The Rem, Rem2, Rad, and Gem/Kir GTPases, comprise a novel subfamily of the small Ras-related GTP-binding proteins known as the RGK GTPases, and have been shown to function as potent negative regulators of high voltage-activated (HVA) Ca2+ channels upon overexpression. HVA Ca2+ channels modulate Ca2+ influx in response to membrane depolarization to regulate a wide variety of cellular functions and they minimally consist of a pore-forming α1 subunit, an intracellular β subunit, and a transmembrane complex α2/δ subunit. While the mechanisms underlying RGK-mediated Ca2+ channel regulation remain poorly defined, it appears that both membrane localization and the binding of accessory Ca2+ channel β subunits (CaVβ) are required for suppression of Ca2+ channel currents. We identified a direct interaction between Rem and the L-type Cavα1 C-terminus (CCT), but not the CCT from CaV3.2 T-type channels. Deletion mapping studies suggest that the conserved CB-IQ domain is required for Rem:CCT association, a region known to contribute to both Ca2+-dependent channel inactivation and facilitation through interactions of Ca2+-bound calmodulin (CaM) with the proximal CCT. Furthermore, both Rem2 and Rad GTPases display similar patterns of CCT binding, suggesting that CCT represents a common binding partner for all RGK proteins. While previous studies have found that association of the Rem C-terminus with the plasma membrane is required for channel inhibition, it is not required for CaVβ- subunit binding. However, Rem:CCT association is well correlated with the plasma membrane localization of Rem and more importantly, Rem-mediated channel inhibition upon overexpression. Moreover, co-expression of the proximal CB-IQ containing region of CCT (residues 1507-1669) in HIT-T15 cells partially relieves Rem blockade of ionic current. Interestingly, Ca2+/CaM disrupts Rem:CCT association in vitro. Moreover, CaM overexpression partially relieves Rem-mediated L-type Ca2+ channel inhibition and Rem overexpression alters the kinetics of calcium-dependent inactivation. Together, these data suggest that the association of Rem with the CCT represents a crucial molecular determinant for Rem-mediated L-type Ca2+ channel regulation and provides new insights into this novel channel regulatory process. These studies also suggest that instead of acting as complete Ca2+ channel blockers, RGK proteins may function as endogenous regulators for the channel inactivation machinery.
