Protein kinase C phosphorylates the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor type 2 and decreases the mobilization of Ca2+in pancreatoma AR4-2J cells
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In non-excitable cells, the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor channel, which plays a major (IP(3)R) is an intracellular Ca(2+) role in Ca(2+) signalling. Three isoforms of IP(3)R have been identified (IP(3)R-1, IP(3)R-2 and IP(3)R-3) and most cell types express different proportions of each isoform. The differences between the pharmacological and functional properties of the various isoforms of IP(3)R are poorly understood. AR4-2J cells, which express almost exclusively (~86%) the IP(3)R-2, represent an interesting model to study this particular isoform. Here, we investigated a regulatory mechanism by which protein kinase C (PKC) influences IP(3)R-2-mediated Ca(2+) release. Using an immunoprecipitation approach, we confirmed that AR4-2J cells express almost exclusively the IP(3)R-2 isoform. Using an in vitro phosphorylation assay, we showed that the immunopurified IP(3)R-2 was efficiently phosphorylated by exogenous PKC. In intact AR4-2J cells metabolically labelled with (32)Pi, we showed that phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA) and Ca(2+) mobilizing agonists cause the phosphorylation of IP(3)R-2. In saponin-permeabilized AR4-2J cells, IP(3)-induced Ca(2+) release was reduced after a pre-treatment with PMA or with exogenous PKC. PMA also reduced the Ca(2+) response of intact AR4-2J cells stimulated with carbachol and epidermal growth factor, two agonists that use different receptor types to activate phospholipase C. These results demonstrate that PKC decreases the Ca(2+)mobilizing activity of IP(3)R-2 and thus exerts a negative feedback on the agonists-induced Ca(2+) response of AR4-2J cells.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
