چکیده

Regulatory actions of calmodulin on the contractile apparatus and cytoskeleton of smooth muscle and nonmuscle tissue are mediated by a number of specific calmodulin-binding proteins that bind to F-actin in a flip-flop manner--i.e., they bind to calmodulin or F-actin depending on the presence or absence, respectively, of Ca2+. A survey for such proteins in brain, adrenal gland, and pituitary gland identified six polypeptides on polyacrylamide gels--Mr 340,000 (band 1), Mr 240,000/235,000 doublet (band 2), Mr 150,000 (band 3), Mr 129,000 (band 4), Mr 105,000 (band 5), and Mr 94,000 (band 6)--as flip-flop-regulated calmodulin- and F-actin-binding polypeptides. In addition to these polypeptides, a Mr 58,000 non-flip-flop calmodulin-binding actin-binding polypeptide (band 7) was found in all tissues examined. Band 2 was identified as calspectin (spectrin-related protein; fodrin). The flip-flop regulation of calspectin required the presence of a heat-labile nondialyzable factor contained in a supernatant fraction of brain homogenates. Band 1 was distinct from microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) 1 and 2. However, when band 1 polypeptide was kept on ice 3 days, it converted to a lower molecular weight doublet that migrated with MAP2 on NaDodSO4 gel electrophoresis. Bands 1 and 2 were found in all tissues examined.

Calmodulin-regulated binding of the 90-kDa heat shock protein to actin filaments.

We have found that the 90-kDa heat shock protein (HSP90) prepared from a mouse lymphoma exists in homodimeric form under physiological conditions and has the ability to bind to F-actin (Koyasu, S., Nishida, E., Kadowaki, T., Matsuzaki, F., Iida, K., Harada, F., Kasuga, M., Sakai, H., and Yahara, I. (1986) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., in press). Here we show that calmodulin regulates the bindi...

Purification and characterization of caldesmon77: A calmodulin- binding protein that interacts with actin filaments from bovine adrenal medulla (Ca2+-sensitive actomyosin)

Caldesmon150, a protein composed of the Mr 150,000/147,000 doublet, alternately binds to calmodulin and actin filaments in a Ca2+-dependent "flip-flop" fashion. In all fibroblast cell lines examined, we also found a Mr 77,000 protein that crossreacts with anti-caldesmon150 antibody by using an immunoprecipitation technique [Owada, M. K., Hakura, A., Iida, K., Yahara, I., Sobue, K. & Kakiuchi, S...

Calmodulin-binding proteins from brain and other tissues.

The calmodulin contents of rabbit brain, lung, kidney and liver, of bovine aorta and uterus, and of chicken gizzard have been determined. 2. The calmodulin in all of these tissues has been shown to be present in the form of very stable complexes with several other proteins. 3. A calmodulin-binding protein of mol.wt. 22 000 has been purified in high yield from bovine brain. It has been shown to ...

Calmodulin inhibits interaction of actin with MAP2 and Tau, two major microtubule-associated proteins.

We have previously shown that microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2) and Tau, two major microtubule-associated proteins, interact with actin differently as measured by low-shear viscosity and that their activities are modified by phosphorylation (Nishida, E., Kotani, S., Kuwaki, T., and Sakai, H. (1982 in Biological Functions of Microtubules and Related Structures (Sakai, H., Mohri, H., and Bo...

Occurrence of caldesmon (a calmodulin-binding protein) in cultured cells: comparison of normal and transformed cells.

Caldesmon is a calmodulin-binding and F-actin-binding protein originally purified from chicken gizzard smooth muscle. This protein binds to F-actin filaments in a Ca2+- and calmodulin-dependent "flip-flop" fashion, thereby regulating the function of actin filaments. Here we report that various lines of cultured cells contain a Mr 77,000 protein that specifically reacts with the affinity-purifie...
