The kinetics of binding of the mercurial sulfhydryl reagent, pCMBS (p-chloromercuribenzene sulfonate), to the extracellular site(s) at which pCMBS inhibits water and urea transport across the human red cell membrane, have previously been characterized. To determine whether pCMBS binding alters Cl- transport, we measured Cl-/NO3- exchange by fluorescence enhancement, using the dye SPQ (6-methoxy-N-(3-sulfopropyl)quinolinium). An essentially instantaneous extracellular phase of pCMBS inhibition is followed by a much slower intracellular phase, correlated with pCMBS permeation. We attribute the instantaneous phase to competitive inhibition of Cl- binding to band 3 by the pCMBS anion. The ID50 of 2.0 +/- 0.1 mM agrees with other organic sulfonates, but is very much greater than that of pCMBS inhibition of urea and water transport, showing that pCMBS reaction with water and urea transport inhibition sites has no effect on anion exchange. The intracellular inhibition by 1 mM pCMBS (1 h) is apparently non-competitive with Ki = 5.5 +/- 6.3 mM, presumably an allosteric effect of pCMBS binding to an intracellular band 3-related sulfhydryl group. After N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) treatment to block these band 3 sulfhydryl groups, there is apparent non-competitive inhibition with Ki = 2.1 +/- 1.2 mM, which suggests that pCMBS reacts with one of the NEM-insensitive sulfhydryl groups on a protein that links band 3 to the cytoskeleton, perhaps ankyrin or bands 4.1 and 4.2.
