From the The plasma membrane Ca2+ pump
(PMCA) is an essential element in the complex of mechanisms that
maintain low intracellular Ca2+ concentration in the living
cell. This pump is tightly regulated by calmodulin through binding to a
high affinity calmodulin-binding domain at the C terminus that also
serves as an autoinhibitor of the enzyme. Inspection of the C terminus
of hPMCA4b, the most widely distributed form of PMCA, revealed a
caspase-3 consensus sequence (1077DEID1080)
just a few residues upstream of the calmodulin-binding domain. We
demonstrate here that, in the early phase of apoptosis, hPMCA4b is
cleaved at aspartic acid Asp1080 in
hPMCA4b-transfected COS-7 cells or in HeLa cells that naturally express
this protein. This cleavage of hPMCA4b produces a single 120-kDa
fragment that is fully active in the absence of calmodulin, because the
whole inhibitory region downstream of the
1077DEID1080 sequence is removed. Our
experiments show that caspase-3 or a caspase-3-like protease is
responsible for the formation of the constitutively active 120-kDa
PMCA4b fragment: 1) Pretreatment of the cells with the caspase-3
inhibitor Z-DEVD-FMK
(benzyloxycarbonyl-Asp(OMe)-Glu(OMe)-Val-Asp(OMe)-fluoromethyl ketone) was able to block the production of the 120-kDa fragment. 2)
In vitro treatment of hPMCA4b with recombinant caspase-3
also generated a 120-kDa cleavage product, consistent with that seen in
cells undergoing apoptosis. 3) Mutants in which the caspase-3 consensus
sequence was altered (1077AEID1080,
1077DEIA1080, and
1077AEIA1080 mutants) were resistant to
proteolysis. Based on these data, we conclude that hPMCA4b is a newly
identified, natural caspase-3 substrate. We suggest that a
constitutively active form of this protein, responding much faster to
an increase in Ca2+ concentration than the autoinhibited
form, may have an important role in regulating intracellular
Ca2+ concentration in the apoptotic cell.
