Regulation of Ca2+ transport determines the duration of
a Ca2+ signal, and hence, the nature of the biological
response. Ca2+/H+ antiporters such as CAX1
(cation exchanger 1), play a key role in determining cytosolic
Ca2+ levels. Analysis of a full-length CAX1 clone suggested
that the CAX1 open reading frame contains an additional 36 amino acids at the N terminus that were not found in the original clone identified by suppression of yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae)
vacuolar Ca2+ transport mutants. The long CAX1 (lCAX1)
could not suppress the yeast Ca2+ transport defects despite
localization to the yeast vacuole. Calmodulin could not stimulate lCAX1
Ca2+/H+ transport in yeast; however, minor
alterations in the 36-amino acid region restored
Ca2+/H+ transport. Sequence analysis suggests
that a 36-amino acid N-terminal regulatory domain may be present in all
Arabidopsis CAX-like genes. Together, these results suggest a
structural feature involved in regulation of
Ca2+/H+ antiport.
