The UT-A1 urea transporter is crucial to the kidney's ability to generate
concentrated urine. Native UT-A1 from kidney inner medulla (IM) is a heavily
glycosylated protein with two glycosylation forms of 97 and 117 kDa. In diabetes,
UT-A1 protein abundance, particularly the 117 kD isoform, is significantly
increased corresponding to an increased urea permeability in perfused IM
collecting ducts, which plays an important role in preventing the osmotic
diuresis caused by glucosuria. However, how the glycan carbohydrate structure
change and the glycan related enzymes regulate kidney urea transport activity,
particularly under diabetic condition, is largely unknown. In this study, using
sugar-specific binding lectins, we found that the carbohydrate structure of UT-A1
is changed with increased amounts of sialic acid, fucose, and increased glycan
branching under diabetic conditions. These changes were accompanied by altered
UT-A1 association with the galectin proteins, ?-galactoside glycan binding
proteins. To explore the molecular basis of the alterations of glycan structures,
the highly sensitive next generation sequencing (NGS) technology, Illumina
RNA-seq, was employed to analyze genes involved in the process of UT-A1
glycosylation using streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rat kidney.
Differential gene expression analysis combining with quantitative PCR revealed
that expression of a number of important glycosylation related genes were changed
under diabetic conditions. These genes include the glycosyltransferase genes
Mgat4a, the sialylation enzymes St3gal1 and St3gal4 and glycan binding protein
galectin-3, -5, -8, and -9. In contrast, although highly expressed in kidney IM,
the glycosyltransferase genes Mgat1, Mgat2, and fucosyltransferase Fut8, did not
show any changes. CONCLUSIONS: In diabetes, not only is UT-A1 protein abundance
increased but the protein's glycan structure is also significantly changed. UT-A1
protein becomes highly sialylated, fucosylated and branched. Consistently, a
number of crucial glycosylation related genes are changed under diabetic
conditions. The alteration of these genes may contribute to changes in the UT-A1
glycan structure and therefore modulate kidney urea transport activity and
alleviate osmotic diuresis caused by glucosuria in diabetes.
