PG - 127-32 AB - Functional evidence presented by others indicates that rat slow-twitch skeletal muscle lacks typical Na(+)-K(+)-2Cl- cotransporter activity, as determined by loop diuretic-sensitive potassium transport. This report presents a unique 5' mRNA sequence of a Na(+)-K(+)-2Cl- cotransporter-like molecule expressed in the rat soleus muscle and the deduced N-terminus of the protein. In addition to its unique 5' mRNA sequence, the coding region of the N-terminus is quite short compared with other known Na(+)-K(+)-2Cl- cotransporters. Nonetheless, the mRNA possesses conserved cotransporter-like membrane spanning domains, though one domains corresponding to a reported exon is divergent. Therefore, it appears that skeletal muscle does express a Na(+)-K(+)-2Cl- cotransporter-like mRNA that may code for a protein with atypical Na(+)-K(+)-2Cl- cotransporter properties.
