Ca2+-dependent conformational changes in a C-terminal cytosolic domain of polycystin-2.

The PKD1 and PKD2 genes are the genes that are mutated in patients suffering from autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. The human PKD2 gene codes for a 968-amino acid long membrane protein called polycystin-2 that represents a cation channel whose activity can be regulated by Ca(2+) ions. By CD, fluorescence, and NMR spectroscopy, we have studied a 117-amino acid-long fragment of the cy...

Ca(2+)-dependent conformational changes in guanylyl cyclase-activating protein 2 (GCAP-2) revealed by site-specific phosphorylation and partial proteolysis.

Guanylyl cyclase-activating proteins (GCAPs) are calcium sensor proteins of the EF-hand superfamily that inhibit retinal photoreceptor membrane guanylyl cyclase (retGC) in the dark when they bind Ca(2+) but activate retGC when Ca(2+) dissociates from GCAPs in response to light stimulus. We addressed the difference in exposure of GCAP-2 structure to protein kinase and a protease as indicators of...

Fluorescent Protein-Based Ca2+ Sensor Reveals Global, Divalent Cation-Dependent Conformational Changes in Cardiac Troponin C

Cardiac troponin C (cTnC) is a key effector in cardiac muscle excitation-contraction coupling as the Ca2+ sensing subunit responsible for controlling contraction. In this study, we generated several FRET sensors for divalent cations based on cTnC flanked by a donor fluorescent protein (CFP) and an acceptor fluorescent protein (YFP). The sensors report Ca2+ and Mg2+ binding, and relay global str...

Localization of light-induced conformational changes in bovine rhodopsin.

Conformational changes in the extradiscal regions of rhodopsin induced by illumination were investigated by modifying the visual pigment by mild treatment with cyanogen bromide prior to and after light exposure. Light induced an increased yield of cleavage of the Met bond 253-254 and a new cleavage at the Met bond 155-156 of the rhodopsin polypeptide chain. These residues, located at the beginn...

Acid pH-induced conformational changes in bovine liver rhodanese.

The enzyme rhodanese is greatly stabilized in the range pH 4-6, and samples at pH 5 are fully active after several days at 23 degrees C. This is very different from results at pH greater than 7, where there is significant loss of activity within 1 h. A pH-dependent conformational change occurs below pH 4 in a transition centered around pH 3.25 that leads slowly to inactive rhodanese at pH 3 (t ...
