Structural features of Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II revealed by electron microscopy.

Abstract: Abstract. The molecular conformation of Caz+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaM kinase II) from the rat forebrain and cerebellum was studied by means of EM using a quick-freezing technique. Each molecule appeared to be composed of two kinds of particles, with one larger central particle and smaller peripheral particles and had shapes resembling that of a flower with 8 or 10 "petals." A favorable shadowing revealed that each peripheral particle had a thin link to the central particle . We predicted tha… Show more

“…It is normally associated in a complex with the calcium carrier calmodulin and is coded then as CaMKII. Kanaseki et al (1991) published excellent observations of kinase II by electron microscopy. The molecule is bulky, so that the images come out well defined (Fig.1).…”

“…CAMKII is a multisubunit holoenzyme (32). The structure of the holoenzyme has alternatively been referred to as a hub and spoke pattern (33) or a gear and foot pattern (34) and enables a unique autoregulatory mechanism (33). In resting cells, the average Ca 2ϩ concentration is less than 100 nM, and the calmodulin concentration is ϳ10 M. The autoinhibitory domain (AID) of CAMKII interacts with its own catalytic domain resulting in the autoinhibition of catalytic activity.…”

“…Previous reports suggested a role of CaMkinase II in gastric acid secretion [16,17]. A highly specific inhibitor of CaMki-many peripheral tissues, in contrast to the A and the β isoforms, but seem to be expressed at lower levels than the A and β isonase II, the synthetic KN-62 [18,19], blocked over 3Ϫ60 µM carbachol-stimulated [ 14 C]aminopyrine uptake in isolated rabbit forms [15,26,27]. In contrast to other CaMkinases, the group of CaMkinase II forms holoenzymes from 250 kDa up to over gastric parietal cells and failed to inhibit the histamine-stimulated and forskolin-stimulated pathways [16].…”

“…A major target for Ca 2ϩ binding is the ubiquitous calmodulin [12Ϫ14]. respectively, which are likely homomeric [26]. The CaMkinase II isoforms γ and δ have only been characterized at the cDNA We recently found γ and δ subunits of Ca 2ϩ /calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMkinase II) in rat gastric mucosal cells level and have apparent molecular masses of 59 kDa and 60 kDa, respectively [24,25].…”
