心肌肌浆网膜钙泵调节蛋白——受磷蛋白的结构与功能

受磷蛋白(phospholamban,PHL)是心肌肌浆网膜钙泵的调节蛋白。它是由五个相同亚基组成的分子量为25000Da的寡聚体膜蛋白。它对心肌钙泵的调节是通过磷酸化和脱磷酸化作用来实现的。磷酸化作用使它在SDS-PAGE上表观分子量的变化显示出其亚分子结构的复杂性。本文着重介绍了在心肌兴奋-收缩偶联过程中,受磷蛋白的调节作用以及它的结构特征。     

脂肪族类两亲物对肌浆网膜蛋白结构的影响

本文观察和比较了六种C_(18)脂肪族类两亲物(fatty amphiphile,FA),包括硬脂酸(stearic acid)、硬脂胺(stearyl amine)、硬脂醇(stearyl alcohol)、油酸(oleic acid)、油胺(oleylamine)和油醇(oleyl alcohol),对肌浆网(sarcoplasmic reticulum,SR)钙泵蛋白结构的影响。当FA∶SR(μmol∶mg)的比例为2.67∶1—21.33∶1时,除油醇(oleyl alcohol)外,其余五种FA引起天然兔骨骼肌肌浆网蛋白内源荧光强度降低。随FA∶SR比例升高,降低幅度加大。五种FA的最大降低幅度在10—32％之间。其中带电荷FA比不带电荷FA的作用强,但均未见峰位位移。当FA∶SR的比例为2.67∶1时,除硬脂醇(stearyl alcohol)外,其余五种FA使N-(3-芘)-马来酰胺(N-(3-pyrene)maleimide,N-(3-p)-M)修饰的SR蛋白巯基荧光强度分别上升9％,40％,150％,193％和5％,但也未见峰位位移。ATP可减弱胺类FA引起的SR蛋白内源荧光降低和巯基荧光升高的幅度。油酸、油胺和硬脂胺既抑制SRCa~(2+),Mg~(2+)-ATPase活力和SR钙蓄积,又使SR钙泵蛋白的巯基修饰荧光显著上升。提示C_(18)脂肪族类两亲物使SR功能受损与其引起钙泵蛋白构象的显著变化有关。     

脂肪族类两亲物对肌浆网膜脂区结构的影响

C18饱和脂肪酸和胺可增加DPH标记肌浆网(SR)的荧光偏振度,而C18单不饱和脂肪酸。胺和醇则使其偏振度下降。加入MgATP,可除去单不饱和脂肪胺引起的DPH标记的荧光偏振度下降,并使之高于未加脂肪胺的对照水平。饱和酸及相应胺可使标记于膜脂中层和深层的TAS和12AS的荧光偏振度上升,不饱和酸及相应胺和醇仅使12AS荧光偏振下降。说明脂肪族类两亲物对SR膜流动性的影响与脂肪链饱和程度有关。饱和者主要使膜中、深层流动性下降.不饱和者主要使膜深层流动性升高。

Clomipramine and Related Structures as Inhibitors of the Skeletal Sarcoplasmic Reticulum Ca2+ Pump

The Ca²⁺-pumping activity of skeletal sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles is half-maximallyinhibited by 120 M clomipramine, 250 M desipramine, and 500 M imipramine or trimipramine.The inhibition is attributed to the dihydrodibenzazepine moiety, since3-(dimethylamino)propionitrile, reproducing the aliphatic amine chain, has no inhibitory action. The inhibitionis shown as a marked decrease of Ca²⁺ binding at equilibrium in theabsence of ATP and asa reduction of phosphorylation of the Ca²⁺-free conformation byinorganic phosphate. Therefore,the drug effect is consistent with preferential interaction of tricyclic antidepressants withthe Ca²⁺-free conformation of the nonphosphorylated enzyme. An additional decrease in theapparent rate constant of enzyme dephosphorylation, i.e., in the release of phosphate fromATP during enzyme cycling was also noticed.     

Kinetic Differences in the Phospholamban-Regulated Calcium Pump When Studied in Crude and Purified Cardiac Sarcoplasmic Reticulum Vesicles

Phospholamban (PLN) phosphorylation contributes largely to the inotropic and lusitropic effects of beta-adrenergic agonists on the heart. The mechanical effects of PLN phosphorylation on the heart are generally attributed solely to an increase in the apparent affinity of the Ca pump in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) membranes for Ca²⁺ with little or no effect on V _max(Ca). In the present report, we compare the kinetic properties of the cardiac SR Ca pump in commonly studied crude microsomes with those of our recently developed preparation of light SR vesicles. We demonstrate that in crude microsomes, the increase in the apparent affinity of the pump for Ca²⁺ is larger, while the increase in V _max(Ca) is smaller, than in purified vesicles. The greater phosphorylation-induced increase in apparent Ca²⁺ affinity in crude microsomes may be further enhanced by an ATP-sensitive inhibitory effect of ruthenium red on the activity of the pump at subsaturating, but not saturating, Ca²⁺ concentrations as a result of a greater inhibition in unphosphorylated microsomes. Upon increasing the ATP concentration from 1 to 5 mm, an inhibition by 10 μm ruthenium red is eliminated in phosphorylated microsomes and reduced in control microsomes. Addition of the phosphoprotein phosphatase inhibitor okadaic acid produces a considerable increase in the phosphorylation-induced effects in both crude and purified microsomes. We conclude that the use of purified cardiac SR vesicles is critical for the demonstration of a major increase in V _max(Ca) in addition to an increase in the pump's apparent affinity for Ca²⁺ in response to phosphorylation of PLN by protein kinase A.

Modulation of Cardiac Sarcoplasmic Reticulum Calcium Release by Aenosine: A protein Kinase C- Dependent Pathway

We have already reported that A₃ adenosine receptor stimulation reduces [³H]-ryanodine binding and sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca²⁺ release in rat heart. In the present work we have investigated the transduction pathway responsible for this effect. Isolated rat hearts were perfused for 20 min in the presence of the following substances: 100 nM N⁶-(iodobenzyl)-adenosine-5′-N-methyluronamide (IB-MECA), an A₃ adenosine agonist; 10 μM U-73122, a phospholipase C inhibitor; 2 μM chelerythrine, a protein kinase C inhibitor. At the end of perfusion, the hearts were homogenized and [³H]-ryanodine binding was assayed. IB-MECA produced a significant decrease in ryanodine binding, which was abolished in the presence of chelerythrine but not in the presence of U-73122. RT-PCR experiments showed that ryanodine receptor gene expression was not affected by IB-MECA. In Western blot experiments, ryanodine receptor phosphorylation on serine 2809 was not modified after perfusion with IB-MECA. We conclude that modulation of SR Ca²⁺ release channel by IB-MECA is dependent on protein kinase C activation. However, in this model protein kinase C activation is not due to phospholipase C activation. In addition, changes in ryanodine receptor gene expression or direct phosphorylation of the ryanodine receptor on serine 2809 residue do not appear to occur.

GM3掺入肌质网膜及其对Ca2+-ATP酶的正向调节

用微量提取和高效薄板层析方法研究了外源性神经节苷脂GM3掺入兔肌质网膜的动力学过程.将掺入量分别相对于掺入浓度、时间和温度作图,显示掺入曲线均呈抛物线形式.当掺入体系中GM3浓度为8 μmol／L、掺入时间为90 min、掺入温度为35℃时,其掺入量达到最大值,约为掺入体系中GM3量的50%.上述结果表明外源性GM3对肌质网膜的作用不仅仅是一种简单的水相反应,而是一个依赖于掺入浓度、时间和温度,并具有一定的饱和度的掺入到肌质网膜脂双层中的动力学过程.进一步的实验表明外源性GM3的掺入能明显增加肌质网Ca^2＋-ATP酶的活力.这为从分子水平上研究糖脂对细胞内膜系统的结构与功能的调节作用提供了重要的基础.     

Membrane Asymmetry in Isolated Canine Cardiac Sarcoplasmic Reticulum: Comparison with Skeletal Muscle Sarcoplasmic Reticulum

Cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum (CSR), isolated from dog hearts, was shown to be asymmetric in the distribution of phospholipids across the CSR bilayer. Phosphatidylethanolamine was mostly resident in the outer leaflet, phosphatidylcholine was equally distributed across both monolayers and phosphatidylserine was found primarily in the inner monolayer. This distribution of headgroups is similar to that found in fast skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum (SSR); however, the asymmetry in CSR is not as striking as that in SSR. Phospholipids retained by the CSR calcium pump protein (CaATPase) after detergent ``stripping' were similar to those intimate to the SSR CaATPase, although the percentages of unsaturated phospholipids and plasmalogenic phospholipids are not as great as in the skeletal system. Lipids associated with the CSR CaATPase following DFDNB cross-linking showed a preference for retention of the aminophospholipids, again similar to the SSR CaATPase. Because the nonrandom distribution of membrane lipids modifies SSR function, it is likely these membrane lipids impact in situ the function of the CSR.

Transport of Ca2+ from Sarcoplasmic Reticulum to Mitochondria in Rat Ventricular Myocytes

Studies with electron microscopy have shown that sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) andmitochondria locate close to each other in cardiac muscle cells. We investigated the hypothesis thatthis proximity results in a transient exposure of mitochondrial Ca²⁺ uniporter (CaUP) to highconcentrations of Ca²⁺ following Ca²⁺ release from the SR and thus an influx of Ca²⁺into mitochondria. Single ventricular myocytes of rat were skinned by exposing them to aphysiological solution containing saponin (0.2 mg/ml). Cytosolic Ca²⁺ concentration ([Ca²⁺]_c)and mitochondrial Ca²⁺ concentration ([Ca²⁺]_m) were measured with fura-2 and rhod2,respectively. Application of caffeine (10 mM) induced a concomitant increase in[Ca²⁺]_c and [Ca²⁺]_m.Ruthenium red, at concentrations that block CaUP but not SR release, diminished thecaffeine-induced increase in [Ca²⁺]_m but not[Ca²⁺]_c. In the presence of 1 mM BAPTA, a Ca²⁺ chelator,the caffeine-induced increase in [Ca²⁺]_m was reduced substantially less than [Ca²⁺]_c. Moreover,inhibition of SR Ca²⁺ pump with two different concentrations of thapsigargin caused anincrease in [Ca²⁺]_m, which was related to the rate of [Ca²⁺]_c increase. Finally, electronmicroscopy showed that sites of junctions between SR and T tubules from which Ca²⁺ is released,or Ca²⁺ release units, CRUs, are preferentially located in close proximity to mitochondria.The distance between individual SR Ca²⁺ release channels (feet or ryanodine receptors) isvery short, ranging between approximately 37 and 270 nm. These results are consistent withthe idea that there is a preferential coupling of Ca²⁺ transport from SR to mitochondria incardiac muscle cells, because of their structural proximity.     

Uncoupling of Occlusion From ATP Hydrolysis Activity in Sarcoplasmic Reticulum (Ca2++Mg2+)-ATPase

The uncoupling of Ca²⁺ transport from ATP hydrolysis in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (Ca²⁺ + Mg²⁺)-ATPase by trypsin digestion was re-investigated by comparing ATPase activity with the ability of the enzyme to occlude Eu³⁺ (a transport parameter) after various tryptic digests. With this method, re-examination of uncoupling by tryptic digest of the ATPase revealed that TD2 cleavage (Arg-198) had no effect on either occlusion or ATPase activity. Digestion past TD2 in the presence of 5 mM Co²⁺ and at 25°C resulted in the loss of about 70% of the ATPase activity, but no loss of occlusion. Digestion past TD2 in the presence of 5 mM Ca²⁺, 3 mM ATP, and at 25°C resulted in a partially uncoupled enzyme complex which retained about 50% of the ATPase activity, but completely lost the ability to occlude Eu³⁺. Digest past TD2 in the presence of 5 mM Ca²⁺ and 3 mM AMP-PNP. (a non-hydrolyzable ATP analog) at 25°C resulted in no loss of occlusion, thus revealing the absolute requirement of ATP during the digest to eliminate occlusion. From these findings we conclude that uncoupling of Ca²⁺ transport from ATPase activity is possible by tryptic digestion of the (Ca²⁺ + Mg²⁺)-ATPase. Interestingly, only after phosphorylation of the enzyme do the susceptible bond(s) which lead to the loss of occlusion become exposed to trypsin.
