Calmodulin Binds to the Basolateral Targeting Signal of the Polymeric Immunoglobulin Receptor

Abstract: We have identified a major calmodulin (CaM)-binding protein in rat liver endosomes using 125 I-CaM overlays from two-dimensional protein blots. Immunostaining of blots demonstrates that this protein is the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR). We further investigated the interaction between pIgR and CaM using Madin-Darby canine kidney cells stably expressing cloned wild-type and mutant pIgR. We found that detergent-solubilized pIgR binds to CaM-agarose in a Ca 2؉ -dependent fashion, and binding is inhibite… Show more

“…Our results, however, suggest that this effect could equally well be due to W-7 reducing the surface potential of the plasma membrane, particularly because acidic lipids appear to mediate the membrane association of sphingosine kinase (70). An example of an integral membrane protein is the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor, pIgR, which has a 17-residue membrane-proximal cytoplasmic segment, residues 653-670, that binds Ca 2ϩ /CaM with high affinity (71). In the absence of Ca 2ϩ /CaM, this segment probably also binds to the negatively charged inner leaflet of the plasma membrane, since it has a net charge of ϩ5.…”

“…Calmodulin emerges as a pivotal molecule for most of the functions accomplished in the heterogeneous ''recycling-endosomes''; it is involved in the recycling of transferrin and pIgR, in the transcytosis of pIgA, 60 in the endocytosis and recycling of ricin, 65 and it is also crucial in the regulation of several activities shown in caveolae. 66 It is remarkable that receptors for transferrin, 67 pIgA, 60,68 insulin, 69 and epidermal growth factor 70 are calmodulin-binding proteins. In 2 different procedures for the isolation of hepatic endosomes, calmodulin was shown to be highly and specifically concentrated in the receptor-enriched fraction.…”

“…Similarly, if no Caz+ is present in the incubation medium, Tf-R recycling is inhibited, and this receptor is lost or inactivated in reticulocytes (Morgan, 1989). Conversely, an artificial elevation of Ca" stimulates apical transcytosis of transferrin (Chapin et al, 1996). We demonstrated previously that reticulocyte endocytic vesicles contain Ca'+-ATPase activity working under the regulation of a trimeric guanine-nucleotide-binding regulatory protein .…”
