タイトル Presynaptic CaV2 calcium channel traffic requires CALF-1 and the alpha(2)delta subunit UNC-36.
ジャーナル Nat Neurosci
Abstract Presynaptic voltage-gated calcium channels provide calcium for synaptic vesicle exocytosis. We show here that a green fluorescent protein-tagged alpha(1) subunit of the Caenorhabditis elegans CaV2 channel, UNC-2, is localized to presynaptic active zones of sensory and motor neurons. Synaptic localization of CaV2 requires the alpha(2)delta subunit UNC-36 and CALF-1 (Calcium Channel Localization Factor-1), a neuronal transmembrane protein that localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum. In calf-1 mutants, UNC-2 is retained in the endoplasmic reticulum, but other active-zone components and synaptic vesicles are delivered to synapses. Acute induction of calf-1 mobilizes preexisting UNC-2 for delivery to synapses, consistent with a direct trafficking role. The alpha(2)delta subunit UNC-36 is likewise required for exit of UNC-2 from endoplasmic reticulum but has additional functions. Genetic and cell biological interactions suggest that CALF-1 couples intracellular traffic to functional maturation of CaV2 presynaptic calcium channels.
