A manyfold increase in phosphorylation of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) was seen when SR was incubated in the presence of a bovine cardiac cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and cyclic AMP. This phosphoprotein had stability characteristics of a phosphoester in which the phosphate is incorporated largely into serine, and its formation did not required calcium ions, unlike the formation of acyl phosphoprotein intermediate of calcium-transport ATPase which is present within the same membrane. When examined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the protein kinase-catalyzed phosphorylation occurred at a 22,000-dalton component of the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum. This 22,000-dalton protein has been named "phospholamban" (lambda alpha mu beta alpha nu epsilon iota nu = to receive), based on its ability to receive phosphate from ATP. Phosphorylation of phospholamban by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase was associated with the stimulation of calcium transport by the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum. This stimulation was accompanied by an increase in the calcium-activated ATPase activity, indicating that the overall rate of calcium transport rather than its efficiency is enhanced by protein kinase. The 22,000-dalton phopholamban was susceptible to trypsin. Brief digestion with trypsin in the presence of 1 M sucrose prevented subsequent phosphorylation of phospholamban, while leaving the calcium pump apparently intact. Incubation of trypsin-treated sarcoplasmic reticulum with cyclic AMP-depentent protein kinase did not result in the stimulation of calcium transport. These results may suggest that phospholamban is a modulator of the calcium pump of the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum.

Cardiac microsomes were incubated with [gamma-32P]ATP and a cardiac adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP)-dependent protein kinase in the presence of ethylene glycol bis(bets-aminoethyl ether)-N,N'-tetraacetic acid. After solubilization in sodium dodecyl sulfate and fractionation by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, a single microsomal protein component of approximately 22,000 daltons was found to bind most of the 32P label. The 32P labeling of this component increased several fold when NaF was included in the incubation medium. No other component of cardiac microsomes, including sarcoplasmic reticulum ATPase protein, contained significant amounts of 32P label. This 22,000-dalton phosphoprotein formed by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase had stability characteristics of a phosphoester rather than an acyl phosphate. Washing of microsomes with buffered KCl did not decrease the amount of 32P labeling to the 22,000-dalton protein, suggesting that this protein is associated with the membranes of sarcoplasmic reticulum rather than being a contaminant from other soluble proteins. The 22,000-dalton protein was susceptible to trypsin. Brief digestion with trypsin in the presence of 1 M sucrose did not significantly affect microsomal calcium transport activity, but prevented both subsequent phosphorylation of the 22,000-dalton protein and stimulation of calcium uptake by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, suggesting that this protein is a modulator of the calcium pump. These results are consistent with previous findings (Kirchberger, M.A., Tada, M., and Katz, A.M. (1974) J. Biol. Chem. 249, 6166-6173; Tada, M., Kirchberger, M.A., Repke, D.I., and Katz, A.M. (1974) J. Biol. Chem. 249, 6174-6180) that cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase-catalyzed phosphorylation is associated with stimulation of calcium transport in the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum, and further indicate that this phosphorylation occurs at a component of low mass (22,000 daltons) of the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum which, while separable from the calcium transport ATPase protein (100,000 daltons) by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, has the ability to regulate calcium transport by the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum.

Keeping constant cellular magnesium an A 23 187 mediated moderate calcium loading of human red cells causes isoosmotic cell shrinkage, potassium efflux, slight decrease of cellular pH, ATP depletion connected with an increase of AMP, ADP and Pi and enhanced lactic acid formation. The calcium loading and accompanying effects can be abolished by EGTA or by extracellular magnesium, the latter kept more than two orders of magnitude above that of calcium which was 30 micrometer. Inhibition of the (Mg2+ + Ca2+)-dependent ATPase by ruthenium red or lanthanum decreases the calcium stimulated lactic acid formation after a lag phase. However, the ATP depletion proceeds faster and is much more pronounced under these conditions. (Mg+2 + Na+ +K+)-dependent ATPase, hexokinase, phosphofructokinase and cell shrinkage are ruled out, too, as mediators of the ATP depletion. This suggests that an unknown ATP consuming reaction, apparently not being related to the calcium pump, causes the calcium induced ATP depletion.

A controlled exchange of calcium between the extracellular space (mM Ca2+) and the neuroplasm (microM Ca2+) is considered to be an essential prerequisite for almost every stage of neuronal activity. Our research interest is focused on those compounds, which due to their physico-chemical properties and localization within the synaptic membrane might fulfill the task as neuromodulators for functional synaptic proteins. Because of this specific binding properties towards calcium and their peculiar interactions with calcium in model systems gangliosides (amphiphilic sialic acid containing glycosphingolipids) are favorite candidates for a functional involvement in synaptic transmission of information. In this study we used monolayers to investigate the molecular packing and surface potential at the air/water interface, the interaction of gangliosides with the depsipeptide valinomycin (= monovalent ion carrier), and its influenceability by calcium. Furthermore we looked at calcium effects on the single channel conductance and mean channel life-time of the monovalent ion channel gramicidin A in mixed PC/ganglioside bilayers. In pure ganglioside monolayers the addition of 0.01 mM Ca2+ induces monolayer condensation, a rise in collapse pressure (= higher film stability), a shift of phase transition (= change of conformation), and a more negative head group potential (change of electric properties). In mixed ganglioside-valinomycin monolayers the addition of Ca2+ causes phase separation and/or aggregate formation between the ganglioside and the peptide. Single channel conductance fluctuations as well as mean channel life-time were analyzed for gramicidin A incorporated into binary mixed black lipid membranes of negatively charged gangliosides (GM1, GD1a, GT1b, GMix) and neutral lecithin (DOPC) in different molar ratios. At monovalent electrolyte concentrations up to < 250 mM CsCl the single channel conductance was significantly larger in the negatively charged mixed DOPC/ganglioside membranes than in the neutral DOPC membrane. Additionally, in the presence of gangliosides the mean channel life-time is increased. The addition of calcium (0.05 mM) induced a reduction of single channel conductance of gramicidin A in DOPC- and mixed DOPC/ganglioside membranes. These physico-chemical data in connection with new electromicroscopical evidences for a precise localization of calcium, a calcium pump (Ca(2+)-ATPase), a clustered arrangement of gangliosides in synaptic terminals, and biochemical results with regard to activatory nature of exogenous gangliosides for neuronal protein phosphorylation and ATPases, support the hypothesis of a modulatory function of gangliosides in synaptic transmission.

A smooth muscle plasma membrane vesicular fraction (PMV) purified for the (Ca2+/Mg2+)-ATPase has endogenous glycolytic enzyme activity. In the presence of glycolytic substrate (fructose 1,6-diphosphate) and cofactors, PMV produced ATP and lactate and supported calcium uptake. The endogenous glycolytic cascade supports calcium uptake independent of bath [ATP]. A 10-fold dilution of PMV, with the resultant 10-fold dilution of glycolytically produced bath [ATP] did not change glycolytically fueled calcium uptake (nanomoles per milligram protein). Furthermore, the calcium uptake fueled by the endogenous glycolytic cascade persisted in the presence of a hexokinase-based ATP trap which eliminated calcium uptake fueled by exogenously added ATP. Thus, it appears that the endogenous glycolytic cascade fuels calcium uptake in PMV via a membrane-associated pool of ATP and not via an exchange of ATP with the bulk solution. To determine whether ATP produced endogenously was utilized preferentially by the calcium pump, the ATP production rates of the endogenous creatine kinase and pyruvate kinase were matched to that of glycolysis and the calcium uptake fueled by the endogenous sources was compared with that fueled by exogenous ATP added at the same rate. The rate of calcium uptake fueled by endogenous sources of ATP was approximately twice that supported by exogenously added ATP, indicating that the calcium pump preferentially utilizes ATP produced by membrane-bound enzymes.

The stimulation of the purified human erythrocyte calcium pump by acidic phospholipids was investigated using synthetic peptides corresponding to a putative phospholipid-responsive domain [Zvaritch, E., James, P., Vorherr, T., Falchetto, R., Modyanov, N. & Carafoli, E. (1990) Biochemistry 29, 8070-8076] and to the calmodulin-binding domain of the pump. The peptides interfered with the activation of the enzyme by phosphatidylserine and phosphatidic acid in competition assays. The peptide corresponding to the calmodulin-binding domain was found to be the most efficient antagonist. Direct binding measurements using fluorescent derivatives of the peptides confirmed the interaction between the acidic phospholipids and the peptides, and fluorescence titrations of dansylated calmodulin with the purified ATPase showed a direct effect of acidic phospholipids on calmodulin binding. A proteolyzed preparation of the Ca(2+)-ATPase lacking the calmodulin-binding domain confirmed that the phospholipid-induced stimulation is mediated by two sites, one located in the C-terminal portion of the previously identified 44-amino-acid phospholipid-responsive domain, the other in the calmodulin-binding domain.

Myotoxin a, a small basic polypeptide isolated from the venom of prairie rattlesnake (Crotalus viridis viridis), has been shown to bind to sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+)-ATPase. The attachment of myotoxin a to Ca(2+)-ATPase is believed to cause uncoupling of the calcium pump. In order to further elucidate which portion of myotoxin a is important for the uncoupling action, five peptides were synthesized and two peptide fragments were obtained by chemical cleavage. These peptides correspond to discrete portions of the primary sequence of myotoxin a. The peptides are equivalent to the primary sequence of myotoxin a from 1 to 16 residues, 7 to 22 residues, 13 to 28 residues, 19 to 34 residues, and 25 to 42 residues. Chemically produced fragments are equivalent to 1 to 28 residues and 29 to 42 residues of myotoxin a. Peptides of the sequences "YKQCHKKGGHCFPKEK" and "LGKMDCRWKWKCCKKGSG" of myotoxin a inhibited 45Ca uptake into isolated SR and bound to Ca(2+)-ATPase. The same peptides caused weak skeletal muscle vacuolization similar to that caused by native myotoxin a and increased serum creatine kinase activity. The active peptides correspond to the N-terminal and C-terminal portions of myotoxin a. The inactive or less active peptides have sequences which correspond to the middle sequence of myotoxin a. From this study, both the N-terminal and the C-terminal regions of primary sequence of myotoxin a are required to express myotoxin a's biological activity.

A Ca(2+)-dependent ATPase, purified from cardiac microsomal membranes by solubilization and chromatography, is identified as cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum ATPase on the basis of its electrophoretic mobility and its trypsin digestion pattern. The ATPase (both in membranous and purified form) is stimulated by calmodulin, while the skeletal muscle ATPase is not. Rapid kinetic experiments demonstrate that the calmodulin stimulation is already present within the first enzyme cycle following the addition of ATP, and consists of an increased turnover of the phosphorylated enzyme intermediate. The calmodulin effect does not involve the phosphorylation of any protein other than the ATPase. Following the incubation of ATPase with [gamma-32P]ATP, even in conditions of calmodulin stimulation, radioactive phosphorus is found only on the ATPase electrophoretic band, corresponding to the phosphorylated enzyme intermediate. These observations, together with the results obtained for [125I]calmodulin binding to the ATPase, suggest that the stimulation in turnover produced by calmodulin on the ATPase is due to a direct effect on the enzyme. This may provide an independent regulation of the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase, in addition to the known regulation mediated by other accessory proteins.

A disruption of calcium homeostasis, leading to a sustained increase in cytosolic calcium levels, has been associated with cytotoxicity in response to a variety of agents in different cell types. We have observed that administration of a single high dose or multiple lower doses of the carcinogenic nephrotoxin ochratoxin A (OTA) to rats resulted in an increase of the renal cortex endoplasmic reticulum ATP-dependent calcium pump activity. The increase was very rapid, being evident within 10 min of OTA administration and remained elevated for at least 6 hr thereafter. The increase in calcium pump activity was inconsistent with previous observations that OTA enhances lipid peroxidation (ethane exhalation) in vivo, a condition known to inhibit the calcium pump. However, no evidence of enhanced lipid peroxidation was observed in the renal cortex since levels of malondialdehyde and a variety of antioxidant enzymes including catalase, DT-diaphorase, superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase and glutathione S-transferase were either unaltered or reduced. In in vitro studies, addition of OTA to cortex microsomes during calcium uptake inhibited the uptake process although the effect was reversible. Preincubation of microsomes with NADPH had a profound inhibitory effect on calcium uptake but inclusion of OTA was able to reverse the inhibition. Changes in the rates of microsomal calcium uptake correlated with changes in the steady-state levels of the phosphorylated Mg2+/Ca(2+)-ATPase intermediate, suggesting that in vivo/in vitro conditions were affecting the rate of enzyme phosphorylation.

In order to identify comparative aspects of the interaction of calmodulin with its target proteins, proton magnetic-resonance studies of complex formation between calmodulin and defined segments of phospholamban and caldesmon have been undertaken. Residues 3-15 in the cytoplasmic region of phospholamban, an integral membrane protein of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum believed to regulate the calcium pumping ATPase, are shown to contribute to interaction with calmodulin. Using wheat germ calmodulin specifically modified with a spin-label to provide the spectral means for spatial localisation, these residues of phospholamban were correlated with binding in the vicinity of the probe attached to Cys-27 in the N-terminal domain of calmodulin. This interaction, relevant to the mechanism of calmodulin-dependent phosphorylation of phospholamban that relieves its inhibitory influence on the calcium pump, provides a useful model system for comparative study of the properties of calmodulin-binding domains. We contrast here a calmodulin-binding segment in the C-terminal region of caldesmon localised by 1H-NMR study of the interface(s) between the two proteins. These observations are discussed in the context of other calmodulin-binding sequences.
