Upon illumination several phototransduction proteins translocate between cell body and photosensory compartments. In Drosophila photoreceptors arrestin (Arr2) translocates from cell body to the microvillar rhabdomere down a diffusion gradient created by binding of Arr2 to photo-isomerized metarhodopsin. Translocation is profoundly slowed in mutants of key phototransduction proteins including phospholipase C (PLC) and the Ca2+-permeable transient receptor potential channel (TRP), but how the phototransduction cascade accelerates Arr2 translocation is unknown. Using real-time fluorescent imaging of Arr2-green fluorescent protein translocation in dissociated ommatidia, we show that translocation is profoundly slowed in Ca2+-free solutions. Conversely, in a blind PLC mutant with similar to 100-fold slower translocation, rapid translocation was rescued by the Ca2+ ionophore, ionomycin. In mutants lacking NINAC (calmodulin [CaM] binding myosin III) in the cell body, translocation remained rapid even in Ca2+-free solutions. Immunolabeling revealed that Arr2 in the cell body colocalized with NINAC in the dark. In intact eyes, the impaired translocation found in trp mutants was rescued in ninaC; trp double mutants. Nevertheless, translocation following prolonged dark adaptation was significantly slower in ninaC mutants, than in wild type: a difference that was reflected in the slow decay of the electroretinogram. The results suggest that cytosolic NINAC is a Ca2+-dependent binding target for Arr2, which protects Arr2 from immobilization by a second potential sink that sequesters and releases arrestin on a much slower timescale. We propose that rapid Ca2+/CaM-dependent release of Arr2 from NINAC upon Ca2+ influx accounts for the acceleration of translocation by phototransduction.
