Figure 1. Figure 1.

Photobiological production of the secosteroid vitamin D.

Figure 2. Figure 2.

Metabolism of vitamin D to the hormonally active secosteroid 1,25(OH)2D3.

Figure 3. Figure 3.

Dose‐response curve of bPTH(1–34) (bovine parathyroid hormone peptide containing the first 34 NH2‐terminal amino acids) action on calcium transport in vascularly perfused duodena of normal chicks. T/B, ratio of treated venous effluent to basal venous effluent.

Figure 4. Figure 4.

Calcium‐binding domains (“EF‐hand”). EF‐hand domains consist of only 30 amino acids, 10 of which are in an α‐helix, 10 of which are in loops surrounding and liganding to the calcium ion, followed by an additional 10 amino acids in a second length of α‐helix. EF‐hand domains are shown with the calcium coordinated by carboxyl atoms from residues 10, 12, 14, 18, and 21 and the peptide oxygen atom from residue 16. Residues 2, 5, 6, 9, 17, 22, 25, 26, and 29 are usually an amino acid residue with a hydrophobic side chain and are presumed to “face” the inside of the molecule.

A: amino acid sequence of calbindin D9K. Data shown are for rat intestinal protein. Also bovine intestinal calbindin D9K has been sequenced 240, as has rat placental calbindin D9K 147.

Figure 6. Figure 6.

A: steroid hormone receptor model of action of 1,25(OH)2D3 for induction of calbindins. B: correlations between 1,25(OH)2D3 nuclear uptake (top panel), receptor occupancy (middle panel), and calbindin D28K mRNA (bottom panel) in chick intestine after 1,25(OH)2D3 administration to vitamin D–deficient chicks. Vitamin D–deficient chicks were dosed intramuscularly with 6.5 nmol of 1,25(OH)2D3, total RNA was isolated, and calcium‐binding protein (CaBP) mRNA was measured by dot blot hybridization to a specific probe. Results are expressed as percent relative to the 12‐h peak. C: time course of the appearance of calbindin D28K in chick intestine after 1,25(OH)2D3 administration to vitamin D–deficient chicks. Vitamin D–deficient chicks were dosed intramuscularly with 6.5 nmol of 1,25(OH)2D3 and calbindin D28K levels were measured by enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).
