Supplementary information

The Calcium Pump PMCA2 ATPase also known as PMCA2 or Ca-ATPase pump plays an important role in the active transport of calcium ions from the cytoplasm across the plasma membrane. It functions by hydrolyzing ATP to provide the energy needed for this process. PMCA2 belongs to the family of P-type ATPases and has a molecular mass of approximately 135 kDa. This pump is prominently expressed in the brain and inner ear particularly in the cerebellum and cochlea highlighting its importance in neuronal and auditory functions.
Biological function summary

PMCA2 regulates intracellular calcium concentration which is critical for cellular signaling and homeostasis. It does not form part of a larger complex but works independently to balance calcium levels. In neuronal cells efficient calcium clearance is necessary for synaptic activity and PMCA2 helps in maintaining the rapid calcium ion flux during neuronal firing. The presence of PMCA2 in auditory hair cells signifies its role in cochlear function and hearing sensitivity by aiding the processing of sound signals through calcium modulation.

Pathways

PMCA2 integrates into calcium signaling pathways and interacts with calmodulin which enhances its activity. Its function in the calmodulin-calcium signaling pathway is essential for processes such as neurotransmitter release and muscle contraction. In association with proteins like calmodulin PMCA2 ensures precise calcium dynamics safeguarding against cytotoxicity triggered by excessive calcium accumulation. The coordination with calmodulin formulates a pivotal connection within various signaling cascades.

PMCA2 mutations or dysfunctions have associations with neurological disorders and hearing impairments. Research links PMCA2 dysregulation to conditions such as spinocerebellar ataxia and hereditary hearing loss. In these scenarios PMCA2 interacts with molecular components that when impaired disrupt the normal calcium homeostasis. Such interruptions can lead to neurodegeneration or compromised auditory function underlining the significance of PMCA2 in maintaining health and preventing disease.

Target data

ATP-driven Ca(2+) ion pump involved in the maintenance of basal intracellular Ca(2+) levels in specialized cells of cerebellar circuit and vestibular and cochlear systems (PubMed : 17234811, PubMed : 9668038). Uses ATP as an energy source to transport cytosolic Ca(2+) ions across the plasma membrane to the extracellular compartment. Has fast activation and Ca(2+) clearance rate suited to control fast neuronal Ca(2+) dynamics (PubMed : 17409239, PubMed : 20083513). At parallel fiber to Purkinje neuron synapse, mediates presynaptic Ca(2+) efflux in response to climbing fiber-induced Ca(2+) rise. Provides for fast return of Ca(2+) concentrations back to their resting levels, ultimately contributing to long-term depression induction and motor learning (PubMed : 17409239, PubMed : 20083513). Plays an essential role in hearing and balance. In cochlear hair cells, shuttles Ca(2+) ions from stereocilia to the endolymph and dissipates Ca(2+) transients generated by the opening of the mechanoelectrical transduction channels. Regulates Ca(2+) levels in the vestibular system, where it contributes to the formation of otoconia (By similarity) (PubMed : 9668038). Regulates Ca(2+) signaling through dissipation of Ca(2+) transients generated by store-operated channels (By similarity). In lactating mammary gland, allows for the high content of Ca(2+) ions in the milk (PubMed : 15302868).
