Kinetics of FKBP12.6 binding to ryanodine receptors in permeabilized cardiac myocytes and effects on Ca sparks.

ABSTRACT:

Rationale

FK506-binding proteins FKBP12.6 and FKBP12 are associated with cardiac ryanodine receptors (RyR2), and cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA)-dependent phosphorylation of RyR2 was proposed to interrupt FKBP12.6-RyR2 association and activate RyR2. However, the function of FKBP12.6/12 and role of PKA phosphorylation in cardiac myocytes are controversial.

Objective

To directly measure in situ binding of FKBP12.6/12 to RyR2 in ventricular myocytes, with simultaneous Ca sparks measurements as a RyR2 functional index.

Methods and results

We used permeabilized rat and mouse ventricular myocytes, and fluorescently-labeled FKBP12.6/12. Both FKBP12.6 and FKBP12 concentrate at Z-lines, consistent with RyR2 and Ca spark initiation sites. However, only FKBP12.6 inhibits resting RyR2 activity. Assessment of fluorescent FKBP binding in myocyte revealed a high FKBP12.6-RyR2 affinity (K(d)=0.7+/-0.1 nmol/L) and much lower FKBP12-RyR2 affinity (K(d)=206+/-70 nmol/L). Fluorescence recovery after photobleach confirmed this K(d) difference and showed that it is mediated by k(off). RyR2 phosphorylation by PKA did not alter binding kinetics or affinity of FKBP12.6/12 for RyR2. Using quantitative immunoblots, we determined endogenous [FKBP12] in intact myocytes is approximately 1 micromol/L (similar to [RyR]), whereas [FKBP12.6] is ConclusionsOnly 10% to 20% of endogenous myocyte RyR2s have FKBP12.6 associated, but virtually all myocyte FKBP12.6 is RyR2-bound (because of very high affinity). FKBP12.6 but not FKBP12 inhibits basal RyR2 activity. PKA-dependent RyR2 phosphorylation has no significant effect on binding of either FKBP12 or 12.6 to RyR2 in myocytes.

CaMKIIδC slows [Ca]i decline in cardiac myocytes by promoting Ca sparks.

Project description:Acute activation of calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (CaMKII) in permeabilized phospholamban knockout (PLN-KO) mouse myocytes phosphorylates ryanodine receptors (RyRs) and activates spontaneous local sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca release events (Ca sparks) even at constant SR Ca load. To assess how CaMKII regulates SR Ca release in intact myocytes (independent of SR Ca content changes or PLN effects), we compared Ca sparks in PLN-KO versus mice, which also have transgenic cardiac overexpression of CaMKIIδC in the PLN-KO background (KO/TG). Compared with PLN-KO mice, these KO/TG cardiomyocytes exhibited 1), increased twitch Ca transient and fractional release (both by ∼35%), but unaltered SR Ca load; 2), increased resting Ca spark frequency (300%) despite a lower diastolic [Ca]i, which also slowed twitch [Ca]i decline (suggesting CaMKII-dependent RyR Ca sensitization); 3), elevated Ca spark amplitude and rate of Ca release (which might indicate that more RyR channels participate in a single spark); 4), prolonged Ca spark rise time (which implies that CaMKII either delays RyR closure or prolongs the time when openings can occur); 5), more frequent repetitive sparks at single release sites. Analysis of repetitive sparks from individual Ca release sites indicates that CaMKII enhanced RyR Ca sensitivity, but did not change the time course of SR Ca refilling. These results demonstrate that there are dramatic CaMKII-mediated effects on RyR Ca release that occur via regulation of both RyR activation and termination processes.

The Interplay of Rogue and Clustered Ryanodine Receptors Regulates Ca2+ Waves in Cardiac Myocytes.

Project description:Ca2+ waves in cardiac myocytes can lead to arrhythmias owing to delayed after-depolarisations. Based on Ca2+ regulation from the junctional sarcoplasmic reticulum (JSR), a mathematical model was developed to investigate the interplay of clustered and rogue RyRs on Ca2+ waves. The model successfully reproduces Ca2+ waves in cardiac myocytes, which are in agreement with experimental results. A new wave propagation mode of "spark-diffusion-quark-spark" is put forward. It is found that rogue RyRs greatly increase the initiation of Ca2+ sparks, further contribute to the formation and propagation of Ca2+ waves when the free Ca2+ concentration in JSR lumen ([Ca2+]lumen) is higher than a threshold value of 0.7 mM. Computational results show an exponential increase in the velocity of Ca2+ waves with [Ca2+]lumen. In addition, more CRUs of rogue RyRs and Ca2+ release from rogue RyRs result in higher velocity and amplitude of Ca2+ waves. Distance between CRUs significantly affects the velocity of Ca2+ waves, but not the amplitude. This work could improve understanding the mechanism of Ca2+ waves in cardiac myocytes.

Three-dimensional visualization of FKBP12.6 binding to an open conformation of cardiac ryanodine receptor.

Project description:The cardiac isoform of the ryanodine receptor (RyR2) from dog binds predominantly a 12.6-kDa isoform of the FK506-binding protein (FKBP12.6), whereas RyR2 from other species binds both FKBP12.6 and the closely related isoform FKBP12. The role played by FKBP12.6 in modulating calcium release by RyR2 is unclear at present. We have used cryoelectron microscopy and three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction techniques to determine the binding position of FKBP12.6 on the surface of canine RyR2. Buffer conditions that should favor the "open" state of RyR2 were used. Quantitative comparison of 3D reconstructions of RyR2 in the presence and absence of FKBP12.6 reveals that FKBP12.6 binds along the sides of the square-shaped cytoplasmic region of the receptor, adjacent to domain 9, which forms part of the four clamp (corner-forming) structures. The location of the FKBP12.6 binding site on "open" RyR2 appears similar, but slightly displaced (by 1-2 nm) from that found previously for FKBP12 binding to the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor that was in the buffer that favors the "closed" state. The conformation of RyR2 containing bound FKBP12.6 differs considerably from that depleted of FKBP12.6, particularly in the transmembrane region and in the clamp structures. The x-ray structure of FKBP12.6 was docked into the region of the 3D reconstruction that is attributable to bound FKBP12.6, to show the relative orientations of amino acid residues (Gln-31, Asn-32, Phe-59) that have been implicated as being critical in interactions with RyR2. A thorough understanding of the structural basis of RyR2-FKBP12.6 interaction should aid in understanding the roles that have been proposed for FKBP12.6 in heart failure and in certain forms of sudden cardiac death.

Ryanodine receptor dispersion disrupts Ca2+ release in failing cardiac myocytes.

Project description:Reduced cardiac contractility during heart failure (HF) is linked to impaired Ca2+ release from Ryanodine Receptors (RyRs). We investigated whether this deficit can be traced to nanoscale RyR reorganization. Using super-resolution imaging, we observed dispersion of RyR clusters in cardiomyocytes from post-infarction HF rats, resulting in more numerous, smaller clusters. Functional groupings of RyR clusters which produce Ca2+ sparks (Ca2+ release units, CRUs) also became less solid. An increased fraction of small CRUs in HF was linked to augmented 'silent' Ca2+ leak, not visible as sparks. Larger multi-cluster CRUs common in HF also exhibited low fidelity spark generation. When successfully triggered, sparks in failing cells displayed slow kinetics as Ca2+ spread across dispersed CRUs. During the action potential, these slow sparks protracted and desynchronized the overall Ca2+ transient. Thus, nanoscale RyR reorganization during HF augments Ca2+ leak and slows Ca2+ release kinetics, leading to weakened contraction in this disease.

Ryanodine receptor current amplitude controls Ca2+ sparks in cardiac muscle.

Project description:In cardiac muscle, Ca(2+)-induced Ca(2+) release (CICR) from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) is mediated by ryanodine receptor (RyR) Ca(2+) release channels. The inherent positive feedback of CICR is normally well-controlled. Understanding this control mechanism is a priority because its malfunction has life-threatening consequences.We show that CICR local control is governed by SR Ca(2+) load, largely because load determines the single RyR current amplitude that drives inter-RyR CICR.We differentially manipulated single RyR Ca(2+) flux amplitude and SR Ca(2+) load in permeabilized ventricular myocytes as an endogenous cell biology model of the heart. Large RyR-permeable organic cations were used to interfere with Ca(2+) conductance through the open RyR pore. Single-channel studies show this attenuates current amplitude without altering other aspects of RyR function. In cells, the same experimental maneuver increased resting SR Ca(2+) load. Despite the increased load, Ca(2+) spark (inter-RyR CICR events) frequency decreased and sparks terminated earlier.Spark local control follows single RyR current amplitude, not simply SR Ca(2+) load. Spark frequency increases with load because spontaneous RyR openings at high loads produce larger currents (ie, a larger CICR trigger signal). Sparks terminate when load falls to the point at which single RyR current amplitude is no longer sufficient to sustain inter-RyR CICR. Thus, RyRs that spontaneously close no longer reopen and local Ca(2+) release ends.

Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Reduces Subcellular Heterogeneity of Ryanodine Receptors, T-Tubules, and Ca2+ Sparks Produced by Dyssynchronous Heart Failure.

Project description:Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is a major advance for treatment of patients with dyssynchronous heart failure (DHF). However, our understanding of DHF-associated remodeling of subcellular structure and function and their restoration after CRT remains incomplete.We investigated subcellular heterogeneity of remodeling of structures and proteins associated with excitation-contraction coupling in cardiomyocytes in DHF and after CRT. Three-dimensional confocal microscopy revealed subcellular heterogeneity of ryanodine receptor (RyR) density and the transverse tubular system (t-system) in a canine model of DHF. RyR density at the ends of lateral left ventricular cardiomyocytes was higher than that in cell centers, whereas the t-system was depleted at cell ends. In anterior left ventricular cardiomyocytes, however, we found a similar degree of heterogeneous RyR remodeling, despite preserved t-system. Synchronous heart failure was associated with marginal heterogeneity of RyR density. We used rapid scanning confocal microscopy to investigate effects of heterogeneous structural remodeling on calcium signaling. In DHF, diastolic Ca(2+) spark density was smaller at cell ends versus centers. After CRT, subcellular heterogeneity of structures and function was reduced.RyR density exhibits remarkable subcellular heterogeneity in DHF. RyR remodeling occurred in lateral and anterior cardiomyocytes, but remodeling of t-system was confined to lateral myocytes. These findings indicate that different mechanisms underlie remodeling of RyRs and t-system. Furthermore, we suggest that ventricular dyssynchrony exacerbates subcellular remodeling in heart failure. CRT efficiently reduced subcellular heterogeneity. These results will help to explain remodeling of excitation-contraction coupling in disease and restoration after CRT.

Calmodulin-binding locations on the skeletal and cardiac ryanodine receptors.

Project description:Ryanodine receptor types 1 (RyR1) and 2 (RyR2) are calcium release channels that are highly enriched in skeletal and cardiac muscle, respectively, where they play an essential role in excitation-contraction coupling. Apocalmodulin (apo-CaM) weakly activates RyR1 but inhibits RyR2, whereas Ca(2+)-calmodulin inhibits both isoforms. Previous cryo-EM studies showed distinctly different binding locations on RyR1 for the two states of CaM. However, recent studies employing FRET appear to challenge these findings. Here, using cryo-EM, we have determined that a CaM mutant that is incapable of binding calcium binds to RyR1 at the apo site, regardless of the calcium concentration. We have also re-determined the location of RyR1-bound Ca(2+)-CaM using uniform experimental conditions. Our results show the existence of the two overlapping but distinct binding sites for CaM in RyR1 and imply that the binding location switch is due to Ca(2+) binding to CaM, as opposed to direct effects of Ca(2+) on RyR1. We also discuss explanations that could resolve the apparent conflict between the cryo-EM and FRET results. Interestingly, apo-CaM binds to RyR2 at a similar binding location to that of Ca(2+)-CaM on RyR1, in seeming agreement with the inhibitory effects of these two forms of CaM on their respective receptors.

Sparks and puffs in oligodendrocyte progenitors: cross talk between ryanodine receptors and inositol trisphosphate receptors.

Project description:Investigating how calcium release from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is triggered and coordinated is crucial to our understanding of how oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPs) develop into myelinating cells. Sparks and puffs represent highly localized Ca(2+) release from the ER through ryanodine receptors (RyRs) and inositol trisphosphate receptors (IP(3)Rs), respectively. To study whether sparks or puffs trigger Ca(2+) waves in OPs, we performed rapid high-resolution line scan recordings in fluo-4-loaded OP processes. We found spontaneous and evoked sparks and puffs, and we have identified functional cross talk between IP(3)Rs and RyRs. Local events evoked using the IP(3)-linked agonist methacholine (MeCh) showed significantly different morphology compared with events evoked using the caffeine analog 3,7-dimethyl-1-propargylxanthine (DMPX). Pretreatment with MeCh potentiated DMPX-evoked events, whereas inhibition of RyRs potentiated events evoked by low concentrations of MeCh. Furthermore, activation of IP(3)Rs but not RyRs was critical for Ca(2+) wave initiation. Using immunocytochemistry, we show OPs express the specific Ca(2+) release channel subtypes RyR3 and IP(3)R2 in patches along OP processes. RyRs are coexpressed with IP(3)Rs in some patches, but IP(3)Rs are also found alone. This differential distribution pattern may underlie the differences in local and global Ca(2+) signals mediated by these two receptors. Thus, in OPs, interactions between IP(3)Rs and RyRs determine the spatial and temporal characteristics of calcium signaling, from microdomains to intracellular waves.

FKBP12 activates the cardiac ryanodine receptor Ca2+-release channel and is antagonised by FKBP12.6.

Project description:Changes in FKBP12.6 binding to cardiac ryanodine receptors (RyR2) are implicated in mediating disturbances in Ca(2+)-homeostasis in heart failure but there is controversy over the functional effects of FKBP12.6 on RyR2 channel gating. We have therefore investigated the effects of FKBP12.6 and another structurally similar molecule, FKBP12, which is far more abundant in heart, on the gating of single sheep RyR2 channels incorporated into planar phospholipid bilayers and on spontaneous waves of Ca(2+)-induced Ca(2+)-release in rat isolated permeabilised cardiac cells. We demonstrate that FKBP12 is a high affinity activator of RyR2, sensitising the channel to cytosolic Ca(2+), whereas FKBP12.6 has very low efficacy, but can antagonise the effects of FKBP12. Mathematical modelling of the data shows the importance of the relative concentrations of FKBP12 and FKBP12.6 in determining RyR2 activity. Consistent with the single-channel results, physiological concentrations of FKBP12 (3 µM) increased Ca(2+)-wave frequency and decreased the SR Ca(2+)-content in cardiac cells. FKBP12.6, itself, had no effect on wave frequency but antagonised the effects of FKBP12.We provide a biophysical analysis of the mechanisms by which FK-binding proteins can regulate RyR2 single-channel gating. Our data indicate that FKBP12, in addition to FKBP12.6, may be important in regulating RyR2 function in the heart. In heart failure, it is possible that an alteration in the dual regulation of RyR2 by FKBP12 and FKBP12.6 may occur. This could contribute towards a higher RyR2 open probability, 'leaky' RyR2 channels and Ca(2+)-dependent arrhythmias.

Ca2+-dependent calmodulin binding to cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR2) calmodulin-binding domains.

Project description:The Ca2+ sensor calmodulin (CaM) regulates cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR2)-mediated Ca2+ release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. CaM inhibits RyR2 in a Ca2+-dependent manner and aberrant CaM-dependent inhibition results in life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias. However, the molecular details of the CaM-RyR2 interaction remain unclear. Four CaM-binding domains (CaMBD1a, -1b, -2, and -3) in RyR2 have been proposed. Here, we investigated the Ca2+-dependent interactions between CaM and these CaMBDs by monitoring changes in the fluorescence anisotropy of carboxytetramethylrhodamine (TAMRA)-labeled CaMBD peptides during titration with CaM at a wide range of Ca2+ concentrations. We showed that CaM bound to all four CaMBDs with affinities that increased with Ca2+ concentration. CaM bound to CaMBD2 and -3 with high affinities across all Ca2+ concentrations tested, but bound to CaMBD1a and -1b only at Ca2+ concentrations above 0.2 µM. Binding experiments using individual CaM domains revealed that the CaM C-domain preferentially bound to CaMBD2, and the N-domain to CaMBD3. Moreover, the Ca2+ affinity of the CaM C-domain in complex with CaMBD2 or -3 was so high that these complexes are essentially Ca2+ saturated under resting Ca2+ conditions. Conversely, the N-domain senses Ca2+ exactly in the transition from resting to activating Ca2+ when complexed to either CaMBD2 or -3. Altogether, our results support a binding model where the CaM C-domain is anchored to RyR2 CaMBD2 and saturated with Ca2+ during Ca2+ oscillations, while the CaM N-domain functions as a dynamic Ca2+ sensor that can bridge noncontiguous regions of RyR2 or clamp down onto CaMBD2.
