Structural basis for the subtype-selectivity of K Ca 2.2 channel activators

Small-conductance (K Ca 2.2) and intermediate-conductance (K Ca 3.1) Ca 2+ -activated K + channels are gated by a Ca 2+ -calmodulin dependent mechanism. NS309 potentiates the activity of both K Ca 2.2 and K Ca 3.1, while rimtuzalcap selectively activates K Ca 2.2. Rimtuzalcap has been used in clinical trials for the treatment of spinocerebellar ataxia and essential tremor. We report cryo-electron microscopy structures of NS309-bound K Ca 2.2 and K Ca 3.1, in addition to structures of rimtuzalcap-bound K Ca 2.2 and mutant K Ca 3.1_R355K. The different conformations of calmodulin and the cytoplasmic HC helices in the two channels underlie the subtype-selectivity of rimtuzalcap for K Ca 2.2. NS309 binds to pre-existing pockets in both channels, while the bulkier rimtuzalcap binds in an induced-fit pocket in K Ca 2.2 requiring conformational changes. In K Ca 2.2, calmodulin’s N-lobes are sufficiently far apart to enable conformational changes to accommodate either NS309 or rimtuzalcap. In K Ca 3.1, calmodulin’s N-lobes are closer to each other and constrained by K Ca 3.1’s HC helices, which allows binding of NS309 but not rimtuzalcap. Replacement of arginine-355 in K Ca 3.1’s HB helix with lysine (K Ca 3.1_R355K) allows the binding of rimtuzalcap and renders the mutant channel sensitive to rimtuzalcap. These structures provide a framework for structure-based drug design targeting K Ca 2.2 channels.

Selective posttranslational inhibition of Ca V β 1 -associated voltage-dependent calcium channels with a functionalized nanobody

Ca 2+ influx through high-voltage-activated calcium channels (HVACCs) controls diverse cellular functions. A critical feature enabling a singular signal, Ca 2+ influx, to mediate disparate functions is diversity of HVACC pore-forming α1 and auxiliary Ca V β 1 –Ca V β 4 subunits. Selective Ca V α 1 blockers have enabled deciphering their unique physiological roles. By contrast, the capacity to post-translationally inhibit HVACCs based on Ca V β isoform is non-existent. Conventional gene knockout/shRNA approaches do not adequately address this deficit owing to subunit reshuffling and partially overlapping functions of Ca V β isoforms. Here, we identify a nanobody (nb.E8) that selectively binds Ca V β 1 SH3 domain and inhibits Ca V β 1 -associated HVACCs by reducing channel surface density, decreasing open probability, and speeding inactivation. Functionalizing nb.E8 with Nedd4L HECT domain yielded Chisel-1 which eliminated current through Ca V β 1 -reconstituted Ca V 1/Ca V 2 and native Ca V 1.1 channels in skeletal muscle, strongly suppressed depolarization-evoked Ca 2+ influx and excitation-transcription coupling in hippocampal neurons, but was inert against Ca V β 2 -associated Ca V 1.2 in cardiomyocytes. The results introduce an original method for probing distinctive functions of ion channel auxiliary subunit isoforms, reveal additional dimensions of Ca V β 1 signaling in neurons, and describe a genetically-encoded HVACC inhibitor with unique properties.

Ca-isotopes as a robust tracer of magmatic differentiation

The large mass difference (~10%) between the two most abundant isotopes of calcium, 40 Ca and 44 Ca, gives Ca great potential in tracking mass-dependent fractionation during magmatic processes. Resolvable Ca-isotope fractionation during fractional crystallization of magma, particularly by feldspar in evolved melts, has been theoretically inferred but not robustly tested in nature. To further explore the effects of magmatic differentiation on Ca-isotope systematics, we studied the late-Permian alkaline igneous suite of the Øyangen Caldera, Oslo Rift, Norway, consisting of volcanic and intrusive units ranging from basanitic to rhyolitic compositions. Major and trace element variations and modeling demonstrate that the main series of samples (N = 21), including basanites, ring-dyke syenites, and central-dome syenites, likely documents a co-genetic and closed-system fractional crystallization sequence. Our data show minimal δ 44/40 Ca variation (< 0.05 ‰) in the intermediate magma and a marked increase in δ 44/40 Ca in the felsic magma of the Øyangen Caldera (from 0.62 ± 0.02 ‰ to 1.15 ± 0.03 ‰ relative to Ca standard, SRM915a). The systematic increase is best explained by equilibrium isotopic fractionation dominated by alkali feldspar in the fractionating mineral assemblage. This is further supported by strong correlations between δ 44/40 Ca, CaO, and Eu/Eu* in the main-series samples. Implementing a Monte Carlo approach, isotopic modeling of the liquid line of descent using Rayleigh fractionation is highly consistent with the observed Ca-isotope evolution. For the first time, we confirm prominent Ca stable isotope fractionation in felsic-stage differentiation of alkaline magma and constrain the isotope fractionation factors of plagioclase and K-feldspar. Integrated with extant estimations on mineral fractionation factors from the literature, our results suggest increasing fractionation effects of rock-forming minerals with decreasing Ca content. Finally, the affirmation of significant Ca-isotope fractionation in alkaline magma by feldspar empowers the application of Ca as a versatile tracer of crustal evolution, allowing further tests in other magmatic conditions across various planetary objects.

Phase Stability and Kinetics of Topotactic Dual Ca 2+ –Na + Ion Electrochemistry in NaSICON NaV 2 (PO 4 ) 3

Recent reports of reversible calcium plating and stripping have rekindled interest in the development of Ca-ion batteries (CIBs) as next-generation energy storage devices. This technology has the potential to overcome the limitations of conventional Li-ion batteries, but CIBs are plagued by a paucity of suitable cathode materials. To date, NaSICON-structured NaV 2 (PO 4 ) 3 has been demonstrated as a successful cathode candidate, exhibiting reversible (de)intercalation of 0.6 mol Ca 2+ along with stable cycling performance. However, a complex multiphase mixture forms on discharge so the Ca-ion charge storage mechanism in the NaSICON framework is poorly understood. Here in this work, we report on an investigation of the structure and/or Na + /Ca 2+ environment(s) of a variety of chemically prepared NaSICON Ca x Na y V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 phases which were characterized using synchrotron XRD, SEM-EDS, 23 Na NMR, and TEM. Highly calciated CaV 2 (PO 4 ) 3 , Ca 1.5 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 , and CaNaV 2 (PO 4 ) 3 phases can be prepared at high temperature, but -unlike Ca 0.6 NaV 2 (PO 4 ) 3 -these materials are electrochemically inactive. To better understand the fundamental factors impacting successful Ca 2+ electrochemistry in this system, DFT was employed to examine the Ca x Na y V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 phase diagram and Ca 2+ diffusion mechanism. Theoretical insights show that phase separation into Na-rich and Ca-rich phases is a reason for the capacity limitation and demonstrate that Na + ions in the host materials assist the migration of neighboring Ca 2+ ions, enabling reversible electrochemistry in Ca x Na y V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 . This investigation of fundamental principles affecting reversible Ca 2+ (de)intercalation in Ca x Na y V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 allows for the development of design principles to enable the discovery of a variety of successful cathodes for CIBs.

Association between soil organic carbon and calcium in acidic grassland soils from Point Reyes National Seashore, CA

Organo-mineral and organo-metal associations play an important role in the retention and accumulation of soil organic carbon (SOC). Recent studies have demonstrated a positive correlation between calcium (Ca) and SOC content in a range of soil types. However, most of these studies have focused on soils that contain calcium carbonate (pH > 6). To assess the importance of Ca-SOC associations in lower pH soils, we investigated their physical and chemical interaction in the grassland soils of Point Reyes National Seashore (CA, USA) at a range of spatial scales. Multivariate analyses of our bulk soil characterisation dataset showed a strong correlation between exchangeable Ca (Ca Exch ; 5–8.3 c.mol c kg –1 ) and SOC (0.6–4%) content. Additionally, linear combination fitting (LCF) of bulk Ca K-edge X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) spectra revealed that Ca was predominantly associated with organic carbon across all samples. Scanning transmission X-ray microscopy near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy (STXM C/Ca NEXAFS) showed that Ca had a strong spatial correlation with C at the microscale. The STXM C NEXAFS K-edge spectra indicated that SOC had a higher abundance of aromatic/olefinic and phenolic C functional groups when associated with Ca, relative to C associated with Fe. In regions of high Ca-C association, the STXM C NEXAFS spectra were similar to the spectrum from lignin, with moderate changes in peak intensities and positions that are consistent with oxidative C transformation. Through this association, Ca thus seems to be preferentially associated with plant-like organic matter that has undergone some oxidative transformation, at depth in acidic grassland soils of California. Our study highlights the importance of Ca-SOC complexation in acidic grassland soils and provides a conceptual model of its contribution to SOC preservation, a research area that has previously been unexplored.

Role of Eu-Doping in the Electron Transport Behavior in the Zintl Thermoelectric Ca 5-x-y Yb x Eu y Al 2 Sb 6 System

A series of Eu-doped Zintl compounds belonging to theCa 5-x-y Yb x Eu y Al 2 Sb 6 (x = 0, 1.12; 0 ≤ y ≤ 0.63(2)) system have been successfully synthesized by both the arc-melting and the molten Pb-flux methods. All of the five title compounds initially crystallized in the Ca 5 Ga 2 As 6 -type phase (space group Pbam, Z = 2, Pearson code oP26) and maintained their original structure even after the post-heat treatment, unlike the recently reported n-type Zintl analogues in the Ca 5-x-y Yb x RE y Al 2 Sb 6 (RE = Pr, Nd, Sm) systems, which underwent a phase transition from the Ca 5 Ga 2 As 6 -type to the Ca 5 Al 2 Bi 6 -type phase after annealing. This research aimed to understand the origin of the structural preference of the title Ca 5-x-y Yb x Eu y Al 2 Sb 6 system, whether it was affected by the valence electron count or the cationic size. Electrical transport property measurements showed an increase in electrical conductivities and a decrease of Seebeck coefficients for Ca 4.89(1) Eu 0.11 Al 2 Sb 6 , Ca 4.82(1) Eu 0.18 Al 2 Sb 6 , and Ca 4.62(1) Eu 0.38 Al 2 Sb 6 , compared to the parental compound Ca 5 Al 2 Sb 6 . Hole effect measurements proved that these changes should be attributed to the reduced carrier concentration and enhanced carrier mobility. The comprehensive density functional theory calculations including electron density map analysis for the hypothetical model Ca 4.5 Eu 0.5 Al 2 Sb 6 revealed that the polarity between Al and Sb forming the anionic frameworks decreased as the Eu-dopants were introduced, which eventually affected the carrier mobility in the anionic frameworks. Thermal conductivity measurements proved that the Eu-doping successfully lowered the lattice thermal conductivity because of the enhanced atomic disordering. In conclusion, the magnetization measurements for Ca 4.37(2) Eu 0.63 Al 2 Sb 6 showed a typical Curie–Weiss behavior with weak antiferromagnetic nearest-neighbor interactions with θ p = -5.07 K.
