Rapid filtration studies of Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release from skeletal sarcoplasmic reticulum. Role of monovalent ions.
We have developed a rapid filtration technique for the measurement of Ca2+ release from isolated sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles. Using this technique, we have studied the Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release of sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles from rabbit skeletal muscle passively loaded with 5 mM Ca2+. The effect of known effectors (adenine nucleotides and caffeine) and inhibitors (Mg2+ and ruthenium red...
متن کاملThe reconstituted ADP/ATP carrier activity has an absolute requirement for cardiolipin as shown in cysteine mutants.
Although the site-directed C73S mutation in the ADP/ATP carrier (AAC) AAC2 gene from Saccharomyces cerevisiae produced a glycerol-positive strain, indicating that the mutant AAC is active, on isolation and reconstitution in egg yolk phosphatidylcholine, the C73S AAC had no transport activity, whereas the wild-type AAC was fully active. Only on addition of cardiolipin was an exchange activity wi...
متن کاملMechanism of interaction of monovalent ions with phosphatidylcholine lipid membranes.
Interactions of different anions with phospholipid membranes in aqueous salt solutions were investigated by molecular dynamics simulations and fluorescence solvent relaxation measurements. Both approaches indicate that the anion-membrane interaction increases with the size and softness of the anion. Calculations show that iodide exhibits a genuine affinity for the membrane, which is due to its ...
متن کاملDressed counterions: polyvalent and monovalent ions at charged dielectric interfaces.
We investigate the ion distribution and overcharging at charged interfaces with dielectric inhomogeneities in the presence of asymmetric electrolytes containing polyvalent and monovalent ions. We formulate an effective "dressed counterion" approach by integrating out the monovalent salt degrees of freedom and show that it agrees with results of explicit Monte Carlo simulations. We then apply th...
