钙调素对微管组装的调节作用
THE REGULATORY ROLE OF CALMODULIN IN MICROTUBULE ASSEMBLY
【摘要】 利用我们建成的钙调素(calmodulin,CaM)表达可调细胞模型──RC3细胞,对CaM高表达时微管(microtubule,MT)组装行为进行了研究。当用生理剂量(1 μmol/L)的地塞米松(daxamethasone,DXM)处理RC3细胞后,细胞内CaM水平提高,而管蛋白浓度没有变化,造成钙调素/管蛋白比值上升,MT解聚。但同时加入CaM桔抗剂三氟拉嗓(trifluoperazine,TFP)处理时,则可抑制MT的解聚。C3H10T1/2转化细胞CaM含量的增加是引起MT解聚的主要因素,TFP处理可恢复MT组装。RC3细胞CaM高表达导致MT解聚的实验结果是细胞转化后CaM含量增加致使MT不稳定的有力佐证,说明钙调素与管蛋白间浓度比的动态平衡是维持MT系统相对稳定的重要条件。
【Abstract】 To study the role of calmodulin(CaM)in assembly of microtubules(MT),the RC3 cell line containing the eukaryotic expression vector PCaM was used in this experiment,The CaM mRNA and protein levels in RC3 cells were transiently increased by treatment with dexamethasone(DXM).After treatment with lμ mol/L DXM for 12h,the CaM mRNA and protein levels were significantly increased,while tubulin level was not changed.The elevation of CaM level in RC3 cells resuted in an increase in the ratio of CaM to tubulin,After addition of DXM for l2 or l8h,the MTs in RC3 cells were depolymerized,while in the presence of 10 Pmol/L CaM antagonist──trifluoperazine(TFP),the depolymerization of MT was inhibited.In comparison with normal CeH10 T1/2 cells,the distribution of MT was diminished,while the CaM content was increased in the transformed C3H10T10T1/2 cells,It is noteworthy to note that the distribution of MT was recovered after treatment with 5 μmol/L TFP for 7d.The above results indicated that the CaM concentration can modulate the level of polymerization of MT.Elevated level of CaM intransformed cells could destabilize the MT and lead to depolymerization of MT.
