It has been found in in vitro experiments that fluorescence intensity of deionized solution containing a chlorotetracycline fluorescent probe increases insignificantly at the addition of calmodulin of S-100 proteins. Subsequent introduction of Ca2+ into the medium results in the pronounced fluorescence increase depending on Ca2+ concentration. Addition of specific protein blockers--W7 (calmodulin inhibitor) and antibodies to S-100 brought about a decrease of fluorescence. In in vivo experiments on chlorotetracycline-stained neurons of Helix Pomatia ganglia subesophageal complex it has been shown that bringing of antibodies to S-100 and calmodulin significantly decreases the fluorescence intensity of these cells. These data suggest that the chlorotetracycline probe is an indicator of calcium ions binding with calcium-binding proteins both in in vitro and in vivo systems.
