J Biol Chem 2022; 298:102138. [PMID: 35714771 PMCID: PMC9307954 DOI: 10.1016/j.jbc.2022.102138] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2021] [Revised: 06/05/2022] [Accepted: 06/06/2022] [Indexed: 01/11/2023] Open
Abstract
The plasma membrane calcium ATPase (PMCA) extrudes calcium from the cytosol to the extracellular space to terminate calcium-dependent signaling. Although the distribution of PMCA is crucial for its function, the molecular mechanisms that regulate the localization of PMCA isoforms are not well understood. PLEKHA7 is implicated by genetic studies in hypertension and the regulation of calcium handling. PLEKHA7 recruits the small adapter protein PDZD11 to adherens junctions, and together they control the trafficking and localization of plasma membrane associated proteins, including the Menkes copper ATPase. Since PDZD11 binds to the C-terminal domain of b-isoforms of PMCA, PDZD11 and its interactor PLEKHA7 could control the localization and activity of PMCA. Here, we test this hypothesis using cultured cell model systems. We show using immunofluorescence microscopy and a surface biotinylation assay that KO of either PLEKHA7 or PDZD11 in mouse kidney collecting duct epithelial cells results in increased accumulation of endogenous PMCA at lateral cell–cell contacts and PDZ-dependent ectopic apical localization of exogenous PMCA4x/b isoform. In HeLa cells, coexpression of PDZD11 reduces membrane accumulation of overexpressed PMCA4x/b, and analysis of cytosolic calcium transients shows that PDZD11 counteracts calcium extrusion activity of overexpressed PMCA4x/b, but not PMCA4x/a, which lacks the PDZ-binding motif. Moreover, KO of PDZD11 in either endothelial (bEnd.3) or epithelial (mouse kidney collecting duct) cells increases the rate of calcium extrusion. Collectively, these results suggest that the PLEKHA7–PDZD11 complex modulates calcium homeostasis by regulating the localization of PMCA.

Abstract
The calcium-binding protein calmodulin (CaM) directly binds to membrane transport proteins to modulate their function in response to changes in intracellular calcium concentrations. Because CaM recognizes and binds to a wide variety of target sequences, identifying CaM-binding sites is difficult, requiring intensive sequence gazing and extensive biochemical analysis. Here, we describe a straightforward computational script that rapidly identifies canonical CaM-binding motifs within an amino acid sequence. Analysis of the target sequences from high resolution CaM-peptide structures using this script revealed that CaM often binds to sequences that have multiple overlapping canonical CaM-binding motifs. The addition of a positive charge discriminator to this meta-analysis resulted in a tool that identifies potential CaM-binding domains within a given sequence. To allow users to search for CaM-binding motifs within a protein of interest, perform the meta-analysis, and then compare the results to target peptide-CaM structures deposited in the Protein Data Bank, we created a website and online database. The availability of these tools and analyses will facilitate the design of CaM-related studies of ion channels and membrane transport proteins.

Abstract
The plasma membrane calcium ATPase, or PMCA, functions to extrude calcium out of cells as a key component necessary for adequate calcium homeostasis in all cells. However, calcium is particularly important at synapses between neurons, where communication relies on the controlled rise and fall in presynaptic calcium that precedes the release of neurotransmitter. Here we show how to infer the real-time contribution of PMCA-mediated calcium extrusion to this presynaptic calcium dynamic and how this influences the properties of the synapse. To do this we have taken advantage of a well-studied synapse in the cerebellum. We use electrophysiology to assess the timing of short-term facilitation at this synapse in the presence and absence of PMCA2 using PMCA2 knockout mice and pharmacology and fast calcium imaging to measure the presynaptic calcium dynamics. These approaches are all highly applicable to other synapses and can help determine the contribution of PMCA, and other transporters or exchangers, to the calcium dynamics that underpin reliable synaptic transmission.

Abstract
Plasma membrane Ca2+ pumps (PMCA) extrude cellular Ca2+ with a high affinity and hence play a major role in Ca2+ homeostasis and signaling. Caloxins (selective extracellular PMCA inhibitors) would aid in elucidating the physiology of PMCA. PMCA proteins have five extracellular domains (exdoms). Our hypotheses are: 1) peptides that bind selectively to each exdom can be invented by screening a random peptide library, and 2) a peptide can modulate PMCA activity by binding to one of the exdoms. The first caloxin 2a1, selected for binding exdom 2 was selective for PMCA (Ki=529 microM). It has been used to examine the physiological role of PMCA. PMCA isoforms are encoded by four genes. PMCA isoform expression differs in various cell types, with PMCA1 and 4 being the most widely distributed. There are differences between PMCA1-4 exdom 1 sequences, which may be exploited for inventing isoform selective caloxins. Using exdom 1 of PMCA4 as a target, modified screening procedures and mutagenesis led to the high-affinity caloxin 1c2 (Ki=2.3 microM for PMCA4). It is selective for PMCA4 over PMCA1, 2, or 3. We hope that caloxins can be used to discern the roles of individual PMCA isoforms in Ca2+ homeostasis and signaling. Caloxins may also become clinically useful in cardiovascular diseases, neurological disorders, retinopathy, cancer, and contraception.

Abstract
The plasma membrane calcium ATPase (PMCA) uses energy to pump calcium (Ca2+) ions out of the cytosol into the extracellular milieu, usually against a strong chemical gradient. This energy expenditure is necessary to maintain a relatively low intracellular net Ca2+ load. Mammals have four genes (ATP2B1-ATP2B4), encoding the proteins PMCA1 through PMCA4. Transcripts from each of these genes are alternatively spliced to generate several variant proteins that are in turn post-translationally modified in a variety of ways. Expressed ubiquitously and with some level of functional redundancy in most vital tissues, only one of the four genes--Atp2b2--has been causally linked through naturally occuring mutations to disease in mammals: specifically to deafness and ataxia in spontaneous mouse mutants. In humans, a missense amino acid substitution in PMCA2 modifies the severity of hearing loss. Targeted null mutations of the Atp2b1 and Atp2b4 genes in mouse are embryonic lethal and cause a sperm motility defect, respectively. These phenotypes point to complex human diseases like hearing loss, cardiac function and infertility. Changes in PMCA expression are associated with other diseases including cataract formation, carciniogenesis, diabetes, and cardiac hypertension and hypertrophy. Severity of these diseases may be affected by subtle changes in expression of the PMCA isoforms expressed in those tissues.

Abstract
Plasma membrane Ca2+pumps (PMCA) that expel Ca2+from cells are encoded by four genes (PMCA1–4). In this study, we show that aortic endothelium and smooth muscle differ in their PMCA isoform mRNA expression: endothelium expressed predominantly PMCA1, and smooth muscle expressed PMCA4 and a lower level of PMCA1. In this study, we report a novel peptide (caloxin 1b1, obtained by screening for binding to extracellular domain 1 of PMCA4), which inhibited PMCA extracellularly, selectively, and had a higher affinity for PMCA4 than PMCA1. It inhibited the PMCA Ca2+-Mg2+-ATPase activity in leaky erythrocyte ghosts (mainly PMCA4) with a Kivalue of 46 ± 5 μM, making it 10× more potent than the previously reported caloxin 2a1. It was isoform selective because it inhibited the PMCA1 Ca2+-Mg2+-ATPase in human embryonic kidney-293 cells with a higher Kivalue (105 ± 11 μM) than for PMCA4. Caloxin 1b1 was selective in that it did not inhibit other ATPases. Because caloxin 1b1 had been selected to bind to an extracellular domain of PMCA, it could be added directly to cells and tissues to examine its effects on smooth muscle and endothelium. In deendothelialized aortic rings, caloxin 1b1 (200 μM) produced a contraction. It also increased the force of contraction produced by a submaximum concentration of phenylephrine. In aortic rings with endothelium intact, precontracted with phenylephrine and relaxed partially with a submaximum concentration of carbachol, caloxin 1b1 increased the force of contraction rather than potentiating the endothelium-dependent relaxation. In cultured cells, caloxin 1b1 increased the cytosolic [Ca2+] more in arterial smooth muscle cells than in endothelial cells. Thus caloxin 1b1 is the first highly selective extracellular PMCA inhibitor that works better on vascular smooth muscle than on endothelium.

Abstract
Plasma membrane Ca2+pumps (PMCA pumps) are Ca2+-Mg2+ATPases that expel Ca2+from the cytosol to extracellular space and are pivotal to cell survival and function. PMCA pumps are encoded by the genes PMCA1, -2, -3, and -4. Alternative splicing results in a large number of isoforms that differ in their kinetics and activation by calmodulin and protein kinases A and C. Expression by 4 genes and a multifactorial regulation provide redundancy to allow for animal survival despite genetic defects. Heterozygous mice with ablation of any of the PMCA genes survive and only the homozygous mice with PMCA1 ablation are embryolethal. Some PMCA isoforms may also be involved in other cell functions. Biochemical and biophysical studies of PMCA pumps have been limited by their low levels of expression. Delineation of the exact physiological roles of PMCA pumps has been difficult since most cells also express sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+pumps and a Na+-Ca2+-exchanger, both of which can lower cytosolic Ca2+. A major limitation in the field has been the lack of specific inhibitors of PMCA pumps. More recently, a class of inhibitors named caloxins have emerged, and these may aid in delineating the roles of PMCA pumps.Key words: ATPases, hypertension, caloxin, protein kinase A, protein kinase C, calmodulin.

Abstract
The ATPase activity of the plasma membrane Ca2+ pump (PMCA) has been reported to be inhibited by exposure of red blood cell (RBC) PMCA preparations to high glucose concentrations. It has been claimed that this effect could have potential pathophysiological relevance in diabetes. To ascertain whether high glucose levels also affect PMCA transport function in intact RBCs, Ca2+ extrusion by the Ca2+-saturated pump [PMCA maximal velocity (V(max))] was measured in human and rat RBCs exposed to high glucose in vivo or in vitro. Preincubation of normal human RBCs in 30-100 mM glucose for up to 6 h had no effect on PMCA V(max). The mean V(max) of RBCs from 15 diabetic subjects of 12.9 +/- 0.7 mmol. 340 g Hb(-1). h(-1) was not significantly different from that of controls (14.3 +/- 0.5 mmol. 340 g Hb(-1). h(-1)). Similarly, the PMCA V(max) of RBCs from 11 streptozotocin-diabetic rats was not affected by plasma glucose levels more than three times normal for 6-8 wk. Thus exposure to high glucose concentrations does not affect the ability of intact RBCs to extrude Ca2+.

Abstract
A heterozygous de novo G to A point mutation in intron 8 at the +5 position of the splice donor site of the gene for the pro alpha 1(I) chain of type I procollagen, COL1A1, was defined in a patient with type IV osteogenesis imperfecta. The splice donor site mutation resulted not only in the skipping of the upstream exon 8 but also unexpectedly had the secondary effect of activating a cryptic splice site in the next upstream intron, intron 7, leading to re-definition of the 3' limit of exon 7. These pre-mRNA splicing aberrations cause the deletion of exon 8 sequences from the mature mRNA and the inclusion of 96 bp of intron 7 sequence. Since the mis-splicing of the mutant allele product resulted in the maintenance of the correct codon reading frame, the resultant pro alpha 1(I) chain contained a short non-collagenous 32-amino-acid sequence insertion within the repetitive Gly-Xaa-Yaa collagen sequence motif. At the protein level, the mutant alpha 1(I) chain was revealed by digestion with pepsin, which cleaved the mutant procollagen within the protease-sensitive non-collagenous insertion, producing a truncated alpha 1(I). This protease sensitivity demonstrated the structural distortion to the helical structure caused by the insertion. In long-term culture with ascorbic acid, which stimulates the formation of a mature crosslinked collagen matrix, and in tissues, there was no evidence of the mutant chain, suggesting that during matrix formation the mutant chain was unable to stably incorporated into the matrix and was degraded proteolytically.

Abstract
Several antibodies against the gastric H+/K(+)-ATPase were analysed for the topological and sequence location of their epitopes. Topological mapping was done by comparing indirect immunofluorescent staining in intact and permeabilised rat parietal cells. Epitope definition was by Western analysis of intact and of trypsin or V8-proteinase-fragmented hog gastric ATPase combined with N-terminal sequencing of the fragments; by Western analysis of fragments of rabbit alpha subunit expressed in Escherichia coli; by analysis of rabbit alpha and beta subunits expressed in baculovirus-transfected SF 9 cells and by ELISA assay of synthetic octamers of one region of the hog alpha subunit. It was confirmed that the monoclonal antibody, mAb 95-111, recognised a cytoplasmic region between M4 and M5, close to the ATP-binding domain. The major epitope for monoclonal antibody mAb 12-18 was also in this region, but a second epitope was confirmed to be present in the M7/M8 region. The monoclonal antibody, mAb 146-14, was shown to recognise an extracytoplasmic epitope dependent on intact disulfide bonds, present in the rat and the rabbit, but absent in the hog beta subunit, due to non-conservative amino-acid substitutions. This antibody also recognised an epitope present in the alpha subunit of the H+/K(+)-ATPase at the M7 extracytoplasmic interface, perhaps indicating structural association of these two regions. The polyclonal antibody, pAb39, raised against the C-terminal portion of the enzyme, reacted only with the cytoplasmic surface of the H+/K(+)-ATPase, showing that the alpha subunit of the enzyme has an even number of membrane spanning segments.
