Specific proteolysis of neuronal protein GAP-43 by calpain: Characterization, regulation, and physiological role. Zakharov, V., Bogdanova, M., & Mosevitsky, M. Biokhimiya, 70(8):1086-1098, 2005. cited By 5
Paper abstract bibtex The mechanism of specific proteolysis of the neuronal protein GAP-43 in axonal terminals has been investigated. In synaptic terminals in vivo and in synaptosomes in vitro GAP-43 is cleaved only at the single peptide bond formed by Ser41; this is within the main effector domain of GAP-43. Proteolysis at this site involves the cysteine calcium-dependent neutral protease calpain. The following experimental evidences support this conclusion: 1) calcium-dependent proteolysis of GAP-43 in synaptosomes is insensitive to selective inhibitor of μ-calpain (PD151746), but it is completely blocked by μ- and m-calpain inhibitor PD150606; 2) GAP-43 proteolysis in the calcium ionophore A23187-treated synaptosomes is activated by millimolar concentration of calcium ions; 3) the pattern of fragmentation of purified GAP-43 by m-calpain (but not by μ-calpain) is identical to that observed in synaptic terminals in vivo. GAP-43 phosphorylated at Ser41 by protein kinase C (PKC) is resistant to the cleavage by calpain. In addition, calmodulin binding to GAP-43 decreases the rate of calpain-mediated GAP-43 proteolysis. Our results indicate that m-calpain-mediated GAP-43 proteolysis regulated by PKC and calmodulin is of physiological relevance, particularly in axonal growth cone guidance. We suggest that the function of the N-terminal fragment of GAP-43 (residues 1-40) formed during cleavage by m-calpain consists in activation of neuronal heterotrimeric GTP-binding protein Go; this results in growth cone turning in response to repulsive signals.
