heal.abstractTitin and alpha-actinin, two modular muscle proteins, are with actin the major components of the Z-band in vertebrate striated muscles where they serve to organize the antiparallel actin filament arrays in adjacent sarcomeres and to transmit tension between sarcomeres during activation. Interactions between titin and alpha-actinin have been mainly localized in a 45-amino acid multiple motif (Z-repeat) in the N-terminal region of titin and the C-terminal region of alpha-actinin. In this study, we provide the first quantitative characterization of alpha-actinin-Z-repeat recognition and dissect the interaction to its minimal units. Different complementary techniques, such as circular dichroism, calorimetry, and nuclear magnetic spectroscopy, were used. Two overlapping alpha-actinin constructs (Act-EF34 and Act-EF1234) containing two and four EF-hand motifs, respectively, were produced, and their folding properties were examined. Complex formation of Act-EF34 and Act-EF1234 with single- and double-Z-repeat constructs was studied. Act-EF34 was shown quantitatively to be necessary and sufficient for binding to Z-repeats, excluding the presence of additional high-affinity binding sites in the remaining part of the domain. The binding affinities of the different Z-repeats for Act-EF34 range from micromolar to millimolar values. The strongest of these interactions are comparable to those observed in troponin C-troponin I complexes. The binding affinities for Act-EF34 are maximal for Zr1 and Zr7, the two highly homologous sequences present in all muscle isoforms. No cooperative or additional contributions to the interaction were observed for Z-repeat double constructs. These findings have direct relevance for evaluating current models of Z-disk assembly.en
