title: Identification of intracellular target proteins of the calcium-signaling protein S100A12.
abstract: In this report, we have focused our attention on identifying intracellular mammalian proteins that bind S100A12 in a Ca2+-dependent manner. Using S100A12 affinity chromatography, we have identified cytosolic NADP+-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH), fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase A (aldolase), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenese (GAPDH), annexin V, S100A9, and S100A12 itself as S100A12-binding proteins. Immunoprecipitation experiments indicated the formation of stable complexes between S100A12 and IDH, aldolase, GAPDH, annexin V and S100A9 in vivo. Surface plasmon resonance analysis showed that the binding to S100A12, of S100A12, S100A9 and annexin V, was strictly Ca2+-dependent, whereas that of GAPDH and IDH was only weakly Ca2+-dependent. To localize the site of S100A12 interaction, we examined the binding of a series of C-terminal truncation mutants to the S100A12-immobilized sensor chip. The results indicated that the S100A12-binding site on S100A12 itself is located at the C-terminus (residues 87-92). However, cross-linking experiments with the truncation mutants indicated that residues 87-92 were not essential for S100A12 dimerization. Thus, the interaction between S100A12 and S100A9 or immobilized S100A12 should not be viewed as a typical S100 homo- or heterodimerization model. Ca2+-dependent affinity chromatography revealed that C-terminal residues 75-92 are not necessary for the interaction of S100A12 with IDH, aldolase, GAPDH and annexin V. To analyze the functional properties of S100A12, we studied its action in protein folding reactions in vitro. The thermal aggregation of IDH or GAPDH was facilitated by S100A12 in the absence of Ca2+, whereas in the presence of Ca2+ the protein suppressed the aggregation of aldolase to less than 50%. These results suggest that S100A12 may have a chaperone/antichaperone-like function which is Ca2+-dependent.
