Abstract
Targeting of water channels in renal epithelia may involve trafficking of clathrin-coated vesicles. We have isolated and measured the osmotic water permeability (Pf) of purified clathrin-coated vesicles from bovine kidney cortex and inner medulla, and bovine brain, a tissue not expected to contain "water channels." Brain-coated vesicles had a diameter of 80 nm in negatively stained preparations. Pf was measured by a stopped-flow light scattering technique. In brain-coated vesicles, water transport was functionally homogeneous with a low Pf of 0.0016 +/- 0.0001 cm/s (seven preparations, 23 degrees C). Pf was independent of osmotic gradient size (25-300 mOsm), not inhibited by mercurials, and not altered by removal of the clathrin coat. The activation energy (Ea) for Pf was high (11 +/- 1 kcal/mol less than 34 degrees C, 17 +/- 2 kcal/mol greater than 34 degrees C). Therefore, water channels are absent from brain-coated vesicles. In contrast, there were two functional populations of vesicles in coated vesicle preparations from both kidney cortex and medulla. One population of vesicles had low water permeability and no water channels, whereas a second population had high Pf (0.02 cm/s, 21 degrees C) that was inhibited by HgCl2, and low Ea (2-3 kcal/mol). The fraction of vesicles with high Pf was 52 +/- 3% (S.D., n = 3, cortical vesicles) and 26 +/- 3% (medullary vesicles). These results provide evidence that functional water channels are not present in clathrin-coated vesicles from the brain, whereas they are found in a population of coated vesicles from kidney cortex and medulla, tissues in which water channels are recycled between the plasma membrane, and an intracellular compartment.
