Calpain A modulates Toll responses by limited Cactus/IκB proteolysis
Calcium-dependent cysteine proteases of the calpain family are modulatory proteases that cleave their substrates in a limited manner. Among their substrates, calpains target vertebrate and invertebrate IκB proteins. Because proteolysis by calpains potentially generates novel protein functions, it is important to understand how this affects NFκB activity. We investigate the action of Calpain A (...
متن کاملPersistent Ca2+-lnduced Activation of Erythrocyte Membrane Ca2+-A TPase Unrelated to Calpain Proteolysis 1
Ca2+ activation of the Ca2+-ATPase. On the other hand, Ca2+-pretreatment of the membranes modified the susceptibility of the Ca2+-ATPase to both cleavage and activation by exogenously added calpain I. We conclude that pretreatment of Ca2+-A TPase in erythrocyte mem... branes with millimolar Ca2+ activates the enzyme by inducing a persistent conformational change of the enzyme which is, however,...
متن کاملProteolysis of Nuclear Proteins by p-Calpain and rn-Calpain"
Purified calpains are capable of proteolyzing several high M, nuclear proteins and solubilizing a histone H1 kinase activity from rat liver nuclei upon exposure to 10"' M Ca2+. Major nuclear substrates displayed apparent molecular masses of 200, 130, 120, and 60 kDa on Coomassie Blue-stained SDS-PAGE gels. The nuclear proteins and the H1 kinase were released from Triton-treated nuclei following...
متن کاملActivation of rat liver microsomal glutathione transferase by limited proteolysis.
The activity of rat liver microsomal glutathione transferase is increased by limited tryptic proteolysis; the membrane-bound and purified forms of the enzyme are activated about 5- and 10-fold respectively. The cleavage sites that correlate with this activation were determined by amino acid sequence analysis to be located after Lys-4 and Lys-41. Differences in the relative extent of cleavage at...
متن کاملProteolysis of platelet cortactin by calpain.
Cortactin, a substrate of pp60(c-)src and a potent filamentous actin binding and cross-linking protein, is abundant in circulating platelets. After stimulation of platelet aggregation with collagen, cortactin undergoes a dramatic increase in tyrosine phosphorylation followed by a rapid degradation. The cleavage of platelet cortactin was detected in lysates prepared using either Triton-containin...
