Abstract
Calpain-3 is an intracellular Ca2+-dependent cysteine protease abundant in skeletal muscle. Its physiological role in the sarcomere is thought to include removing damaged muscle proteins after exercise. Loss-of-function mutations in its single-copy gene cause a dystrophy of the limb-girdle muscles. These mutations, of which there are over 500 in humans, are spread all along this 94-kDa multi-domain protein that includes three 40+-residue sequences (NS, IS1, and IS2). The latter sequences are unique to this calpain isoform and are hypersensitive to proteolysis. To investigate the whole enzyme structure and how mutations might affect its activity, we produce the proteolytically more stable 85-kDa calpain-3 ΔNS ΔIS1 form with a C129A inactivating mutation as a recombinant protein in E. coli. During size-exclusion chromatography, this calpain-3 was consistently eluted as a much larger 0.5-MDa complex rather than the expected 170-kDa dimer. Its size, which was confirmed by SEC-MALS, Blue Native PAGE, and AUC, made the complex amenable to single-particle cryo-EM analysis. From two data sets, we obtained a 3.85-Å reconstruction map that shows the complex is a trimer of calpain-3 dimers with six penta-EF-hand domains at its core. Calpain-3 has been reported to bind the N2A region of the giant muscle protein titin. When this 37-kDa region of titin was co-expressed with calpain-3 the multimer was reduced to a 320-kDa particle, which appears to be the calpain dimer bound to several copies of the titin fragment. We suggest that newly synthesized calpain-3 is kept as an inactive hexamer until it binds the N2A region of titin in the sarcomere, whereupon it dissociates into functional dimers.

Turk J Med Sci 2023; 54:86-98. [PMID: 38812636 PMCID: PMC11031166 DOI: 10.55730/1300-0144.5769] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2023] [Revised: 02/15/2024] [Accepted: 12/18/2023] [Indexed: 05/31/2024] Open
Abstract
Background and aim Calpainopathy, also known as limb-girdle muscular dystrophy recessive type 1, is a progressive muscle disorder that impacts the muscles around the hips and shoulders. The disease is caused by defects in the CAPN3 gene and can be inherited in both recessive and dominant forms. In this retrospective study, we aimed to evaluate the clinical and molecular results of our patients with calpainopathy and to examine the CAPN3 variants in Turkish and global populations. Materials and methods Molecular analyses were performed using the next-generation sequencing (NGS) method. CAPN3 variants were identified through the examination of various databases. Results In this retrospective study, the cohort consisted of seven patients exhibiting the CAPN3 (NM_000070.3) mutation and a phenotype compatible with calpainopathy at a single center in Türkiye. All patients displayed high CK levels and muscle weakness. We report a novel missense c.2437G>A variant that causes the autosomal dominant form of calpainopathy. Interestingly, the muscle biopsy report for the patient with the novel mutation indicated sarcoglycan deficiency. Molecular findings for the remaining individuals in the cohort included a compound heterozygous variant (frameshift and missense), one homozygous nonsense, one homozygous intronic deletion, and three homozygous missense variants. The most common variant in the Turkish population was c.550del. In both populations, pathogenic variants were most frequently located in exon 21, according to exon length. Variants were stochastically distributed based on consequences in CAPN3 domains. Conclusion Therefore, the NGS method proves highly effective in diagnosing rare diseases characterized by clinical heterogeneity. Assessing variants based on ethnicity holds significance in the development of precise therapies.

Abstract
Background: Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) is a group of inherited neuromuscular disorders characterized by atrophy and weakness in the shoulders and hips. Over 30 subtypes have been described in five dominant (LGMD type 1 or LGMDD) and 27 recessive (LGMD type 2 or LGMDR). Each subtype involves a mutation in a single gene and has high heterogeneity in age of onset, expression, progression, and prognosis. In addition, the lack of understanding of the disease and the vague, nonspecific symptoms of LGMD subtypes make diagnosis difficult. Even as next-generation sequencing (NGS) genetic testing has become commonplace, some patients remain undiagnosed for many years. Methods: To identify LGMD-associated mutations, Targeted sequencing was performed in the patients and Sanger sequencing was performed in patients and family members. The in silico analysis tools such as Fathmm, M-CAP, Mutation Taster, PolyPhen 2, PROVEAN, REVEL, SIFT, MaxEntScan, Spliceailookup, Human Splicing Finder, NetGene2, and Fruitfly were used to predict the influence of the novel mutations. The pathogenicity of the mutation was interpreted according to the ACMG guidelines. Results: In this study, six patients from four different Vietnamese families were collected for genetic analysis at The Center for Gene and Protein Research and The Department of Molecular Pathology Faculty of Medical Technology, Hanoi Medical University, Hanoi, Vietnam. Based on clinical symptoms and serum creatine kinase (CK) levels, the patients were diagnosed with limb-girdle muscular dystrophies. Five mutations, including four (c.229C>T, p.Arg77Cys; exon one to three deletion; c.983 + 5G>C; and c.257_258insTGGCT, p.Phe88Leufs*125) in the SGCA gene and one (c.946-4_946-1delACAG) in the CAPN3 gene, were detected in six LGMD patients from four unrelated Vietnamese families. Two homozygous mutations (c.983 + 5G>C and c.257_258insTGGCT) in the SGCA gene were novel. These mutations were identified as the cause of the disease in the patients. Conclusion: Our results contribute to the general understanding of the etiology of the disease and provide the basis for definitive diagnosis and support genetic counseling and prenatal screening.

Abstract
Calpains are a family of Ca2+‑dependent cysteine proteases that participate in various cellular processes. Calpain 3 (CAPN3) is a classical calpain with unique N‑terminus and insertion sequence 1 and 2 domains that confer characteristics such as rapid autolysis, Ca2+‑independent activation and Na+ activation of the protease. CAPN3 is the only muscle‑specific calpain that has important roles in the promotion of calcium release from skeletal muscle fibers, calcium uptake of sarcoplasmic reticulum, muscle formation and muscle remodeling. Studies have indicated that recessive mutations in CAPN3 cause limb‑girdle muscular dystrophy (MD) type 2A and other types of MD; eosinophilic myositis, melanoma and epilepsy are also closely related to CAPN3. In the present review, the characteristics of CAPN3, its biological functions and roles in the pathogenesis of a number of disorders are discussed.

BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA-MOLECULAR CELL RESEARCH 2021; 1868:119019. [PMID: 33811937 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbamcr.2021.119019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2020] [Revised: 02/28/2021] [Accepted: 03/19/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
The enzymatic characteristics of the ubiquitous calpain 5 (CAPN5) remain undescribed despite its high expression in the central nervous system and links to eye development and disease. CAPN5 contains the typical protease core domains but lacks the C terminal penta-EF hand domain of classical calpains, and instead contains a putative C2 domain. This study used the SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cell line stably transfected with CAPN5-3xFLAG variants to assess the potential roles of the CAPN5 C2 domain in Ca2+ regulated enzyme activity and intracellular localization. Calcium dependent autoproteolysis of CAPN5 was documented and characterized. Mutation of the catalytic Cys81 to Ala or addition of EGTA prevented autolysis. Eighty μM Ca2+ was sufficient to stimulate half-maximal CAPN5 autolysis in cellular lysates. CAPN5 autolysis was inhibited by tri-leucine peptidyl aldehydes, but less effectively by di-Leu aldehydes, consistent with a more open conformation of the protease core relative to classical calpains. In silico modeling revealed a type II topology C2 domain including loops with the potential to bind calcium. Mutation of the acidic amino acid residues predicted to participate in Ca2+ binding, particularly Asp531 and Asp589, resulted in a decrease of CAPN5 membrane association. These residues were also found to be invariant in several genomes. The autolytic fragment of CAPN5 was prevalent in membrane-enriched fractions, but not in cytosolic fractions, suggesting that membrane association facilitates the autoproteolytic activity of CAPN5. Together, these results demonstrate that CAPN5 undergoes Ca2+-activated autoproteolytic processing and suggest that CAPN5 association with membranes enhances CAPN5 autolysis.

Molecular landscape of CAPN3 mutations in limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type R1: from a Chinese multicentre analysis to a worldwide perspective. J Med Genet 2020; 58:729-736. [PMID: 32994280 DOI: 10.1136/jmedgenet-2020-107159] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2020] [Revised: 07/31/2020] [Accepted: 08/14/2020] [Indexed: 01/29/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type R1 (LGMDR1) can be caused by recessive CAPN3 mutations accounting for the majority of LGMD. To date, no systemic evaluation has been performed to analyse the detrimental and normal mutations on CAPN3 and its hotspots. METHODS CAPN3 variants (n=112) from a total of 124 patients with LGMDR1 recruited in four centres in China were retrospectively analysed. Then external CAPN3 variants (n=2031) from online databases were integrated with our Chinese cohort data to achieve a worldwide perspective on CAPN3 mutations. According to their related phenotypes (LGMDR1 or normal), we analysed consequence, distribution, ethnicity and severity scores of CAPN3 mutations. RESULTS Two hotspot mutations were identified including c.2120A>G in Chinese population and c.550del in Europe. According to the integrated dataset, 521 mutations were classified as LGMDR1-related and converged on exons 1, 10, 5, 22 and 13 of CAPN3. The remaining 1585 variants were classified as normal-population related. The deleterious ratio of LGMDR1-relevant variants to total variants in each population was 0.26 on average with a maximum of 0.35 in Finns and a minimum of 0.21 in South Asians. Severity evaluation showed that Chinese LGMDR1-related variants exhibited a higher risk (Combined Annotation Dependent Depletion score +1.10) than that from database patients (p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS This study confirmed two hotspots and LGMDR1-related CAPN3 variants, highlighting the advantages in using a data-based comprehensive analysis to achieve a genetic landscape for patients with LGMDR1.

Abstract
AIMS Recessive variants in CAPN3 gene are the cause of the commonest form of autosomal recessive limb girdle muscle dystrophy. However, two distinct in-frame deletions in CAPN3 (NM_000070.3:c.643_663del21 and c.598_621del15) and more recently, Gly445Arg and Arg572Pro substitutions have been linked to autosomal dominant (AD) forms of calpainopathy. We report 21 affected individuals from seven unrelated families presenting with an autosomal dominant form of muscular dystrophy associated with five different heterozygous missense variants in CAPN. METHODS We have used massively parallel gene sequencing (MPS) to determine the genetic basis of a dominant form of limb girdle muscular dystrophy in affected individuals from seven unrelated families. RESULTS The c.700G> A, [p.(Gly234Arg)], c.1327T> C [p.(Ser443Pro], c.1333G> A [p.(Gly445Arg)], c.1661A> C [p.(Tyr554Ser)] and c.1706T> C [p.(Phe569Ser)] CAPN3 variants were identified. Affected individuals presented in young adulthood with progressive proximal and axial weakness, waddling walking and scapular winging or with isolated hyperCKaemia. Muscle imaging showed fatty replacement of paraspinal muscles, variable degrees of involvement of the gluteal muscles, and the posterior compartment of the thigh and minor changes at the mid-leg level. Muscle biopsies revealed mild myopathic changes. Western blot analysis revealed a clear reduction in calpain 3 in skeletal muscle relative to controls. Protein modelling of these variants on the predicted structure of calpain 3 revealed that all variants are located in proximity to the calmodulin-binding site and are predicted to interfere with proteolytic activation. CONCLUSIONS We expand the genotypic spectrum of CAPN3-associated muscular dystrophy due to autosomal dominant missense variants.

Abstract
Calpain-3 (CAPN3) is a muscle-specific type of calpain whose protease activity is triggered by Ca2+ Here, we developed CAPN3 sensor probes (SPs) to detect activated-CAPN3 using a fluorescence/Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) technique. In our SPs, partial amino acid sequence of calpastatin, endogenous CAPN inhibitor but CAPN3 substrate, is inserted between two different fluorescence proteins that cause FRET. Biochemical and spectral studies revealed that CAPN3 cleaved SPs and changed emission wavelengths of SPs. Importantly, SPs were scarcely cleaved by CAPN1 and CAPN2. Furthermore, our SP successfully captured the activation of endogenous CAPN3 in living myotubes treated with ouabain. Our SPs would become a promising tool to detect the dynamics of CAPN3 protease activity in living cells.
