Cryo-EM structure of human TRPV6 in complex with Calmodulin
Structural highlights
FunctionTRPV6_HUMAN Calcium selective cation channel that mediates Ca(2+) uptake in various tissues, including the intestine (PubMed:11097838, PubMed:11278579, PubMed:11248124 PubMed:15184369, PubMed:23612980). Important for normal Ca(2+) ion homeostasis in the body, including bone and skin (By similarity). The channel is activated by low internal calcium level, probably including intracellular calcium store depletion, and the current exhibits an inward rectification (PubMed:15184369). Inactivation includes both a rapid Ca(2+)-dependent and a slower Ca(2+)-calmodulin-dependent mechanism; the latter may be regulated by phosphorylation. In vitro, is slowly inhibited by Mg(2+) in a voltage-independent manner. Heteromeric assembly with TRPV5 seems to modify channel properties. TRPV5-TRPV6 heteromultimeric concatemers exhibit voltage-dependent gating.[UniProtKB:Q91WD2][1] [2] [3] [4] [5] Publication Abstract from PubMedCalcium (Ca(2+)) plays a major role in numerous physiological processes. Ca(2+) homeostasis is tightly controlled by ion channels, the aberrant regulation of which results in various diseases including cancers. Calmodulin (CaM)-mediated Ca(2+)-induced inactivation is an ion channel regulatory mechanism that protects cells against the toxic effects of Ca(2+) overload. We used cryo-electron microscopy to capture the epithelial calcium channel TRPV6 (transient receptor potential vanilloid subfamily member 6) inactivated by CaM. The TRPV6-CaM complex exhibits 1:1 stoichiometry; one TRPV6 tetramer binds both CaM lobes, which adopt a distinct head-to-tail arrangement. The CaM carboxyl-terminal lobe plugs the channel through a unique cation-pi interaction by inserting the side chain of lysine K115 into a tetra-tryptophan cage at the pore's intracellular entrance. We propose a mechanism of CaM-mediated Ca(2+)-induced inactivation that can be explored for therapeutic design.
