Electrostatic interactions between single arginine and phospholipids modulate physiological properties of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca 2+-ATPase. Sci Rep 2022; 12:12200.

Abstract
Arg324 of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase forms electrostatic interactions with the phosphate moiety of phospholipids in most reaction states, and a hydrogen bond with Tyr122 in other states. Using site-directed mutagenesis, we explored the functional roles of Arg324 interactions, especially those with lipids, which at first glance might seem too weak to modulate the function of such a large membrane protein. The hydrogen bond forms transiently and facilitates Ca2+ binding from the cytoplasmic side. The contributions of the electrostatic interactions to the reaction steps were quantified using a rate vs activity coefficient plot. We found that the interaction between Arg324 and lipids decreases the affinity for luminal Ca2+. The transformation rate of the phosphoenzyme intermediate is facilitated by the electrostatic interactions, and the function of these interactions depends not only on the type but also on the composition of the phospholipids. The properties observed in microsomes could not be reproduced with any single phospholipid, but with a mixture of phospholipids that mimics the native membrane. These results suggest the importance of swapping of the lipid partners of different headgroups in the reaction step. This study shows that Arg324 plays a role in the reaction cycle via complex intra-protein and protein-lipid interactions.

Angle change of the A-domain in a single SERCA1a molecule detected by defocused orientation imaging. Sci Rep 2021; 11:13672.

Abstract
The sarcoendoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) transports Ca2+ ions across the membrane coupled with ATP hydrolysis. Crystal structures of ligand-stabilized molecules indicate that the movement of actuator (A) domain plays a crucial role in Ca2+ translocation. However, the actual structural movements during the transitions between intermediates remain uncertain, in particular, the structure of E2PCa2 has not been solved. Here, the angle of the A-domain was measured by defocused orientation imaging using isotropic total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy. A single SERCA1a molecule, labeled with fluorophore ReAsH on the A-domain in fixed orientation, was embedded in a nanodisc, and stabilized on Ni–NTA glass. Activation with ATP and Ca2+ caused angle changes of the fluorophore and therefore the A-domain, motions lost by inhibitor, thapsigargin. Our high-speed set-up captured the motion during EP isomerization, and suggests that the A-domain rapidly rotates back and forth from an E1PCa2 position to a position close to the E2P state. This is the first report of the detection in the movement of the A-domain as an angle change. Our method provides a powerful tool to investigate the conformational change of a membrane protein in real-time.

Abstract
Many bacteria export intracellular calcium using active transporters homologous to the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA). Here we present three crystal structures of Ca2+-ATPase 1 from Listeria monocytogenes (LMCA1). Structures with BeF3- mimicking a phosphoenzyme state reveal a closed state, which is intermediate between the outward-open E2P and the proton-occluded E2-P* conformations known for SERCA. It suggests that LMCA1 in the E2P state is pre-organized for dephosphorylation upon Ca2+ release, consistent with the rapid dephosphorylation observed in single-molecule studies. An arginine side-chain occupies the position equivalent to calcium binding site I in SERCA, leaving a single Ca2+ binding site in LMCA1, corresponding to SERCA site II. Observing no putative transport pathways dedicated to protons, we infer a direct proton counter transport through the Ca2+ exchange pathways. The LMCA1 structures provide insight into the evolutionary divergence and conserved features of this important class of ion transporters.

Abstract
Sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase catalyzes ATP-driven Ca2+ transport from the cytoplasm to the lumen and is critical for a range of cell functions, including muscle relaxation. Here, we investigated the effects of the headgroups of the 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl glycerophospholipids phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylserine (PS), and phosphatidylglycerol (PG) on sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+-ATPase embedded into a nanodisc, a lipid-bilayer construct harboring the specific lipid. We found that Ca2+-ATPase activity in a PC bilayer is comparable with that of SR vesicles and is suppressed in the other phospholipids, especially in PS. Ca2+ affinity at the high-affinity transport sites in PC was similar to that of SR vesicles, but 2-3-fold reduced in PE and PS. Ca2+ on- and off-rates in the non-phosphorylated ATPase were markedly reduced in PS. Rate-limiting phosphoenzyme (EP) conformational transition in 0.1 m KCl was as rapid in PC as in SR vesicles, but slowed in other phospholipids, especially in PS. Using kinetic plots of the logarithm of rate versus the square of mean activity coefficient of solutes in 0.1-1 m KCl, we noted that PC is optimal for the EP transition, but PG and especially PS had markedly unfavorable electrostatic effects, and PE exhibited a strong non-electrostatic restriction. Thus, the major SR membrane lipid PC is optimal for all steps and, unlike the other headgroups, contributes favorable electrostatics and non-electrostatic elements during the EP transition. Our analyses further revealed that the surface charge of the lipid bilayer directly modulates the transition rate.

Membrane Perturbation of ADP-insensitive Phosphoenzyme of Ca 2+-ATPase Modifies Gathering of Transmembrane Helix M2 with Cytoplasmic Domains and Luminal Gating. Sci Rep 2017; 7:41172.

Abstract
Ca2+ transport by sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase involves ATP-dependent phosphorylation of a catalytic aspartic acid residue. The key process, luminal Ca2+ release occurs upon phosphoenzyme isomerization, abbreviated as E1PCa2 (reactive to ADP regenerating ATP and with two occluded Ca2+ at transport sites) → E2P (insensitive to ADP and after Ca2+ release). The isomerization involves gathering of cytoplasmic actuator and phosphorylation domains with second transmembrane helix (M2), and is epitomized by protection of a Leu119-proteinase K (prtK) cleavage site on M2. Ca2+ binding to the luminal transport sites of E2P, producing E2PCa2 before Ca2+-release exposes the prtK-site. Here we explore E2P structure to further elucidate luminal gating mechanism and effect of membrane perturbation. We find that ground state E2P becomes cleavable at Leu119 in a non-solubilizing concentration of detergent C12E8 at pH 7.4, indicating a shift towards a more E2PCa2-like state. Cleavage is accelerated by Mg2+ binding to luminal transport sites and blocked by their protonation at pH 6.0. Results indicate that possible disruption of phospholipid-protein interactions strongly favors an E2P species with looser head domain interactions at M2 and responsive to specific ligand binding at the transport sites, likely an early flexible intermediate in the development towards ground state E2P.

Abstract
The cytoplasmic actuator domain of the sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase undergoes large rotational movements that influence the distant transmembrane transport sites, and a long second transmembrane helix (M2) connected with this domain plays critical roles in transmitting motions between the cytoplasmic catalytic domains and transport sites. Here we explore possible structural roles of Gly105 between the cytoplasmic (M2c) and transmembrane (M2m) segments of M2 by introducing mutations that limit/increase conformational freedom. Alanine substitution G105A markedly retards isomerization of the phosphoenzyme intermediate (E1PCa2 → E2PCa2 → E2P + 2Ca2+), and disrupts Ca2+ occlusion in E1PCa2 and E2PCa2 at the transport sites uncoupling ATP hydrolysis and Ca2+ transport. In contrast, this substitution accelerates the ATPase activation (E2 → E1Ca2). Introducing a glycine by substituting another residue on M2 in the G105A mutant (i.e. "G-shift substitution") identifies the glycine positions required for proper Ca2+ handling and kinetics in each step. All wild-type kinetic properties, including coupled transport, are fully restored in the G-shift substitution at position 112 (G105A/A112G) located on the same side of the M2c helix as Gly105 facing M4/phosphorylation domain. Results demonstrate that Gly105 functions as a flexible knee-like joint during the Ca2+ transport cycle, so that cytoplasmic domain motions can bend and strain M2 in the correct direction or straighten the helix for proper gating and coupling of Ca2+ transport and ATP hydrolysis.

Abstract
The P-type ATPases form an autophosphorylated intermediate with ATP, and its isomeric transition and hydrolysis are obligatory events in the ATP-driven pump and thus for the energy coupling. The analyses of these reactions are therefore crucial for understanding the mechanism of the pump function and diseases caused by its defects. Here we describe the methods to analyze these processes in the transport cycle with a representative member of P-type ATPase family, SERCA1a, sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase.

Abstract
The mechanism whereby events in and around the catalytic site/head of Ca(2+)-ATPase effect Ca(2+) release to the lumen from the transmembrane helices remains elusive. We developed a method to determine deoccluded bound Ca(2+) by taking advantage of its rapid occlusion upon formation of E1PCa2 and of stabilization afforded by a high concentration of Ca(2+). The assay is applicable to minute amounts of Ca(2+)-ATPase expressed in COS-1 cells. It was validated by measuring the Ca(2+) binding properties of unphosphorylated Ca(2+)-ATPase. The method was then applied to the isomerization of the phosphorylated intermediate associated with the Ca(2+) release process E1PCa2 → E2PCa2 → E2P + 2Ca(2+). In the wild type, Ca(2+) release occurs concomitantly with EP isomerization fitting with rate-limiting isomerization (E1PCa2 → E2PCa2) followed by very rapid Ca(2+) release. In contrast, with alanine mutants of Leu(119) and Tyr(122) on the cytoplasmic part of the second transmembrane helix (M2) and Ile(179) on the A domain, Ca(2+) release in 10 μm Ca(2+) lags EP isomerization, indicating the presence of a transient E2P state with bound Ca(2+). The results suggest that these residues function in Ca(2+) affinity reduction in E2P, likely via a structural rearrangement at the cytoplasmic part of M2 and a resulting association with the A and P domains, therefore leading to Ca(2+) release.

Abstract
The actuator (A) domain of sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase not only plays a catalytic role but also undergoes large rotational movements that influence the distant transport sites through connections with transmembrane helices M1 and M2. Here we explore the importance of long helix M2 and its junction with the A domain by disrupting the helix structure and elongating with insertions of five glycine residues. Insertions into the membrane region of M2 and the top junctional segment impair Ca(2+) transport despite reasonable ATPase activity, indicating that they are uncoupled. These mutants fail to occlude Ca(2+). Those at the top segment also exhibited accelerated phosphoenzyme isomerization E1P → E2P. Insertions into the middle of M2 markedly accelerate E2P hydrolysis and cause strong resistance to inhibition by luminal Ca(2+). Insertions along almost the entire M2 region inhibit the dephosphorylated enzyme transition E2 → E1. The results pinpoint which parts of M2 control cytoplasm gating and which are critical for luminal gating at each stage in the transport cycle and suggest that proper gate function requires appropriate interactions, tension, and/or rigidity in the M2 region at appropriate times for coupling with A domain movements and catalysis.

Abstract
During Ca(2+) transport by sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase, the conformation change of ADP-sensitive phosphoenzyme (E1PCa(2)) to ADP-insensitive phosphoenzyme (E2PCa(2)) is followed by rapid Ca(2+) release into the lumen. Here, we find that in the absence of K(+), Ca(2+) release occurs considerably faster than E1PCa(2) to E2PCa(2) conformation change. Therefore, the lumenal Ca(2+) release pathway is open to some extent in the K(+)-free E1PCa(2) structure. The Ca(2+) affinity of this E1P is as high as that of the unphosphorylated ATPase (E1), indicating the Ca(2+) binding sites are not disrupted. Thus, bound K(+) stabilizes the E1PCa(2) structure with occluded Ca(2+), keeping the Ca(2+) pathway to the lumen closed. We found previously (Yamasaki, K., Wang, G., Daiho, T., Danko, S., and Suzuki, H. (2008) J. Biol. Chem. 283, 29144-29155) that the K(+) bound in E2P reduces the Ca(2+) affinity essential for achieving the high physiological Ca(2+) gradient and to fully open the lumenal Ca(2+) gate for rapid Ca(2+) release (E2PCa(2) → E2P + 2Ca(2+)). These findings show that bound K(+) is critical for stabilizing both E1PCa(2) and E2P structures, thereby contributing to the structural changes that efficiently couple phosphoenzyme processing and Ca(2+) handling.

Abstract
We have developed a stable analog for the ADP-insensitive phosphoenzyme intermediate with two occluded Ca(2+) at the transport sites (E2PCa(2)) of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase. This is normally a transient intermediate state during phosphoenzyme isomerization from the ADP-sensitive to ADP-insensitive form and Ca(2+) deocclusion/release to the lumen; E1PCa(2) --> E2PCa(2) --> E2P + 2Ca(2+). Stabilization was achieved by elongation of the Glu(40)-Ser(48) loop linking the Actuator domain and M1 (1st transmembrane helix) with four glycine insertions at Gly(46)/Lys(47) and by binding of beryllium fluoride (BeF(x)) to the phosphorylation site of the Ca(2+)-bound ATPase (E1Ca(2)). The complex E2Ca(2)xBeF(3)(-) was also produced by lumenal Ca(2+) binding to E2xBeF(3)(-) (E2P ground state analog) of the elongated linker mutant. The complex was stable for at least 1 week at 25 degrees C. Only BeF(x), but not AlF(x) or MgF(x), produced the E2PCa(2) structural analog. Complex formation required binding of Mg(2+), Mn(2+), or Ca(2+) at the catalytic Mg(2+) site. Results reveal that the phosphorylation product E1PCa(2) and the E2P ground state (but not the transition states) become competent to produce the E2PCa(2) transient state during forward and reverse phosphoenzyme isomerization. Thus, isomerization and lumenal Ca(2+) release processes are strictly coupled with the formation of the acylphosphate covalent bond at the catalytic site. Results also demonstrate the critical structural roles of the Glu(40)-Ser(48) linker and of Mg(2+) at the catalytic site in these processes.

Abstract
Sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase is a representative member of P-type cation transporting ATPases and catalyzes Ca(2+) transport coupled with ATP hydrolysis. The ATPase possesses three cytoplasmic domains (N, P, and A) and ten transmembrane helices (M1-M10). Ca(2+) binding at the transport sites in the transmembrane domain activates the ATPase and then the catalytic aspartate is auto-phosphorylated to form the phosphorylated intermediate (EP). Structural and functional studies have shown that, during the isomerization of EP in the Ca(2+) transport cycle, large motions of the three cytoplasmic domains take place, which then rearranges the transmembrane helices thereby destroying the Ca(2+) binding sites, opening the lumenal gate, and thus releasing the Ca(2+) into lumen. Stable structural analogues for the Ca(2+)-occluded and -released states of phosphorylated intermediates and for the transition and product states of the phosphorylation and dephosphorylation reactions were developed for biochemical and atomic-level structural studies to reveal the coupled changes in the catalytic and transport sites. Mutation studies identified the residues and structural regions essential for the structural changes and Ca(2+) transport function. Genetic dysfunction of Ca(2+)-ATPase causes various isoform-specific diseases. In this manuscript, recent understanding of the Ca-ATPase will be reviewed.

Abstract
Roles of hydrogen bonding interaction between Ser(186) of the actuator (A) domain and Glu(439) of nucleotide binding (N) domain seen in the structures of ADP-insensitive phosphorylated intermediate (E2P) of sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase were explored by their double alanine substitution S186A/E439A, swap substitution S186E/E439S, and each of these single substitutions. All the mutants except the swap mutant S186E/E439S showed markedly reduced Ca(2+)-ATPase activity, and S186E/E439S restored completely the wild-type activity. In all the mutants except S186E/E439S, the isomerization of ADP-sensitive phosphorylated intermediate (E1P) to E2P was markedly retarded, and the E2P hydrolysis was largely accelerated, whereas S186E/E439S restored almost the wild-type rates. Results showed that the Ser(186)-Glu(439) hydrogen bond stabilizes the E2P ground state structure. The modulatory ATP binding at sub-mm approximately mm range largely accelerated the EP isomerization in all the alanine mutants and E439S. In S186E, this acceleration as well as the acceleration of the ATPase activity was almost completely abolished, whereas the swap mutation S186E/E439S restored the modulatory ATP acceleration with a much higher ATP affinity than the wild type. Results indicated that Ser(186) and Glu(439) are closely located to the modulatory ATP binding site for the EP isomerization, and that their hydrogen bond fixes their side chain configurations thereby adjusts properly the modulatory ATP affinity to respond to the cellular ATP level.

Abstract
As a stable analog for ADP-sensitive phosphorylated intermediate of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase E1PCa(2).Mg, a complex of E1Ca(2).BeF(x), was successfully developed by addition of beryllium fluoride and Mg(2+) to the Ca(2+)-bound state, E1Ca(2). In E1Ca(2).BeF(x), most probably E1Ca(2).BeF(3)(-), two Ca(2+) are occluded at high affinity transport sites, its formation required Mg(2+) binding at the catalytic site, and ADP decomposed it to E1Ca(2), as in E1PCa(2).Mg. Organization of cytoplasmic domains in E1Ca(2).BeF(x) was revealed to be intermediate between those in E1Ca(2).AlF(4)(-) ADP (transition state of E1PCa(2) formation) and E2.BeF(3)(-).(ADP-insensitive phosphorylated intermediate E2P.Mg). Trinitrophenyl-AMP (TNP-AMP) formed a very fluorescent (superfluorescent) complex with E1Ca(2).BeF(x) in contrast to no superfluorescence of TNP-AMP bound to E1Ca(2).AlF(x). E1Ca(2).BeF(x) with bound TNP-AMP slowly decayed to E1Ca(2), being distinct from the superfluorescent complex of TNP-AMP with E2.BeF(3)(-), which was stable. Tryptophan fluorescence revealed that the transmembrane structure of E1Ca(2).BeF(x) mimics E1PCa(2).Mg, and between those of E1Ca(2).AlF(4)(-).ADP and E2.BeF(3)(-). E1Ca(2).BeF(x) at low 50-100 microm Ca(2+) was converted slowly to E2.BeF(3)(-) releasing Ca(2+), mimicking E1PCa(2).Mg --> E2P.Mg + 2Ca(2+). Ca(2+) replacement of Mg(2+) at the catalytic site at approximately millimolar high Ca(2+) decomposed E1Ca(2).BeF(x) to E1Ca(2). Notably, E1Ca(2).BeF(x) was perfectly stabilized for at least 12 days by 0.7 mm lumenal Ca(2+) with 15 mm Mg(2+). Also, stable E1Ca(2).BeF(x) was produced from E2.BeF(3)(-) at 0.7 mm lumenal Ca(2+) by binding two Ca(2+) to lumenally oriented low affinity transport sites, as mimicking the reverse conversion E2P. Mg + 2Ca(2+) --> E1PCa(2).Mg.

Abstract
Tyr(122)-hydrophobic cluster (Y122-HC) is an interaction network formed by the top part of the second transmembrane helix and the cytoplasmic actuator and phosphorylation domains of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase. We have previously found that Y122-HC plays critical roles in the processing of ADP-insensitive phosphoenzyme (E2P) after its formation by the isomerization from ADP-sensitive phosphoenzyme (E1PCa(2)) (Wang, G., Yamasaki, K., Daiho, T., and Suzuki, H. (2005) J. Biol. Chem. 280, 26508-26516). Here, we further explored kinetic properties of the alanine-substitution mutants of Y122-HC to examine roles of Y122-HC for Ca(2+) release process in E2P. In the steady state, the amount of E2P decreased so that of E1PCa(2) increased with increasing lumenal Ca(2+) concentration in the mutants with K(0.5) 110-320 microm at pH 7.3. These lumenal Ca(2+) affinities in E2P agreed with those estimated from the forward and lumenal Ca(2+)-induced reverse kinetics of the E1PCa(2)-E2P isomerization. K(0.5) of the wild type in the kinetics was estimated to be 1.5 mM. Thus, E2P of the mutants possesses significantly higher affinities for lumenal Ca(2+) than that of the wild type. The kinetics further indicated that the rates of lumenal Ca(2+) access and binding to the transport sites of E2P were substantially slowed by the mutations. Therefore, the proper formation of Y122-HC and resulting compactly organized structure are critical for both decreasing Ca(2+) affinity and opening the lumenal gate, thus for Ca(2+) release from E2PCa(2). Interestingly, when K(+) was omitted from the medium of the wild type, the properties of the wild type became similar to those of Y122-HC mutants. K(+) binding likely functions via producing the compactly organized structure, in this sense, similarly to Y122-HC.

Abstract
The functional importance of the length of the A/M1 linker (Glu(40)-Ser(48)) connecting the actuator domain and the first transmembrane helix of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase was explored by its elongation with glycine insertion at Pro(42)/Ala(43) and Gly(46)/Lys(47). Two or more glycine insertions at each site completely abolished ATPase activity. The isomerization of phosphoenzyme (EP) intermediate from the ADP-sensitive form (E1P) to the ADP-insensitive form (E2P) was markedly accelerated, but the decay of EP was completely blocked in these mutants. The E2P accumulated was therefore demonstrated to be E2PCa(2) possessing two occluded Ca(2+) ions at the transport sites, and the Ca(2+) deocclusion and release into lumen were blocked in the mutants. By contrast, the hydrolysis of the Ca(2+)-free form of E2P produced from P(i) without Ca(2+) was as rapid in the mutants as in the wild type. Analysis of resistance against trypsin and proteinase K revealed that the structure of E2PCa(2) accumulated is an intermediate state between E1PCa(2) and the Ca(2+)-released E2P state. Namely in E2PCa(2), the actuator domain is already largely rotated from its position in E1PCa(2) and associated with the phosphorylation domain as in the Ca(2+)-released E2P state; however, in E2PCa(2), the hydrophobic interactions among these domains and Leu(119)/Tyr(122) on the top of second transmembrane helix are not yet formed properly. This is consistent with our previous finding that these interactions at Tyr(122) are critical for formation of the Ca(2+)-released E2P structure. Results showed that the EP isomerization/Ca(2+)-release process consists of the following two steps: E1PCa(2) --> E2PCa(2) --> E2P + 2Ca(2+); and the intermediate state E2PCa(2) was identified for the first time. Results further indicated that the A/M1 linker with its appropriately short length, probably because of the strain imposed in E2PCa(2), is critical for the correct positioning and interactions of the actuator and phosphorylation domains to cause structural changes for the Ca(2+) deocclusion and release.

Abstract
We examined possible defects of sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase 2b (SERCA2b) associated with its 51 mutations found in Darier disease (DD) pedigrees, i.e. most of the substitution and deletion mutations of residues reported so far. COS-1 cells were transfected with each of the mutant cDNAs, and the expression and function of the SERCA2b protein was analyzed with microsomes prepared from the cells and compared with those of the wild type. Fifteen mutants showed markedly reduced expression. Among the other 36, 29 mutants exhibited completely abolished or strongly inhibited Ca2+-ATPase activity, whereas the other seven possessed fairly high or normal ATPase activity. In four of the aforementioned seven mutants, Ca2+ transport activity was significantly reduced or almost completely lost, therefore uncoupled from ATP hydrolysis. The other three were exceptional cases as they were seemingly normal in protein expression and Ca2+ transport function, but were found to have abnormalities in the kinetic properties altered by the three mutations, which happened to be in the three DD pedigrees found by us previously (Sato, K., Yamasaki, K., Daiho, T., Miyauchi, Y., Takahashi, H., Ishida-Yamamoto, A., Nakamura, S., Iizuka, H., and Suzuki, H. (2004) J. Biol. Chem. 279, 35595-35603). Collectively, our results indicated that in most cases (48 of 51) DD mutations cause severe disruption of Ca2+ homeostasis by the defects in protein expression and/or transport function and hence DD, but even a slight disturbance of the homeostasis will result in the disease. Our results also provided further insight into the structure-function relationship of SERCAs and revealed critical regions and residues of the enzyme.

Abstract
Functional roles of seven hydrophobic residues on the interface between the actuator (A) and phosphorylation (P) domains of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase were explored by alanine and serine substitutions. The residues examined were Ile179/Leu180/Ile232 on the A domain, Val705/Val726 on the P domain, and Leu119/Tyr122 on the loop linking the A domain and M2 (the second transmembrane helix). These residues gather to form a hydrophobic cluster around Tyr122 in the crystal structures of Ca2+-ATPase in Ca2+-unbound E2 (unphosphorylated) and E2P (phosphorylated) states but are far apart in those of Ca2+-bound E1 (unphosphorylated) and E1P (phosphorylated) states. The substitution-effects were also compared with those of Ile235 on the A domain/M3 linker and those of T181GE of the A domain, since they are in the immediate vicinity of the Tyr122-cluster. All these substitutions almost completely inhibited ATPase activity without inhibiting Ca2+-activated E1P formation from ATP. Substitutions of Ile235 and T181GE blocked the E1P to E2P transition, whereas those in the Tyr122-cluster blocked the subsequent E2P hydrolysis. Substitutions of Ile235 and Glu183 also blocked EP hydrolysis. Results indicate that the Tyr122-cluster is formed during the E1P to E2P transition to configure the catalytic site and position Glu183 properly for hydrolyzing the acylphosphate. Ile235 on the A domain/M3 linker likely forms hydrophobic interactions with the A domain and thereby allowing the strain of this linker to be utilized for large motions of the A domain during these processes. The Tyr122-cluster, Ile235, and T181GE thus seem to have different roles and are critical in the successive events in processing phosphorylated intermediates to transport Ca2+.

Abstract
The possible functional abnormalities in three different Darier disease-causing Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA2b) mutants, Ile(274) --> Val at the lumenal end of M3, Leu(321) --> Phe on the cytoplasmic part of M4, and Met(719) --> Ile in P domain, were explored, because they exhibited nearly normal expression and localization in COS-1 cells and the high ATPase and coupled Ca(2+) transport activities that were essentially identical (L321F) or slightly lower (I274V by approximately 35% and M719I by approximately 30%) as compared with those of the wild type. These mutations happened to be in Japanese patients found previously by us. Kinetic analyses revealed that each of the mutants possesses distinct types of abnormalities; M719I and L321F possess the 2-3-fold reduced affinity for cytoplasmic Ca(2+), whereas I274V possesses the normal high affinity. L321F exhibited also the remarkably reduced sensitivity to the feedback inhibition of the transport cycle by accumulated lumenal Ca(2+), as demonstrated with the effect of Ca(2+) ionophore on ATPase activity and more specifically with the effects of Ca(2+) (up to 50 mm) on the decay of phosphoenzyme intermediates. The results on I274V and M719I suggest that the physiological requirement for Ca(2+) homeostasis in keratinocytes to avoid haploinsufficiency is very strict, probably much more than considered previously. The insensitivity to lumenal Ca(2+) in L321F likely brings the lumenal Ca(2+) to an abnormally elevated level. The three mutants with their distinctively altered kinetic properties will thus likely cause different types of perturbation of intracellular Ca(2+) homeostasis, but nevertheless all types of perturbation result in Darier disease. It might be possible that the observed unique feature of L321F could possibly be associated with the specific symptoms in the pedigree with this mutation, neuropsychiatric disorder, and behavior problems. The results also provided further insight into the global nature of conformational changes of SERCAs for ATP-driven Ca(2+) transport.

Abstract
By measuring the phosphorylation levels of individual proteolytic fragments of SERCA1a separated by electrophoresis after their phosphorylation, we were able to study the catalytic properties of a p95C-p14N complex arising from SERCA1a cleavage by proteinase K between Leu(119) and Lys(120), in the loop linking the A-domain with the second transmembrane segment. ATP hydrolysis by the complex was very strongly inhibited, although ATP-dependent phosphorylation and the conversion of the ADP-sensitive E1P form to E2P still occurred at appreciable rates. However, the rate of subsequent dephosphorylation of E2P was inhibited to a dramatic extent, and this was also the case for the rate of "backdoor" formation of E2P from E2 and P(i). E2P formation from E2 at equilibrium nevertheless indicated little change in the apparent affinity for P(i) or Mg(2+), while binding of orthovanadate was weaker. The p95C-p14N complex also had a slightly reduced affinity for Ca(2+) and exhibited a reduced rate for its Ca(2+)-dependent transition from E2 to Ca(2)E1. Thus, disruption of the N-terminal link of the A-domain with the transmembrane region seems to shift the conformational equilibria of Ca(2+)-ATPase from the E1/E1P toward the E2/E2P states and to increase the activation energy for dephosphorylation of Ca(2+)-ATPase, reviving the old idea of the A-domain being a phosphatase domain as part of the transduction machinery.

Abstract
We explored, by mutational substitutions and kinetic analysis, possible roles of the four residues involved in the hydrogen-bonding or ionic interactions found in the Ca2+-bound structure of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase, Tyr(122)-Arg(324), and Glu(123)-Arg(334) at the top part of second transmembrane helix (M2) connected to the A domain and fourth transmembrane helix (M4) in the P domain. The observed substitution effects indicated that Glu(123), Arg(334), and Tyr(122) contributed to the rapid transition between the Ca2+-unbound and bound states of the unphosphorylated enzyme. Results further showed the more profound inhibitory effects of the substitutions in the M4/P domain (Arg(324) and Arg(334)) upon the isomeric transition of phosphorylated intermediate (EP) (loss of ADP sensitivity) and those in M2/A domain (Tyr(122) and Glu(123)) upon the subsequent processing and hydrolysis of EP. The observed distinct effects suggest that the interactions seen in the Ca2+-bound structure are not functionally important but indicate that Arg(334) with its positive charge and Tyr(122) with its aromatic ring are critically important for the above distinct steps. On the basis of the available structural information, the results strongly suggest that Arg(334) moves downward and forms new interactions with M2 (likely Asn(111)); it thus contributes to the inclination of the M4/P domain toward the M2/A domain, which is crucial for the appropriate gathering between the P domain and the largely rotated A domain to cause the loss of ADP sensitivity. On the other hand, Tyr(122) most likely functions in the subsequent Ca2+-releasing step to produce hydrophobic interactions at the A-P domain interface formed upon their gathering and thus to produce the Ca2+-released form of EP. During the Ca2+-transport cycle, the four residues seem to change interaction partners and thus contribute to the coordinated movements of the cytoplasmic and transmembrane domains.

Abstract
Possible roles of the Glu40-Ser48 loop connecting A domain and the first transmembrane helix (M1) in sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA1a) were explored by mutagenesis. Deletions of any single residues in this loop caused almost complete loss of Ca(2+)-ATPase activity, while their substitutions had no or only slight effects. Single deletions or substitutions in the adjacent N- and C-terminal regions of the loop (His32-Asn39 and Leu49-Ile54) had no or only slight effects except two specific substitutions of Asn39 found in SERCA2b in Darier's disease pedigrees. All the single deletion mutants for the Glu40-Ser48 loop and the specific Asn39 mutants formed phosphoenzyme intermediate (EP) from ATP, but their isomeric transition from ADP-sensitive EP (E1P) to ADP-insensitive EP (E2P) was almost completely or strongly inhibited. Hydrolysis of E2P formed from Pi was also dramatically slowed in these deletion mutants. On the other hand, the rates of the Ca(2+)-induced enzyme activation and subsequent E1P formation from ATP were not altered by the deletions and substitutions. The results indicate that the Glu40-Ser48 loop, with its appropriate length (but not with specific residues) and with its appropriate junction to A domain, is a critical element for the E1P to E2P transition and formation of the proper structure of E2P, therefore, most likely for the large rotational movement of A domain and resulting in its association with P and N domains. Results further suggest that the loop functions to coordinate this movement of A domain and the unique motion of M1 during the E1P to E2P transition.

Abstract
Possible roles of the Lys(189)-Lys(205) outermost loop on the A domain of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase were explored by mutagenesis. Both nonconservative and conservative substitutions of Val(200) caused very strong inhibition of Ca(2+)-ATPase activity, whereas substitutions of other residues on this loop reduced activity only moderately. All of the Val(200) mutants formed phosphoenzyme intermediate (EP) from ATP. Isomerization from ADP-sensitive EP (E1P) to ADP-insensitive EP (E2P) was not inhibited in the mutants, and a substantially larger amount of E2P actually accumulated in the mutants than in wild-type sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase at steady state. In contrast, decay of EP formed from ATP in the presence of Ca(2+) was strongly inhibited in the mutants. Hydrolysis of E2P formed from P(i) in the absence of Ca(2+) was also strongly inhibited but was faster than the decay of EP formed from ATP, indicating that the main kinetic limitation of the decay comes after loss of ADP sensitivity but before E2P hydrolysis. On the basis of the well accepted mechanism of the Ca(2+)-ATPase, the limitation is likely associated with the Ca(2+)-releasing step from E2P.Ca(2). On the other hand, the rate of activation of dephosphorylated enzyme on high affinity Ca(2+) binding was not altered by the substitutions. In light of the crystal structures, the present results strongly suggest that Val(200) confers appropriate interactions of the Lys(189)-Lys(205) loop with the P domain in the Ca(2+)-released form of E2P. Results further suggest that these interactions, however, do not contribute much to domain organization in the dephosphorylated enzyme and thus would be mostly lost on E2P hydrolysis.

Abstract
After treatment of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase with proteinase K (PK) in the presence of Ca(2+) and a protecting non-phosphorylated ligand (e.g. adenosine 5'-(beta,gamma-methylenetriphosphate), we were able to prepare in high yield an ATPase species that only differs from intact ATPase because of excision of the MAATE(243) sequence from the loop linking the A domain with the third transmembrane segment. The PK-treated ATPase was unable to transport Ca(2+) and to catalyze ATP hydrolysis, but it could bind two calcium ions with high affinity and react with ATP to form a classical ADP-sensitive phosphoenzyme, Ca(2)E1P, with occluded Ca(2+). The ability of Ca(2)E1P to become converted to the Ca(2+)-free ADP-insensitive form, E2P, was strongly reduced, as was the ability of PK-treated ATPase to react with orthovanadate or to form an E2P intermediate from inorganic phosphate in the absence of Ca(2+). PK-treated ATPase also reacted with thapsigargin to form a complex with altered properties, and the tryptic cleavage "T2" site in the A domain was no longer protected in the absence of Ca(2+). It is probable that disrupting the C-terminal link of the A domain with the transmembrane region severely compromises reorientation of A and P domains and the functionally critical cross-talk of these domains with the membrane-bound Ca(2+) ions.

Abstract
Disulfide-containing peptides in pepsin digest of sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles were identified by using a fluorogenic thiol-specific reagent 4-fluoro-7-sulfamoylbenzofurazan and a reductant tributylphosphine. Sequencing of the purified peptides revealed the presence of a Cys(876)-Cys(888) disulfide bond on the luminal loop connecting the 7th and 8th transmembrane helices (loop 7-8) of the Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA1a). We substituted either or both of these cysteine residues with alanine and made three mutants (C876A, C888A, C876A/C888A), in which the disulfide bond is disrupted. The mutants and the wild type were expressed in COS-1 cells, and functional analysis was performed with the microsomes isolated from the cells. Electrophoresis performed under reducing and non-reducing conditions confirmed the presence of Cys(876)-Cys(888) disulfide bond in the expressed wild type. All the three mutants possessed high Ca(2+)-ATPase activity. In contrast, no Ca(2+) transport activity was detected with these mutants. These mutants formed almost the same amount of phosphoenzyme intermediate as the wild type from ATP and from P(i). Detailed kinetic analysis showed that the three mutants hydrolyze ATP in the mechanism well accepted for the Ca(2+)-ATPase; activation of the catalytic site upon high affinity Ca(2+) binding, formation of ADP-sensitive phosphoenzyme, subsequent rate-limiting transition to ADP-insensitive phosphoenzyme, and hydrolysis of the latter phosphoenzyme. It is likely that the pathway for delivery of Ca(2+) from the binding sites into the lumen of vesicles is disrupted by disruption of the Cys(876)-Cys(888) disulfide bond, and therefore that the loop 7-8 having the disulfide bond is important for formation of the proper structure of the Ca(2+) pathway.

Abstract
The report of the crystal structure of the Ca(2+)-ATPase of skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum in its Ca(2+)-bound form [Toyoshima, Nakasako and Ogawa (2000) Nature (London) 405, 647-655] provides an opportunity to interpret much kinetic and mutagenic data on the ATPase in structural terms. There are no large channels leading from the cytoplasmic surface to the pair of high-affinity Ca(2+) binding sites within the transmembrane region. One possible access pathway involves the charged residues in transmembrane alpha-helix M1, with a Ca(2+) ion passing through the first site to reach the second site. The Ca(2+)-ATPase also contains a pair of binding sites for Ca(2+) that are exposed to the lumen. In the four-site model for transport, phosphorylation of the ATPase leads to transfer of the two bound Ca(2+) ions from the cytoplasmic to the lumenal pair of sites. In the alternating four-site model for transport, phosphorylation leads to release of the bound Ca(2+) ions directly from the cytoplasmic pair of sites, linked to closure of the pair of lumenal binding sites. The lumenal pair of sites could involve a cluster of conserved acidic residues in the loop between M1 and M2. Since there is no obvious pathway from the high-affinity sites to the lumenal surface of the membrane, transport of Ca(2+) ions must involve a significant change in the packing of the transmembrane alpha-helices. The link between the phosphorylation domain and the pair of high-affinity Ca(2+) binding sites is probably provided by two small helices, P1 and P2, in the phosphorylation domain, which contact the loop between transmembrane alpha-helices M6 and M7.

Abstract
Amino acid residues in the NH(2)-terminal region (Glu(2) - Ala(14)) of adult fast twitch skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA1a) were deleted or substituted, and the mutants were expressed in COS-1 cells. Deletion of any single residue in the Ala(3)-Ser(6) region or deletion of two or more consecutive residues in the Ala(3)-Thr(9) region caused strongly reduced expression. Substitution mutants A4K, A4D, and H5K also showed very low expression levels. Deletion of any single residue in the Ala(3)-Ser(6) region caused only a small decrease in the specific Ca(2+) transport rate/mg of SERCA1a protein. In contrast, other mutants showing low expression levels had greatly reduced specific Ca(2+) transport rates. In vitro expression experiments indicated that translation, transcription, and integration into the microsomal membranes were not impaired in the mutants that showed very low expression levels in COS-1 cells. Pulse-chase experiments using [(35)S]methionine/cysteine labeling of transfected COS-1 cells demonstrated that degradation of the mutants showing low expression levels was substantially faster than that of the wild type. Lactacystin, a specific inhibitor of proteasome, inhibited the degradation accelerated by single-residue deletion of Ala(3). These results suggest that the NH(2)-terminal region (Ala(3) -Thr(9)) of SERCA1a is sensitive to the endoplasmic reticulum-mediated quality control and is thus critical for either correct folding of the SERCA1a protein or stabilization of the correctly folded SERCA1a protein or both.
