Purification and functional characterization of a low-molecular-mass Ca2+,Mg2+- and Ca2+-ATPase modulator protein from rat brain cytosol.

ABSTRACT: A low-molecular-mass modulator protein having a molecular mass of about 12 kDa has been purified from rat brain cytosol following gel filtration and FPLC/Mono Q anion-exchange chromatographic separation. A number of protein fractions were obtained from an FPLC column when eluted with a 0.1 M NaCl hold gradient. One fraction (peak no. 5) was found to stimulate Ca2+,Mg2+-ATPase but inhibit Ca2+-ATPase isolated from goat spermatozoa. The S50 (concentration producing 50% stimulation) and I50 were found to be in the nanomolar range. The modulator seems to bind to Ca2+, Mg2+- or Ca2+-ATPase at a site distal from the ATP binding site. The binding to both the ATPases is reversible and non-competitive in nature. The inhibitory activity is found to depend significantly on -SH or -NH2 group(s) of the modulator, whereas no appreciable dependency of the stimulatory effect was apparent. The study indicates that the modulator is not a glycoprotein. CD analysis suggests that the protein exists as an unordered secondary structure. An immuno-cross-reactivity study with specific antibody and inhibition by thapsigargin suggests that the Ca2+,Mg2+- and Ca2+-ATPases from goat testes microsomal membranes are two isoforms of the sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic-reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) family. The modulator does not contain any Trp molecules, as evident from Trp fluorescence analysis. Amino acid analysis shows that glycine, serine, derivatives of tyrosine and phenylalanine are the predominant amino acids. The data suggest that the modulator is a negatively charged protein and is a good tool for distinguishing the regulation of Ca2+,Mg2+- and Ca2+-ATPase activities.

Purification of the Ca2+-and Mg2+-requiring ATPase from rat brain synaptic plasma membrane.

Project description:A Ca2+-ATPase (Ca2+- and Mg2+-requiring ATPase) was purified from a synaptic plasma-membrane fraction of rat brain. This enzyme had properties similar to those of plasma-membrane Ca2+-ATPases from other organs: its splitting of ATP was dependent on both Ca2+ and Mg2+, it bound in a Ca2+-dependent fashion to calmodulin-Sepharose and it cross-reacted with specific antibodies raised against human erythrocyte-membrane Ca2+-ATPase. It had an apparent Mr of 138 000, similar to those of plasma-membrane ATPases from human erythrocyte and from dog heart sarcolemma. Previous high-Ca2+-affinity ATPases observed in brain had Mr 100 000; in at least one case, such an ATPase probably represented a different type of enzyme, derived from coated vesicles.

Ca2+ and Mg2+ modulate conformational dynamics and stability of downstream regulatory element antagonist modulator.

Project description:Downstream Regulatory Element Antagonist Modulator (DREAM) belongs to the family of neuronal calcium sensors (NCS) that transduce the intracellular changes in Ca(2+) concentration into a variety of responses including gene expression, regulation of Kv channel activity, and calcium homeostasis. Despite the significant sequence and structural similarities with other NCS members, DREAM shows several features unique among NCS such as formation of a tetramer in the apo-state, and interactions with various intracellular biomacromolecules including DNA, presenilin, Kv channels, and calmodulin. Here we use spectroscopic techniques in combination with molecular dynamics simulation to study conformational changes induced by Ca(2+) /Mg(2+) association to DREAM. Our data indicate a minor impact of Ca(2+) association on the overall structure of the N- and C-terminal domains, although Ca(2+) binding decreases the conformational heterogeneity as evident from the decrease in the fluorescence lifetime distribution in the Ca(2+) bound forms of the protein. Time-resolved fluorescence data indicate that Ca(2+) binding triggers a conformational transition that is characterized by more efficient quenching of Trp residue. The unfolding of DREAM occurs through an partially unfolded intermediate that is stabilized by Ca(2+) association to EF-hand 3 and EF-hand 4. The native state is stabilized with respect to the partially unfolded state only in the presence of both Ca(2+) and Mg(2+) suggesting that, under physiological conditions, Ca(2+) free DREAM exhibits a high conformational flexibility that may facilitate its physiological functions.

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.

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.

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.

Conformational transitions in the Ca2+ + Mg2+-activated ATPase and the binding of Ca2+ ions.

Project description:We have studied the fluorescence of the Ca2+ + Mg2+-activated ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum labelled with fluorescein isothiocyanate. The change in intensity of fluorescein fluorescence caused by addition of Ca2+ to the labelled ATPase can be interpreted in terms of a two-conformation model for the ATPase, one conformation (E1) having a high affinity for Ca2+, the other (E2) a low affinity. Effects of Ca2+ as a function of pH allow an estimate of the effect of pH on the E1/E2 ratio, consistent with kinetic studies. A model is presented for binding of Ca2+ to the ATPase as a function of pH that is consistent both with the data on the E1/E2 equilibrium and with literature data on Ca2+ binding.

Transcription profiling of PhoP-regulon members under low Mg2+ Ca2+ condition of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae PXO99A

Project description:In bacteria, two-component regulatory system (TCSs) is generally characterized by a simple phosphotransfer scheme, composed of a sensor domain (a histidine kinase) and a response domain (a response regulator), which is responsible for detection of external stimuli. PhoP-PhoQ TCS of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), a causal agent of bacterial leaf blight disease in rice, was previously shown to be negatively regulated by RaxR-RaxH, another TCS that senses population cell density as well as modulates the activity of AvrXA21, a bacterial effector, recognized by a bacterial blight resistance gene, Xa21. In this work, whole-genome microarray was performed to analyze transcription profiling and identify member of PhoP regulon under Mg2+ and Ca2+ limited condition. This analysis revealed that PhoP governs broad cellular pathways including stress defense response, cation transportation, general metabolism, broad regulatory system, bacterial motility, and bacterial virulence. Array results provide a set of candidate genes, further biochemical pathway analysis, and signaling pathway crosstalks that need to be characterized to understand PhoP-dependent mechanisms and also suggest a putative regulatory loop between two phoP-phoQ and raxR-raxH TCSs. Implication of this analysis suggested that Xoo adopt PhoP-PhoQ system to perceive extracellular signals from certain environment such as low concentration of metal ions, and to regulate intracellular signals of other regulatory systems.

The (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-stimulated ATPase of the rat parotid endoplasmic reticulum.

Project description:A membrane fraction enriched in endoplasmic reticulum was prepared from rat parotid glands by using sucrose-gradient centrifugation. The fraction showed a 10-fold increase in specific activity of NADPH: cytochrome c reductase activity over that of tissue homogenates and minimal contamination with plasma membranes or mitochondria. The endoplasmic reticulum fraction possessed both Mg2+ -stimulated ATPase as well as Ca2+, Mg2+-ATPase [( Ca2+ + Mg2+)-stimulated ATPase]activity. The Ca2+, Mg2+-ATPase required 2-5 mM-Mg2+ for optimal activity and was stimulated by submicromolar concentrations of free Ca2+. The Km for free Ca2+ was 0.55 microM and the average Vmax. was 60 nmol/min per mg of protein. The Km for ATP was 0.11 mM. Other nucleotides, such as GTP, CTP or ADP, could not substitute for ATP in supporting the Ca2+-activated nucleotidase activity. Increasing the K+ concentration from 0 to 100 mM caused a 2-fold activation of the Ca2+, Mg2+-ATPase. Trifluoperazine, W7 [N-(6-aminohexyl)-5-chloronaphthalene-1-sulphonamide] and vanadate inhibited the enzyme. The concentration of trifluoperazine and vanadate required for 50% inhibition of the ATPase were 52 microM and 28 microM respectively. Calmodulin, cyclic AMP, cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate had no effect on the ATPase. The properties of the Ca2+, Mg2+ -ATPase were distinct from those of the Mg2+-ATPase, but comparable with those reported for the parotid endoplasmic-reticulum Ca2+-transport system [Kanagasuntheram & Teo (1982) Biochem. J. 208, 789-794]. The results suggest that the Ca2+, Mg2+-ATPase is responsible for driving the ATP-dependent Ca2+ accumulation by this membrane.

Luminal dissociation of Ca2+ from the phosphorylated Ca2+-ATPase is sequential and gated by Mg2+.

Project description:Transport of Ca2+ across the membrane by the Ca2+-ATPase of skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum involves the transfer of two Ca2+ ions from a pair of cytoplasmic sites to a pair of luminal sites, driven by phosphorylation of the ATPase. The ATPase is inhibited by Mg2+ at alkaline pH values. Inhibition follows from a decrease in the rate of release of Ca2+ from the phosphorylated ATPase. Phosphorylation-induced release of Ca2+ from the ATPase is biphasic at alkaline pH, which is consistent with sequential release of Ca2+ from the phosphorylated ATPase; the rates of both components decrease with increasing Mg concentration. The effect of Mg2+ on the slow phase of release follows from the binding of Mg2+ at the empty outer luminal site, vacated by the release of the first Ca2+ ion. The effect of Mg2+ on the rate of release of the first Ca2+ ion could follow from binding to a gating site also affecting the binding of Ca2+ to the cytoplasmic sites.
