Ca2(+)-dependent regulation of the spectrin/actin interaction by calmodulin and protein 4.1 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The Ca2(+)-dependent regulation of the erythroid membrane cytoskeleton was investigated. The low-salt extract of erythroid membranes, which is mainly composed of spectrin, protein 4.1, and actin, confers a Ca2+ sensitivity on its interaction with F-actin. This Ca2+ sensitivity is fortified by calmodulin and antagonized by trifluoperazine, a potent calmodulin inhibitor. Additionally, calmodulin is detected in the low-salt extract. These results suggest that calmodulin is the sole Ca2(+)-sensitive factor in the low-salt extract. The main target of calmodulin in the erythroid membrane cytoskeleton was further examined. Under native conditions, calmodulin forms a stable and equivalent complex with protein 4.1 as determined by calmodulin affinity chromatography, cross-linking experiments, and fluorescence binding assays with an apparent Kd of 5.5 x 10(-7) M irrespective of the free Ca2+ concentration. Domain mapping with chymotryptic digestion reveals that the calmodulin-binding site resides within the N-terminal 30-kDa fragment of protein 4.1. In contrast, the interaction of calmodulin with spectrin is unexpectedly weak (Kd = 1.2 x 10(-4) M). Given the content of calmodulin in erythrocytes (2-5 microM), these results imply that the major target for calmodulin in the erythroid membrane cytoskeleton is protein 4.1. Low- and high-shear viscometry and binding assays reveal that an equivalent complex of calmodulin with protein 4.1 regulates the spectrin/actin interaction in a Ca2(+)-dependent manner. At a low Ca2+ concentration, protein 4.1 potentiates the actin cross-linking and the actin binding activities of spectrin. At a high Ca2+ concentration, the protein 4.1-potentiated actin cross-linking activity but not the actin binding activity of spectrin is suppressed by Ca2+/calmodulin. The Ca2(+)-dependent regulation of the spectrin/protein 4.1/calmodulin/actin interaction is discussed. 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

Calmodulin derivatives, specifically biotinylated in domains I and III, were synthesized to address the structures of calmodulin necessary for binding to its target enzymes in active conformations. By binding avidin to these biotinylated calmodulins, the role of specific sequences of the calmodulin molecule in target enzyme interactions could then be evaluated. The role of domain I in these interactions was assessed by biotinylation of Cys-27 of wheat germ calmodulin with N-ethylmaleimidobiotin. This modification did not affect the ability of this calmodulin to activate 3'-5'-cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (PDE) or human erythrocyte Ca2+-Mg2+ ATPase. The addition of avidin to form a stable calmodulin-avidin complex also did not affect activation. Bovine testes calmodulin was biotinylated on Lys-94 by calcium-dependent reaction with N-hydroxysuccinimido ester-biotin at pH 6.0. This derivative was used to probe the Ca+2 binding region of domain III. The incorporation of biotin at Lys-94 of bovine calmodulin did not affect calmodulin activation of PDE. However, compared to unmodified calmodulin, a 4-fold higher concentration of this derivative was required to fully activate the ATPase. The addition of excess avidin to this derivative abolished all activation for both PDE and the ATPase. Sites of modification were determined by sequence analysis of labeled peptides. 相似文献

Ca(2+)-activated calmodulin (CaM) regulates many target enzymes by docking to an amphiphilic target helix of variable sequence. This study compares the equilibrium Ca2+ binding and Ca2+ dissociation kinetics of CaM complexed to target peptides derived from five different CaM-regulated proteins: phosphorylase kinase. CaM-dependent protein kinase II, skeletal and smooth myosin light chain kinases, and the plasma membrane Ca(2+)-ATPase. The results reveal that different target peptides can tune the Ca2+ binding affinities and kinetics of the two CaM domains over a wide range of Ca2+ concentrations and time scales. The five peptides increase the Ca2+ affinity of the N-terminal regulatory domain from 14- to 350-fold and slow its Ca2+ dissociation kinetics from 60- to 140-fold. Smaller effects are observed for the C-terminal domain, where peptides increase the apparent Ca2+ affinity 8- to 100-fold and slow dissociation kinetics 13- to 132-fold. In full-length skeletal myosin light chain kinase the inter-molecular tuning provided by the isolated target peptide is further modulated by other tuning interactions, resulting in a CaM-protein complex that has a 10-fold lower Ca2+ affinity than the analogous CaM-peptide complex. Unlike the CaM-peptide complexes, Ca2+ dissociation from the protein complex follows monoexponential kinetics in which all four Ca2+ ions dissociate at a rate comparable to the slow rate observed in the peptide complex. The two Ca2+ ions bound to the CaM N-terminal domain are substantially occluded in the CaM-protein complex. Overall, the results indicate that the cellular activation of myosin light chain kinase is likely to be triggered by the binding of free Ca2(2+)-CaM or Ca4(2+)-CaM after a Ca2+ signal has begun and that inactivation of the complex is initiated by a single rate-limiting event, which is proposed to be either the direct dissociation of Ca2+ ions from the bound C-terminal domain or the dissociation of Ca2+ loaded C-terminal domain from skMLCK. The observed target-induced variations in Ca2+ affinities and dissociation rates could serve to tune CaM activation and inactivation for different cellular pathways, and also must counterbalance the variable energetic costs of driving the activating conformational change in different target enzymes. 相似文献

113Cd-NMR evidence for cooperative interaction between amino- and carboxyl-terminal domains of calmodulin 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

113Cd-NMR experiments were performed to characterize the nature of Cd2+ binding to calmodulin in the presence of a tetradecapeptide mastoparan or a 26-residue peptide M13 (calmodulin-binding region of skeletal muscle myosin light-chain kinase). The results indicate that binding of these peptides to calmodulin induces a positive cooperativity between Ca2+ binding to C- and N-terminal domains. The results imply that the activation of myosin light-chain kinase caused by the increase in Ca2+ concentration occurs as a result of cooperative interactions not only between two Ca2+ binding sites in each domain but also between the two domains. The interdomain interaction manifests itself only in the presence of such peptides. 相似文献

A Ca2(+)-pumping ATPase has been characterized in rat hepatocyte plasma membranes. The enzyme has high Ca2+ affinity, and properties typical of a P-type ion pump. At variance with the Ca2+ pumps of other eukaryotic plasma membranes, it is not stimulated by calmodulin. The steady state concentration of the phosphoenzyme formed in the presence of ATP is increased by La3+. The enzyme cross-reacts with a monoclonal antibody (mAb-5F10) raised against the human erythrocyte Ca2+ pump. The enzyme has been purified using a mAb-5F10 antibody affinity column. CNBr digestion of the isolated protein has yielded two peptides which have been sequenced. One of them matches perfectly a sequence contained in the erythrocyte Ca2+ pump, the other is very homologous to another domain in the erythrocyte pump. In spite of the absence of calmodulin stimulation, 125I-calmodulin overlay experiments on the purified liver ATPase under denaturing conditions have revealed that the enzyme binds calmodulin even more strongly than the erythrocyte pump. Immunocytochemical experiments on liver slices using the mAb-5F10 antibody have shown that the enzyme is located predominantly in the blood sinusoidal domain of the hepatocyte plasma membrane. 相似文献

We demonstrate in this report that the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor from rat liver can be isolated by calmodulin affinity chromatography by binding in the presence of Ca2+ and elution with a Ca(2+)-chelating agent. The bulk of the EGF receptor is not eluted by a NaCl gradient in the presence of Ca2+. We ascertained the identity of the isolated receptor by immunoblot and immunoprecipitation using a polyclonal antibody against an EGF receptor from human origin. The purified receptor is autophosphorylated in tyrosine residues in an EGF-stimulated manner, and EGF-dependent phosphorylation of serine residues was also detected. Both the EGF and the transforming growth factor-alpha stimulate the tyrosine-directed protein kinase activity of the isolated receptor with similar affinities. Furthermore, we demonstrate that calmodulin inhibits the EGF-dependent tyrosine-directed protein kinase activity associated to the receptor in a concentration-dependent manner. This inhibition is partially Ca2+ dependent and is not displaced by increasing the concentration of EGF up to an EGF/calmodulin ratio of 10 (mol/mol). In addition, calmodulin was phosphorylated in an EGF-stimulated manner in the presence of a basic protein (histone) as cofactor and in the absence, but not in the presence, of Ca2+. 相似文献

Role of third extracellular domain of plasma membrane Ca2+-Mg2+-ATPase based on the novel inhibitor caloxin 3A1 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The plasma membrane Ca2+ pump (PMCA) is a Ca2+-Mg2+-ATPase that expels Ca2+ from cells to help them maintain low concentrations of cytosolic Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i). It contains five putative extracellular domains (PEDs). Earlier we had reported that binding to PED2 leads to PMCA inhibition. Mutagenesis of residues in transmembrane domain 6 leads to loss of PMCA activity. PED3 connects transmembrane domains 5 and 6. PED3 is only five amino acid residues long. By screening a phage display library, we obtained a peptide sequence that binds this target. After examining a number of peptides related to this original sequence, we selected one that inhibits the PMCA pump (caloxin 3A1). Caloxin 3A1 inhibits PMCA but not the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-pump. Caloxin 3A1 did not inhibit formation of the 140 kDa acylphosphate intermediate from ATP or its degradation. Thus, PEDs play a role in the reaction cycle of PMCA even though sites for binding to the substrates Ca2+ and Mg-ATP2-, and the activator calmodulin are all in the cytosolic domains of PMCA. In endothelial cells exposed to low concentration of a Ca2+-ionophore, caloxin 3A1 caused a further increase in [Ca2+]i proving its ability to inhibit PMCA pump extracellularly. Thus, even though PED3 is the shortest PED, it plays key role in the PMCA function. 相似文献

Ca2+-dependent regulation of calmodulin binding and adenylate cyclase activation in bovine cerebellar membranes 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The binding parameters of 125I-labeled calmodulin to bovine cerebellar membranes have been determined and correlated with the activation of adenylate cyclase by calmodulin. In the presence of saturating levels of free Ca2+ calmodulin binds to a finite number of specific membrane sites with a dissociation constant (Kd) of 1.2 nM. Furthermore, Scatchard analysis reveals a second population of binding sites with a 100-fold lower affinity for calmodulin. The Ca2+-dependence of calmodulin binding and of adenylate cyclase activation varies with the amount of calmodulin present, as can be inferred from the model of sequential equilibrium reactions which describes the activation of calmodulin-dependent enzymes. On the basis of this model, a quantitative analysis of the effect of free Ca2+ and of free calmodulin concentration on both binding and activation of adenylate cyclase was carried out. This analysis shows that both processes take place only when calmodulin is complexed with at least three Ca2+ atoms. The concentration of the active calmodulin X Ca2+ species required for half-maximal activation of adenylate cyclase is very similar to the Kd of the high affinity binding sites on brain membranes. A Hill coefficient of approx. 1 was found for both processes indicating an absence of cooperativity. Phenothiazines and thioxanthenes antipsychotic agents inhibit calmodulin binding to membranes and calmodulin-dependent activation of adenylate cyclase with a similar order of potency. These results suggest that the Ca2+-dependent binding of calmodulin to specific high affinity sites on brain membranes regulates the activation of adenylate cyclase by calmodulin. 相似文献

Calmodulin, bound to the alpha(1) subunit of the cardiac L-type calcium channel, is required for calcium-dependent inactivation of this channel. Several laboratories have suggested that the site of interaction of calmodulin with the channel is an IQ-like motif in the carboxyl-terminal region of the alpha(1) subunit. Mutations in this IQ motif are linked to L-type Ca(2+) current (I(Ca)) facilitation and inactivation. IQ peptides from L, P/Q, N, and R channels all bind Ca(2+)calmodulin but not Ca(2+)-free calmodulin. Another peptide representing a carboxyl-terminal sequence found only in L-type channels (designated the CB domain) binds Ca(2+)calmodulin and enhances Ca(2+)-dependent I(Ca) facilitation in cardiac myocytes, suggesting the CB domain is functionally important. Calmodulin blocks the binding of an antibody specific for the CB sequence to the skeletal muscle L-type Ca(2+) channel, suggesting that this is a calmodulin binding site on the intact protein. The binding of the IQ and CB peptides to calmodulin appears to be competitive, signifying that the two sequences represent either independent or alternative binding sites for calmodulin rather than both sequences contributing to a single binding site. 相似文献

Communication between two globular domains of calmodulin in the presence of mastoparan or caldesmon fragment. Ca2+ binding and 1H NMR 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Ca2+ binding to calmodulin was measured in the presence of mastoparan or caldesmon fragment. Mastoparan and caldesmon fragment were used as model compounds of enzymes and cytoskeleton proteins, respectively, working as the target of calmodulin. Although the Ca2+ bindings of the two globular domains of calmodulin occur independently in the absence of the target peptide (or proteins), mastoparan and caldesmon fragment increased the affinity of Ca2+ and, at the same time, produced the positive cooperative Ca2+ bindings between the two domains. The result of Ca2+ binding was compared with 1H NMR spectra of calmodulin in the presence of equimolar concentration of mastoparan. It is known that a conformation change of the C-terminal half-region (C-domain) occurs by the Ca2+ binding to C-domain. A further change in conformation of C-domain was demonstrated by the Ca2+ binding to the N-terminal half-region (N-domain) in the presence of mastoparan. It indicates that the two domains of calmodulin get into communication with each other in the associated state with the target, and we concluded that the Ca2+ binding to the N-domain is responsive to the development of calmodulin function. 相似文献

In the presence of Ca2+ and glucose, calmodulin incorporates 2.5 mol of glucose/mol of protein. In the absence of Ca2+, only 1.5 mol of glucose is incorporated per mole of calmodulin. Glycation of calmodulin is associated with variable reductions in its capacity to activate three Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent brain target enzyme systems, including adenylyl cyclase, phosphodiesterase, and protein kinase. In addition, glycated calmodulin exhibits a 54% reduction in its Ca2+ binding capacity. Isolated CNBr cleavage fragments of glycated calmodulin suggest that glycation follows a nonspecific pattern in that each of seven available lysines is susceptible to modification. A limit observed on the extent of glycation appears related to the accompanying increase in negative charge on the protein. Glycation results in minimal structural rearrangements in calmodulin, and the Ca2+-induced increase in alpha-helix content and radius of gyration is the same for glycated and unmodified calmodulin. Since glycated calmodulin's Ca2+ binding capacity is reduced, this implies that the Ca2+-induced conformational changes in calmodulin do not require all four Ca2+ binding sites to be occupied. Examination of the lysine positions in calmodulin suggests that Ca2+ binding to domains II and IV is sufficient to induce these changes. The functional consequences of calmodulin glycation therefore cannot be attributed to inhibition of these conformational changes. An alternative explanation is that the inhibition arises from interference at the target enzyme binding site by bound glucose. While glycation shows minimal structural effects, a large pH dependence is observed for the alpha-helix content of unmodified calmodulin.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Functional properties of covalent beta-endorphin peptide/calmodulin complexes. Chlorpromazine binding and phosphodiesterase activation 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The 31-residue neuropeptide porcine beta-endorphin was shown to inhibit the Ca2+-dependent calmodulin activation of highly purified bovine brain cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (3',5'-cyclic AMP 5'-nucleotidohydrolase, EC 3.1.4.17). Using a series of deletion peptides, the minimal inhibitory peptide sequence was found to correspond to beta-endorphin residues 14-25, confirming previously reported results for crude enzyme preparations. A correlation was found between the relative inhibitory potency of a particular beta-endorphin deletion peptide and the efficacy of cross-linking that peptide to calmodulin with bis(sulfosuccinimidyl) suberate, strongly implicating peptide binding to calmodulin as the mechanism of the observed inhibition. We found that relatively modest concentrations of chlorpromazine significantly reduced the efficiency of cross-linking beta-endorphin 14-31 to calmodulin. Chlorpromazine-Sepharose affinity chromatography of peptide/calmodulin adducts showed that a significant portion of the cross-linked beta-endorphin 14-31/calmodulin complex (stoichiometry of 1 mol/mol) retained the ability to interact with the immobilized phenothiazine in a Ca2+-dependent and calmodulin-displaceable manner. In contrast, the 2:1 (peptide:protein) product exhibited no affinity for the immobilized phenothiazine. The use of this affinity chromatographic step allowed preparation of homogeneous populations of both 1:1 and 2:1 beta-endorphin 13-31/calmodulin complexes and assessment of their functional characteristics. Equilibrium binding studies with chlorpromazine revealed that the covalent attachment of one peptide molecule to calmodulin perturbed all phases of Ca2+-dependent drug binding, but the adduct still bound significant quantities of chlorpromazine. The 2:1 complex, however, showed little detectable binding of the phenothiazine.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

A mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody has been generated against the soluble form of the calmodulin-dependent protein kinase type II. This antibody recognizes both the soluble and cytoskeletal forms of the enzyme, requiring Ca2+ (EC50 = 20 microM) for the interaction. Other divalent cations such as Zn2+, Mn2+, Cd2+, Co2+, and Ni2+ will substitute for Ca2+, while Mg2+ and Ba2+ will not. The antibody reacts with both the alpha- and beta-subunits on Western blots in a similar Ca2+-dependent fashion but with a lower sensitivity. The affinity of the antibody for the kinase is 0.13 nM determined by displacement of 125I Bolton-Hunter-labeled kinase with unlabeled enzyme. A variety of other proteins including tubulin do not compete for antibody binding. The Mr 30,000 catalytic fragment obtained by proteolysis of either the soluble or the cytoskeletal form of the kinase fails to react with the antibody. Calmodulin and antibody reciprocally potentiate each other's interaction with the enzyme. This is illustrated both by direct binding studies and by a decrease of the Kmapp for calmodulin and an increase in the Vmax for the autophosphorylation reaction of the enzyme. The antibody thus appears to recognize and stabilize a conformation of the kinase which favors calmodulin binding although it does not itself activate the kinase in the absence of calmodulin. Since the Mr 30,000 catalytic fragment of the kinase is not immunoreactive, either the antibody combining site of the kinase must be present in the noncatalytic portion of the protein along with the calmodulin binding site or proteolysis interferes with the putative Ca2+-dependent conformational change.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

To characterize the dynamic behavior of calmodulin in solution, we have carried out molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of the Ca2+-loaded structure. The crystal structure of calmodulin was placed in a solvent sphere of radius 44 A, and 6 Cl- and 22 Na+ ions were included to neutralize the system and to model a 150 mM salt concentration. The total number of atoms was 32,867. During the 3-ns simulation, the structure exhibits large conformational changes on the nanosecond time scale. The central alpha-helix, which has been shown to unwind locally upon binding of calmodulin to target proteins, bends and unwinds near residue Arg74. We interpret this result as a preparative step in the more extensive structural transition observed in the "flexible linker" region 74-82 of the central helix upon complex formation. The major structural change is a reorientation of the two Ca2+-binding domains with respect to each other and a rearrangement of alpha-helices in the N-terminus domain that makes the hydrophobic target peptide binding site more accessible. This structural rearrangement brings the domains to a more favorable position for target binding, poised to achieve the orientation observed in the complex of calmodulin with myosin light-chain kinase. Analysis of solvent structure reveals an inhomogeneity in the mobility of water in the vicinity of the protein, which is attributable to the hydrophobic effect exerted by calmodulin's binding sites for target peptides. 相似文献

The activation of six target enzymes by calmodulin phosphorylated on Tyr99 (PCaM) and the binding affinities of their respective calmodulin binding domains were tested. The six enzymes were: myosin light chain kinase (MLCK), 3'-5'-cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (PDE), plasma membrane (PM) Ca2+-ATPase, Ca2+-CaM dependent protein phosphatase 2B (calcineurin), neuronal nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and type II Ca2+-calmodulin dependent protein kinase (CaM kinase II). In general, tyrosine phosphorylation led to an increase in the activatory properties of calmodulin (CaM). For plasma membrane (PM) Ca2+-ATPase, PDE and CaM kinase II, the primary effect was a decrease in the concentration at which half maximal velocity was attained (Kact). In contrast, for calcineurin and NOS phosphorylation of CaM significantly increased the Vmax. For MLCK, however, neither Vmax nor Kact were affected by tyrosine phosphorylation. Direct determination by fluorescence techniques of the dissociation constants with synthetic peptides corresponding to the CaM-binding domain of the six analysed enzymes revealed that phosphorylation of Tyr99 on CaM generally increased its affinity for the peptides. 相似文献

Recognition of osteopontin and related peptides by an alpha v beta 3 integrin stimulates immediate cell signals in osteoclasts 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15
A Miyauchi J Alvarez E M Greenfield A Teti M Grano S Colucci A Zambonin-Zallone F P Ross S L Teitelbaum D Cheresh 《The Journal of biological chemistry》1991,266(30):20369-20374
We have investigated the nature of immediate cell signals produced by occupancy of the chicken osteoclast alpha v beta 3 integrin. Synthetic osteopontin and peptides from the osteopontin and bone sialoprotein sequences containing Arg-Gly-Asp stimulated immediate reductions in osteoclast cytosolic Ca2+. The changes in cytosolic Ca2+ required the Arg-Gly-Asp sequence and were blocked by a monoclonal antibody to the alpha v beta 3 integrin, LM609. Osteoclast stimulation by the proteins through the integrin did not require immobilization since soluble peptides produced changes in cytosolic Ca2+ and inhibited osteoclast binding to bone particles and bone resorption. The decrease in cytosolic Ca2+ stimulated by osteopontin and related peptides appeared to be due to activation of a plasma membrane Ca(2+)-ATPase by calmodulin. Thus, the data suggest that ligand binding to the osteoclast alpha v beta 3 integrin results in calmodulin-dependent reduction in cytosolic Ca2+ which participates in regulation of osteoclast function. 相似文献

Mg2+ binds to calmodulin without inducing the changes in secondary structure that are characteristic of Ca2+ binding, or the exposure of hydrophobic surfaces that are involved in typical Ca2+-dependent target interactions. The binding of Mg2+ does, however, produce significant spectroscopic changes in residues located in the Ca2+-binding loops, and the Mg-calmodulin complex is significantly different from apo-calmodulin in loop conformation. Direct measurement of Mg2+ binding constants, and the effects of Mg2+ on Ca2+ binding to calmodulin, are consistent with specific binding of Mg2+, in competition with Ca2+. Mg2+ increases the thermodynamic stability of calmodulin, and we conclude that under resting, nonstimulated conditions, cellular Mg2+ has a direct role in conferring stability on both domains of apo-calmodulin. Apo-calmodulin binds typical target sequences from skeletal muscle myosin light chain kinase and neuromodulin with Kd approximately 70-90 nM (at low ionic strength). These affinities are virtually unchanged by 5 mM Mg2+, in marked contrast to the strong enhancement of peptide affinity induced by Ca2+. Under conditions of stimulation and increased [Ca2+], Mg2+ has a role in directing the mode of initial target binding preferentially to the C-domain of calmodulin, due to the opposite relative affinities for binding of Ca2+ and Mg2+ to the two domains. Mg2+ thus amplifies the intrinsic differences of the domains, in a target specific manner. It also contributes to setting the Ca2+ threshold for enzyme activation and increases the importance of a partially Ca2+-saturated calmodulin-target complex that can act as a regulatory kinetic and equilibrium intermediate in Ca2+-dependent target interactions. 相似文献

Plants express numerous calmodulin (CaM) isoforms that exhibit differential activation or inhibition of CaM-dependent enzymes in vitro; however, their specificities toward target enzyme/protein binding are uncertain. A random peptide library displaying a 22-mer peptide on a bacteriophage surface was constructed to screen peptides that specifically bind to plant CaM isoforms (soybean calmodulin (ScaM)-1 and SCaM-4 were used in this study) in a Ca2+-dependent manner. The deduced amino acid sequence analyses of the respective 80 phage clones that were independently isolated via affinity panning revealed that SCaM isoforms require distinct amino acid sequences for optimal binding. SCaM-1-binding peptides conform to a 1-5-10 ((FILVW)XXX(FILV) XXXX(FILVW)) motif (where X denotes any amino acid), whereas SCaM-4-binding peptide sequences conform to a 1-8-14 ((FILVW)XXXXXX(FAILVW)XXXXX(FILVW)) motif. These motifs are classified based on the positions of conserved hydrophobic residues. To examine their binding properties further, two representative peptides from each of the SCaM isoform-binding sequences were synthesized and analyzed via gel mobility shift assays, Trp fluorescent spectra analyses, and phosphodiesterase competitive inhibition experiments. The results of these studies suggest that SCaM isoforms possess different binding sequences for optimal target interaction, which therefore may provide a molecular basis for CaM isoform-specific function in plants. Furthermore, the isolated peptide sequences may serve not only as useful CaM-binding sequence references but also as potential reagents for studying CaM isoform-specific function in vivo. 相似文献

Calcium-dependent nitric oxide synthesis in endothelial cytosol is mediated by calmodulin. 总被引:25,自引:0,他引:25
We investigated whether calmodulin mediates the stimulating effect of Ca2+ on nitric oxide synthase in the cytosol of porcine aortic endothelial cells. Nitric oxide was quantified by activation of a purified soluble guanylate cyclase. The Ca2(+)-sensitivity of nitric oxide synthase was lost after anion exchange chromatography of the endothelial cytosol and could only be reconstituted by addition of calmodulin or heat-denatured endothelial cytosol. The Ca2(+)-dependent activation of nitric oxide synthase in the cytosol was inhibited by the calmodulin-binding peptides/proteins melittin, mastoparan, and calcineurin (IC50 450, 350 and 60 nM, respectively), but not by the calmodulin antagonist, calmidazolium. In contrast, Ca2(+)-calmodulin-reconstituted nitric oxide synthase was inhibited with similar potency by melittin and calmidazolium. The results suggest that the Ca2(+)-dependent activation of nitric oxide synthase in endothelial cells is mediated by calmodulin. 相似文献
