Molecular mechanism of regulation of Ca2+ pump ATPase by phospholamban in cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum. Effects of synthetic phospholamban peptides on Ca2+ pump ATPase.
The molecular mechanism of the regulation of Ca2+ pump ATPase by phospholamban in cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum was examined using synthetic peptides of phospholamban and purified Ca2+ pump ATPase from cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum. The phospholamban monomer of 52 amino acid residues contains two distinct domains, the cytoplasmic (amino acids 1-30) and the transmembrane (amino acids 31-52) domains. The peptide corresponding to the amino acids 1-31 of phospholamban ( PLN 1-31) decreased the Vmax of the Ca(2+)-dependent ATPase activity in dose-dependent manner, while it had no effect on the affinity of the ATPase for Ca2+ (KCa). On the other hand, the peptide corresponding to the amino acids 28-47 of phospholamban ( PLN 28-47) increased the KCa from 0.52 to 1.33 microM without significant change in the Vmax value when reconstituted into vesicles with the ATPase. Essentially the same results as PLN 28-47 were obtained with the peptide corresponding to the amino acids 8-47 of phospholamban ( PLN 8-47). The inhibitory effects of PLN 1-31 and PLN 8-47 on the ATPase were reversed by cAMP-dependent phosphorylation of the peptides (Ser16). These results indicate that phospholamban suppresses Ca2+ pump ATPase at two different sites, the cytoplasmic domain for Vmax and the transmembrane domain for KCa, and that cAMP-dependent phosphorylation de-suppresses these inhibitory effects on the ATPase.[1]References
