We have measured polyamine uptake in COS7 cells for putrescine, spermidine, and spermine, obtaining K(m) values of 4.5, 1.0, and 0.8 mum, respectively. Treatment of nonconfluent cells with cycloheximide stimulated polyamine uptake and prevented the inhibitory effect found in cells preloaded with polyamines, suggesting the existence of a feedback repression mechanism mediated by antizymes. Transient transfected cells with mutated antizyme forms of AZ1, AZ2, and AZ3, which do not require frameshifting, showed a total blockade of polyamine uptake. Transfection of COS7 cells with mouse or human AZIN2, a novel member of the antizyme inhibitor family, recently characterized by our group, markedly stimulated polyamine uptake and counteracted the action of any of the three antizymes in co-transfected cells. The stimulatory effect of AZIN2 on polyamine uptake was abrogated when the putative antizyme binding sequence, formed by residues 117-140 in AZIN2, was deleted. Real time reverse transcription-PCR analysis of antizyme inhibitor transcripts revealed that in brain and testes AZIN2 is more expressed than AZIN1, especially in the testes where the relative expression was about 25-fold higher. Collectively, our results clearly indicate that AZIN2 affects polyamine homeostasis not only by increasing ornithine decarboxylase activity but also by stimulating polyamine uptake, through negating the inhibitory effect of the antizymes. This finding may have physiological relevance, mostly in testes where AZ3 and AZIN2 are mainly expressed."xsd:string |
