Possible involvement of reversible phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of myosin light chain (MLC) by myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) and protein phosphatases (PPases), respectively, in the Ca++-calmodulin-dependent inhibition of renin secretion was investigated with the use of putative MLCK inhibitor ML-7 [1-(5-iodonaphthalene-1-sulfonyl)-1H-hexahydro-1,4-diazepine] and PPase type1 (PPase-1) and type 2A (PPase-2A) inhibitor calyculin A. ML-7 (1 x 10(-)6 to 3 x 10(-)5 M) increased renin secretion in vitro from rat renal cortical slices under "resting" conditions in a concentration-dependent manner with maximal 2.5-fold stimulation. Furthermore, Ca++-induced inhibition of renin secretion in depolarizing K+-rich Krebs-Ringer bicarbonate not only was prevented completely but also reversed by ML-7 in a concentration-dependent and reversible manner. On the other hand, calyculin A (3 x 10(-)6 M) blocked both effects of ML-7 on stimulation and reversal of renin secretion independently of intracellular Ca++ concentrations. Such antagonistic effects of ML-7 and calyculin A on renin secretion most likely resulted from their respective effects on the level of MLC phosphorylation: ML-7 stimulates renin secretion by decreasing phosphorylation of MLC through its inhibition of MLCK, whereas calyculin A inhibits secretion by increasing phosphorylation of MLC through its inhibition of PPase-1. By inference from these results, MLC may be the target protein involved in regulation of the renin secretory process by Ca++: Ca++-calmodulin phosphorylates MLC via activating MLCK and thereby inhibits renin secretion, whereas dephosphorylation of phosphorylated MLC by PPase-1 reverses the inhibited secretion. We therefore conclude that reversible phosphorylation of MLC may be an important biochemical step determining the rate of renin secretion from the juxtaglomerular cell.

D008387 Marine Toxins Toxic or poisonous substances elaborated by marine flora or fauna. They include also specific, characterized poisons or toxins for which there is no more specific heading, like those from poisonous FISHES. Marine Biotoxins,Phycotoxins
D009218 Myosins A diverse superfamily of proteins that function as translocating proteins. They share the common characteristics of being able to bind ACTINS and hydrolyze MgATP. Myosins generally consist of heavy chains which are involved in locomotion, and light chains which are involved in regulation. Within the structure of myosin heavy chain are three domains: the head, the neck and the tail. The head region of the heavy chain contains the actin binding domain and MgATPase domain which provides energy for locomotion. The neck region is involved in binding the light-chains. The tail region provides the anchoring point that maintains the position of the heavy chain. The superfamily of myosins is organized into structural classes based upon the type and arrangement of the subunits they contain.

D009219 Myosin-Light-Chain Kinase An enzyme that phosphorylates myosin light chains in the presence of ATP to yield myosin-light chain phosphate and ADP, and requires calcium and CALMODULIN. The 20-kDa light chain is phosphorylated more rapidly than any other acceptor, but light chains from other myosins and myosin itself can act as acceptors. The enzyme plays a central role in the regulation of smooth muscle contraction.
