The sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase transports Ca(2+) using the chemical energy derived from ATP hydrolysis. Part of the chemical energy is used to translocate Ca(2+) through the membrane (work) and part is dissipated as heat. The amount of heat produced during catalysis increases after formation of the Ca(2+) gradient across the vesicle membrane. In the absence of gradient (leaky vesicles) the amount of heat produced/mol of ATP cleaved is half of that measured in the presence of the gradient. After formation of the gradient, part of the ATPase activity is not coupled to Ca(2+) transport. We now show that NaF can impair the uncoupled ATPase activity with discrete effect on the ATPase activity coupled to Ca(2+) transport. For the control vesicles not treated with NaF, after formation of the gradient only 20% of the ATP cleaved is coupled to Ca(2+) transport, and the caloric yield of the total ATPase activity (coupled plus uncoupled) is 22.8 kcal released/mol of ATP cleaved. In contrast, the vesicles treated with NaF consume only the ATP needed to maintain the gradient, and the caloric yield of ATP hydrolysis is 3.1 kcal/mol of ATP. The slow ATPase activity measured in vesicles treated with NaF has the same Ca(2+) dependence as the control vesicles. This demonstrates unambiguously that the uncoupled activity is an actual pathway of the Ca(2+)-ATPase rather than a contaminating phosphatase. We conclude that when ATP hydrolysis occurs without coupled biological work most of the chemical energy is dissipated as heat. Thus, uncoupled ATPase activity appears to be the mechanistic feature underlying the ability of the Ca(2+)-ATPase to modulated heat production. 相似文献

Sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles of rabbit skeletal muscle accumulate Ca2+ at the expense of ATP hydrolysis. The heat released during the hydrolysis of each ATP molecule varies depending on whether or not a Ca2+ gradient is formed across the vesicle membrane. After Ca2+ accumulation, a part of the Ca2+-ATPase activity is not coupled with Ca2+ transport (Yu, X., and Inesi, G. (1995) J. Biol. Chem. 270, 4361-4367). I now show that both the heat produced during substrate hydrolysis and the uncoupled ATPase activity vary depending on the ADP/ATP ratio in the medium. With a low ratio, the Ca2+ transport is exothermic, and the formation of the gradient increases the amount of heat produced during the hydrolysis of each ATP molecule cleaved. With a high ADP/ATP ratio, the Ca2+ transport is endothermic, and formation of a gradient increased the amount of heat absorbed from the medium. Heat is absorbed from the medium when the Ca2+ efflux is coupled with the synthesis of ATP (5.7 kcal/mol of ATP). When there is no ATP synthesis, the Ca2+ efflux is exothermic (14-16 kcal/Ca2+ mol). It is concluded that in the presence of a low ADP concentration the uncoupled ATPase activity is the dominant route of heat production. With a high ADP/ATP ratio, the uncoupled ATPase activity is abolished, and the Ca2+ transport is endothermic. The possible correlation of these findings with thermogenesis and anoxia is discussed. 相似文献

The sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase transports Ca(2+) using the energy derived from ATP hydrolysis. During catalysis, part of the energy is used to translocate Ca(2+) across the membrane, and part is dissipated as heat. At 35 degrees C the heat released during the hydrolysis of each ATP molecule varies depending on the formation of a Ca(2+) gradient across the membrane. With leaky vesicles (no gradient) the heat released varies between 9 and 12 kcal/mol of ATP cleaved, and with intact vesicles (gradient), the heat released increases to 20-24 kcal/mol of ATP. After Ca(2+) accumulation, 82% of the Ca(2+)-ATPase activity is not coupled to Ca(2+) transport, and the ratio between Ca(2+) transported and ATP cleaved is 0.3. The addition of 20% dimethyl sulfoxide (v/v) to the medium or decreasing the temperature from 35 to 20 degrees C abolishes the difference of heat produced during ATP hydrolysis in the presence and absence of a gradient. This is accompanied by a simultaneous inhibition of the uncoupled ATPase activity and an increase of the Ca(2+)/ATP ratio from 0.3 to 1.3-1.4. It is concluded that the uncoupled Ca(2+)-ATPase is responsible for both the low Ca(2+)/ATP ratio measured during transport and the difference of heat produced during ATP hydrolysis in the presence and absence of a gradient. 相似文献

Different sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPases isoforms are found in blood platelets and in skeletal muscle. The amount of heat produced during ATP hydrolysis by vesicles derived from the endoplasmic reticulum of blood platelets was the same in the absence and presence of a transmembrane Ca(2+) gradient. Addition of platelets activating factor (PAF) to the medium promoted both a Ca(2+) efflux that was arrested by thapsigargin and an increase of the yield of heat produced during ATP hydrolysis. The calorimetric enthalpy of ATP hydrolysis (DeltaH(cal)) measured during Ca(2+) transport varied between -10 and -12 kcal/mol without PAF and between -20 and -24 kcal/mol with 4 microM PAF. Different from platelets, in skeletal muscle vesicles a thapsigargin-sensitive Ca(2+) efflux and a high heat production during ATP hydrolysis were measured without PAF and the DeltaH(cal) varied between -10 and -12 kcal/mol in the absence of Ca(2+) and between -22 up to -32 kcal/mol after formation of a transmembrane Ca(2+) gradient. PAF did not enhance the rate of thapsigargin-sensitive Ca(2+) efflux nor increase the yield of heat produced during ATP hydrolysis. These findings indicate that the platelets of Ca(2+)-ATPase isoforms are only able to convert osmotic energy into heat in the presence of PAF. 相似文献

In this report a sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) was identified in rats brown adipose tissue. Electrophoretic analysis of brown fat microssomal protein yields a 110-kDa band that is reactive to SERCA 1 antibody but is not reactive to SERCA 2 antibodies. Nevertheless, the kinetics properties of the brown fat SERCA differ from the skeletal muscle SERCA 1 inasmuch they manifest a different Ca2+ affinity and a much higher degree of ATPase/Ca2+ uncoupling. A SERCA enzyme is not found in white fat. Fatty acids promoted Ca2+ leakage from brown fat vesicles. The heat released during ATP hydrolysis was -24.7 kcal/mol when a Ca2+ gradient was formed across the vesicles membrane and -14.4 kcal/mol in the absence of a gradient. The data reported suggest that in addition to storing Ca2+ inside the endoplasmic reticulum, the Ca2+-ATPase may represent a source of heat production contributing to the thermogenic function of brown adipose tissue. 相似文献

The sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase is able to cleave ATP through two different catalytic routes. In one of them, a part of the chemical energy derived from ATP hydrolysis is used to transport Ca2+ across the membrane and part is dissipated as heat. In the second route, the hydrolysis of ATP is completed before Ca2+ transport and all the energy derived from ATP hydrolysis is converted into heat. The second route is activated by the rise of the Ca2+ concentration in the vesicle lumen. In vesicles derived from white skeletal muscle the rate of the uncoupled ATPase is several-fold faster than the rate of the ATPase coupled to Ca2+ transport, and this accounts for both the low Ca2+/ATP ratio usually measured during transport and for the difference of heat produced during the hydrolysis of ATP by intact and leaky vesicles. Different drugs were found to selectively inhibit the uncoupled ATPase activity without modifying the activity coupled to Ca2+ transport. When the vesicles are actively loaded, part of the Ca2+ accumulated leaks to the medium through the ATPase. Heat is either produced or released during the leakage, depending on whether or not the Ca2+ efflux is coupled to the synthesis of ATP from ADP and Pi. 相似文献

Skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum of large mammals such as rabbit contains sarcolipin (SLN), a small peptide with a single transmembrane alpha-helix. When reconstituted with the Ca(2+)-ATPase from skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum into sealed vesicles, the presence of SLN leads to a reduced level of accumulation of Ca(2+). Heats of reaction of the reconstituted Ca(2+)-ATPase with ATP were measured using isothermal calorimetry. The heat released increased linearly with time over 30 min and increased with increasing SLN content. Rates ATP hydrolysis by the reconstituted Ca(2+)-ATPase were constant over a 30-min time period and were the same when measured in the presence or absence of an ATP-regenerating system. The calculated values of heat released per mol of ATP hydrolyzed increased with increasing SLN content and fitted to a simple binding equation with a dissociation constant for the SLN.ATPase complex of 6.9 x 10(-4) +/- 2.9 x 10(-4) in units of mol fraction per monolayer. It is suggested that the interaction between Ca(2+)-ATPase and SLN in the sarcoplasmic reticulum could be important in thermogenesis by the sarcoplasmic reticulum. 相似文献

The sarcoplasmic reticulum of skeletal muscle retains a membrane bound Ca2+-ATPase which is able to interconvert different forms of energy. A part of the chemical energy released during ATP hydrolysis is converted into heat and in the bibliography it is assumed that the amount of heat produced during the hydrolysis of an ATP molecule is always the same, as if the energy released during ATP cleavage were divided in two non-interchangeable parts: one would be converted into heat, and the other used for Ca2+ transport. Data obtained in our laboratory during the past three years indicate that the amount of heat released during the hydrolysis of ATP may vary between 7 and 32 kcal/mol depending on whether or not a transmembrane Ca2+ gradient is formed across the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane. Drugs such as heparin and dimethyl sulfoxide are able to modify the fraction of the chemical energy released during ATP hydrolysis which is used for Ca2+ transport and the fraction which is dissipated in the surrounding medium as heat. 相似文献

In sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles or in the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase purified from sarcoplasmic reticulum, quercetin inhibited ATP hydrolysis, Ca2+ uptake, ATP-Pi exchange, ATP synthesis coupled to Ca2+ efflux, ATP-ADP exchange, and steady state phosphorylation of the ATPase by inorganic phosphate. Steady state phosphorylation of the ATPase by ATP was not inhibited. Quercetin also inhibited ATP and ADP binding but not the binding of Ca2+. The inhibition of ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport by quercetin was reversible, and ATP, Ca2+, and dithiothreitol did not affect the inhibitory action of quercetin. 相似文献

Effects of nonsolubilizing and solubilizing concentrations of Triton X-100 on Ca2+ binding and Ca2+-ATPase activity of sarcoplasmic reticulum 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The effect of low concentrations of Triton X-100, below that required for solubilization, on the properties of the Ca2+-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum has been investigated. The changes observed have been compared with the changes produced on solubilization of the vesicles at higher concentrations of detergent. In the range 0.02-0.05% (w/v) Triton X-100, concentrations which did not solubilize the vesicles but completely inhibit ATP-mediated Ca2+ accumulation, 8-16 mol of detergent/mol of ATPase was associated with the vesicles. This amount of Triton X-100 altered equilibrium Ca2+ binding and Ca2+ activation of p-nitrophenyl phosphate and of ATP hydrolysis in a manner which lowered the apparent Ca2+ cooperatively (nH = 1 or less), and which increased the K0.5(Ca) value 20-fold. These changes in Ca2+ binding and activation parameters were associated with a 90% lower Ca2+-induced change in fluorescence of fluorescein isothiocyanate modified enzyme. The rates of p-nitrophenyl phosphate and of ATP hydrolysis, at saturating Ca2+ concentrations, were about half that of detergent-free vesicles. The rate constant for phosphoenzyme hydrolysis in the absence of Ca2+, calculated from medium Pi in equilibrium HOH exchange and phosphoenzyme measurements, was lowered from 38 to 11 s-1. The steady-state level of phosphoenzyme formed from Pi in the absence of Ca2+ was slightly increased up to 0.02% Triton X-100 and then decreased about half at 0.05%. The synthesis of ATP in single turnover type experiments was not affected by detergent binding. Pi in equilibrium ATP exchange was inhibited 65%.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) ATPase 1 (SERCA 1) is able to handle the energy derived from ATP hydrolysis in such a way as to determine the parcel of energy that is used for Ca(2+) transport and the fraction that is converted into heat. In this work we measured the heat production by SERCA 1 in the two sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) fractions: the light fraction (LSR), which is enriched in SERCA and the heavy fraction (HSR), which contains both the SERCA and the ryanodine Ca(2+) channel. We verified that although HSR cleaved ATP at faster rate than LSR, the amount of heat released during ATP hydrolysis by HSR was smaller than that measured by LSR. Consequently, the amount of heat released per mol of ATP cleaved (DeltaH(cal)) by HSR was lower compared to LSR. In HSR, the addition of 5 mM Mg(2+) or ruthenium red, conditions that close the ryanodine Ca(2+) channel, promoted a decrease in the ATPase activity, but the amount of heat released during ATP hydrolysis remained practically the same. In this condition, the DeltaH(cal) values of ATP hydrolysis increased significantly. Neither Mg(2+) nor ruthenium red had effect on LSR. Thus, we conclude that heat production by SERCA 1 depends on the region of SR in which the enzyme is inserted and that in HSR, the DeltaH(cal) of ATP hydrolysis by SERCA 1 depends on whether the ryanodine Ca(2+) channel is opened or closed. 相似文献

Cyclopiazonic acid is a specific inhibitor of the Ca2+-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum 总被引:33,自引:0,他引:33
The mycotoxin, cyclopiazonic acid (CPA), inhibits the Ca2+-stimulated ATPase (EC 3.6.1.38) and Ca2+ transport activity of sarcoplasmic reticulum (Goeger, D. E., Riley, R. T., Dorner, J. W., and Cole, R. J. (1988) Biochem. Pharmacol. 37, 978-981). We found that at low ATP concentrations (0.5-2 microM) the inhibition of ATPase activity was essentially complete at a CPA concentration of 6-8 nmol/mg protein, indicating stoichiometric reaction of CPA with the Ca2+-ATPase. Cyclopiazonic acid caused similar inhibition of the Ca2+-stimulated ATP hydrolysis in intact sarcoplasmic reticulum and in a purified preparation of Ca2+-ATPase. Cyclopiazonic acid also inhibited the Ca2+-dependent acetylphosphate, p-nitrophenylphosphate and carbamylphosphate hydrolysis by sarcoplasmic reticulum. ATP protected the enzyme in a competitive manner against inhibition by CPA, while a 10(5)-fold change in free Ca2+ concentration had only moderate effect on the extent of inhibition. CPA did not influence the crystallization of Ca2+-ATPase by vanadate or the reaction of fluorescein-5'-isothiocyanate with the Ca2+-ATPase, but it completely blocked at concentrations as low as 1-2 mol of CPA/mol of ATPase the fluorescence changes induced by Ca2+ and [ethylenebis(oxyethylenenitrilo)]tetraacetic acid (EGTA) in FITC-labeled sarcoplasmic reticulum and inhibited the cleavage of Ca2+-ATPase by trypsin at the T2 cleavage site in the presence of EGTA. These observations suggest that CPA interferes with the ATP-induced conformational changes related to Ca2+ transport. The effect of CPA on the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase appears to be fairly specific, since the kidney and brain Na+,K+-ATPase (EC 3.6.1.37), the gastric H+,K+-ATPase (EC 3.6.1.36), the mitochondrial F1-ATPase (EC 3.6.1.34), the Ca2+-ATPase of erythrocytes, and the Mg2+-activated ATPase of T-tubules and surface membranes of rat skeletal muscle were not inhibited by CPA, even at concentrations as high as 1000 nmol/mg protein. 相似文献

The Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) found in vesicles derived from the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum vesicles of rats brown adipose tissue and rabbit white muscle were identified by gel electrophoresis, Western blot, electron microscopy and immunolabeling with gold particles. In both tissues, the isoform found was SERCA 1. The Ca2+ affinity of the fat SERCA 1 was different from the muscle isoform. The degree of uncoupling is estimated measuring the ratio between Ca2+ transport and ATP cleaved. In brown fat vesicles the degree of uncoupling varied depending on the Ca2+ concentration of the medium. This was not observed in vesicles derived from muscle. At all Ca2+ concentrations tested, the uncoupling was not related to Ca2+ leakage from the membrane and was far more pronounced in fat than in muscle vesicle. When a Ca2+ gradient was formed across the vesicles membrane the heat released during ATP hydrolysis varied between 22 and 26 Kcal/mol in both fat and muscle vesicles but in the absence of a gradient the heat released was 17 Kcal/mol in fat and 12 Kcal/mol in muscle. The data reported indicate that the SERCA 1 of brown adipocytes is far more thermogenic than the white muscle SERCA 1, and suggest that, in addition to storing Ca2+ inside the endoplasmic reticulum, the SERCA 1 may represent a source of heat production contributing to the thermogenic function of brown adipose tissue. 相似文献

An antibody prepared against highly purified rabbit muscle Ca2+-ATPase from sarcoplasmic reticulum has been observed to cross-react with proteins in human platelet membrane vesicles. The antibody specifically precipitated Ca2+-ATPase activity from solubilized human platelet membranes and recognized two platelet polypeptides denatured in sodium dodecyl sulfate with Mr = 107,000 and 101,000. Ca2+-ATPase activity from Brij 78-solubilized platelet membranes was purified up to 10-fold. The purified preparation consisted mainly of two polypeptides with Mr approximately 100,000, and 40,000. The lower molecular weight protein appeared unrelated to Ca2+-ATPase activity. The Ca2+-ATPase in human platelet membrane vesicles exhibited "negative cooperativity" with respect to the kinetics of ATP hydrolysis. The apparent Km for Ca2+ activation of ATPase activity was 0.1 microM. Ca2+-dependent phosphorylation of platelet vesicles by [gamma-32P]ATP at 0 degrees C yielded a maximum of 0.2-0.4 nmol of PO4/mg of protein that was labile at pH 7.0 and 20 degrees C. This result suggests that only about 2-4% of the total protein in platelet membrane vesicles is the Ca2+-ATPase, which agrees with an estimate based on the specific activity of the Ca2+-ATPase in platelet membranes (20-50 nmol of ATP hydrolyzed/min/mg of protein at 30 degrees C). Calmodulin resulted in only a 1.6-fold stimulation of Ca2+-ATPase activity even after extensive washing of membranes with a calcium chelator or chlorpromazine. It is concluded that human platelets contain a Ca2+-ATPase immunochemically related to the Ca2+ pump from rabbit sarcoplasmic reticulum and that the enzymatic characteristics and molecular weight of the platelet ATPase are quite similar to those of the muscle ATPase. 相似文献

The sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) of skeletal muscle contains a 53 kDa glycoprotein of unknown function, as well as the (Ca(2+)-Mg2+)-ATPase. It has been suggested that the glycoprotein couples the hydrolysis of ATP by the ATPase to the transport of calcium. It has been shown that if SR vesicles are solubilized in cholate in media containing low K+ concentrations followed by reconstitution, then vesicles are formed containing the glycoprotein and with ATP hydrolysis coupled to Ca2+ accumulation, as shown by a large stimulation of ATPase activity by addition of A23187. In contrast, if SR vesicles are solubilized in media containing a high concentration of K+, then the vesicles that are produced following reconstitution lack the glycoprotein and show low stimulation by A23187 (Leonards, K.S. and Kutchai, H. (1985) Biochemistry 24, 4876-4884). We show that the effect of K+ on reconstitution does not follow from any changes in the amount of glycoprotein but rather from an effect of K+ on the detergent properties of cholate. In low K+ media, the cmc of cholate is high, cholate is a relatively poor detergent and incomplete solubilization results in 'reconstitution' of vesicles with the correct orientation of ATPase molecules. In high K+ media, the cmc of cholate is reduced and more complete solubilization of the SR leads to a true reconstitution with the formation of vesicles with a random orientation of ATPase molecules. The experiments provide no evidence for an effect of the glycoprotein on the (Ca(2+)-Mg2+)-ATPase. 相似文献

The effects of aromatic compounds in sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase were investigated. The solubility of the drugs in various organic solvents and water was measured. The ratio between the solubility in organic solvents and that in water (distribution coefficient) was used as an index of their hydrophobicity. The order found was triphenylphosphine greater than diphenylamine greater than 3-nitrophenol greater than 4-nitrophenol greater than 1,3-dihydroxybenzene. The effects observed on the Ca2+-ATPase were correlated with hydrophobicity of the drugs, activation and inhibition being obtained at a lower concentration the greater the distribution coefficient of the drug into organic solvent. In leaky vesicles, the effects of each compound on the ATPase activity varied depending on the Ca2+ concentration in the medium: it inhibited in the presence of 5 microM Ca2+ and activated when the Ca2+ concentration was raised to 2 mM. In intact vesicles, 3- and 4-nitrophenol, diphenylamine, and triphenylphosphine enhanced both the rate of ATP hydrolysis and the amount of Ca2+ accumulated by the vesicles. These four drugs inhibited Ca2+ uptake when ITP was used as substrate. 1,3-Dihydroxybenzene enhanced the amount of Ca2+ accumulated by the vesicles regardless of whether ATP or ITP was the substrate. All five compounds inhibited the phosphorylation of the enzyme by Pi, the efflux of Ca2+, and the synthesis of ATP measured during the reversal of the Ca2+ pump. The results indicate that the hydrophobic character of various organic compounds determines their access to sensitive domains of the membrane-bound calcium pump. Additional specific effects are then produced, depending on the structure of each compound. 相似文献

We have reexamined the "uncoupling" of Ca2+ transport from ATP hydrolysis, which has been reported to be caused by trypsin cleavage of the Ca2+-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) vesicles at the second (slower) of two characteristic tryptic sites (Scott, T. L., and Shamoo, A. E. (1982) J. Membr. Biol. 64, 137-144). We find that the loss of Ca2+ accumulation capacity in SR vesicles is poorly correlated with this cleavage under several conditions. The loss is accompanied by increased Ca2+ permeability but not by changes in the properties of the ATPase or ATP-Pi exchange activities of the vesicles. Proteoliposomes containing purified Ca2+-ATPase which has been cleaved in part at the two tryptic sites are as well coupled and impermeable to Ca2+ as proteoliposomes containing intact Ca2+-ATPase. We conclude that the loss of Ca2+ accumulation capacity in SR vesicles on tryptic treatment is due to cleavage of a SR membrane component other than the Ca2+-ATPase, possibly a component of the gated channels which function in Ca2+ release from SR, which leads to a Ca2+ leak. The hydrolytic and coupled transport functions of the Ca2+-ATPase itself may well be unaffected by the two tryptic cleavages. 相似文献

The regulation of ATPase-ATPase interactions in sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane. I. The effects of Ca2+, ATP, and inorganic phosphate 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Two-dimensional crystalline arrays of Ca2+-ATPase molecules develop after treatment of sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles with Na3VO4 in calcium-free medium (Dux, L., and Martonosi, A. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 2599-2603). The formation of Ca2+-ATPase crystals is inhibited by Ca2+ (2 microM), or ATP (5 mM), but not by ADP, 5'-adenylylimidodiphosphate, or adenylylmethylenediphosphonate. ATPase crystals did not form at 37 degrees C and exposure of preformed crystals to 37 degrees C for 1 h caused the disappearance of crystal lattice. Inorganic orthophosphate (1 mM at pH 6.0) promoted the formation of a distinct crystal form of Ca2+-ATPase, which was different from that produced by Na3VO4. These observations indicate that Ca2+, ATP, inorganic phosphate, pH, and temperature influence the interactions between ATPase molecules in the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane. 相似文献

Interaction of myotoxin a with the Ca2+-ATPase of skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Myotoxin a is a muscle-damaging toxin isolated from the venom of Crotalus viridis viridis. Its interaction with the Ca2+-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) vesicles purified from rabbit skeletal muscle was investigated. Myotoxin a inhibited Ca2+ loading and stimulated Ca2+-dependent ATPase without affecting unidirectional Ca2+ efflux. Its action was dose, time, and temperature dependent. Myotoxin a partially blocked the binding of specific anti-(rabbit SR Ca2+-ATPase) antibodies. It is concluded that myotoxin a attaches to the SR Ca2+-ATPase and uncouples Ca2+ uptake from Ca2+-dependent ATP hydrolysis. Myotoxin a also prevented the formation of decavanadate-induced two-dimensional crystalline arrays of the SR Ca2+-ATPase. 相似文献
