The interaction of several phenothiazines, benzodiazepines, butyrophenones, polycyclic neuroleptics and tricyclic antidepressants with calmodulin and troponin C was investigated using the fluorescent dye 3,3'-dipropylthiocarbocyanine iodide. In the presence of Ca2+, trifluoperazine (2-trifluoromethyl-10-[3-(1-methylpiperazinyl-4)propyl]-phenothiaz ine dihydrochloride, TFP), which is commonly used as a selective calmodulin inhibitor, half maximally increased the fluorescence of the complex formed of the fluorescent dye with calmodulin at a concentration of 4 mumol/l, and with troponin C at 24 mumol/l. TFP completely inhibited the calmodulin dependent stimulation of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase with a Ki of 4 mumol/l and decreased the maximum Ca2+ dependent troponin C mediated activation of actomyosin ATPase by 35% at a concentration of 100 mumol/l. Metofenazate (3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoate-2-chlor-10-(3-[(beta-oxyethyl) piperazinyl-4]-propyl)phenothiazine diethanesulfonate, methophenazine, MP) produced half maximal fluorescence enhancement of the calmodulin dye complex at a concentration of 6 mumol/l and did not influence the fluorescence of the troponin C dye complex at concentrations of up to 1000 mumol/l. MP also completely inhibited the calmodulin dependent stimulation of phosphodiesterase with a Ki of 7 mumol/l but it had not effect on maximum Ca2+ stimulation of actomyosin ATPase. MP increased the Ca2+ sensitivity of skinned cardiac muscle with an about 10fold lower potency than TFP. In view of these results, we propose MP as a useful tool for distinction between processes mediated by either calmodulin or troponin C.

Calmodulin derivatives, specifically biotinylated in domains I and III, were synthesized to address the structures of calmodulin necessary for binding to its target enzymes in active conformations. By binding avidin to these biotinylated calmodulins, the role of specific sequences of the calmodulin molecule in target enzyme interactions could then be evaluated. The role of domain I in these interactions was assessed by biotinylation of Cys-27 of wheat germ calmodulin with N-ethylmaleimidobiotin. This modification did not affect the ability of this calmodulin to activate 3'-5'-cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (PDE) or human erythrocyte Ca2+-Mg2+ ATPase. The addition of avidin to form a stable calmodulin-avidin complex also did not affect activation. Bovine testes calmodulin was biotinylated on Lys-94 by calcium-dependent reaction with N-hydroxysuccinimido ester-biotin at pH 6.0. This derivative was used to probe the Ca+2 binding region of domain III. The incorporation of biotin at Lys-94 of bovine calmodulin did not affect calmodulin activation of PDE. However, compared to unmodified calmodulin, a 4-fold higher concentration of this derivative was required to fully activate the ATPase. The addition of excess avidin to this derivative abolished all activation for both PDE and the ATPase. Sites of modification were determined by sequence analysis of labeled peptides.

The possible interaction between amiodarone, a potent antiarrhythmic and antianginal agent, and calmodulin (CaM) was investigated by three avenues of approach: (a) Effect of amiodarone on cardiac and vascular Ca2+/calmodulin-activated cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (CaM-PDE); (b) Effect on the CaM-activated (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase from human erythrocytes; (c) Direct interaction between amiodarone and calmodulin measured by the effect of the drug on the fluorescence of 9-anthroylcholine (9AC) bound to calmodulin. Results show that amiodarone did not interact with basal activities of CaM-PDE and other isolated CaM-insensitive PDE forms as well as with (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase. Amiodarone inhibited calmodulin-activation of aortic CaM-PDE (Ki = 650 nM, substrate cGMP) and calmodulin-activation of erythrocyte ghosts (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase (IC50 = 4.5 microM) in an apparently competitive manner. Amiodarone decreased the fluorescence of the hydrophobic probe 9AC bound to calmodulin (IC50 = 5 microM). It is concluded that amiodarone is a potent calmodulin antagonist.

Upon irradiation with UV light, chlorpromazine binds irreversibly to calmodulin and inactivates it. To determine whether this chlorpromazine-calmodulin (CPZ-CaM) complex can inhibit the actions of native calmodulin, we examined its effects on the activity of calmodulin-sensitive cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase from rat brain and on the Ca++-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) of human erythrocyte membranes. The CPZ-CaM complex was prepared by irradiating purified bovine brain calmodulin in the presence of chlorpromazine and Ca++. The sample was then dialyzed extensively to remove reversibly bound chlorpromazine and then assayed for its ability to activate calmodulin-sensitive phosphodiesterase and Ca++-ATPase, and for its ability to block the stimulatory effects of native calmodulin on these enzymes. The CPZ-CaM complex had no effect on the basal activity of either enzyme; it neither activated nor inhibited the enzymes when assayed in the absence of calmodulin. However, it affected differentially the activation of the two enzymes by native calmodulin. The CPZ-CaM complex totally inhibited calmodulin-stimulated phosphodiesterase but had no effect on the activation of the ATPase by calmodulin. Other studies showed that CPZ-CaM increased the activation constant (Ka) for the interaction of calmodulin with phosphodiesterase but did not affect the maximal activation (Vmax) of the enzyme by calmodulin. Neither calmodulin nor CPZ-CaM altered the Km for the interaction between phosphodiesterase and cyclic AMP. These results suggest that CPZ-CaM inhibits the calmodulin-induced activation of phosphodiesterase by competing with calmodulin for regulatory sites on the enzyme and not by interacting with calmodulin itself or by blocking the interaction of cyclic AMP with the enzyme.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

K-252a, an indole carbazol compound of microbial origin, inhibited activation of bovine brain phosphodiesterase induced by calmodulin (CaM), sodium oleate, or limited proteolysis with almost equal potency. Kinetic analysis revealed that the CaM-activated phosphodiesterase (CaM-PDE) was competitively inhibited by K-252a with respect to CaM. On the other hand, inhibition of the trypsin-activated phosphodiesterase was competitive with respect to cyclic AMP. Addition of a lower amount of phosphatidylserine or sodium oleate to the reaction medium was efficacious in attenuating the inhibition of the CaM-PDE by W-7, compound 48/80, or calmidazolium but, in contrast, had no effect on the inhibition by K-252a. Furthermore, CaM-independent systems such as [3H]nitrendipine receptor binding or Na+ + K+-ATPase were influenced less by K-252a compared with W-7, compound 48/80 and calmidazolium. In conclusion, K-252a is an inhibitor of CaM-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase and it appears that it inhibits the enzyme not only via CaM antagonism but possibly also by interfering with the enzyme.

The effects of neurotropic compounds on Ca-binding proteins (calmodulin, troponin C) were investigated. It was shown that the majority of neuroleptics of the phenothiazine group effectively interact with the both proteins and inhibit calmodulin-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase and Ca2+-activated actomyosin. ATPase. Neuroleptics of the butyrophenone group as well as imipramine and diphenehydramine having a low efficiency interact only with calmodulin. Methophenazine, a phenothiazine neuroleptic, being an effective inhibitor of calmodulin and of calmodulin-dependent phosphodiesterase, does not influence troponin C or Ca-dependent actomyosin ATPase. Therefore, this compound may be used as a convenient tool in the study of processes controlled by these Ca-binding proteins. It is concluded that troponin C possesses Ca-dependent sites which bind pharmacological agents structurally similar to that of calmodulin. However, these sites bind pharmacological agents with a low efficiency and exhibit selectivity towards certain drugs. Despite the obvious homology of the both Ca-binding proteins, i.e., calmodulin, troponin C, their effects on the processes under their control appear to be selective.

Nanomolar concentrations of synthetic peptides corresponding to the calmodulin-binding domain of skeletal muscle myosin light chain kinase were found to inhibit calmodulin activation of seven well-characterized calmodulin-dependent enzymes: brain 61 kDa cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase, brain adenylate cyclase, Bordetella pertussis adenylate cyclase, red blood cell membrane Ca++-pump ATPase, brain calmodulin-dependent protein phosphatase (calcineurin), skeletal muscle phosphorylase b kinase, and brain multifunctional Ca++ (calmodulin)-dependent protein kinase. Inhibition could be entirely overcome by the addition of excess calmodulin. Thus, the myosin light chain kinase peptides used in this study may be useful antagonists for studying calmodulin-dependent enzymes and processes.

Ca2+-independent protein-modulator (BacM) was found in the culture medium of Staphylococcus aureus. BacM activated calmodulin-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase and Ca2+/Mg2+-ATPase in the same way as calmodulin. BacM was shown to be a proteolytic fragment of the exotoxin secreted by the S. aureus strain under study. The kinetic analyses of the ATPase activation by BacM and CaM were performed. These studies demonstrated that the enzyme molecule contains at least two activator-sensitive sites. Experiments on the ATPase activation by Ca2+ both in the presence and in the absence of BacM and CaM documented that CaM-ATPase and BacM-ATPase complexes can exist at low concentrations of calcium. Analysis of activation curves of ATPase by Ca2+ revealed three Ca2+-binding sites in the enzyme-activator complex.

The vitamin D-dependent, calcium-binding protein from rat kidney, calbindin D28k (renal CaBP) specifically stimulates Ca,Mg-ATPase activity of human erythrocyte plasma membranes in a dose-dependent, calcium-sensitive manner. This stimulation was about two-fold compared to a three-fold stimulation by calmodulin. The effect was specific since other calcium-binding proteins and low molecular weight proteins did not stimulate Ca,Mg-ATPase activity. Renal CaBP did not stimulate cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase at concentrations greater than those which stimulated Ca,Mg-ATPase activity. This is the first report of a specific in vitro effect of renal CaBP on an enzyme system.

LY195115 selectively inhibited the peak III isozyme of cardiac cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (PDE) eluted from DEAE-cellulose columns. Inhibition curves were biphasic, suggesting heterogeneity within this preparation. Since peak III PDE is reported to be derived from membranes, effects of LY195115 upon PDE associated with cardiac membranes were examined. LY195115-sensitive PDE measured in the various membrane fractions correlated well with the sarcoplasmic reticulum marker Ca2+-ATPase (r = 0.94; p less than 0.001), but not with Na+,K+-ATPase or azide-sensitive ATPase. Membrane disruption failed to reveal latent LY195115-sensitive PDE in sarcolemmal vesicles known to be primarily right side out. The results suggest that LY195115-sensitive PDE is located within sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes with a distribution similar or identical to that of Ca2+-ATPase. Accordingly, LY195115-sensitive PDE was referred to as SR-PDE. A subfraction of sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles (free SR vesicles) was sufficiently homogeneous with respect to SR-PDE activity to carry out steady state kinetic studies. Double reciprocal plots of cAMP hydrolysis were linear, yielding Km and Vmax values of 0.46 +/- 0.03 microM and 700 +/- 90 pmol/min/mg of vesicle protein, respectively. LY195115 was a linear competitive inhibitor of SR-PDE with a Ki of 80 +/- 10 nM. -LogIC50 values for inhibition of SR-PDE by a series of structural analogues of LY195115 correlated highly with published -logED50 values for stimulation of cardiac contractility in vivo (r = 0.91, p less than 0.001). Consequently, in vivo effects of LY195115 upon the heart appear to result primarily from competitive inhibition of SR-PDE, or from binding to a site with a topography similar or identical to that of the catalytic site of SR-PDE.
