Azidocalmodulin derivatives. Activation of, and binding to, three target proteins: aorta myosin light-chain kinase, erythrocyte (Mg2+ + Ca2+)-dependent ATPase and cardiac sarcoplasmic-reticulum kinase.

ABSTRACT: Different azidocalmodulin derivatives were synthesized by modification of either one carboxylic acid group or one or several arginine residues and their binding and activation capacity investigated in three target enzyme systems. The systems studied were smooth-muscle myosin light-chain kinase, cardiac sarcoplasmic-reticulum kinase and erythrocyte (Mg2+ + Ca2+)-dependent ATPase. The results indicated that the activation ability of each calmodulin derivative was different depending on the system studied. Binding studies carried out by the displacement of 125I-calmodulin indicated that the monosubstitutions did not greatly alter the apparent Kd of calmodulin for the enzymes but that the modification of four arginine residues caused a 4-8-fold increase in the apparent Kd in all systems. These results have shown that azidocalmodulin derivatives may have different degrees of usefulness in the study of calmodulin target proteins in different systems, with the behaviour of the derivatives not predictable on the basis of the nature (soluble or membrane-bound) or the type (ATPase or kinase) of enzyme system to be investigated. However, the monosubstituted calmodulin and, in particular, the carboxylic acid-group-modified derivative (where the modification was statistically dispersed over the protein chain) are good candidates for photolabelling calmodulin-binding proteins.

Cysteine-674 oxidation and degradation of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) ATPase in diabetic pig aorta.

Project description:The sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase (SERCA) is redox-regulated by posttranslational thiol modifications of cysteine-674 to regulate smooth muscle relaxation and migration. To detect oxidation of cysteine-674 that irreversibly prevents redox regulation, a polyclonal, sequence-specific antibody was developed toward a peptide containing cysteine-674 sulfonic acid. The antibody stained intact 110-kDa SERCA in pig cardiac SR that was oxidized in vitro by peroxynitrite in a sequence-specific manner, and histochemically stained atherosclerotic pig and rabbit aorta. Surprisingly, immunoblots of the pig aorta failed to stain intact 110-kDa SERCA protein, but rather, higher molecular mass aggregates and lower molecular mass bands. Of the latter bands at 70 and 60 kDa, the largest were observed in diabetic, hyperlipidemic pigs, and coincided with the most positive histochemical staining. The 70- and 60-kDa molecular mass bands also coincided with the majority of the protein detected by a monoclonal total anti-SERCA antibody, which detected the intact 110-kDa protein in normal pigs. Mass spectrometry identified SERCA in all the major bands detected by the sulfonic acid antibody as well as the oxidation of cysteine-674 in the 70-kDa band. These studies demonstrate a sequence-specific antibody that detects partial degradation products of SERCA, which represent the majority of the protein in some diabetic hypercholesterolemic pig aortae. In addition, the results suggest an association between irreversible oxidation of SERCA and its degradation, and that an important portion of the oxidized protein in tissue samples may be partially degraded.

Binding interactions of porphyrin derivatives with Ca(2+) ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SERCA1a).

Project description:The use of Porphyrin derivatives as photosensitizers in Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) was investigated by means of a molecular docking study. These molecules can bind to intracellular targets such as P-type CaCa(2+) ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SERCA1a). CAChe software was successfully employed for conducting the docking of Tetraphenylporphinesulfonate(TPPS), 5,10,15,20- Tetrakis (4-sulfonatophenyl) porphyrinato Iron(III) Chloride (FeTPPS) and 5,10,15,20-Tetrakis (4-sulfonatophenyl) porphyrinato Iron(III) nitrosyl Chloride (FeNOTPPS) with CaCa(2+) ATPase from sarcoplasmic reticulum of rabbit. The results show that FeNOTPPS forms the most stable complex with CaCa(2+) ATPase.

Effects of Mg2+, anions and cations on the Ca2+ + Mg2+-activated ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum.

Project description:In a previous paper [Gould, East, Froud, McWhirter, Stefanova & Lee (1986) Biochem. J. 237, 217-227] we presented a kinetic model for the activity of the Ca2+ + Mg2+-activated ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum. Here we extend the model to account for the effects on ATPase activity of Mg2+, cations and anions. We find that Mg2+ concentrations in the millimolar range inhibit ATPase activity, which we attribute to competition between Mg2+ and MgATP for binding to the nucleotide-binding site on the E1 and E2 conformations of the ATPase and on the phosphorylated forms of the ATPase. Competition is also suggested between Mg2+ and MgADP for binding to the phosphorylated form of the ATPase. ATPase activity is increased by low concentrations of K+, Na+ and NH4+, but inhibited by higher concentrations. It is proposed that these effects follow from an increase in the rate of dephosphorylation but a decrease in the rate of the conformational transition E1'PCa2-E2'PCa2 with increasing cation concentration. Li+ and choline+ decrease ATPase activity. Anions also decrease ATPase activity, the effects of I- and SCN- being more marked than that of Cl-. These effects are attributed to binding at the nucleotide-binding site, with a decrease in binding affinity and an increase in 'off' rate constant for the nucleotide.

Ion pathways in the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase.

Project description:The sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA) is a transmembrane ion transporter belonging to the P(II)-type ATPase family. It performs the vital task of re-sequestering cytoplasmic Ca(2+) to the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum store, thereby also terminating Ca(2+)-induced signaling such as in muscle contraction. This minireview focuses on the transport pathways of Ca(2+) and H(+) ions across the lipid bilayer through SERCA. The ion-binding sites of SERCA are accessible from either the cytoplasm or the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum lumen, and the Ca(2+) entry and exit channels are both formed mainly by rearrangements of four N-terminal transmembrane ?-helices. Recent improvements in the resolution of the crystal structures of rabbit SERCA1a have revealed a hydrated pathway in the C-terminal transmembrane region leading from the ion-binding sites to the cytosol. A comparison of different SERCA conformations reveals that this C-terminal pathway is exclusive to Ca(2+)-free E2 states, suggesting that it may play a functional role in proton release from the ion-binding sites. This is in agreement with molecular dynamics simulations and mutational studies and is in striking analogy to a similar pathway recently described for the related sodium pump. We therefore suggest a model for the ion exchange mechanism in P(II)-ATPases including not one, but two cytoplasmic pathways working in concert.

A kinetic model for the Ca2+ + Mg2+-activated ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum.

Project description:The Ca2+ + Mg2+-activated ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum exhibits complex kinetics of activation with respect to ATP. ATPase activity is pH-dependent, with similar pH-activity profiles at high and low concentrations of ATP. Low concentrations of Ca2+ in the micromolar range activate the ATPase, whereas activity is inhibited by Ca2+ at millimolar concentrations. The pH-dependence of this Ca2+ inhibition and the effect of the detergent C12E8 (dodecyl octaethylene glycol monoether) on Ca2+ inhibition are similar to those observed on activation by low concentrations of Ca2+. On the basis of these and other studies we present a kinetic model for the ATPase. The ATPase is postulated to exist in one of two conformations: a conformation (E1) of high affinity for Ca2+ and MgATP and a conformation (E2) of low affinity for Ca2+ and MgATP. Ca2+ binding to E2 and to the phosphorylated form E2P are equal. Proton binding at the Ca2+-binding sites in the E1 and E2 conformations explains the pH-dependence of Ca2+ effects. Binding of MgATP to the phosphorylated intermediate E1'PCa2 and to E2 modulate the rates of the transport step E1'PCa-E2'PCa2 and the return of the empty Ca2+ sites to the outside surface of the sarcoplasmic reticulum, as well as the rate of dephosphorylation of E2P. Only a single binding site for MgATP is postulated.

Quantitative determination of Ca2+-dependent Mg2+-ATPase from sarcoplasmic reticulum in muscle biopsies.

Project description:The possibility of quantifying the total concentration of Ca2+-dependent Mg2+-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum was investigated by measurement of the Ca2+-dependent steady-state phosphorylation from [gamma-32P]ATP and the Ca2+-dependent 3-O-methylfluorescein phosphatase (3-O-MFPase) activity in crude muscle homogenates. The Ca2+-dependent phosphorylation at 0 degree C (mean +/- S.E.) was 40.0 +/- 2.5 (n = 6) and 6.2 +/- 0.7 (n = 4) nmol/g wet wt. in rat extensor digitorum longus (EDL) and soleus muscle, respectively (P less than 0.001). The Ca2+-dependent 3-O-MFPase activity at 37 degrees C was 1424 +/- 238 (n = 6) and 335 +/- 56 (n = 4) nmol/min per g wet wt. in rat EDL and soleus muscle, respectively (P less than 0.01). The molecular activity calculated from these measurements amounted to 35 +/- 5 min-1 (n = 6) and 55 +/- 10 min-1 (n = 4) for EDL and soleus muscle respectively. These values were not different from the molecular activity calculated for purified Ca2+-ATPase (36 min-1). The Ca2+-dependent 32P incorporation in soleus muscle decreased in the order mice greater than rats greater than guinea pigs. In EDL muscles from hypothyroid rats at a 30% reduction of the Ca2+-dependent phosphorylation was observed. The Ca2+-dependent phosphorylation in vastus lateralis muscle from three human subjects amounted to 4.5 +/- 0.8 nmol/g wet wt. It is concluded that measurement of the Ca2+-dependent phosphorylation allows rapid and reproducible quantification of the concentration of Ca2+-dependent Mg2+-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum. Since only 20-60 mg of tissue is required for the measurements, the method can also be used for biopsies obtained in clinical studies.

Definition of surface-exposed epitopes on the (Ca(2+)-Mg2+)-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum.

Project description:Epitopes for monoclonal antibodies binding to the native (Ca(2+)-Mg2+)-ATPase have been defined by studying binding to sets of hexameric peptides synthesized on plastic pegs. Epitopes have been confirmed by demonstrating the binding of anti-peptide antibodies to the ATPase. A method is presented for definition of surface-exposed epitopes using polyclonal antibodies. Three surface-exposed epitopes have been defined in the nucleotide-binding domain of the ATPase, suggesting considerable surface exposure of this region. Other surface-exposed epitopes have been located in the region of the fourth stalk domain.

Binding of Ca2+ to the (Ca(2+)-Mg2+)-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum: equilibrium studies.

Project description:Equilibrium fluorescence methods have been used to establish a model for Ca2+ binding to the (Ca(2+)-Mg2+)-ATPase of skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum and to define the effects of H+ and Mg2+ on Ca2+ binding. The basic scheme proposed is: E2 <--> E1 <--> E1Ca <--> El'Ca <--> E1'Ca2. The E1 conformation of the ATPase initially has one high-affinity binding site for Ca2+ exposed to the cytoplasmic side of the sarcoplasmic reticulum, but in the E2 conformation this site is unable to bind Ca2+; Ca2+ does not bind to luminal sites on E2. The second, outer, Ca(2+)-binding site on the ATPase is formed after binding of Ca2+ to the first, inner, site on E1 and the E1Ca <--> E1'Ca conformation change. The pH- and Mg(2+)-dependence of the E2 <--> E1 equilibrium has been established after changes in the fluorescence of the ATPase labelled with 4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole. It is proposed that Mg2+ from the cytoplasmic side of the sarcoplasmic reticulum can bind to the first Ca(2+)-binding site on both E1 and E2. It is proposed that the change in tryptophan fluorescence intensity after binding of Ca2+ follows from the E1Ca <--> E1'Ca change. The pH- and Mg(2+)-dependence of this change defines H(+)- and Mg(2+)-binding constants at the two Ca(2+)-binding sites. It is proposed that the change in tryptophan fluorescence observed on binding Mg2+ follows from binding at the second Ca(2+)-binding site. Effects of pH and Mg2+ on the fluorescence of the ATPase labelled with 4-(bromomethyl)-6,7-dimethoxycoumarin are proposed to follow from binding to a site on the ATPase, the 'gating' site, which affects the affinity of the first Ca(2+)-binding site for Ca2+ and affects the rate of dissociation of Ca2+ from the ATPase.

Binding of Ca2+ to the (Ca(2+)-Mg2+)-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum: kinetic studies.

Project description:Stop-flow fluorescence and rapid-filtration methods have been used to establish the kinetics of Ca2+ binding to, and dissociation from, the (Ca(2+)-Mg2+)-ATPase of skeletal-muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum and to define the effects of H+ and Mg2+ on Ca2+ binding and dissociation rates. The kinetics have been interpreted in terms of the scheme: E2 E2<==>E1<==>E1Ca<==>E1'Ca<==>E1'Ca2. The kinetics of the E2<==>E1 E1 transition have been determined by measuring the rate of change of the fluorescence of the ATPase labelled with 4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole after a pH jump or the addition of Ca2+ to the labelled ATPase in the presence of thapsigargin or thapsivillosin A. It has been shown that Mg2+ has a marked effect on Ca2+ dissociation at pH 7.2 and that changes in the tryptophan fluorescence of the ATPase follow the same time course as the dissociation of 45Ca2+. It is proposed that the effect of Mg2+ follows from binding to a 'gating' site, as detected by changes in the fluorescence of the ATPase labelled with 4-(bromomethyl)-6,7-dimethoxycoumarin. The rate of dissociation of Ca2+ from the ATPase increases with increasing pH. The rate of dissociation of Ca2+ decreases with increasing Ca2+ concentration in the medium, with an apparent affinity for Ca2+ greater than that seen for the change in fluorescence amplitude. It is shown that this follows if the first, inner, Ca(2+)-binding site on the ATPase has a lower affinity for Ca2+ than the second, outer, site. Effects of H+ and Mg2+ on Ca2+ dissociation can be treated by the quasiequilibrium approach. Mg2+ and H+ also affect the rate of Ca2+ binding to the ATPase, and effects of H+ and Mg2+ on the E2<==>E1 equilibrium explain the results of experiments in which the concentrations of H+ and Mg2+ are jumped.

Extracellular signal-regulated kinase activation during cardiac hypertrophy reduces sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase 2 (SERCA2) transcription.

Project description:Pathologic cardiac hypertrophy can lead to heart failure, but the mechanisms involved are poorly understood. SERCA2 is critical for normal cardiac calcium handling and function and SERCA2 mRNA and protein levels are reduced by cardiac hypertrophy. We hypothesized that extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) 1/2 activation during hypertrophy reduced SERCA2 transcription. Using a neonatal rat ventricular myocyte model of hypertrophy, we found that pharmacologic inhibitors of ERK activation preserve SERCA2 mRNA levels during hypertrophy. ERK activation is sufficient to reduce SERCA2 mRNA. We determined that ERK represses SERCA2 transcription via nuclear factor-kappaB (NFkB), and activation of NFkB is sufficient to reduce SERCA2 mRNA in cardiomyocytes. This work establishes novel connections between ERK, NFkB, and SERCA2 repression during cardiac hypertrophy. This mechanism may have implications for the progression of hypertrophy to heart failure.
