Ligands: CA Gene: CALM1, CALM, CAM, CAM1 (HUMAN) Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Disease [KCNQ4_HUMAN] Defects in KCNQ4 are the cause of deafness autosomal dominant type 2A (DFNA2A) [MIM:600101]. DFNA2A is a form of sensorineural hearing loss. Sensorineural deafness results from damage to the neural receptors of the inner ear, the nerve pathways to the brain, or the area of the brain that receives sound information. [CALM1_HUMAN] The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Mutations in CALM1 are the cause of CPVT4. The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Mutations in CALM1 are the cause of LQT14. Function [KCNQ4_HUMAN] Probably important in the regulation of neuronal excitability. May underlie a potassium current involved in regulating the excitability of sensory cells of the cochlea. KCNQ4 channels are blocked by linopirdin, XE991 and bepridil, whereas clofilium is without significant effect. Muscarinic agonist oxotremorine-M strongly suppress KCNQ4 current in CHO cells in which cloned KCNQ4 channels were coexpressed with M1 muscarinic receptors. [CALM1_HUMAN] Calmodulin mediates the control of a large number of enzymes, ion channels, aquaporins and other proteins through calcium-binding. Among the enzymes to be stimulated by the calmodulin-calcium complex are a number of protein kinases and phosphatases. Together with CCP110 and centrin, is involved in a genetic pathway that regulates the centrosome cycle and progression through cytokinesis (PubMed:16760425). Mediates calcium-dependent inactivation of CACNA1C (PubMed:26969752). Positively regulates calcium-activated potassium channel activity of KCNN2 (PubMed:27165696). Publication Abstract from PubMed Calmodulin (CaM) conveys intracellular Ca(2+) signals to KCNQ (Kv7, "M-type") K(+) channels and many other ion channels. Whether this "calmodulation" involves a dramatic structural rearrangement or only slight perturbations of the CaM-KCNQ complex is as yet unclear. A consensus structural model of conformational shifts occurring between low-nM to physiologically high intracellular [Ca(2+)] is still under debate. Here, we used various techniques of biophysical chemical analyses to investigate the interactions between CaM and synthetic peptides corresponding to the A and B domains of the KCNQ4 subtype. We found that in the absence of CaM, the peptides are disordered, whereas Ca(2+)/CaM imposed helical structure on both KCNQ A and B domains. Isothermal titration calorimetry revealed that Ca(2+)/CaM has higher affinity for the B domain than for the A domain of KCNQ2-4 and much higher affinity for the B domain when prebound with the A domain. X-ray crystallography confirmed these discrete peptides spontaneously bind Ca(2+)/CaM, similar to previous reports of CaM binding KCNQ-AB domains that are linked together. Microscale thermophoresis and HSQC-NMR indicated the C-lobe of Ca(2+)-free CaM to interact with the KCNQ4 B domain (Kd ~10-20 microM), with increasing Ca(2+) molar ratios shifting the CaM-B domain interactions via only the CaM C-lobe to also include the N-lobe. Our findings suggest that in response to increased Ca(2+), CaM undergoes lobe-switching that imposes a dramatic mutually induced conformational fit to both the proximal C-terminus of KCNQ4 channels and CaM, likely underlying Ca(2+)-dependent regulation of KCNQ gating. A mutually-induced conformational fit underlies Ca(2+)-directed interactions between calmodulin and the proximal C terminus of KCNQ4 K(+) channels.,Archer CR, Enslow BT, Taylor AB, De la Rosa V, Bhattacharya A, Shapiro MS J Biol Chem. 2019 Feb 26. pii: RA118.006857. doi: 10.1074/jbc.RA118.006857.
