The cellular functions of several S100 proteins involve specific interactions with phospholipids and the cell membrane. The interactions between calbindin D-9k (S100D) and the detergent dodecyl phosphocholine (DPC) were studied using NMR spectroscopy. In the absence of Call, the protein associates with DPC micelles. The micelle-associated state has intact helical secondary structures but no apparent tertiary fold. At neutral pH, Ca2+-loaded calbindin D-9k does not associate with DPC micelles. However, a specific interaction is observed with individual DPC molecules at a site close to the linker between the two EF-hands. Binding to this site occurs only when Call is bound to the protein. A reduction in pH in the absence of Ca2+ increases the stability of the micelle-associated state. This along with the corresponding reduction in Call affinity causes a transition to the micelle-associated state also in the presence of Ca2+ when the pH is lowered. Site-specific analysis of the data indicates that calbindin D-9k has a core of three tightly packed helices (A, B, and D), with a dynamic fourth helix (C) more loosely associated. Evidence is presented that the Ca2+-binding characteristics of the two EF-hands are distinctly different in a micelle environment. The role of calbindin D9k in the cell is discussed, along with the broader implications for the function of the S100 protein family.
