Increased membrane permeability (conductance) that is specific for K+ and directly activated by Ca2+ ions, has been identified in isolated adipocyte plasma membranes using the K+ analogue, 86Rb+. Activation of these K+ conductance pathways (channels) by free Ca2+ was concentration dependent with a half-maximal effect occurring at 32 +/- 4 nM free Ca2+ (n = 7). Addition of calmodulin further enhanced the Ca2+ activating effect on 86Rb+ uptake (K+ channel activity). Ca2+-dependent 86Rb+ uptake was inhibited by tetraethylammonium ion and low pH. It is concluded that the adipocyte plasma membrane possesses K+ channels that are activated by Ca2+ and amplified by calmodulin. 相似文献

Bovine brain calmodulin was labeled with synthetic peptides corresponding to the calmodulin-binding domain of the erythrocyte plasma membrane Ca(2+)-ATPase. One 20-amino acid peptide and two 28-amino acid peptides were used, carrying L-4'-(1-azi-2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)phenylalanine residues in position 9 (peptides C20W* and C28W*) and position 25 (peptide C28WC*), respectively. The localization of the contact regions between calmodulin and the N- and C-terminal portions of the peptides was the aim of this study. The three peptides were N-terminally blocked with a 3H-labeled acetyl group to facilitate the identification of labeled fragments after isolation and digestion. The binding site for phenylalanine 25 was identified in the N-terminal domain of calmodulin while the phenylalanine derivative in position 9 labeled the C-terminal domain. Fluorescence studies using the dansylated N- and C-terminal halves of calmodulin and peptide C20W corresponding to the first 20 amino acids of the calmodulin-binding domain showed that only the C-terminal lobe of calmodulin had high affinity for the peptide (KD in the nanomolar range). 相似文献

The Neurospora plasma membrane Ca2+ pump 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Plasma membrane vesicles isolated from the eukaryotic microorganism Neurospora crassa by the concanavalin A method catalyze Mg2+-ATP dependent 45Ca2+ accumulation. Since the ATP-responsive vesicles are functionally inverted, the Ca2+ transport system presumably operates as a Ca2+ exit pump in the intact cell. The mechanism of the Ca2+ pump system involves two components: 1) an electrogenic, proton-translocating ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3), which utilizes the chemical energy of ATP hydrolysis to generate a transmembrane electrical potential and pH gradient, and 2) a Ca2+/H+ antiporter, which utilizes the transmembrane pH gradient to energize the active transport of Ca2+. Evidence for this mechanism is presented and the possible implications of these findings for the mechanisms of Ca2+ pumps in other cells are discussed. 相似文献

Synthetic peptides corresponding to the calmodulin-binding domain of the human erythrocyte Ca2+ pump were prepared representing residues 2-29 (C28W), 2-21 (C20W), 2-16 (C15W), and 16-29 (C14) of the sequence (James, P., Maeda, M., Fisher, R., Verma, A. K., Krebs, J., Penniston, J. T., and Carafoli, E. (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 2905-2910). Peptides C28W, C20W, and C15W bound to calmodulin with an apparent 1:1 stoichiometry in the presence of Ca2+ and inhibited the activation of the Ca2+ pump by calmodulin, while C14 was ineffective. Substituting tyrosine (C28Y) or alanine (C28A) for the tryptophan residue lowered the affinity for calmodulin. The estimated Kd values for the calmodulin-peptide complexes were 0.1 nM for C28W, 5-15 nM for C20W, C28Y, and C28A, and 700-1700 nM for C15W. The Ca2+ pump in inside-out erythrocyte membrane vesicles was activated by proteolytic removal of the endogenous calmodulin-binding domain. Addition of C20W or C28W then inhibited calmodulin-independent Ca2+ transport, while a calmodulin-binding peptide from another enzyme had no effect. The inhibition of the pump by C20W was purely competitive with Ca2+, while C28W decreased the Vmax and increased the K1/2 for Ca2+, restoring the pump activity nearly to its low basal level. The results suggest that a calmodulin-binding peptide from any enzyme has two kinds of specificity: it shares with peptides from other enzymes the ability to bind to calmodulin, but only it has the specificity to interact with its own (proteolytically activated) enzyme. 相似文献

The C-terminal regions of the four human plasma membrane Ca2+ pump isoforms 1a-d generated from alternatively spliced RNA have been expressed in Escherichia coli, and the recombinant proteins have been purified to a very high degree. The C-termini of isoforms 1a, 1c, and 1d contain an insert encoded by an alternatively spliced exon which is homologous to the calmodulin binding domain of isoform 1b. In isoforms 1c and 1d (29 and 38 amino acid insertions, respectively), subdomain A of the original calmodulin binding site of isoform 1b is followed by the spliced-in domain, which is then followed by subdomain B of the original calmodulin binding site. The positive charges of histidine residues at positions 27, 28, and 38 of the alternatively spliced sequence are likely to be responsible for the observed pH-dependent calmodulin binding to the novel "duplicated" binding site. The affinity of calmodulin for the C-terminal domains of isoforms 1a, 1c, and 1d, which contain the histidine-rich inserts, is much higher at pH 5.9 than at pH 7.2. A synthetic peptide (I31) containing 31 amino acids of the alternatively spliced sequence (from residue 9 to 40) also binds calmodulin with strong pH dependency. Alternative splicing in the C-terminal domain is proposed to confer pH dependence to the regulation of the activity of Ca2+ pump isoforms. 相似文献

A Ca2+- and calmodulin (CaM)-dependent protein kinase of Saccharomyces cerevisiae was partially purified by CaM affinity chromatography of the soluble fraction, and the properties of the enzyme were investigated. The protein kinase activity of the affinity-purified preparation was stimulated at least eightfold by the simultaneous presence of Ca2+ and CaM. The enzyme stimulation was strongly inhibited by trifluoperazine (TFP), a CaM antagonist. When the kinase was incubated in the presence of ATP, Ca2+, and CaM before the assay, the enzyme showed activity even in the presence of the Ca2+ chelator ethylene glycol-bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid (EGTA) and TFP. The conversion to this Ca2+- and CaM-independent form occurred very rapidly under the incubation conditions required for protein phosphorylation by the kinase. At the highest level of conversion, Ca2+- and CaM-independent kinase activity, which was measured in the presence of EGTA and TFP, was nearly equal to the total kinase activity, which was measured in the presence of Ca2+ and CaM. A protein with a molecular weight of 58,000 was the major species that was phosphorylated in a Ca2+- and CaM-dependent manner by incubation of the CaM affinity-purified proteins with [gamma-32P]ATP. The protein kinase activity of the protein with the same molecular weight was demonstrated by in situ protein phosphorylation in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels by using casein as the substrate, after removal of the detergent from electrophoresed CaM-binding proteins. These data indicate that phosphorylation of the kinase is responsible for the conversion of enzyme activity. Enzyme regulation by this mode may play an important role in integrating cellular functions during the cell cycle. A possible role for the Ca2+-and CaM-dependent protein kinase in the signal transduction of the mating pheromone alpha factor is also discussed. 相似文献

Calcium accumulation by human erythrocyte inside-out vesicles was linear for at least 30 min in the presence of ATP. In untreated inside-out vesicles, 3.76 +/- 1.44 nmol of calcium/min/unit of acetylcholinesterase were transported, compared with 10.57 +/- 2.05 (+/- S.D.; n = 11) in those treated with calmodulin. The amount of calmodulin necessary for 50% activation of Ca2+ accumulation was 60 +/- 22 ng/ml (+/- S.D.; n = 4). The Km (Ca2+) for calmodulin-stimulated accumulation was 0.8 +/- 0.05 microM (+/- S.D.; n = 5) using Ca2+ /ethylene glycol bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid (EGTA) buffers, or 25 microM with direct addition of unbuffered calcium. In the absence of calmodulin, these values were 0.4 and 60 microM, respectively, Km (ATP) values of 90 and 60 microM in the presence and absence of calmodulin, respectively, were measured at constant magnesium concentration (3 mM). In the presence of calmodulin, a broad pH profile is exhibited from pH 6.6 to 8.2. Maximal calcium accumulation occurs at pH 7.8. In the absence of calmodulin, the pH profile exhibits a linear upward increase from pH 7.0 to 8.2. The (Ca2+-Mg2+)-ATPase activity, measured under identical conditions, was 2.40 +/- 0.72 nmol of Pi/min/unit of acetylcholinesterase in the untreated vesicles and 11.29 +/- 2.87 nmol of Pi/min/unit of acetylcholinesterase (+/- S.D.; n = 4) in calmodulin-treated vesicles. A stoichiometry of 1.6 Ca2+/ATP hydrolyzed was determined in the absence of calmodulin; in the presence of calmodulin, this ratio was decreased to 0.94 Ca2+/ATP hydrolyzed. 相似文献

The Ca2+ pump of the plasma membrane of human red blood cells is associated with the activity of a (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase. Both the ATPase and the pump are stimulated above basal activities by calmodulin, an ubiquitous Ca2+-binding protein. Calmodulin isolated from human red blood cells was shown to be equipotent and equieffective with that isolated from beef brain. Half-maximal activation of ATPase (isolated red blood cell membranes, 37 C) and transport (inside-out red blood cell membrane vesicles, 25 C) were obtained with 2.5 and 4.4 nM calmodulin, respectively. Ca2+ dependence of Ca2+ transport was measured in the absence and in the presence of 50 nM calmodulin. At all Ca2+ concentrations above 2 X 10(-7) M Ca2+, the rate of transport was greater in the presence of calmodulin. The results implicate calmodulin in the regulation of the plasma membrane Ca2+ pump, but the mechanism(s) remain to be elucidated. 相似文献

The interaction between calmodulin and synthetic peptides corresponding to the calmodulin binding domain of the plasma membrane Ca2+ pump has been studied by measuring Ca2+ binding to calmodulin. The largest peptide (C28W) corresponding to the complete 28 amino acid calmodulin binding domain enhanced the Ca2+ affinity of calmodulin by more than 100 times, implying that the binding of Ca2+ increased the affinity of calmodulin for the peptide by more than 10(8) times. Deletion of the 8 C-terminal residues from peptide C28W did not decrease the affinity of Ca2+ for the high-affinity sites of calmodulin, but it decreased that for the low-affinity sites. A larger deletion (13 residues) decreased the affinity of Ca2+ for the high-affinity sites as well. The data suggest that the middle portion of peptide C28W interacts with the C-terminal half of calmodulin. Addition of the peptides to a mixture of tryptic fragments corresponding to the N- and C-terminal halves of calmodulin produced a biphasic Ca2+ binding curve, and the effect of peptides was different from that on calmodulin. The result shows that one molecule of peptide C28W binds both calmodulin fragments. Interaction of the two domains of calmodulin through the central helix is necessary for the high-affinity binding of four Ca2+ molecules. 相似文献

A plasma membrane-enriched fraction from rat myometrium shows ATP-Mg2+-dependent active calcium uptake which is independent of the presence of oxalate and is abolished by the Ca2+ ionophore A23187. Ca2+ loaded into vesicles via the ATP-dependent Ca2+ uptake was released by extravesicular Na+. This showed that the Na+/Ca2+ exchange and the Ca2+ uptake were both occurring in plasma membrane vesicles. In a medium containing KCl, vanadate readily inhibited the Ca2+ uptake (K1/2 5 microM); when sucrose replaced KCl, 400 microM-vanadate was required for half inhibition. Only a slight stimulation of the calcium pump by calmodulin was observed in untreated membrane vesicles. Extraction of endogenous calmodulin from the membranes by EGTA decreased the activity and Ca2+ affinity of the calcium pump; both activity and affinity were fully restored by adding back calmodulin or by limited proteolysis. A monoclonal antibody (JA3) directed against the human erythrocyte Ca2+ pump reacted with the 140 kDa Ca2+-pump protein of the myometrial plasma membrane. The Ca2+-ATPase activity of these membranes is not specific for ATP, and is not inhibited by mercurial agents, whereas Ca2+ uptake has the opposite properties. Ca2+-ATPase activity is also over 100 times that of calcium transport; it appears that the ATPase responsible for transport is largely masked by the presence of another Ca2+-ATPase of unknown function. Measurements of total Ca2+-ATPase activity are, therefore, probably not directly relevant to the question of intracellular Ca2+ control. 相似文献

The liver plasma membrane Ca2+ pump: hormonal sensitivity 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The liver plasma membrane Ca2+ pump is supposed to extrude cytosolic calcium out of the cell. This system has now been well defined on the basis of its plasma membrane origin, its high affinity Ca2+ -stimulated ATPase activity, its Ca2+ transport activity, its phosphorylated intermediate. The liver calcium pump appears to be a target of hormonal action since it has been shown that glucagon and calcium mobilizing hormones namely alpha 1-adrenergic agonists, vasopressin, angiotensin II inhibit this system. The present review details the mechanism of calcium pump inhibition by glucagon and points out its difference from the inhibition process induced by calcium mobilizing hormones. We conclude that the inhibitory action of the Ca2+ mobilizing hormones and glucagon on the liver plasma membrane Ca2+ pump might play a key role in the actions of these hormones by prolonging the elevation in cytosolic free Ca2+. 相似文献

Plasma membrane (PM) Ca2+ pump is aCa2+-Mg2+-ATPase that expels Ca2+from cells to help them maintain low concentrations of cytosolic Ca2+. There are no known extracellularly acting PMCa2+ pump inhibitors, as digoxin and ouabain are forNa+ pump. In analogy with digoxin, we define caloxins asextracellular PM Ca2+ pump inhibitors and describe caloxin2A1. Caloxin 2A1 is a peptide obtained by screening a random peptidephage display library for binding to the second extracellular domain(residues 401-413) sequence of PM Ca2+ pump isoform1b. Caloxin 2A1 inhibits Ca2+-Mg2+-ATPase inhuman erythrocyte leaky ghosts, but it does not affect basalMg2+-ATPase or Na+-K+-ATPase in theghosts or Ca2+-Mg2+-ATPase in the skeletalmuscle sarcoplasmic reticulum. Caloxin 2A1 also inhibitsCa2+-dependent formation of the 140-kDa acid-stableacylphosphate, which is a partial reaction of this enzyme. Consistentwith inhibition of the PM Ca2+ pump in vascularendothelium, caloxin 2A1 produces an endothelium-dependent relaxationthat is reversed byNG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester.Thus caloxin 2A1 is a novel PM Ca2+ pump inhibitor selectedfor binding to an extracellular domain. 相似文献

In this work we report an unusual pattern of activation by calmodulin on the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase from basolateral membranes of kidney proximal tubule cells. The activity of the ATPase depleted of calmodulin is characterized by a high Ca2+ affinity (Km = 2.2-3.4 microM) and a biphasic dependence on ATP concentration. The preparation responded to the addition of calmodulin by giving rise to a new Ca2+ site of very high affinity (Km less than 0.05 microM). Calmodulin antagonists had diverse effects on ATPase activity. Compound 48/80 inhibited calmodulin-stimulated activity by 70%, whereas calmidazolium did not modify this component. In the absence of calmodulin, 48/80 still acted as an antagonist, increasing the Km for Ca2+ to 5.7 microM and reducing enzyme turnover by competing with ATP at the low affinity regulatory site. Calmidazolium did not affect Ca2+ affinity, but it did displace ATP from the regulatory site. At fixed Ca2+ (30 microM) and ATP (5 mM) concentrations, Pi protected against 48/80 and potentiated inhibition by calmidazolium. At 25 microM ATP, Pi protected against calmidazolium inhibition. We propose that the effects of ATP and Pi arise because binding of the drugs to the ATPase occurs mainly on the E2 forms. 相似文献

Peptide G25 (KKAVKVPKKEKSVLQGKLTRLAVQI) representing the putative lipid-binding region (G region) of the erythrocyte Ca2+ pump was synthesized. This peptide interacted with acidic lipids, as shown by the increase in size of phosphatidylserine liposomes in its presence. This lipid interaction is consistent with the previous evidence suggesting that the portion of the pump from which this peptide was taken is responsible for the activation of the pump by acidic lipid. G25 also bound to calmodulin, as was shown by its cause of a shift in the fluorescence of 5-dimethylamino naphthalene-1-sulfonyl- (dansyl)-calmodulin, and by its competition with Ca2+ pump for calmodulin. Its Kd for dansyl-calmodulin was much higher (0.8 microM) than that of the peptides representing the primary calmodulin-binding region (C region) of the Ca2+ pump. Although the presence of the G region provided the possibility of a second calmodulin-binding site, activation of the pump by calmodulin always could be fitted by simple saturation kinetics. The calmodulin-binding peptide from the C region of the pump, C28R2, also interacted with lipid with even greater effectiveness than G25. When the C region of the pump was saturated with calmodulin, acidic lipid activation of the pump followed simple saturation kinetics. However, when calmodulin was omitted, a higher concentration of lipid was needed for saturation and the kinetics became complex. The data are consistent with the idea that calmodulin activates the pump only by interaction at the C region, but that acidic lipid activates by interaction at both of the C and G regions. 相似文献

Time-dependent modulation of capacitative Ca2+ entry signals by plasma membrane Ca2+ pump in endothelium 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

In vascular endothelial cells, depletion of intracellularCa2+ stores elicited capacitativeCa2+ entry (CCE) that resulted inbiphasic changes of intracellular Ca2+ concentration([Ca2+]i)with a rapid initial peak of[Ca2+]ifollowed by a gradual decrease to a sustained plateau level. Weinvestigated the rates of Ca2+entry, removal, and sequestration during activation of CCE and theirrespective contributions to the biphasic changes of[Ca2+]i.Ca2+ buffering by mitochondria,removal byNa+/Ca2+exchange, and a fixed electrical driving force forCa2+ (voltage-clamp experiments)had little effect on the CCE signal. The rates of entry ofMn2+ andBa2+, used as unidirectionalsubstitutes for Ca2+ entry throughthe CCE pathway, were constant and did not follow the concomitantchanges of[Ca2+]i.Pharmacological inhibition of the plasma membraneCa2+ pump, however, abolished thesecondary decay phase of the CCE transient. The disparity between thebiphasic changes of[Ca2+]iand the constant rate of Ca2+entry during CCE was the result of a delayed,Ca2+-dependent activation of thepump. These results suggest an important modulatory role of the plasmamembrane Ca2+ pump in the netcellular gain of Ca2+ during CCE. 相似文献

cDNAs coding for a plasma membrane Ca2+ pump were isolated from a human teratoma library and sequenced. The translated sequence contained 1,220 amino acids with a calculated molecular weight of 134,683. All regions of functional importance known from other ion-transporting ATPases could be identified. The translated sequence also contained, near the carboxyl terminus, the calmodulin-binding domain and two domains which are very rich in glutamic acid and aspartic acid. These two domains resemble calmodulin somewhat and one of them may play a role in the binding of Ca2+. The enzyme also contains domains rich in serine and threonine, one of which has a sequence matching those of good cAMP-dependent protein kinase substrates. The carboxyl-terminal region is important for regulation by calmodulin, proteolysis, and phosphorylation. Near the amino terminus are two domains which are very rich in lysine and glutamic acid, as well as two domains resembling EF hands, one of which also has some resemblance to calmodulin. Comparison of the cloned sequence with peptide sequences from the erythrocyte Ca2+ pump showed that the two proteins have a very high proportion of identical residues but are not 100% identical, indicating that they represent different isozymes. 相似文献

Calmodulin (CaM) and troponin C (TnC) are EF-hand proteins that play fundamentally different roles in animal physiology. TnC has a very low affinity for the plasma membrane Ca2+-ATPase and is a poor substitute for CaM in increasing the enzyme's affinity for Ca2+ and the rate of ATP hydrolysis. We use a series of recombinant TnC (rTnC)/CaM chimeras to clarify the importance of the CaM carboxyl-terminal domain in the activation of the plasma membrane Ca2+-ATPase. The rTnC/CaM chimera, in which the carboxyl-terminal domain of TnC is replaced by that of CaM, has the same ability as CaM to bind and transmit the signal to Ca2+ sites on the enzyme. There is no further functional gain when the amino-terminal domain is modified to make the rTnC/CaM chimera more CaM-like. To identify which regions of the carboxyl-terminal domain of CaM are responsible for these effects, we constructed the chimeras rTnC/3CaM and rTnC/4CaM, where only one-half of the C-terminal domain of CaM (residues 85-112 or residues 113-148) replaces the corresponding region in rTnC. Neither rTnC/3CaM nor rTnC/4CaM can mimic CaM in its affinity for the enzyme. Nevertheless, with respect to the signal transduction process, rTnC/4CaM, but not rTnC/3CaM, shows the same behaviour as CaM. We conclude that the whole C-terminal domain is required for binding to the enzyme while Ca2+-binding site 4 of CaM bears all the requirements to increase Ca2+ binding at PMCA sites. Such mechanism of binding and activation is distinct from that proposed for most other CaM targets. Furthermore, we suggest that Ala128 and Met124 from CaM site 4 may play a crucial role in discriminating CaM from TnC. 相似文献

Plasma membrane vesicles isolated from rat liver exhibited an azide-insensitive Mg2+-ATP-dependent Ca2+ pump which accumulated Ca2+ at a rate of 5.1 +/- 0.5 nmol of calcium/mg of protein/min and reached a total accumulation of 33.2 +/- 2.6 nmol of calcium/mg of protein in 20 microM Ca2+ at 37 degrees C. Equiosmotic addition of 50 mM Na+ resulted in a loss of accumulated calcium. Measurement of Mg2+-ATP-dependent Ca2+ uptake in the presence of 50 mM Na+ revealed no effect of Na+ on the initial rate of Ca2+ uptake, but a decrease in the total accumulation. The half-maximal effect of Na+ on Ca2+ accumulation was achieved at 14 mM. The Ca2+ efflux rate constant in the absence of Na+ was 0.16 +/- 0.01 min-1, whereas the efflux rate constant in the presence of 50 mM Na+ was 0.25 +/- 0.02 min-1. Liver homogenate sedimentation fractions from 1,500 to 105,000 X g were assayed for azide-insensitive Mg2+-ATP-dependent Ca2+ accumulation. Na+-sensitive Ca2+ uptake activity was found to specifically co-sediment with the plasma membrane-associated enzymes, 5'-nucleotidase and Na+/K+-ATPase, whereas Na+-insensitive Ca2+ uptake was found to co-sediment with the endoplasmic reticulum-associated enzyme, glucose-6-phosphatase. The plasma membrane Ca2+ pump was also distinguished from the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump by its sensitivity to inhibition by vanadate. Half-maximal inhibition of plasma membrane Ca2+ uptake occurred at 0.8 microM VO4(3-), whereas half-maximal inhibition of microsomal Ca2+ uptake occurred at 40 microM. 相似文献

The calmodulin-binding domain mediates the self-association of the plasma membrane Ca2+ pump. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Dimerization (oligomerization) of the plasma membrane Ca2+ pump increases its activity (Kosk-Kosicka, D., Bzdega, T., and Wawrzynow, A. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 19495-19499). Fluorescence titration on preparations of the purified eosin-labeled human erythrocyte ATPase has been used to monitor the oligomerization process. Calmodulin inhibits oligomerization, although it can bind to the oligomerized enzyme. Synthetic peptides corresponding to the calmodulin-binding domain of the pump stimulate its ATPase activity, indicating the formation of heterooligomers of the peptides with the pump. The oligomerization is prevented by the preincubation of the ATPase with calmodulin. Polyclonal antibodies against the synthetic calmodulin-binding domain inhibit its basal and its calmodulin-stimulated ATPase activity and prevent the formation of the oligomers. ATPase preparations truncated at the COOH terminus with calpain to a fragment of 124 kDa which does not contain the calmodulin-binding domain fail to oligomerize with the intact ATPase. The results show that the calmodulin-binding domain mediates the oligomerization of the Ca2+ pump. 相似文献
