Calcium-activated potassium transport and high molecular weight forms of calpromotin.
Investigations of human red blood cells show that a cytoplasmic protein called calpromotin is involved in the regulation of calcium-activated potassium transport. Calpromotin associates with the membrane in the presence of calcium and undergoes a chemical transformation. High performance gel filtration and gel electrophoresis show that the cytoplasmic and membrane-bound calpromotin can exist in...
متن کاملEpidermal growth factor: high and low molecular weight forms.
In crude homogenates of the submaxillary gland of the male mouse, epidermal growth factor (EGF) activity was found almost entirely in a high molecular weight complex (about 74,000 daltons). This high molecular weight form may be reversibly dissociated into EGF and an EGF-binding protein. EGF was found to have a molecular weight of approximately 6400. The EGF-binding protein has a molecular weig...
متن کاملCharacterization of different high molecular weight angiotensinogen forms.
BACKGROUND Angiotensinogen is the substrate for renin in the system that releases angiotensin II. This renin-angiotensin system is an important regulator of blood pressure (BP), and defects in the system are linked to the development of hypertension. Native angiotensinogen is a 62,000-dalton monomer, but various high molecular weight forms also exist, which have not been well characterized. Hig...
متن کاملHigh Molecular Weight Forms of Mammalian Respiratory Chain Complex II
Mitochondrial respiratory chain is organised into supramolecular structures that can be preserved in mild detergent solubilisates and resolved by native electrophoretic systems. Supercomplexes of respiratory complexes I, III and IV as well as multimeric forms of ATP synthase are well established. However, the involvement of complex II, linking respiratory chain with tricarboxylic acid cycle, in...
متن کاملPotassium blocks barium permeation through a calcium-activated potassium channel
Single high-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ channels from rat skeletal muscle were inserted into planar lipid bilayers, and discrete blocking by the Ba2+ ion was studied. Specifically, the ability of external K+ to reduce the Ba2+ dissociation rate was investigated. In the presence of 150 mM internal K+, 1-5 microM internal Ba2+, and 150 mM external Na+, Ba2+ dissociation is rapid (5 s-1) in exte...
