We have used fluorescence spectroscopy, molecular modeling, and limited proteolysis to examine structural dynamics of the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca-ATPase (SERCA). The Ca-ATPase in sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles from fast twitch muscle (SERCA1a isoform) was selectively labeled with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), a probe that specifically reacts with Lys-515 in the nucleotide-binding site. Conformation-specific proteolysis demonstrated that FITC labeling does not induce closure of the cytoplasmic headpiece, thereby assigning FITC-SERCA as a nucleotide-free enzyme. We used enzyme reverse mode to synthesize FITC monophosphate (FMP) on SERCA, producing a phosphorylated pseudosubstrate tethered to the nucleotide-binding site of a Ca2+-free enzyme (E2 state to prevent FMP hydrolysis). Conformation-specific proteolysis demonstrated that FMP formation induces SERCA headpiece closure similar to ATP binding, presumably due to the high energy phosphoryl group on the fluorescent probe (ATP·E2 analog). Subnanosecond-resolved detection of fluorescence lifetime, anisotropy, and quenching was used to characterize FMP-SERCA (ATP·E2 state) versus FITC-SERCA in Ca2+-free, Ca2+-bound, and actively cycling phosphoenzyme states (E2, E1, and EP). Time-resolved spectroscopy revealed that FMP-SERCA exhibits increased probe dynamics but decreased probe accessibility compared with FITC-SERCA, indicating that ATP exhibits enhanced dynamics within a closed cytoplasmic headpiece. Molecular modeling was used to calculate the solvent-accessible surface area of FITC and FMP bound to SERCA crystal structures, revealing a positive correlation of solvent-accessible surface area with quenching but not anisotropy. Thus, headpiece closure is coupled to substrate binding but not active site dynamics. We propose that dynamics in the nucleotide-binding site of SERCA is important for Ca2+ binding (distal allostery) and phosphoenzyme formation (direct activation). 相似文献

The Ca2+ transport ATPase (SERCA) of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) plays an important role in muscle cytosolic signaling, as it stores Ca2+ in intracellular membrane bound compartments, thereby lowering cytosolic Ca2+ to induce relaxation. The stored Ca2+ is in turn released upon membrane excitation to trigger muscle contraction. SERCA is activated by high affinity binding of cytosolic Ca2+, whereupon ATP is utilized by formation of a phosphoenzyme intermediate, which undergoes protein conformational transitions yielding reduced affinity and vectorial translocation of bound Ca2+. We review here biochemical and biophysical evidence demonstrating that release of bound Ca2+ into the lumen of SR requires Ca2+/H+ exchange at the low affinity Ca2+ sites. Rise of lumenal Ca2+ above its dissociation constant from low affinity sites, or reduction of the H+ concentration by high pH, prevent Ca2+/H+ exchange. Under these conditions Ca2+ release into the lumen of SR is bypassed, and hydrolytic cleavage of phosphoenzyme may yield uncoupled ATPase cycles. We clarify how such Ca2+pump slippage does not occur within the time length of muscle twitches, but under special conditions and in special cells may contribute to thermogenesis. 相似文献

We have performed microsecond molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to characterize the structural dynamics of cation-bound E1 intermediate states of the calcium pump (sarcoendoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase, SERCA) in atomic detail, including a lipid bilayer with aqueous solution on both sides. X-ray crystallography with 40 mM Mg2+ in the absence of Ca2+ has shown that SERCA adopts an E1 structure with transmembrane Ca2+-binding sites I and II exposed to the cytosol, stabilized by a single Mg2+ bound to a hybrid binding site I′. This Mg2+-bound E1 intermediate state, designated E1•Mg2+, is proposed to constitute a functional SERCA intermediate that catalyzes the transition from E2 to E1•2Ca2+ by facilitating H+/Ca2+ exchange. To test this hypothesis, we performed two independent MD simulations based on the E1•Mg2+ crystal structure, starting in the presence or absence of initially-bound Mg2+. Both simulations were performed for 1 µs in a solution containing 100 mM K+ and 5 mM Mg2+ in the absence of Ca2+, mimicking muscle cytosol during relaxation. In the presence of initially-bound Mg2+, SERCA site I′ maintained Mg2+ binding during the entire MD trajectory, and the cytosolic headpiece maintained a semi-open structure. In the absence of initially-bound Mg2+, two K+ ions rapidly bound to sites I and I′ and stayed loosely bound during most of the simulation, while the cytosolic headpiece shifted gradually to a more open structure. Thus MD simulations predict that both E1•Mg2+ and E•2K+ intermediate states of SERCA are populated in solution in the absence of Ca2+, with the more open 2K+-bound state being more abundant at physiological ion concentrations. We propose that the E1•2K+ state acts as a functional intermediate that facilitates the E2 to E1•2Ca2+ transition through two mechanisms: by pre-organizing transport sites for Ca2+ binding, and by partially opening the cytosolic headpiece prior to Ca2+ activation of nucleotide binding. 相似文献

Phospholamban (PLB) inhibits the activity of SERCA2a, the Ca2+-ATPase in cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum, by decreasing the apparent affinity of the enzyme for Ca2+. Recent cross-linking studies have suggested that PLB binding and Ca2+ binding to SERCA2a are mutually exclusive. PLB binds to the E2 conformation of the Ca2+-ATPase, preventing formation of E1, the conformation that binds two Ca2+ (at sites I and II) with high affinity and is required for ATP hydrolysis. Here we determined whether Ca2+ binding to site I, site II, or both sites is sufficient to dissociate PLB from the Ca2+ pump. Seven SERCA2a mutants with amino acid substitutions at Ca2+-binding site I (E770Q, T798A, and E907Q), site II (E309Q and N795A), or both sites (D799N and E309Q/E770Q) were made, and the effects of Ca2+ on N30C-PLB cross-linking to Lys328 of SERCA2a were measured. In agreement with earlier reports with the skeletal muscle Ca2+-ATPase, none of the SERCA2a mutants (except E907Q) hydrolyzed ATP in the presence of Ca2+; however, all were phosphorylatable by Pi to form E2P. Ca2+ inhibition of E2P formation was observed only in SERCA2a mutants retaining site I. In cross-linking assays, strong cross-linking between N30C-PLB and each Ca2+-ATPase mutant was observed in the absence of Ca2+. Importantly, however, micromolar Ca2+ inhibited PLB cross-linking only to mutants retaining a functional Ca2+-binding site I. The dynamic equilibrium between Ca2+ pumps and N30C-PLB was retained by all mutants, demonstrating normal regulation of cross-linking by ATP, thapsigargin, and anti-PLB antibody. From these results we conclude that site I is the key Ca2+-binding site regulating the physical association between PLB and SERCA2a. 相似文献

The molecular mechanism underlying the characteristic high apparent Ca2+ affinity of SERCA2b relative to SERCA1a and SERCA2a isoforms was studied. The C-terminal tail of SERCA2b consists of an 11th transmembrane helix (TM11) with an associated 11-amino acid luminal extension (LE). The effects of each of these parts and their interactions with the SERCA environment were examined by transient kinetic analysis of the partial reaction steps in the Ca2+ transport cycle in mutant and chimeric Ca2+-ATPase constructs. Manipulations to the LE of SERCA2b markedly increased the rate of Ca2+ dissociation from Ca2E1. Addition of the SERCA2b tail to SERCA1a slowed Ca2+ dissociation, but only when the luminal L7/8 loop of SERCA1 was simultaneously replaced with that of SERCA2, thus suggesting that the LE interacts with L7/8 in Ca2E1. The interaction of LE with L7/8 is also important for the low rate of the Ca2E1P → E2P conformational transition. These findings can be rationalized in terms of stabilization of the Ca2E1 and Ca2E1P forms by docking of the LE near L7/8. By contrast, low rates of E2P dephosphorylation and E2 → E1 transition in SERCA2b depend critically on TM11, particularly in a SERCA2 environment, but do not at all depend on the LE or L7/8. This indicates that interaction of TM11 with SERCA2-specific sequence element(s) elsewhere in the structure is critical in the Ca2+-free E2/E2P states. Collectively these properties ensure a higher Ca2+ affinity of SERCA2b relative to other SERCA isoforms, not only on the cytosolic side, but also on the luminal side. 相似文献

Sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+ATPase (SERCA) pump activity is modulated by phospholamban (PLB) and sarcolipin (SLN) in cardiac and skeletal muscle. Recent data suggest that SLN could play a role in muscle thermogenesis by promoting uncoupling of the SERCA pump (Lee, A.G. (2002) Curr. Opin. Struct. Biol. 12, 547–554 and Bal, N. C., Maurya, S. K., Sopariwala, D. H., Sahoo, S. K., Gupta, S. C., Shaikh, S. A., Pant, M., Rowland, L. A., Bombardier, E., Goonasekera, S. A., Tupling, A. R., Molkentin, J. D., and Periasamy, M. (2012) Nat. Med. 18, 1575–1579), but the mechanistic details are unknown. To better define how binding of SLN to SERCA promotes uncoupling of SERCA, we compared SLN and SERCA1 interaction with that of PLB in detail. The homo-bifunctional cross-linker (1,6-bismaleimidohexane) was employed to detect dynamic protein interaction during the SERCA cycle. Our studies reveal that SLN differs significantly from PLB: 1) SLN primarily affects the Vmax of SERCA-mediated Ca2+ uptake but not the pump affinity for Ca2+; 2) SLN can bind to SERCA in the presence of high Ca2+, but PLB can only interact to the ATP-bound Ca2+-free E2 state; and 3) unlike PLB, SLN interacts with SERCA throughout the kinetic cycle and promotes uncoupling of the SERCA pump. Using SERCA transmembrane mutants, we additionally show that PLB and SLN can bind to the same groove but interact with a different set of residues on SERCA. These data collectively suggest that SLN is functionally distinct from PLB; its ability to interact with SERCA in the presence of Ca2+ causes uncoupling of the SERCA pump and increased heat production. 相似文献

Chemical cross-linking was used to study protein binding interactions between native phospholamban (PLB) and SERCA2a in sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) vesicles prepared from normal and failed human hearts. Lys27 of PLB was cross-linked to the Ca2+ pump at the cytoplasmic extension of M4 (at or near Lys328) with the homobifunctional cross-linker, disuccinimidyl glutarate (7.7 Å). Cross-linking was augmented by ATP but abolished by Ca2+ or thapsigargin, confirming in native SR vesicles that PLB binds preferentially to E2 (low Ca2+ affinity conformation of the Ca2+-ATPase) stabilized by ATP. To assess the functional effects of PLB binding on SERCA2a activity, the anti-PLB antibody, 2D12, was used to disrupt the physical interactions between PLB and SERCA2a in SR vesicles. We observed a tight correlation between 2D12-induced inhibition of PLB cross-linking to SERCA2a and 2D12 stimulation of Ca2+-ATPase activity and Ca2+ transport. The results suggest that the inhibitory effect of PLB on Ca2+-ATPase activity in SR vesicles results from mutually exclusive binding of PLB and Ca2+ to the Ca2+ pump, requiring PLB dissociation for catalytic activation. Importantly, the same result was obtained with SR vesicles prepared from normal and failed human hearts; therefore, we conclude that PLB binding interactions with the Ca2+ pump are largely unchanged in failing myocardium. 相似文献

Neuronal dendrites are vulnerable to injury under diverse pathological conditions. However, the underlying mechanisms for dendritic Na+ overload and the selective dendritic injury remain poorly understood. Our current study demonstrates that activation of NHE-1 (Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 1) in dendrites presents a major pathway for Na+ overload. Neuronal dendrites exhibited higher pHi regulation rates than soma as a result of a larger surface area/volume ratio. Following a 2-h oxygen glucose deprivation and a 1-h reoxygenation, NHE-1 activity was increased by ∼70–200% in dendrites. This elevation depended on activation of p90 ribosomal S6 kinase. Moreover, stimulation of NHE-1 caused dendritic Na+i accumulation, swelling, and a concurrent loss of Ca2+i homeostasis. The Ca2+i overload in dendrites preceded the changes in soma. Inhibition of NHE-1 or the reverse mode of Na+/Ca2+ exchange prevented these changes. Mitochondrial membrane potential in dendrites depolarized 40 min earlier than soma following oxygen glucose deprivation/reoxygenation. Blocking NHE-1 activity not only attenuated loss of dendritic mitochondrial membrane potential and mitochondrial Ca2+ homeostasis but also preserved dendritic membrane integrity. Taken together, our study demonstrates that NHE-1-mediated Na+ entry and subsequent Na+/Ca2+ exchange activation contribute to the selective dendritic vulnerability to in vitro ischemia. 相似文献

Mitochondria of Drosophila melanogaster undergo Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release through a putative channel (mCrC) that has several regulatory features of the permeability transition pore (PTP). The PTP is an inner membrane channel that forms from F-ATPase, possessing a conductance of 500 picosiemens (pS) in mammals and of 300 pS in yeast. In contrast to the PTP, the mCrC of Drosophila is not permeable to sucrose and appears to be selective for Ca2+ and H+. We show (i) that like the PTP, the mCrC is affected by the sense of rotation of F-ATPase, by Bz-423, and by Mg2+/ADP; (ii) that expression of human cyclophilin D in mitochondria of Drosophila S2R+ cells sensitizes the mCrC to Ca2+ but does not increase its apparent size; and (iii) that purified dimers of D. melanogaster F-ATPase reconstituted into lipid bilayers form 53-pS channels activated by Ca2+ and thiol oxidants and inhibited by Mg2+/γ-imino ATP. These findings indicate that the mCrC is the PTP of D. melanogaster and that the signature conductance of F-ATPase channels depends on unique structural features that may underscore specific roles in different species. 相似文献

Direct evidence for the occurrence of an ADP-sensitive phosphoenzyme of (K+ + H+)-ATPase, the proton-pumping system of the gastric parietal cell is presented. The enzyme is phosphorylated with 5 μM [γ-32P]ATP in 50 mM imidazole-HCl (pH 7.0) and in the presence of 7–15 μM Mg2+. Addition of 5 mM ADP to this preparation greatly accelerates its hydrolysis. We have been able to establish this by stopping the phosphorylation with radioactive ATP, by adding 1 mM non-radioactive ATP, which leads to a slow monoexponential process of dephosphorylation of 32P-labeled enzyme. The relative proportion of the ADP-sensitive phosphoenzyme is 22% of the total phosphoenzyme. Values for the rate constants of breakdown and interconversion of the two phosphoenzyme forms have been determined. 相似文献

We performed protein pKa calculations and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of the calcium pump (sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA)) in complex with phospholamban (PLB). X-ray crystallography studies have suggested that PLB locks SERCA in a low-Ca2+-affinity E2 state that is incompatible with metal-ion binding, thereby blocking the conversion toward a high-Ca2+-affinity E1 state. Estimation of pKa values of the acidic residues in the transport sites indicates that at normal intracellular pH (7.1–7.2), PLB-bound SERCA populates an E1 state that is deprotonated at residues E309 and D800 yet protonated at residue E771. We performed three independent microsecond-long MD simulations to evaluate the structural dynamics of SERCA-PLB in a solution containing 100 mM K+ and 3 mM Mg2+. Principal component analysis showed that PLB-bound SERCA lies exclusively along the structural ensemble of the E1 state. We found that the transport sites of PLB-bound SERCA are completely exposed to the cytosol and that K+ ions bind transiently (≤5 ns) and nonspecifically (nine different positions) to the two transport sites, with a total occupancy time of K+ in the transport sites of 80%. We propose that PLB binding to SERCA populates a novel (to our knowledge) E1 intermediate, E1⋅H+771. This intermediate serves as a kinetic trap that controls headpiece dynamics and depresses the structural transitions necessary for Ca2+-dependent activation of SERCA. We conclude that PLB-mediated regulation of SERCA activity in the heart results from biochemical and structural transitions that occur primarily in the E1 state of the pump. 相似文献

Three cross-linkable phospholamban (PLB) mutants of increasing inhibitory strength (N30C-PLB < N27A,N30C,L37A-PLB (PLB3) < N27A,N30C,L37A,V49G-PLB (PLB4)) were used to determine whether PLB decreases the Ca2+ affinity of SERCA2a by competing for Ca2+ binding. The functional effects of N30C-PLB, PLB3, and PLB4 on Ca2+-ATPase activity and E1∼P formation were correlated with their binding interactions with SERCA2a measured by chemical cross-linking. Successively higher Ca2+ concentrations were required to both activate the enzyme co-expressed with N30C-PLB, PLB3, and PLB4 and to dissociate N30C-PLB, PLB3, and PLB4 from SERCA2a, suggesting competition between PLB and Ca2+ for binding to SERCA2a. This was confirmed with the Ca2+ pump mutant, D351A, which is catalytically inactive but retains strong Ca2+ binding. Increasingly higher Ca2+ concentrations were also required to dissociate N30C-PLB, PLB3, and PLB4 from D351A, demonstrating directly that PLB antagonizes Ca2+ binding. Finally, the specific conformation of E2 (Ca2+-free state of SERCA2a) that binds PLB was investigated using the Ca2+-pump inhibitors thapsigargin and vanadate. Cross-linking assays conducted in the absence of Ca2+ showed that PLB bound preferentially to E2 with bound nucleotide, forming a remarkably stable complex that is highly resistant to both thapsigargin and vanadate. In the presence of ATP, N30C-PLB had an affinity for SERCA2a approaching that of vanadate (micromolar), whereas PLB3 and PLB4 had much higher affinities, severalfold greater than even thapsigargin (nanomolar or higher). We conclude that PLB decreases Ca2+ binding to SERCA2a by stabilizing a unique E2·ATP state that is unable to bind thapsigargin or vanadate. 相似文献

Ca2+ transport by the sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase (SERCA) is sensitive to monovalent cations. Possible K+ binding sites have been identified in both the cytoplasmic P-domain and the transmembrane transport-domain of the protein. We measured Ca2+ transport into SR vesicles and SERCA ATPase activity in the presence of different monovalent cations. We found that the effects of monovalent cations on Ca2+ transport correlated in most cases with their direct effects on SERCA. Choline+, however, inhibited uptake to a greater extent than could be accounted for by its direct effect on SERCA suggesting a possible effect of choline on compensatory charge movement during Ca2+ transport. Of the monovalent cations tested, only Cs+ significantly affected the Hill coefficient of Ca2+ transport (nH). An increase in nH from ∼2 in K+ to ∼3 in Cs+ was seen in all of the forms of SERCA examined. The effects of Cs+ on the maximum velocity of Ca2+ uptake were also different for different forms of SERCA but these differences could not be attributed to differences in the putative K+ binding sites of the different forms of the protein. 相似文献

NGF induces neuronal differentiation by modulating [Ca2+]i. However, the role of the three isoforms of the main Ca2+-extruding system, the Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (NCX), in NGF-induced differentiation remains unexplored. We investigated whether NCX1, NCX2, and NCX3 isoforms could play a relevant role in neuronal differentiation through the modulation of [Ca2+]i and the Akt pathway. NGF caused progressive neurite elongation; a significant increase of the well known marker of growth cones, GAP-43; and an enhancement of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca2+ content and of Akt phosphorylation through an early activation of ERK1/2. Interestingly, during NGF-induced differentiation, the NCX1 protein level increased, NCX3 decreased, and NCX2 remained unaffected. At the same time, NCX total activity increased. Moreover, NCX1 colocalized and coimmunoprecipitated with GAP-43, and NCX1 silencing prevented NGF-induced effects on GAP-43 expression, Akt phosphorylation, and neurite outgrowth. On the other hand, the overexpression of its neuronal splicing isoform, NCX1.4, even in the absence of NGF, induced an increase in Akt phosphorylation and GAP-43 protein expression. Interestingly, tetrodotoxin-sensitive Na+ currents and 1,3-benzenedicarboxylic acid, 4,4′-[1,4,10-trioxa-7,13-diazacyclopentadecane-7,13-diylbis(5-methoxy-6,12-benzofurandiyl)]bis-, tetrakis[(acetyloxy)methyl] ester-detected [Na+]i significantly increased in cells overexpressing NCX1.4 as well as ER Ca2+ content. This latter effect was prevented by tetrodotoxin. Furthermore, either the [Ca2+]i chelator(1,2-bis(o-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetic acid) (BAPTA-AM) or the PI3K inhibitor LY 294002 prevented Akt phosphorylation and GAP-43 protein expression rise in NCX1.4 overexpressing cells. Moreover, in primary cortical neurons, NCX1 silencing prevented Akt phosphorylation, GAP-43 and MAP2 overexpression, and neurite elongation. Collectively, these data show that NCX1 participates in neuronal differentiation through the modulation of ER Ca2+ content and PI3K signaling. 相似文献

The sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase (SERCA) is key to Ca2+ homeostasis and is redox-regulated by reversible glutathione (GSH) adducts on the cysteine (C) 674 thiol that stimulate Ca2+ uptake activity and endothelial cell angiogenic responses in vitro. We found that mouse hind limb muscle ischemia induced S-glutathione adducts on SERCA in both whole muscle tissue and endothelial cells. To determine the role of S-glutathiolation, we used a SERCA 2 C674S heterozygote knock-in (SKI) mouse lacking half the key thiol. Following hind limb ischemia, SKI animals had decreased SERCA S-glutathione adducts and impaired blood flow recovery. We studied SKI microvascular endothelial cells in which total SERCA 2 expression was unchanged. Cultured SKI microvascular endothelial cells showed impaired migration and network formation compared with wild type (WT). Ca2+ studies showed decreased nitric oxide (·NO)-induced 45Ca2+ uptake into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of SKI cells, while Fura-2 studies revealed lower Ca2+ stores and decreased vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)- and ·NO-induced Ca2+ influx. Adenoviral overexpression of calreticulin, an ER Ca2+ binding protein, increased ionomycin-releasable stores, VEGF-induced Ca2+ influx and endothelial cell migration. Taken together, these data indicate that the redox-sensitive Cys-674 thiol on SERCA 2 is required for normal endothelial cell Ca2+ homeostasis and ischemia-induced angiogenic responses, revealing a novel redox control of angiogenesis via Ca2+ stores. 相似文献

The epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC), composed of three subunits (α, β, and γ), is expressed in several epithelia and plays a critical role in salt and water balance and in the regulation of blood pressure. Little is known, however, about the electrophysiological properties of this cloned channel when expressed in epithelial cells. Using whole-cell and single channel current recording techniques, we have now characterized the rat αβγENaC (rENaC) stably transfected and expressed in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells. Under whole-cell patch-clamp configuration, the αβγrENaC-expressing MDCK cells exhibited greater whole cell Na+ current at −143 mV (−1,466.2 ± 297.5 pA) than did untransfected cells (−47.6 ± 10.7 pA). This conductance was completely and reversibly inhibited by 10 μM amiloride, with a Ki of 20 nM at a membrane potential of −103 mV; the amiloride inhibition was slightly voltage dependent. Amiloride-sensitive whole-cell current of MDCK cells expressing αβ or αγ subunits alone was −115.2 ± 41.4 pA and −52.1 ± 24.5 pA at −143 mV, respectively, similar to the whole-cell Na+ current of untransfected cells. Relaxation analysis of the amiloride-sensitive current after voltage steps suggested that the channels were activated by membrane hyperpolarization. Ion selectivity sequence of the Na+ conductance was Li+ > Na+ >> K+ = N-methyl-d-glucamine+ (NMDG+). Using excised outside-out patches, amiloride-sensitive single channel conductance, likely responsible for the macroscopic Na+ channel current, was found to be ∼5 and 8 pS when Na+ and Li+ were used as a charge carrier, respectively. K+ conductance through the channel was undetectable. The channel activity, defined as a product of the number of active channel (n) and open probability (P
o), was increased by membrane hyperpolarization. Both whole-cell Na+ current and conductance were saturated with increased extracellular Na+ concentrations, which likely resulted from saturation of the single channel conductance. The channel activity (nP
o) was significantly decreased when cytosolic Na+ concentration was increased from 0 to 50 mM in inside-out patches. Whole-cell Na+ conductance (with Li+ as a charge carrier) was inhibited by the addition of ionomycin (1 μM) and Ca2+ (1 mM) to the bath. Dialysis of the cells with a pipette solution containing 1 μM Ca2+ caused a biphasic inhibition, with time constants of 1.7 ± 0.3 min (n = 3) and 128.4 ± 33.4 min (n = 3). An increase in cytosolic Ca2+ concentration from <1 nM to 1 μM was accompanied by a decrease in channel activity. Increasing cytosolic Ca2+ to 10 μM exhibited a pronounced inhibitory effect. Single channel conductance, however, was unchanged by increasing free Ca2+ concentrations from <1 nM to 10 μM. Collectively, these results provide the first characterization of rENaC heterologously expressed in a mammalian epithelial cell line, and provide evidence for channel regulation by cytosolic Na+ and Ca2+. 相似文献

We studied the ATP dependence of NHE-1, the ubiquitous isoform of the Na+/H+ antiporter, using
the whole-cell configuration of the patch-clamp technique to apply nucleotides intracellularly while measuring cytosolic pH (pHi) by microfluorimetry. Na+/H+ exchange activity was measured as the Na+-driven pHi recovery
from an acid load, which was imposed via the patch pipette. In Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) fibroblasts stably
transfected with NHE-1, omission of ATP from the pipette solution inhibited Na+/H+ exchange. Conversely, ATP
perfusion restored exchange activity in cells that had been metabolically depleted by 2-deoxy-d-glucose and oligomycin. In cells dialyzed in the presence of ATP, no “run-down” was observed even after extended periods, suggesting that the nucleotide is the only diffusible factor required for optimal NHE-1 activity. Half-maximal activation of
the antiporter was obtained at ∼5 mM Mg-ATP. Submillimolar concentrations failed to sustain Na+/H+ exchange
even when an ATP regenerating system was included in the pipette solution. High ATP concentrations are also
known to be required for the optimal function of other cation exchangers. In the case of the Na/Ca2+ exchanger,
this requirement has been attributed to an aminophospholipid translocase, or “flippase.” The involvement of this
enzyme in Na+/H+ exchange was examined using fluorescent phosphatidylserine, which is actively translocated
by the flippase. ATP depletion decreased the transmembrane uptake of NBD-labeled phosphatidylserine (NBD-PS), indicating that the flippase was inhibited. Diamide, an agent reported to block the flippase, was as potent as
ATP depletion in reducing NBD-PS uptake. However, diamide had no effect on Na+/H+ exchange, implying that
the effect of ATP is not mediated by changes in lipid distribution across the plasma membrane. K-ATP and ATPγS
were as efficient as Mg-ATP in sustaining NHE-1 activity, while AMP-PNP and AMP-PCP only partially substituted
for ATP. In contrast, GTPγS was ineffective. We conclude that ATP is the only soluble factor necessary for optimal
activity of the NHE-1 isoform of the antiporter. Mg2+ does not appear to be essential for the stimulatory effect of
ATP. We propose that two mechanisms mediate the activation of the antiporter by ATP: one requires hydrolysis
and is likely an energy-dependent event. The second process does not involve hydrolysis of the γ-phosphate, excluding mediation by protein or lipid kinases. We suggest that this effect is due to binding of ATP to an as yet unidentified, nondiffusible effector that activates the antiporter. 相似文献
