alpha-(Methylamino)isobutyric acid (MeAIB) insensitive Na(+)-dependent alanine transport activity in the bovine kidney cell line NBL-1 was increased upon amino acid starvation (&gt; or = 20% over control levels). When L-phenylalanine (3 mM) was included in the starvation medium the increase was further enhanced (&gt; or = 85% over control levels). In cells grown in control medium the Vmax, for MeAIB-insensitive Na+/alanine co-transport was found to be 6.0 +/- 0.7 nmol/3 min per mg (Km 41 +/- 12 microM) and for L-phenylalanine-treated amino-acid-starved cells the Vmax. was 21 +/- 5 nmol/3 min per mg (Km 92 +/- 40 microM). The increase in Vmax. was prevented by cycloheximide. Substrate specificity analysis identified the L-phenylalanine-induced transport system as System B0. [35S]Methionine labelling of cells during the amino acid starvation/phenylalanine treatments resulted in the differential labelling of a protein of 78 kDa. Northern-blot analysis using a SAAT1-specific probe revealed the presence of a new transcript (3.2 kb) in RNA extracted from cells incubated in amino acid starvation medium with L-phenylalanine included. The present findings suggest a novel means of control for System B0 by the use of physiological stress. It is also proposed that SAAT1 and System-B0 transcripts have considerable sequence similarity.
