Abstract

Neuronal voltage-gated sodium channel Na1.2 C-terminal domain (CTD) binds calmodulin (CaM) constitutively at its IQ motif. A solution structure (6BUT) and other NMR evidence showed that the CaM N domain (CaM) is structurally independent of the C-domain (CaM) whether CaM is bound to the Na1.2 (1,901-1,927) or Na1.2 (1,777-1,937) with or without calcium. However, in the CaM + Na1.2 complex, the Ca affinity of CaM was more favorable than in free CaM, while Ca affinity for CaM was weaker than in the CaM + Na1.2 complex. The CTD EF-like (EFL) domain allosterically widened the energetic gap between CaM domains. Cardiomyopathy-associated CaM mutants (N53I(N54I), D95V(D96V), A102V(A103V), E104A(E105A), D129G(D130G), and F141L(F142L)) all bound the Na1.2 IQ motif favorably under resting (apo) conditions and bound calcium normally at CaM sites. However, only N53I and A102V bound calcium at CaM sites at [Ca] < 100 μM. Thus, they are expected to respond like wild-type CaM to Ca spikes in excitable cells.
