Calpains are a family of calcium-dependent cysteine-proteases involved in cytoskeleton remodelling and muscle differentiation. In a recent study, we observed the presence of calpain 1 in the muscle contractile apparatus and specifically in the N1- and N2-lines. This calpain isoform was found to be involved in the degradation of muscle fibres via proteolysis of key proteins in Z-disk and costameric junctions. The goal of this study was to determine whether gamma-filamin--a specific muscle isoform of the filamin family--is a calpain 1 substrate and to characterise this interaction. Gamma-filamin is a major muscle architectural protein located in the Z-line and under the sarcolemmal membrane. This protein is a component of the chain binding the sarcolemma to the sarcomeric structure. In this study, we found that gamma-filamin formed a stable complex in vitro and in cells with calpain 1 in the absence of calcium stimulation. We also located the binding domains in the C-terminus of gamma-filamin with a cleavage site between serine 2626 and serine 2627 in the hinge 2 region. The catalytic (80 kDa) and regulatory (28 kDa) subunits of calpain 1 are both involved in high affinity binding at gamma-filamin. Moreover, we showed that phosphorylation of the filamin C-terminus domain by PKC alpha protected gamma-filamin against proteolysis by calpain 1 in COS cells. Stimulation of PKC activity in myotubes, prevented gamma-filamin proteolysis by calpain and resulted in an increase in myotube adhesion. |
