| Abstract | Bicarbonate transporters are regulated by signaling molecules/ions such as protein kinases, ATP, and Ca2+. While phospholipids such as PIP2 can stimulate Na-H exchanger activity, little is known about phospholipid regulation of bicarbonate transporters. We used the patch-clamp technique to study the function and regulation of heterologously expressed rat NBCe1-A in excised macropatches from Xenopus laevis oocytes. Exposing the cytosolic side of inside-out macropatches to a 5% CO2/33 mM HCO3 − solution elicited a mean inward current of 14 pA in 74% of macropatches attached to pipettes (−Vp = −60 mV) containing a low-Na+, nominally HCO3 −-free solution. The current was 80–90% smaller in the absence of Na+, approximately 75% smaller in the presence of 200 μM DIDS, and absent in macropatches from H2O-injected oocytes. NBCe1-A currents exhibited time-dependent rundown that was inhibited by removing Mg2+ in the presence or absence of vanadate and F− to reduce general phosphatase activity. Applying 5 or 10 μM PIP2 (diC8) in the presence of HCO3 − induced an inward current in 54% of macropatches from NBC-expressing, but not H2O-injected oocytes. PIP2-induced currents were HCO3 −-dependent and somewhat larger following more NBCe1-A rundown, 62% smaller in the absence of Na+, and 90% smaller in the presence of 200 μM DIDS. The polycation neomycin (250–500 μM) reduced the PIP2-induced inward current by 69%; spermine (100 μM) reduced the current by 97%. Spermine, poly-D-lysine, and neomycin all reduced the baseline HCO3 −-induced inward currents by as much as 85%. In summary, PIP2 stimulates NBCe1-A activity, and phosphoinositides are regulators of bicarbonate transporters. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
