Abstract
Alpha-synuclein (aSN) is a membrane-associated and intrinsically disordered protein, well known for pathological aggregation in neurodegeneration. However, the physiological function of aSN is disputed. Pull-down experiments have pointed to plasma membrane Ca2+ -ATPase (PMCA) as a potential interaction partner. From proximity ligation assays, we find that aSN and PMCA colocalize at neuronal synapses, and we show that calcium expulsion is activated by aSN and PMCA. We further show that soluble, monomeric aSN activates PMCA at par with calmodulin, but independent of the autoinhibitory domain of PMCA, and highly dependent on acidic phospholipids and membrane-anchoring properties of aSN. On PMCA, the key site is mapped to the acidic lipid-binding site, located within a disordered PMCA-specific loop connecting the cytosolic A domain and transmembrane segment 3. Our studies point toward a novel physiological role of monomeric aSN as a stimulator of calcium clearance in neurons through activation of PMCA.

J Biol Chem 2022; 298:102138.

Abstract
The plasma membrane calcium ATPase (PMCA) extrudes calcium from the cytosol to the extracellular space to terminate calcium-dependent signaling. Although the distribution of PMCA is crucial for its function, the molecular mechanisms that regulate the localization of PMCA isoforms are not well understood. PLEKHA7 is implicated by genetic studies in hypertension and the regulation of calcium handling. PLEKHA7 recruits the small adapter protein PDZD11 to adherens junctions, and together they control the trafficking and localization of plasma membrane associated proteins, including the Menkes copper ATPase. Since PDZD11 binds to the C-terminal domain of b-isoforms of PMCA, PDZD11 and its interactor PLEKHA7 could control the localization and activity of PMCA. Here, we test this hypothesis using cultured cell model systems. We show using immunofluorescence microscopy and a surface biotinylation assay that KO of either PLEKHA7 or PDZD11 in mouse kidney collecting duct epithelial cells results in increased accumulation of endogenous PMCA at lateral cell–cell contacts and PDZ-dependent ectopic apical localization of exogenous PMCA4x/b isoform. In HeLa cells, coexpression of PDZD11 reduces membrane accumulation of overexpressed PMCA4x/b, and analysis of cytosolic calcium transients shows that PDZD11 counteracts calcium extrusion activity of overexpressed PMCA4x/b, but not PMCA4x/a, which lacks the PDZ-binding motif. Moreover, KO of PDZD11 in either endothelial (bEnd.3) or epithelial (mouse kidney collecting duct) cells increases the rate of calcium extrusion. Collectively, these results suggest that the PLEKHA7–PDZD11 complex modulates calcium homeostasis by regulating the localization of PMCA.

Abstract
Varying salinities of coastal waters are likely to affect the physiology and ion transport capabilities of calcifying marine organisms such as bivalves. To investigate the physiological effect of decreased environmental salinity in bivalves, adult oysters (Crassostrea gigas) were exposed for 14 days to 50% seawater (14) and the effects on mantle ion transport, electrophysiology and the expression of Ca2+ transporters and channels relative to animals maintained in full strength sea water (28) was evaluated. Exposure of oysters to a salinity of 14 decreased the active mantle transepithelial ion transport and specifically affected Ca2+ transfer. Gene expression of the Na+/K+-ATPase and the sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase was decreased whereas the expression of the T-type voltage-gated Ca channel and the Na+/Ca2+-exchanger increased compared to animals maintained in full SW. The results indicate that decreased environmental salinities will most likely affect not only osmoregulation but also bivalve biomineralization and shell formation.

Abstract
Giant clams live in symbiosis with extracellular zooxanthellae and display high rates of growth and shell formation (calcification) in light. Light-enhanced calcification requires an increase in the supply of Ca2+ to, and simultaneously an augmented removal of H+ from, the extrapallial fluid where shell formation occurs. We have obtained the complete coding cDNA sequence of Plasma Membrane Ca2+-ATPase (PMCA) from the thin and whitish inner mantle, which is in touch with the extrapallial fluid, of the giant clam Tridacna squamosa. The deduced PMCA sequence consisted of an apical targeting element. Immunofluorescence microscopy confirmed that PMCA had an apical localization in the shell-facing epithelium of the inner mantle, whereby it can actively secrete Ca2+ in exchange for H+. More importantly, the apical PMCA-immunofluorescence of the shell-facing epithelium of the inner mantle increased significantly after 12 h of exposure to light. The transcript and protein levels of PMCA/PMCA also increased significantly in the inner mantle after 6 or 12 h of light exposure. These results offer insights into a light-dependable mechanism of shell formation in T. squamosa and a novel explanation of light-enhanced calcification in general. As the inner mantle normally lacks light sensitive pigments, our results support a previous proposition that symbiotic zooxanthellae, particularly those in the colorful and extensible outer mantle, may act as light-sensing elements for the host clam.

Abstract
The new G protein-coupled estrogen receptor 1 (GPER/GPR30) plays important roles in many organ systems. The plasma membrane Ca(2+)-ATPase (PMCA) is essential for removal of cytoplasmic Ca(2+) and for shaping the time courses of Ca(2+)-dependent activities. Here, we show that PMCA and GPER/GPR30 physically interact and functionally influence each other. In primary endothelial cells, GPER/GPR30 agonist G-1 decreases PMCA-mediated Ca(2+) extrusion by promoting PMCA tyrosine phosphorylation. GPER/GPR30 overexpression decreases PMCA activity, and G-1 further potentiates this effect. GPER/GPR30 knockdown increases PMCA activity, whereas PMCA knockdown substantially reduces GPER/GPR30-mediated phosphorylation of the extracellular signal-related kinase (ERK1/2). GPER/GPR30 co-immunoprecipitates with PMCA with or without treatment with 17β-estradiol, thapsigargin, or G-1. Heterologously expressed GPER/GPR30 in HEK 293 cells co-localizes with PMCA4b, the main endothelial PMCA isoform. Endothelial cells robustly express the PDZ post-synaptic density protein (PSD)-95, whose knockdown reduces the association between GPER/GPR30 and PMCA. Additionally, the association between PMCA4b and GPER/GPR30 is substantially reduced by truncation of either or both of their C-terminal PDZ-binding motifs. Functionally, inhibition of PMCA activity is significantly reduced by truncation of GPER/GPR30's C-terminal PDZ-binding motif. These data strongly indicate that GPER/GPR30 and PMCA4b form a hetero-oligomeric complex in part via the anchoring action of PSD-95, in which they constitutively affect each other's function. Activation of GPER/GPR30 further inhibits PMCA activity through tyrosine phosphorylation of the pump. These interactions represent cross-talk between Ca(2+) signaling and GPER/GPR30-mediated activities.

Abstract
Fast inhibitory glycinergic transmission occurs in spinal cord, brainstem, and retina to modulate the processing of motor and sensory information. After synaptic vesicle fusion, glycine is recovered back to the presynaptic terminal by the neuronal glycine transporter 2 (GlyT2) to maintain quantal glycine content in synaptic vesicles. The loss of presynaptic GlyT2 drastically impairs the refilling of glycinergic synaptic vesicles and severely disrupts neurotransmission. Indeed, mutations in the gene encoding GlyT2 are the main presynaptic cause of hyperekplexia in humans. Here, we show a novel endogenous regulatory mechanism that can modulate GlyT2 activity based on a compartmentalized interaction between GlyT2, neuronal plasma membrane Ca(2+)-ATPase (PMCA) isoforms 2 and 3, and Na(+)/Ca(2+)-exchanger 1 (NCX1). This GlyT2·PMCA2,3·NCX1 complex is found in lipid raft subdomains where GlyT2 has been previously found to be fully active. We show that endogenous PMCA and NCX activities are necessary for GlyT2 activity and that this modulation depends on lipid raft integrity. Besides, we propose a model in which GlyT2·PMCA2-3·NCX complex would help Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase in controlling local Na(+) increases derived from GlyT2 activity after neurotransmitter release.

Abstract
Background The bulk of human genes undergo alternative splicing (AS) upon response to physiological stimuli. AS is a great source of protein diversity and biological processes and is associated with the development of many diseases. Pheochromocytoma is a neuroendocrine tumor, characterized by an excessive Ca2+-dependent secretion of catecholamines. This underlines the importance of balanced control of calcium transport via regulation of gene expression pattern, including different calcium transport systems, such as plasma membrane Ca2+-ATPases (PMCAs), abundantly expressed in pheochromocytoma chromaffin cells (PC12 cells). PMCAs are encoded by four genes (Atp2b1, Atp2b2, Atp2b3, Atp2b4), whose transcript products undergo alternative splicing giving almost 30 variants. Results In this scientific report, we propose a novel mechanism of regulation of PMCA alternative splicing in PC12 cells through cooperation of the nuclear factor of activated T-cells (NFAT) and histone deacetylases (HDACs). Luciferase assays showed increased activity of NFAT in PC12 cells, which was associated with altered expression of PMCA. RT-PCR experiments suggested that inhibition of the transcriptional activity of NFAT might result in the rearrangement of PMCA splicing variants in PC12 cells. NFAT inhibition led to dominant expression of 2x/c, 3x/a and 4x/a PMCA variants, while in untreated cells the 2w,z/b, 3z,x/b,c,e,f, and 4x/b variants were found as well. Furthermore, chromatin immunoprecipitation experiments showed that NFAT1-HDAC4 or NFAT3-HDAC4 complexes might be involved in regulation of PMCA2x splicing variant generation. Conclusions We suggest that the influence of NFAT/HDAC on PMCA isoform composition might be important for altered dopamine secretion by PC12 cells.

Abstract
Electroneutral NaCl absorption in the ileum and colon is mediated by downregulated in adenoma (DRA) (Cl⁻/HCO₃⁻ exchanger; SLC26A3) and Na⁺/H⁺ exchanger 3 (NHE3, SLC9A3). Surface expression of transport proteins undergoes basal and regulated recycling by endo- and exocytosis. Expression and activity of DRA in the plasma membrane depend on intact lipid rafts, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-kinase), and the PDZ interaction of DRA. However, it is unknown how the PDZ interaction of DRA affects its trafficking to the cell surface. Therefore, the (re)cycling pathway of DRA was investigated in HEK cells stably expressing enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP)-DRA or EGFP-DRA-ETKFminus (a mutant lacking the PDZ interaction motif). Early, late, and recycling endosomes were immunoisolated by precipitating stably transfected mCherry-hemagglutinin (HA)-Rab5a, -7a, or -11a. EGFP-DRA and EGFP-DRA-ETKFminus were equally present in early endosomes. In recycling endosomes, wild-type DRA was preferentially present, whereas, in late endosomes, DRA-ETKF-minus dominated. Correspondingly, EGFP-DRA colocalized with mCherry-HA-Rab11a in recycling endosomes, whereas EGFP-DRA-ETKFminus colocalized with mCherry-HA-Rab7a in late endosomes. Functionally, this different distribution was reflected by a shorter half-life of the mutant DRA. Transient expression of dominant-negative Rab11a(S25N) inhibited the activity (-17%, P < 0.05) and the cell surface expression of DRA (-30%, P < 0.05). Transient transfection of Rab4a or its dominant-negative mutant Rab4a(S22N) was without effect and thus excluded participation of the rapid recycling pathway. Taken together, the PDZ interaction of DRA facilitates its movement into Rab11a-positive recycling endosomes, from where it is inserted in the plasma membrane. A scenario emerges where specific PDZ adaptor proteins are present along several compartments of the endocytosis-recycling pathway.

Abstract
Local Ca(2+) signaling requires proper targeting of the Ca(2+) signaling toolkit to specific cellular locales. Different isoforms of the plasma membrane Ca(2+) pump (PMCA) are responsible for Ca(2+) extrusion at the apical and basolateral membrane of polarized epithelial cells, but the mechanisms and signals for differential targeting of the PMCAs are not well understood. Recent work demonstrated that the alternatively spliced w-insert in PMCA2 directs this pump to the apical membrane. We now show that inserting the w-insert into the corresponding location of the PMCA4 isoform confers apical targeting to this normally basolateral pump. Mutation of a di-leucine motif in the C-tail thought to be important for basolateral targeting did not enhance apical localization of the chimeric PMCA4(2w)/b. In contrast, replacing the C-terminal Val residue by Leu to optimize the PDZ ligand site for interaction with the scaffolding protein NHERF2 enhanced the apical localization of PMCA4(2w)/b, but not of PMCA4x/b. Functional studies showed that both apical PMCA4(2w)/b and basolateral PMCA4x/b handled ATP-induced Ca(2+) signals with similar kinetics, suggesting that isoform-specific functional characteristics are retained irrespective of membrane targeting. Our results demonstrate that the alternatively spliced w-insert provides autonomous apical targeting information in the PMCA without altering its functional characteristics.
