Initial activation of STIM1, the regulator of store-operated calcium entry

Abstract: Physiological Ca2+ signalling in T lymphocytes and other cells depends on the STIM-ORAI pathway of store-operated Ca2+ entry. STIM1 and STIM2 are Ca2+ sensors located in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane, with ER-luminal domains that monitor cellular Ca2+ stores and cytoplasmic domains that gate ORAI channels in the plasma membrane. The STIM ER-luminal domain dimerizes or oligomerizes upon dissociation of Ca2+, but the mechanism transmitting activation to the STIM cytoplasmic domain has not been defined.… Show more

“…The C terminus of STIM1 adopts an inactive conformation in cells with filled Ca 2+ stores (9)(10)(11)21) and undergoes a conformational extension upon ER store depletion, allowing STIM1 to bridge the gap between the ER and PM. The molecular mechanisms controlling this transition are incompletely understood but were proposed to involve hydrophobic (10) and electrostatic interactions (9,21,26) between the CC1 and CC2 domains of STIM1-CT.…”

“…The molecular mechanisms controlling this transition are incompletely understood but were proposed to involve hydrophobic (10) and electrostatic interactions (9,21,26) between the CC1 and CC2 domains of STIM1-CT. The role of CC1 in maintaining STIM1-CT in a closed, inactive conformation has been demonstrated by in vitro studies (10,11) and is emphasized by recent reports identifying a gain-of-function mutation in CC1 (R304W) as the cause of Stormorken syndrome (27)(28)(29). Our studies of the R429C patient mutation highlight a hitherto unappreciated role for CC3 in addition to CC1 in maintaining the inactive conformation of STIM1, as mutant STIM1-R429C adopts a constitutively open conformation and localizes to ER-PM junctions independently of ER store Ca 2+ content.…”

“…The process begins when depletion of calcium from the ER leads to calcium disassociation from the EF hand of STIM1, facilitating dimerization of SAM domains [21]. Dimerization of STIM1 ER luminal domains triggers extensive conformational changes in the cytoplasmic domains that lead to the exposure of CAD [20,[22][23][24][25][26]. CAD binds with low affinity to a site in the Orai1 N terminal (NBD, residues 73-87; Figure 1A) and with higher affinity to a site in the Orai1 C terminal (CBD, residues 267-292; Figure 1A) [14,15,28,29].…”
