Anion/calcium ion ratios and proton production in some mitochondrial calcium ion uptakes.

ABSTRACT: The uptake of Ca2+ by liver mitochondria, when phosphate movement is inhibited, occurs when Co2 is present and not in its absence. Uptake of Ca2+ to form CaCO3 yields 2H+/Ca2+. Heart mitochondria, when phosphate movement is inhibited, will take up Ca2+ with the exact equivalent of hydroxybutyrate, lactate or acetate. By providing a carrier for Cl- with tributyltin, a stoicheiometric uptake of Cl- with the Ca2+ takes place. The uptakes appear to occur without significant pH change; there appears to be no CO2-dependent uptake into heart mitochondria. Oxygenation of anaerobic heart mitochondria, in the presence of an inhibitor of phosphate movement and of generation of phosphate from internal ATP, does not yield significant change of external acidity in relation to the amount of O2 added. Use of Bromothymol Blue as an indicator of the distribution of a weak acid anion confirms that the transient nature of the response of the dye distribution to Ca2+ is connected with movement of endogenous phosphate. Bromothymol Blue accumulated in response to Ca2+ is discharged when entry of the Ca2+ (in the presence of mersalyl) is mediated with nigericin. It is concluded that Ca2+ uptakes will occur alternatively with the equivalent of anions or in exchange for endogenous K+ and that proton production is connected with the changes of ionization of phosphate (unless phosphate movement is inhibited) and in liver mitochondria with the hydration of CO2.

Calcium ion-induced uptakes and transormations of substrates in liver mitochondria.

Project description:Substrate-depleted rat liver mitochondria will reaccumulate malate, succinate, oxoglutarate, beta-hydroxybutyrate and glutamate if provided with an energy source and Ca(2+) (or Ca(2+) and Mn(2+)). The energy requirement for ion uptake by fresh mitochondria causes a transient oxidation of their NADH and presumably this leads to an increased oxaloacetate concentration. A consequence is the promotion of formation of citrate, which tends to remain in the particles, provided the pH is above 7. Analyses made of systems blocked with fluorocitrate show that citrate accumulates when Ca(2+) is added with the following substrates; (a) pyruvate in the presence of ATP or malate, (b) palmitoyl-l(-)-carnitine in presence of malate and (c) oxoglutarate. Lowering the pH, even to 6.8, causes the citrate to emerge. This could be the basis of a cellular control mechanism. The generation of citrate in response to Ca(2+) can explain the stoichiometry of one proton ejected per Ca(2+) ion taken up. The new carboxyl group formed from acetyl-CoA when it condenses with oxaloacetate provides an internal anionic charge and a proton to emerge when Ca(2+) enters.

Anion- and proton-dependent gating of ClC-4 anion/proton transporter under uncoupling conditions.

Project description:ClC-4 is a secondary active transporter that exchanges Cl(-) ions and H(+) with a 2:1 stoichiometry. In external SCN(-), ClC-4 becomes uncoupled and transports anions with high unitary transport rate. Upon voltage steps, the number of active transporters varies in a time-dependent manner, resembling voltage-dependent gating of ion channels. We here investigated modification of the voltage dependence of uncoupled ClC-4 by protons and anions to quantify association of substrates with the transporter. External acidification shifts voltage dependence of ClC-4 transport to more positive potentials and leads to reduced transport currents. Internal pH changes had less pronounced effects. Uncoupled ClC-4 transport is facilitated by elevated external [SCN(-)] but impaired by internal Cl(-) and I(-). Block by internal anions indicates the existence of an internal anion-binding site with high affinity that is not present in ClC channels. The voltage dependence of ClC-4 coupled transport is modulated by external protons and internal Cl(-) in a manner similar to what is observed under uncoupling conditions. Our data illustrate functional differences but also similarities between ClC channels and transporters.

Dynamic regulation of the mitochondrial proton gradient during cytosolic calcium elevations.

Project description:Mitochondria extrude protons across their inner membrane to generate the mitochondrial membrane potential (??(m)) and pH gradient (?pH(m)) that both power ATP synthesis. Mitochondrial uptake and efflux of many ions and metabolites are driven exclusively by ?pH(m), whose in situ regulation is poorly characterized. Here, we report the first dynamic measurements of ?pH(m) in living cells, using a mitochondrially targeted, pH-sensitive YFP (SypHer) combined with a cytosolic pH indicator (5-(and 6)-carboxy-SNARF-1). The resting matrix pH (?7.6) and ?pH(m) (?0.45) of HeLa cells at 37 °C were lower than previously reported. Unexpectedly, mitochondrial pH and ?pH(m) decreased during cytosolic Ca(2+) elevations. The drop in matrix pH was due to cytosolic acid generated by plasma membrane Ca(2+)-ATPases and transmitted to mitochondria by P(i)/H(+) symport and K(+)/H(+) exchange, whereas the decrease in ?pH(m) reflected the low H(+)-buffering power of mitochondria (?5 mm, pH 7.8) compared with the cytosol (?20 mm, pH 7.4). Upon agonist washout and restoration of cytosolic Ca(2+) and pH, mitochondria alkalinized and ?pH(m) increased. In permeabilized cells, a decrease in bath pH from 7.4 to 7.2 rapidly decreased mitochondrial pH, whereas the addition of 10 ?m Ca(2+) caused a delayed and smaller alkalinization. These findings indicate that the mitochondrial matrix pH and ?pH(m) are regulated by opposing Ca(2+)-dependent processes of stimulated mitochondrial respiration and cytosolic acidification.

Proton transfer pathway in anion channelrhodopsin-1.

Project description:Anion channelrhodopsin from Guillardia theta (GtACR1) has Asp234 (3.2 Å) and Glu68 (5.3 Å) near the protonated Schiff base. Here, we investigate mutant GtACR1s (e.g., E68Q/D234N) expressed in HEK293 cells. The influence of the acidic residues on the absorption wavelengths was also analyzed using a quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical approach. The calculated protonation pattern indicates that Asp234 is deprotonated and Glu68 is protonated in the original crystal structures. The D234E mutation and the E68Q/D234N mutation shorten and lengthen the measured and calculated absorption wavelengths, respectively, which suggests that Asp234 is deprotonated in the wild-type GtACR1. Molecular dynamics simulations show that upon mutation of deprotonated Asp234 to asparagine, deprotonated Glu68 reorients toward the Schiff base and the calculated absorption wavelength remains unchanged. The formation of the proton transfer pathway via Asp234 toward Glu68 and the disconnection of the anion conducting channel are likely a basis of the gating mechanism.

Ion and inhibitor binding of the double-ring ion selectivity filter of the mitochondrial calcium uniporter.

Project description:The calcium (Ca2+) uniporter of mitochondria is a holocomplex consisting of the Ca2+-conducting channel, known as mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU), and several accessory and regulatory components. A previous electrophysiology study found that the uniporter has high Ca2+ selectivity and conductance and this depends critically on the conserved amino acid sequence motif, DXXE (Asp-X-X-Glu) of MCU. A recent NMR structure of the MCU channel from Caenorhabditis elegans revealed that the DXXE forms two parallel carboxylate rings at the channel entrance that seem to serve as the ion selectivity filter, although direct ion interaction of this structural motif has not been addressed. Here, we use a paramagnetic probe, manganese (Mn2+), to investigate ion and inhibitor binding of this putative selectivity filter. Our paramagnetic NMR data show that mutants with a single carboxylate ring, NXXE (Asn-X-X-Glu) and DXXQ (Asp-X-X-Gln), each can bind Mn2+ specifically, whereas in the WT the two rings bind Mn2+ cooperatively, resulting in ∼1,000-fold higher apparent affinity. Ca2+ can specifically displace the bound Mn2+ at the DXXE site in the channel. Furthermore, titrating the sample with the known channel inhibitor ruthenium 360 (Ru360) can displace Mn2+ binding from the solvent-accessible Asp site but not the inner Glu site. The NMR titration data, together with structural analysis of the DXXE motif and molecular dynamics simulation, indicate that the double carboxylate rings at the apex of the MCU pore constitute the ion selectivity filter and that Ru360 directly blocks ion entry into the filter by binding to the outer carboxylate ring.

Influential Mechanism of Natural Organic Matters with Calcium Ion on the Anion Exchange Membrane Fouling Behavior via xDLVO Theory.

Project description:The fouling mechanism of the anion exchange membrane (AEM) induced by natural organic matter (NOM) in the absence and presence of calcium ions was systematically investigated via the extended Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek (xDLVO) approach. Sodium alginate (SA), humic acid (HA), and bovine serum albumin (BSA) were utilized as model NOM fractions. The results indicated that the presence of calcium ions tremendously aggravated the NOM fouling on the anion exchange membrane because of Ca-NOM complex formation. Furthermore, analysis of the interaction energy between the membrane surface and foulants via xDLVO revealed that short-range acid-base (AB) interaction energy played a significant role in the compositions of interaction energy during the electrodialysis (ED) process. The influence of NOM fractions in the presence of calcium ions on membrane fouling followed the order: SA > BSA > HA. This study demonstrated that the interaction energy was a dominating indicator for evaluating the tendency of anion exchange membranes fouling by natural organic matter.

Nutritional Calcium Supply Dependent Calcium Balance, Bone Calcification and Calcium Isotope Ratios in Rats

Project description:Serum calcium isotopes (δ44/42Ca) have been suggested as a non-invasive and sensitive Ca balance marker. Quantitative δ44/42Ca changes associated with Ca flux across body compartment barriers relative to the dietary Ca and the correlation of δ44/42CaSerum with bone histology are unknown. We analyzed Ca and δ44/42Ca by mass-spectrometry in rats after two weeks of standard-Ca-diet (0.5%) and after four subsequent weeks of standard- and of low-Ca-diet (0.25%). In animals on a low-Ca-diet net Ca gain was 61 ± 3% and femur Ca content 68 ± 41% of standard-Ca-diet, bone mineralized area per section area was 68 ± 15% compared to standard-Ca-diet. δ44/42Ca was similar in the diets, and decreased in feces and urine and increased in serum in animals on low-Ca-diet. δ44/42CaBone was higher in animals on low-Ca-diet, lower in the diaphysis than the metaphysis and epiphysis, and unaffected by gender. Independent of diet, δ44/42CaBone was similar in the femora and ribs. At the time of sacrifice, δ44/42CaSerum inversely correlated with intestinal Ca uptake and histological bone mineralization markers, but not with Ca content and bone mineral density by µCT. In conclusion, δ44/42CaBone was bone site specific, but mechanical stress and gender independent. Low-Ca-diet induced marked changes in feces, serum and urine δ44/42Ca in growing rats. δ44/42CaSerum inversely correlated with markers of bone mineralization.

Metabolic energy sensing by mammalian CLC anion/proton exchangers.

Project description:CLC anion/proton exchangers control the pH and [Cl- ] of the endolysosomal system that is essential for cellular nutrient uptake. Here, we use heterologous expression and whole-cell electrophysiology to investigate the regulation of the CLC isoforms ClC-3, ClC-4, and ClC-5 by the adenylic system components ATP, ADP, and AMP. Our results show that cytosolic ATP and ADP but not AMP and Mg2+ -free ADP enhance CLC ion transport. Biophysical analysis reveals that adenine nucleotides alter the ratio between CLC ion transport and CLC gating charge and shift the CLC voltage-dependent activation. The latter effect is suppressed by blocking the intracellular entrance of the proton transport pathway. We suggest, therefore, that adenine nucleotides regulate the internal proton delivery into the CLC transporter machinery and alter the probability of CLC transporters to undergo silent non-transporting cycles. Our findings suggest that the CBS domains in mammalian CLC transporters serve as energy sensors that regulate vesicular Cl- /H+ exchange by detecting changes in the cytosolic ATP/ADP/AMP equilibrium. Such sensing mechanism links the endolysosomal activity to the cellular metabolic state.
