Project description:Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase β (CaMKKβ) is a serine/threonine-directed kinase that is activated following increases in intracellular Ca(2+). CaMKKβ activates Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase I, Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IV, and the AMP-dependent protein kinase in a number of physiological pathways, including learning and memory formation, neuronal differentiation, and regulation of energy balance. Here, we report the novel regulation of CaMKKβ activity by multisite phosphorylation. We identify three phosphorylation sites in the N terminus of CaMKKβ, which regulate its Ca(2+)/calmodulin-independent autonomous activity. We then identify the kinases responsible for these phosphorylations as cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5) and glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3). In addition to regulation of autonomous activity, we find that phosphorylation of CaMKKβ regulates its half-life. We find that cellular levels of CaMKKβ correlate with CDK5 activity and are regulated developmentally in neurons. Finally, we demonstrate that appropriate phosphorylation of CaMKKβ is critical for its role in neurite development. These results reveal a novel regulatory mechanism for CaMKKβ-dependent signaling cascades.

Project description:Effects of polyamines on various protein kinases were investigated. It was found that both phospholipid-sensitive Ca2+-dependent protein kinase and myosin light-chain kinase (a calmodulin-sensitive species of Ca2+-dependent protein kinase) were inhibited to different degrees by polyamines, with an approximate order of inhibitory potency of spermine = 1, 12-diaminododecane greater than spermidine = 1, 10-diaminodecane much greater than cadaverine = putrescine. Kinetic analysis revealed that spermine inhibited the phospholipid-sensitive enzyme non-competitively with respect to Ca2+ (Ki = 0.84 mM) and phosphatidylserine (Ki = 0.90 mM); it also inhibited myosin light-chain kinase non-competitively with respect to Ca2+ (Ki = 1.82 mM) and calmodulin (Ki = 2.73 mM). 1, 12-Diaminododecane, in comparison, inhibited the phospholipid-sensitive enzyme competitively with respect to Ca2+ (Ki = 0.45 mM) and phosphatidylserine (Ki = 0.50 mM); it also inhibited myosin light-chain kinase competitively with respect to calmodulin (Ki = 0.63 mM) but non-competitively with respect to Ca2+ (Ki = 1.49 mM). Moreover, spermine (0.5 mM) was found to inhibit markedly phosphatidylserine/Ca2+- and calmodulin/Ca2+-stimulated phosphorylation of endogenous proteins in rat brain particulate fraction. All the polyamines tested were practically without effect on cyclic AMP-dependent and cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinases. Polyarginine, like spermine, was found to be a more selective inhibitor of Ca2+-dependent protein kinases, whereas polyglutamate preferentially inhibited the cyclic nucleotide-dependent enzymes. The present results indicated that, in addition to certain lipophilic compounds (such as trifluoperazine, palmitoylcarnitine, adriamycin and naphthalenesulphonamide) and polypeptides with hydrophobic regions (such as melittin and polymyxin B) previously reported, polycationic compounds (exemplified by polyamines) could also inhibit the two classes of Ca2+-dependent protein kinases requiring either phospholipid or calmodulin as a cofactor. Because of the high cellular concentration (up to 10 mM) and the differential effects of polyamines, it is suggested that spermine, and to smaller extents spermidine and putrescine, may be involved in the regulation of certain Ca2+-dependent protein-phosphorylation systems in vivo.

Project description:Cardiac phospholipid-sensitive Ca2+-dependent protein kinase phosphorylated cardiac troponin inhibitory subunit (troponin I) and tropomyosin-binding subunit (troponin T), present either as the free form or as the troponin-tropomyosin complex. Exhaustive phosphorylation of troponin I and of troponin T revealed that 1.7 and 2 mol of phosphate was incorporated/mol of the subunits respectively. Cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, though incorporating 0.8 mol of phosphate/mol of troponin I, was unable to phosphorylate troponin T. Phosphorylation of troponin I (apparent Km = 3.4 microM; Vmax. = 2.6 mumol/min per mg of enzyme) or troponin T (apparent Km = 0.3 microM; Vmax. = 0.5 mumol/min per mg of enzyme) by the Ca2+-dependent enzyme was inhibited by various agents, such as adriamycin, palmitoylcarnitine, trifluoperazine, melittin and N-(6-aminohexyl)-5-chloronaphthalene-1-sulphonamide (compound W-7). Ca2+ antagonists (such as verapamil), forskolin and ouabain were ineffective. These findings indicate that troponin I and troponin T were effective substrates for this species of Ca2+-dependent protein kinase, suggesting its potential regulatory role in the contractile activity of myofibrils modulated by troponin.

Project description:We and others showed that ATP11A and ATP11C, members of the P4-ATPase family, translocate phosphatidylserine (PS) and phosphatidylethanolamine from the exoplasmic to the cytoplasmic leaflets at the plasma membrane. PS exposure on the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane in activated platelets, erythrocytes, and apoptotic cells was proposed to require the inhibition of PS-flippases, as well as activation of scramblases. Although ATP11A and ATP11C are cleaved by caspases in apoptotic cells, it remains unclear how PS-flippase activity is regulated in non-apoptotic cells. Here we report that the PS-flippase ATP11C, but not ATP11A, is sequestered from the plasma membrane via clathrin-mediated endocytosis upon Ca2+-mediated PKC activation. Importantly, we show that a characteristic di-leucine motif (SVRPLL) in the C-terminal cytoplasmic region of ATP11C becomes functional upon PKC activation. Moreover endocytosis of ATP11C is induced by Ca2+-signaling via Gq-coupled receptors. Our data provide the first evidence for signal-dependent regulation of mammalian P4-ATPase.

Project description:AimsCalmodulin (CaM) regulates Na+ channel gating through binding to an IQ-like motif in the C-terminus. Ca2+/CaM-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) regulates Ca2+ handling, and chronic overactivity of CaMKII is associated with left ventricular hypertrophy and dysfunction and lethal arrhythmias. However, the acute effects of Ca2+/CaM and CaMKII on cardiac Na+ channels are not fully understood.Methods and resultsPurified Na(V)1.5-glutathione-S-transferase fusion peptides were phosphorylated in vitro by CaMKII predominantly on the I-II linker. Whole-cell voltage-clamp was used to measure Na+ current (I(Na)) in isolated guinea-pig ventricular myocytes in the absence or presence of CaM or CaMKII in the pipette solution. CaMKII shifted the voltage dependence of Na+ channel availability by approximately +5 mV, hastened recovery from inactivation, decreased entry into intermediate or slow inactivation, and increased persistent (late) current, but did not change I(Na) decay. These CaMKII-induced changes of Na+ channel gating were completely abolished by a specific CaMKII inhibitor, autocamtide-2-related inhibitory peptide (AIP). Ca2+/CaM alone reproduced the CaMKII-induced changes of I(Na) availability and the fraction of channels undergoing slow inactivation, but did not alter recovery from inactivation or the magnitude of the late current. Furthermore, the CaM-induced changes were also completely abolished by AIP. On the other hand, cAMP-dependent protein kinase A inhibitors did not abolish the CaM/CaMKII-induced alterations of I(Na) function.ConclusionCa2+/CaM and CaMKII have distinct effects on the inactivation phenotype of cardiac Na+ channels. The differences are consistent with CaM-independent effects of CaMKII on cardiac Na+ channel gating.

Project description:A phospholipid-sensitive Ca2+-dependent protein kinase was purified to homogeneity, for the first time, from extracts of pig spleen, employing the steps of DEAE-cellulose, octyl-agarose, Sephacryl S-200 and phosphatidylserine-Affigel 10 affinity chromatographies. The purified enzyme appeared as a single protein band on both analytical (non-denaturing) and sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis, having a minimum mol.wt. of 68 000 +/- 200. The molecular weight of the enzyme was also determined to be 74 500 +/- 4600 by gel filtration and 80 000 based on its sedimentation coefficient (5.52 S) and Stokes radius (3.52 +/- 0.09 nm), indicating that the enzyme was a monomeric protein. The frictional ratio (f/f0) of the enzyme was 1.24, indicating it was non-globular in shape. The enzyme had a pI of 5.3, and a pH optimum of 6.5 for its reaction. Amino acid analysis indicated that the enzyme apparently was not similar to myosin light-chain kinase (a calmodulin-sensitive species of Ca2+-dependent protein kinase) or cyclic AMP-dependent and cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinases. The enzyme had an apparent Km for ATP of 7.5 microns. Histone H1 and myelin basic protein were effective substrates for the enzyme, with apparent Km values of 0.3 and 0.2 microns, and Vmax, values of 0.06 and 0.09 mumol/min per mg of enzyme respectively. The enzyme activity was dependent on both phosphatidylserine (apparent Ka = 6.25 micrograms/ml) and Ca2+ (apparent Ka = 160 microns). Calmodulin was unable to substitute for the phospholipid as a cofactor, nor was it a subunit of the enzyme. Sr2+ and Ba2+ could partially mimic Ca2+ to activate the enzyme in the presence of phosphatidylserine. An endogenous substrate protein (mol.wt. 41 000) for the enzyme was found in the total, solubilized fraction of pig spleen. Monoclonal antibodies against the enzyme interacted similarly with the homogeneous and impure enzyme; the antibodies, however, did not bind to cyclic nucleotide-dependent protein kinases.

Project description:Skeletal-muscle troponin I and troponin T were found to be rapidly phosphorylated by cardiac phospholipid-sensitive Ca2+-dependent protein kinase, with Km values of 6.66 and 0.13 microM respectively. Stoichiometric phosphorylation of skeletal troponin I (endogenous phosphate content 0.7 mol/mol) indicated that the Ca2+-dependent enzyme and cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase incorporated 0.9 and 0.8 mol/mol respectively. The same experiments with skeletal troponin T (endogenous phosphate content 1.9 mol/mol) revealed a maximal phosphorylation of 2 mol/mol by the Ca2+-dependent enzyme, whereas the cyclic AMP-dependent enzyme was unable to phosphorylate troponin T. The Ca2+-dependent enzyme phosphorylated both serine and threonine residues in skeletal and cardiac troponin I or troponin T; the cyclic AMP-dependent enzyme, in comparison, phosphorylated only serine in skeletal and cardiac troponin I. Although an equimolar amount of skeletal or cardiac troponin C markedly inhibited (80-90%) phosphorylation of skeletal and cardiac troponin I by the Ca2+-dependent enzyme, these troponin C preparations inhibited only phosphorylation of skeletal troponin I, but not that of cardiac troponin I, by the cyclic AMP-dependent enzyme. Calmodulin and Ca2+-binding protein S-100a could mimic the inhibitory effect of troponin C. A tissue specificity appeared to exist for the skeletal troponin T-skeletal troponin C interaction. Inhibition of troponin T phosphorylation by an equimolar amount of troponin C was lower than that of troponin I phosphorylation; these findings might explain in part why troponin T was the major substrate for the Ca2+-dependent enzyme in the troponin complex. The present studies indicate that skeletal and cardiac troponin I and troponin T were effective substrates for phospholipid-sensitive Ca2+-dependent protein kinase, suggesting a potential involvement of this Ca2+-effector enzyme in the regulation of myofibrillar activity.

Project description:Effects of melittin, an amphipathic polypeptide, on various species of protein kinases were investigated. It was found that melittin inhibited the newly identified phospholipid-sensitive Ca2+-dependent protein kinase (from heart, brain, spleen and neutrophils) and the cardiac myosin light-chain kinase, a calmodulin-sensitive Ca2+-dependent enzyme. In contrast, melittin had little or no effect on either the holoenzymes of the cardiac cyclic AMP-dependent and cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinases or the catalytic subunit of the former. Kinetic analysis indicated that melittin inhibited phospholipid-sensitive Ca2+-dependent protein kinase non-competitively with respect to ATP (Ki = 1.3 microM); although exhibiting complex kinetics, its inhibition of the enzyme was overcome by phosphatidylserine (a phospholipid cofactor), but not by protein substrate (histone H1) or Ca2+. On the other hand, melittin inhibited myosin light-chain kinase non-competitively with respect to ATP (Ki = 1.4 microM) or Ca2+ (Ki = 1.9 microM), and competitively with respect to calmodulin (Ki = 0.08 microM); although exhibiting complex kinetics, its inhibition of the enzyme was reversed by myosin light chains (substrate protein). The present findings indicate the presence of functionally important hydrophobic or hydrophilic loci on the Ca2+-dependent protein kinases, but not on the cyclic nucleotide-dependent class of protein kinase, with which melittin can interact. Moreover, the kinetic data suggest that melittin inhibited myosin light-chain kinase by interacting with a site on the enzyme the same as, or proximal to, the calmodulin-binding site, thus interfering with the formation of active enzyme-calmodulin-Ca2+ complex.

Project description:Ca(2+) signals through store-operated Ca(2+) (SOC) channels, activated by the depletion of Ca(2+) from the endoplasmic reticulum, regulate various physiological events. Orai1 is the pore-forming subunit of the Ca(2+) release-activated Ca(2+) (CRAC) channel, the best characterized SOC channel. Orai1 is activated by stromal interaction molecule (STIM) 1, a Ca(2+) 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 Ca(2+) entry (SOCE) by phosphorylation of Orai1. PKC inhibitors and knockdown of PKCbeta both resulted in increased Ca(2+) 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.

Project description:During screening of protein-protein interactions, using human protein arrays carrying 19,676 recombinant glutathione s-transferase (GST)-fused human proteins, we identified the high-mobility protein group 20A (HMG20A) as a novel S100A6 binding partner. We confirmed the Ca2+-dependent interaction of HMG20A with S100A6 by the protein array method, biotinylated S100A6 overlay, and GST-pulldown assay in vitro and in transfected COS-7 cells. Co-immunoprecipitation of S100A6 with HMG20A from HeLa cells in a Ca2+-dependent manner revealed the physiological relevance of the S100A6/HMG20A interaction. In addition, HMG20A has the ability to interact with S100A1, S100A2, and S100B in a Ca2+-dependent manner, but not with S100A4, A11, A12, and calmodulin. S100A6 binding experiments using various HMG20A mutants revealed that Ca2+/S100A6 interacts with the C-terminal region (residues 311-342) of HMG20A with stoichiometric binding (HMG20A:S100A6 dimer = 1:1). This was confirmed by the fact that a GST-HMG20A mutant lacking the S100A6 binding region (residues 311-347, HMG20A-ΔC) failed to interact with endogenous S100A6 in transfected COS-7 cells, unlike wild-type HMG20A. Taken together, these results identify, for the first time, HMG20A as a target of Ca2+/S100 proteins, and may suggest a novel linkage between Ca2+/S100 protein signaling and HMG20A function, including in the regulation of neural differentiation.
