Phototransduction is a canonical G
protein-mediated cascade of retinal photoreceptor cells that transforms
photons into neural responses. Phosducin (Pd) is a G -binding
protein that is highly expressed in photoreceptors. Pd is
phosphorylated in dark-adapted retina and is dephosphorylated in
response to light. Dephosphorylated Pd binds G with high affinity
and inhibits the interaction of G with G or other effectors,
whereas phosphorylated Pd does not. These results have led to the
hypothesis that Pd down-regulates the light response. Consequently, it
is important to understand the mechanisms of regulation of Pd
phosphorylation. We have previously shown that phosphorylation
of Pd by cAMP-dependent protein kinase moderately
inhibits its association with G . In this study, we report that Pd
was rapidly phosphorylated by
Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent kinase II, resulting
in 100-fold greater inhibition of G binding than
cAMP-dependent protein kinase phosphorylation. Furthermore,
Pd phosphorylation by Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent
kinase II at Ser-54 and Ser-73 led to binding of the
phosphoserine-binding protein 14-3-3. Importantly, in vivo decreases in Ca2+ concentration blocked the interaction of
Pd with 14-3-3, indicating that Ca2+ controls the
phosphorylation state of Ser-54 and Ser-73 in vivo. These
results are consistent with a role for Pd in
Ca2+-dependent light adaptation processes in
photoreceptor cells and also suggest other possible physiological functions.
