Sarco/endoplasmic-reticulum calcium ATPase SERCA1 is maintained in the endoplasmic reticulum by a retrieval signal located between residues 1 and 211.

ABSTRACT: The location of sarco/endoplasmic-reticulum calcium ATPase (SERCA) retention/retrieval motifs in the sequence of the SERCA1 has been investigated by examining the subcellular location in COS-7 cells of enhanced-green-fluorescent-protein-tagged calcium-pump chimaeras. These chimaeras have been constructed from the fast-twitch SERCA1 and the plasma-membrane calcium ATPase PMCA3. The N-terminal, central and C-terminal segments of these calcium pumps were exchanged between SERCA1 and PMCA3. The segments exchanged correspond to residues 1-211, 212-711 and 712-994 of SERCA1, and residues 1-264, 265-788 and 789-1159 of PMCA3 respectively. Only chimaeras containing the N-terminal segment of SERCA1 were located in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), whereas chimaeras containing the N-terminal segment from PMCA3 were able to escape from the ER and enter the endomembrane pathway en route for the plasma membrane. Co-localization of SERCA1 in COS-7 cells with the ER/Golgi-intermediate compartment marker ERGIC53 indicates that SERCA1 is maintained in the ER by a process of retrieval. These results indicate that the N-terminal region of SERCA1, containing transmembrane helices M1 and M2, contains an ER-retrieval signal.

Sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) activity is required for V(D)J recombination.

Project description:A whole-genome CRISPR/Cas9 screen identified ATP2A2, the gene encoding the Sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) 2 protein, as being important for V(D)J recombination. SERCAs are ER transmembrane proteins that pump Ca2+ from the cytosol into the ER lumen to maintain the ER Ca2+ reservoir and regulate cytosolic Ca2+-dependent processes. In preB cells, loss of SERCA2 leads to reduced V(D)J recombination kinetics due to diminished RAG-mediated DNA cleavage. SERCA2 deficiency in B cells leads to increased expression of SERCA3, and combined loss of SERCA2 and SERCA3 results in decreased ER Ca2+ levels, increased cytosolic Ca2+ levels, reduction in RAG1 and RAG2 gene expression, and a profound block in V(D)J recombination. Mice with B cells deficient in SERCA2 and humans with Darier disease, caused by heterozygous ATP2A2 mutations, have reduced numbers of mature B cells. We conclude that SERCA proteins modulate intracellular Ca2+ levels to regulate RAG1 and RAG2 gene expression and V(D)J recombination and that defects in SERCA functions cause lymphopenia.

Cloning of sarco-endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ -ATPase (SERCA) from Caribbean spiny lobster Panulirus argus.

Project description:We have previously reported on calcium transport mechanisms in American lobster, Homarus americanus, using (45)Ca(2+) coupled with vesicle preparations of hepatopancreatic endoplasmic reticulum. The active transport of calcium across membranes bordering calcium-sequestering stores such as sarcoplasmic or endoplasmic reticulum is catalyzed by membrane-spanning proteins, the sarco-endoplasmic Ca(2+)-ATPases (SERCAs). In the study described here we used advanced bioinformatics and molecular techniques to clone SERCA from the economically important Caribbean spiny lobster, Panulirus argus. We report the complete cloning of a full-length SERCA from P. argus antenna cDNA (GenBank accession number AY702617). This cDNA has a 1020-amino acid residue open reading frame which is 90% identical to published sequences of other crustacean SERCA proteins. Our data support the hypothesis that one crustacean and three vertebrate genes controlling calcium transport were derived from a common ancestral gene.

Intracellular alkalinization induces cytosolic Ca2+ increases by inhibiting sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA).

Project description:Intracellular pH (pHi) and Ca(2+) regulate essentially all aspects of cellular activities. Their inter-relationship has not been mechanistically explored. In this study, we used bases and acetic acid to manipulate the pHi. We found that transient pHi rise induced by both organic and inorganic bases, but not acidification induced by acid, produced elevation of cytosolic Ca(2+). The sources of the Ca(2+) increase are from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca(2+) pools as well as from Ca(2+) influx. The store-mobilization component of the Ca(2+) increase induced by the pHi rise was not sensitive to antagonists for either IP(3)-receptors or ryanodine receptors, but was due to inhibition of the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA), leading to depletion of the ER Ca(2+) store. We further showed that the physiological consequence of depletion of the ER Ca(2+) store by pHi rise is the activation of store-operated channels (SOCs) of Orai1 and Stim1, leading to increased Ca(2+) influx. Taken together, our results indicate that intracellular alkalinization inhibits SERCA activity, similar to thapsigargin, thereby resulting in Ca(2+) leak from ER pools followed by Ca(2+) influx via SOCs.

Sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase isoforms: diverse responses to acidosis.

Project description:The effects of acidic pH on the kinetics of Ca2+-ATPase isoforms from intracellular membranes of skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle, cerebellum and blood platelets were studied. At neutral pH, all four Ca2+-ATPase isoforms exhibited similar Ca2+-concentration requirements for half-maximal rates of Ca2+ uptake and ATP hydrolysis. A decrease in the pH from 7.0 to 6.0 promoted a decrease in both the apparent affinity for Ca2+ [increasing half-maximal activation (K0.5)] and the maximal velocity (Vmax) of Ca2+ uptake. With skeletal muscle vesicles these effect were 5 to 10 times smaller than those observed with all the other isoforms. Acidification of the medium from pH 7.0 to 6.5 caused the release of Ca2+ from loaded vesicles and a decrease in the amount of Ca2+ retained by the vesicles at the steady state. With the vesicles derived from skeletal muscle these effects were smaller than for vesicles derived from other tissues. The rate of passive Ca2+ efflux from skeletal and cardiac muscle vesicles, loaded with Ca2+ and diluted in a medium containing none of the ligands of Ca2+-ATPase, was the same at pH 7.0 and 6.0. In contrast, the rate of Ca2+ efflux from cerebellar and platelet vesicles increased 2-fold after acidification of the medium. The effects of DMSO, Mg2+ with Pi and arsenate on the rate of Ca2+ efflux varied among the different preparations tested. The differences became more pronounced when the pH of the medium was decreased from 7.0 to 6.0. It is proposed that the kinetic differences among the Ca2+-ATPase isoforms may reflect different adaptations to cellular acidosis, such as that which occurs during ischaemia.

Diminished sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase (SERCA) expression contributes to airway remodelling in bronchial asthma.

Project description:Phenotypic modulation of airway smooth muscle (ASM) is an important feature of airway remodeling in asthma that is characterized by enhanced proliferation and secretion of pro-inflammatory chemokines. These activities are regulated by the concentration of free Ca(2+) in the cytosol ([Ca(2+)](i)). A rise in [Ca(2+)](i) is normalized by rapid reuptake of Ca(2+) into sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) stores by the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) (SERCA) pump. We examined whether increased proliferative and secretory responses of ASM from asthmatics result from reduced SERCA expression. ASM cells were cultured from subjects with and without asthma. SERCA expression was evaluated by western blot, immunohistochemistry and real-time PCR. Changes in [Ca(2+)](i), cell spreading, cellular proliferation, and eotaxin-1 release were measured. Compared with control cells from healthy subjects, SERCA2 mRNA and protein expression was reduced in ASM cells from subjects with moderately severe asthma. SERCA2 expression was similarly reduced in ASM in vivo in subjects with moderate/severe asthma. Rises in [Ca(2+)](i) following cell surface receptor-induced SR activation, or inhibition of SERCA-mediated Ca(2+) re-uptake, were attenuated in ASM cells from asthmatics. Likewise, the return to baseline of [Ca](i) after stimulation by bradykinin was delayed by approximately 50% in ASM cells from asthmatics. siRNA-mediated knockdown of SERCA2 in ASM from healthy subjects increased cell spreading, eotaxin-1 release and proliferation. Our findings implicate a deficiency in SERCA2 in ASM in asthma that contributes to its secretory and hyperproliferative phenotype in asthma, and which may play a key role in mechanisms of airway remodeling.

Astragaloside IV Attenuates Podocyte Apoptosis Mediated by Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress through Upregulating Sarco/Endoplasmic Reticulum Ca2+-ATPase 2 Expression in Diabetic Nephropathy.

Project description:Sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) plays a central role in the pathogenesis of diabetes. This protein has been recognized as a potential target for diabetic therapy. In this study, we identified astragaloside IV (AS-IV) as a potent modulator of SERCA inhibiting renal injury in diabetic status. Increasing doses of AS-IV (2, 6, and 18 mg kg-1 day-1) were administered intragastrically to db/db mice for 8 weeks. Biochemical and histopathological approaches were conducted to evaluate the therapeutic effects of AS-IV. Cultured mouse podocytes were used to further explore the underlying mechanism in vitro. AS-IV dose-dependently increased SERCA activity and SERCA2 expression, and suppressed ER stress-mediated and mitochondria-mediated apoptosis in db/db mouse kidney. AS-IV also normalized glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity, improved renal function, and ameliorated glomerulosclerosis and renal inflammation in db/db mice. In palmitate stimulated podocytes, AS-IV markedly improved inhibitions of SERCA activity and SERCA2 expression, restored intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis, and attenuated podocyte apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner with a concomitant abrogation of ER stress as evidenced by the downregulation of GRP78, cleaved ATF6, phospho-IRE1? and phospho-PERK, and the inactivation of both ER stress-mediated and mitochondria-mediated apoptotic pathways. Furthermore, SERCA2b knockdown eliminated the effect of AS-IV on ER stress and ER stress-mediated apoptotic pathway, whereas its overexpression exhibited an anti-apoptotic effect. Our data obtained from in vivo and in vitro studies demonstrate that AS-IV attenuates renal injury in diabetes subsequent to inhibiting ER stress-induced podocyte apoptosis through restoring SERCA activity and SERCA2 expression.

Intermedin protects thapsigargin?induced endoplasmic reticulum stress in cardiomyocytes by modulating protein kinase A and sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca<sup>2+</sup>?ATPase.

Project description:Intermedin (IMD) is a calcitonin/calcitonin?related peptide that elicits cardioprotective effects in a variety of heart diseases, such as cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure. However, the molecular mechanism of IMD remains unclear. The present study investigated the effects of IMD on neonatal rat ventricular myocytes treated with thapsigargin. The results of the present study demonstrated that thapsigargin induced apoptosis in cardiomyocytes in a dose? and time?dependent manner. Thapsigargin induced endoplasmic reticulum stress, as determined by increased expression levels of 78?kDa glucose?regulated protein, C/EBP?homologous protein and caspase?12, which were dose?dependently attenuated by pretreatment with IMD. In addition, IMD treatment counteracted the thapsigargin?induced suppression of sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+?ATPase (SERCA) activity and protein expression levels, and cytoplasmic Ca2+ overload. IMD treatment also augmented the phosphorylation of phospholamban, which is a crucial regulator of SERCA. Additionally, treatment with the protein kinase A antagonist H?89 inhibited the IMD?mediated cardioprotective effects, including SERCA activity restoration, anti?Ca2+ overload, endoplasmic reticulum stress inhibition and antiapoptosis effects. In conclusion, the results of the present study suggested that IMD may protect cardiomyocytes against thapsigargin?induced endoplasmic reticulum stress and the associated apoptosis at least partly by activating the protein kinase A/SERCA pathway.

Structural Changes of Sarco/Endoplasmic Reticulum Ca2+-ATPase Induced by Rutin Arachidonate: A Molecular Dynamics Study.

Project description:Sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) maintains the level of calcium concentration in cells by pumping calcium ions from the cytoplasm to the lumen while undergoing substantial conformational changes, which can be stabilized or prevented by various compounds. Here we attempted to clarify the molecular mechanism of action of new inhibitor rutin arachidonate, one of the series of the acylated rutin derivatives. We performed molecular dynamics simulations of SERCA1a protein bound to rutin arachidonate positioned in a pure dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine bilayer membrane. Our study predicted the molecular basis for the binding of rutin arachidonate towards SERCA1a in the vicinity of the binding site of calcium ions and near the location of the well-known inhibitor thapsigargin. The stable hydrogen bond between Glu771 and rutin arachidonate plays a key role in the binding. SERCA1a is kept in the E2 conformation preventing the formation of important salt bridges between the side chains of several residues, primarily Glu90 and Lys297. All in all, the structural changes induced by the binding of rutin arachidonate to SERCA1a may shift proton balance near the titrable residues Glu771 and Glu309 into neutral species, hence preventing the binding of calcium ions to the transmembrane binding sites and thus affecting calcium homeostasis. Our results could lead towards the design of new types of inhibitors, potential drug candidates for cancer treatment, which could be anchored to the transmembrane region of SERCA1a by a lipophilic fatty acid group.

SBF-1 exerts strong anticervical cancer effect through inducing endoplasmic reticulum stress-associated cell death via targeting sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase 2.

Project description:Cervical cancer is one of the most common carcinomas in the genital system. In the present study, we report that SBF-1, a synthetic steroidal glycoside, has a strong antigrowth activity against human cervical cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. SBF-1 suppressed the growth, migration and colony formation of HeLa cells. In addition, severe endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress was triggered by SBF-1, and 4-phenyl-butyric acid, a chemical chaperone, partially reversed SBF-1-induced cell death. To uncover the target protein of SBF-1, the compound was labeled with biotin. The biotin-labeled SBF-1 bound to sarco/ER Ca(2+)-ATPase 2 (SERCA2) and colocalized with SERCA2 in HeLa cells. Moreover, SBF-1 inhibited SERCA activity, depleted ER Ca2+ and increased cytosolic Ca2+ levels. 1,2-Bis(o-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid, a chelator of Ca2+, partially blocked SBF-1-induced ER stress and growth inhibition. Importantly, knockdown of SERCA2 increased the sensitivity of HeLa cells to SBF-1-induced ER stress and cell death, whereas overexpression of SERCA2 decreased this sensitivity. Furthermore, SBF-1 induced growth suppression and apoptosis in HeLa xenografts, which is closely related to the induction of ER stress and inhibition of SERCA activity. Finally, SERCA2 expression was elevated in human cervical cancer tissues (n=299) and lymph node metastasis (n=8), as compared with normal cervix tissues (n=23), with a positive correlation with clinical stages. In all, these results suggest that SBF-1 disrupts Ca2+ homeostasis and causes ER stress-associated cell death through directly binding to SERCA2 and inhibiting SERCA activity. Our findings also indicate that SERCA2 is a potential therapeutic target for human cervical cancer.

Sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase 2b is a major regulator of endoplasmic reticulum stress and glucose homeostasis in obesity.

Project description:Increased endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is one of the central mechanisms that lead to dysregulated metabolic homeostasis in obesity. It is thus crucial to understand the underpinnings of the mechanisms that lead to the development of ER stress. A high level of ER Ca(2+) is imperative for maintenance of normal ER function and this high Ca(2+) concentration of ER is maintained by sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA). Here, we show that SERCA2b protein and mRNA levels are dramatically reduced in the liver of obese mice and restoration of SERCA2b in the liver of obese and diabetic mice alleviates ER stress, increases glucose tolerance, and significantly reduces the blood glucose levels. Furthermore, overexpression of SERCA2b in the liver of obese mice significantly reduces the lipogenic gene expression and the triglyceride content in the liver. Our results document the importance of SERCA2b in dysregulated glucose and lipid homeostasis in the liver of obese mice and suggest development of drugs to increase SERCA2b activity for treatment of type 2 diabetes and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis.
