Identification of a new Pyk2 target protein with Arf-GAP activity. (1/2826)

Protein tyrosine kinase Pyk2 is activated by a variety of G-protein-coupled receptors and by extracellular signals that elevate intracellular Ca2+ concentration. We have identified a new Pyk2 binding protein designated Pap. Pap is a multidomain protein composed of an N-terminal alpha-helical region with a coiled-coil motif, followed by a pleckstrin homology domain, an Arf-GAP domain, an ankyrin homology region, a proline-rich region, and a C-terminal SH3 domain. We demonstrate that Pap forms a stable complex with Pyk2 and that activation of Pyk2 leads to tyrosine phosphorylation of Pap in living cells. Immunofluorescence experiments demonstrate that Pap is localized in the Golgi apparatus and at the plasma membrane, where it is colocalized with Pyk2. In addition, in vitro recombinant Pap exhibits strong GTPase-activating protein (GAP) activity towards the small GTPases Arf1 and Arf5 and weak activity towards Arf6. Addition of recombinant Pap protein to Golgi preparations prevented Arf-dependent generation of post-Golgi vesicles in vitro. Moreover, overexpression of Pap in cultured cells reduced the constitutive secretion of a marker protein. We propose that Pap functions as a GAP for Arf and that Pyk2 may be involved in regulation of vesicular transport through its interaction with Pap.  (+info)

Simultaneous measurement of evoked release and [Ca2+]i in a crayfish release bouton reveals high affinity of release to Ca2+. (2/2826)

The opener neuromuscular junction of crayfish was used to determine the affinity of the putative Ca2+ receptor(s) responsible for evoked release. Evoked, asynchronous release, and steady-state intracellular Ca2+ concentration, [Ca2+]ss, were measured concomitantly in single release boutons. It was found that, as expected, asynchronous release is highly correlated with [Ca2+]ss. Surprisingly, evoked release was also found to be highly correlated with [Ca2+]ss. The quantal content (m) and the rate of asynchronous release (S) showed sigmoidal dependence on [Ca2+]ss. The slope log m/log [Ca2+]ss varied between 1.6 and 3.3; the higher slope observed at the lower [Ca2+]o. The slope log S/log [Ca2+]ss varied between 3 and 4 and was independent of [Ca2+]o. These results are consistent with the assumption that evoked release is controlled by the sum of [Ca2+]ss and the local elevation of Ca2+ concentration near the release sites resulting from Ca2+ influx through voltage-gated Ca2+ channels (Y). On the basis of the above, we were able to estimate Y. We found Y to be significantly <10 microM even for [Ca2+]o = 13.5 mM. The dissociation constant (Kd) of the Ca2+ receptor(s) associated with evoked release was calculated to be in the range of 4-5 microM. This value of Kd is similar to that found previously for asynchronous release.  (+info)

In vivo intracellular analysis of granule cell axon reorganization in epileptic rats. (3/2826)

In vivo intracellular recording and labeling in kainate-induced epileptic rats was used to address questions about granule cell axon reorganization in temporal lobe epilepsy. Individually labeled granule cells were reconstructed three dimensionally and in their entirety. Compared with controls, granule cells in epileptic rats had longer average axon length per cell; the difference was significant in all strata of the dentate gyrus including the hilus. In epileptic rats, at least one-third of the granule cells extended an aberrant axon collateral into the molecular layer. Axon projections into the molecular layer had an average summed length of 1 mm per cell and spanned 600 microm of the septotemporal axis of the hippocampus-a distance within the normal span of granule cell axon collaterals. These findings in vivo confirm results from previous in vitro studies. Surprisingly, 12% of the granule cells in epileptic rats, and none in controls, extended a basal dendrite into the hilus, providing another route for recurrent excitation. Consistent with recurrent excitation, many granule cells (56%) in epileptic rats displayed a long-latency depolarization superimposed on a normal inhibitory postsynaptic potential. These findings demonstrate changes, occurring at the single-cell level after an epileptogenic hippocampal injury, that could result in novel, local, recurrent circuits.  (+info)

Selective induction of LTP and LTD by postsynaptic [Ca2+]i elevation. (4/2826)

Long-term potentiation (LTP) and long-term depression (LTD), two prominent forms of synaptic plasticity at glutamatergic afferents to CA1 hippocampal pyramidal cells, are both triggered by the elevation of postsynaptic intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i). To understand how one signaling molecule can be responsible for triggering two opposing forms of synaptic modulation, different postsynaptic [Ca2+]i elevation patterns were generated by a new caged calcium compound nitrophenyl-ethylene glycol-bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid in CA1 pyramidal cells. We found that specific patterns of [Ca2+]i elevation selectively activate LTP or LTD. In particular, only LTP was triggered by a brief increase of [Ca2+]i with relatively high magnitude, which mimics the [Ca2+]i rise during electrical stimulation typically used to induce LTP. In contrast, a prolonged modest rise of [Ca2+]i reliably induced LTD. An important implication of the results is that both the amplitude and the duration of an intracellular chemical signal can carry significant biological information.  (+info)

Intracellular EDTA mimics parvalbumin in the promotion of skeletal muscle relaxation. (5/2826)

Parvalbumin (PA) is an intracellular Ca2+-binding protein found in some muscle and nerves. Its ability to bind Ca2+ and facilitate skeletal muscle relaxation is limited by its Mg2+ off-rate. EDTA serves as an "artificial" PA in that it exhibited similar rate constants for Mg2+ (3 s-1) and Ca2+ (0.7 s-1) dissociation at 10 degrees C. When introduced into frog skeletal muscle, EDTA increased the relaxation rate by approximately 2.7-fold, and with increasing tetanus duration, EDTA lost its ability to contribute to relaxation (and Ca2+ sequestration) at its Mg2+ off-rate. Intracellular EDTA recovered its ability to contribute to muscle relaxation and Ca2+ sequestration at its Ca2+ off-rate. Like PA, EDTA's contribution to muscle relaxation and Ca2+ sequestration was more clearly observed when the SR Ca-ATPase was inhibited. Introduction of EDTA into rat soleus muscle, which has low [PA], increased the relaxation rate in a manner that was analogous to the way in which PA facilitates relaxation of frog skeletal muscle. Thus intracellular EDTA serves as an effective mimic of PA, and its use should aid in our understanding of PA's function in muscle and nerve.  (+info)

Role of the third intracellular loop of the angiotensin II receptor subtype AT2 in ligand-receptor interaction. (6/2826)

Angiotensin II (Ang II) receptor subtypes AT1 and AT2 share 34% overall homology, but the least homology is in their third intracellular loop (3rd ICL). In an attempt to elucidate the role of the 3rd ICL in determining the similarities and differences in the functions of the AT1 and the AT2 receptors, we generated a chimeric receptor in which the 3rd ICL of the AT2 receptor was replaced with that of the AT1 receptor. Ligand-binding properties and signaling properties of this receptor were assayed by expressing this receptor in Xenopus oocytes. Ligand-binding studies using [125I-Sar1-Ile8] Ang II, a peptidic ligand that binds both the AT1 and the AT2 receptor subtypes, and 125I-CGP42112A, a peptidic ligand that is specific for the AT2 receptor, showed that the chimeric receptor has lost affinity to both ligands. However, IP3 levels of the oocytes expressing the chimeric receptor were comparable to the IP3 levels of the oocytes expressing the AT1 receptor, suggesting that the chimeric receptors could couple to phospholipase C pathway in response to Ang II. We have shown previously that the nature of the amino acid present in the position 215 located in the fifth transmembrane domain (TMD) of the AT2 receptor plays an important role in determining its affinity to different ligands. Our results from the ligand-binding studies of the chimeric receptor further support the idea that the structural organization of the region spanning the 5th TMD and the 3rd ICL of the AT2 receptor has an important role in determining the ligand-binding properties of this receptor.  (+info)

Intercellular traffic of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 transactivator protein defined by monoclonal antibodies. (7/2826)

Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) directed against the amino-terminal region (N-terminal sequence 2-19) of transactivator protein (tat) of HIV-1 have been shown to inhibit intercellular transactivation mediated by the extracellular tat protein. The intracellular transactivation was not significantly affected by anti-tat mAbs. The specificity of anti-tat mAbs in abolishing the transactivating potential of extracellular tat is documented by studies with mAbs to HIV-1 reverse transcriptase, or to a human mammary cancer protein. None of these antibodies showed any inhibitory effect on intercellular transactivation. Specific interaction of anti-tat IgG with tat protein expressed in Jurkat cells is further supported by experiments on immunoblotting. Extracellular tat is responsible for signals which induce a variety of biological responses in HIV-infected cells, as well as in uninfected cells. The fact that anti-tat mAbs can abolish the intercellular traffic of tat protein offers a unique strategy in the development of vaccines against AIDS.  (+info)

Effects of taurine on the motility and intracellular free Ca2+ concentration of fowl spermatozoa in vitro. (8/2826)

The effects of taurine on the motility and intracellular free Ca2+ concentration of fowl spermatozoa were investigated in vitro. The addition of taurine, within the range of 0-5 mmol l(-1), did not appreciably affect the motility of intact fowl spermatozoa. Motility remained almost negligible at 40 degrees C, while vigorous movement was observed at 25 degrees C. Even with the addition of Ca2+ before the addition of taurine, neither stimulation nor inhibition of motility was observed compared with the control (no addition of taurine). Similar results were obtained by the addition of taurine and calyculin A, a specific inhibitor of protein phosphatases. There were no changes in intracellular free Ca2+ concentrations, measured by a fluorescent Ca2+ indicator, fura-2, in taurine-treated spermatozoa. These results suggest that taurine is not involved in the regulation of fowl sperm motility and metabolism by intracellular Ca2+ mobilization in vitro.  (+info)
