The sarcoplasmic-endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA) inhibitors thapsigargin (0.1-1 microM) and cyclopiazonic acid (10 microM), failed to affect resting [Ca(2+)] in human spermatozoa. Slow progesterone-induced [Ca(2+ i)](i) oscillations in human spermatozoa, which involve cyclic emptying-refilling of an intracellular Ca(2+) store were also insensitive to these inhibitors. Non-selective doses of thapsigargin (5-30 microM, 50-300 times the saturating dose for SERCA inhibition), caused elevation of resting [Ca(2+)](i) and partial, dose-dependent disruption of oscillations. A 10-40 microM concentration of bis(2-hydroxy-3-tert-butyl-5-methyl-phenyl)methane (bis-phenol), which inhibits both thapsigargin-sensitive and -insensitive microsomal Ca(2+) ATPases, caused elevation of resting [Ca(2+)](i) and inhibition of [Ca(2+)](i) oscillations at doses consistent with inhibition of thapsigargin-resistant, microsomal ATPase and liberation of stored Ca(2+). Low doses of bis-phenol had marked effects on [Ca(2+)](i) oscillation kinetics. Application of the drug to cells previously stimulated with progesterone had effects very similar to those observed when it was applied to unstimulated cells, suggesting that the sustained Ca(2+) influx induced by progesterone is not mediated via mobilisation of Ca(2+) stores. Western blotting for human sperm proteins showed expression of secretory pathway Ca(2+) ATPase (SPCA1). Immunolocalisation studies revealed expression of SPCA1 in all cells in an area behind the nucleus, extending into the midpiece. Staining for SERCA, carried out in parallel, detected no expression with either technique. We conclude that: (1) intracellular Ca(2+) store(s) and store-dependent [Ca(2+)](i) oscillations in human spermatozoa rely primarily on a thapsigargin/cyclopiazonic acid-insensitive Ca(2+) pump, which is not a SERCA as characterised in somatic cells; (2) effects of high-dose thapsigargin on spermatozoa primarily reflect non-specific actions on non-SERCAs and; (3) secretory pathway Ca(2+) ATPases contribute at least part of this non-SERCA Ca(2+) pump activity.

PMR1, the Ca2+/Mn2+ ATPase of the secretory pathway in Saccharomyces cerevisiae was the first member of the secretory pathway Ca2+ ATPases (SPCA) to be characterized. In the past few years, pmr1Delta yeast have received more attention due to the recognition that the human homologue of this protein, hSPCA1 is defective in chronic benign pemphigus or Hailey-Hailey disease (HHD). Recent publications have described pmr1Delta S. cerevisiae as a useful model organism for studying the molecular pathology of HHD. Some observations indicated that the high Ca2+ sensitive phenotype of PMR1 defective yeast strains may be the most relevant in this respect. Here we show that the total cellular calcium response of a pmr1Delta S. cerevisiae upon extracellular Ca2+ challenge is decreased compared to the wild type strain similarly as observed in keratinocytes. Additionally, the novel magnesium sensitivity of PMR1 defective yeast is revealed, which appears to be a result of competition for uptake between Ca2+ and Mg2+ at the plasma membrane level. Our findings indicate that extracellular Ca2+ and Mg2+ competitively influence the intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis of S. cerevisiae. These observations may further our understanding of HHD.

Steady-state and transient kinetic studies were performed to functionally analyze the overall and partial reactions of the Ca(2+) transport cycle of the human secretory pathway Ca(2+)/Mn(2+)-ATPase 1 (SPCA1) isoforms: SPCA1a, SPCA1b, SPCA1c, and SPCA1d (encoded by ATP2C1, the gene defective in Hailey-Hailey disease) upon heterologous expression in mammalian cells. The expression levels of SPCA1 isoforms were 200-350-fold higher than in control cells except for SPCA1c, whose low expression level appears to be the effect of rapid degradation because of protein misfolding. Relative to SERCA1a, the active SPCA1a, SPCA1b, and SPCA1d enzymes displayed extremely high apparent affinities for cytosolic Ca(2+) in activation of the overall ATPase and phosphorylation activities. The maximal turnover rates of the ATPase activity for SPCA1 isoforms were 4.7-6.4-fold lower than that of SERCA1a (lowest for the shortest SPCA1a isoform). The kinetic analysis traced these differences to a decreased rate of the E(1) approximately P(Ca) to E(2)-P transition. The apparent affinity for inorganic phosphate was reduced in the SPCA1 enzymes. This could be accounted for by an enhanced rate of the E(2)-P hydrolysis, which showed constitutive activation, lacking the SERCA1a-specific dependence on pH and K(+).

Hailey-Hailey disease, or chronic benign pemphigus (MIM# 169600), is a genodermatosis arising in adult age with recurrent vesicles and erosions primarily in the flexural areas. It is an autosomal dominant skin disorder characterized by abnormal keratinocyte adhesion in the suprabasal layers of the epidermis. ATP2C1, encoding the human secretory pathway Ca(2+)-ATPase (hSPCA1), was recently identified as the defective gene in Hailey-Hailey disease. More than 82 different ATP2C1 mutations have been described up to date. In this study, a case of Hailey-Hailey disease is presented where a nucleotide change (1402C > T) in the decoding region of ATP2C1 resulted in a premature stop mutation (R468X). This defect has been reported earlier in a patient of European descent. A brief molecular genetic review of the disorder is also given.

Human secretory pathway Ca2+/Mn2+-ATPase (SPCA) 2 encoded by ATP2C2 is only expressed in a limited number of tissues, unlike the ubiquitously expressed SPCA1 pump (encoded by ATP2C1, the gene defective in Hailey-Hailey disease). It has not been determined whether there are significant functional differences between SPCA1 and SPCA2 pump enzymes. Therefore, steady-state and transient kinetic approaches were used to characterize the overall and partial reactions of the Ca2+ transport cycle mediated by the human SPCA2 enzyme upon heterologous expression in HEK-293 cells. The catalytic turnover rate of SPCA2 was found enhanced relative to SPCA1 pumps. SPCA2 displayed a very high apparent affinity for cytosolic Ca2+ (K0.5 = 0.025 microm) in activation of the phosphorylation activity but still 2.5-fold lower than that of SPCA1d. Our kinetic analysis traced both differences to the increased rate characterizing the E1 approximately PCa to E2-P transition of SPCA2. Moreover, the reduced rate of the E2 to E1 transition seems to contribute in determining the lower apparent Ca2+ affinity and the increased sensitivity to thapsigargin inhibition, relative to SPCA1d. SPCA2 also displayed a reduced apparent affinity for inorganic phosphate, which could be explained by the observed enhanced rate of the E2-P dephosphorylation. The insensitivity to modulation by pH and K+ concentration of the constitutively enhanced E2-P dephosphorylation of SPCA2 is similar to SPCA1d and possibly represents a novel SPCA-specific feature, which is not shared by sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPases.

1. Secretory pathway Ca(2+) ATPase type 1 (SPCA1) is a newly recognized Ca(2+)/Mn(2+)-transporting pump localized in membranes of the Golgi apparatus. 2. The expression level of SPCA1 in brain tissue is relatively high in comparison with other tissues. 3. With the aim to determine the expression of SPCA1 within the different types of neural cells, we investigated the distribution of SPCA1 in neuronal, astroglial, oligodendroglial, ependymal, and microglial cell cultures derived from rat brains. 4. Western Blot analysis with rabbit anti-SPCA1 antibodies revealed the presence of SPCA1 in homogenates derived from neuronal, astroglial, ependymal, and oligodendroglial, but not from microglial cells. 5. Cell cultures that gave rise to positive signal in the immunoblot analysis were also examined immunocytochemically. 6. Immunocytochemical double-labeling experiments with anti-SPCA1 serum in combination with antibodies against cell-type specific proteins showed a localization of the SPCA1signal within cells stained positively also for GFAP, alpha-tubulin or MBP. 7. These results definitely established the expression of SPCA1 in astroglial, ependymal, and oligodendroglial cells. 8. In addition, the evaluation of neuronal cultures for the presence of SPCA1 revealed an SPCA1-specific immunofluorescence signal in cells identified as neurons.

Whole genome sequence data permit the study of protein families regulating cellular homeostasis during development. Here we present a study of the sea urchin Ca(2+)-ATPases made possible by the Sea Urchin Genome Sequencing Project. This is of potential interest because adult sea urchins, their gametes and embryos live in the relatively high Ca(2+) concentration of 10 mM. Three Ca(2+)-ATPases regulate Ca(2+) levels in animal cells: plasma membrane Ca(2+)-ATPase (PMCA), sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA) and secretory pathway Ca(2+)-ATPase (SPCA). The primary structures of Sp-PMCA and Sp-SERCA in the sea urchin, Strongylocentrotus purpuratus (Sp), have been published. Here, we present the primary structure of Sp-SPCA, which is 912 amino acids and has 66% identity and 80% similarity to human SPCA1. Southern blots and genome analysis show that Sp-SPCA is a single copy gene. Each Sp Ca(2+)-ATPase is highly conserved when compared to its human ortholog, indicating that human and sea urchin share structurally similar energy driven Ca(2+) homeostasis mechanisms that have been maintained throughout the course of deuterostome evolution. Annotation using the assembled sea urchin genome reveals that Sp-SPCA, Sp-PMCA and Sp-SERCA have 23, 17 and 24 exons. RT-Q-PCR shows that transcripts of Sp-SPCA are at low levels compared to Sp-PMCA and Sp-SERCA. Gradual increases in Sp-PMCA and Sp-SERCA mRNA begin at the 18 hour hatched blastula stage and peak 4-5-fold higher by 25 h at the mid to late blastulae stage.

Hailey-Hailey disease (HHD; OMIM 169600) is an autosomal dominant blistering disease. Pathogenic mutations in ATP2C1 encoding the human secretory pathway Ca(2+)/Mn(2+)-ATPase protein 1 (hSPCA1) have been identified since 2000. The aim of this study was to report a Chinese pedigree and a sporadic case of HHD and to explore the genetic mutations. The Chinese pedigree and the sporadic case of typical HHD were subjected to mutation detection of ATP2C1. The 27 coding exons and their flanking sequences were amplified and sequenced. The heterozygous C to T transition at nucleotide 2753 in exon 26 and G to T transition at nucleotide 2090 in exon 21 of the ATP2C1 gene were identified in a pedigree and a sporadic case of HHD, respectively. The C2753T transition resulted in a novel nonsense mutation of glutamine codon (CAG) to a stop codon (TAG) at amino acid residue 865 (Q865X) and the G2090T transition resulted in a novel missense mutation of glycine condon (GGA) to Valine (GUA) at amino acid residue 645 (G645V) in hSPCA1. This study should be useful for genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis for affected families and in expanding the repertoire of ATP2C1 mutations underlying HHD.

Loss of one copy of the human ATP2C1 gene, encoding SPCA1 (secretory pathway Ca(2+)-ATPase isoform 1), causes Hailey-Hailey disease, a skin disorder. We performed targeted mutagenesis of the Atp2c1 gene in mice to analyze the functions of this Golgi membrane Ca(2+) pump. Breeding of heterozygous mutants yielded a normal Mendelian ratio among embryos on gestation day 9.5; however, null mutant (Spca1(-/-)) embryos exhibited growth retardation and did not survive beyond gestation day 10.5. Spca1(-/-) embryos had an open rostral neural tube, but hematopoiesis and cardiovascular development were ostensibly normal. Golgi membranes of Spca1(-/-) embryos were dilated, had fewer stacked leaflets, and were expanded in amount, consistent with increased Golgi biogenesis. The number of Golgi-associated vesicles was also increased, and rough endoplasmic reticulum had fewer ribosomes. Coated pits, junctional complexes, desmosomes, and basement membranes appeared normal in mutant embryos, indicating that processing and trafficking of proteins in the secretory pathway was not massively impaired. However, apoptosis was increased, possibly the result of secretory pathway stress, and a large increase in cytoplasmic lipid was observed in mutant embryos, consistent with impaired handling of lipid by the Golgi. Adult heterozygous mice appeared normal and exhibited no evidence of Hailey-Hailey disease; however, aged heterozygotes had an increased incidence of squamous cell tumors of keratinized epithelial cells of the skin and esophagus. These data show that loss of the Golgi Ca(2+) pump causes Golgi stress, expansion of the Golgi, increased apoptosis, and embryonic lethality and demonstrates that SPCA1 haploinsufficiency causes a genetic predisposition to cancer.

Sixty percent of calcium in milk is transported across the mammary cells apical membrane by the plasma membrane Ca(2+)-ATPase 2 (PMCA2). The effect of abrupt cessation of milk production on the Ca(2+)-ATPases and mammary calcium transport is unknown. We found that 24 h after stopping milk production, PMCA2 and secretory pathway Ca(2+)-ATPases 1 and 2 (SPCA1 and 2) expression decreased 80-95%. PMCA4 and Sarco/Endoplasmic Reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase 2 (SERCA2) expression increased with the loss of PMCA2, SPCA1, and SPCA2 but did not increase until 72-96 h of involution. The rapid loss of these Ca(2+)-ATPases occurs at a time of high mammary tissue calcium. These results suggest that the abrupt loss of Ca(2+)-ATPases, required by the mammary gland to regulate the large amount of calcium associated with milk production, could lead to accumulation of cell calcium, mitochondria Ca(2+) overload, calcium mediated cell death and thus play a part in early signaling of mammary involution.
