The role of the plasma membrane
Ca2+ pump (PMCA) is to remove excess Ca2+
from the cytosol to maintain low intracellular Ca2+ levels.
Asp1080 lies within an acidic sequence between the
C-terminal inhibitory region and the catalytic core of PMCAs and is
part of the caspase-3 recognition site of isoform 4b. Caspase-3 cuts
immediately after this residue and activates the pump by removing the
inhibitory region (Pászty, K., Verma, A. K.,
Padányi, R., Filoteo, A. G., Penniston, J. T., and
Enyedi, Á. (2002) J. Biol. Chem. 277, 6822-6829). Asp1080 had not been believed to have any
other role, but here we show that it also plays a critical role in the
autoinhibition and calmodulin activation of PMCA4b. Site-specific
mutation of Asp1080 to Asn, Ala, or Lys in PMCA4b resulted
in a substantial increase in the basal activity in the absence of
calmodulin. All Asp1080 mutants exhibited an increased
affinity for calmodulin because of an increase in the rate of
activation by calmodulin. This rate was higher when the inhibition was
weaker, showing that a strong inhibitory interaction slows the
activation rate. In contrast, mutating the nearby Asp1077
had no effect on basal activity or calmodulin activation. We propose
that the conserved Asp1080, even though it is neither in
the regulatory domain nor in the catalytic core, plays an essential
role in inhibition by stabilizing the inhibited state of the enzyme.
