Although the calcium/calmodulin-regulated protein phosphatase calcineurin has been shown to play a role in a number of intracellular processes, relatively few of the downstream phosphoproteins that are dephosphorylated by this enzyme in cells have been described. Calcineurin was previously shown to play a role in amylase secretion by rat pancreatic acinar cells and to specifically dephosphorylate a 24-kDa cytosolic protein. The present study describes the purification and characterization of this novel phosphoprotein, termed CRHSP-24 (calcium-regulated heat-stable protein with a molecular mass of 24 kDa). Microgram quantities of CRHSP-24 were purified from a large-scale rat pancreas preparation in a procedure involving heat and acid precipitation, anion-exchange chromatography, preparative electrophoresis, electroelution, and two-dimensional electrophoresis. Internal amino acid sequence was obtained from two peptides following trypsin digestion and high pressure liquid chromatography. Both sequences matched with 100% identity nucleotide sequences of expressed sequence tags from human placenta and rat PC-12 cells. Two CRHSP-24 transcripts of 0.7 and 2.9 kilobases were detected in multiple rat tissues by Northern analysis, whereas a single 24-kDa protein was observed by Western blotting. The CRHSP-24 protein is 147 amino acids in length, is composed of nearly 14% proline, and is phosphorylated entirely on serine residues. Western analysis and ³²P metabolic labeling of acini revealed CRHSP-24 to be maximally phosphorylated in control cells and to undergo a rapid sustained dephosphorylation on at least 3 serine residues in response to calcium-mobilizing stimuli. Dephosphorylation of CRHSP-24 was completely inhibited by pretreatment of acini with cyclosporin A or FK506. Furthermore, the inhibitory effects of FK506 were blocked by excess rapamycin. The ubiquitous expression of CRHSP-24 in rat tissues suggests that this novel calcineurin substrate plays a common role in calcium-mediated signal transduction.
