Calcium-dependent conformational transition of calmodulin determined by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy.

Abstract:

:The Ca(2+)-induced conformational changes in calmodulin (CaM) were monitored by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) at different molar ratios of Ca(2+) to CaM. The results show that these changes occur in two distinctive transitions. The first transition involves significant changes in the overall secondary structure with a small gain in solvent accessibility, and is completed after the second Ca(2+) binds to both EF-hands of its C-terminal domain. The second transition is accompanied by CaM folding into a tighter, less hydrogen-exchangeable structure, and is completed by the addition of the fourth Ca(2+) to have four Ca(2+) per molecule. Particularly, α-helices in CaM-nCa(2+)(n=0, 1, 2) are less stable than those in CaM-nCa(2+)(n=3, 4).
