Interactome of the -subunit of L-type voltage-gated calcium channels in adult cardiomyocytes
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: In cardiomyocytes, Ca2+ influx through L-type voltage-gated calcium channels (LTCCs) following membrane depolarization regulates crucial Ca2+-dependent processes including duration and amplitude of the action potentials and excitation-contraction coupling. LTCCs are heteromultimeric proteins composed of the Cav1, Cav, Cav2 and Cav subunits. Here, using ascorbate peroxidase (APEX)-mediated proximity labeling and quantitative proteomics, we identified 61 proteins in the nano-environments of Cav2 in cardiomyocytes. These proteins are involved in diverse cellular functions such as cellular trafficking, muscular contraction, sarcomere organization and excitation-contraction coupling. Moreover, pull-down assays, co-immunoprecipitation analyses and super-resolution imaging using direct stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy (dSTORM) revealed that Cav2 interacts with the ryanodine receptor 2 (RyR2) in adult cardiomyocytes, probably coupling LTCCs and the RyR2 into a supramolecular complex at the dyads. This interaction is mediated by the Src-homology 3 domain of Cav2 and is necessary for an effective pacing frequency‐dependent increase of the Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release mechanism in cardiomyocytes.
