Abstract
It is well known that inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate binding and release of calcium are mediated by the same protein. Several reports have indicated the location of the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor in organelles other than endoplasmic reticulum. Immunocytochemical studies on the subcellular localization of 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor in the Purkinje cells from two laboratories have given contradictory results regarding the nuclear location of this receptor. In this paper, a high-affinity inositol 1,4,5-[32P]trisphosphate binding site (Kd = 0.11 nM) on nuclei isolated from rat liver and devoid of any microsomal, mitochondrial, or plasma membrane constituents is documented. Furthermore, we present data demonstrating that inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate is capable of releasing 45Ca2+ from the intact isolated liver nuclei. A rapid and transient release of calcium that was taken up by nuclei in the presence of ATP is observed. The role of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate in the coupling between cytoplasmic second messengers and nuclear events activated during signal transduction is postulated.This publication has 31 references indexed in Scilit:
