Capacitative Ca2+ entry via Orai1 and stromal interacting molecule 1 (STIM1) regulates adenylyl cyclase type 8.

ABSTRACT: Capacitative Ca(2+) entry (CCE), which occurs through the plasma membrane as a result of Ca(2+) store depletion, is mediated by stromal interacting molecule 1 (STIM1), a sensor of intracellular Ca(2+) store content, and the pore-forming component Orai1. However, additional factors, such as C-type transient receptor potential (TRPC) channels, may also participate in the CCE apparatus. To explore whether the store-dependent Ca(2+) entry reconstituted by coexpression of Orai1 and STIM1 has the functional properties of CCE, we used the Ca(2+)-calmodulin stimulated adenylyl cyclase type 8 (AC8), which responds selectively to CCE, whereas other modes of Ca(2+) entry, including those activated by arachidonate and the ionophore ionomycin, are ineffective. In addition, the Ca(2+) entry mediated by previous CCE candidates, diacylglycerol-activated TRPC channels, does not activate AC8. Here, we expressed Orai1 and STIM1 in HEK293 cells and saw a robust increment in CCE, and a proportional increase in CCE-stimulated AC8 activity. Inhibitors of the CCE assembly process ablated the effects on cyclase activity in both AC8-overexpressing HEK293 cells and insulin-secreting MIN6 cells endogenously expressing Ca(2+)-sensitive AC isoforms. AC8 is believed to be closely associated with the source of CCE; indeed, not only were AC8, Orai1, and STIM1 colocalized at the plasma membrane but also all three proteins occurred in lipid rafts. Together, our data indicate that Orai1 and STIM1 can be integral components of the cAMP and CCE microdomain associated with adenylyl cyclase type 8.

Junctate is a Ca2+-sensing structural component of Orai1 and stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1).

Project description:Orai1 and stromal interaction molecule (STIM)1 are critical components of Ca(2+) release-activated Ca(2+) (CRAC) channels. Orai1 is a pore subunit of CRAC channels, and STIM1 acts as an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca(2+) sensor that detects store depletion. Upon store depletion after T-cell receptor stimulation, STIM1 translocates and coclusters with Orai1 at sites of close apposition of the plasma membrane (PM) and the ER membrane. However, the molecular components of these ER-PM junctions remain poorly understood. Using affinity protein purification, we uncovered junctate as an interacting partner of Orai1-STIM1 complex. Furthermore, we identified a Ca(2+)-binding EF-hand motif in the ER-luminal region of junctate. Mutation of this EF-hand domain of junctate impaired its Ca(2+) binding and resulted in partial activation of CRAC channels and clustering of STIM1 independently of store depletion. In addition to the known mechanisms of STIM1 clustering (i.e., phosphoinositide and Orai1 binding), our study identifies an alternate mechanism to recruit STIM1 into the ER-PM junctions via binding to junctate. We propose that junctate, a Ca(2+)-sensing ER protein, is a structural component of the ER-PM junctions where Orai1 and STIM1 cluster and interact in T cells.

Modulation of STIM1 and capacitative Ca2+ entry by the endoplasmic reticulum luminal oxidoreductase ERp57.

Project description:STIM1 is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane Ca(2+) sensor responsible for activation of store-operated Ca(2+) influx. We discovered that STIM1 oligomerization and store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOC) are modulated by the ER oxidoreductase ERp57. ERp57 interacts with the ER luminal domain of STIM1, with this interaction involving two conserved cysteine residues, C(49) and C(56). SOC is accelerated in the absence of ERp57 and inhibited in C(49) and C(56) mutants of STIM1. We show that ERp57, by ER luminal interaction with STIM1, has a modulatory role in capacitative Ca(2+) entry. This is the first demonstration of a protein involved in ER intraluminal regulation of STIM1.

Differential roles of the C and N termini of Orai1 protein in interacting with stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) for Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channel activation.

Project description:The entry of extracellular Ca(2+), which is mediated by Ca(2+) release-activated Ca(2+) (CRAC) channels, is essential for T cell activation and the normal functioning of other immune cells. Although the molecular components of CRAC channels, the Orai1 pore-forming subunit and the STIM1-activating subunit have been recently identified, the gating mechanism by which Orai1 channels conduct Ca(2+) entry upon Orai1-STIM1 interaction following Ca(2+) store release remains elusive. Herein, we show that C-terminal truncations or point mutations prevented Orai1 from binding to STIM1 and subsequent channel opening. In contrast, an Orai1 mutant with an N-terminal truncation interacted with but failed to be activated by STIM1. Moreover, Orai1 channels with C-terminal disruption, but not N-terminal truncation, could be gated by fused functional domains of STIM1. Interestingly, the channel activities of Orai1 mutants carrying either an N-terminal or a C-terminal truncation were restored by a methionine mutation at the putative gating hinge, the conserved Gly-98 site in the first transmembrane segment (TM1) of Orai1. Collectively, these results support a stepwise gating mechanism of STIM1-operated Orai1 channels; the initial binding between STIM1 and the C terminus of Orai1 docks STIM1 onto the N terminus of Orai1 to initiate conformational changes of the pore-lining TM1 helix of Orai1, leading to the opening of the channel.

STIM1 controls endothelial barrier function independently of Orai1 and Ca2+ entry.

Project description:Endothelial barrier function is critical for tissue fluid homeostasis, and its disruption contributes to various pathologies, including inflammation and sepsis. Thrombin is an endogenous agonist that impairs endothelial barrier function. We showed that the thrombin-induced decrease in transendothelial electric resistance of cultured human endothelial cells required the endoplasmic reticulum-localized, calcium-sensing protein stromal interacting molecule 1 (STIM1), but was independent of Ca2+ entry across the plasma membrane and the Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ channel protein Orai1, which is the target of STIM1 in the store-operated calcium entry pathway. We found that STIM1 coupled the thrombin receptor to activation of the guanosine triphosphatase RhoA, stimulation of myosin light chain phosphorylation, formation of actin stress fibers, and loss of cell-cell adhesion. Thus, STIM1 functions in pathways that are dependent on and independent of Ca2+ entry.

Nanoscale patterning of STIM1 and Orai1 during store-operated Ca2+ entry.

Project description:Stromal interacting molecule (STIM) and Orai proteins constitute the core machinery of store-operated calcium entry. We used transmission and freeze-fracture electron microscopy to visualize STIM1 and Orai1 at endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-plasma membrane (PM) junctions in HEK 293 cells. Compared with control cells, thin sections of STIM1-transfected cells possessed far more ER elements, which took the form of complex stackable cisternae and labyrinthine structures adjoining the PM at junctional couplings (JCs). JC formation required STIM1 expression but not store depletion, induced here by thapsigargin (TG). Extended molecules, indicative of STIM1, decorated the cytoplasmic surface of ER, bridged a 12-nm ER-PM gap, and showed clear rearrangement into small clusters following TG treatment. Freeze-fracture replicas of the PM of Orai1-transfected cells showed extensive domains packed with characteristic "particles"; TG treatment led to aggregation of these particles into sharply delimited "puncta" positioned upon raised membrane subdomains. The size and spacing of Orai1 channels were consistent with the Orai crystal structure, and stoichiometry was unchanged by store depletion, coexpression with STIM1, or an Orai1 mutation (L273D) affecting STIM1 association. Although the arrangement of Orai1 channels in puncta was substantially unstructured, a portion of channels were spaced at ∼15 nm. Monte Carlo analysis supported a nonrandom distribution for a portion of channels spaced at ∼15 nm. These images offer dramatic, direct views of STIM1 aggregation and Orai1 clustering in store-depleted cells and provide evidence for the interaction of a single Orai1 channel with small clusters of STIM1 molecules.

Role of STIM1- and Orai1-mediated Ca2+ entry in Ca2+-induced epidermal keratinocyte differentiation.

Project description:The uppermost thin layer on the surface of the skin, called the epidermis, is responsible for the barrier function of the skin. The epidermis has a multilayered structure in which each layer consists of keratinocytes (KCs) of different differentiation status. The integrity of KC differentiation is crucial for the function of skin and its loss causes or is accompanied by skin diseases. Intracellular and extracellular Ca(2+) is known to play important roles in KC differentiation. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying Ca(2+) regulation of KC differentiation are still largely unknown. Store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOCE) is a major Ca(2+) influx pathway in most non-excitable cells. SOCE is evoked in response to a fall in Ca(2+) concentration in the endoplasmic reticulum. Two proteins have been identified as essential components of SOCE: STIM1, a Ca(2+) sensor in the ER, and Orai1, a subunit of Ca(2+) channels in the plasma membrane. In this study, we analyzed the contribution of SOCE to KC growth and differentiation using RNAi knockdown of STIM1 and Orai1 in the human keratinocyte cell line, HaCaT. KC differentiation was induced by a switch in extracellular Ca(2+) concentration from low (0.03 mM; undifferentiated KCs) to high (1.8 mM; differentiated KCs). This Ca(2+) switch triggers phospholipase-C-mediated intracellular Ca(2+) signals (Ca(2+)-switch-induced Ca(2+) response), which would probably involve the activation of SOCE. Knockdown of either STIM1 or Orai1 strongly suppressed SOCE and almost completely abolished the Ca(2+)-switch-induced Ca(2+) responses, resulting in impaired expression of keratin1, an early KC differentiation marker. Furthermore, loss of either STIM1 or Orai1 suppressed normal growth of HaCaT cells in low Ca(2+) and inhibited the growth arrest in response to a Ca(2+) switch. These results demonstrate that SOCE plays multiple crucial roles in KC differentiation and function.

STIM1 activation of adenylyl cyclase 6 connects Ca2+ and cAMP signaling during melanogenesis.

Project description:Endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-plasma membrane (PM) junctions form functionally active microdomains that connect intracellular and extracellular environments. While the key role of these interfaces in maintenance of intracellular Ca2+ levels has been uncovered in recent years, the functional significance of ER-PM junctions in non-excitable cells has remained unclear. Here, we show that the ER calcium sensor protein STIM1 (stromal interaction molecule 1) interacts with the plasma membrane-localized adenylyl cyclase 6 (ADCY6) to govern melanogenesis. The physiological stimulus α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (αMSH) depletes ER Ca2+ stores, thus recruiting STIM1 to ER-PM junctions, which in turn activates ADCY6. Using zebrafish as a model system, we further established STIM1's significance in regulating pigmentation in vivo STIM1 domain deletion studies reveal the importance of Ser/Pro-rich C-terminal region in this interaction. This mechanism of cAMP generation creates a positive feedback loop, controlling the output of the classical αMSH-cAMP-MITF axis in melanocytes. Our study thus delineates a signaling module that couples two fundamental secondary messengers to drive pigmentation. Given the central role of calcium and cAMP signaling pathways, this module may be operative during various other physiological processes and pathological conditions.

Capacitative Ca2+ entry regulates Ca(2+)-sensitive adenylyl cyclases.

Project description:A number of the currently described adenylyl cyclase species can be regulated by Ca2+ in the submicromolar concentration range in in vitro assays. The regulatory significance of these observations hinges on whether a physiological elevation in intracellular Ca2+ can regulate these cyclase activities in intact cells. However, achieving a physiological elevation in cytosolic Ca2+ is complicated by the fact that hormonal increases in cytosolic Ca2+ can be accompanied by additional effects, such as liberation of beta gamma-subunits of G-proteins and activation of protein kinase C, which can have disparate type-specific effects on cyclase activities. Therefore we have devised a strategy based on capacitative Ca2+ entry to show that, when types I and VI adenylyl cyclase are expressed in human embryonic kidney 293 cells, they are stimulated and inhibited respectively by Ca2+ entry. Blockade of Ca2+ entry by La3+ ions blocks the effects of Ca2+ entry on cyclic AMP synthesis. These studies establish that adenylyl cyclases deemed to be sensitive to Ca2+ in in vitro assays can be regulated by physiological Ca2+ entry, and therefore, such cyclases are poised to respond to changes in intracellular Ca2+ in tissues in which they are expressed.

Insights into the residence in lipid rafts of adenylyl cyclase AC8 and its regulation by capacitative calcium entry.

Project description:Adenylyl cyclases (ACs) are a family of critically important signaling molecules that are regulated by multiple pathways. Adenylyl cyclase 8 (AC8) is a Ca(2+) stimulated isoform that displays a selective regulation by capacitative Ca(2+) entry (CCE), the process whereby the entry of Ca(2+) into cells is triggered by the emptying of intracellular stores. This selectivity was believed to be achieved through the localization of AC8 in lipid raft microdomains, along with components of the CCE apparatus. In the present study, we show that an intact leucine zipper motif is required for the efficient N-linked glycosylation of AC8, and that this N-linked glycosylation is important to target AC8 into lipid rafts. Disruption of the leucine zipper by site-directed mutagenesis results in the elimination of N-glycosylated forms and their exclusion from lipid rafts. Mutants of AC8 that cannot be N-glycosylated are not demonstrably associated with rafts, although they can still be regulated by CCE; however, raft integrity is required for the regulation of these mutants. These findings suggest that raft localized proteins in addition to AC8 are needed to mediate its regulation by CCE.

Sigma1 receptors inhibit store-operated Ca2+ entry by attenuating coupling of STIM1 to Orai1.

Project description:Sigma1 receptors (?1Rs) are expressed widely; they bind diverse ligands, including psychotropic drugs and steroids, regulate many ion channels, and are implicated in cancer and addiction. It is not known how ?1Rs exert such varied effects. We demonstrate that ?1Rs inhibit store-operated Ca(2+)entry (SOCE), a major Ca(2+)influx pathway, and reduce the Ca(2+)content of the intracellular stores. SOCE was inhibited by expression of ?1R or an agonist of ?1R and enhanced by loss of ?1R or an antagonist. Within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), ?1R associated with STIM1, the ER Ca(2+)sensor that regulates SOCE. This interaction was modulated by ?1R ligands. After depletion of Ca(2+)stores, ?1R accompanied STIM1 to ER-plasma membrane (PM) junctions where STIM1 stimulated opening of the Ca(2+)channel, Orai1. The association of STIM1 with ?1R slowed the recruitment of STIM1 to ER-PM junctions and reduced binding of STIM1 to PM Orai1. We conclude that ?1R attenuates STIM1 coupling to Orai1 and thereby inhibits SOCE.
