TheIP3receptorbinding protein released withinositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IRBIT) plays important roles in the regulation of intracellular Ca2+signaling and intracellular pH. The mammals express two IRBIT paralogs, i.e., IRBIT1 (encoded byAHCYL1) and IRBIT2 (encoded byAHCYL2). The clawed frogXenopus laevisoocyte is widely used for biophysical studies on ion channels and transporters. It remains unknown whether endogenous IRBIT is expressed inXenopusoocytes. Here, we cloned from frog oocyte irbit2.L and irbit2.S, orthologs of mammalian IRBIT2. When over-expressed, the frog IRBITs powerfully stimulate the electrogenic Na+/HCO3–cotransporter NBCe1-B as mouse IRBIT2-V2 does. Expression of an isolated Nt fragment of NBCe1-B containing the IRBIT-binding domain greatly decreases NBCe1-B activity in oocytes, suggesting that the basal activity of NBCe1-B contains a large component derived from the stimulation by endogenous frog IRBIT. The frog IRBITs are highly homologous to the mammalian ones in the carboxyl-terminal region, but varies greatly in the amino-terminal (Nt) appendage. Interestingly, truncation study showed that the Nt appendage of IRBIT1 and the long Nt appendage of IRBIT2-V2 modestly enhance, whereas the short Nt appendage of IRBIT2-V4 greatly inhibits the functional interaction between IRBIT and NBCe1-B. Finally, Ala-substitution of Ser68, a key phosphorylation site in the PEST domain of IRBIT, causes distinct functional consequences depending on the structural context of the Nt appendage in different IRBIT isoforms. We conclude that the Nt appendage of IRBITs is not necessary for, but plays an important regulatory role in the functional interaction between IRBIT and NBCe1-B.
