Membrane-permeable calmodulin inhibitors, such as the napthalenesulfonamide derivatives W-7/W-13, trifluoperazine, and calmidazolium, are used widely to investigate the role of calcium/calmodulin (Ca2+/CaM) in living cells. If two chemically different inhibitors (e.g. W-7 and trifluoperazine) produce similar effects, investigators often assume the effects are due to CaM inhibition. Zeta potential measurements, however, show that these amphipathic weak bases bind to phospholipid vesicles at the same concentrations as they inhibit Ca2+/CaM; this suggests that they also bind to the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane, reducing its negative electrostatic surface potential. This change will cause electrostatically bound clusters of basic residues on peripheral (e.g. Src and K-Ras4B) and integral (e.g. epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)) proteins to translocate from the membrane to the cytoplasm. We measured inhibitor-mediated translocation of a simple basic peptide corresponding to the calmodulin-binding juxtamembrane region of the EGFR on model membranes; W-7/W-13 causes translocation of this peptide from membrane to solution, suggesting that caution must be exercised when interpreting the results obtained with these inhibitors in living cells. We present evidence that they exert dual effects on autophosphorylation of EGFR; W-13 inhibits epidermal growth factor-dependent EGFR autophosphorylation under different experimental conditions, but in the absence of epidermal growth factor, W-13 stimulates autophosphorylation of the receptor in four different cell types. Our interpretation is that the former effect is due to W-13 inhibition of Ca2+/CaM, but the latter results could be due to binding of W-13 to the plasma membrane. 相似文献

Calmodulin (CaM) is the major component of calcium signaling pathways mediating the action of various effectors. Transient increases in the intracellular calcium level triggered by a variety of stimuli lead to the formation of Ca(2+)/CaM complexes, which interact with and activate target proteins. In the present study the role of Ca(2+)/CaM in the regulation of the ligand-dependent activation of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) has been examined in living cells. We show that addition of different cell permeable CaM antagonists to cultured cells or loading cells with a Ca(2+) chelator inhibited ligand-dependent EGFR auto(trans)phosphorylation. This occurred also in the presence of inhibitors of protein kinase C, CaM-dependent protein kinase II and calcineurin, which are known Ca(2+)- and/or Ca(2+)/CaM-dependent EGFR regulators, pointing to a direct effect of Ca(2+)/CaM on the receptor. Furthermore, we demonstrate that down-regulation of CaM in conditional CaM knock out cells stably transfected with the human EGFR decreased its ligand-dependent phosphorylation. Substitution of six basic amino acid residues within the CaM-binding domain (CaM-BD) of the EGFR by alanine resulted in a decreased phosphorylation of the receptor and of its downstream substrate phospholipase Cγ1. These results support the hypothesis that Ca(2+)/CaM regulates the EGFR activity by directly interacting with the CaM-BD of the receptor located at its cytosolic juxtamembrane region. 相似文献

The inner leaflet of a typical mammalian plasma membrane contains 20-30% univalent PS (phosphatidylserine) and 1% multivalent PtdIns(4,5)P(2). Numerous proteins have clusters of basic (or basic/hydrophobic) residues that bind to these acidic lipids. The intracellular effector CaM (calmodulin) can reverse this binding on a wide variety of proteins, including MARCKS (myristoylated alanine-rich C kinase substrate), GAP43 (growth-associated protein 43, also known as neuromodulin), gravin, GRK5 (G-protein-coupled receptor kinase 5), the NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptor and the ErbB family. We used the first principles of physics, incorporating atomic models and the Poisson-Boltzmann equation, to describe how the basic effector domain of MARCKS binds electrostatically to acidic lipids on the plasma membrane. The theoretical calculations show the basic cluster produces a local positive electrostatic potential that should laterally sequester PtdIns(4,5)P(2), even when univalent acidic lipids are present at a physiologically relevant 100-fold excess; four independent experimental measurements confirm this prediction. Ca(2+)/CaM binds with high affinity (K(d) approximately 10nM) to this domain and releases the PtdIns(4,5)P(2). MARCKS, a major PKC (protein kinase C) substrate, is present at concentrations comparable with those of PtdIns(4,5)P(2) (approx. 10 microM) in many cell types. Thus MARCKS can act as a reversible PtdIns(4,5)P(2) buffer, binding PtdIns(4,5)P(2) in a quiescent cell, and releasing it locally when the intracellular Ca(2+) concentration increases. This reversible sequestration is important because PtdIns(4,5)P(2) plays many roles in cell biology. Less is known about the role of CaM-mediated reversible membrane binding of basic/hydrophobic clusters for the other proteins. 相似文献

The calmodulin (CaM)-binding domain of isoform 4b of the plasma membrane Ca(2+) -ATPase (PMCA) pump is represented by peptide C28. CaM binds to either PMCA or C28 by a mechanism in which the primary anchor residue Trp-1093 binds to the C-terminal lobe of the extended CaM molecule, followed by collapse of CaM with the N-terminal lobe binding to the secondary anchor Phe-1110 (Juranic, N., Atanasova, E., Filoteo, A. G., Macura, S., Prendergast, F. G., Penniston, J. T., and Strehler, E. E. (2010) J. Biol. Chem. 285, 4015-4024). This is a relatively rapid reaction, with an apparent half-time of ~1 s. The dissociation of CaM from PMCA4b or C28 is much slower, with an overall half-time of ~10 min. Using targeted molecular dynamics, we now show that dissociation of Ca(2+)-CaM from C28 may occur by a pathway in which Trp-1093, although deeply embedded in a pocket in the C-terminal lobe of CaM, leaves first. The dissociation begins by relatively rapid release of Trp-1093, followed by very slow release of Phe-1110, removal of C28, and return of CaM to its conformation in the free state. Fluorescence measurements and molecular dynamics calculations concur in showing that this alternative path of release of the PMCA4b CaM-binding domain is quite different from that of binding. The intermediate of dissociation with exposed Trp-1093 has a long lifetime (minutes) and may keep the PMCA primed for activation. 相似文献

Peripherin/rds (p/rds), an integral membrane protein from the transmembrane 4 (TMF4) superfamily, possesses a multi-functional C-terminal domain that plays crucial roles in rod outer segment (ROS) disk renewal and structure. Here, we report that the calcium binding protein calmodulin (CaM) binds to the C-terminal domain of p/rds. Fluorescence spectroscopy reveals Ca2+-dependent association of CaM with a polypeptide corresponding to the C-terminal domain of p/rds. The fluorescence anisotropy of the polypeptide upon CaM titration yields a dissociation constant (KD) of 320 +/- 150 nM. The results of the fluorescence experiments were confirmed by GST-pull down analyses in which a GST-p/rds C-terminal domain fusion protein was shown to pull down CaM in a calcium-dependent manner. Moreover, molecular modeling and sequence predictions suggest that the CaM binding domain resides in a p/rds functional hot spot, between residues E314 and G329. Predictions were confirmed by peptide competition studies and a GST-p/rds C-terminal domain construct in which the putative Ca2+/CaM binding site was scrambled. This GST-polypeptide did not associate with Ca2+/CaM. This putative calmodulin domain is highly conserved between human, mouse, rat, and bovine p/rds. Finally, the binding of Ca2+/CaM inhibited fusion between ROS disk and ROS plasma membranes as well as p/rds C-terminal-domain-induced fusion in model membrane studies. These results offer a new mechanism for the modulation of p/rds function. 相似文献

Estradiol receptor (ER) activity requires interaction with hormone and specific DNA sequence. We now report that this receptor also interacts with calmodulin (CaM), the major intracellular mediator of Ca2+ action in eucaryotic cells. This interaction has been observed using both CaM-Sepharose and [125I]CaM. Crude and purified [3H]ER complex show high affinity interaction with CaM-Sepharose [dissociation constant (Kd) 0.12 and 0.16 nM, respectively]. Unoccupied receptor shows a similar high affinity interaction. Tamoxifen-ER complex also binds to CaM-Sepharose. Several findings show that this CaM-ER interaction is very specific: lack of this interaction has been observed in the presence of trifluoperazine, an inhibitor of protein binding to CaM; the receptor binds neither Sepharose, nor parvalbumin-Sepharose; competition of interaction of [3H]ER complex with CaM-Sepharose is observed by cold ER complex; rat liver glucocorticoid receptor does not bind to CaM-Sepharose. The interaction of purified receptor with 125I-labeled CaM has been detected by various techniques: centrifugation through sucrose gradient of CaM incubated with receptor shows that CaM binds to a protein forming a complex sedimenting at 5 S. This complex is shifted to the 7.5 S region by a monoclonal antireceptor antibody. Incubation of CaM with receptor followed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis fluorography of the immunoprecipitated receptor shows that [125I]CaM coprecipitates with the receptor. Competition of this interaction by an excess of cold CaM is observed. Interaction of the receptor with CaM is also observed by the overlay technique.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The ubiquitous intracellular Ca(2+) sensor calmodulin (CaM) regulates numerous proteins involved in cellular signaling of G protein-coupled receptors, but most known interactions between GPCRs and CaM occur downstream of the receptor. Using a sequence-based motif search, we have identified the third intracellular loop of the opioid receptor family as a possible direct contact point for interaction with CaM, in addition to its established role in G protein activation. Peptides derived from the third intracellular loop of the mu-opioid (OP(3)) receptor strongly bound CaM and were able to reduce binding interactions observed between CaM and immunopurified OP(3) receptor. Functionally, CaM reduced basal and agonist-stimulated (35)S-labeled guanosine 5'-3-O-(thio)triphosphate incorporation, a measure of G protein activation, in membranes containing recombinant OP(3) receptor. Changes in CaM membrane levels as a result of overexpression or antisense CaM suppression inversely affected basal and agonist-induced G protein activation. The ability of CaM to abolish high affinity binding sites of an agonist at OP(3) further supports the hypothesis of a direct interaction between CaM and opioid receptors. An OP(3) receptor mutant with a Lys(273) --> Ala substitution (K273A-OP(3)), an amino acid predicted to play a critical role in CaM binding based on motif structure, was found to be unaffected by changes in CaM levels but coupled more efficiently to G proteins than the wild-type receptor. Stimulation of both the OP(1) (delta-opioid) and OP(3) wild-type receptors, but not the K273A-OP(3) mutant, induced release of CaM from the plasma membrane. These results suggest that CaM directly competes with G proteins for binding to opioid receptors and that CaM may itself serve as an independent second messenger molecule that is released upon receptor stimulation. 相似文献

Signaling by D(2)-dopamine receptors in neurons likely proceeds in the presence of Ca(2+) oscillations. We describe here the biochemical basis for a cross-talk between intracellular Ca(2+) and the D(2) receptor. By activation of calmodulin (CaM), Ca(2+) directly inhibits the D(2) receptor; this conclusion is based on the following observations: (i) The receptor contains a CaM-binding motif in the NH(2)-terminal end of the third loop, a domain involved in activating G(i/o). A peptide fragment encompassing this domain (D2N) bound dansylated CaM in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner (K(D) approximately 0.1 micrometer). (ii) Activation of purified Galpha(i1) by D2N, and D(2) receptor-promoted GTPgammaS (guanosine 5'-(3-O-thio)triphosphate) binding in membranes was suppressed by Ca(2+)/CaM (IC(50) approximately 0.1 micrometer). (iii) If Ca(2+) influx was elicited in D(2) receptor-expressing HEK293 cells, agonist-dependent inhibition of cAMP formation decreased. This effect was not seen with other G(i)-coupled receptors (A(1)-adenosine and Mel(1A)-melatonin receptor). (iv) The D(2) receptor was retained by immobilized CaM and radiolabeled CaM was co-immunoprecipitated with the receptor. Specifically, inhibition by CaM does not result from uncoupling the D(2) receptor from its cognate G protein(s); rather, CaM directly targets the D(2) receptor to block the receptor-operated G protein activation switch. 相似文献

Eps15 is a substrate for the tyrosine kinase of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and is characterized by the presence of a novel protein:protein interaction domain, the EH domain. Eps15 also stably binds the clathrin adaptor protein complex AP-2. Previous work demonstrated an essential role for eps15 in receptor-mediated endocytosis. In this study we show that, upon activation of the EGFR kinase, eps15 undergoes dramatic relocalization consisting of 1) initial relocalization to the plasma membrane and 2) subsequent colocalization with the EGFR in various intracellular compartments of the endocytic pathway, with the notable exclusion of coated vesicles. Relocalization of eps15 is independent of its binding to the EGFR or of binding of the receptor to AP-2. Furthermore, eps15 appears to undergo tyrosine phosphorylation both at the plasma membrane and in a nocodazole-sensitive compartment, suggesting sustained phosphorylation in endocytic compartments. Our results are consistent with a model in which eps15 undergoes cycles of association:dissociation with membranes and suggest multiple roles for this protein in the endocytic pathway. 相似文献

The subcellular localization of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) in polarized epithelial cells profoundly affects the activity of the intracellular signaling pathways activated after EGF ligand binding. Therefore, changes in EGFR localization and signaling are implicated in various human diseases, including different types of cancer. We have performed the first in vivo EGFR localization screen in an animal model by observing the expression of the EGFR ortholog LET-23 in the vulval epithelium of live C. elegans larvae. After systematically testing all genes known to produce an aberrant vulval phenotype, we have identified 81 genes regulating various aspects of EGFR localization and expression. In particular, we have found that ERM-1, the sole C. elegans Ezrin/Radixin/Moesin homolog, regulates EGFR localization and signaling in the vulval cells. ERM-1 interacts with the EGFR at the basolateral plasma membrane in a complex distinct from the previously identified LIN-2/LIN-7/LIN-10 receptor localization complex. We propose that ERM-1 binds to and sequesters basolateral LET-23 EGFR in an actin-rich inactive membrane compartment to restrict receptor mobility and signaling. In this manner, ERM-1 prevents the immediate activation of the entire pool of LET-23 EGFR and permits the generation of a long-lasting inductive signal. The regulation of receptor localization thus serves to fine-tune the temporal activation of intracellular signaling pathways. 相似文献

The Ca2+-activated Cl channel anoctamin-1 (Ano1; Tmem16A) plays a variety of physiological roles, including epithelial fluid secretion. Ano1 is activated by increases in intracellular Ca2+, but there is uncertainty whether Ca2+ binds directly to Ano1 or whether phosphorylation or additional Ca2+-binding subunits like calmodulin (CaM) are required. Here we show that CaM is not necessary for activation of Ano1 by Ca2+ for the following reasons. (a) Exogenous CaM has no effect on Ano1 currents in inside-out excised patches. (b) Overexpression of Ca2+-insensitive mutants of CaM have no effect on Ano1 currents, whereas they eliminate the current mediated by the small-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ (SK2) channel. (c) Ano1 does not coimmunoprecipitate with CaM, whereas SK2 does. Furthermore, Ano1 binds very weakly to CaM in pull-down assays. (d) Ano1 is activated in excised patches by low concentrations of Ba2+, which does not activate CaM. In addition, we conclude that reversible phosphorylation/dephosphorylation is not required for current activation by Ca2+ because the current can be repeatedly activated in excised patches in the absence of ATP or other high-energy compounds. Although Ano1 is blocked by the CaM inhibitor trifluoperazine (TFP), we propose that TFP inhibits the channel in a CaM-independent manner because TFP does not inhibit Ano1 when applied to the cytoplasmic side of excised patches. These experiments lead us to conclude that CaM is not required for activation of Ano1 by Ca2+. Although CaM is not required for channel opening by Ca2+, work of other investigators suggests that CaM may have effects in modulating the biophysical properties of the channel. 相似文献

Fas (APO-1/CD95) is a cell surface receptor that initiates apoptotic pathways, and its cytoplasmic domain interacts with various molecules suggesting that Fas signaling is complex and regulated by multiple proteins. Calmodulin (CaM) is an intracellular Ca(2+)-binding protein, and it mediates many of the effects of Ca2+. Here, we demonstrate that CaM binds to Fas directly and identify the CaM-binding site on the cytoplasmic death domain (DD) of Fas. Fas binds to CaM-Sepharose and is co-immunoprecipitated with CaM. Other death receptors, such as tumor necrosis factor receptor, DR4, and DR5 do not bind to CaM. The interaction between Fas and CaM is Ca(2+)-dependent. Deletion mapping analysis with various GST-fused Fas cytoplasmic domain fragments revealed that the fragment containing helices 1, 2, and 3 of the Fas DD has the CaM-binding ability. Sequence analysis of this fragment predicted a potential CaM-binding site in helix 2 and connected loops. A valine 254 to asparagine mutation in this region, which is analogous to the identified mutant allele of Fas in lpr mice that have a deficiency in Fas-mediated apoptosis, showed reduced CaM binding. Computer modeling of the interaction between CaM and helix 2 of the Fas DD predicted that amino acids, which are important for Fas-CaM binding, and point mutations of these amino acids caused reduced Fas-CaM binding. The interaction between Fas and CaM is increased approximately 2-fold early upon Fas activation (at 30 min) and is decreased to approximately 50% of control at 2 h. These findings suggest a novel function of CaM in Fas-mediated apoptosis. 相似文献

The Ca2+ sensor calmodulin (CaM) regulates numerous proteins involved in G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling. CaM binds directly to some GPCRs, including the dopamine D2 receptor. We confirmed that the third intracellular loop of the D2 receptor is a direct contact point for CaM binding using coimmunoprecipitation and a polyHis pull-down assay, and we determined that the D2-like receptor agonist 7-OH-DPAT increased the colocalization of the D2 receptor and endogenous CaM in both 293 cells and in primary neostriatal cultures. The N-terminal three or four residues of D2-IC3 were required for the binding of CaM; mutation of three of these residues in the full-length receptor (I210C/K211C/I212C) decreased the coprecipitation of the D2 receptor and CaM and also significantly decreased D2 receptor signaling, without altering the coupling of the receptor to G proteins. Taken together, these findings suggest that binding of CaM to the dopamine D2 receptor enhances D2 receptor signaling. 相似文献

Phosphorylation of the MAPK isoform ERK by G protein-coupled receptors involves multiple signaling pathways. One of these pathways entails growth factor receptor transactivation followed by ERK activation. This study demonstrates that a similar signaling pathway is used by the mu-opioid receptor (MOR) expressed in HEK293 cells and involves calmodulin (CaM). Stimulation of MOR resulted in both epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and ERK phosphorylation. Data obtained with inhibitors of EGFR Tyr kinase and membrane metalloproteases support an intermediate role of EGFR activation, involving release of endogenous membrane-bound epidermal growth factor. Previous studies had demonstrated a role for CaM in opioid signaling based on direct CaM binding to MOR. To test whether CaM contributes to EGFR transactivation and ERK phosphorylation by MOR, we compared wild-type MOR with mutant K273A MOR, which binds CaM poorly, but couples normally to G proteins. Stimulation of K273A MOR with [D-Ala(2),MePhe(4),Gly-ol(5)]enkephalin (10-100 nm) resulted in significantly reduced ERK phosphorylation. Furthermore, wild-type MOR stimulated EGFR Tyr phosphorylation 3-fold more than K273A MOR, indicating that direct CaM-MOR interaction plays a key role in the transactivation process. Inhibitors of CaM and protein kinase C also attenuated [D-Ala(2),MePhe(4),Gly-ol(5)]enkephalin-induced EGFR transactivation in wild-type (but not mutant) MOR-expressing cells. This novel pathway of EGFR transactivation may be shared by other G protein-coupled receptors shown to interact with CaM. 相似文献

Moderate increases of intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i), induced by either the activation of tropomyosin receptor kinase (Trk) receptors for neurotrophins or by neuronal activity, regulate different intracellular pathways and neuronal survival. In the present report we demonstrate that glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) treatment also induces [Ca2+]i elevation by mobilizing this cation from internal stores. The effects of [Ca2+]i increase after membrane depolarization are mainly mediated by calmodulin (CaM). However, the way in which CaM exerts its effects after tyrosine kinase receptor activation remains poorly characterized. It has been reported that phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) and its downstream target protein kinase B (PKB) play a central role in cell survival induced by neurotrophic factors; in fact, GDNF promotes neuronal survival through the activation of the PI 3-kinase/PKB pathway. We show that CaM antagonists inhibit PI 3-kinase and PKB activation as well as motoneuron survival induced by GDNF. We also demonstrate that endogenous Ca2+/CaM associates with the 85-kDa regulatory subunit of PI 3-kinase (p85). We conclude that changes of [Ca2+]i, induced by GDNF, promote neuronal survival through a mechanism that involves a direct regulation of PI 3-kinase activation by CaM thus suggesting a central role for Ca2+ and CaM in the signaling cascade for neuronal survival mediated by neurotrophic factors. 相似文献

S1P (sphingosine 1-phosphate) and SPC (sphingosylphosphorylcholine) have been recently recognized as important mediators of cell signalling, regulating basic cellular processes such as growth,differentiation, apoptosis, motility and Ca2+ homoeostasis.Interestingly, they can also act as first and second messengers. Although their activation of cell-surface G-protein-coupled receptors has been studied extensively, not much is known about heir intracellular mechanism of action, and their target proteins are yet to be identified. We hypothesized that these sphingolipids might bind to CaM (calmodulin), the ubiquitous intracellular Ca2+sensor. Binding assays utilizing intrinsic tyrosine fluorescence of the protein, dansyl-labelled CaM and surface plasmon resonance revealed that SPC binds to both apo- and Ca2+-saturated CaM selectively, when compared with the related lysophospholipid mediators S1P, LPA (lysophosphatidic acid) and LPC (lysophosphatidylcholine). Experiments carried out with the model CaM-binding domain melittin showed that SPC dissociates the CaM-target peptide complex, suggesting an inhibitory role. The functional effect of the interaction was examined on two target enzymes, phosphodiesterase and calcineurin, and SPC inhibited the Ca2+/CaM-dependent activity of both. Thus we propose that CaM might be an intracellular receptor for SPC, and raise the possibility of a novel endogenous regulation of CaM. 相似文献

We have used fluorescence spectroscopy to investigate the structure of calmodulin (CaM) bound with CaM-binding sequences of either the plasma membrane Ca-ATPase or the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor (RyR1) calcium release channel. Following derivatization with N-(1-pyrene)maleimide at engineered sites (T34C and T110C) within the N- and C-domains of CaM, contact interactions between these opposing domains of CaM resulted in excimer fluorescence that permits us to monitor conformational states of bound CaM. Complementary measurements take advantage of the unique conserved Trp within CaM-binding sequences that functions as a hydrophobic anchor in CaM binding and permits measurements of both a local and global peptide structure. We find that CaM binds with high affinity in a collapsed structure to the CaM-binding sequences of both the Ca-ATPase and RyR1, resulting in excimer formation that is indicative of contact interactions between the N- and the C-domains of CaM in complex with these CaM-binding peptides. There is a 4-fold larger amount of excimer formation for CaM bound to the CaM-binding sequence of the Ca-ATPase in comparison to RyR1, indicating a closer structural coupling between CaM domains in this complex. Prior to CaM association, the CaM-binding sequences of the Ca-ATPase and RyR1 are conformationally disordered. Upon CaM association, the CaM-binding sequence of the Ca-ATPase assumes a highly ordered structure. In comparison, the CaM-binding sequence of RyR1 remains conformationally disordered irrespective of CaM binding. These results suggest an important role for interdomain contact interactions between the opposing domains of CaM in stabilizing the structure of the peptide complex. The substantially different structural responses associated with CaM binding to Ca-ATPase and RyR1 indicates a plasticity in their respective binding mechanisms that accomplishes different physical mechanisms of allosteric regulation, involving either the dissociation of a C-terminal regulatory domain necessary for pump activation or the modulation of intersubunit interactions to diminish RyR1 channel activity. 相似文献
