项目摘要

Voltage-gated N-type calcium channels (Cav2.2) trigger a variety of process in the CNS including function, formation and plasticity of synapses, activity-dependent gene expression and regulation of excitability and propagation of electrical signaling. Using comprehensive and quantitative proteomics on the molecular nano-environment of these channels we have identified the framework for their marked diversity in function: Cav2.2 channels are integrated into extended protein networks that may be assembled from a pool of ~160 proteins (at distinct abundance and stability of association) and reflect the cellular processes that can be fueled by Cav2.2 channels. The next funding period aims at the understanding (i) of the molecular structure and organization of the Cav2.2 channel networks, (ii) their local specificity and dynamics of assembly (do networks depend on the types of synapse/brain regions, on cellular boundaries such as neuronal activity and/or the presence of 'hub proteins'?), as well as on (iii) protein-protein interactions decisive for the operation of Cav2.2 nano-environments. For these goals we will apply a multidisciplinary approach comprising interactive application of an array of techniques including high-resolution quantitative mass spectrometry, biochemistry, standard molecular biology, immunocytochemistry and immunoelectron microscopy and electrophysiology.

电压门控性N型钙通道（Cav2.2）在中枢神经系统中触发多种过程，包括突触的功能、形成和可塑性、活性依赖性基因表达以及兴奋性和电信号传播的调节。使用这些通道的分子纳米环境的全面和定量蛋白质组学，我们已经确定了其功能显著多样性的框架：Cav2.2通道被整合到扩展的蛋白质网络中，该网络可以从约160种蛋白质（以不同的丰度和缔合稳定性）的池中组装，并反映可以由Cav2.2通道提供动力的细胞过程。下一个资助期旨在理解（i）Cav2.2通道网络的分子结构和组织，（ii）它们的局部特异性和组装动力学（网络是否取决于突触/大脑区域的类型，细胞边界，如神经元活动和/或“枢纽蛋白”的存在？），以及（iii）决定Cav2.2纳米环境操作的蛋白质-蛋白质相互作用。为了实现这些目标，我们将采用多学科的方法，包括交互式应用一系列技术，包括高分辨率定量质谱，生物化学，标准分子生物学，免疫细胞化学和免疫电子显微镜和电生理学。
