Using stably expressed fluorescent indicator
proteins, we have determined for the first time the relationship
between the free Ca2+ and Ca2+-calmodulin
concentrations in intact cells. A similar relationship is obtained when
the free Ca2+ concentration is externally buffered or when
it is transiently increased in response to a
Ca2+-mobilizing agonist. Below a free Ca2+
concentration of 0.2 µM, no Ca2+-calmodulin
is detectable. A global maximum free Ca2+-calmodulin
concentration of ~ 45 nM is produced when the free Ca2+ concentration exceeds 3 µM, and a
half-maximal concentration is produced at a free Ca2+
concentration of 1 µM. Data for fractional saturation of
the indicators suggest that the total concentration of
calmodulin-binding proteins is ~ 2-fold higher than the total
calmodulin concentration. We conclude that high-affinity calmodulin
targets (Kd
10 nM) are efficiently
activated throughout the cell, but efficient activation of low-affinity
targets (Kd
100 nM) occurs only
where free Ca2+-calmodulin concentrations can be locally enhanced.
