The functionality of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) as a Ca(2+) storage organelle is supported by families of Ca(2+) pumps, buffers and channels that regulate Ca(2+) fluxes between the ER lumen and cytosol. Although many studies have identified heterogeneities in Ca(2+) fluxes throughout the ER, the question of how differential functionality of Ca(2+) channels is regulated within proximal regions of the same organelle is unresolved. Here, we studied the in vivo dynamics of an ER subdomain known as annulate lamellae (AL), a cytoplasmic nucleoporin-containing organelle widely used in vitro to study the mechanics of nuclear envelope breakdown. We show that nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) within AL suppress local Ca(2+) signalling activity, an inhibitory influence relieved by heterogeneous dissociation of nucleoporins to yield NPC-denuded ER domains competent at Ca(2+) signalling. Consequently, we propose a novel generalized role for AL - reversible attenuation of resident protein activity - such that regulated AL (dis)assembly via a kinase/phosphatase cycle allows cells to support rapid gain/loss-of-function transitions in cellular physiology.
