The association of calmodulin with brain synaptic vesicle proteins was analyzed. Scatchard analysis of [125I]calmodulin binding to brain synaptic vesicles revealed one high-affinity, low-binding-capacity, Kd = 1.0 (+/- 0.15) nM, Bmax = 4.1 (+/- 0.6) pmol/mg, and one low-affinity high-binding-capacity site, Kd = 177. (+/- 12.0) nM and Bmax = 202 (+/- 15.0) pmol/mg. Triton X-100 solubilization of synaptic vesicle proteins and subsequent elution on a Sepharose-4B-CNBr-calmodulin affinity column demonstrated that two protein doublets of approximate MrS 55 K and 30 K were the major synaptic vesicle calmodulin binding proteins. In addition there were two minor calmodulin binding singlet polypeptides with MrS 62 K and 40 K. Calmodulin stimulated endogenous synaptic vesicle protein kinase, Ca2+, Mg2+-ATPase and Ca2+ uptake activities. Phosphorylation assays coupled with immunological studies using affinity-purified antibodies suggested that the synaptic vesicle Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase migrated in the 30 K Mr region.
