The Molecular Basis for Cyclopiazonic Acid Inhibition of the Sarcoplasmic Reticulum Calcium Pump*From the Department of Biochemistry, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta T6G 2H7, Canada The sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase is essential for calcium reuptake in the muscle contraction-relaxation cycle. Here we present structures of a calcium-free state with bound cyclopiazonic acid (CPA) and magnesium fluoride at 2.65Å resolution and a calcium-free state with bound CPA and ADP at 3.4Å resolution. In both structures, CPA occupies the calcium access channel delimited by transmembrane segments M1M4. Inhibition of Ca2+-ATPase is stabilized by a polar pocket that surrounds the tetramic acid of CPA and a hydrophobic platform that cradles the inhibitor. The calcium pump residues involved include Gln56, Leu61, Val62, and Asn101. We conclude that CPA inhibits the calcium pump by blocking the calcium access channel and immobilizing a subset of transmembrane helices. In the E2(CPA) structure, ADP is bound in a distinct orientation within the nucleotide binding pocket. The adenine ring is sandwiched between Arg489 of the nucleotide-binding domain and Arg678 of the phosphorylation domain. This mode of binding conforms to an adenine recognition motif commonly found in ATP-dependent proteins.
