A novel P-type Ca(2+)-ATPase gene has been cloned and sequenced in the yeast Kluyveromyces lactis. The gene has been named KlPMR1 and is localized on chromosome I. The putative gene product contains 936 residues and has a calculated molecular weight of 102,437 Da. Analysis of deduced amino acid sequence (KlPmr1p) indicated that the encoded protein retains all the highly conserved domains characterizing the P-type ATPases. KlPmr1p shares 71% amino acid identity with Pmr1p of S. cerevisiae, 62% with HpPmr1p of Hansenula polymorpha, 56% with Y1Pmr1p of Yarrowia lipolytica and 52% with the Ca(2+)-ATPase encoded for by the SPCA1 gene of Rattus norvegicus; these similarities place KlPmr1p in the SPCA group (secretory pathway Ca(2+)-ATPase) of the P-type ATPases. The K. lactis strain harbouring the Klpmr1 disrupted gene is not able to grow in presence of low calcium concentrations and shows hypersensitivity to high concentrations of EGTA in the medium. These defects are relieved by PMR1 of S. cerevisiae on a centromeric plasmid, demonstrating that KlPMR1 encodes for a functional Pmr1p homologue.

Osteoclasts are postmitotic, multinucleated giant cells generated by the fusion of hematopoietic mononuclear precursors from the monocyte-macrophage lineage. In culture, adherent macrophages from blood-derived monocytes grow, gather, and fuse together to form multinucleated osteoclast-like cells. These events are controlled by 1,25(OH)(2)D(3). To sort out new 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) target genes involved in osteoclast differentiation, we have performed an RT-PCR differential display using mRNA from macrophages induced for 10 h by 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) compared to nontreated cells. We have identified a new target gene, a chick ATP-dependent Ca(2+) pump, ChkSERCA3. Although the level of the corresponding transcript increases during the differentiation process from macrophages to osteoclast-like cells, its steady-state level is downregulated by hormone treatment. The action of 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) on the Ca(2+)-ATPase gene expression is independent of de novo protein synthesis and is hormone dose dependent. This expression in adult chick was restricted to the hematopoietic cell lineage, spleen, lung, intestine, and brain, whereas no expression was detected in embryos. The function of the protein can be predicted from its high homology with the other members of the SR ATP-dependent Ca(2+) pump family, i.e., storage and control of cytosolic Ca(2+) directly regulated by 1, 25(OH)(2)D(3), further supporting the critical role for intracellular calcium in highly specialized cells such as osteoclasts.

The discovery and biochemical characterization of the secretory pathway Ca(2+)-ATPase, PMR1, in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, has paved the way for identification of PMR1 homologues in many species including rat, Caenorhabditis elegans, and Homo sapiens. In yeast, PMR1 has been shown to function as a high affinity Ca(2+)/Mn(2+) pump and has been localized to the Golgi compartment where it is important for protein sorting, processing, and glycosylation. However, little is known about PMR1 homologues in higher organisms. Loss of one functional allele of the human gene, hSPCA1, has been linked to Hailey-Hailey disease, characterized by skin ulceration and improper keratinocyte adhesion. We demonstrate that expression of hSPCA1 in yeast fully complements pmr1 phenotypes of hypersensitivity to Ca(2+) chelators and Mn(2+) toxicity. Similar to PMR1, epitope-tagged hSPCA1 also resides in the Golgi when expressed in yeast or in chinese hamster ovary cells. (45)Ca(2+) transport by hSPCA1 into isolated yeast Golgi vesicles shows an apparent Ca(2+) affinity of 0.26 microm, is inhibitable by Mn(2+), but is thapsigargin-insensitive. In contrast, heterologous expression of vertebrate sarcoplasmic reticulum and plasma membrane Ca(2+)-ATPases in yeast complement the Ca(2+)- but not Mn(2+)-related phenotypes of the pmr1-null strain, suggesting that high affinity Mn(2+) transport is a unique feature of the secretory pathway Ca(2+)-ATPases.

The secretory-pathway Ca(2+)-ATPase SPCA1 is a thapsigargin-insensitive intracellular Ca(2+) pump found mostly in the Golgi compartment. We have explored the contribution of this Ca(2+) pump to cytosolic Ca(2+) signaling in HeLa cells by using RNA-mediated interference to disrupt its expression. Removal of SPCA1 was confirmed by immunofluorescence with specific anti-SPCA1 antibodies. Measurements of the free Ca(2+) concentration in the lumen of the Golgi apparatus by specifically targeting the Ca(2+)-sensitive luminescent protein aequorin to this organelle revealed that endogenous SPCA1 was responsible for Ca(2+) uptake in a subfraction of the Golgi apparatus. HeLa cells lacking SPCA1 could still set up baseline Ca(2+) spiking when stimulated with histamine, indicating that the SPCA1-containing Ca(2+) store was not absolutely needed to set up these oscillations. However, baseline Ca(2+) oscillations occurred less frequently than in control cells, pointing to a contribution of SPCA1 in the shaping of the cytosolic Ca(2+) signal in HeLa cells.

Mutations in the ubiquitously expressed secretory-pathway Ca(2+)-ATPase (SPCA1) Ca(2+) pump result in Hailey-Hailey disease, which almost exclusively affects the epidermal part of the skin. We have studied Ca(2+) signaling in human keratinocytes by measuring the free Ca(2+) concentration in the cytoplasm and in the lumen of both the Golgi apparatus and the endoplasmic reticulum. These signals were compared with those recorded in SPCA1-overexpressing and control COS-1 cells. Both the sarco(endo)plasmic-reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA) and SPCA1 can mediate Ca(2+) uptake into the Golgi stacks. Our results indicate that keratinocytes mainly used the SPCA1 Ca(2+) pump to load the Golgi complex with Ca(2+) whereas the SERCA Ca(2+) pump was mainly used in control COS-1 cells. Cytosolic Ca(2+) signals in keratinocytes induced by extracellular ATP or capacitative Ca(2+) entry were characterized by an unusually long latency reflecting extra Ca(2+) buffering by an SPCA1-containing Ca(2+) store, similarly as in SPCA1-overexpressing COS-1 cells. Removal of extracellular Ca(2+) elicited spontaneous cytosolic Ca(2+) transients in keratinocytes, similarly as in SPCA1-overexpressing COS-1 cells. With respect to Ca(2+) signaling keratinocytes and SPCA1-overexpressing COS-1 cells therefore behaved similarly but differed from control COS-1 cells. The relatively large contribution of the SPCA1 pumps for loading the Golgi stores with Ca(2+) in keratinocytes may, at least partially, explain why mutations in the SPCA1 gene preferentially affect the skin in Hailey-Hailey patients.

Darier's disease and Hailey-Hailey disease are autosomal dominantly inherited skin disorders in which desmosomal adhesion between keratinocytes is abnormal. ATP2A2 and ATP2C1 have been identified as the causative genes for Darier's disease and Hailey-Hailey disease, respectively. ATP2A2 encodes the sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase isoform 2 (SERCA2) pump, while ATP2C1 encodes a secretory pathway Ca(2+)/Mn(2+)-ATPase (SPCA1) found in the Golgi apparatus. We review recent work into the function of these pumps in human keratinocytes and discuss how mutations in these genes might cause these diseases by altering the formation or stability of desmosomes.

ATP2C1, encoding the human secretory pathway Ca(2+)-ATPase (hSPCA1), was recently identified as the defective gene in Hailey-Hailey disease (HHD), an autosomal dominant skin disorder characterized by abnormal keratinocyte adhesion in the suprabasal layers of the epidermis. In this study, we used denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography to screen all 28 exons and flanking intron boundaries of ATP2C1 for mutations in 9 HHD patients. Nine different mutations were identified. Five of these mutations, including one nonsense, one deletion, two splice-site, and one missense mutation, have not been previously reported. Recently, functional analysis of a series of site-specific mutants, designed to mimic missense mutations found in ATP2C1, uncovered specific defects in Ca(2+) and/or Mn(2+) transport and protein expression in mutant hSPCA1 polypeptides. In order to investigate the molecular and physiological basis of HHD in the patient carrying missense mutation A528P, located in the putative nucleotide binding domain of the molecule, site-directed mutagenesis was employed to introduce this mutation into the wild-type ATP2C1 (hSPCA1) sequence. Functional analyses of HHD-mutant A528P demonstrated a low level of protein expression, despite normal levels of mRNA and correct targeting to the Golgi, suggesting instability or abnormal folding of the mutated hSPCA1 polypeptides. Analogous to conclusions drawn from our previous studies, these results further support the theory of haploinsufficiency as a prevalent mechanism for the dominant inheritance of HHD, by suggesting that the level of hSPCA1 in epidermal cells is critical.

The distribution of the secretory pathway Ca2+ -ATPase (SPCA1) was investigated at both the mRNA and protein level in a variety of tissues. The mRNA and the protein for SPCA1 were relatively abundant in rat brain, testis and testicular derived cells (myoid cells, germ cells, primary Sertoli cells and TM4 cells; a mouse Sertoli cell line) and epididymal fat pads. Lower levels were found in aorta (rat and porcine), heart, liver, lung and kidney. SPCA activities from a number of tissues were measured and shown to be particularly high in brain, aorta, heart, fat pads and testis. As the proportion of SPCA activity compared to total Ca2+ ATPase activity in brain, aorta, fat pads and testis were relatively high, this suggests that SPCA1 plays a major role in Ca2+ storage within these tissues. The subcellular localisation of SPCA1 was shown to be predominantly around the Golgi in both human aortic smooth muscle cells and TM4 cells.

The causes of Darier disease (DD) and Hailey-Hailey disease (HHD) have eluded clinicians and scientists for more than 60 years. DD is characterized by loss of adhesion between suprabasal epidermal cells associated with abnormal keratinization, while loss of epidermal cell-to-cell adhesion is predominant in HHD. The genes for both conditions have recently been identified using candidate positional cloning approaches. The gene for DD (ATP2A2) encodes a calcium transport ATPase of the sarco (endo)plasmic reticulum (SERCA2) Verboomen et al. [1992: Biochem J 286(Pt 2):591-595], while the gene for HHD (ATP2C1) codes for a secretory pathway for calcium and manganese transport ATPase of the Golgi apparatus (SPCA1) Hu et al. [2000: Nat Genet 24:61-65]. These results have provided completely new insights into the role of calcium and/or manganese in maintaining skin integrity. Although the precise disease mechanisms remain to be understood, these discoveries open a new field in research for the understanding and the treatment of these distressing disorders.

The term orthodisease has recently been introduced to define human disorders in which the pathogenic gene has orthologs in model organism genomes. Here, we describe Hailey-Hailey disease (HHD), a blistering skin disorder caused by haploinsufficiency of ATP2C1 as an orthodisease from a Saccharomyces cerevisiae perspective. ATP2C1 encodes the human secretory pathway Ca(2+)/Mn(2+) ATPase hSPCA1 and is orthologous to the PMR1 gene in S. cerevisiae. hSPCA1 fully complements PMR1 deficiency in yeast and pmr1DeltaS. cerevisiae has proved to be a valuable tool to screen ATP2C1 mutations and address potential pathogenic/pharmacologic mechanisms in HHD. Consequently, this human skin disorder is an ideal example of an orthodisease.
