Abstract
CaMKII (calcium/calmodulin-stimulated protein kinase II) is a multifunctional protein kinase that regulates normal neuronal function. CaMKII is regulated by multi-site phosphorylation, which can alter enzyme activity, and targeting to cellular microdomains through interactions with binding proteins. These proteins integrate CaMKII into multiple signalling pathways, which lead to varied functional outcomes following CaMKII phosphorylation, depending on the identity and location of the binding partner. A new phosphorylation site on CaMKII (Thr253) has been identified in vivo. Thr253 phosphorylation controls CaMKII purely by targeting, does not effect enzyme activity, and occurs in response to physiological and pathological stimuli in vivo, but only in CaMKII molecules present in specific cellular locations. This new phosphorylation site offers a potentially novel regulatory mechanism for controlling functional responses elicited by CaMKII that are restricted to specific subcellular locations and/or certain cell types, by controlling interactions with proteins that are expressed in the cell at that location.

Abstract
Stimulus-response coupling mediated by calmodulin involves several steps: a transitory increase in calcium concentration from 0.1 to 10 microM, induced by external stimuli; interaction of calcium with calmodulin, accompanied by stepwise structural transitions; the coordinated interaction with and activation of the many calmodulin-regulated enzymes and proteins. The binding of calcium to calmodulin is a cooperative and selective process that is modulated by magnesium. At physiological ionic strength, and only in the presence of magnesium, a large difference is seen between the affinities of sites III and IV (0.09 X 10(6) M-1) and sites I and II (0.0007 X 10(6) M-1) for calcium. This difference, together with the positive cooperativity previously observed, explains the stepwise conformational changes induced by calcium. The interaction of calmodulin with its target proteins requires the integrity of different portions of the calmodulin molecule. Calmodulin-regulated enzymes can be divided into three classes according to their abilities to bind with and to be activated by calmodulin fragments: enzymes which are activated by the C-terminal fragment, such as the Ca2+-ATPase and phosphorylase kinase; enzymes which require both halves of the molecule, such as cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase and myosin light chain kinase; and enzymes whose interaction with calmodulin fragments is too weak to be detected by activation, such as calcineurin and the multiprotein kinase. Thus different enzymes may be activated by different calmodulin conformers and the stepwise changes exhibited by calmodulin at different calcium levels can be used to regulate different metabolic pathways.

Abstract
We have used the fluorescently labelled calmodulin TA-CaM to follow calmodulin activation during depolarization of adult rat sensory neurons. Calcium concentration was measured simultaneously using the low affinity indicator Oregon Green BAPTA 5N. TA-CaM fluorescence increased during a 200-ms depolarization but then continued to increase during the subsequent 500 ms, even though total cell calcium was falling at this time. In the next few seconds TA-CaM fluorescence fell, but to a new elevated level that was then maintained for several tens of seconds. During a train of depolarizations that evoked a series of largely independent calcium changes TA-CaM fluorescence was in contrast raised for the duration of the train and for many tens of seconds afterwards. The presence of a peptide corresponding to the calmodulin binding domain of myosin light chain kinase significantly increased the depolarization-induced TA-CaM fluorescence increase and slowed the subsequent fall of fluorescence. We interpret the slow recovery component of the TA-CaM signal as reflecting the slow dissociation of calcium--calmodulin--calmodulin binding protein complexes. Our results show that after brief electrical activity calmodulin's interaction with calmodulin binding proteins persists for approximately one minute.

Abstract
We have investigated the mechanisms of activation of the plasma membrane (PM) Ca-ATPase by calmodulin (CaM), which result in enhanced calcium transport rates and the maintenance of low intracellular calcium levels. We have isolated the amino- or carboxyl-terminal domains of CaM (i.e. CaMN or CaMC), permitting an identification of their relative specificity for binding to sites on either the PM Ca-ATPase or a peptide (C28W) corresponding to the CaM-binding sequence. We find that either CaMN or CaMC alone is capable of productive interactions with the PM Ca-ATPase that induces enzyme activation. There are, however, large differences in the affinity and specificity of binding between CaMN and CaMC and either C28W or the PM Ca-ATPase. The initial binding interaction between CaMC and the PM Ca-ATPase is highly specific, having approximately 10,000-fold greater affinity in comparison with CaMN. However, following the initial association of either CaMC or CaMN, there is a 300-fold enhancement in the affinity of CaMN for the secondary binding site. Thus, while CaMC binds with a high affinity to the two CaM-binding sites within the PM Ca-ATPase in a sequential manner, CaMN binds cooperatively with a lower affinity to both binding sites. These large differences in the binding affinities and specificities of the amino- and carboxyl-terminal domains ensure that CaM binding to the PM Ca-ATPase normally involves the formation of a specific complex in which the initial high affinity association of the carboxyl-terminal domain promotes the association of the amino-terminal domain necessary for enzyme activation.

Abstract
Conventional myosin light chain kinase found in differentiated smooth and non-muscle cells is a dedicated Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase which phosphorylates the regulatory light chain of myosin II. This phosphorylation increases the actin-activated myosin ATPase activity and is thought to play major roles in a number of biological processes, including smooth muscle contraction. The catalytic domain contains residues on its surface that bind a regulatory segment resulting in autoinhibition through an intrasteric mechanism. When Ca2+/calmodulin binds, there is a marked displacement of the regulatory segment from the catalytic cleft allowing phosphorylation of myosin regulatory light chain. Kinase activity depends upon Ca2+/calmodulin binding not only to the canonical calmodulin-binding sequence but also to additional interactions between Ca2+/calmodulin and the catalytic core. Previous biochemical evidence shows myosin light chain kinase binds tightly to actomyosin containing filaments. The kinase has low-affinity myosin and actin binding sites in Ig-like motifs at the N- and C-terminus, respectively. Recent results show the N-terminus of myosin light chain kinase is responsible for filament binding in vivo. However, the apparent binding affinity is greater for smooth muscle myofilaments, purified thin filaments, or actin-containing filaments in permeable cells than for purified smooth muscle F-actin or actomyosin filaments from skeletal muscle. These results suggest a protein on actin thin filaments that may facilitate kinase binding. Myosin light chain kinase does not dissociate from filaments in the presence of Ca2+/calmodulin raising the interesting question as to how the kinase phosphorylates myosin in thick filaments if it is bound to actin-containing thin filaments.

Abstract
To characterize the dynamic behavior of calmodulin in solution, we have carried out molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of the Ca2+-loaded structure. The crystal structure of calmodulin was placed in a solvent sphere of radius 44 A, and 6 Cl- and 22 Na+ ions were included to neutralize the system and to model a 150 mM salt concentration. The total number of atoms was 32,867. During the 3-ns simulation, the structure exhibits large conformational changes on the nanosecond time scale. The central alpha-helix, which has been shown to unwind locally upon binding of calmodulin to target proteins, bends and unwinds near residue Arg74. We interpret this result as a preparative step in the more extensive structural transition observed in the "flexible linker" region 74-82 of the central helix upon complex formation. The major structural change is a reorientation of the two Ca2+-binding domains with respect to each other and a rearrangement of alpha-helices in the N-terminus domain that makes the hydrophobic target peptide binding site more accessible. This structural rearrangement brings the domains to a more favorable position for target binding, poised to achieve the orientation observed in the complex of calmodulin with myosin light-chain kinase. Analysis of solvent structure reveals an inhomogeneity in the mobility of water in the vicinity of the protein, which is attributable to the hydrophobic effect exerted by calmodulin's binding sites for target peptides.

Abstract
The specificity of interaction of the isolated N- and C-terminal domains of calmodulin with peptide WFFp (Ac-KRRWKKNFIAVSAANRFK-amide) and variants of the target sequence of skeletal muscle myosin light chain kinase was investigated using CD and fluorescence. Titrations show that two molecules of either domain bind to 18-residue target peptides. For WFFp, the C-domain binds with 4-fold higher affinity to the native compared with the non-native site; the N-domain shows similar affinity for either site. The selectivity of the C-domain suggests that it promotes occupancy of the correct binding site for intact calmodulin on the target sequence. Far UV CD spectra show the extra helicity induced in forming the 2:1 C-domain-peptide or the 1:1:1 C-domain-N-domain-peptide complex is similar to that induced by calmodulin itself; binding of the C-domain to the Trp-4 site is essential for developing the full helicity. Calmodulin-MLCK-peptide complexes show an approximate two-fold rotational relationship between the two highly homologous domains, and the 2:1 C (or N)-domain-peptide complexes evidently have a similar rotational symmetry. This implies that a given domain can bind sequences with opposite peptide polarities, significantly increasing the possible range of conformations of calmodulin in its complexes, and extending the versatility and diversity of calmodulin-target interactions.

Abstract
To test the relevance of the calmodulin-peptide crystal structures to their respective calmodulin-enzyme interactions, amino acid side chains in calmodulin were altered at positions that interact with the calmodulin-binding peptide of smooth muscle myosin light chain kinase but not with the calmodulin kinase IIalpha peptide. Since shortening the side chains of Trp-800, Arg-812, and Leu-813 in smooth muscle myosin light chain kinase abrogated calmodulin-dependent activation (Bagchi, I. C., Huang, Q., and Means, A. R. (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 267, 3024-3029), substitutions were introduced at positions in calmodulin which contact residues corresponding to Arg-812 and Leu-813 in the smooth muscle myosin light chain kinase peptide. Assays of smooth muscle myosin light chain kinase with the calmodulin mutants M51A,V55A, L32A,M51A,V55A, and L32A,M51A,V55A,F68L, M71A exhibited 60%, 25%, and less than 1% of maximal activity respectively, whereas the mutants fully activated calmodulin kinase IIalpha. Alanine substitutions at positions on the smooth muscle myosin light chain kinase peptide, corresponding to Trp-800 and Arg-812 in the enzyme, produced an 8-fold increase in the enzyme inhibition constant in contrast with the abolition of calmodulin binding by similar mutations in the parent enzyme.

Abstract
A synthetic gene encoding a ‘consensus’ calmodulin (synCaM) was able to substitute for the Saccharomyces cerevisiae calmodulin gene (CMDI), even though synCaM is only 60% identical in primary amino acid sequence to yeast Cmd1. Twelve different synCaM mutants were also expressed in yeast. Seven of the 12 mutant synCaMs supported germination and growth of Cmd1-deficient spores. Five of the 12 mutant synCaMs were incapable of supporting germination of Cmd1-deficient spores and, of these, four were also incapable of supporting vegetative growth of Cmd1-deficient haploid cells. The five nonfunctional synCaM mutants were expressed at levels equivalent to, or higher than, the seven synCaM mutants that were able to substitute for Cmd1; thus, the inability to function was not simply due to inadequate expression or rapid degradation. All nonfunctional synCaM mutants shared a single charge reversal mutation in the central helix (E84K), which was found to be sufficient to confer the lethal phenotype. The ability of another mutant synCaM (S101F) to support growth of Cmd1-deficient cells was dependent on cell ploidy. Another mutant (K115Y) supported spore germination and vegetative growth, but not meiosis and sporulation. The terminal phenotype of cells lacking a functional calmodulin included a dramatic accumulation of polymerized microtubules.

Abstract
We have reacted calmodulins containing cysteines substituted at positions 3 and 146 or 5 and 146 with bismaleimidohexane (BMH) to generate intramolecularly cross-linked proteins termed BMHCM or BMHCM1, respectively. Reactions were also performed with N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) in place of BMH to generate corresponding S-ethylsuccinimidylated proteins termed NEMCM or NEMCM1. The abilities of these proteins to activate plant NAD kinase, erythrocyte Ca(2+)-ATPase and bovine brain calcineurin activities were assessed. The BMH- or NEM-reacted proteins activate calcineurin activity as does control calmodulin. Kact values for Ca(2+)-ATPase activation by BMHCM and BMHCM1 are increased 10-fold relative to the control value, with no corresponding change in Vmax values. Activation of this enzyme by NEMCM or NEMCM1 is not different from the control. In NAD kinase activation experiments BMHCM and BMHCM1 are associated with a 10 to 20-fold increase in Kact values and a 60-75% reduction in Vmax values relative to the control. NEMCM1 is not associated with any apparent changes in NAD kinase activation, however, NEMCM is associated with a 10-fold increase in the Kact value. NEM-reacted calmodulin containing a cysteine only at position 3 is not associated with an increased Kact value, implying that this change is due to interactions between S-(ethylsuccinimido)cysteines at positions 3 and 146. In conclusion, cross-linking and associated distortions in the structure of calmodulin appear to have little or no effect on activation of calcineurin enzyme activity. However, bending in the central helix and/or steric restrictions associated with cross-linking increase significantly the Kact value for Ca(2+)-ATPase and NAD kinase activation, and dramatically reduce maximal activation of NAD kinase activity.

Abstract
Biotinylated derivatives of calmodulin (CaM) were prepared and their biological properties characterized by using enzyme assays, affinity and hydrophobic-interaction chromatography. Several N-hydroxysuccinimidobiotin derivatives [sulphosuccinimidobiotin (sulpho-NHS) and sulphosuccinimido-6-(biotinamido)hexanoate (BNHS-LC)] differing in spacer arm length were used to modify CaM. The shorter-spacer-arm CaM derivative (sulpho-CaM) activated CaM-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase and CaM-dependent protein kinase II; preincubation with avidin blocked its ability to activate these enzymes. The extended-spacer-arm derivative (BNHS-LC-CaM) activated CaM-dependent enzymes both in the presence and in the absence of avidin, suggesting that the longer spacer arm diminished steric effects from avidin preincubation. Other biotinylated CaM derivatives were prepared with biotinylated tyrosine and/or histidine residues (diazobenzoylbiocytin; DBB-CaM) or nucleophilic sites (photobiotin acetate; photo-CaM). These derivatives activated CaM-dependent enzymes in the presence and in the absence of avidin. Oriented affinity columns were constructed with covalently immobilized avidin complexed to each biotinylated CaM derivative. The chromatographic profiles obtained revealed that each column interacted with a specific subset of CaM-binding proteins. Elution profiles of biotinyl CaM derivatives on phenyl-Sepharose hydrophobic-interaction chromatography suggested that several derivatives displayed diminished binding to the matrix in the presence of Ca2+. Development and characterization of a series of biotinylated CaM molecules can be used to identify domains of CaM that interact with specific CaM-dependent enzymes.

Abstract
Deletion of Glu-84, Glu-83 and Glu-84, or Ser-Glu-Glu-Glu (residues 81-84) from the central helix of mammalian calmodulin is known to result in a 5-7 times decrease in its apparent in vitro affinities for three calmodulin-dependent enzymes. However, based on in vitro experiments, it is difficult to estimate how these deletions might affect in vivo cellular function. The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which requires calmodulin for growth, provides an excellent system to evaluate these deletion proteins in vivo. Based on its ability to restore normal growth characteristics to yeast cells, mammalian calmodulin is functionally identical to the yeast protein; herein we evaluate the effect of deleting residues 84, 83 and 84, or 81-84 from the central helix. Sequences encoding the deletion proteins and an unaltered control sequence were introduced by means of a yeast shuttle vector and were expressed under control of the yeast calmodulin promoter. The deletion and control calmodulins are produced at levels similar to that observed for the yeast protein, and they completely restore normal growth characteristics. This result suggests that the regions deleted from the central helix are not critical for activation of any yeast calmodulin target normally required for cell growth or division. It is likely that there are twisting and shortening motions associated with the deletions from the central helix that alter significantly the spatial relationship between the two lobes of calmodulin. The abilities of the deletion calmodulins to restore completely normal growth characteristics to yeast cells suggest that the lobes of all the deletion proteins can still be appropriately positioned in calmodulin-target complexes. This is consistent with the hypothesis that the central helix of calmodulin is analogous to a flexible tether rather than to a rigid connector between the two lobes of the molecule.

Abstract
Recently, five glycopeptides with coronaro-constrictory properties were isolated from bovine hypothalamus [(1988) Neurochemistry (USSR) 7, 519-524]. Calmodulin has been recognized in our laboratory as a target protein for the neuropeptides isolated from hypothalamus. The results of indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay have shown that the new hypothalamic neuropeptides antagonize with the monospecific anti-calmodulin antibody for calmodulin binding although they are not fragments of calmodulin. The inhibitory potency of the peptides is dependent on their concentration and the length of the polypeptide chain. Four out of five peptides are effective in nM concentration range. Ca2+ stimulates the binding of peptides to calmodulin; however, immunocomplex can be formed in the absence of Ca2+ as well. The effects of trifluoperazine and peptides on the calmodulin/antibody interaction are not additive, suggesting the cooperativity between the binding sites on calmodulin. Under physiological conditions the presence of the peptides could produce distinct conformers of calmodulin which may exhibit altered potency for stimulation/inhibition of target enzymes.

Abstract
There is a great deal known about the in vitro properties of CaM kinase II, both in terms of its substrate specificity and its regulation by calmodulin and autophosphorylation. Much of this characterization is based on experiments performed with the rat brain isozyme of CaM kinase II, although in the aspects examined to date isozymes of the kinase from other tissues appear to behave in a broadly similar manner in vitro. However, relatively little is known about the functions of the kinase in vivo. The proteins phosphorylated by the kinase (with the probable exception of synapsin I and tyrosine hydroxylase) and the role of kinase autophosphorylation in vivo remain largely unknown. Investigation of the physiological role of the kinase in brain and other tissues will be a particularly exciting area for future work. The current knowledge of the in vitro properties and the availability of cDNA clones will hopefully expedite this research.

Abstract
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.

Abstract
A family of mutant proteins related to calmodulin (CaM) has been produced using cDNA constructs in bacterial expression vectors. The new proteins contain amino acid substitutions in Ca2+-binding domains I, II, both I and II, or both II and IV. The calmodulin-like proteins have been characterized with respect to mobility on SDS-polyacrylamide gels, Ca2+-dependent enhancement of tyrosine fluorescence, and abilities to activate the CaM-dependent phosphatase calcineurin. These studies suggest that an intact Ca2+-binding domain II is minimally required for full activation of calcineurin.

Abstract
Chemically modified calmodulins have been used to investigate structural features which are important for the interaction of the activator with targets. Carbamoylation of lysine residues had no influence on the ability of calmodulin to stimulate the plasma membrane Ca2+-ATPase whereas the stimulation of the bovine brain cyclic-nucleotide phosphodiesterase was reduced up to 50%. Different species of carbamoylated calmodulin have been isolated but no differences were detected in their interaction with the cyclic-nucleotide phosphodiesterase. Modification of arginine residues by 1,2-cyclohexanedione had no effect of the stimulation of the phosphodiesterase but reduced by 40% the stimulation of the erythrocyte Ca2+ ATPase. Mild oxidation of methionines by N-chlorosuccinimide produced a number of differently modified calmodulins. The different species have been purified and the modified residues have been identified. They affected the two different test enzymes to different extents indicating that methionines in the central helix of calmodulin are of greater importance for the interaction with the phosphodiesterase, whereas methionines located in the C-terminal half of calmodulin are more important for the interaction with the Ca2+-ATPase.

Abstract
The benzodiazepine [3H]Ro 5-4864 bound specifically and saturably to an apparently homogenous, univalent species of binding site on the calmodulin molecule with an associated equilibrium dissociation rate constant (Kd) of 644 +/- 121 nM. The rates of association (K1) and dissociation (K-1) governing this interaction were estimated to be 7.66 x 10(3) M-1 sec-1 and 2.9 x 10(-3) sec-1, respectively, yielding a non-equilibrium determination of the Kd to be 379 nM. Such binding of [3H]Ro 5-4864 was protein-, pH-, and temperature-dependent and demonstrated pharmacological selectivity. Only benzodiazepine compounds (chlordiazepoxide, diazepam and Ro 5-4864) inhibited [3H]Ro 5-4864 binding to calmodulin with inhibitory equilibrium dissociation constants (Ki) less than 10 microM. The benzodiazepine compounds Ro 15-1788 and flunitrazepam did not displace [3H]Ro 5-4864 binding to calmodulin nor did a number of pharmacologically active non-benzodiazepine compounds (Ki values greater than 10 microM). Consideration of the stoichiometry yielded an approximate mole ratio of 0.90:1.0 (Ro 5-4864: calmodulin), suggesting that there is one binding site for Ro 5-4864 per molecule of calmodulin. The data reveal that the binding of [3H]Ro 5-4864 to calmodulin fulfills the major criteria of a ligand binding to a receptor. Such an interaction may underlie some of the pharmacological actions of Ro 5-4864-like compounds.

Abstract
Experiments were designed to investigate the effect of inhibitors on calmodulin's hydrophobic sites and their consequences on the activation of a target enzyme, cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase. Two fluorescent probes, 2-(p-toluidinyl)-naphthalene-6-sulfonate (TNS) and 9-anthroylcholine (9AC) were used to study the interactions with calmodulin of inhibitors devoid of direct effect on the probes. Contrary to W-7, nicergoline, nicardipine and quercetin, which decreased the fluorescence of the two probes bound to calmodulin, bepridil only decreased 9AC fluorescence but increased the fluorescence intensity at the wavelength of the emission maximum of TNS. In spite of this difference, bepridil as well as W-7 and nicergoline competitively inhibited calmodulin activation of phosphodiesterase. In addition, nicergoline also inhibited phosphodiesterase activity competitively to cyclic GMP. These results show differences in the interactions of inhibitors with calmodulin; these differences are not detected in functional studies of the effect of inhibitors on phosphodiesterase activation.

Abstract
Calmodulin contains several binding sites for hydrophobic compounds. The apparent specificity of various 'calmodulin antagonists' for these sites was investigated. The Ki values for the inhibition of calmodulin-activated cyclic-nucleotide phosphodiesterase and myosin light-chain kinase was determined. In addition, the Kd values of the same compounds for binding to calmodulin were measured. The compounds could be separated into four groups. Group I and II compounds inhibited competitively the activation of the phosphodiesterase and myosin light-chain kinase by calmodulin. Group I compounds inhibited the activation of the phosphodiesterase and myosin light-chain kinase at identical concentrations. In contrast, group II compounds inhibited the activation of the phosphodiesterase at 5-10-fold lower concentrations than that of myosin light-chain kinase. Group III compounds inhibited the activation of these enzymes by an uncompetitive mechanism. Group IV compounds inhibited the activation of the phosphodiesterase with Ki values above 10 microM and did not affect the activation of myosin light-chain kinase. Binding of [3H]bepridil to calmodulin under equilibrium conditions yielded one high-affinity site (apparent Kd 0.4 microM) and four low affinity sites (apparent Kd 44 microM). Group I compounds interfered with the binding of bepridil to the high and low-affinity sites in a competitive manner. Group II compounds interfered in a non-competitive manner with the high-affinity site and apparently competed only with one of the low-affinity sites. Group III compounds did not compete with any of the bepridil-binding sites. Nimodipine, a group III compound, bound to one site on calmodulin with a Kd value of 1.1 microM. Other dihydropyridines competed with [3H]nimodipine for this site. The group I and II compounds, trifluoperazine and prenylamine, did not affect the binding of [3H]nimodipine. These data show that 'calmodulin antagonists' can be differentiated into at least three distinct groups. Kinetic and binding data suggest that the three groups bind to at least three different sites on calmodulin. Selective occupation of these sites may inhibit specifically the activation of distinct enzymes.

Abstract
In affinity selection, calcineurin selects from a population of randomly modified calmodulins those species with which it prefers to interact. The method shows that acetylation of lysines affects calmodulin so as to interfere with its ability to interact with calcineurin. Monoacetylation of any lysine of calmodulin reduces its affinity for calcineurin by 5-10-fold. Multiple acetylations amplify the loss of affinity; none of the modifications are imcompatible with activity. The lack of selectivity of calcineurin against any particular modified lysine indicates that the loss of affinity reflects changes induced by the removal of the charged groups and suggests an important role for electrostatic interactions in the cooperative structural transitions which calmodulin undergoes upon binding its target proteins or calcium. In the presence of calcineurin, a large and specific decrease in the rate of acetylation of Lys-75 and -148 of calmodulin is observed. The reactivity of the same residues is greatly increased in the presence of calcium alone [Giedroc, D. P., Sinha, S. K., Brew, K., & Puett, D. (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 13406-13413]. Lys-75, located in the central helix, and the C-terminal Lys-148 [Babu, Y. S., Sacks, J. S., Greenhouse, T. J., Bugg, C. E., Means, A. R., & Cook, W. J. (1985) Nature (London) 315, 37-40] may act as sensors of the calmodulin allosteric transitions. Their reactivity changes in opposite directions in response to calcium-induced or calcineurin-induced structural changes. The reactivity of other residues such as Lys-21, decreased in the presence of calcineurin but not calcium, is also affected by a conformational change which is induced specifically by calcineurin.

Abstract
A method is described for rapidly surveying the effects of modifying individual amino acid residues of a protein on its ability to interact specifically with another macromolecule. The procedure has been used to examine the individual roles of the seven lysyl residues of calmodulin in its ability to bind to smooth muscle myosin light chain kinase; previous studies by Jackson et al. (J. Biol. Chem. 261:1226-12232, 1986) have suggested that certain lysines may be located close to the interaction site. Trace [3H]-acetylated calmodulin, consisting predominantly of molecules acetylated at single sites together with unmodified protein, was incubated in excess (five- to 20-fold) with smooth muscle MLC kinase to allow the modified and unmodified molecules to compete for binding to the enzyme. Subsequently, the calmodulin-enzyme complex was separated from unbound calmodulin, and the level of acetylation of each of the seven lysines of the bound fraction of calmodulin was determined and compared to that of each corresponding group of the starting preparation. Significant changes were found at only two of the lysines, 21 and 75, where the extent of acetylation in the bound fraction was three- and fivefold lower, respectively, than that in the original preparation. These results were reproducible in three separate selection experiments employing both chicken and turkey gizzard MLC kinase. It is concluded that acetylation of calmodulin at either lysine 21 or 75 markedly reduces its affinity for MLC kinase, but acetylation at any of the other lysines (13, 30, 77, 94, or 148) has only minor effects.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
