The interaction between Ca2+-ATPase molecules in the native sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane and in detergent solutions was analyzed by chemical crosslinking, high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and by the polarization of fluorescence of fluorescein 5'-isothiocyanate (FITC) covalently attached to the Ca2+-ATPase. Reaction of sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles with glutaraldehyde causes the crosslinking of Ca2+-ATPase molecules with the formation of dimers, tetramers and higher oligomers. At moderate concentrations of glutaraldehyde solubilization of sarcoplasmic reticulum by C12 E8 or Brij 36T (approximately equal to 4 mg/mg protein) decreased the formation of higher oligomers without significant interference with the appearance of crosslinked ATPase dimers. These observations are consistent with the existence of Ca2+-ATPase dimers in detergent-solubilized sarcoplasmic reticulum. Ca2+ (2-20 mM) and glycerol (10-20%) increased the degree of crosslinking at pH 6.0 both in vesicular and in solubilized sarcoplasmic reticulum, presumably by promoting interactions between ATPase molecules; at pH 7.5 the effect of Ca2+ was less pronounced. In agreement with these observations, high performance liquid chromatography of sarcoplasmic reticulum proteins solubilized by Brij 36T or C12 E10 revealed the presence of components with the expected elution characteristics of Ca2+-ATPase oligomers. The polarization of fluorescence of FITC covalently attached to the Ca2+-ATPase is low in the native sarcoplasmic reticulum due to energy transfer, consistent with the existence of ATPase oligomers (Highsmith, S. and Cohen, J.A. (1987) Biochemistry 26, 154-161); upon solubilization of the sarcoplasmic reticulum by detergents, the polarization of fluorescence increased due to dissociation of ATPase oligomers. Based on its effects on the fluorescence of FITC-ATPase, Ca2+ promoted the interaction between ATPase molecules, both in the native membrane and in detergent solutions.  相似文献

The proteins of sarcoplasmic reticulum were cross-linked by rapid oxidation of thiol groups with I2. About two-thirds of the thiols were oxidized without any significant cross-linking, implying an extensive formation of intramolecular disulphide bonds. When the thiols were completely oxidized at room temperature a series of oligomers containing up to five molecules were observed, as well as large aggregates which were excluded from the gels. Complete oxidation at -10 degrees C left most of the ATPase (adenosine triphosphatase) as monomer. Similar results were obtained when copper-phenanthroline complexes or dimethyl suberimidate were used as cross-linking reagents. We conclude that most of the cross-linked species arise by linking of randomly colliding ATPase molecules which are present in the membrane at very high concentration.  相似文献

The usefulness of chemical cross-linking and 125I-labeling techniques in the analysis of protein-protein interactions and membrane polarity was evaluated on sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes. Treatment of fragmented sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles with glutaraldehyde, dimethylsuberimidate, or copper-phenanthroline leads to the formation of high molecular weight aggregates of the Ca2+ transport ATPase; intermediate polymers of functionally and structurally interesting sizes accumulated only occasionally and in amounts of questionable significance. Coupling of membrane proteins with tolylene 2,4-diisocyanate-albumin inhibited tht ATPase activity and caused the appearance of high molecular weight aggregates and a band of about 160 000 dalton which corresponds to the ATPase-albumin complex.Even after the 100 000 dalton band of the Ca2+-transport ATPase was severely diminished by cross-linking with copper-phenanthroline or toluene diisocyanate-albumin, the Ca2+ binding proteins of sarcoplasmic reticulum remained unreacted. A consistent finding was the presence of dimers of the Ca2+ transport ATPase in aged preparations of sarcoplasmic reticulum which were converted upon reduction with β-mercaptoethanol into 100 000 dalton units.Microsomes were labeled with 125I in the presence of lactoperoxidase, glucose oxidase, and glucose and the radioactivity oft he various protein components was measured after sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The specific activity of calsequestrin was many times greater than that of the Ca+ transport ATPase suggesting that it is exposed on the outside surface may be sterically hindered from access by bulky reagents (tolylene diisocyanate-albumin, ferritin-labeled anti-calsequestrin antibodies, proteolytic enzymes, etc.), as calsequestin becomes highly reactive with these agents only after its release from the membrane.  相似文献

The ultrastructural localization of the Ca2+ + Mg2+-dependent ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum in rat gracilis muscle was determined by indirect immunoferritin labeling of ultrathin frozen sections. Simultaneous visualization of ferritin particles and of adsorption- stained cellular membranes showed that the Ca2+ + Mg2+-ATPase was concentrated in the longitudinal sarcoplasmic reticulum and in the nonjunctional regions of the terminal cisternae membrane but was virtually absent from mitochondria, plasma membranes, transverse tubules, and junctional sarcoplasmic reticulum. Ferritin particles were found preponderantly on the cytoplasmic surface of the membrane, in agreement with published data showing an asymmetry of the Ca2+ + Mg2+- ATPase within the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane. Comparison of the density of ferritin particles in fast and slow myofibers suggested that the density of the Ca2+ + Mg2+-ATPase in the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane in a fast myofiber is approximately two times higher than in a slow myofiber.  相似文献

The state of aggregation of the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase in the membrane of sarcoplasmic reticulum and in reconstituted membrane systems has been studied using saturation-transfer electron spin resonance (ST-ESR). Saturation-transfer ESR spectra show that in the sarcoplasmic reticulum, the ATPase is relatively free to rotate, with an effective rotational correlation time of approx. 33 microseconds at 4 degrees C, consistent with a monomeric or dimeric structure. The rate of rotation is observed to decrease with decreasing molar ratio of lipid to protein. In reconstituted systems, rotational motion of the ATPase on the millisecond time scale ceases when the lipids are in the gel phase. Addition of decavanadate, which causes the formation of crystalline arrays in negatively stained electron micrographs, results in only a small reduction in rotation rate for the ATPase in the membrane. The experiments are interpreted in terms of a short-lived (on the millisecond time scale) protein-protein interaction, with the formation of crystalline clusters of ATPase molecules which form and melt rapidly.  相似文献

The involvement of membrane protein in dystrophic chicken fragmented sarcoplasmic reticulum alterations has been examined. A purified preparation of the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase protein from dystrophic fragmented sarcoplasmic reticulum was found to have a reduced calcium-sensitive ATPase activity and phosphoenzyme level, in agreement with alterations found in dystrophic chicken fragmented sarcoplasmic reticulum. An amino acid analysis of the ATPase preparations showed no difference in the normal and dystrophic (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase. The (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase was investigated further by isoelectric focusing and proteolytic digestion of the fragmented sarcoplasmic reticulum. Neither of these methods indicated any alteration in the composition of the dystrophic (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase. We have concluded that the alterations observed in dystrophic fragmented sarcoplasmic reticulum are not due to increased amounts of non-(Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase protein, and that the normal and dystrophic (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase protein are not detectably different.  相似文献

The dependence of the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity of sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles upon the concentration of pentobarbital shows a biphasic pattern. Concentrations of pentobarbital ranging from 2 to 8 mM produce a slight stimulation, approximately 20-30%, of the ATPase activity of sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles made leaky to Ca2+, whereas pentobarbital concentrations above 10 mM strongly inhibit the activity. The purified ATPase shows a higher sensitivity to pentobarbital, namely 3-4-fold shift towards lower values of the K0.5 value of inhibition by this drug. These effects of pentobarbital are observed over a wide range of ATP concentrations. In addition, this drug shifts the Ca2+ dependence of the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity towards higher values of free Ca2+ concentrations and increases several-fold the passive permeability to Ca2+ of the sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes. At the concentrations of pentobarbital that inhibit this enzyme in the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane, pentobarbital does not significantly alter the order parameter of these membranes as monitored with diphenylhexatriene, whereas the temperature of denaturation of the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase is decreased by 4-5 C degrees, thus, indicating that the conformation of the ATPase is altered. The effects of pentobarbital on the intensity of the fluorescence of fluorescein-labeled (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase in sarcoplasmic reticulum also support the hypothesis of a conformational change in the enzyme induced by millimolar concentrations of this drug. It is concluded that the inhibition of the sarcoplasmic reticulum ATPase by pentobarbital is a consequence of its binding to hydrophobic binding sites in this enzyme.  相似文献

Vanadate induces the formation of two-dimensional crystalline arrays of Ca2+-ATPase molecules in sarcoplasmic reticulum. The Ca2+-ATPase membrane crystals are evenly distributed among the terminal cisternae and longitudinal tubules of sarcoplasmic reticulum, but very few crystals were observed in the T tubules. Tryptic cleavage of the Ca2+ transport ATPase into two major fragments (A and B) did not interfere with the vanadate-induced formation of membrane crystals. The ability of Ca2+-ATPase to crystallize was lost after further cleavage of the A fragment into the A1 and A2 subfragments that is known to be accompanied by loss of Ca2+ uptake. Vanadate (0.1-5 mM) inhibited the secondary cleavage of Ca2+-ATPase by trypsin suggesting that the susceptibility of the tryptic cleavage sites is influenced either by the conformation of the enzyme or by the formation of ATPase crystals.  相似文献

We have studied the disposition of calcium ATPase in the native sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) membrane of vertebrate muscles by rotary shadowing of freeze-dried isolated vesicles and of freeze-fractured in situ membranes. The predominant disposition of the ATPase molecules is disorderly, but small oligomers (dimers, tetramers, and occasionally larger aggregates) are seen. In vesicles from white hind legs of rabbits, the density of ATPase over nonjunctional SR is 31-34,000/microns2. ATPase density is always quite high, but small protein-free lipid patches may be interspersed with it.  相似文献

The kinetics and extent of the fluorescence change induced by Ca2+ interaction with the Ca2+-ATPase from sarcoplasmic reticulum have been compared by stopped flow fluorimetry for three preparations: sarcoplasmic reticulum; purified ATPase in membrane vesicles; and solubilized, delipidated ATPase. The kinetics of Ca2+ release and binding for both purified preparations could be described by a single exponential as has been observed for sarcoplasmic reticulum. The rate and extent of the fluorescence change for the solubilized and membrane-associated preparations are shown to be quite similar to those of the sarcoplasmic reticulum. From these results, it is concluded that all of the Ca2+-induced fluoescence change in sarcoplasmic reticulum originates from the Ca2+-ATPase. In addition, since the change in fluorescence is probably result of a conformational change in the ATPase during the Ca2+ pumping cycle, the results provide additional evidence that monomeric Ca2+-ATPase may be capable of Ca2+ transport since the delipidated preparation is monomeric under the conditions used for these experiments. Finally, it is concluded that phospholipid bilayer is not essential for this conformational change.  相似文献

The influence of chemical modification on the morphology of crystalline ATPase aggregates was analyzed in sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) vesicles. The Ca2+-ATPase forms monomer-type (P1) type crystals in the E1 and dimer-type (P2) crystals in the E2 conformation. The P1 type crystals are induced by Ca2+ or lanthanides; P2 type crystals are observed in Ca2+-free media in the presence of vanadate or inorganic phosphate. P1- and P2-type Ca2+-ATPase crystals do not coexist in significant amounts in native sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane. The crystallization of Ca2+-ATPase in the E2 conformation is inhibited by guanidino-group reagents (2,3-butanedione and phenylglyoxal), SH-group reagents, phospholipases C or A2, and detergents, together with inhibition of ATPase activity. Amino-group reagents (fluorescein 5′-isothiocyanate, pyridoxal phosphate and fluorescamine) inhibit ATPase activity but do not interfere with the crystallization of Ca2+-ATPase induced by vanadate. In fluorescamine-treated sarcoplasmic reticulum the vanadate-induced crystals contain significant P1-type regions in addition to the dominant P2 form.  相似文献

The purified ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum was covalently labeled with N-iodoacetyl-N'-(5-sulfo-1-naphthyl)ethylenediamine (1,5-IAEDANS) or with iodoacetamidofluorescein (IAF). In reconstituted vesicles containing both types of ATPase molecules fluorescence energy transfer was observed from the IAEDANS (donor) to the IAF (acceptor) fluorophore as determined by the ratio of donor and acceptor fluorescence intensities, and by nanosecond decay measurements of donor fluorescence in the presence or absence of the acceptor. The observed energy transfer may arise by random collisions between ATPase molecules due to Brownian motion or by formation of complexes containing several ATPase molecules. Experimental distinction between these two models of energy transfer is possible based on predictions derived from mathematical models. Up to tenfold dilution of the lipid phase of reconstituted vesicles with egg lecithin had no measurable effect upon the energy transfer, suggesting that random collision between ATPase molecules in the lipid phase is not the principal cause of the observed effect. Addition of unlabeled ATPase in five- to tenfold molar excess over the labeled molecules abolished energy transfer. These observations together with electron microscopic and chemical cross-linking studies support the existence of ATPase oligomers in the membrane with sufficiently long lifetimes for energy transfer to occur. A hypothetical equilibrium between monomeric and tetrameric forms of the ATPase governed by the membrane potential is proposed as the structural basis of the regulation of Ca uptake and release by sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes during muscle contraction and relaxation.  相似文献

The passive Ca2+ permeability of fragmented sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes is 10(4) to 10(61 times greater than that of liposomes prepared from natural or synthetic phospholipids. The contribution of membrane proteins to the Ca2+ permeability was studied by incorporating the purified [Ca2+ + Mg2+]-activated ATPase into bilayer membranes prepared from different phospholipids. The incorporation of the Ca2+ transport ATPase into the lipid phase increased its Ca2+ permeability to levels approaching that of sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes. The permeability change may arise from a reordering of the structure of the lipid phase in the environment of the protein or could represent a specific property of the protein itself. The calcium-binding protein of sarcoplasmic reticulum did not produce a similar effect. The increased rate of Ca2+ release from reconstituted ATPase vesicles is not a carrier-mediated process as indicated by the linear dependence of the Ca2+ efflux upon the gradient of Ca2+ concentration and by the absence of competition and countertransport between Ca2+ and other divalent metal ions. The increased Ca2+ permeability upon incorporation of the transport ATPase into the lipid phase is accompanied by similar increase in the permeability of the vesicles for sucrose, Na+, choline, and SO42- indicating that the transport ATPase does not act as a specific Ca2+ channel. Native sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes are asymmetric structures and the 75-A particles seen by freeze-etch electron microscopy are located primarily in the outer fracture face. In reconstituted ATPase vesicles the distribution of the particles between the two fracture faces is even, indicating that complete structural reconstitution was not achieved. The Ca2+ transport activity of reconstituted ATPase vesicles is also much less than that of fragmented sarcoplasmic reticulum. The density of the 40-A surface particles visible after negative staining of native or reconstituted vesicles is greater than that of the intramembranous particles and the relationship between these two structures remains to be established.  相似文献

Hexachlorocyclohexanes have been shown to inhibit the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase of muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum reconstituted into bilayers of dioleoylphosphatidylcholine. However, for the ATPase reconstituted into bilayers of dimyristoleoylphosphatidylcholine, a pattern of activation at low concentration followed by inhibition at higher concentration is seen for hexachlorocyclohexanes and alkanes such as decane and hexadecane. The ATPase in sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles is also inhibited by the hexachlorocyclohexanes. The effects of hexachlorocyclohexanes on activity are largely independent of concentrations of Ca2+ and ATP. Inhibition is more marked at lower temperatures. The hexachlorocyclohexanes quench the tryptophan fluorescence of the ATPase, and the quenching can be used to obtain partition coefficients into the membrane system. As for simple lipid bilayers, partition exhibits a negative temperature coefficient. Binding is related to effects on ATPase activity.  相似文献

The addition of cupric-1,10,-phenanthroline, a cross-linking catalyst, to sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes caused protein sulfhydryl groups to form disulfide bridges. Following a short exposure to the catalyst (15 s, 22 degrees C) most of the protein was in a dimeric form (Mr = 248 000). Longer exposure times resulted in the formation of trimers, tetramers and other oligomers too large to enter the gel. At low temperatures (4 degrees C) dimer formation predominates even for exposure times as long as 5 min. Cross-linking in the presence of 7.5 mM Triton X-100 (a concentration that resulted in clearing of the membrane suspension and thus solubilization of the membrane components) showed the appearance of a considerable dimer fraction, however, most of the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase protein appeared as a monomer. Following 1 min of cross-linking at 22 degrees C, freeze-etched membranes showed no alteration in the number or appearance of 80 A intramembranous particles. Thus extensive cross-linking of the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase protein can occur without disruption of the normal position of the intramembrane portion of the molecule.  相似文献

The interaction between free fatty acids and Ca2+-dependent ATPase, an intrinsic protein of sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes, was studied with relevance to the changes in membrane permeability induced by free fatty acids. It was found that only unsaturated fatty acids increase the permeability of reticulum membranes for Ca2+, this effect being completely reversible. The increase in the membrane permeability by fatty acids is coupled to a generation of a channel for Ca2+ efflux under effect of Ca2+-dependent ATPase. The interaction between fatty acids and Ca2+-dependent ATPase was demonstrated by the protein fluorescence and electron paramagnetic resonance methods, using spin-labelled fatty acid derivatives. A model demonstrating the increase of sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane permeability for Ca2+ in the presence of the fatty acid-Ca2+-dependent ATPase complex is proposed.  相似文献

Microcrystalline arrays of Ca2+-transporting ATPase (EC 3.6.1.38) develop in detergent-solubilized sarcoplasmic reticulum upon exposure to 10-20 mM CaCl2 at pH 6.0 for several weeks at 2 degrees C, in a crystallization medium that preserves the ATPase activity for several months. Of 48 detergents tested, optimal crystallization was obtained with Brij 36T, Brij 56, and Brij 96 at a detergent:protein weight ratio of 4:1 and with octaethylene glycol dodecyl ether at a ratio of 2:1. Similar Ca2+-induced crystalline arrays were obtained with the purified or delipidated Ca2+-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum but at lower detergent:protein ratios. The crystals are stabilized by fixation with glutaraldehyde and persist even after the removal of phospholipids by treatment with phospholipases A or C and by extraction with organic solvents. The crystals obtained so far can be used only for electron microscopy, but ongoing experiments suggest that under similar conditions large ordered arrays may develop that are suitable for x-ray diffraction analysis.  相似文献

Pretreatment of sarcoplasmic membranes with acetic or maleic anhydrides, which interact principally with amino groups, resulted in an inhibition of Ca2+ accumulation and ATPase activity. The presence of ATP, ADP or adenosine 5'-[beta, gamma-imido]triphosphate in the modification medium selectively protected against the inactivation of ATPase activity by the anhydride but did not protect against the inhibition of Ca2+ accumulation. Acetic anhydride modification in the presence of ATP appeared to increase specifically the permeability of the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane to Ca2+ but not to sucrose, Tris, Na+ or Pi. The chemical modification stimulated a rapid release of Ca2+ from sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles passively or actively loaded with calcium, from liposomes reconstituted with the partially purified ATPase fraction but not from those reconstituted with the purified ATPase. The inactivation of Ca2+ accumulation by acetic anhydride (in the presence of ATP) was rapid and strongly pH-dependent with an estimated pK value above 8.3 for the reactive group(s). The negatively charged reagents pyridoxal 5-phosphate and trinitrobenzene-sulphonate, which also interact with amino groups, did not stimulate Ca2+ release. Since these reagents do not penetrate the sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes, it is proposed that Ca2+ release is promoted by modification of internally located, positively charged amino group(s).  相似文献

The effects of gramicidin S (GS), an antibiotic, on the rat heart membrane ATPases and contractile activity of the right ventricle strips were investigated. GS inhibited sarcolemmal Ca2+-stimulated ATPase (IC50 = 3 microM), Ca2+/Mg2+ ATPase which is activated by millimolar Ca2+ or Mg2+ (IC50 = 3.4 microM), and sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-stimulated ATPase (IC50 = 6 microM). The type of inhibition for the sarcolemmal Ca2+/Mg2+ ATPase by GS was apparently uncompetitive, while that for Ca2+-stimulated ATPases in sarcolemma or sarcoplasmic reticulum was of mixed type. Other ATPases, including mitochondrial ATPase, sarcolemmal Na+-K+ ATPase, and myofibrillar ATPase, were not inhibited by this agent. GS also decreased the rat right ventricle maximum force development (half-maximal inhibitory concentration was 2-4 microM), maximum velocity of contraction, and maximum velocity of relaxation. The resting tension was increased by GS to over 200%. The contractile actions of GS were mostly irreversible upon washing the muscle 3 times over a 10-min period. Decreased Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, K+ concentrations in the perfusate increased the effects of GS. These findings showed that GS was a potent inhibitor of divalent cation ATPases of heart sarcolemma and sarcoplasmic reticulum and it is suggested that these membrane effects may explain the cardiodepressant action of this agent.  相似文献

The electrogenicity and some molecular properties of the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump protein were studied by measuring steady-state Ca2+ pump currents. Ca2(+)-ATPase protein was solubilized from rabbit skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane preparations and purified by liquid chromatography. The purified Ca(+)-ATPase molecules were reconstituted into proteoliposomes and then incorporated by fusion into a planar bilayer lipid membrane. Short circuit currents across the planar membrane were detected when the ATPase molecules were activated by addition of ATP under optimal ionic conditions. Thus, the electrogenicity of the Ca2+ pump molecules was directly demonstrated. The amplitude of the pump current was dependent on the ATP concentration, and the relation was described by a Michaelis-Menten-type equation. The Michaelis constant was calculated to be 0.69 +/- 0.16 mM, which agrees well with the dissociation constant for a low affinity ATP-binding site deduced previously from the kinetics of ATP hydrolysis and from ATP binding.  相似文献
