Peptide binding by calmodulin and its proteolytic fragments and by troponin C.

Abstract:

:Calmodulin and troponin C exhibit calcium-dependent binding of 1 mol/mol of dynorphin. The dissociation constants of the complexes, determined in 0.20 N KC1-1.0 mM CaCI2, pH 7.3, are 0.6 microM for calmodulin, 2.4 microM for rabbit fast skeletal muscle troponin C, and 9 microM for bovine heart troponin C. Experiments with deletion peptides of dynorphin show that peptide chain length and especially charge affect the binding of the peptides by calmodulin. Dynorphin, but not mastoparan or melittin, inhibits adenosinetriphosphatase activity in a reconstituted rabbit skeletal muscle actomyosin assay. The inhibition is partially reversed by the addition of calmodulin or troponin C in the presence of calcium. Calmodulin also exhibits calcium-dependent binding of a synthetic peptide corresponding to positions 104-115 of rabbit fast skeletal muscle troponin I. Mastoparan is a tetradecapeptide from the vespid wasp having exceptional affinity for calmodulin, with Kd approximately 0.3 nM [Malencik, D.A., & Anderson, S.R. (1983) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 114, 50]. The addition of 1 mol/mol of mastoparan to the complex of calmodulin with dynorphin results in complete dissociation of dynorphin. Similar titrations of the skeletal muscle troponin C-dynorphin complex produce a gradual dissociation consistent with a dissociation constant of 0.2 microM for the troponin C-mastoparan complex. Fluorescence anisotropy measurements using the intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence of mastoparan X show strongly calcium-dependent binding by proteolytic fragments of calmodulin. binding by proteolytic fragments of calmodulin.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
