Trisphosphate Receptor

The type 1 inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (InsP3R1) is a ubiquitous intracellular Ca2+ release channel that is vital to intracellular Ca2+ signaling. InsP3R1 is a proteolytic target of calpain, which cleaves the channel to form a 95-kDa carboxyl-terminal fragment that includes the transmembrane domains, which contain the ion pore. However, the functional consequences of calpain proteolysis on channel behavior and Ca2+ homeostasis are unknown. In the present study we have identified a unique calpain cleavage site in InsP3R1 and utilized a recombinant truncated form of the channel (capn-InsP3R1) corresponding to the stable, carboxyl-terminal fragment to examine the functional consequences of channel proteolysis. Single-channel recordings of capn-InsP3R1 revealed InsP3-independent gating and high open probability (Po) under optimal cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) conditions. However, some [Ca2+]i regulation of the cleaved channel remained, with a lower Po in suboptimal and inhibitory [Ca2+]i. Expression of capn-InsP3R1 in N2a cells reduced the Ca2+ content of ionomycin-releasable intracellular stores and decreased endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ loading compared with control cells expressing full-length InsP3R1. Using a cleavage-specific antibody, we identified calpain-cleaved InsP3R1 in selectively vulnerable cerebellar Purkinje neurons after in vivo cardiac arrest. These findings indicate that calpain proteolysis of InsP3R1 generates a dysregulated channel that disrupts cellular Ca2+ homeostasis. Furthermore, our results demonstrate that calpain cleaves InsP3R1 in a clinically relevant injury model, suggesting that Ca2+ leak through the proteolyzed channel may act as a feed-forward mechanism to enhance cell death.

Trisphosphate Receptor

ATP is known to increase the activity of the type-1 inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (InsP3R1). This effect is attributed to the binding of ATP to glycine rich Walker A-type motifs present in the regulatory domain of the receptor. Only two such motifs are present in neuronal S2+ splice variant of InsP3R1 and are designated the ATPA and ATPB sites. The ATPA site is unique to InsP3R1, and the ATPB site is conserved among all three InsP3R isoforms. Despite the fact that both the ATPA and ATPB sites are known to bind ATP, the relative contribution of these two sites to the enhancing effects of ATP on InsP3R1 function is not known. We report here a mutational analysis of the ATPA and ATPB sites and conclude neither of these sites is required for ATP modulation of InsP3R1. ATP augmented InsP3-induced Ca2+ release from permeabilized cells expressing wild type and ATP-binding site-deficient InsP3R1. Similarly, ATP increased the single channel open probability of the mutated InsP3R1 to the same extent as wild type. ATP likely exerts its effects on InsP3R1 channel function via a novel and as yet unidentified mechanism.

Permeation Properties

The inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (InsP3R) forms ligand-regulated intracellular Ca2+ release channels in the endoplasmic reticulum of all mammalian cells. The InsP3R has been suggested to have six transmembrane regions (TMRs) near its carboxyl terminus. A TMR-deletion mutation strategy was applied to define the location of the InsP3R pore. Mutant InsP3Rs were expressed in COS-1 cells and single channel function was defined in planar lipid bilayers. Mutants having the fifth and sixth TMR (and the interceding lumenal loop), but missing all other TMRs, formed channels with permeation properties similar to wild-type channels (gCs = 284; gCa = 60 pS; PCa/PCs = 6.3). These mutant channels bound InsP3, but ligand occupancy did not regulate the constitutively open pore (Po > 0.80). We propose that a region of 191 amino acids (including the fifth and sixth TMR, residues 2398–2589) near the COOH terminus of the protein forms the InsP3R pore. Further, we have produced a constitutively open InsP3R pore mutant that is ideal for future site-directed mutagenesis studies of the structure–function relationships that define Ca2+ permeation through the InsP3R channel.

Calcium is a universal second messenger. The temporal and spatial information that is encoded in Ca2+-transients drives processes as diverse as neurotransmitter secretion, axonal outgrowth, immune responses and muscle contraction. Ca2+-release from intracellular Ca2+ stores can be triggered by diffusible second messengers like InsP3, cyclic ADP-ribose or nicotinic acid—adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP). A target has not yet been identified for the latter messenger. In the present study we show that nanomolar concentrations of NAADP trigger Ca2+-release from skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum. This was due to a direct action on the Ca2+-release channel/ryanodine receptor type-1, since in single channel recordings, NAADP increased the open probability of the purified channel protein. The effects of NAADP on Ca2+-release and open probability of the ryanodine receptor occurred over a similar concentration range (EC5030nM) and were specific because (i) they were blocked by Ruthenium Red and ryanodine, (ii) the precursor of NAADP, NADP, was ineffective at equimolar concentrations, (iii) NAADP did not affect the conductance and reversal potential of the ryanodine receptor. Finally, we also detected an ADP-ribosyl cyclase activity in the sarcoplasmic reticulum fraction of skeletal muscle. This enzyme was not only capable of synthesizing cyclic GDP-ribose but also NAADP, with an activity of 0.25nmol/mg/min. Thus, we conclude that NAADP is generated in the vicinity of type 1 ryanodine receptor and leads to activation of this ion channel.

The inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) receptor (InsP3R) is a ligand-gated intracellular Ca2+ release channel that plays a central role in modulating cytoplasmic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i). The fungal metabolite adenophostin A (AdA) is a potent agonist of the InsP3R that is structurally different from InsP3 and elicits distinct calcium signals in cells. We have investigated the effects of AdA and its analogues on single-channel activities of the InsP3R in the outer membrane of isolated Xenopus laevis oocyte nuclei. InsP3R activated by either AdA or InsP3 have identical channel conductance properties. Furthermore, AdA, like InsP3, activates the channel by tuning Ca2+ inhibition of gating. However, gating of the AdA-liganded InsP3R has a critical dependence on cytoplasmic ATP free acid concentration not observed for InsP3-liganded channels. Channel gating activated by AdA is indistinguishable from that elicited by InsP3 in the presence of 0.5 mM ATP, although the functional affinity of the channel is 60-fold higher for AdA. However, in the absence of ATP, gating kinetics of AdA-liganded InsP3R were very different. Channel open time was reduced by 50%, resulting in substantially lower maximum open probability than channels activated by AdA in the presence of ATP, or by InsP3 in the presence or absence of ATP. Also, the higher functional affinity of InsP3R for AdA than for InsP3 is nearly abolished in the absence of ATP. Low affinity AdA analogues furanophostin and ribophostin activated InsP3R channels with gating properties similar to those of AdA. These results provide novel insights for interpretations of observed effects of AdA on calcium signaling, including the mechanisms that determine the durations of elementary Ca2+ release events in cells. Comparisons of single-channel gating kinetics of the InsP3R activated by InsP3, AdA, and its analogues also identify molecular elements in InsP3R ligands that contribute to binding and activation of channel gating.

The type 2 inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (InsP3R2) was identified previously as the predominant isoform in cardiac ventricular myocytes. Here we reported the subcellular localization of InsP3R2 to the cardiomyocyte nuclear envelope (NE). The other major known endo/sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium-release channel (ryanodine receptor) was not localized to the NE, indicating functional segregation of these channels and possibly a unique role for InsP3R2 in regulating nuclear calcium dynamics. Immunoprecipitation experiments revealed that the NE InsP3R2 associates with Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IIδ (CaMKIIδ), the major isoform expressed in cardiac myocytes. Recombinant InsP3R2 and CaMKIIδBalso co-immunoprecipitated after co-expression in COS-1 cells. Additionally, the amino-terminal 1078 amino acids of the InsP3R2 were sufficient for interaction with CaMKIIδBand associated upon mixing following separate expression. CaMKII can also phosphorylate InsP3R2, as demonstrated by32P labeling. Incorporation of CaMKII-treated InsP3R2 into planar lipid bilayers revealed that InsP3-mediated channel open probability is significantly reduced (∼11 times) by phosphorylation via CaMKII. We concluded that the InsP3R2 and CaMKIIδ likely represent two central components of a multiprotein signaling complex, and this raises the possibility that calcium release via InsP3R2 in the myocyte NE may activate local CaMKII signaling, which may feedback on InsP3R2 function.

Trisphosphate Receptor

The inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (InsP3R), an intracellular calcium channel, has three isoforms with >65% sequence homology, yet the isoforms differ in their function and regulation by post-translational modifications. We showed previously that InsP3R-1 is functionally modified by O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine glycosylation (O-GlcNAcylation) (Rengifo, J., Gibson, C. J., Winkler, E., Collin, T., and Ehrlich, B. E. (2007) J. Neurosci. 27, 13813–13821). We now report the effect of O-GlcNAcylation on InsP3R-2 and InsP3R-3. Analysis of AR4-2J cells, a rat pancreatoma cell line expressing predominantly InsP3R-2, showed no detectable O-GlcNAcylation of InsP3R-2 and no significant functional changes despite the presence of the enzymes for addition (O-β-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase) and removal (O-β-N-acetylglucosaminidase) of the monosaccharide. In contrast, InsP3R-3 in Mz-ChA-1 cells, a human cholangiocarcinoma cell line expressing predominantly InsP3R-3, was functionally modified by O-GlcNAcylation. Interestingly, the functional impact of O-GlcNAcylation on the InsP3R-3 channel was opposite the effect measured with InsP3R-1. Addition of O-GlcNAc by O-β-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase increased InsP3R-3 single channel open probability. Incubation of Mz-ChA-1 cells in hyperglycemic medium caused an increase in the InsP3-dependent calcium release from the endoplasmic reticulum. The dynamic and inducible nature of O-GlcNAcylation and the InsP3R isoform specificity suggest that this form of modification of InsP3R and subsequent changes in intracellular calcium transients are important in physiological and pathophysiological processes.

Insp3 Receptor

The inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) receptor (InsP3R) is an endoplasmic reticulum–localized Ca2+-release channel that controls complex cytoplasmic Ca2+ signaling in many cell types. At least three InsP3Rs encoded by different genes have been identified in mammalian cells, with different primary sequences, subcellular locations, variable ratios of expression, and heteromultimer formation. To examine regulation of channel gating of the type 3 isoform, recombinant rat type 3 InsP3R (r-InsP3R-3) was expressed in Xenopus oocytes, and single-channel recordings were obtained by patch-clamp electrophysiology of the outer nuclear membrane. Gating of the r-InsP3R-3 exhibited a biphasic dependence on cytoplasmic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i). In the presence of 0.5 mM cytoplasmic free ATP, r-InsP3R-3 gating was inhibited by high [Ca2+]i with features similar to those of the endogenous Xenopus type 1 InsP3R (X-InsP3R-1). Ca2+ inhibition of channel gating had an inhibitory Hill coefficient of ∼3 and half-maximal inhibiting [Ca2+]i (Kinh) = 39 μM under saturating (10 μM) cytoplasmic InsP3 concentrations ([InsP3]). At [InsP3] < 100 nM, the r-InsP3R-3 became more sensitive to Ca2+ inhibition, with the InsP3 concentration dependence of Kinh described by a half-maximal [InsP3] of 55 nM and a Hill coefficient of ∼4. InsP3 activated the type 3 channel by tuning the efficacy of Ca2+ to inhibit it, by a mechanism similar to that observed for the type 1 isoform. In contrast, the r-InsP3R-3 channel was uniquely distinguished from the X-InsP3R-1 channel by its enhanced Ca2+ sensitivity of activation (half-maximal activating [Ca2+]i of 77 nM instead of 190 nM) and lack of cooperativity between Ca2+ activation sites (activating Hill coefficient of 1 instead of 2). These differences endow the InsP3R-3 with high gain InsP3–induced Ca2+ release and low gain Ca2+–induced Ca2+ release properties complementary to those of InsP3R-1. Thus, distinct Ca2+ signals may be conferred by complementary Ca2+ activation properties of different InsP3R isoforms.

Cytosolic free Ca2+ has been shown to have both activating and inhibitory effects upon the inositol (1,4,5) trisphosphate receptor (InsP3R) during intracellular Ca2+ release. The effects of cytosolic free Ca2+ on the InsP3R have already been monitored using cerebellar microsomes (containing InsP3R) incorporated into planar lipid bilayers [Bezprozvanny, Watras and Ehrlich (1991) Nature (London) 351, 751-754]. In these experiments the open probability of the channel exhibited a ‘bell-shaped Ca2+ dependence’. However, this has only been seen when the receptor is in the presence of its native membrane (e.g. microsomal vesicles). Using solubilized, purified InsP3R incorporated into planar lipid bilayers using the ‘tip-dip’ technique, investigations were carried out to see if the same effect was seen in the absence of the native membrane. Channel activity was observed in the presence of 4 μM InsP3 and 200 nM free Ca2+. Mean single channel current was 2.69 pA and more than one population of lifetimes was observed. Two populations had mean open times of approx. 9 and 97 ms. Upon increasing the free [Ca2+] to 2 μM, the mean single channel current decreased slightly to 2.39 pA, and the lifetimes increased to 30 and 230 ms. Elevation of free [Ca2+] to 4 μM resulted in a further decrease in mean single channel current to 1.97 pA as well as a decrease in lifetime to approx. 8 and 194 ms. At 10 μM free [Ca2+] no channel activity was observed. Thus, with purified receptor in artificial bilayers, free [Ca2+] on the cytosolic face of the receptor has major effects on channel behaviour, particularly on channel closure, although inhibition of channel activity is not seen until very high free [Ca2+] is reached.

AbstractType 1 inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP3R1) is the predominant Ca2+-release channel in neurons. IP3R1 mediates Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum into the cytosol and thereby is involved in many physiological processes. Here, we present the cryo-EM structures of full-length rat IP3R1 reconstituted in lipid nanodisc and detergent solubilized in the presence of phosphatidylcholine determined in ligand-free, closed states by single-particle electron cryo-microscopy. Notably, both structures exhibit the well-established IP3R1 protein fold and reveal a nearly complete representation of lipids with similar locations of ordered lipids bound to the transmembrane domains. The lipid-bound structures show improved features that enabled us to unambiguously build atomic models of IP3R1 including two membrane associated helices that were not previously resolved in the TM region. Our findings suggest conserved locations of protein-bound lipids among homotetrameric ion channels that are critical for their structural and functional integrity despite the diversity of structural mechanisms for their gating.
