Abstract: | An average target size of 251 kDa has been obtained for the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase of calmodulin-depleted erythrocyte ghosts by radiation inactivation with 16 MeV electrons. This is close to twice the size of the purified calcium-pump polypeptide. When calmodulin was included during the ATPase assay, a component of about 1 MDa appeared in addition to the activated dimer. |
