Electrostatic interactions between single arginine and phospholipids modulate physiological properties of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca 2+-ATPase. Sci Rep 2022; 12:12200.

Abstract
Arg324 of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase forms electrostatic interactions with the phosphate moiety of phospholipids in most reaction states, and a hydrogen bond with Tyr122 in other states. Using site-directed mutagenesis, we explored the functional roles of Arg324 interactions, especially those with lipids, which at first glance might seem too weak to modulate the function of such a large membrane protein. The hydrogen bond forms transiently and facilitates Ca2+ binding from the cytoplasmic side. The contributions of the electrostatic interactions to the reaction steps were quantified using a rate vs activity coefficient plot. We found that the interaction between Arg324 and lipids decreases the affinity for luminal Ca2+. The transformation rate of the phosphoenzyme intermediate is facilitated by the electrostatic interactions, and the function of these interactions depends not only on the type but also on the composition of the phospholipids. The properties observed in microsomes could not be reproduced with any single phospholipid, but with a mixture of phospholipids that mimics the native membrane. These results suggest the importance of swapping of the lipid partners of different headgroups in the reaction step. This study shows that Arg324 plays a role in the reaction cycle via complex intra-protein and protein-lipid interactions.

Structural and energetic analysis of metastable intermediate states in the E1P-E2P transition of Ca 2+-ATPase. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2021; 118:2105507118.

Abstract
Ion pumps (or P-type ATPases) are membrane proteins, which transport ions through biological membranes against a concentration gradient, a function essential for many biological processes, such as muscle contraction, neurotransmission, and metabolism. Molecular mechanisms underlying active ion transport by ion pumps have been investigated by biochemical experiments and high-resolution structure analyses. Here, the transition of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase upon dissociation of Ca2+ is investigated using atomistic molecular dynamics simulations. We find intermediate structures along the pathway are stabilized by transient interactions between A- and P-domains as well as lipid molecules in the transmembrane helices. Sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+-ATPase transports two Ca2+ ions from the cytoplasm to the SR lumen against a large concentration gradient. X-ray crystallography has revealed the atomic structures of the protein before and after the dissociation of Ca2+, while biochemical studies have suggested the existence of intermediate states in the transition between E1P⋅ADP⋅2Ca2+ and E2P. Here, we explore the pathway and free energy profile of the transition using atomistic molecular dynamics simulations with the mean-force string method and umbrella sampling. The simulations suggest that a series of structural changes accompany the ordered dissociation of ADP, the A-domain rotation, and the rearrangement of the transmembrane (TM) helices. The luminal gate then opens to release Ca2+ ions toward the SR lumen. Intermediate structures on the pathway are stabilized by transient sidechain interactions between the A- and P-domains. Lipid molecules between TM helices play a key role in the stabilization. Free energy profiles of the transition assuming different protonation states suggest rapid exchanges between Ca2+ ions and protons when the Ca2+ ions are released toward the SR lumen.

Angle change of the A-domain in a single SERCA1a molecule detected by defocused orientation imaging. Sci Rep 2021; 11:13672.

Abstract
The sarcoendoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) transports Ca2+ ions across the membrane coupled with ATP hydrolysis. Crystal structures of ligand-stabilized molecules indicate that the movement of actuator (A) domain plays a crucial role in Ca2+ translocation. However, the actual structural movements during the transitions between intermediates remain uncertain, in particular, the structure of E2PCa2 has not been solved. Here, the angle of the A-domain was measured by defocused orientation imaging using isotropic total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy. A single SERCA1a molecule, labeled with fluorophore ReAsH on the A-domain in fixed orientation, was embedded in a nanodisc, and stabilized on Ni–NTA glass. Activation with ATP and Ca2+ caused angle changes of the fluorophore and therefore the A-domain, motions lost by inhibitor, thapsigargin. Our high-speed set-up captured the motion during EP isomerization, and suggests that the A-domain rapidly rotates back and forth from an E1PCa2 position to a position close to the E2P state. This is the first report of the detection in the movement of the A-domain as an angle change. Our method provides a powerful tool to investigate the conformational change of a membrane protein in real-time.

Abstract
Sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) and phospholamban (PLB) are essential components of the cardiac Ca2+ transport machinery. PLB phosphorylation at residue Ser16 (pSer16) enhances SERCA activity in the heart via an unknown structural mechanism. Here, we report a fully atomistic model of SERCA bound to phosphorylated PLB and study its structural dynamics on the microsecond time scale using all-atom molecular dynamics simulations in an explicit lipid bilayer and water environment. The unstructured N-terminal phosphorylation domain of PLB samples different orientations and covers a broad area of the cytosolic domain of SERCA but forms a stable complex mediated by pSer16 interactions with a binding site formed by SERCA residues Arg324/Lys328. PLB phosphorylation does not affect the interaction between the transmembrane regions of the two proteins; however, pSer16 stabilizes a disordered structure of the N-terminal phosphorylation domain that releases key inhibitory contacts between SERCA and PLB. We found that PLB phosphorylation is sufficient to guide the structural transitions of the cytosolic headpiece that are required to produce a competent structure of SERCA. We conclude that PLB phosphorylation serves as an allosteric molecular switch that releases inhibitory contacts and strings together the catalytic elements required for SERCA activation. This atomistic model represents a vivid atomic-resolution visualization of SERCA bound to phosphorylated PLB and provides previously inaccessible insights into the structural mechanism by which PLB phosphorylation releases SERCA inhibition in the heart.

Abstract
Sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase catalyzes ATP-driven Ca2+ transport from the cytoplasm to the lumen and is critical for a range of cell functions, including muscle relaxation. Here, we investigated the effects of the headgroups of the 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl glycerophospholipids phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylserine (PS), and phosphatidylglycerol (PG) on sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+-ATPase embedded into a nanodisc, a lipid-bilayer construct harboring the specific lipid. We found that Ca2+-ATPase activity in a PC bilayer is comparable with that of SR vesicles and is suppressed in the other phospholipids, especially in PS. Ca2+ affinity at the high-affinity transport sites in PC was similar to that of SR vesicles, but 2-3-fold reduced in PE and PS. Ca2+ on- and off-rates in the non-phosphorylated ATPase were markedly reduced in PS. Rate-limiting phosphoenzyme (EP) conformational transition in 0.1 m KCl was as rapid in PC as in SR vesicles, but slowed in other phospholipids, especially in PS. Using kinetic plots of the logarithm of rate versus the square of mean activity coefficient of solutes in 0.1-1 m KCl, we noted that PC is optimal for the EP transition, but PG and especially PS had markedly unfavorable electrostatic effects, and PE exhibited a strong non-electrostatic restriction. Thus, the major SR membrane lipid PC is optimal for all steps and, unlike the other headgroups, contributes favorable electrostatics and non-electrostatic elements during the EP transition. Our analyses further revealed that the surface charge of the lipid bilayer directly modulates the transition rate.

Abstract
Ion pumps are integral membrane proteins responsible for transporting ions against concentration gradients across biological membranes. Sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA), a member of the P-type ATPases family, transports two calcium ions per hydrolyzed ATP molecule via an "alternating-access" mechanism. High-resolution crystallographic structures provide invaluable insight on the structural mechanism of the ion pumping process. However, to understand the molecular details of how ATP hydrolysis is coupled to calcium transport, it is necessary to gain knowledge about the conformational transition pathways connecting the crystallographically resolved conformations. Large-scale transitions in SERCA occur at time-scales beyond the current reach of unbiased molecular dynamics simulations. Here, we overcome this challenge by employing the string method, which represents a transition pathway as a chainofstates linking two conformational endpoints. Using a multiscale methodology, we have determined all-atom transition pathways for three main conformational transitions responsible for the alternating-access mechanism. The present pathways provide a clear chronology and ordering of the key events underlying the active transport of calcium ions by SERCA. Important conclusions are that the conformational transition that leads to occlusion with bound ATP and calcium is highly concerted and cooperative, the phosphorylation of Asp351 causes areorganization of the cytoplasmic domains that subsequently drives the opening of the luminal gate, and thereclosing of luminal gate induces a shift in the cytoplasmic domains that subsequently enables the dephosphorylation of Asp351-P. Formation of transient residue-residue contacts along the conformational transitions predicted by the computations provide an experimental route to test the general validity of the computational pathways.

Membrane Perturbation of ADP-insensitive Phosphoenzyme of Ca 2+-ATPase Modifies Gathering of Transmembrane Helix M2 with Cytoplasmic Domains and Luminal Gating. Sci Rep 2017; 7:41172.

Abstract
Ca2+ transport by sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase involves ATP-dependent phosphorylation of a catalytic aspartic acid residue. The key process, luminal Ca2+ release occurs upon phosphoenzyme isomerization, abbreviated as E1PCa2 (reactive to ADP regenerating ATP and with two occluded Ca2+ at transport sites) → E2P (insensitive to ADP and after Ca2+ release). The isomerization involves gathering of cytoplasmic actuator and phosphorylation domains with second transmembrane helix (M2), and is epitomized by protection of a Leu119-proteinase K (prtK) cleavage site on M2. Ca2+ binding to the luminal transport sites of E2P, producing E2PCa2 before Ca2+-release exposes the prtK-site. Here we explore E2P structure to further elucidate luminal gating mechanism and effect of membrane perturbation. We find that ground state E2P becomes cleavable at Leu119 in a non-solubilizing concentration of detergent C12E8 at pH 7.4, indicating a shift towards a more E2PCa2-like state. Cleavage is accelerated by Mg2+ binding to luminal transport sites and blocked by their protonation at pH 6.0. Results indicate that possible disruption of phospholipid-protein interactions strongly favors an E2P species with looser head domain interactions at M2 and responsive to specific ligand binding at the transport sites, likely an early flexible intermediate in the development towards ground state E2P.

Abstract
The mechanism whereby events in and around the catalytic site/head of Ca(2+)-ATPase effect Ca(2+) release to the lumen from the transmembrane helices remains elusive. We developed a method to determine deoccluded bound Ca(2+) by taking advantage of its rapid occlusion upon formation of E1PCa2 and of stabilization afforded by a high concentration of Ca(2+). The assay is applicable to minute amounts of Ca(2+)-ATPase expressed in COS-1 cells. It was validated by measuring the Ca(2+) binding properties of unphosphorylated Ca(2+)-ATPase. The method was then applied to the isomerization of the phosphorylated intermediate associated with the Ca(2+) release process E1PCa2 → E2PCa2 → E2P + 2Ca(2+). In the wild type, Ca(2+) release occurs concomitantly with EP isomerization fitting with rate-limiting isomerization (E1PCa2 → E2PCa2) followed by very rapid Ca(2+) release. In contrast, with alanine mutants of Leu(119) and Tyr(122) on the cytoplasmic part of the second transmembrane helix (M2) and Ile(179) on the A domain, Ca(2+) release in 10 μm Ca(2+) lags EP isomerization, indicating the presence of a transient E2P state with bound Ca(2+). The results suggest that these residues function in Ca(2+) affinity reduction in E2P, likely via a structural rearrangement at the cytoplasmic part of M2 and a resulting association with the A and P domains, therefore leading to Ca(2+) release.

Abstract
The sarcoendoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA) is responsible for intracellular Ca(2+) homeostasis. SERCA activity in muscle can be regulated by phospholamban (PLB), an affinity modulator, and sarcolipin (SLN), an uncoupler. Although PLB gets dislodged from Ca(2+)-bound SERCA, SLN continues to bind SERCA throughout its kinetic cycle and promotes uncoupling of Ca(2+) transport from ATP hydrolysis. To determine the structural regions of SLN that mediate uncoupling of SERCA, we employed mutagenesis and generated chimeras of PLB and SLN. In this study we demonstrate that deletion of SLN N-terminal residues (2)ERSTQ leads to loss of the uncoupling function even though the truncated peptide can target and constitutively bind SERCA. Furthermore, molecular dynamics simulations of SLN and SERCA interaction showed a rearrangement of SERCA residues that is altered when the SLN N terminus is deleted. Interestingly, transfer of the PLB cytosolic domain to the SLN transmembrane (TM) and luminal tail causes the chimeric protein to lose SLN-like function. Further introduction of the PLB TM region into this chimera resulted in conversion to full PLB-like function. We also found that swapping PLB N and C termini with those from SLN caused the resulting chimera to acquire SLN-like function. Swapping the C terminus alone was not sufficient for this conversion. These results suggest that domains can be switched between SLN and PLB without losing the ability to regulate SERCA activity; however, the resulting chimeras acquire functions different from the parent molecules. Importantly, our studies highlight that the N termini of SLN and PLB influence their respective unique functions.

Abstract
The actuator (A) domain of sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase not only plays a catalytic role but also undergoes large rotational movements that influence the distant transport sites through connections with transmembrane helices M1 and M2. Here we explore the importance of long helix M2 and its junction with the A domain by disrupting the helix structure and elongating with insertions of five glycine residues. Insertions into the membrane region of M2 and the top junctional segment impair Ca(2+) transport despite reasonable ATPase activity, indicating that they are uncoupled. These mutants fail to occlude Ca(2+). Those at the top segment also exhibited accelerated phosphoenzyme isomerization E1P → E2P. Insertions into the middle of M2 markedly accelerate E2P hydrolysis and cause strong resistance to inhibition by luminal Ca(2+). Insertions along almost the entire M2 region inhibit the dephosphorylated enzyme transition E2 → E1. The results pinpoint which parts of M2 control cytoplasm gating and which are critical for luminal gating at each stage in the transport cycle and suggest that proper gate function requires appropriate interactions, tension, and/or rigidity in the M2 region at appropriate times for coupling with A domain movements and catalysis.

Abstract
During Ca(2+) transport by sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase, the conformation change of ADP-sensitive phosphoenzyme (E1PCa(2)) to ADP-insensitive phosphoenzyme (E2PCa(2)) is followed by rapid Ca(2+) release into the lumen. Here, we find that in the absence of K(+), Ca(2+) release occurs considerably faster than E1PCa(2) to E2PCa(2) conformation change. Therefore, the lumenal Ca(2+) release pathway is open to some extent in the K(+)-free E1PCa(2) structure. The Ca(2+) affinity of this E1P is as high as that of the unphosphorylated ATPase (E1), indicating the Ca(2+) binding sites are not disrupted. Thus, bound K(+) stabilizes the E1PCa(2) structure with occluded Ca(2+), keeping the Ca(2+) pathway to the lumen closed. We found previously (Yamasaki, K., Wang, G., Daiho, T., Danko, S., and Suzuki, H. (2008) J. Biol. Chem. 283, 29144-29155) that the K(+) bound in E2P reduces the Ca(2+) affinity essential for achieving the high physiological Ca(2+) gradient and to fully open the lumenal Ca(2+) gate for rapid Ca(2+) release (E2PCa(2) → E2P + 2Ca(2+)). These findings show that bound K(+) is critical for stabilizing both E1PCa(2) and E2P structures, thereby contributing to the structural changes that efficiently couple phosphoenzyme processing and Ca(2+) handling.

Abstract
We have developed a stable analog for the ADP-insensitive phosphoenzyme intermediate with two occluded Ca(2+) at the transport sites (E2PCa(2)) of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase. This is normally a transient intermediate state during phosphoenzyme isomerization from the ADP-sensitive to ADP-insensitive form and Ca(2+) deocclusion/release to the lumen; E1PCa(2) --> E2PCa(2) --> E2P + 2Ca(2+). Stabilization was achieved by elongation of the Glu(40)-Ser(48) loop linking the Actuator domain and M1 (1st transmembrane helix) with four glycine insertions at Gly(46)/Lys(47) and by binding of beryllium fluoride (BeF(x)) to the phosphorylation site of the Ca(2+)-bound ATPase (E1Ca(2)). The complex E2Ca(2)xBeF(3)(-) was also produced by lumenal Ca(2+) binding to E2xBeF(3)(-) (E2P ground state analog) of the elongated linker mutant. The complex was stable for at least 1 week at 25 degrees C. Only BeF(x), but not AlF(x) or MgF(x), produced the E2PCa(2) structural analog. Complex formation required binding of Mg(2+), Mn(2+), or Ca(2+) at the catalytic Mg(2+) site. Results reveal that the phosphorylation product E1PCa(2) and the E2P ground state (but not the transition states) become competent to produce the E2PCa(2) transient state during forward and reverse phosphoenzyme isomerization. Thus, isomerization and lumenal Ca(2+) release processes are strictly coupled with the formation of the acylphosphate covalent bond at the catalytic site. Results also demonstrate the critical structural roles of the Glu(40)-Ser(48) linker and of Mg(2+) at the catalytic site in these processes.

Abstract
Sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase is a representative member of P-type cation transporting ATPases and catalyzes Ca(2+) transport coupled with ATP hydrolysis. The ATPase possesses three cytoplasmic domains (N, P, and A) and ten transmembrane helices (M1-M10). Ca(2+) binding at the transport sites in the transmembrane domain activates the ATPase and then the catalytic aspartate is auto-phosphorylated to form the phosphorylated intermediate (EP). Structural and functional studies have shown that, during the isomerization of EP in the Ca(2+) transport cycle, large motions of the three cytoplasmic domains take place, which then rearranges the transmembrane helices thereby destroying the Ca(2+) binding sites, opening the lumenal gate, and thus releasing the Ca(2+) into lumen. Stable structural analogues for the Ca(2+)-occluded and -released states of phosphorylated intermediates and for the transition and product states of the phosphorylation and dephosphorylation reactions were developed for biochemical and atomic-level structural studies to reveal the coupled changes in the catalytic and transport sites. Mutation studies identified the residues and structural regions essential for the structural changes and Ca(2+) transport function. Genetic dysfunction of Ca(2+)-ATPase causes various isoform-specific diseases. In this manuscript, recent understanding of the Ca-ATPase will be reviewed.

Abstract
Roles of hydrogen bonding interaction between Ser(186) of the actuator (A) domain and Glu(439) of nucleotide binding (N) domain seen in the structures of ADP-insensitive phosphorylated intermediate (E2P) of sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase were explored by their double alanine substitution S186A/E439A, swap substitution S186E/E439S, and each of these single substitutions. All the mutants except the swap mutant S186E/E439S showed markedly reduced Ca(2+)-ATPase activity, and S186E/E439S restored completely the wild-type activity. In all the mutants except S186E/E439S, the isomerization of ADP-sensitive phosphorylated intermediate (E1P) to E2P was markedly retarded, and the E2P hydrolysis was largely accelerated, whereas S186E/E439S restored almost the wild-type rates. Results showed that the Ser(186)-Glu(439) hydrogen bond stabilizes the E2P ground state structure. The modulatory ATP binding at sub-mm approximately mm range largely accelerated the EP isomerization in all the alanine mutants and E439S. In S186E, this acceleration as well as the acceleration of the ATPase activity was almost completely abolished, whereas the swap mutation S186E/E439S restored the modulatory ATP acceleration with a much higher ATP affinity than the wild type. Results indicated that Ser(186) and Glu(439) are closely located to the modulatory ATP binding site for the EP isomerization, and that their hydrogen bond fixes their side chain configurations thereby adjusts properly the modulatory ATP affinity to respond to the cellular ATP level.

Abstract
As a stable analog for ADP-sensitive phosphorylated intermediate of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase E1PCa(2).Mg, a complex of E1Ca(2).BeF(x), was successfully developed by addition of beryllium fluoride and Mg(2+) to the Ca(2+)-bound state, E1Ca(2). In E1Ca(2).BeF(x), most probably E1Ca(2).BeF(3)(-), two Ca(2+) are occluded at high affinity transport sites, its formation required Mg(2+) binding at the catalytic site, and ADP decomposed it to E1Ca(2), as in E1PCa(2).Mg. Organization of cytoplasmic domains in E1Ca(2).BeF(x) was revealed to be intermediate between those in E1Ca(2).AlF(4)(-) ADP (transition state of E1PCa(2) formation) and E2.BeF(3)(-).(ADP-insensitive phosphorylated intermediate E2P.Mg). Trinitrophenyl-AMP (TNP-AMP) formed a very fluorescent (superfluorescent) complex with E1Ca(2).BeF(x) in contrast to no superfluorescence of TNP-AMP bound to E1Ca(2).AlF(x). E1Ca(2).BeF(x) with bound TNP-AMP slowly decayed to E1Ca(2), being distinct from the superfluorescent complex of TNP-AMP with E2.BeF(3)(-), which was stable. Tryptophan fluorescence revealed that the transmembrane structure of E1Ca(2).BeF(x) mimics E1PCa(2).Mg, and between those of E1Ca(2).AlF(4)(-).ADP and E2.BeF(3)(-). E1Ca(2).BeF(x) at low 50-100 microm Ca(2+) was converted slowly to E2.BeF(3)(-) releasing Ca(2+), mimicking E1PCa(2).Mg --> E2P.Mg + 2Ca(2+). Ca(2+) replacement of Mg(2+) at the catalytic site at approximately millimolar high Ca(2+) decomposed E1Ca(2).BeF(x) to E1Ca(2). Notably, E1Ca(2).BeF(x) was perfectly stabilized for at least 12 days by 0.7 mm lumenal Ca(2+) with 15 mm Mg(2+). Also, stable E1Ca(2).BeF(x) was produced from E2.BeF(3)(-) at 0.7 mm lumenal Ca(2+) by binding two Ca(2+) to lumenally oriented low affinity transport sites, as mimicking the reverse conversion E2P. Mg + 2Ca(2+) --> E1PCa(2).Mg.

Abstract
Tyr(122)-hydrophobic cluster (Y122-HC) is an interaction network formed by the top part of the second transmembrane helix and the cytoplasmic actuator and phosphorylation domains of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase. We have previously found that Y122-HC plays critical roles in the processing of ADP-insensitive phosphoenzyme (E2P) after its formation by the isomerization from ADP-sensitive phosphoenzyme (E1PCa(2)) (Wang, G., Yamasaki, K., Daiho, T., and Suzuki, H. (2005) J. Biol. Chem. 280, 26508-26516). Here, we further explored kinetic properties of the alanine-substitution mutants of Y122-HC to examine roles of Y122-HC for Ca(2+) release process in E2P. In the steady state, the amount of E2P decreased so that of E1PCa(2) increased with increasing lumenal Ca(2+) concentration in the mutants with K(0.5) 110-320 microm at pH 7.3. These lumenal Ca(2+) affinities in E2P agreed with those estimated from the forward and lumenal Ca(2+)-induced reverse kinetics of the E1PCa(2)-E2P isomerization. K(0.5) of the wild type in the kinetics was estimated to be 1.5 mM. Thus, E2P of the mutants possesses significantly higher affinities for lumenal Ca(2+) than that of the wild type. The kinetics further indicated that the rates of lumenal Ca(2+) access and binding to the transport sites of E2P were substantially slowed by the mutations. Therefore, the proper formation of Y122-HC and resulting compactly organized structure are critical for both decreasing Ca(2+) affinity and opening the lumenal gate, thus for Ca(2+) release from E2PCa(2). Interestingly, when K(+) was omitted from the medium of the wild type, the properties of the wild type became similar to those of Y122-HC mutants. K(+) binding likely functions via producing the compactly organized structure, in this sense, similarly to Y122-HC.

Abstract
In muscle cells the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA) couples the free energy of ATP hydrolysis to pump Ca(2+) ions from the cytoplasm to the SR lumen. In addition, SERCA plays a key role in non-shivering thermogenesis through uncoupled reactions, where ATP hydrolysis takes place without active Ca(2+) translocation. Capsaicin (CPS) is a naturally occurring vanilloid, the consumption of which is linked with increased metabolic rate and core body temperature. Here we document the stimulation by CPS of the Ca(2+)-dependent ATP hydrolysis by SERCA without effects on Ca(2+) accumulation. The stimulation by CPS was significantly dependent on the presence of a Ca(2+) gradient across the SR membrane. ATP activation assays showed that the drug reduced the nucleotide affinity at the catalytic site, whereas the affinity at the regulatory site increased. Several biochemical analyses indicated that CPS stabilizes an ADP-insensitive E(2)P-related conformation that dephosphorylates at a higher rate than the control enzyme. Under conditions where uncoupled SERCA was specifically inhibited by the treatment with fluoride, low temperatures, or dimethyl sulfoxide, CPS had no stimulatory effect on ATP hydrolysis by SERCA. It is concluded that CPS stabilizes a SERCA sub-conformation where Ca(2+) is released from the phosphorylated intermediate to the cytoplasm instead of the SR lumen, increasing ATP hydrolysis not coupled with Ca(2+) transport. To the best of our knowledge CPS is the first natural drug that augments uncoupled SERCA, presumably resulting in thermogenesis. The role of CPS as a SERCA modulator is discussed.

Abstract
Ca(2+)-ATPase of skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum is the best-studied member of the P-type or E1/E2 type ion transporting ATPases. It has been crystallized in seven different states that cover nearly the entire reaction cycle. Here we describe the structure of this ATPase complexed with phosphate analogs BeF(3)(-) and AlF(4)(-) in the absence of Ca(2+), which correspond to the E2P ground state and E2 approximately P transition state, respectively. The luminal gate is open with BeF(3)(-) and closed with AlF(4)(-). These and the E1 approximately P.ADP analog crystal structures show that a two-step rotation of the cytoplasmic A-domain opens and closes the luminal gate through the movements of the M1-M4 transmembrane helices. There are several conformational switches coupled to the rotation, and the one in the cytoplasmic part of M2 has critical importance. In the second step of rotation, positioning of one water molecule couples the hydrolysis of aspartylphosphate to closing of the gate.

Abstract
The functional importance of the length of the A/M1 linker (Glu(40)-Ser(48)) connecting the actuator domain and the first transmembrane helix of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase was explored by its elongation with glycine insertion at Pro(42)/Ala(43) and Gly(46)/Lys(47). Two or more glycine insertions at each site completely abolished ATPase activity. The isomerization of phosphoenzyme (EP) intermediate from the ADP-sensitive form (E1P) to the ADP-insensitive form (E2P) was markedly accelerated, but the decay of EP was completely blocked in these mutants. The E2P accumulated was therefore demonstrated to be E2PCa(2) possessing two occluded Ca(2+) ions at the transport sites, and the Ca(2+) deocclusion and release into lumen were blocked in the mutants. By contrast, the hydrolysis of the Ca(2+)-free form of E2P produced from P(i) without Ca(2+) was as rapid in the mutants as in the wild type. Analysis of resistance against trypsin and proteinase K revealed that the structure of E2PCa(2) accumulated is an intermediate state between E1PCa(2) and the Ca(2+)-released E2P state. Namely in E2PCa(2), the actuator domain is already largely rotated from its position in E1PCa(2) and associated with the phosphorylation domain as in the Ca(2+)-released E2P state; however, in E2PCa(2), the hydrophobic interactions among these domains and Leu(119)/Tyr(122) on the top of second transmembrane helix are not yet formed properly. This is consistent with our previous finding that these interactions at Tyr(122) are critical for formation of the Ca(2+)-released E2P structure. Results showed that the EP isomerization/Ca(2+)-release process consists of the following two steps: E1PCa(2) --> E2PCa(2) --> E2P + 2Ca(2+); and the intermediate state E2PCa(2) was identified for the first time. Results further indicated that the A/M1 linker with its appropriately short length, probably because of the strain imposed in E2PCa(2), is critical for the correct positioning and interactions of the actuator and phosphorylation domains to cause structural changes for the Ca(2+) deocclusion and release.

Abstract
Crystal structures have shown that the conserved TGES loop of the Ca2+-ATPase is isolated in the Ca2E1 state but becomes inserted in the catalytic site in E2 states. Here, we have examined the kinetics of the partial reaction steps of the transport cycle and the binding of the phosphoryl analogs BeF, AlF, MgF, and vanadate in mutants with alterations to the TGES residues. The mutations encompassed variation of size, polarity, and charge of the side chains. Differential effects on the Ca2E1P --> E2P, E2P --> E2, and E2 --> Ca2E1 reactions and the binding of the phosphoryl analogs were observed. In the E183D mutant, the E2P --> E2 dephosphorylation reaction proceeded at a rate as high as one-third that of the wild type, whereas it was very slow in the other Glu183 mutants, including E183Q, thus demonstrating the need for a negatively charged carboxylate group to catalyze dephosphorylation. By contrast, the Ca2E1P --> E2P transition was accomplished at a reasonable rate with glutamine in place of Glu183, but not with aspartate, indicating that the length of the Glu183 side chain, in addition to its hydrogen bonding potential, is critical for Ca2E1P --> E2P. This transition was also slowed in mutants with alteration to other TGES residues. The data provide functional evidence in support of the proposed role of Glu183 in activating the water molecule involved in the E2P --> E2 dephosphorylation and suggest a direct participation of the side chains of the TGES loop in the control and facilitation of the insertion of the loop in the catalytic site. The interactions of the TGES loop furthermore seem to facilitate its disengagement from the catalytic site during the E2 --> Ca2E1 transition.

Abstract
We examined possible defects of sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase 2b (SERCA2b) associated with its 51 mutations found in Darier disease (DD) pedigrees, i.e. most of the substitution and deletion mutations of residues reported so far. COS-1 cells were transfected with each of the mutant cDNAs, and the expression and function of the SERCA2b protein was analyzed with microsomes prepared from the cells and compared with those of the wild type. Fifteen mutants showed markedly reduced expression. Among the other 36, 29 mutants exhibited completely abolished or strongly inhibited Ca2+-ATPase activity, whereas the other seven possessed fairly high or normal ATPase activity. In four of the aforementioned seven mutants, Ca2+ transport activity was significantly reduced or almost completely lost, therefore uncoupled from ATP hydrolysis. The other three were exceptional cases as they were seemingly normal in protein expression and Ca2+ transport function, but were found to have abnormalities in the kinetic properties altered by the three mutations, which happened to be in the three DD pedigrees found by us previously (Sato, K., Yamasaki, K., Daiho, T., Miyauchi, Y., Takahashi, H., Ishida-Yamamoto, A., Nakamura, S., Iizuka, H., and Suzuki, H. (2004) J. Biol. Chem. 279, 35595-35603). Collectively, our results indicated that in most cases (48 of 51) DD mutations cause severe disruption of Ca2+ homeostasis by the defects in protein expression and/or transport function and hence DD, but even a slight disturbance of the homeostasis will result in the disease. Our results also provided further insight into the structure-function relationship of SERCAs and revealed critical regions and residues of the enzyme.

Abstract
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(+).

Abstract
Functional roles of seven hydrophobic residues on the interface between the actuator (A) and phosphorylation (P) domains of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase were explored by alanine and serine substitutions. The residues examined were Ile179/Leu180/Ile232 on the A domain, Val705/Val726 on the P domain, and Leu119/Tyr122 on the loop linking the A domain and M2 (the second transmembrane helix). These residues gather to form a hydrophobic cluster around Tyr122 in the crystal structures of Ca2+-ATPase in Ca2+-unbound E2 (unphosphorylated) and E2P (phosphorylated) states but are far apart in those of Ca2+-bound E1 (unphosphorylated) and E1P (phosphorylated) states. The substitution-effects were also compared with those of Ile235 on the A domain/M3 linker and those of T181GE of the A domain, since they are in the immediate vicinity of the Tyr122-cluster. All these substitutions almost completely inhibited ATPase activity without inhibiting Ca2+-activated E1P formation from ATP. Substitutions of Ile235 and T181GE blocked the E1P to E2P transition, whereas those in the Tyr122-cluster blocked the subsequent E2P hydrolysis. Substitutions of Ile235 and Glu183 also blocked EP hydrolysis. Results indicate that the Tyr122-cluster is formed during the E1P to E2P transition to configure the catalytic site and position Glu183 properly for hydrolyzing the acylphosphate. Ile235 on the A domain/M3 linker likely forms hydrophobic interactions with the A domain and thereby allowing the strain of this linker to be utilized for large motions of the A domain during these processes. The Tyr122-cluster, Ile235, and T181GE thus seem to have different roles and are critical in the successive events in processing phosphorylated intermediates to transport Ca2+.

Abstract
Point mutants with alterations to amino acid residues Thr(247), Pro(248), Glu(340), Asp(813), Arg(819), and Arg(822) of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase were analyzed by transient kinetic measurements. In the Ca(2+)-ATPase crystal structures, most of these residues participate in a hydrogen-bonding network between the phosphorylation domain (domain P), the third transmembrane helix (M3), and the cytoplasmic loop connecting the sixth and the seventh transmembrane helices (L6-7). In several of the mutants, a pronounced phosphorylation "overshoot" was observed upon reaction of the Ca(2+)-bound enzyme with ATP, because of accumulation of dephosphoenzyme at steady state. Mutations of Glu(340) and its partners, Thr(247) and Arg(822), in the bonding network markedly slowed the Ca(2+) binding transition (E2 --> E1 --> Ca(2)E1) as well as Ca(2+) dissociation from Ca(2+) site II back toward the cytosol but did not affect the apparent affinity for vanadate. These mutations may have caused a slowing, in both directions, of the conformational change associated directly with Ca(2+) interaction at Ca(2+) site II. Because mutation of Asp(813) inhibited the Ca(2+) binding transition, but not Ca(2+) dissociation, and increased the apparent affinity for vanadate, the effect on the Ca(2+) binding transition seems in this case to be exerted by slowing the E2 --> E1 conformational change. Because the rate was not significantly enhanced by a 10-fold increase of the Ca(2+) concentration, the slowing is not the consequence of reduced affinity of any pre-binding site for Ca(2+). Furthermore, the mutations interfered in specific ways with the phosphoenzyme processing steps of the transport cycle; the transition from ADP-sensitive phosphoenzyme to ADP-insensitive phosphoenzyme (Ca(2)E1P --> E2P) was accelerated by mutations perturbing the interactions mediated by Glu(340) and Asp(813) and inhibited by mutation of Pro(248), and mutations of Thr(247) induced charge-specific changes of the rate of dephosphorylation of E2P.

Abstract
P-type ion transporting ATPases are ATP-powered ion pumps that establish ion concentration gradients across biological membranes. Transfer of bound cations to the lumenal or extracellular side occurs while the ATPase is phosphorylated. Here we report at 2.3 A resolution the structure of the calcium-ATPase of skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum, a representative P-type ATPase that is crystallized in the absence of Ca2+ but in the presence of magnesium fluoride, a stable phosphate analogue. This and other crystal structures determined previously provide atomic models for all four principal states in the reaction cycle. These structures show that the three cytoplasmic domains rearrange to move six out of ten transmembrane helices, thereby changing the affinity of the Ca2+-binding sites and the gating of the ion pathway. Release of ADP triggers the opening of the lumenal gate and release of phosphate its closure, effected mainly through movement of the A-domain, the actuator of transmembrane gates.

Abstract
The possible functional abnormalities in three different Darier disease-causing Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA2b) mutants, Ile(274) --> Val at the lumenal end of M3, Leu(321) --> Phe on the cytoplasmic part of M4, and Met(719) --> Ile in P domain, were explored, because they exhibited nearly normal expression and localization in COS-1 cells and the high ATPase and coupled Ca(2+) transport activities that were essentially identical (L321F) or slightly lower (I274V by approximately 35% and M719I by approximately 30%) as compared with those of the wild type. These mutations happened to be in Japanese patients found previously by us. Kinetic analyses revealed that each of the mutants possesses distinct types of abnormalities; M719I and L321F possess the 2-3-fold reduced affinity for cytoplasmic Ca(2+), whereas I274V possesses the normal high affinity. L321F exhibited also the remarkably reduced sensitivity to the feedback inhibition of the transport cycle by accumulated lumenal Ca(2+), as demonstrated with the effect of Ca(2+) ionophore on ATPase activity and more specifically with the effects of Ca(2+) (up to 50 mm) on the decay of phosphoenzyme intermediates. The results on I274V and M719I suggest that the physiological requirement for Ca(2+) homeostasis in keratinocytes to avoid haploinsufficiency is very strict, probably much more than considered previously. The insensitivity to lumenal Ca(2+) in L321F likely brings the lumenal Ca(2+) to an abnormally elevated level. The three mutants with their distinctively altered kinetic properties will thus likely cause different types of perturbation of intracellular Ca(2+) homeostasis, but nevertheless all types of perturbation result in Darier disease. It might be possible that the observed unique feature of L321F could possibly be associated with the specific symptoms in the pedigree with this mutation, neuropsychiatric disorder, and behavior problems. The results also provided further insight into the global nature of conformational changes of SERCAs for ATP-driven Ca(2+) transport.

Abstract
By measuring the phosphorylation levels of individual proteolytic fragments of SERCA1a separated by electrophoresis after their phosphorylation, we were able to study the catalytic properties of a p95C-p14N complex arising from SERCA1a cleavage by proteinase K between Leu(119) and Lys(120), in the loop linking the A-domain with the second transmembrane segment. ATP hydrolysis by the complex was very strongly inhibited, although ATP-dependent phosphorylation and the conversion of the ADP-sensitive E1P form to E2P still occurred at appreciable rates. However, the rate of subsequent dephosphorylation of E2P was inhibited to a dramatic extent, and this was also the case for the rate of "backdoor" formation of E2P from E2 and P(i). E2P formation from E2 at equilibrium nevertheless indicated little change in the apparent affinity for P(i) or Mg(2+), while binding of orthovanadate was weaker. The p95C-p14N complex also had a slightly reduced affinity for Ca(2+) and exhibited a reduced rate for its Ca(2+)-dependent transition from E2 to Ca(2)E1. Thus, disruption of the N-terminal link of the A-domain with the transmembrane region seems to shift the conformational equilibria of Ca(2+)-ATPase from the E1/E1P toward the E2/E2P states and to increase the activation energy for dephosphorylation of Ca(2+)-ATPase, reviving the old idea of the A-domain being a phosphatase domain as part of the transduction machinery.

Distinct natures of beryllium fluoride-bound, aluminum fluoride-bound, and magnesium fluoride-bound stable analogues of an ADP-insensitive phosphoenzyme intermediate of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase: changes in catalytic and transport sites during phosphoenzyme hydrolysis.

Abstract
The structural natures of stable analogues for the ADP-insensitive phosphoenzyme (E2P) of Ca(2+)-ATPase formed in sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles, i.e. the enzymes with bound beryllium fluoride (BeF.E2), bound aluminum fluoride (AlF.E2), and bound magnesium fluoride (MgF.E2), were explored and compared with those of actual E2P formed from P(i) without Ca(2+). Changes in trinitrophenyl-AMP fluorescence revealed that the catalytic site is strongly hydrophobic in BeF.E2 as in E2P but hydrophilic in MgF.E2 and AlF.E2; yet, the three cytoplasmic domains are compactly organized in these states. Thapsigargin, which was shown in the crystal structure to fix the transmembrane helices and, thus, the postulated Ca(2+) release pathway to lumen in a closed state, largely reduced the tryptophan fluorescence in BeF.E2 as in E2P, but only very slightly (hence, the release pathway is likely closed without thapsigargin) in MgF.E2 and AlF.E2 as in dephosphorylated enzyme. Consistently, the completely suppressed Ca(2+)-ATPase activity in BeF-treated vesicles was rapidly restored in the presence of ionophore A23187 but not in its absence by incubation with Ca(2+) (over several millimolar concentrations) at pH 6, and, therefore, lumenal Ca(2+) is accessible to reactivate the enzyme. In contrast, no or only very slow restoration was observed with vesicles treated with MgF and AlF even with A23187. BeF.E2 thus has the features very similar to those characteristic of the E2P ground state, although AlF.E2 and MgF.E2 most likely mimic the transition or product state for the E2P hydrolysis, during which the hydrophobic nature around the phosphorylation site is lost and the Ca(2+) release pathway is closed. The change in hydrophobic nature is probably associated with the change in phosphate geometry from the covalently bound tetrahedral ground state (BeF(3)(-)) to trigonal bipyramidal transition state (AlF(3) or AlF(4)(-)) and further to tetrahedral product state (MgF(4)(2-)), and such change likely rearranges transmembrane helices to prevent access and leakage of lumenal Ca(2+).
