Abstract:
:Skeletal muscle L-type Ca2+ channels respond to trains of brief depolarizations with a strong shift of the voltage dependence of channel activation toward more negative membrane potentials and slowing of channel deactivation. Increased Ca2+ entry resulting from this potentiation of channel activity may increase contractile force in response to tetanic stimuli. This voltage-dependent Ca2+ channel potentiation requires phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) at a rate that suggests that kinase and channel may be maintained in close proximity through kinase anchoring. A peptide derived from the conserved kinase-binding domain of a PKA-anchoring protein (AKAP) prevents potentiation by endogenous PKA as effectively as inhibition of PKA by a specific peptide inhibitor or by omission of ATP from the intracellular solution. In contrast, a proline-substituted mutant of AKAP peptide has no effect. Potentiation in the presence of 2 microM exogenous catalytic subunit of PKA is unaffected, indicating that kinase anchoring is specifically blocked by the AKAP peptide. No effects of these agents were observed on the level or voltage dependence of basal Ca2+ channel activity before potentiation, suggesting that close physical proximity between the skeletal muscle Ca2+ channel and PKA is critical for voltage-dependent potentiation of Ca2+ channel activity but not for basal activity.
