Ca2+ and human cardiac troponin I (cTnI) peptide binding to human cardiac troponin C (cTnC) have been investigated with the use of 2D {H-1, N-15} HSQC NMR spectroscopy. The spectral intensity, chemical shift, and line-shape changes were analyzed to obtain the dissociation (K-D) and off-rate (k(off)) constants at 30 degreesC. The results show that sites III and IV exhibit 100-fold higher Ca2+ affinity than site II (K(D(III,IV))approximate to0.2 muM, K(D(II))approximate to20 muM), but site II is partially occupied before sites III and IV are saturated. The addition of the first two equivalents of Ca2+ saturates 90% of sites III and IV and 20% of site II. This suggests that the Ca2+ occupancy of all three sites may contribute to the Ca2+-dependent regulation in muscle contraction. We have determined a k(off) of 5000 s(-1) for site II Ca2+ dissociation at 30 degreesC. Such a rapid off-rate had not been previously measured. Three cTnI peptides, cTnI(34-71), cTnI(128-147), and cTnI(147-163), were titrated to Ca2+-saturated cTnC. In each case, the binding occurs with a 1:1 stoichiometry. The determined K-D and k(off) values are 1 muM and 5 s(-1) for cTnI(34-71), 78 +/- 10 muM and 5000 s(-1) for cTnI(128-147), and 150 +/- 10 muM and 5000 s(-1) for cTnI(147-163), respectively. Thus, the dissociation of Ca2+ from site II and cTnI128-147 and cTnI(147-163) from cTnC are rapid enough to be involved in the contraction/relaxation cycle of cardiac muscle, while that of cTnI(34-71) from cTnC may be too slow for this process.
