Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channels are intimately linked with health and disease. The gene encoding the CRAC channel, ORAI1, was discovered in part by genetic analysis of patients with abolished CRAC channel function. And patients with autosomal recessive loss-of-function (LOF) mutations in ORAI1 and its activator stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) that abolish CRAC channel function and store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) define essential functions of CRAC channels in health and disease. Conversely, gain-of-function (GOF) mutations in ORAI1 and STIM1 are associated with tubular aggregate myopathy (TAM) and Stormorken syndrome due to constitutive CRAC channel activation. In addition, genetically engineered animal models of ORAI and STIM function have provided important insights into the physiological and pathophysiological roles of CRAC channels in cell types and organs beyond those affected in human patients. The picture emerging from this body of work shows CRAC channels as important regulators of cell function in many tissues, and as potential drug targets for the treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory disorders. 相似文献

Store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) is a universal mechanism to increase intracellular Ca2+ concentrations in non-excitable cells. It is initiated by the depletion of ER Ca2+ stores, activation of stromal interaction molecule (STIM) 1 and gating of the Ca2+ release activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channel ORAI1 in the plasma membrane. We identified a minimal activation domain in the cytoplasmic region of STIM1 (CCb9) which activated Ca2+ influx and CRAC currents (ICRAC) in the absence of store depletion similar to but more potently than the entire C terminus of STIM1. A STIM1 fragment (CCb7) that is longer by 31 amino acids than CCb9 at its C terminal end showed reduced ability to constitutively activate ICRAC consistent with our observation that CCb9 but not CCb7 efficiently colocalized with and bound to ORAI1. Intracellular application of a 31 amino acid peptide contained in CCb7 but not CCb9 inhibited constitutive and store-dependent CRAC channel activation. In summary, these findings suggest that CCb9 represents a minimal ORAI1 activation domain within STIM1 that is masked by an adjacent 31 amino acid peptide preventing efficient CRAC channel activation in cells with replete Ca2+ stores. 相似文献

Stromal interaction molecule (STIM1) and ORAI1 are key components of the Ca2+ release‐activated Ca2+ (CRAC) current having an important role in T‐cell activation and mast cell degranulation. CRAC channel activation occurs via physical interaction of ORAI1 with STIM1 when endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ stores are depleted. Here we show, utilizing a novel STIM1‐derived Förster resonance energy transfer sensor, that the ORAI1 activating small fragment (OASF) undergoes a C‐terminal, intramolecular transition into an extended conformation when activating ORAI1. The C‐terminal rearrangement of STIM1 does not require a functional CRAC channel, suggesting interaction with ORAI1 as sufficient for this conformational switch. Extended conformations were also engineered by mutations within the first and third coiled‐coil domains in the cytosolic portion of STIM1 revealing the involvement of hydrophobic residues in the intramolecular transition. Corresponding full‐length STIM1 mutants exhibited enhanced interaction with ORAI1 inducing constitutive CRAC currents, even in the absence of store depletion. We suggest that these mutant STIM1 proteins imitate a physiological activated state, which mimics the intramolecular transition that occurs in native STIM1 upon store depletion. 相似文献

STIM1 and ORAI1, the two limiting components in the Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) signaling cascade, have been reported to interact upon store depletion, culminating in CRAC current activation. We have recently identified a modulatory domain between amino acids 474 and 485 in the cytosolic part of STIM1 that comprises 7 negatively charged residues. A STIM1 C-terminal fragment lacking this domain exhibits enhanced interaction with ORAI1 and 2–3-fold higher ORAI1/CRAC current densities. Here we focused on the role of this CRAC modulatory domain (CMD) in the fast inactivation of ORAI1/CRAC channels, utilizing the whole-cell patch clamp technique. STIM1 mutants either with C-terminal deletions including CMD or with 7 alanines replacing the negative amino acids within CMD gave rise to ORAI1 currents that displayed significantly reduced or even abolished inactivation when compared with STIM1 mutants with preserved CMD. Consistent results were obtained with cytosolic C-terminal fragments of STIM1, both in ORAI1-expressing HEK 293 cells and in RBL-2H3 mast cells containing endogenous CRAC channels. Inactivation of the latter, however, was much more pronounced than that of ORAI1. The extent of inactivation of ORAI3 channels, which is also considerably more prominent than that of ORAI1, was also substantially reduced by co-expression of STIM1 constructs missing CMD. Regarding the dependence of inactivation on Ca2+, a decrease in intracellular Ca2+ chelator concentrations promoted ORAI1 current fast inactivation, whereas Ba2+ substitution for extracellular Ca2+ completely abrogated it. In summary, CMD within the STIM1 cytosolic part provides a negative feedback signal to Ca2+ entry by triggering fast Ca2+-dependent inactivation of ORAI/CRAC channels.The Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC)5 channel is one of the best characterized store-operated entry pathways (1–7). Substantial efforts have led to identification of two key components of the CRAC channel machinery: the stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1), which is located in the endoplasmic reticulum and acts as a Ca2+ sensor (8–10), and ORAI1/CRACM1, the pore-forming subunit of the CRAC channel (11–13). Besides ORAI1, two further homologues named ORAI2 and ORAI3 belong to the ORAI channel family (12, 14).STIM1 senses endoplasmic reticulum store depletion primarily by its luminal EF-hand in its N terminus (8, 15), redistributes close to the plasma membrane, where it forms puncta-like structures, and co-clusters with ORAI1, leading to inward Ca2+ currents (12, 16–19). The STIM1 C terminus, located in the cytosol, contains two coiled-coil regions overlapping with an ezrin-radixin-moesin (ERM)-like domain followed by a serine/proline- and a lysine-rich region (2, 8, 20–22). Three recent studies have described the essential ORAI-activating region within the ERM domain, termed SOAR (Stim ORAI-activating region) (23), OASF (ORAI-activating small fragment) (24), and CAD (CRAC-activating domain) (25), including the second coiled coil domain and the following ∼55 amino acids. We and others have provided evidence that store depletion leads to a dynamic coupling of STIM1 to ORAI1 (26–28) that is mediated by a direct interaction of the STIM1 C terminus with ORAI1 C terminus probably involving the putative coiled-coil domain in the latter (27).Furthermore, different groups have proven that the C terminus of STIM1 is sufficient to activate CRAC as well as ORAI1 channels independent of store depletion (22–25, 27, 29). We have identified that OASF-(233–474) or shorter fragments exhibit further enhanced coupling to ORAI1 resulting in 3-fold increased constitutive Ca2+ currents. A STIM1 fragment containing an additional cluster of anionic amino acids C-terminal to position 474 displays weaker interaction with ORAI1 as well as reduced Ca2+ current comparable with that mediated by wild-type STIM1 C terminus. Hence, we have suggested that these 11 amino acids (474–485) act in a modulatory manner onto ORAI1; however, their detailed mechanistic impact within the STIM1/ORAI1 signaling machinery has remained so far unclear.In this study, we focused on the impact of this negative cluster on fast inactivation of STIM1-mediated ORAI Ca2+ currents. Lis et al. (30) have shown that all three ORAI homologues display distinct inactivation profiles, where ORAI2 and ORAI3 show a much more pronounced fast inactivation than ORAI1. Moreover, it has been reported (31) that different expression levels of STIM1 to ORAI1 affect the properties of CRAC current inactivation. Yamashita et al. (32) have demonstrated a linkage between the selectivity filter of ORAI1 and its Ca2+-dependent fast inactivation. Here we provide evidence that a cluster of acidic residues within the C terminus of STIM1 is involved in the fast inactivation of ORAI1 and further promotes that of ORAI3 and native CRAC currents. 相似文献

The ubiquitous Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channel is crucial to many physiological functions. Both gain and loss of CRAC function is linked to disease. While ORAI1 is a crucial subunit of CRAC channels, recent evidence suggests that ORAI2 and ORAI3 heteromerize with ORAI1 to form native CRAC channels. Furthermore, ORAI2 and ORAI3 can form CRAC channels independently of ORAI1, suggesting diverse native CRAC stoichiometries. Yet, most available CRAC modifiers are presumed to target ORAI1 with little knowledge of their effects on ORAI2/3 or heteromers of ORAIs. Here, we used ORAI1/2/3 triple-null cells to express individual ORAI1, ORAI2, ORAI3 or ORAI1/2/3 concatemers. We reveal that GSK-7975A and BTP2 essentially abrogate ORAI1 and ORAI2 activity while causing only a partial inhibition of ORAI3. Interestingly, Synta66 abrogated ORAI1 channel function, while potentiating ORAI2 with no effect on ORAI3. CRAC channel activities mediated by concatenated ORAI1-1, ORAI1-2 and ORAI1-3 dimers were inhibited by Synta66, while ORAI2-3 dimers were unaffected. The CRAC enhancer IA65 significantly potentiated ORAI1 and ORAI1-1 activity with marginal effects on other ORAIs. Further, we characterized the profiles of individual ORAI isoforms in the presence of Gd3+ (5μM), 2-APB (5 μM and 50 μM), as well as changes in intracellular and extracellular pH. Our data reveal unique pharmacological features of ORAI isoforms expressed in an ORAI-null background and provide new insights into ORAI isoform selectivity of widely used CRAC pharmacological compounds. 相似文献

Store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) is a Ca2+ entry mechanism activated by depletion of intracellular Ca2+ stores. In skeletal muscle, SOCE is mediated by an interaction between stromal-interacting molecule-1 (STIM1), the Ca2+ sensor of the sarcoplasmic reticulum, and ORAI1, the Ca2+-release-activated-Ca2+ (CRAC) channel located in the transverse tubule membrane. This review focuses on the molecular mechanisms and physiological role of SOCE in skeletal muscle, as well as how alterations in STIM1/ORAI1-mediated SOCE contribute to muscle disease. Recent evidence indicates that SOCE plays an important role in both muscle development/growth and fatigue. The importance of SOCE in muscle is further underscored by the discovery that loss- and gain-of-function mutations in STIM1 and ORAI1 result in an eclectic array of disorders with clinical myopathy as central defining component. Despite differences in clinical phenotype, all STIM1/ORAI1 gain-of-function mutations-linked myopathies are characterized by the abnormal accumulation of intracellular membranes, known as tubular aggregates. Finally, dysfunctional STIM1/ORAI1-mediated SOCE also contributes to the pathogenesis of muscular dystrophy, malignant hyperthermia, and sarcopenia. The picture to emerge is that tight regulation of STIM1/ORAI1-dependent Ca2+ signaling is critical for optimal skeletal muscle development/function such that either aberrant increases or decreases in SOCE activity result in muscle dysfunction. 相似文献

Substantial progress has been made in the past several years in establishing the stoichiometries of STIM and Orai proteins and understanding their influence on store-operated calcium entry. Depletion of ER Ca2+ triggers STIM1 to accumulate at ER-plasma membrane junctions where it binds and opens Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channels. STIM1 is a dimer, and release of Ca2+ from its two luminal domains is reported to promote their association as well as drive formation of higher-order STIM1 oligomers. The CRAC channel, originally thought to be tetrameric, is now considered to be a hexamer of Orai1 subunits based on crystallographic and electrophysiological studies. STIM1 binding activates CRAC channels in a highly nonlinear way, such that all six Orai1 binding sites must be occupied to account for the activation and signature properties of native channels. The structural basis of STIM1 engagement with the channel is currently unclear, with evidence suggesting that STIM1 dimers bind to individual or pairs of Orai1 subunits. This review examines evidence that has led to points of consensus and debate about STIM1 and Orai1 stoichiometries, and explains the importance of STIM-Orai complex stoichiometry for the regulation of store-operated calcium entry. 相似文献

Store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) is a widespread mechanism to elevate the intracellular Ca2+ concentrations and stimulate downstream signaling pathways affecting proliferation, secretion, differentiation and death in different cell types. In immune cells, immune receptor stimulation induces intracellular Ca2+ store depletion that subsequently activates Ca2+-release-activated-Ca2+ (CRAC) channels, a prototype of store-operated Ca2+ (SOC) channels. CRAC channel opening leads to activation of diverse downstream signaling pathways affecting proliferation, differentiation, cytokine production and cell death. Recent identification of STIM1 as the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ sensor and Orai1 as the pore subunit of CRAC channels has provided the much-needed molecular tools to dissect the mechanism of activation and regulation of CRAC channels. In this review, we discuss the recent advances in understanding the associating partners and posttranslational modifications of Orai1 and STIM1 proteins that regulate diverse aspects of CRAC channel function. 相似文献

ORAI1 is established as an essential component of Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channel which mediates store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE). However, the contributions of ORAI2 and ORAI3 to SOCE are not understood. We highlight a recent study which shows that ORAI proteins form heteromeric channels which tune SOCE over a range of stimulus intensities. 相似文献

Depletion of Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) lumen triggers the opening of Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channels at the plasma membrane. CRAC channels are activated by stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1), an ER resident protein that senses Ca2+ store depletion and interacts with Orai1, the pore-forming subunit of the channel. The subunit stoichiometry of the CRAC channel is controversial. Here we provide evidence, using atomic force microscopy (AFM) imaging, that Orai1 assembles as a hexamer, and that STIM1 binds to Orai1 with sixfold symmetry. STIM1 associates with Orai1 in the form of monomers, dimers, and multimeric string-like structures that form links between the Orai1 hexamers. Our results provide new insights into the nature of the interactions between STIM1 and Orai1. 相似文献

Ca2+ signals through store-operated Ca2+ (SOC) channels, activated by the depletion of Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum, regulate various physiological events. Orai1 is the pore-forming subunit of the Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channel, the best characterized SOC channel. Orai1 is activated by stromal interaction molecule (STIM) 1, a Ca2+ sensor located in the endoplasmic reticulum. Orai1 and STIM1 are crucial for SOC channel activation, but the molecular mechanisms regulating Orai1 function are not fully understood. In this study, we demonstrate that protein kinase C (PKC) suppresses store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) by phosphorylation of Orai1. PKC inhibitors and knockdown of PKCβ both resulted in increased Ca2+ influx. Orai1 is strongly phosphorylated by PKC in vitro and in vivo at N-terminal Ser-27 and Ser-30 residues. Consistent with these results, substitution of endogenous Orai1 with an Orai1 S27A/S30A mutant resulted in increased SOCE and CRAC channel currents. We propose that PKC suppresses SOCE and CRAC channel function by phosphorylation of Orai1 at N-terminal serine residues Ser-27 and Ser-30. 相似文献

Depletion of intracellular Ca2 + stores in mammalian cells results in Ca2 + entry across the plasma membrane mediated primarily by Ca2 + release-activated Ca2 + (CRAC) channels. Ca2 + influx through these channels is required for the maintenance of homeostasis and Ca2 + signaling in most cell types. One of the main features of native CRAC channels is fast Ca2 +-dependent inactivation (FCDI), where Ca2 + entering through the channel binds to a site near its intracellular mouth and causes a conformational change, closing the channel and limiting further Ca2 + entry. Early studies suggested that FCDI of CRAC channels was mediated by calmodulin. However, since the discovery of STIM1 and Orai1 proteins as the basic molecular components of the CRAC channel, it has become apparent that FCDI is a more complex phenomenon. Data obtained using heterologous overexpression of STIM1 and Orai1 suggest that, in addition to calmodulin, several cytoplasmic domains of STIM1 and Orai1 and the selectivity filter within the channel pore are required for FCDI. The stoichiometry of STIM1 binding to Orai1 also has emerged as an important determinant of FCDI. Consequently, STIM1 protein expression levels have the potential to be an endogenous regulator of CRAC channel Ca2 + influx. This review discusses the current understanding of the molecular mechanisms governing the FCDI of CRAC channels, including an evaluation of further experiments that may delineate whether STIM1 and/or Orai1 protein expression is endogenously regulated to modulate CRAC channel function, or may be dysregulated in some pathophysiological states. 相似文献

Histamine is an important immunomodulator involved in allergic reactions and inflammatory responses. In endothelial cells, histamine induces Ca2+ mobilization by releasing Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum and eliciting Ca2+ entry across the plasma membrane. Herein, we show that histamine-evoked Ca2+ entry in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) is sensitive to blockers of Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channels. RNA interference against STIM1 or Orai1, the activating subunit and the pore-forming subunit of CRAC channels, respectively, abolishes this histamine-evoked Ca2+ entry. Furthermore, overexpression of dominant-negative CRAC channel subunits inhibits while co-expression of both STIM1 and Orai1 enhances histamine-induced Ca2+ influx. Interestingly, gene silencing of STIM1 or Orai1 also interrupts the activation of calcineurin/nuclear factor of activated T-cells (NFAT) pathway and the production of interleukin 8 triggered by histamine in HUVECs. Collectively, these results suggest a central role of STIM1 and Orai1 in mediating Ca2+ mobilization linked to inflammatory signaling of endothelial cells upon histamine stimulation. 相似文献

Store-operated CRAC channels regulate a wide range of cellular functions including gene expression, chemotaxis, and proliferation. CRAC channels consist of two components: the Orai proteins (Orai1-3), which form the ion-selective pore, and STIM proteins (STIM1-2), which form the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca2+ sensors. Activation of CRAC channels is initiated by the migration of STIM1 to the ER-plasma membrane (PM) junctions, where it directly interacts with Orai1 to open the Ca2+-selective pores of the CRAC channels. The recent elucidation of the Drosophila Orai structure revealed a hexameric channel wherein the C-terminal helices of adjacent Orai subunits associate in an anti-parallel orientation. This association is maintained by hydrophobic interactions between the Drosophila equivalents of human Orai1 residues L273 and L276. Here, we used mutagenesis and chemical cross-linking to assess the nature and extent of conformational changes in the self-associated Orai1 C-termini during STIM1 binding. We find that linking the anti-parallel coiled-coils of the adjacent Orai1 C-termini through disulfide cross-links diminishes STIM1-Orai1 interaction, as assessed by FRET. Conversely, prior binding of STIM1 to the Orai1 C-terminus impairs cross-linking of the Orai1 C-termini. Mutational analysis indicated that a bend of the Orai1 helix located upstream of the self-associated coils (formed by the amino acid sequence SHK) establishes an appropriate orientation of the Orai1 C-termini that is required for STIM1 binding. Together, our results support a model wherein the self-associated Orai1 C-termini rearrange modestly to accommodate STIM1 binding. 相似文献
