The metabotropic glutamate receptor 7a (mGluR7a), a heptahelical Galpha(i/o)-coupled protein, has been shown to be important for presynaptic feedback inhibition at central synapses and certain forms of long term potentiation and long term depression. The intracellular C terminus of mGluR7a interacts with calmodulin in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner, and calmodulin antagonists have been found to abolish presynaptic inhibition of glutamate release in neurons and mGluR7a-induced activation of G-protein-activated inwardly rectifying K(+) channel (GIRK) channels in HEK293 cells. Here, we characterized the Ca(2+) dependence of mGluR7a signaling in Xenopus oocytes by using channelrhodopsin-2 (ChR2), a Ca(2+)-permeable, light-activated ion channel for triggering Ca(2+) influx, and a GIRK3.1/3.2 concatemer to monitor mGluR7a responses. Application of the agonist (S)-2-amino-4-phosphonobutanoic acid (l-AP4) (1-100 mum) caused a dose-dependent inward current in high K(+) solutions due to activation of GIRK channels by G-protein betagamma subunits released from mGluR7a. Elevation of intracellular free Ca(2+) by light stimulation of ChR2 markedly increased the amplitude of l-AP4 responses, and this effect was attenuated by the calcium chelator 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid tetrakis (acetoxymethyl ester). l-AP4 responses were potentiated by submembranous [Ca(2+)] levels within physiological ranges and with a threshold close to resting [Ca(2+)](i) values, as determined by recording the endogenous Xenopus Ca(2+)-activated chloride conductance. Together, these results show that l-AP4-dependent mGluR7a signaling is potentiated by physiological levels of [Ca(2+)](i), consistent with a model in which presynaptic mGluR7a acts as a coincidence detector of Ca(2+) influx and glutamate release. 相似文献

Group III metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) serve as presynaptic receptors that mediate feedback inhibition of glutamate release via a Ca(2+)/calmodulin (CaM)-dependent mechanism. In vitro phosphorylation of mGluR7A by protein kinase C (PKC) prevents its interaction with Ca(2+)/CaM. In addition, activation of PKC leads to an inhibition of mGluR signaling. Here, we demonstrate that disrupting CaM binding to mGluR7A by PKC in vitro is due to phosphorylation of a highly conserved serine residue, S862. We propose charge neutralization of the CaM binding consensus sequence resulting from phosphorylation to constitute a general mechanism for the regulation of presynaptic mGluR signaling. 相似文献

Macrophage spreading requires the microtubule cytoskeleton and protein kinase C (PKC). The mechanism of involvement of the microtubules and PKC in this event is not fully understood. Dynamitin is a subunit of dynactin, which is important for linking the microtubule-dependent motor protein dynein to vesicle membranes. We report that dynamitin is a Ca(2+)/calmodulin-binding protein and that dynamitin binds directly to macrophage-enriched myristoylated alanine-rice C kinase substrate (MacMARCKS), a membrane-associated PKC substrate involved in macrophage spreading and integrin activation. Dynamitin was found to copurify with MacMARCKS both during MacMARCKS purification with conventional chromatography and during the immunoabsorption of MacMARCKS using anti-MacMARCKS antibody. Vice versa, MacMARCKS was also found to cosediment with the 20 S dynactin complex. We determined that the effector domain of MacMARCKS is required to interact with the N-terminal domain of dynamitin. MacMARCKS and dynamitin also partially colocalized at peripheral regions of macrophages and in the cell-cell border of 293 epithelial cells. Treatment with phorbol esters abolished this colocalization. Disrupting the interaction with a short peptide derived from the MacMARCKS-binding domain of dynamitin caused macrophages to spread and flatten. These data suggest that the dynamitin-MacMARCKS interaction is involved in cell spreading. Furthermore, the regulation of this interaction by PKC and Ca(2+)/calmodulin provides a possible regulatory mechanism for cell adhesion and spreading. 相似文献

Metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 7 (mGluR7) is coupled to the inhibitory cyclic AMP cascade and is selectively activated by a glutamate analogue, L-2-amino-4-phosphonobutyrate. Among L-2-amino-4-phosphonobutyrate-sensitive mGluR subtypes, mGluR7 is highly concentrated at the presynaptic terminals and is thought to play an important role in modulation of glutamatergic synaptic transmission by presynaptic inhibition of glutamate release. To gain further insight into the intracellular signaling mechanisms of mGluR7, with the aid of glutathione S-transferase fusion affinity chromatography, we attempted to identify proteins that interact with the intracellular carboxyl terminus of mGluR7. Here, we report that calmodulin (CaM) directly binds to the carboxyl terminus of mGluR7 in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner. The CaM-binding domain is located immediately following the 7th transmembrane segment. We also show that the CaM-binding domain of mGluR7 is phosphorylated by protein kinase C (PKC). This phosphorylation is inhibited by the binding of Ca(2+)/CaM to the receptor. Conversely, the Ca(2+)/CaM binding is prevented by PKC phosphorylation. Collectively, these results suggest that mGluR7 serves to cross-link the cyclic AMP, Ca(2+), and PKC phosphorylation signal transduction cascades. 相似文献

We investigated the effects of 17beta-estradiol, an estrogen, on [(3)H]norepinephrine ([(3)H]NE) secretion in PC12 cells. Pretreatment with 17beta-estradiol reduced 70 mM K(+)-induced [(3)H]NE secretion in a concentration-dependent manner with a half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC(50)) of 2 +/- 1 microM. The 70 mM K(+)-induced cytosolic free Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) rise was also reduced when the cells were treated with 17beta-estradiol (IC(50) = 15 +/- 2 microM). Studies with voltage-sensitive calcium channel (VSCC) antagonists such as nifedipine and omega-conotoxin GVIA revealed that both L- and N-type VSCCs were affected by 17beta-estradiol treatment. The 17beta-estradiol effect was not changed by pretreatment of the cells with actinomycin D and cycloheximide for 5 h. In addition, treatment with pertussis or cholera toxin did not affect the inhibitory effect of 17beta-estradiol. 17beta-Estradiol also inhibited the ATP-induced [(3)H]NE secretion and [Ca(2+)](i) rise. In PC12 cells, the ATP-induced [Ca(2+)](i) rise is known to occur through P2X(2) receptors, the P2Y(2)-mediated phospholipase C (PLC) pathway, and VSCCs. 17beta-Estradiol pretreatment during complete inhibition of the PLC pathway and VSCCs inhibited the ATP-induced [Ca(2+)](i) rise. Our results suggest that 17beta-estradiol inhibits catecholamine secretion by inhibiting L- and N-type Ca(2+) channels and P2X(2) receptors in a nongenomic manner. 相似文献

Calmodulin antagonists inhibited hormone-stimulated cyclic AMP accumulation in both cultured cells and cell lysates of mouse B16 melanoma. Particulate preparations of B16 melanoma contained 34-45% of total cell calmodulin, which could not be dissociated by extensive washing irrespective of the presence of EGTA in the buffer. The adenylate cyclase activity in such preparations was unaffected by the addition of exogenous calmodulin. However, the rare-earth-metal ion La3+, which can mimic or replace Ca2+ in many systems, produced an immediate inhibition of agonist-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity and preincubation of particulate preparations was La3+ followed by washing with La3+-free buffer dissociated calmodulin (96% loss) from particulate preparations. The loss of calmodulin from particulate preparations was associated with a decrease in agonist responsiveness (74%) and a marked change in the Ca2+-sensitivity of the enzyme, low concentrations of calcium (approx. 10 nM) now failing to stimulate enzyme activity, high concentrations of calcium (greater than or equal to 100 nM) producing greater-than-normal inhibition of enzyme activity. Direct activation of adenylate cyclase by the addition of pure calmodulin was now demonstrable in such calmodulin-depleted particulate preparations. Half-maximal stimulation of agonist-responsive adenylate cyclase occurred at 80 nM-calmodulin in the presence of 10 microM free Ca2+. Maximal stimulation by calmodulin (at 300-600 nM) restored enzyme activity to 89 +/- 5% (mean +/- S.E.M., n = 7) of the activity in untreated, calmodulin-intact, preparations. 相似文献

Intracellular Ca2+ concentrations ([Ca2+]i) are regulated in a spatiotemporal manner via both entry of extracellular Ca2+ and mobilization of Ca2+ from intracellular stores. Metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 1 (mGluR1) is a G protein-coupled receptor that stimulates the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-Ca2+ signaling cascade, whereas Cav2.1 is a pore-forming channel protein of P/Q-type voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channels. In this investigation, we showed that mGluR1 and Cav2.1 are colocalized at dendrites of cerebellar Purkinje neurons and form the heteromeric assembly in both the brain and heterologously expressing COS-7 cells. This assembly occurs through the direct interaction between their carboxyl-terminal intracellular domains. Calcium imaging and whole-cell recording showed that mGluR1 inhibits Cav2.1-mediated [Ca2+]i increases and Ba2+ currents in HEK 293 cells expressing Cav2.1 with auxiliary alpha2/delta and beta1 subunits, respectively. This inhibition occurred in a ligand-independent manner and was enhanced by pre-activation of mGluR1 in a ligand-dependent manner. In contrast, simultaneous stimulation of mGluR1 and Cav2.1 induced large [Ca2+]i increases. Furthermore, the temporally regulated inhibition and stimulation of [Ca2+]i increases by mGluR1 and Cav2.1 were observed at dendrites but not soma of cultured Purkinje neurons. These data suggest that the assembly of mGluR1 and Cav2.1 provides the mechanism that ensures spatiotemporal regulation of [Ca2+]i in glutamatergic neurotransmission. 相似文献

Calmodulin inhibits inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) binding to the IP3 receptor in both a Ca2+-dependent and a Ca2+-independent way. Because there are no functional data on the modulation of the IP3-induced Ca2+ release by calmodulin at various Ca2+ concentrations, we have studied how cytosolic Ca2+ and Sr2+ interfere with the effects of calmodulin on the IP3-induced Ca2+ release in permeabilized A7r5 cells. We now report that calmodulin inhibited Ca2+ release through the IP3 receptor with an IC50 of 4.6 microM if the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration was 0.3 microM or higher. This inhibition was particularly pronounced at low IP3 concentrations. In contrast, calmodulin did not affect IP3-induced Ca2+ release if the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration was below 0.3 microM. Calmodulin also inhibited Ca2+ release through the IP3 receptor in the presence of at least 10 microM Sr2+. We conclude that cytosolic Ca2+ or Sr2+ are absolutely required for the calmodulin-induced inhibition of the IP3-induced Ca2+ release and that this dependence represents the formation of the Ca2+/calmodulin or Sr2+/calmodulin complex. 相似文献

Calmodulin plays a dominant role in determining neurotransmitter regulation of neuronal adenylate cyclase 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Ca2+, through the mediation of calmodulin, stimulates the activity of brain adenylate cyclase. The growing awareness that fluctuating Ca2+ concentrations play a major role in intracellular signalling prompted the present study, which aimed to investigate the implications for neurotransmitter (receptor) regulation of enzymatic activity of this calmodulin regulation. The role of Ca2+/calmodulin in regulating neurotransmitter-mediated inhibition and stimulation was assessed in a number of rat brain areas. Ca2+/calmodulin stimulated adenylate cyclase activity in EGTA-washed plasma preparations from each region studied--from 1.3-fold (in striatum) to 3.4-fold (in cerebral cortex). The fold-stimulation produced by Ca2+/calmodulin was decreased in the presence of GTP, forskolin, or Mn2+. In EGTA-washed membranes, receptor-mediated inhibition of adenylate cyclase was strictly dependent upon Ca2+/calmodulin stimulation in all regions, except striatum. A requirement for Mg2+ in combination with Ca2+/calmodulin to observe neurotransmitter-mediated inhibition was also observed. In contrast, receptor-mediated stimulation of activity was much greater in the absence of Ca2+/calmodulin. The findings demonstrate that ambient Ca2+ concentrations, in concert with endogenous calmodulin, may play a central role in dictating whether inhibition or stimulation of adenylate cyclase by neurotransmitters may proceed. 相似文献

Calmodulin (CaM) binds in a Ca2+-dependent manner to the intracellular C-terminal domains of most group III metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs). Here we combined mutational and biophysical approaches to define the structural basis of CaM binding to mGluR 7A. Ca2+/CaM was found to interact with mGluR 7A primarily via its C-lobe at a 1:1 CaM:C-tail stoichiometry. Pulldown experiments with mutant CaM and mGluR 7A C-tail constructs and high resolution NMR with peptides corresponding to the CaM binding region of mGluR 7A allowed us to define hydrophobic and ionic interactions required for Ca2+/CaM binding and identified a 1-8-14 CaM-binding motif. The Ca2+/CaM.mGluR 7A peptide complex displays a classical wraparound structure that closely resembles that formed by Ca2+/CaM upon binding to smooth muscle myosin light chain kinase. Our data provide insight into how Ca2+/CaM regulates group III mGluR signaling via competition with intracellular proteins for receptor-binding sites. 相似文献

Ca(2+)-loaded calmodulin normally inhibits multiple Ca(2+)-channels upon dangerous elevation of intracellular Ca(2+) and protects cells from Ca(2+)-cytotoxicity, so blocking of calmodulin should theoretically lead to uncontrolled elevation of intracellular Ca(2+). Paradoxically, classical anti-psychotic, anti-calmodulin drugs were noted here to inhibit Ca(2+)-uptake via the vanilloid inducible Ca(2+)-channel/inflamatory pain receptor 1 (TRPV1), which suggests that calmodulin inhibitors may block pore formation and Ca(2+) entry. Functional assays on TRPV1 expressing cells support direct, dose-dependent inhibition of vanilloid-induced (45)Ca(2+)-uptake at microM concentrations: calmidazolium (broad range) > or = trifluoperazine (narrow range) chlorpromazine/amitriptyline>fluphenazine>W-7 and W-13 (only partially). Most likely a short acidic domain at the pore loop of the channel orifice functions as binding site either for Ca(2+) or anti-calmodulin drugs. Camstatin, a selective peptide blocker of calmodulin, inhibits vanilloid-induced Ca(2+)-uptake in intact TRPV1(+) cells, and suggests an extracellular site of inhibition. TRPV1(+), inflammatory pain-conferring nociceptive neurons from sensory ganglia, were blocked by various anti-psychotic and anti-calmodulin drugs. Among them, calmidazolium, the most effective calmodulin agonist, blocked Ca(2+)-entry by a non-competitive kinetics, affecting the TRPV1 at a different site than the vanilloid binding pocket. Data suggest that various calmodulin antagonists dock to an extracellular site, not found in other Ca(2+)-channels. Calmodulin antagonist-evoked inhibition of TRPV1 and NMDA receptors/Ca(2+)-channels was validated by microiontophoresis of calmidazolium to laminectomised rat monitored with extracellular single unit recordings in vivo. These unexpected findings may explain empirically noted efficacy of clinical pain adjuvant therapy that justify efforts to develop hits into painkillers, selective to sensory Ca(2+)-channels but not affecting motoneurons. 相似文献

1-[N,O-Bis(5-isoquinolinesulfonyl)-N-methyl-L-tyrosyl]-4-phenylpipera zine (KN-62), a selective inhibitor of rat brain Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (Ca2+/CaM kinase II) was synthesized and its inhibitory properties in vitro and in vivo were investigated. KN-62 inhibited phosphorylation of exogenous substrate (chicken gizzard myosin 20-kDa light chain) by Ca2+/CaM kinase II with Ki value of 0.9 microM, but no significant effect up to 100 microM on activities of chicken gizzard myosin light chain kinase, rabbit brain protein kinase C, and bovine heart cAMP-dependent protein kinase type II. KN-62 also inhibited the Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent autophosphorylation of both alpha (50 kDa) and beta (60 kDa) subunits of Ca2+/CaM kinase II dose dependently in the presence or absence of exogenous substrate. Kinetic analysis indicated that this inhibitory effect of KN-62 was competitive with respect to calmodulin. However, KN-62 did not inhibit the activity of autophosphorylated Ca2+/CaM kinase II. Moreover, Ca2+/CaM kinase II bound to a KN-62-coupled Sepharose 4B column, but calmodulin did not. These results suggest that KN-62 affects the interaction between calmodulin and Ca2+/CaM kinase II following inhibition of this kinase activity by directly binding to the calmodulin binding site of the enzyme but does not affect the calmodulin-independent activity of already autophosphorylated (activated) enzyme. We examined the effect of KN-62 on cultured PC12 D pheochromocytoma cells. KN-62 suppressed the A23187 (0.5 microM)-induced autophosphorylation of the 53-kDa subunit of Ca2+/CaM kinase in PC12 D cells, which was immunoprecipitated with anti-rat forebrain Ca2+/CaM kinase II polypeptides antibodies coupled to Sepharose 4B, thereby suggesting that KN-62 could inhibit the Ca2+/CaM kinase II activity in vivo. 相似文献

Cannabinoid receptor agonists inhibit depolarization-induced calcium influx in cerebellar granule neurons. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Neuronal cannabinoid receptors (CB(1)) are coupled to inhibition of voltage-sensitive Ca(2+) channels (VSCCs) in several cell types. The purpose of these studies was to characterize the interaction between endogenous CB(1) receptors and VSCCs in cerebellar granule neurons (CGN). Ca(2+) transients were evoked by KCl-induced depolarization and imaged using fura-2. The CB(1) receptor agonists CP55940, Win 55212-2 and N-arachidonylethanolamine (anandamide) produced concentration-related decreases in peak amplitude of the Ca(2+) response and total Ca(2+) influx. Pre-treatment of CGN with pertussis toxin abolished agonist-mediated inhibition. The inhibitory effect of Win 55212-2 on Ca(2+) influx was additive with inhibition produced by omega-agatoxin IVA and nifedipine but not with omega-conotoxin GVIA, indicating that N-type VSCCs are the primary effector. Paradoxically, the CB(1) receptor antagonist, SR141716, also inhibited KCl-induced Ca(2+) influx into CGN in a concentration-related manner. SR141716 inhibition was pertussis toxin-insensitive and was not additive with the inhibition produced by Win 55212-2. Confocal imaging of CGN in primary culture demonstrate a high density of CB(1) receptor expression on CGN plasma membranes, including the neuritic processes. These data demonstrate that the CB(1) receptor is highly expressed by CGN and agonists serve as potent and efficacious inhibitory modulators of Ca(2+) influx through N-type VSCC. 相似文献

Caldesmon from chicken gizzard muscle has been examined for ability to interact with S100 protein using sedimentation, low-shear viscosity, and affinity chromatography. Ca2+/S100 protein, like Ca2+/calmodulin, inhibited the binding of caldesmon to F-actin in a concentration-dependent manner and the inhibition was not observed in the absence of Ca2+. Caldesmon was bound to S100 protein-Sepharose in the presence of Ca2+ and released with EGTA, indicating that there is a direct interaction between caldesmon and S100 protein. The binding of S100 protein to caldesmon also relieved actomyosin Mg2(+)-ATPase inhibition by caldesmon. The molar ratio of S100 protein to caldesmon required for half-maximal restoration was about 0.3, a value less than that in the case of calmodulin. S100 protein, however, was less effective in terms of the maximal extent of the restoration. With respect to Ca2(+)-sensitivity, the restoration profiles were monophasic with a midpoint at 3 x 10(-5) M for S100 protein and 8 x 10(-6) M for calmodulin. The restoration by S100 protein was almost wholly inhibited by TFP, but not by W-7. Taken together, our results suggest that a Ca2(+)-binding protein other than calmodulin may regulate caldesmon-dependent cellular functions. 相似文献

Ca(2+)/calmodulin (Ca(2+)/CaM) and the betagamma subunits of heterotrimeric G-proteins (Gbetagamma) have recently been shown to interact in a mutually exclusive fashion with the intracellular C terminus of the presynaptic metabotropic glutamate receptor 7 (mGluR 7). Here, we further characterized the core CaM and Gbetagamma binding sequences. In contrast to a previous report, we find that the CaM binding motif localized in the N-terminal region of the cytoplasmic tail domain of mGluR 7 is conserved in the related group III mGluRs 4A and 8 and allows these receptors to also bind Ca(2+)/CaM. Mutational analysis of the Ca(2+)/CaM binding motif is consistent with group III receptors containing a conventional CaM binding site formed by an amphipathic alpha-helix. Substitutions adjacent to the core CaM target sequence selectively prevent Gbetagamma binding, suggesting that the CaM-dependent regulation of signal transduction involves determinants that overlap with but are different from those mediating Gbetagamma recruitment. In addition, we present evidence that Gbetagamma uses distinct nonoverlapping interfaces for interaction with the mGluR 7 C-terminal tail and the effector enzyme adenylyl cyclase II, respectively. Although Gbetagamma-mediated signaling is abolished in receptors lacking the core CaM binding sequence, alpha subunit activation, as assayed by agonist-dependent GTPgammaS binding, was not affected. This suggests that Ca(2+)/CaM may alter the mode of group III mGluR signaling from mono- (alpha) to bidirectional (alpha and betagamma) activation of downstream effector cascades. 相似文献

Calcium/calmodulin modulation of olfactory and rod cyclic nucleotide-gated ion channels 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Cyclic nucleotide-gated (CNG) ion channels mediate sensory transduction in olfactory sensory neurons and retinal photoreceptor cells. In these systems, internal calcium/calmodulin (Ca2+/CaM) inhibits CNG channels, thereby having a putative role in sensory adaptation. Functional differences in Ca2+/CaM-dependent inhibition depend on the different subunit composition of olfactory and rod CNG channels. Recent evidence shows that three subunit types (CNGA2, CNGA4, and CNGB1b) make up native olfactory CNG channels and account for the fast inhibition of native channels by Ca2+/CaM. In contrast, two subunit types (CNGA1 and CNGB1) appear sufficient to mirror the native properties of rod CNG channels, including the inhibition by Ca2+/CaM. Within CNG channel tetramers, specific subunit interactions also mediate Ca2+/CaM-dependent inhibition. In olfactory CNGA2 channels, Ca2+/CaM binds to an N-terminal region and disrupts an interaction between the N- and C-terminal regions, causing inhibition. Ca2+/CaM also binds the N-terminal region of CNGB1 subunits and disrupts an intersubunit, N- and C-terminal interaction between CNGB1 and CNGA1 subunits in rod channels. However, the precise N- and C-terminal regions that form these interactions in olfactory channels are different from those in rod channels. Here, we will review recent advances in understanding the subunit composition and the mechanisms and roles for Ca2+/CaM-dependent inhibition in olfactory and rod CNG channels. 相似文献

Bradykinin (BK) is involved in bone resorption in chronic inflammatory diseases. During bone formation, 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) plays an important role in the regulation of Ca2+. In osteoblasts, 1,25(OH)2D3 stimulates transmembrane influx of Ca2+ through voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channels (VSCCs). Voltage sensitive Ca2+ channels serve as crucial mediators of membrane excitability and many Ca2+-dependent functions, including bone growth, regulation of proliferation, enzyme activity and gene expression. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of BK and 1,25(OH)2D3 on VSCC currents carried by Ba2+ (IBa). Application of 1,25(OH)2D3 facilitated IBa in a voltage-dependent manner. Pretreatment with SQ22536 (an adenylate cyclase inhibitor) attenuated 1,25(OH)2D3-induced facilitation of IBa. Bradykinin and BK1 receptor agonist [Lys-des-Arg9]-BK also facilitated IBa. After 24 h or 7 days exposure to BK, that is, under chronic inflammatory conditions, application of 1,25(OH)2D3 inhibited IBa. In addition, pretreatment with PD98,059, a mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) tyrosine kinase inhibitor, attenuated 1,25(OH)2D3-induced inhibition of IBa. These results indicate that, under normal conditions, 1,25(OH)2D3 acts with adenylate cyclase to facilitate VSCCs, whereas under chronic inflammatory conditions it acts with MAPK to inhibit VSCCs in pre-osteoblasts. 相似文献

To quantify the modulation of KCNQ2/3 current by [Ca2+]i and to test if calmodulin (CaM) mediates this action, simultaneous whole-cell recording and Ca2+ imaging was performed on CHO cells expressing KCNQ2/3 channels, either alone, or together with wild-type (wt) CaM, or dominant-negative (DN) CaM. We varied [Ca2+]i from <10 to >400 nM with ionomycin (5 microM) added to either a 2 mM Ca2+, or EGTA-buffered Ca2+-free, solution. Coexpression of wt CaM made KCNQ2/3 currents highly sensitive to [Ca2+]i (IC50 70 +/- 20 nM, max inhibition 73%, n = 10). However, coexpression of DN CaM rendered KCNQ2/3 currents largely [Ca2+]i insensitive (max inhibition 8 +/- 3%, n = 10). In cells without cotransfected CaM, the Ca2+ sensitivity was variable but generally weak. [Ca2+]i modulation of M current in superior cervical ganglion (SCG) neurons followed the same pattern as in CHO cells expressed with KCNQ2/3 and wt CaM, suggesting that endogenous M current is also highly sensitive to [Ca2+]i. Coimmunoprecipitations showed binding of CaM to KCNQ2-5 that was similar in the presence of 5 mM Ca2+ or 5 mM EGTA. Gel-shift analyses suggested Ca2+-dependent CaM binding to an "IQ-like" motif present in the carboxy terminus of KCNQ2-5. We tested whether bradykinin modulation of M current in SCG neurons uses CaM. Wt or DN CaM was exogenously expressed in SCG cells using pseudovirions or the biolistic "gene gun." Using both methods, expression of both wt CaM and DN CaM strongly reduced bradykinin inhibition of M current, but for all groups muscarinic inhibition was unaffected. Cells expressed with wt CaM had strongly reduced tonic current amplitudes as well. We observed similar [Ca2+]i rises by bradykinin in all the groups of cells, indicating that CaM did not affect Ca2+ release from stores. We conclude that M-type currents are highly sensitive to [Ca2+]i and that calmodulin acts as their Ca2+ sensor. 相似文献
