Brush-border membrane vesicles prepared from rabbit kidney cortex were incubated at 37 degrees C for 30 min with phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C. This maneuver resulted in a release of approx. 85% of the brush-border membrane-linked enzyme alkaline phosphatase as determined by its enzymatic activity. Transport of inorganic [32P]phosphate (100 microM) by the PI-specific phospholipase C-treated brush-border membrane vesicles was measured at 20-22 degrees C in the presence of an inwardly directed 100 mM Na+ gradient. Neither initial uptake rates, as estimated from 10-s uptake values (103.5 +/- 6.8%, n = 7 experiments), nor equilibrium uptake values, measured after 2 h (102 +/- 3.4%) were different from controls (100%). Control and PI-specific phospholipase C-treated brush-border membrane vesicles were extracted with chloroform/methanol to obtain a proteolipid fraction which has been shown to bind Pi with high affinity and specificity (Kessler, R.J., Vaughn, D.A. and Fanestil, D.D. (1982) J. Biol. Chem. 257, 14311-14317). Phosphate binding (at 10 microM Pi) by the extracted proteolipid was measured. No significant difference in binding was observed between the two types of preparations: 31.0 +/- 9.37 in controls and 29.8 +/- 8.3 nmol/mg protein in the proteolipid extracted from PI-specific phospholipase C-treated brush-border membrane vesicles. It appears therefore that alkaline phosphatase activity is essential neither for Pi transport by brush-border membrane vesicles nor for Pi binding by proteolipid extracted from brush-border membrane. These results dissociate alkaline phosphatase activity, but not brush-border membrane vesicle transport of phosphate, from phosphate binding by proteolipid.
