Table 1. Effect of clotrimazole on kinetics of wild-type OATP1B3 in the absence and presence of the non-transporting OATP1B3-K41C.
Transporter | E17βG | E17βG + 30μM clotrimazole | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Km (μM) | Vmax (pmol/mg protein x min-1) | Km (μM) | Vmax (pmol/mg protein x min-1) | |||
WT-OATP1B3 | 7.1 ± 0.9 | 78 ± 3.3 | 3.3 ± 1.0 | 107 ± 8.3 | ||
WT-OATP1B3 + OATP1B3-K41C | 5.5 ± 1.7 | 48 ± 4.5 | 3.6 ± 1.3 | 68 ± 6.5 |
HEK293 cells were transfected with 500ng of His-tagged OATP1B3 (WT-OATP1B3) or 250ng of His-tagged OATP1B3 plus 250ng of His-tagged OATP1B3-K41C. Kinetic parameters were determined based on the 30 secs uptake of 1, 5, 10, 20, 30 and 50μM E17βG in the absence or presence of 30μM clotrimazole.
