Abstract
Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) receptors (IP3Rs) play a central role in regulating intracellular Ca2+ signals in response to a variety of internal and external cues. Dysregulation of IP3R signaling is the underlying cause for numerous pathological conditions. It is well established that the activities of IP3Rs are governed by several post-translational modifications, including phosphorylation by protein kinase A (PKA). However, the long-term effects of PKA activation on expression of IP3R subtypes remains largely unexplored. In this report, we investigate the effects of chronic stimulation and tonic activity of PKA on the expression of IP3R subtypes. We demonstrate that expression of the type 1 IP3R (IP3R1) is augmented upon prolonged activation of PKA or upon ectopic overexpression of cyclic AMP-response element-binding protein (CREB) without altering IP3R2 and IP3R3 abundance. By contrast, inhibition of PKA or blocking CREB diminished IP3R1 expression. We also demonstrate that agonist-induced Ca2+-release mediated by IP3R1 is significantly attenuated upon blocking of CREB. Moreover, CREB - by regulating the expression of KRAS-induced actin-interacting protein (KRAP) - ensures correct localization and licensing of IP3R1. Overall, we report a crucial role for CREB in governing both the expression and correct localization of IP3R1. This article has an associated First Person interview with the first author of the paper.

Abstract
Cyclic AMP and Ca2+ are the first second or intracellular messengers identified, unveiling the cellular mechanisms activated by a plethora of extracellular signals, including hormones. Cyclic AMP generation is catalyzed by adenylyl cyclases (ACs), which convert ATP into cAMP and pyrophosphate. By the way, Ca2+, as energy, can neither be created nor be destroyed; Ca2+ can only be transported, from one compartment to another, or chelated by a variety of Ca2+-binding molecules. The fine regulation of cytosolic concentrations of cAMP and free Ca2+ is crucial in cell function and there is an intimate cross-talk between both messengers to fine-tune the cellular responses. Cancer is a multifactorial disease resulting from a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Frequent cases of cAMP and/or Ca2+ homeostasis remodeling have been described in cancer cells. In those tumoral cells, cAMP and Ca2+ signaling plays a crucial role in the development of hallmarks of cancer, including enhanced proliferation and migration, invasion, apoptosis resistance, or angiogenesis. This review summarizes the cross-talk between the ACs/cAMP and Ca2+ intracellular pathways with special attention to the functional and reciprocal regulation between Orai1 and AC8 in normal and cancer cells.

Abstract
Inositol 1,4,5 trisphosphate receptors (ITPRs) are a family of endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ channels essential for the control of intracellular Ca2+ levels in virtually every mammalian cell type. The three isoforms (ITPR1, ITPR2 and ITPR3) are highly homologous in amino acid sequence, but they differ considerably in terms of biophysical properties, subcellular localization, and tissue distribution. Such differences underscore the variety of cellular responses triggered by each isoform and suggest that the expression/activity of specific isoforms might be linked to particular pathophysiological states. Indeed, recent findings demonstrate that changes in expression of ITPR isoforms are associated with a number of human diseases ranging from fatty liver disease to cancer. ITPR3 is emerging as the isoform that is particularly important in the pathogenesis of various human diseases. Here we review the physiological and pathophysiological roles of ITPR3 in various tissues and the mechanisms by which the expression of this isoform is modulated in health and disease.

Abstract
Vascular tone of resistance arteries and arterioles determines peripheral vascular resistance, contributing to the regulation of blood pressure and blood flow to, and within the body's tissues and organs. Ion channels in the plasma membrane and endoplasmic reticulum of vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in these blood vessels importantly contribute to the regulation of intracellular Ca2+ concentration, the primary determinant of SMC contractile activity and vascular tone. Ion channels provide the main source of activator Ca2+ that determines vascular tone, and strongly contribute to setting and regulating membrane potential, which, in turn, regulates the open-state-probability of voltage gated Ca2+ channels (VGCCs), the primary source of Ca2+ in resistance artery and arteriolar SMCs. Ion channel function is also modulated by vasoconstrictors and vasodilators, contributing to all aspects of the regulation of vascular tone. This review will focus on the physiology of VGCCs, voltage-gated K+ (KV) channels, large-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ (BKCa) channels, strong-inward-rectifier K+ (KIR) channels, ATP-sensitive K+ (KATP) channels, ryanodine receptors (RyRs), inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3Rs), and a variety of transient receptor potential (TRP) channels that contribute to pressure-induced myogenic tone in resistance arteries and arterioles, the modulation of the function of these ion channels by vasoconstrictors and vasodilators, their role in the functional regulation of tissue blood flow and their dysfunction in diseases such as hypertension, obesity, and diabetes. © 2017 American Physiological Society.

Abstract
Ca2+ and cAMP are ubiquitous intracellular messengers and interactions between them are commonplace. Here the effects of cAMP on inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3Rs) are briefly reviewed. All three subtypes of IP3R are phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA). This potentiates IP3-evoked Ca2+ release through IP3R1 and IP3R2, but probably has little effect on IP3R3. In addition, cAMP can directly sensitize all three IP3R subtypes to IP3. The high concentrations of cAMP required for this PKA-independent modulation of IP3Rs is delivered to them within signalling junctions that include type 6 adenylyl cyclase and IP3R2.

Abstract
Inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (InsP3Rs) are ubiquitous ion channels responsible for cytosolic Ca(2+) signalling and essential for a broad array of cellular processes ranging from contraction to secretion, and from proliferation to cell death. Despite decades of research on InsP3Rs, a mechanistic understanding of their structure-function relationship is lacking. Here we present the first, to our knowledge, near-atomic (4.7 Å) resolution electron cryomicroscopy structure of the tetrameric mammalian type 1 InsP3R channel in its apo-state. At this resolution, we are able to trace unambiguously ∼85% of the protein backbone, allowing us to identify the structural elements involved in gating and modulation of this 1.3-megadalton channel. Although the central Ca(2+)-conduction pathway is similar to other ion channels, including the closely related ryanodine receptor, the cytosolic carboxy termini are uniquely arranged in a left-handed α-helical bundle, directly interacting with the amino-terminal domains of adjacent subunits. This configuration suggests a molecular mechanism for allosteric regulation of channel gating by intracellular signals.

Abstract
Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3Rs) are a family of ubiquitous, ER localized, tetrameric Ca2+ release channels. There are three subtypes of the IP3Rs (R1, R2, R3), encoded by three distinct genes, that share ∼60-70% sequence identity. The diversity of Ca2+ signals generated by IP3Rs is thought to be largely the result of differential tissue expression, intracellular localization and subtype-specific regulation of the three subtypes by various cellular factors, most significantly InsP3, Ca2+ and ATP. However, largely unexplored is the notion of additional signal diversity arising from the assembly of both homo and heterotetrameric InsP3Rs. In the present article, we review the biochemical and functional evidence supporting the existence of homo and heterotetrameric populations of InsP3Rs. In addition, we consider a strategy that utilizes genetically concatenated InsP3Rs to study the functional characteristics of heterotetramers with unequivocally defined composition. This approach reveals that the overall properties of IP3R are not necessarily simply a blend of the constituent monomers but that specific subtypes appear to dominate the overall characteristics of the tetramer. It is envisioned that the ability to generate tetramers with defined wild type and mutant subunits will be useful in probing fundamental questions relating to IP3R structure and function.

Abstract
In this study, the interaction of natriuretic peptides (NP) and bradykinin (BK) signaling pathways was identified by measuring membrane potential (V(m)) and intracellular Ca(2+) using the patch-clamp technique and flow cytometry in HEK-293 cells. BK and NP receptor mRNA was identified using RT-PCR. BK (100 nM) depolarized cells activating bradykinin receptor type 2 (B(2)R) and Ca(2+)-dependent Cl(-) channels inhibitable by 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino)benzoic acid (NPPB; 10 μM). The BK-induced Ca(2+) signal was blocked by the B(2)R inhibitor HOE 140. [Des-Arg(9)]-bradykinin, an activator of B(1)R, had no effect on intracellular Ca(2+). NP [atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP), and urodilatin] depolarized HEK-293 cells inhibiting K(+) channels. ANP, urodilatin, BNP [binding to natriuretic peptide receptor (NPR)-A] and 8-bromo-(8-Br)-cGMP inhibited the BK-induced depolarization while CNP (binding to NPR-Bi) failed to do so. The inhibitory effect on BK-triggered depolarization could be reversed by blocking PKG using the specific inhibitor KT 5823. BK-stimulated depolarization as well as Ca(2+) signaling was completely blocked by the phospholipase C (PLC) inhibitor U-73122 (10 nM). The inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor blocker 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate (2-APB; 50 μM) completely inhibited the BK-induced Ca(2+) signaling. UTP, another activator of the PLC-mediated Ca(2+) signaling pathway, was blocked by U-73122 as well but not by 8-Br-cGMP, indicating an intermediate regulatory step for NP via PKG in BK signaling such as regulators of G-protein signaling (RGS) proteins. When RGS proteins were inhibited by CCG-63802 in the presence of BK and 8-Br-cGMP, cells started to depolarize again. In conclusion, as natural antagonists of the B(2)R signaling pathway, NP may also positively interact in pathological conditions caused by BK.

Abstract
Ca(2+) release through inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (InsP(3)R) can be modulated by numerous factors, including input from other signal transduction cascades. These events shape the spatio-temporal characteristics of the Ca(2+) signal and provide fidelity essential for the appropriate activation of effectors. In this study, we investigate the regulation of Ca(2+) release via InsP(3)R following activation of cyclic nucleotide-dependent kinases in the presence and absence of expression of a binding partner InsP(3)R-associated cGMP kinase substrate (IRAG). cGMP-dependent kinase (PKG) phosphorylation of only the S2+ InsP(3)R-1 subtype resulted in enhanced Ca(2+) release in the absence of IRAG expression. In contrast, IRAG bound to each InsP(3)R subtype, and phosphorylation of IRAG by PKG attenuated Ca(2+) release through all InsP(3)R subtypes. Surprisingly, simply the expression of IRAG attenuated phosphorylation and inhibited the enhanced Ca(2+) release through InsP(3)R-1 following cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) activation. In contrast, IRAG expression did not influence the PKA-enhanced activity of the InsP(3)R-2. Phosphorylation of IRAG resulted in reduced Ca(2+) release through all InsP(3)R subtypes during concurrent activation of PKA and PKG, indicating that IRAG modulation is dominant under these conditions. These studies yield mechanistic insight into how cells with various complements of proteins integrate and prioritize signals from ubiquitous signaling pathways.

Abstract
Great insight has been gained into the structure and function of the inositol 1,4,5 trisphosphate receptor (InsP(3)R) by studies employing mutagenesis of the cDNA encoding the receptor. Notably, early studies using this approach defined the key constituents required for InsP(3) binding in the N-terminus and the membrane spanning regions in the C-terminal domain responsible for channel formation, targeting and function. In this article we evaluate recent studies which have used a similar approach to investigate key residues underlying the in vivo modulation by select regulatory factors. In addition, we review studies defining the structural requirements in the channel domain which comprise the conduction pathway and are suggested to be involved in the gating of the channel.

Abstract
Protein kinase A (PKA) phosphorylation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (InsP(3)Rs) represents a mechanism for shaping intracellular Ca(2+) signals following a concomitant elevation in cAMP. Activation of PKA results in enhanced Ca(2+) release in cells that express predominantly InsP(3)R2. PKA is known to phosphorylate InsP(3)R2, but the molecular determinants of this effect are not known. We have expressed mouse InsP(3)R2 in DT40-3KO cells that are devoid of endogenous InsP(3)R and examined the effects of PKA phosphorylation on this isoform in unambiguous isolation. Activation of PKA increased Ca(2+) signals and augmented the single channel open probability of InsP(3)R2. A PKA phosphorylation site unique to the InsP(3)R2 was identified at Ser(937). The enhancing effects of PKA activation on this isoform required the phosphorylation of Ser(937), since replacing this residue with alanine eliminated the positive effects of PKA activation. These results provide a mechanism responsible for the enhanced Ca(2+) signaling following PKA activation in cells that express predominantly InsP(3)R2.

Abstract
Phosphorylation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (InsP(3)R) by PKA represents an important, common route for regulation of Ca(2+) release. Following phosphorylation of the S2 splice variant of InsP(3)R-1 (S2-InsP-1), Ca(2+) release is markedly potentiated. In this study we utilize the plasma membrane (PM) expression of InsP(3)R-1 and phosphorylation state mutant InsP(3)R-1 to study how this regulation occurs at the single InsP(3)R-1 channel level. DT40-3KO cells stably expressing rat S2- InsP(3)R-1 were generated and studied in the whole-cell mode of the patch clamp technique. At hyperpolarized holding potentials, small numbers of unitary currents (average approximately 1.7 per cell) were observed which were dependent on InsP(3) and the presence of functional InsP(3)R-1, and regulated by both cytoplasmic Ca(2+) and ATP. Raising cAMP markedly enhanced the open probability (P(o)) of the InsP(3)R-1 and induced bursting activity, characterized by extended periods of rapid channel openings and subsequent prolonged refractory periods. The activity, as measured by the P(o) of the channel, of a non-phosphorylatable InsP(3)R-1 construct (Ser1589Ala/Ser1755Ala InsP(3)R-1) was markedly less than wild-type (WT) InsP(3)R-1 and right shifted some approximately 15-fold when the concentration dependency was compared to a phosphomimetic construct (Ser1589Glu/Ser1755Glu InsP(3)R-1). No change in conductance of the channel was observed. This shift in apparent InsP(3) sensitivity occurred without a change in InsP(3) binding or Ca(2+) dependency of activation or inactivation. Biophysical analysis indicated that channel activity can be described by three states: an open state, a long lived closed state which manifests itself as long interburst intervals, and a short-lived closed state. Bursting activity occurs as the channel shuttles rapidly between the open and short-lived closed state. The predominant effect of InsP(3)R-1 phosphorylation is to increase the likelihood of extended bursting activity and thus markedly augment Ca(2+) release. These analyses provide insight into the mechanism responsible for augmenting InsP(3)R-1 channel activity following phosphorylation and moreover should be generally useful for further detailed investigation of the biophysical properties of InsP(3)R.

Abstract
Protein conformational changes due to cofactor binding (e.g., metal ions, heme) and/or post-translational modifications (e.g., phosphorylation) modulate dynamic protein complexes. Calmodulin (CaM) plays an essential role in regulating calcium signaling and homeostasis. Herein, we report a straightforward and systematic approach to identify potential calcium- and phosphorylation-dependent CaM complexes in a proteome-wide manner. We have identified over 120 CaM-associated proteins encompassing four different classes of CaM binding in HeLa cells, namely, calcium-dependent and phosphorylation-dependent (e.g., EDD1), calcium-dependent and phosphorylation-independent (e.g., myosin IE), calcium-independent and phosphorylation-dependent (e.g., DDX3), and calcium-independent and phosphorylation-independent (e.g., DDX5). To demonstrate the utility of our method in understanding biological pathways, we showed that in vivo phosphorylation of inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate receptor type 1 (IP3R1) at Ser1598 significantly reduced the affinity of its Ca2+-dependent CaM binding. However, phosphorylation of IP3R1 did not substantially affect its Ca2+-independent CaM binding. These results shed new lights on the mechanism underlying the marked increase of Ca2+ release due to IP3R1 phosphorylation. We further showed that staurosporine-sensitive kinase(s) and phosphatase PP1 play a critical role in modulating the phosphorylation-dependent CaM binding of IP3R1. Our method may serve as a general strategy to identify and characterize phosphorylation-dependent protein complexes, to pinpoint the phosphorylation sites and associated kinase(s) and phosphatase(s) involved in the protein-protein interactions, and to functionally characterize these complexes in mammalian cells.

Abstract
The inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (InsP3R) is a versatile, ubiquitous intracellular calcium channel. Traditionally, visualizing the InsP3R in live cells involves attaching a fluorescent marker to either terminal of the protein, but the termini themselves contain binding sites for accessory molecules and proteins. Using random transposition, constructs have been developed that express the type I InsP3R with green fluorescent protein (GFP) inserted at various points within its sequence. We have used two of these constructs, one in the ligand-binding domain, and another in the regulatory domain, to investigate InsP3R dynamics within the endoplasmic reticulum. We present evidence that endogenous calcium signaling is maintained when these constructs are expressed. In addition, by measuring the fluorescent recovery after photobleaching of a subcellular region, we demonstrate that treatment with 8mM N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc), known to lead to increased O-linked GlcNAcylation of proteins, leads to a reduction in the ability of the InsP3R to travel laterally within the endoplasmic reticulum. Each construct serves as the control for the other one, suggesting that this decrease in mobility is not specific to the insertion site of GFP within the InsP3R. These constructs represent a new tool that will allow us to follow receptor turnover and translocation events.

Abstract
The inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) receptors (InsP3Rs) are a family of Ca2+ release channels localized predominately in the endoplasmic reticulum of all cell types. They function to release Ca2+ into the cytoplasm in response to InsP3 produced by diverse stimuli, generating complex local and global Ca2+ signals that regulate numerous cell physiological processes ranging from gene transcription to secretion to learning and memory. The InsP3R is a calcium-selective cation channel whose gating is regulated not only by InsP3, but by other ligands as well, in particular cytoplasmic Ca2+. Over the last decade, detailed quantitative studies of InsP3R channel function and its regulation by ligands and interacting proteins have provided new insights into a remarkable richness of channel regulation and of the structural aspects that underlie signal transduction and permeation. Here, we focus on these developments and review and synthesize the literature regarding the structure and single-channel properties of the InsP3R.

Abstract
Several studies have shown that PKA-mediated phosphorylation of IP3R1 at serines S1588 and S1755 enhances the receptor's ability to mobilize Ca2+. In contrast, much less is known about whether Ca2+ mobilization via IP3R2 and IP3R3 is regulated by PKA. We report here that IP3R2 is only very weakly phosphorylated in response to PKA activation and is probably not a physiological substrate for this kinase. IP3R3, however, is known to be phosphorylated by PKA at three sites (S916, S934, and S1832) and, thus, we examined how phosphorylation of these sites affects Ca2+ mobilization in DT40-3KO cells stably expressing either exogenous wild-type or mutant IP3R3s; an antibody raised against phospho-serine 934 of IP3R3 was used to demonstrate that the exogenous IP3R3s are strongly phosphorylated in response to PKA activation. Surprisingly, our data show that IP3R3-mediated Ca2+ mobilization is unaffected by phosphorylation of S916, S934, and S1832. In contrast, phosphorylation of exogenous IP3R1 (monitored with an antibody against phospho-serine 1755) enhances Ca2+ mobilization, indicating that DT40-3KO cells have the capacity to respond to phosphorylation of IP3Rs. Overall, these data suggest that modification of Ca2+ flux may not be the primary effect of IP3R3 phosphorylation by PKA.

Abstract
In non-excitable cells, the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP(3)R), a ligand-gated Ca(2+) channel, plays an important role in the control of intracellular Ca(2+). There are three subtypes of IP(3)R that are differentially distributed among cell types. AR4-2J cells express almost exclusively the IP(3)R-2 subtype. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) on the activity of IP(3)R-2 in AR4-2J cells. We showed that immunoprecipitated IP(3)R-2 is a good substrate for PKA. Using a back-phosphorylation approach, we showed that endogenous PKA phosphorylates IP(3)R-2 in intact AR4-2J cells. Pretreatment with PKA enhanced IP(3)-induced Ca(2+) release in permeabilized AR4-2J cells. Pretreatment with the cAMP generating agent's forskolin and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) enhanced carbachol (Cch)-induced and epidermal growth factor (EGF)-induced Ca(2+) responses in intact AR4-2J cells. Our results are consistent with an enhancing effect of PKA on IP(3)R-2 activity. This conclusion supports the emerging concept of crosstalk between Ca(2+) signaling and cAMP pathways and thus provides another way by which Ca(2+) signals are finely encoded within non-excitable cells.

Abstract
The subtype- and splice variant-specific modulation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (InsP3R) by interaction with cellular factors plays a fundamental role in defining the characteristics of Ca2+ release in individual cell types. In this study, we investigate the binding properties and functional consequences of the expression of a putative nucleotide binding fold (referred to as the ATPC site) unique to the S2- splice variant of the type-1 InsP3R (InsP3R-1), the predominant splice variant in peripheral tissue. A glutathione S-transferase fusion protein encompassing amino acids 1574-1765 of the S2- InsP3R-1 and including the glycine-rich motif Gly-Tyr-Gly-Glu-Lys-Gly bound ATP specifically as measured by fluorescent trinitrophenyl-ATP binding. This binding was completely abrogated by a point mutation (G1690A) in the nucleotide binding fold. The functional sensitivity of S2- InsP3R-1 constructs was evaluated in DT40-3KO-M3 cells, a null background for InsP3R, engineered to express muscarinic M3 receptors. The S2- InsP3R-1 containing the G1690A mutation was markedly less sensitive to agonist stimulation than wild type S2- InsP3R-1 or receptors containing a similar (Gly --> Ala) mutation in the established nucleotide binding sites in InsP3R-1 (the ATPA and ATPB sites). The ATP sensitivity of InsP3-induced Ca2+ release, however, was not altered by the G1690A mutation when measured in permeabilized DT40-3KO cells, suggesting a unique role for the ATPC site. Ca2+ release was dramatically potentiated following activation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase in DT40-3KO cells transiently expressing wild type S2- InsP3R or Gly --> Ala mutations in the ATPA and ATPB sites, but phosphorylation of the receptor and the potentiation of Ca2+ release were absent in cells expressing the G1690A mutation in S2- InsP3R. These data indicate that ATP binding specifically to the ATPC site in S2- InsP3R-1 controls the susceptibility of the receptor to protein kinase A-mediated phosphorylation, contributes to the functional sensitivity of the S2- InsP3R-1 and ultimately the sensitivity of cells to agonist stimulation.

Abstract
The IP3R (inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor) forms tetrameric Ca2+ channels in ER (endoplasmic reticulum) membranes, where channel activity is largely under the control of the co-agonists IP3 and Ca2+. In cells stimulated using extracellular ligands that persistently elevate phosphoinositidase C activity, IP3Rs are rapidly ubiquitinated and then degraded by the proteasome through as yet undefined mechanisms. Whereas binding of IP3 has been suggested to be a key event in the triggering of IP3R ubiquitination the role of Ca2+ in this process remains unknown. In the present study we use alphaT3-1 mouse pituitary cells expressing exogenous wild-type or mutant-type-I IP3Rs (IP3R1) to provide several lines of evidence that Ca2+ is also a trigger. Firstly, depletion of ER Ca2+ stores with thapsigargin blocked wild-type IP3R1 ubiquitination. Secondly, ubiquitination was blocked by mutating Glu2100 to Asp, which is known to markedly suppress Ca2+-binding to IP3R1 and the potency of Ca2+ as a stimulus for channel opening. Thirdly, mutating Asp2550 to Ala, which inhibits Ca2+ flux through the channel pore, partially inhibited ubiquitination indicating that Ca2+ released via wild-type IP3R1 contributes to triggering ubiquitination. Fourthly, and consistent with this conclusion, although suppression of increases in cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration did not inhibit the ubiquitination of wild-type IP3R1, it strongly inhibited the ubiquitination of the Asp2550 to Ala mutant. Overall, these results show that Ca2+ plays an important role in triggering IP3R ubiquitination. Additional experiments with IP3R1 containing an Arg265 to Gln mutation, which decreases IP3-binding affinity, confirmed that IP3-binding also plays a role. Finally, the mutations at Glu2100, Asp2550 and Arg265 inhibited IP3R1 degradation to an extent that paralleled their inhibitory effects on ubiquitination. We conclude that IP3R ubiquitination and degradation are triggered by the concerted action of IP3- and Ca2+-binding.

Abstract
IP3 (inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate) receptors form tetrameric, IP3-gated Ca2+ channels in endoplasmic reticulum membranes, and are substrates for several kinases, including PKA (cAMP-dependent protein kinase). Activation of PKA has been reported to either enhance or inhibit type III IP3 receptor Ca2+-channel activity, but, as yet, the sites of phosphorylation remain unknown. Here, we reveal that PKA phosphorylates the type III IP3 receptor at Ser916, Ser934 and Ser1832, and that, intriguingly, each site is located close to a putative surface-exposed peptide loop. Furthermore, we demonstrate that Ser934 is considerably more susceptible to PKA-dependent phoshorylation than either Ser916 or Ser1832. These findings define the sites at which the type III IP3 receptor is phosphorylated by PKA, and provide the basis for exploring the functional consequences of this regulatory event.

Abstract
A consensus RXRXX(S/T) substrate motif for Akt kinase is conserved in the C-terminal tail of all three inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) receptor (IP3R) isoforms. We have shown that IP3R can be phosphorylated by Akt kinase in vitro and in vivo. Endogenous IP3Rs in Chinese hamster ovary T-cells were phosphorylated in response to Akt activation by insulin. LnCAP cells, a prostate cancer cell line with constitutively active Akt kinase, also showed a constitutive phosphorylation of endogenous type I IP3Rs. In all cases, the IP3R phosphorylation was diminished by the addition of LY294002, an inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. Mutation of IP3R serine 2681 in the Akt substrate motif to alanine (S2681A) or glutamate (S2681E) prevented IP3R phosphorylation in COS cells transfected with constitutively active Akt kinase. Analysis of the Ca2+ flux properties of these IP3R mutants expressed in COS cell microsomes or in DT40 triple knock-out (TKO) cells did not reveal any modification of channel function. However, staurosporine-induced caspase-3 activation in DT40 TKO cells stably expressing the S2681A mutant was markedly enhanced when compared with wild-type or S2681E IP3Rs. We conclude that IP3 receptors are in vivo substrates for Akt kinase and that phosphorylation of the IP3R may provide one mechanism to restrain the apoptotic effects of calcium.

Abstract
Signalling by cGMP-dependent protein kinase type I (cGKI) relaxes various smooth muscles modulating thereby vascular tone and gastrointestinal motility. cGKI-dependent relaxation is possibly mediated by phosphorylation of the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor I (IP(3)RI)-associated protein (IRAG), which decreases hormone-induced IP(3)-dependent Ca(2+) release. We show now that the targeted deletion of exon 12 of IRAG coding for the N-terminus of the coiled-coil domain disrupted in vivo the IRAG-IP(3)RI interaction and resulted in hypomorphic IRAG(Delta12/Delta12) mice. These mice had a dilated gastrointestinal tract and a disturbed gastrointestinal motility. Carbachol- and phenylephrine-contracted smooth muscle strips from colon and aorta, respectively, of IRAG(Delta12/Delta12) mice were not relaxed by cGMP, while cAMP-mediated relaxation was unperturbed. Norepinephrine-induced increases in [Ca(2+)](i) were not decreased by cGMP in aortic smooth muscle cells from IRAG(Delta12/Delta12) mice. In contrast, cGMP-induced relaxation of potassium-induced smooth muscle contraction was not abolished in IRAG(Delta12/Delta12) mice. We conclude that cGMP-dependent relaxation of hormone receptor-triggered smooth muscle contraction essentially depends on the interaction of cGKI-IRAG with IP(3)RI.

Abstract
Regulation of Ca(2+) release through inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (InsP(3)R) has important consequences for defining the particular spatio-temporal properties of intracellular Ca(2+) signals. In this study, regulation of Ca(2+) release by phosphorylation of type 1 InsP(3)R (InsP(3)R-1) was investigated by constructing "phosphomimetic" charge mutations in the functionally important phosphorylation sites of both the S2+ and S2- InsP(3)R-1 splice variants. Ca(2+) release was investigated following expression in Dt-40 3ko cells devoid of endogenous InsP(3)R. In cells expressing either the S1755E S2+ or S1589E/S1755E S2- InsP(3)R-1, InsP(3)-induced Ca(2+) release was markedly enhanced compared with nonphosphorylatable S2+ S1755A and S2- S1589A/S1755A mutants. Ca(2+) release through the S2- S1589E/S1755E InsP(3)R-1 was enhanced approximately 8-fold over wild type and approximately 50-fold when compared with the nonphosphorylatable S2- S1589A/S1755A mutant. In cells expressing S2- InsP(3)R-1 with single mutations in either S1589E or S1755E, the sensitivity of Ca(2+) release was enhanced approximately 3-fold; sensitivity was midway between the wild type and the double glutamate mutation. Paradoxically, forskolin treatment of cells expressing either single Ser/Glu mutation failed to further enhance Ca(2+) release. The sensitivity of Ca(2+) release in cells expressing S2+ S1755E InsP(3)R-1 was comparable with the sensitivity of S2- S1589E/S1755E InsP(3)R-1. In contrast, mutation of S2+ S1589E InsP(3)R-1 resulted in a receptor with comparable sensitivity to wild type cells. Expression of S2- S1589E/S1755E InsP(3)R-1 resulted in robust Ca(2+) oscillations when cells were stimulated with concentrations of alpha-IgM antibody that were threshold for stimulation in S2- wild type InsP(3)R-1-expressing cells. However, at higher concentrations of alpha-IgM antibody, Ca(2+) oscillations of a similar period and magnitude were initiated in cells expressing either wild type or S2- phosphomimetic mutations. Thus, regulation by phosphorylation of the functional sensitivity of InsP(3)R-1 appears to define the threshold at which oscillations are initiated but not the frequency or amplitude of the signal when established.

Abstract
Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP(3)) and cAMP are the two second messengers that play an important role in neuronal signaling. Here, we investigated the interactions of InsP(3)- and cAMP-mediated signaling pathways activated by dopamine in striatal medium spiny neurons (MSN). We found that in approximately 40% of the MSN, application of dopamine elicited robust repetitive Ca(2+) transients (oscillations). In pharmacological experiments with specific agonists and antagonists, we found that the observed Ca(2+) oscillations were triggered by activation of D1 class dopamine receptors (DARs). We further demonstrated that activation of phospholipase C was required for induction of dopamine-induced Ca(2+) oscillations and that maintenance of dopamine-evoked Ca(2+) oscillations required both Ca(2+) influx and Ca(2+) mobilization from internal Ca(2+) stores. In "priming" experiments with a type 2 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor agonist, we have shown a likely role for calcyon in coupling D1 class DARs with Ca(2+) oscillations in MSN. In experiments with the DAR-specific agonist SKF83959, we discovered that phospholipase C activation alone could not account for dopamine-induced Ca(2+) oscillations. We further demonstrated that direct activation of protein kinase A by 8-bromo-cAMP or inhibition of protein phosphatase-1 (PP1) or calcineurin (PP2B) resulted in elevation of basal Ca(2+) levels in MSN, but not in Ca(2+) oscillations. In experiments with competitive peptides, we have shown an importance of type 1 InsP(3) receptor association with PP1alpha and with AKAP9.protein kinase A for dopamine-induced Ca(2+) oscillations. In experiments with MSN from DARPP-32 knock-out mice, we demonstrated a regulatory role of DARPP-32 in dopamine-induced Ca(2+) oscillations. Our results indicate that, following D1 class DAR activation, InsP(3) and cAMP signaling pathways converge on the type 1 InsP(3) receptor, resulting in Ca(2+) oscillations in MSN.
