常染色体隐性小脑症(Autosomal recessive primary microcephaly, MCPH)是一种与大脑缩小和智力缺陷有关的神经发育障碍。 ASPM(abnormal spindle-like microcephaly-associated)是最常见的MCPH的致病基因,但其潜在机制尚不清楚。我们发现钙调蛋白(calmodulin, CaM)通过与ASPM的IQ区域相互作用而对ASPM的功能有重要的调控作用。我们纯化了ASPM IQ区域和CaM的复合物,并通过分子排阻色谱结合多角度静态光散射(SEC-MALS)和圆二光谱(CD)实验发现了ASPM和apo_CaM的结合比例为1:8。有趣的是,在Ca2+存在时,ASPM的IQ区域与Ca2+_CaM的结合比例变为了1:7。此外,通过比较不同条件下(Ca2+存在与否)的CD光谱,ASPM-CaM复合物显示出Ca2+依赖性的热稳定性变化。综上所述,我们的研究揭示了Ca2+诱导的ASPM-CaM相互作用的调节机制。
Autosomal recessive primary microcephaly is a neurodevelopmental disorder associated with reduced brain size and intellectual disability. ASPM (abnormal spindle-like microcephaly-associated) is the most common recessive microcephaly gene, but the underlying mechanism is poorly understood. Here, we show that calmodulin function as a vital regulator of ASPM by interacting with its IQ-region. The complex of ASPM IQ-region and apo_calmodulin was purified and biochemically characterized with a 1:8 stoichiometry by size exclusion chromatography coupled with multi-angle static light scattering (SEC-MALS) and circular dichroism spectroscopy (CD). Interestingly, the binding ratio of ASPM IQ-region with Ca2+_calmodulin changed to 1:7 in the presence of Ca2+. In addition, by comparing the CD spectra with and without Ca2+, the ASPM-Calmodulin complex showed Ca2+-dependent thermal stability change. Taken together these results suggested a Ca2+-induced regulation mechanism of ASPM-calmodulin interaction.
