From the Departments of Calcineurin, a
Ca2+/calmodulin-stimulated protein phosphatase, plays
a key role in T-cell activation by regulating the activity of NFAT
(nuclear factor of activated
T cells), a family of transcription factors required for
the synthesis of several cytokine genes. Calcineurin is the target of
the immunosuppressive drugs cyclosporin A and FK506 complexed with
their cytoplasmic receptors cyclophilin and FKBP12, respectively. In
this study we report that calcineurin is also the target of a recently
identified Ca2+-binding protein, CHP (for
calcineurin homologous protein),
which shares a high degree of homology with the regulatory B subunit of
calcineurin and with calmodulin. In Jurkat and HeLa cells, overexpression of CHP specifically impaired the nuclear translocation and transcriptional activity of NFAT but had no effect on AP-1 transcriptional activity and only a small (<25%) inhibitory effect on
the transcriptional activity of NF

B. Further study indicated that
CHP inhibits calcineurin activity. In cells overexpressing CHP, the
phosphatase activity of immunoprecipitated calcineurin was inhibited by
~50%; and in a reconstituted assay, the activity of purified
calcineurin was inhibited up to 97% by the addition of purified
recombinant CHP in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, prolonged activation of Jurkat cells was associated with a decreased abundance of CHP, suggesting a possible regulatory mechanism allowing activation of calcineurin. CHP, therefore, is a previously unrecognized endogenous inhibitor of calcineurin activity.
