxin transport inhibitors, and also affects apical dominance and the geotropic and phototropic responses.
