  2. Calcium Ion Channel Family • Cav1 = initiate contraction, secretion, and regulation of gene expression, integration of synaptic input in neurons, and synaptic transmission at ribbon synapses of specialized sensory cells • Cav2 = synaptic transmission of fast synapses • Cav3 = important for repetitive or rhythmic firing of Aps (cardiac, thalamic)

  11. Regulation of excitation-contraction coupling • PKA phosphorylation and its anchoring via a kinase anchoring protein (APAK). • An autoinhibited Ca2+ channel complex with noncovalently bound distal carboxyl-terminus. • Ca2+/ calmodulin-dependent inactivation Image taken from Caterall 2011

  12. Excitation-transcription coupling • Calmodulin binds to the proximal caboxy-terminal domain, the Ca2+ /calmodulin complex moves to the nucleus • The distal carboxy-terminal domain is regulated by Ca2+ in neurons. Image taken from Caterall 2011

  13. Excitation-secretion coupling • Initialization of the secretion of hormones from endocrine cells and release of neurotransmitters. • The distal carboxy-terminal domain plays an autoregulatory role in some Cav 1 channel, such as Cav1.3, Cav1.4.

  14. Cav2 Channels http://physrev.physiology.org/content/90/4/1461

  15. Image taken from Caterall 2011

  16. Cav2 specific information • Initiate fast release of glutamate, GABA, and acetylcholine • SNARE proteins • G Protein subunits are responsible for modulation • Additional binding proteins

  17. Cav3 Channels • Molecular structure: • Negative potential activation (fast inactivation) • Similar to Cav1 and 2 by 25% • Functional • Present in rhythmic structures: • SA node (pacemaker), relay neurons of thalamus (sleep), adrenal cortex (aldosterone) • Mutations can cause absence epilepsy (sleep-like state) • Regulation • Dopamine & NTMs • Angiotensin II

  18. Conlcusion • Ca2+ channel complexes – effector and regulator • Four cases effectors enhance Cav1 & Cav2 • Skeletal muscle • SNARE proteins • Ca2+/CaM-dependent protein kinase II • RIM • Common Theme: “Effector Checkpoint”

  19. Point of interest • LOF for Nav1.7 causes anosmia • Cav2.2 is involved with the first synapse of the olfactory system • Cacna1b LOF mutation causes an absence of Cav2.2 channels • Effects of Lacking Cav2.2 on Olfactory Sensory Neurons (OSN) in the Main Olfactory Bulb (MOB) and on Vomeronasal Sensory Neurons (VSN) in the Accessory Olfactory Bulb (AOB)

  20. Summary • N-type Cav Channels are main contributors to presynaptic release • MOB and AOB respond differently to Cav2.2 mutation • Presence of unknown Cav channel type in MOB • Lack of Cav2.2 does not cause anosmia • Mutation causes hyperaggressive behavior

  21. Question? • Ca2+ and Na+ own nearly identical diameters (2A) • The extracellular concentration of Na+ is 70-fold higher than Ca2+ • The conductance of Na+ is more than 500-fold lower than Ca2+ via Cav channel How the Cav channel keeps the high selectivity of Ca2+ ?

  22. Selectivity filter NavAb: 175TLESWSM181, outward sodium current CavAb: 175TLDDWSD181, inward calcium current

  23. No significant alteration in backbone structure between NavAb and CavAb------the selectivity is mainly determined by the side chains.

  24. Three Ca2+ - binding sites: • Site 1: the carboxyl groups of D178. • Site 2: four carboxylate oxygen atoms from D177 and four backbone carbonyl oxygen atoms from L176. • Site 3: a plane of four carbonyls from T175 • The bound Ca2+ ion is continuously stabilized in a fully hydrated state through the pore.

  25. D178 VS S178: • Site 1 • Over 100-fold change in PCa:PNa. • D178: forms the first hydrated Ca2+ - binding site • S178: blocks the conduction of Ca2+ by directly binding Ca2+and displacing the hydration shell

  26. D177 VS E177: • Site 2 • 5.5-fold change in PCa:PNa. • D177: interacts with Ca2+ • E177: swings away from the selectivity filter

  27. D181 VS N181 VS M181: • Site 1 • 4- to 5-fold change in PCa:PNa. • D181 an N181: constrains the side-chain of the D178 ring by forming a hydrogen bond. • M181: unconstrains the side-chain of the D178 and results in a blocking Ca2+ tightly bound at Site1.

  28. Binding forces: Site 2> Site 1 > Site 3 • Ca2+ can’t occupy adjacent sites simultaneously due to electrostatic repulsive interactions. • High extracellular concentration of Ca2+ and weak binding of Ca2+ to Site 3 generate a unidirectional flux of Ca2+ .

  29. Direct Recording and molecular identity of the calcium channel of primary cilia Daniel Blackman, Zhihui Zhou, Thomas Arnold

  33. Polycystin proteins (PC/PKD) • Identified in polycystic kidney disease • Form ion channels at high densities in multiple cell types • Two structural classes (PKD1s and PKD2s) • Hypothesis: PKD1L1-PKD2L1 heteromultermerize to form calcium-permeant ciliary channels

  34. Image taken from DeCaen et al

  35. Conclusion • No Ca2+ current with just PKD1L1 (current observed with PKD2L1) • Only with both PKD1L1 and PKD2L1 was current observed matching human
