Colchicine is known to affect secretory, transport, and degradative functions of ameloblasts. The effects of colchicine on membrane-associated calcium and Ca2+,Mg2(+)-ATPase in secretory and maturation ameloblasts were investigated cytochemically. The pyroantimonate (PPA) method was used for localizing calcium and a modified Wachstein-Meisel medium was used to localize Ca2+,Mg2(+)-ATPase. Sections representing secretory and early maturation stages were examined by transmission electron microscopy. Morphological changes induced by colchicine included dislocated organelles and other well-established reactions to such anti-microtubule drugs. Calcium pyroantimonate (Ca-PA) deposits in most ameloblast types were markedly reduced, with the greater reduction occurring in those cells more severely altered morphologically. However, the cell membranes of both control and experimental smooth-ended maturation ameloblasts were essentially devoid of Ca-PA. The normal distribution and intensity of Ca2+,Mg2(+)-ATPase was not affected by colchicine. Because the observed reduction of membrane-associated calcium is apparently not mediated by Ca2+,Mg2(+)-ATPase in this case, other aspects of the calcium regulating system of ameloblasts are apparently targeted by colchicine.  相似文献

The functional confirmation of availability of Ca2+ transport initially-active systems in the embryo cells of loach Misgurnus fossilis L. has been obtained. Using thapsigargin, the specific inhibitor of endoplasmic reticulum of Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase, this enzyme activity was divided into thapsigargin-sensitive (actually endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase) and thapsigargin-insensitive (plasma membrane Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase) constituents. The Ca(2+)-independent Mg(2+)-dependent ATPase activity makes above 39.7% of the common Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase activity of embryo loach. The periodic changes of Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase activity (except for the changes of plasma membrane Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase activity) were found out, which coincide with periodic [Ca2+]i oscillations during the synchronous divisions of loach blastomers embryos.  相似文献

The action of sodium nitroprusside, nitrite-anions and hydrogen peroxide on Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase and Mg(2+)-ATPase (Ca(2+)-independent) enzymatic activity in myometrium sarcolemma fraction is investigated. It is established, that 0.1 mM sodium nitroprusside and 10(-8)-10(-5) M nitrite-anions essentially reduce Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase activity whereas Mg(2+)-ATPase proved to be absolutely resistant to them. At rather high concentration of nitrite-anions (0.1 mM) appreciable stimulation of Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase was observed. Hydrogen peroxide (10(-8)-10(-4)), depending on the concentration suppressed both enzymes activity. However, Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase proved to be more sensitive to the action of H2O2 (seeming K(i) = 0.42 +/- 0.1 microM), than Mg(2+)-ATPase (seeming K(i) = 3.1 +/- 0.9 microM). At presence of 1 mM ditiothreitole (a reducer of SH groups of the membrane surface) action of investigated substances considerably decreased. Reagents on carboxic- (dicyclogexilcarbodiimid) and amino- groups of the membrane (trinitrobenzolsulfonic acid) inhibited both Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase, and Mg(2+)-ATPase activity in membrane fractions. In the presence of noted reagents sodium nitroprusside and nitrite-anions action was not almost shown. Hence, nitrogen oxide, nitrite-anions and hydrogen peroxide suppress Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase and Mg(2+)-ATPase (only hydrogen peroxide) activity in the plasmatic membrane of myometrium cells, and this action can be connected with direct updating of superficial chemical groups of the membrane.  相似文献

The eosin Y inhibitory effect on the activity of smooth muscle plasma membrane Ca(2+)-transporting ATPase was studied: effect of this inhibitor on the maximal initial rate of ATP-hydrolase reaction, catalyzed by Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase, on the affinity of enzyme for the reaction reagents (Ca2+, Mg2+, ATP). Dependence of eosin Y inhibitory effect on some physicochemical factors of incubation medium was studied too. It was determined that eosin Y inhibited reversibly and with high specificity purified Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase solubilized from myometrial cell plasma membrane (Ki--0.8 microM), decreased the turnover rate of this enzyme determined both by Mg2+, ATP and Ca2+. This inhibitor had no effect on the enzyme affinity for Ca2+, increased affinity for Mg2+ and decreased affinity for ATP. It was determined that inhibition of Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase by eosin Y depended on pH and dielectric permeability of the incubation medium: increasing of pH from 6.5 to 8.0 reduced the apparent Ki, decreasing of dielectric permeability from 74.07 to 71.19 increased the apparent Ki.  相似文献

Hyperglycemia leads to excess production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), lipid peroxidation and protein glycation that may impair cellular calcium homeostasis and results in calcium sequestration and dysfunction in diabetic tissues. Stobadine (ST) is a pyridoindole antioxidant has been postulated as a new cardio- and neuroprotectant. This study was undertaken to test the hypothesis that the treatment with ST inhibits calcium accumulation, reduces lipid peroxidation and protein glycation and can change Ca2+,Mg2+-ATPase activity in diabetic animals. The effects of vitamin E treatment were also evaluated and compared with the effects of combined treatment with ST. Diabetes was induced by streptozotocin (STZ, 55 mg/kg i.p.). Some of diabetic rats and their age-matched controls were treated orally with a low dose of ST (24.7 mg/kg/day), vitamin E (400-500 IU/kg/day) or ST plus vitamin E for 10 weeks. ST and vitamin E separately produced, in a similar degree, reduction in diabetes-induced hyperglycemia. Each antioxidant alone significantly lowered the levels of plasma lipid peroxidation, cardiac and hepatic protein glycation in diabetic rats but vitamin E treatment was found to be more effective than ST treatment alone. Diabetes-induced increase in plasma triacylglycerol levels was not significantly altered by vitamin E treatment but markedly reduced by ST alone. The treatment with each antioxidant completely prevented calcium accumulation in diabetic heart and liver. Microsomal Ca2+,Mg2+-ATPase activity significantly decreased in both tissues of untreated diabetic rats. ST alone significantly increased microsomal Ca2+,Mg2+-ATPase activity in the heart of normal rats. However, neither treatment with ST nor vitamin E alone, nor their combination did change cardiac Ca2+,Mg2+-ATPase activity in diabetic heart. In normal rats, neither antioxidant had a significant effect on hepatic Ca2+,Mg2+-ATPase activity. Hepatic Ca2+,Mg2+-ATPase activity of diabetic rats was not changed by single treatment with ST, while vitamin E alone completely prevented diabetes-induced inhibition in microsomal Ca2+,Mg2+-ATPase activity in liver. Combined treatment with ST and vitamin E provided more benefits in the reduction of hyperglycemia and lipid peroxidation in diabetic animals. This study describes potential mechanisms on cellular effects of ST in the presence of diabetes-induced hyperglycemia that may delay or inhibit the development of diabetic complications. The use of ST together with vitamin E can better control hyperglycemia-induced oxidative stress.  相似文献

In order to determine the role of divalent cations in the reaction mechanism of the H+,K+-ATPase, we have substituted calcium for magnesium, which is required by the H+,K+-ATPase for phosphorylation from ATP and from PO4. Calcium was chosen over other divalent cations assayed (barium and manganese) because in the absence of magnesium, calcium activated ATP hydrolysis, generated sufficiently high levels of phosphoenzyme (573 +/- 51 pmol.mg-1) from [gamma-32P]ATP to study dephosphorylation, and inhibited K+-stimulated ATP hydrolysis. The Ca2+-ATPase activity of the H+,K+-ATPase was 40% of the basal Mg2+-ATPase activity. However, the Ca2+,K+-ATPase activity (minus the Ca2+ basal activity) was only 0.7% of the Mg2+,K+-ATPase, indicating that calcium could partially substitute for Mg2+ in activating ATP hydrolysis but not in K+ stimulation of ATP hydrolysis. Approximately 0.1 mM calcium inhibited 50% of the Mg2+-ATPase or Mg2+,K+-ATPase activities. Inhibition of Mg2+,K+-ATPase activity was not competitive with respect to K+. Inhibition by calcium of Mg2+,K+ activity p-nitrophenyl phosphatase activity was competitive with respect to Mg2+ with an apparent Ki of 0.27 mM. Proton transport measured by acridine orange uptake was not detected in the presence of Ca2+ and K+. In the presence of Mg2+ and K+, Ca2+ inhibited proton transport with an apparent affinity similar to the inhibition of the Mg2+, K+-ATPase activity. The site of calcium inhibition was on the exterior of the vesicle. These results suggest that calcium activates basal turnover and inhibits K+ stimulation of the H+,K+-ATPase by binding at a cytosolic divalent cation site. The pseudo-first order rate constant for phosphoenzyme formation from 5 microM [gamma-32P]ATP was at least 22 times slower in the presence of calcium (0.015 s-1) than magnesium (greater than 0.310 s-1). The Ca.EP (phosphoenzyme formed in the presence of Ca2+) formed dephosphorylated four to five times more slowly that the Mg.EP (phosphoenzyme formed in the presence of Mg2+) in the presence of 8 mm trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid (CDTA) or 250 microM ATP. Approximately 10% of the Ca.EP formed was sensitive to a 100 mM KCl chase compared with greater than 85% of the Mg.EP. By comparing the transient kinetics of the phosphoenzyme formed in the presence of magnesium (Mg.EP) and calcium (Ca.EP), we found two actions of divalent cations on dephosphorylation.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)  相似文献

Fluoroaluminate, known modulator of G-proteins, inhibits ATP-hydrolase activity of purified solubilized Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase from myometrium cell plasma membranes and Ca(2+)-transporting activity of this enzyme reconstituted into azolectin liposomes: 10 mM NaF plus 10 microM AlCl3 inhibited the primary activity by 95% and--by 81%. Inhibition of purified both solubilized and reconstituted Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPases by fluoroaluminate evidences for the possibility of direct interaction AlF4- with this enzyme without involvement of G-protein. The sensitivity to fluoroaluminate of sarcolemmal Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase from myometrium is similar to that of Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase from stomach smooth muscle.  相似文献

Purified myometrium cells plasma membrane Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase was reconstitute in liposomes in functionally active state by the method of cholate dialysis: it showed ATP-hydrolase activity increased by 0.8 microM A23187 average 4 times and it showed Mg2+, ATP-dependent Ca(2+)-transporting activity. Reconstituted system transported Ca2+ at an initial rate of 114.4 +/- 16.3 nmol.min-1.mg-1 with the stoichiometry Ca2+: ATP = 1: (3.2-3.7). Calmodulin increased by 30% the initial rate of Ca(2+)-accumulation by the proteoliposomes with reconstituted Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase; 0.1 mM orthovanadate decreased by 80% Ca(2+)-accumulation by this system. Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase reconstituted in liposomes is just Ca(2+)-transporting ATPase of the plasma membrane. Obtained enzyme preparate can be utilised for study of the properties of this important energy-dependent Ca(2+)-transporting system of smooth muscle cell.  相似文献

Electrophorus electroplax microsomes were examined for Ca2+- and Mg2+-dependent ATPase activity. In addition to the previously reported low-affinity ATPase, a high-affinity (Ca2+,Mg2+)-ATPase was found. At low ATP and Mg2+ concentrations (200 microM or less), the high-affinity (Ca2+,Mg2+)-ATPase exhibits an activity of 18 nmol Pi mg-1 min-1 with 0.58 microM Ca2+. At higher ATP concentrations (3 mM), the low-affinity Ca2+-ATPase predominates, with an activity of 28 nmol Pi mg-1 min-1 with 1 mM Ca2+. In addition, Mg2+ can also activate the low-affinity ATPase (18 nmol Pi mg-1 min-1). The high-affinity ATPase hydrolyzes ATP at a greater rate than it does GTP, ITP, or UTP and is insensitive to ouabain, oligomycin, or dicyclohexylcarbodiimide inhibition. The high-affinity enzyme is inhibited by vanadate, trifluoperazine, and N-ethylmaleimide. Added calmodulin does not significantly stimulate enzyme activity; rinsing the microsomes with EGTA does not confer calmodulin sensitivity. Thus the high-affinity ATPase from electroplax microsomes is similar to the (Ca2+,Mg2+)-ATPase reported to be associated with Ca2+ transport, based on its affinity for calcium and its response to inhibitors. The low-affinity enzyme hydrolyzes all tested nucleoside triphosphates, as well as diphosphates, but not AMP. Vanadate and N-ethylmaleimide do not inhibit the low-affinity enzymes. The low-affinity enzyme reflects a nonspecific nucleoside triphosphatase, probably an ectoenzyme.  相似文献

It is shown, that for correct definition of "basal" Ca(2+)-independent Mg(2+)-dependent ATPase ac-activity (10-13 mmol Pi/hour on 1 mg of protein) in a fraction of uterus smooth muscle cell plasma membranes is necessary to use in medium without calcium of an incubation not only EGTA and digitonin--of the factor of infringement in activity by this subcellular structure, but inhibitors of others Mg(2+)-dependent ATP-hydrolyse enzymatic systems localized as in plasma membrane (Na+, K(+)-ATPase) and in others subcellular frames, first of all, in mitochondria (Mg(2+)-ATPase) and endoplasmic reticulum (transport Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase). In the case of a sacolemal fraction of a smooth muscle the contribution of others Mg(2+)-dependent ATP-hydrolyse systems in a common enzymatic hydrolysis ATP, which unconnected to functioning "basal" Ca(2+)-independent Mg(2+)-dependent ATPase, is very appreciable and achieves 35%. The researches, carried out in the frameworks of definition of initial velocity of enzymatic reaction, have enabled to define its some properties--cationic and anionic specificity, and also sensitivity to action of some inhibitors. It has appeared, that the "basal" Ca(2+)-independent Mg(2+)-dependent ATP-hydrolyse reaction is nonspecific rather both in relation to cations of divalent metals Me2+, and cations of monovalent metals and anions, which were utilized for support of ionic strength. The cations La--antagonist of cations Ca--practically did not influence enzymatic activity. The non-specific inhibitors transport of ATPases--p-chloromercuribenzoate, o-vanadate and eosine Y with a various degree of efficiency inhibited "basal" Ca(2+)-independent Mg(2+)-dependent ATP-hydrolyse reaction. On the basis of the analysis of the own and literary data the conclusion is made that "basal" Ca(2+)-independent Mg(2+)-dependent ATPase of a smooth muscle cell plasma membrane is considerably less sensitive to action of nonspecific inhibitors of the Ca(2+)-transporting systems, than these systems.  相似文献

A reconstitution procedure for a cardiac sarcolemmal enriched fraction is described. In the reconstituted cardiac sarcolemmal inside-out vesicles, a difference in calcium transport and (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity was found depending on the side of the membrane at which sodium and potassium were placed. Having inhibited the (Na+ + K+)- ATPase activity with ouabain, the active transport of calcium was increased when potassium was located outside and sodium inside the reconstituted vesicles. Nevertheless, this activity was maximal having potassium present on both sides. During calcium transport it was also shown that 86Rb moves opposite to calcium. When the experiment was carried out having 22Na located at the inside, there was no movement of this cation despite the low calcium transport observed. The present study supports the possibility of potassium having a stimulatory effect upon the sarcolemmal (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity and suggests the existence of a Ca2+, K+ co-transport carried out by this enzyme.  相似文献

Inhibition of red cell Ca2+-ATPase by vanadate   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
1. The Mg2+- plus Ca2+-dependent ATPase (Ca2+-ATPase) in human red cell membranes is susceptible to inhibition by low concentrations of vanadate. 2. Several natural activators of Ca2+-ATPase (Mg2+, K+, Na+ and calmodulin) modify inhibition by increasing the apparent affinity of the enzyme for vanadate. 3. Among the ligands tests, K+, in combination with Mg2+, had the most pronounced effect on inhibition by vanadate. 4. Under conditions optimal for inhibition of Ca2+-ATPase, the K 1/2 for vanadate was 1.5 microM and inhibition was nearly complete at saturating vanadate concentrations. 5. There are similarities between the kinetics of inhibition of red cell Ca2+-ATPase and (Na+ + K+)-ATPase prepared from a variety of sources; however, (Na+ + K+)-ATPase is approx. 3 times more sensitive to inhibition by vanadate.  相似文献

With the aim to elucidate mechanism of eosin Y inhibitory effect on the Ca(2+)-transporting ATPase activity of myometrial cell plasma membrane effect of this inhibitor on the maximal initial rate of ATP hydrolysis reaction, catalyzed by Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase, and on the enzyme affinity for Ca2+ was studied. It was established that eosin Y decreased the rate of Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase catalitic turnover determined by Ca2+ and had no effect on enzyme affinity for this cation.  相似文献

A (Ca2+, Mg2+)-ATPase activity and a (Ca2+, Mg2+)-dependent phosphorylation from ATP have been found in plasma membrane fragments from squid optical nerves under conditions where contamination by intracellular organelles is unlikely. The properties of this (Ca2+, Mg2+)-ATPase activity are almost identical to those of the ATP-dependent uncoupled Ca2+ efflux observed in dialyzed squid giant axons. This gives further support to the notion that the mechanism responsible for maintaining the low levels of ionized Ca concentration in nerves at rest is not a Na+-Ca2+ exchange system but an ATP-driven uncoupled Ca2+ pump.  相似文献

The effects of K+ and Na+ on the Ca2+,Mg2+-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum fragments (SRF) were investigated at 1 mM ATP. There was an alteration of the sensitivity of the ATPase to the monovalent cations during storage of the SRF preparation. The Ca2+, Mg2+-ATPase of freshly prepared SRF was slightly activated by 5-10 mM K+ and Na+. Mg2+-ATPase was inhibited by both the monovalent cations to the same extent, and this response to the ions was independent of the freshness of the preparations. After storage of SRF, however, the Ca2+,Mg2+-ATPase was markedly activated by higher concentrations of K+ and Na+ (0.2-0.3 M). K+ and Na+ reduced the Ca uptake at the steady state in freshly prepared SRF, but did not affect pre-steady state uptake. In the presence of oxalate, the rate of Ca accumulation both in fresh and stored preparations was activated by 0.1-0.2 M K+ and Na+. The Ca2+, mg2+-ATPase with oxalate, so-called "extra ATPase," showed the same response to the ions as did the activity without oxalate during storage.  相似文献

A study was made of a change in Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase activity induced by the effect of ionizing radiation (5-10(4) Gy) on a thymocyte plasma membrane suspension. The Michaelis' constant and maximum rate of enzymic reactions were determined. With a dose of 10(3) Gy the structural changes in Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase were shown to reduce the affinity of the substrate to an active enzyme center and to decrease the rate of the enzyme/substrate complex degradation.  相似文献

The Ca2+,Mg(2+)-ATPase of skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) is irreversibly inactivated by a freeze-thaw (FT) cycle. The membrane does not become more permeable to calcium after a FT cycle, suggesting that the reduced uptake is due to damage to the Ca2+,Mg(2+)-ATPase. Several amino acids, in addition to standard cryoprotectants provide good protection of calcium uptake against FT damage. The amount of protection given by the amino acids is generally inversely proportional to a measure of hydrophobicity, the mean fractional area loss upon incorporation in globular proteins of the amino acid side chain. Unlike the case for cells, glutamine and dimethyl sulfoxide do not act independently as cryoprotectants for SR calcium ATPase. When the protein is exposed to multiple FT cycles, the amount of inactivation is exponentially proportional to the number of FT cycles. This is true for both protected and unprotected samples. Some SR vesicles fuse during FT. Fusion of vesicles cannot account for the observed inactivation of the enzyme. Fluorescence studies, using intrinsic tryptophan and extrinsic FITC and NCD-4, suggest that FT does not damage the transmembrane region of the Ca2+,Mg(2+)-ATPase or the calcium binding sites, but only the mechanism coupling ATPase activity to calcium translocation. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) studies suggest that this region comprises less than 15% of the whole enzyme.  相似文献

The ATP production of human erythrocytes in the steady state (approximately 2 mmoles . 1 cells-1 . h-1, 37 degrees C, pHi 7.2) is maintained by glycolysis and the ATP consumption is essentially limited to the cell membrane. About 25% of the ATP consumption is used for ion transport ATPases. The bulk of the ATP consuming processes in intact erythrocytes remains poorly understood. "Isotonic" erythrocyte membranes prepared under approximate intracellular conditions after freeze-thaw hemolysis have high (Ca2+, Mg2+)-ATPase activities (80% of the total membrane ATPase activity). There is a great discrepancy between the high capacity of the (Ca2+, Mg2+)-ATPase in isotonic membranes and the actual activity in the intact cell. The (Ca2+, Mg2+)-ATPase of isotonic membranes has a "high" Ca2+-affinity (Ka less than 0.5 microM) and a "low" Mg-ATP affinity (Km approximately 760 microM). This state of (Ca2+, Mg2+)-ATPase is caused by the association of calmodulin and 30000 Dalton polypeptides (ATP affinity modulator protein). Hypotonic washings of isotonic membranes result in a loss of the 30 kD polypeptides. EGTA (0.5 mM) extracts derived from isotonic membranes contain the 30 kD modulator protein and restore the properties of the (Ca2+, Mg2+)-ATPase of hypotonic membrane preparations to the isotonic characteristics. The Mg-ATP affinity modulator protein is assumed to form a complex with calmodulin and (Ca2+, Mg2+)-ATPase.  相似文献

The microsomal (H+,K+)-ATPase systems from dog and pig fundic mucosa were purified to homogeneity and partially characterized. The method involves sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) (0.033% w/v) extraction of the microsomal non-ATPase proteins under appropriate conditions followed by sucrose density gradient centrifugation. Two distinct membrane bands of low (buoyant density = 1.08 g/mL) and high (buoyant density = 1.114 g/mL) densities having distinct enzymatic and chemical composition were harvested. The low-density membrane was highly enriched in Mg2+- or Ca2+-stimulated ATPase and 5'-nucleotidase activities but totally devoid of (H+,K+)-ATPase and K+-p-nitrophenylphosphatase activities. The latter two activities were found exclusively in the high-density membrane. SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed the high-density membranes to consist primarily of a major 100-kilodalton (kDa) protein and a minor 85-kDa glycoprotein, the former being the catalytic subunit of the (H+,K+)-ATPase. The amino acid composition of the pure dog (H+,K+)-ATPase revealed close similarities with that from pig. The N-terminal amino acid was identified to be lysine as the sole residue. Similar to the high-density membrane-associated pure (H+,K+)-ATPase, the low-density membranes containing high Mg2+-ATPase activity also contained a 100-kDa peptide and a 85-kDa glycopeptide in addition to numerous low molecular weight peptides. Also, similar to the pure (H+,K+)-ATPase, the Mg2+-ATPase-rich fraction produced an E approximately P unstable to hydroxylamine and partially (about 25%) sensitive to K+ but having a slow turnover. The levels of E approximately P produced by the pure (H+,K+)-ATPase- and Mg2+-ATPase-rich fractions were 1400 and 178 pmol/mg of protein, respectively.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

The effects of cardiotoxin on the ATPase activity and Ca2+-transport of guinea pig erythrocyte and rabbit muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase (E.C.3.6.1.3) were investigated. Erythrocyte (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase was inhibited by cardiotoxin in a time- and dose-dependent fashion and inhibition appears to be irreversible. Micromolar calcium prevented this inhibitory effect. Specificity for (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase inhibition by cardiotoxin was indicated since a homologous neurotoxin had no effect. Cardiotoxin did not affect (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity from sarcoplasmic reticulum, but Ca2+-transport was 50% inhibited. This inhibition was not due to an increased Ca2+-efflux and could be the result of an intramolecular uncoupling of ATPase activity from Ca2+-transport. Inhibition of Ca2+-transport by cardiotoxin could not be prevented by millimolar concentrations of Ca2+. It is suggested that the biological effects of cardiotoxin could be a consequence of inhibition of plasma membrane (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPases.  相似文献
