Investigation of the binding of Ca2+, Mg2+, Mn2+ and K+ to the vitamin D-dependent Ca2+-binding protein from pig duodenum.

ABSTRACT: The cation-binding properties of the vitamin D-dependent Ca2+-binding protein from pig duodenum were investigated, mainly by flow dialysis. The protein bound two Ca2+ ions with high affinity, and Mg2+, Mn2+ and K+ were all bound competitively with Ca2+ at both sites. The sites were distinguished by their different affinities for Mn2+, the one with the higher affinity being designated A (Kd 0.61 +/- 0.02 microM) and the other B (Kd 50 +/- 6 microM). Competitive binding studies allied to fluorimetric titration with Mg2+ showed that site A bound Ca2+, Mg2+ and K+ with Kd values of 4.7 +/- 0.8 nM, 94 +/- 18 microM and 1.6 +/- 0.3 mM respectively, and site B bound the same three cations with Kd values of 6.3 +/- 1.8 nM, 127 +/- 38 microM and 2.1 +/- 0.6 mM. For the binding of these cations, therefore, there was no significant difference between the two sites. In the presence of 1 mM-Mg2+ and 150 mM-K+, both sites bound Ca2+ with an apparent Kd of 0.5 microM. The cation-binding properties were discussed relative to those of parvalbumin, troponin C and the vitamin D-dependent Ca2+-binding protein from chick duodenum.

A monoclonal antibody to the calmodulin-binding (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-dependent ATPase from pig stomach smooth muscle inhibits plasmalemmal (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-dependent ATPase activity.

Project description:A monoclonal antibody (2B3) directed against the calmodulin-binding (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-dependent ATPase from pig stomach smooth muscle was prepared. This antibody reacts with a 130,000-Mr protein that co-migrates on SDS/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis with the calmodulin-binding (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase purified from smooth muscle by calmodulin affinity chromatography. The antibody causes partial inhibition of the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity in plasma membranes from pig stomach smooth muscle, in pig erythrocytes and human erythrocytes. It appears to be directed against a specific functionally important site of the plasmalemmal Ca2+-transport ATPase and acts as a competitive inhibitor of ATP binding. Binding of the antibody does not change the Km of the ATPase for Ca2+ and its inhibitory effect is not altered by the presence of calmodulin. No inhibition of (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity or of the oxalate-stimulated Ca2+ uptake was observed in a pig smooth-muscle vesicle preparation enriched in endoplasmic reticulum. These results confirm the existence in smooth muscle of two different types of Ca2+-transport ATPase: a calmodulin-binding (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase located in the plasma membrane and a second one confined to the endoplasmic reticulum.

Protein phosphatase Mg2+/Mn2+ dependent 1F promotes smoking-induced breast cancer by inactivating phosphorylated-p53-induced signals.

Project description:We previously demonstrated that the activation of α9-nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α9-nAchR) signaling by smoking promotes breast cancer formation. To investigate the downstream signaling molecules involved in α9-nAChR-induced breast tumorigenesis, we used real-time polymerase chain reactions and Western blotting to assess expression of protein phosphatase Mg2+/Mn2+ dependent 1F (PPM1F), a Ser/Thr protein phosphatase, in human breast cancer samples (n=167). Additionally, stable PPM1F-knockdown and -overexpressing cell lines were established to evaluate the function of PPM1F. The phosphatase activity of PPM1F in nicotine-treated cells was assessed through Western blotting, confocal microscopy, and fluorescence resonance energy transfer. Higher levels of PPM1F were detected in the breast cancer tissues of heavy smokers (n=7, 12.8-fold) greater than of non-smokers (n= 28, 6.3-fold) (**p=0.01). In vitro, nicotine induced PPM1F expression, whereas α9-nAChR knockdown reduced the protein expression of PPM1F. A series of biochemical experiments using nicotine-treated cells suggested that the dephosphorylation of p53 (Ser-20) and BAX (Ser-184) by PPM1F is a critical posttranslational modification, as observed in breast cancer patients who were heavy smokers. These observations indicate that PPM1F may be a mediator downstream of α9-nAChR that activates smoking-induced carcinogenic signals. Thus, PPM1F expression could be used for prognostic diagnosis or inhibited for cancer prevention and therapy.

Potentiality of Protein phosphatase Mg2+ /Mn2+ dependent 1D as a biomarker for predicting prognosis in acute myeloid leukemia patients.

Project description:OBJECTIVE:The present study aimed to investigate the correlation of protein phosphatase Mg2+ /Mn2+ dependent 1D (PPM1D) with the risk stratification, treatment response, and survival profile in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. METHODS:Totally 221 de novo AML patients and 50 healthy donors were enrolled. The bone marrow samples were collected before treatment from AML patients and acquired after enrollment from healthy donors. And bone marrow mononuclear cells were separated for detecting the mRNA/protein expressions of PPM1D by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction and Western blot. Complete remission (CR) was assessed after induction treatment, and event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) were calculated in AML patients. RESULTS:PPM1D mRNA (P < .001)/protein (P < .001) relative expressions were increased in AML patients compared with healthy donors, and receiver operating characteristic curve presented that PPM1D mRNA (AUC: 0.728, 95% CI: 0.651-0.806)/protein (AUC: 0.782, 95% CI: 0.707-0.857) relative expressions could differentiate AML patients from healthy donors. In AML patients, PPM1D mRNA (P < .001)/protein (P < .001) high relative expressions were correlated with poor-risk stratification. As for its association with prognosis, PPM1D mRNA (P < .001)/protein (P = .010) relative expressions were elevated in CR patients compared with non-CR patients. Patients with PPM1D mRNA (P < .001 for EFS; P = .004 for OS)/protein (P < .001 for EFS; P = .006 for OS) high relative expressions exhibited reduced EFS and OS compared with those with low expressions. CONCLUSION:PPM1D high expression correlates with poor-risk stratification and might serve as a potential biomarker for worse prognosis in AML patients, suggesting its potential to guide AML management.

Protein phosphatase, Mg2+/Mn2+-dependent 1A controls the innate antiviral and antibacterial response of macrophages during HIV-1 and Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection.

Project description:Co-infection with HIV-1 and Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is a major public health issue. While some research has described how each pathogen accelerates the course of infection of the other pathogen by compromising the immune system, very little is known about the molecular biology of HIV-1/Mtb co-infection at the host cell level. This is somewhat surprising, as both pathogens are known to replicate and persist in macrophages. We here identify Protein Phosphatase, Mg2+/Mn2+-dependent 1A (PPM1A) as a molecular link between Mtb infection and increased HIV-1 susceptibility of macrophages. We demonstrate that both Mtb and HIV-1 infection induce the expression of PPM1A in primary human monocyte/macrophages and THP-1 cells. Genetic manipulation studies revealed that increased PPMA1 expression rendered THP-1 cells highly susceptible to HIV-1 infection, while depletion of PPM1A rendered them relatively resistant to HIV-1 infection. At the same time, increased PPM1A expression abrogated the ability of THP-1 cells to respond to relevant bacterial stimuli with a proper cytokine/chemokine secretion response, blocked their chemotactic response and impaired their ability to phagocytose bacteria. These data suggest that PPM1A, which had previously been shown to play a role in the antiviral response to Herpes Simplex virus infection, also governs the antibacterial response of macrophages to bacteria, or at least to Mtb infection. PPM1A thus seems to play a central role in the innate immune response of macrophages, implying that host directed therapies targeting PPM1A could be highly beneficial, in particular for HIV/Mtb co-infected patients.

Effects of Mg2+, Ca2+ and Mn2+ on sheep liver cytoplasmic aldehyde dehydrogenase.

Project description:Sheep liver cytoplasmic aldehyde dehydrogenase is strongly inhibited by Mg2+, Ca2+ and Mn2+. The inhibition is only partial, however, with 8-15% of activity remaining at high concentrations of these agents. In 50 mM-Tris/Hcl, pH 7.5, the concentrations giving half-maximal effect were: Mg2+, 6.5 micrometers; Ca2+, 15.2 micrometers; Mn2+, 1.5 micrometer. The esterase activity of the enzyme is not affected by such low metal ion concentrations, but appears to be activated by high concentrations. Fluorescence-titration and stopped-flow experiments provide evidence for interaction of Mg2+ with NADH complexes of the enzyme. As no evidence for the presence of increased concentrations of functioning active centres was obtained in the presence of Mg2+, it is concluded that effects of Mg2+ (and presumably Ca2+ and Mn2+ also) are brought about by trapping increased concentrations of NADH in a Mg2+-containing complex. This complex must liberate products more slowly than any of the complexes involved in the non-inhibited mechanism.

Na+ channel regulation by Ca2+/calmodulin and Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II in guinea-pig ventricular myocytes.

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.

Investigation of the forms of pig duodenal Ca2+-binding protein produced by limited tryptic hydrolysis.

Project description:Vitamin D-dependent Ca2+-binding protein from pig duodenum was hydrolysed with trypsin in the presence of Ca2+ and two products were obtained: T1, which differed from the native protein by loss of Ac-Ser-Ala-Gln-Lys from the N-terminus and Ile-Ser-Gln-OH from the C-terminus, and T2, which differed from T1 by loss of a C-terminal lysine. The hydrolysis inactivated one of the two high-affinity Ca2+-binding sites on the native protein, and the remaining site was stable in T1 but labile in T2 when the proteins were Ca2+-free. Binding studies showed that T1 had Kd values of 2.8 +/- 0.1 nM, 57 +/- 13 microM and 0.8 +/- 0.3 microM for Ca2+, Mg2+ and Mn2+ respectively, and T2 had Kd 2.2 +/- 0.3 nM for Ca2+. The affinity for Mn2+, together with the other Kd values, identified the site on T1 as the site on the native protein previously found to have Kd 0.6 microM for Mn2+, rather than one with Kd 50 microM for Mn2+. In contrast with both the native protein and another form of the protein with a single Ca2+-binding site, the intrinsic fluorescence of T1 and T2 was little affected by the addition of Ca2+. It was concluded that the active binding site in T1 and T2, and also the site in the native protein with the higher affinity for Mn2+, was probably in the C-terminal half of the molecule.

Partial purification of (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-dependent ATPase from pig smooth muscle and reconstitution of an ATP-dependent Ca2+-transport system.

Project description:(CaMg)ATPase [(Ca2+ + Mg2+)-dependent ATPase] was partially purified from a microsomal fraction of the smooth muscle of the pig stomach (antrum). Membranes were solubilized with deoxycholate, followed by removal of the detergent by dialysis. The purified (CaMg)ATPase has a specific activity (at 37 degrees C) of 157 +/- 12.1 (7)nmol.min-1.mg-1 of protein, and it is stimulated by calmodulin to 255 +/- 20.9 (7)nmol.min.mg-1. This purification of the (CaMg)ATPase resulted in an increase of the specific activity by approx. 18-fold and in a recovery of the total enzyme activity of 55% compared with the microsomal fraction. The partially purified (CaMg)ATPase still contains some Mg2+-and (Na+ + K+)-dependent ATPase activities, but their specific activities are increased relatively less than that of the (CaMg)ATPase. The ratios of the (CaMg)ATPase to Mg2+- and (Na+ + K+)-dependent ATPase activities increase from respectively 0.14 and 0.81 in the crude microsomal fraction to 1.39 and 9.07 in the purified preparation. During removal of the deoxycholate by dialysis, vesicles were reconstituted which were capable of ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport.

DT40 cells lacking the Ca2+-binding protein annexin 5 are resistant to Ca2+-dependent apoptosis.

Project description:Annexins are widely expressed Ca(2+)-dependent phospholipid-binding proteins with poorly understood physiological roles. Proposed functions include Ca(2+) channel activity and vesicle trafficking, but neither have been proven in vivo. Here we used targeted gene disruption to generate B-lymphocytes lacking annexin 5 (Anx5) expression and show that this results in reduced susceptibility to a range of apoptotic stimuli. By comparison B-lymphocytes lacking annexin 2 (Anx2) showed no such resistance, providing evidence that this effect is specific to loss of Anx5. The defect in the ANX5(-/-) cells occurs early in the apoptotic program before nuclear condensation, caspase 3 activation, and cell shrinkage, but downstream of an initial Ca(2+) influx. Only UVA/B irradiation induced similar levels of apoptosis in wild-type and ANX5(-/-) cells. Unexpectedly, ANX5(-/-) cells permeabilized in vitro also failed to release mitochondrial cytochrome C, suggesting a possible mechanism for their resistance to apoptosis. These findings demonstrate a role for Anx5 in determining the susceptibility of B-lymphocytes to apoptosis.
