The mechanism of coupling chemical and physical reactions by the calcium ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum and other coupled vectorial systems.
نویسنده
چکیده
The coupling of the chemical reaction of ATP hydrolysis to the transport of calcium from the cytoplasm into the lumen of sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles can be defined by a set of rules that define alternating changes in the specificities of the enzyme for catalysis of chemical and physical reactions.

متن کاملThe Effect of Verapamil Administred before the Reperfusion Insult in Isolated Preconditioned Rat Heart on the Microsomal ATPase and Mitochondrial Enzyme Activities
Background: Calcium overload and free radical mediated damage in the mitochondria is the most important pathological changes associated with myocardial ischemic-reperfusion injury. The verapamil post-treatment has been previously reported to prevent reperfusion-induced myocardial injury but functional recovery may be delayed due to the drug's inherent direct myocardial depression effect. In the...
متن کاملJasmonates: Regulation of Ca-ATPase and role in calcium homeostasis
The active transport of Ca across the membrane of sarcoplasmic reticulum has received much attention for several decades from biochemical and biophysical points of view. The protein composition of this membrane system has been extensively studied and four major proteins have been identified. The molecular mechanisms by which the chemical energy of ATP hydrolysis is channelled into the vectorial...
متن کاملCa2+ binding and translocation by the sarcoplasmic reticulum ATPase: functional and structural considerations.
Three experimental systems are described including sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) vesicles, reconstituted proteoliposomes, and recombinant protein obtained by gene transfer and expression in foreign cells. It is shown that the Ca(2+) ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) includes an extramembranous globular head which is connected through a stalk to a membrane bound region. Cooperative binding of ...
متن کاملThe physical mechanism of calcium pump regulation in the heart.
The Ca-ATPase in the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane is regulated by an amphipathic transmembrane protein, phospholamban. We have used time-resolved phosphorescence anisotropy to detect the microsecond rotational dynamics, and thereby the self-association, of the Ca-ATPase as a function of phospholamban phosphorylation and physiologically relevant calcium levels. The phosphorylation of ...
