A theory of plasma membrane calcium pump stimulation and activity.
The ATP-driven Plasma Membrane Calcium pump or Ca(2+)-ATPase (PMCA) is characterized by a high affinity for calcium and a low transport rate compared to other transmembrane calcium transport proteins. It plays a crucial role for calcium extrusion from cells. Calmodulin is an intracellular calcium buffering protein which is capable in its Ca(2+) liganded form of stimulating the PMCA by increasin...
متن کاملPlasma-membrane calcium-pump isoforms in human and rat liver.
Plasma-membrane Ca(2+)-pumping ATPases (PMCAs) extrude Ca2+ from the cytoplasm of all cells. Some previous studies of ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport by liver membranes suggested there exist specific properties of the hepatic PMCA, including regulation by hormones which affect calcium signalling. Multiple PMCA isoforms are now known to result from expression of four different genes (known as PMCA ...

متن کاملCalcium pump of the plasma membrane is localized in caveolae
The Ca2+ pump in the plasma membrane plays a key role in the fine control of the cytoplasmic free Ca2+ concentration. In the present study, its subcellular localization was examined with immunocytochemical techniques using a specific antibody generated against the erythrocyte membrane Ca2+ pump ATPase. By immunofluorescence microscopy of cultured cells, the labeling with the antibody was seen a...
متن کاملCalcium activates an electrogenic proton pump in neurospora plasma membrane.
Calcium ionophoresis into coenocytic cells of Neurospora crassa activates the plasma membrane proton pump as measured by current-voltage analysis. This is direct evidence that intracellular calcium regulates the activity of a key transport enzyme found in higher plants and fungi.
