Sarcoplasmic reticulum proteins have been cross-linked in situ with two reagents, the disulphide-bridged bifunctional imido ester, dimethyl-3,3'-dithiobispropionimidate dihydrochloride and the mild oxidant cupric phenanthroline. Analysis of proteins so cross-linked by electrophoresis on agarose/acrylamide gels reveals that a series of new polypeptides, up to a molecular weight of 900 000, are formed. These have molecular weights which are multiples of 100 000. Further analysis of samples by electrophoresis in a second dimensions containing a reducing agent revealed the monomeric polypeptides from which the cross-linked polypeptides were formed. With dimethyl 3,3'-dithiobispropionimidate dihydrochloride homopolymers of the Ca2+-stimulated ATPase, calsequestrin and/or calcium binding protein were formed. With cupric phenanthroline only the Ca2+-stimulated ATPase was involved in polymer formation. It has been confirmed on another gel system that these two proteins which are involved in Ca2+ binding are not cross-linked intermolecularly with this latter reagent. We conclude that the 100 000 dalton Ca2+-stimulated ATPase polypeptides are within 2 A of each other in the membrane while calsequestrin and/or calcium binding protein are within 11 A of each other. Although there appears to be no limit to the extent of cross-linking of any of these polypeptides there is not indication of heteropolymer associations between them.

Purified porcine erythrocyte membrane Ca(2+)-ATPase and 3':5'-cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase were stimulated in a dose-dependent, saturable manner with the vitamin D-dependent calcium binding protein from rat kidney, calbindin-D28k (CaBP-D28k). The concentration of CaBP-D28k required for half-maximal activation (K0.5 act.) of the Ca(2+)-ATPase was 28 nM compared to 2.2 nM for calmodulin (CaM), with maximal activation equivalent upon addition of either excess CaM or CaBP-D28k. 3':5'-Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (PDE) also showed equivalent maximum saturable activation by calbindin (K0.5 act. = 90 nM) or calmodulin (K0.5 act. = 1.2 nM). CaBP-D28k was shown to effectively compete with CaM-Sepharose for PDE binding. Immunoprecipitation with CaBP-D28k antiserum completely inhibited calbindin-mediated activation of PDE but had no effect on calmodulin's ability to activate PDE. While the physiological significance of these results remains to be established, they do suggest that CaBP-D28k can activate enzymes and may be a regulator of yet to be identified target enzymes in certain tissues.

Vitamin D3 undergoes sequential hydroxylations in the liver and kidney to form 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3, the biologically active form of the vitamin. 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 is metabolized by several processes in various target tissues that decrease the biological activity of the sterol. In addition, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 is excreted in the bile as polar metabolites, such as glucuronides and, possibly sulfates and neutral polar steroids. These compounds undergo an enterohepatic recirculation in both man and experimental animals. 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 increases the absorption of calcium in the intestine and the reabsorption of calcium in the kidney. It induces the synthesis of several proteins, the most notable of which is calcium binding protein that is thought to play a role in the absorption of calcium. The vitamin D-dependent calcium binding proteins and the calcium-magnesium ATPase calcium pump are co-localized in several tissues that play a role in the absorption of calcium.

We have previously shown that the human kidney distal convoluted tubule (DCT) contains epitopes of the human erythrocyte Ca++-Mg++ ATPase pump (J Clin Invest 80: 1225-1231, 1987). To determine whether vitamin D-dependent 28-kilodalton-calcium binding protein (28kDa-CaBP)and Ca++-Mg++ ATPase are present in the same cells of the human kidney, kidney tissue was examined for immunoreactivity with antibodies directed against these proteins. Double-label immunohistochemistry showed that a majority of the distal convoluted tubules contain epitopes to both of these proteins. portions of the distal nephron which were positive for 28kDa-CaBP did not show anti-Ca++-Mg++ ATPase antibody binding. All other portions of the nephron were negative for both proteins. Western blot analysis of kidney homogenates by 7% sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), showed binding of an anti-Ca++-Mg ATPase monoclonal antibody to a major band of Mr = 140,000. Western blots of kidney homogenates by 10% SDS-PAGE also showed binding of an anti-28kDa-CaBP polyclonal antibody to a protein band at Mr = 28,000. Incubation of parallel blots from the same 10% gel with 45CaCl2 demonstrated that the Mr = 28,000 band binds calcium. This work demonstrates, for the first time, that epitopes of vitamin D-inducible 28kDa-CaBp and human erythrocyte Ca++-Mg++ ATPase pump are present in the same cells of the human kidney. Previous work in our laboratory has shown that 28kDa-CaBP binds calcium in a manner analogous to calmodulin, a known regulator of the erythrocyte Ca++-Mg ATPase pump (J Biol Chem, 1987).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

In order to further test the validity of the vesicular transport model of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3)-stimulated intestinal calcium absorption, dose-response studies were undertaken. Using previously established methodology for subcellular fractionation following 45Ca absorption from in situ ligated duodenal loops, radionuclide levels were found to increase gradually in endocytic vesicles prepared from 1,25(OH)2D3-treated (+D) chicks relative to controls (-D) achieving a plateau at greater than or equal to 260 pmol seco-steroid. By comparison, lysosomal 45Ca levels increased more readily, having +D/-D ratios of 1.88 +/- 0.35, 2.21 +/- 0.05, 2.17 +/- 0.88, 2.31 +/- 0.25, and 2.15 +/- 0.47 after 0.0104, 0.052, 0.26, 1.3, or 6.5 nmol of 1,25(OH)2D3, respectively. Net intestinal calcium absorption, as judged by appearance of 45Ca in the serum for the same range of doses, rose gradually to a plateau value at greater than or equal to 260 pmol. Since lysosomal 45Ca levels were maximally increased at 1,25(OH)2D3 doses lower than those required for fully stimulated transport, it was concluded that lysosomes are still candidates for cellular calcium carriers, but that other elements of the transport pathway are required. Analyses of gradient fractions for calbindin-D28K (the vitamin D-induced calcium binding protein), and potential 1,25(OH)2D3-mediated changes in vesicular ATPase (microtubule motive power for transcellular delivery of calcium) failed to identify the missing components.

In an effort to extend our studies on Ca2+ pumps to animal models, we developed a new monoclonal antibody (5F10) prepared against the human erythrocyte Ca2+-Mg2+-adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase) that recognizes a protein of approximately 140 kDa in rat kidney homogenates. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays show that monoclonal antibody 5F10 binds purified Ca2+-Mg2+-ATPase and rat kidney membrane extracts in a concentration-dependent manner. In paraffin-embedded tissue sections, antibody 5F10 binds to an epitope in the basolateral membranes of rat kidney distal convoluted tubule principal cells. The antibody does not bind to intercalated cells. The latter cells were characterized by the presence of large amounts of carbonic anhydrase C. Polyclonal antibodies directed against chick intestinal 28-kDa vitamin D-dependent calcium binding protein (28-kDa CaBP) also bind epitopes in distal convoluted tubule cells, connecting tubules, and portions of collecting duct but not intercalated cells. Western blot and 45Ca blot analysis of renal cytosolic proteins showed that the polyclonal 28-kDa CaBP-directed antibody detects a protein which also binds calcium. Western blot analysis with monoclonal antibody 5F10 shows binding to both the authentic purified erythrocyte Ca2+ pump (approximately 138 kDa) and to tryptic fragments of this pump. Antibody JA3, previously used for staining of human kidney tubules, reacts with a different set of tryptic fragments, showing that the two antibodies are directed against different regions or conformational determinants on the pump molecule. We show that Ca2+-Mg2+-ATPase and 28-kDa CaBP are present in the principal cells of the distal convoluted tubule of the rat and are absent in intercalated cells.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

We have identified the proteins specifically expressed in multidrug-resistant tumor cells and studied the functions of these proteins. The 170-to 180-kDa membrane glycoprotein (P-glycoprotein) is an ATPase which works as a pump molecule transporting chemotherapeutic drugs outside the resistant cells. The 22-kDa soluble protein (sorcin) is a calcium binding protein of unknown function. The 85-kDa membrane protein is specifically expressed in adriamycin-resistant cells and induced by treatment with adriamycin, suggesting a mechanism unique for adriamycin resistance. Our monoclonal antibodies to these proteins may well become useful tools for the diagnosis of clinical drug resistance.

Rat liver endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membranes were investigated for the presence of proteins having structural relationships with sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) proteins. Western immunoblots of ER proteins probed with polyclonal antibodies raised against the 100-kDa SR Ca-ATPase of rabbit skeletal muscle identified a single reactive protein of 100 kDa. Also, the antibody inhibited up to 50% the Ca-ATPase activity of isolated ER membranes. Antisera raised against the major intraluminal calcium binding protein of rabbit skeletal muscle SR, calsequestrin (CS), cross-reacted with an ER peptide of about 63 kDa, by the blotting technique. Stains-All treatment of slab gels showed that the cross-reactive peptide stained metachromatically blue, similarly to SR CS. Two-dimensional electrophoresis (Michalak, M., Campbell, K. P., and MacLennan, D. H. (1980) J. Biol. Chem. 255, 1317-1326) of ER proteins showed that the CS-like component of liver ER, similarly to skeletal CS, fell off the diagonal line, as expected from the characteristic pH dependence of the rate of mobility of mammalian CS. In addition, the CS-like component of liver ER was released from the vesicles by alkaline treatment and was found to be able to bind calcium, by a 45Ca overlay technique. From these findings, we conclude that a 100-kDa membrane protein of liver ER is the Ca-ATPase, and that the peripheral protein in the 63-kDa range is closely structurally and functionally related to skeletal CS.

The system of renal Ca transport in the rat is modeled in terms of two classes of processes: a nonsaturable flux that predominates in the proximal tubule, and an active, vitamin D-dependent flux with major expression in the distal convoluted tubule. There transport is against an electrochemical gradient, with much of the efflux probably mediated by the Ca/Mg-ATPase. Calculations of the rate of free Ca diffusion in tubular cells indicate that an unaided flux would be only one-seventy-seventh of that found experimentally. It is suggested that the vitamin D-induced renal calcium binding protein, CaBPr, Mr approximately 28,000, in raising total cellular calcium by three orders of magnitude, increases the transcellular Ca flux and thus the free intracellular Ca ion concentration at the basolateral pole, allowing the Ca/Mg-ATPase to function near its maximum. Analysis of the rate of nonsaturable Ca flux throughout the kidney tubule suggests a paracellular pathway via bulk flow, following water that is driven osmotically. Evaluation of whole animal data in terms of these two classes of calcium fluxes indicates that our model is consistent with experimental observations and assigns a functional role to active calcium transport.

Stimulation of Mg2+, Ca2+ and Mg2+HCO-3 dependent ATPase activity in mitochondrial and microsomal fractions from the uteri of laying hens is demonstrated. ATPase activity was greatest with 5 mM concentrations of Mg2+ at pH 8.5, and at pH 7.4-7.8 following the addition of bicarbonate. Suppression of eggshell calcification, induced by insertion of a thread into the uterus, did not alter Mg2+, Ca2+ and Mg2+HCO-3 ATPase activities. Alkaline phosphatase activity was generally low, and was unaffected by suppression of eggshell calcification. Levels of carbonic anhydrase and calcium binding protein were lower in the uteri of hens laying shell-less eggs. Injections of 1,25(OH)2D3 in hens laying shell-less eggs did not alter CaBP levels or enzyme activities. It is concluded that factors other than 1,25(OH)2D3 and gonadal hormones are involved in the regulation of uterine CaBP levels.
