Sorbitol density gradient centrifugation applied to intestinal mucosa homogenates resulted in a complete separation of soluble calcium-binding protein from the bound fraction of calcium-binding protein, providing further documentation of the bound pool of calcium-binding protein. The peak of the bound calcium-binding protein was not associated with the major peaks of any of the markers used, but was associated with minor peaks of alkaline phosphatase, RNA, and glucose-6-phosphatase. Lack of association of bound calcium-binding protein with (Na+ + K+)-ATPase indicated that the bound calcium-binding protein is not on the basolateral membrane. Differential centrifugation fractionation indicated that the bound calcium-binding protein is not associated with nuclei or mitochondria. The bound calcium-binding protein also could not be detected in partially purified brush borders. Exclusion of the brush border and basolateral membranes as the location of the bound calcium-binding protein suggests an intracellular locale.

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.

Dithiobis (succinimidyl propionate) has been used to cross-link sarcoplasmic reticulum microsome proteins. Although the 100,000 dalton calcium stimulated ATPase and the 60,000 dalton calcium-binding protein calsequestrin were readily cross-linked to form homopolymers, no heteropolymer formation between these two proteins were detected. The 90,000 dalton protein A1 which is always observed in our preparations appeared to preferrentially form dimers on cross-linking. When calsequestrin was solubilized using 0.1 mg deoxycholate/mg protein, this protein was not cross-linked even at dithiobis(succinimidyl propionate) concentrations ten times those used to cross-link this protein in the intact membrane. In a similar manner the deoxycholate-solubilized ATPase (0.5 mg deoxycholate/mg protein) was not cross-linked by dithiobis (succinimidyl propionate). These results suggest that the state of aggregation of the sarcoplasmic reticulum proteins may be modified when solubilized in detergents such as deoxycholate. When the 100,000 dalton ATPase polypeptide was cleaved with trypsin to two fragments with molecular weights of approximately 55,000, these could be readily cross-linked. The fragments were capable of forming polymers with either other 55,000 dalton fragments or with the 100,000 dalton ATPase. The 29,000 and 22,000 dalton fragments, produced by further tryptic cleavage of the 55,000 dalton fragments, were not cross-linked at dithiobis (succinimidyl propionate) concentrations which readily cross-linked the 55,000 dalton fragments. Thus tryptic cleavage of the ATPase to fragments smaller than 55,000 dalton altered associations made by the ATPase in the membrane.

An acidic calcium-binding protein was isolated from the soluble fraction of the homogenate of ox neurohypophyses. The protein has a molecular weight of 35 000 and a subunit weight of 15 000. The purification procedure involved ammonium sulphate fractionation, DEAE-cellulose chromatography and gel filtration on Sephadex G-100 and Sephadex G-50. Conventional and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis demonstrated it to be a protein distinct from the S-100 protein and the soluble hormone-binding proteins (neurophysins) abundant in the neurohypophysis. This appears to be the only Ca2+-binding protein in the soluble part of the homogenate, with an apparent Kdiss for Ca2+ of 1.1 X 10(-5) M (at 22 degrees C) and a binding capacity of 2 mol of calcium per mol of protein. Two different Ca2+-binding proteins of molecular weights 16 500 and 68 000, respectively, were identified in the sodium-deoxycholate-soluble proteins from an ox neurohypophysial microsome fraction. One of them (the former) has been isolated in high purity by DEAE-cellulose chromatography and gel filtration on Sephadex G-200. This protein binds 4 mol of calcium per mol of protein with an apparent Kdiss of 1.0 X 10(-5) M (at 22 degrees C). The sodium-deoxycholate-insoluble proteins from the microsomal fraction also have Ca2+-binding components. The soluble Ca2+-binding protein has properties similar to and may be identical to Ca2+-binding proteins which have been isolated from bovine brain and have been demonstrated to be modulators of brain cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase and of actinomyosin ATPase. It also resembles Ca2+-binding proteins isolated from bovine adrenals and the electroplax from electrophorus electricus.

The effect of regucalcin, a calcium-binding protein isolated from rat liver cytosol, on deoxyuridine 5'-triphosphatase (dUTPase) in the cytosol of rat liver was investigated. Addition of Ca2+ up to 5.0 microM to the enzyme reaction mixture caused a significant decrease of dUTPase activity, while Zn2+, Cd2+, Co2+, Al3+, Mn2+ and Ni2+ (10 microM) did not have an appreciable effect. The Ca(2+)-induced decrease of dUTPase activity was reversed by the presence of regucalcin; the effect was complete at 1.0 microM of the protein. Regucalcin had no effect on the basal activity of the enzyme. Meanwhile, the reversible effect of regucalcin on the Ca2+ (10 microM)-induced decrease of dUTPase activity was not altered by the coexistence of Cd2+ or Zn2+ (10 microM). The present data suggest that liver cytosolic dUTPase is uniquely regulated by Ca2+ of various metals, and that the Ca2+ effect is reversed by regucalcin.

The concentration of calcium-binding protein (CaBP) and the activities of calcium adenosine triphosphatase (Ca(2+)-ATPase) and carbonic anhydrase (CA) were determined in the shell gland mucosa of hens in two experiments. In Experiment 1, laying hens on a proprietary layer mash were compared with hens rested from lay by the feeding of whole grain barley. In Experiment 2 comparisons were made of laying hens fed the proprietary layer mash and producing eggs with either strong or weak shells. These latter comparisons were also made when the shell gland was quiescent or active with respect to daily eggshell formation. Feeding whole grain barley reduced egg production to zero after 11 days. This reduction in rate of lay was accompanied by significant reductions in all three markers, the effect on Ca(2+)-ATPase and CaBP being less than for CA. Control values were regained between 10 and 16 days after the barley was replaced with the layer mash. Relative shell strength and the physiological status of the shell gland with respect to time of daily eggshell formation had no significant effect on any marker in Experiment 2.

The effect of the calcium-binding protein regucalcin on the Ca2+ transport system in rat liver mitochondria was investigated. Ca2+ transport was assayed by the method of Millipore filtration to estimate mitochondrial 45Ca2+ accumulation. 45Ca2+ uptake was stimulated by the presence of regucalcin (1.0 and 2.0 microM). This stimulation was remarkable during 1.0 min after 45Ca2+ addition, while appreciable stimulation was no longer seen at 3 min. Regucalcin (2.0 microM)-induced stimulation of 45Ca2+ uptake was prevented by the presence of ruthenium red (1.0 microM) and lanthanum chloride (0.1 mM). Regucalcin (2.0 microM) did not increase the mitochondrial adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity during 3.0 min after Ca2+ addition. Meanwhile, 45Ca2+, which accumulated in the mitochondria during 5.0 min after 45Ca2+ addition, was not released by the addition of regucalcin. Regucalcin may stimulate Ca2+ uptake in rat liver mitochondria independently of the energy.

A calmodulin-like protein (CLP) has been identified in buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) seminal plasma and partially characterized. It was heat stable and had properties similar to those of the calcium-binding protein, calmodulin. It is present in relatively high concentrations in buffalo seminal plasma. When added to buffalo red-blood cell plasma membrane (RBC ghosts) it increased Ca++, Mg++-ATPase activity by 112%. The activation is counteracted by chlorpromazine and trifluoperazine, the anti-calmodulin drugs. A similar calmodulin-activated Ca++ pump has been found predominantly in the tail fractions of buffalo spermatozoa. The existence of CLP in buffalo seminal plasma may be responsible for some of the physiological changes observed during capacitation and acrosome reaction. A hypothesis has been proposed involving CLP in regulation of these events.

The effect of regucalcin, a calcium-binding protein isolated from rat liver cytosol, on Ca2+-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity in hepatic microsomes was investigated. Mg2+-ATPase activity was clearly increased by the presence of 50 microM Ca2+. Regucalcin (1.0-4.0 microM) caused a remarkable elevation (about 3-fold) of Ca2+-ATPase activity. Also, Mg2+-ATPase activity was increased (about 1.6-fold) by the presence of regucalcin (2.0 and 4.0 microM). Guanosine-5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTPrs; 10(-5) and 10(-4) M) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidized form (NADP+; 10(-5) to 10(-3) M) or reduced form (NADPH; 10(-4) and 10(-3) M) significantly increased Ca2+-ATPase activity. These increases were not enhanced by the presence of regucalcin (2.0 microM). Of various metal ions, a comparatively low concentration of V5+ (10(-5) M) or Cd2+ (10(-6) M) significantly increased Ca2+-ATPase activity, while Hg2+, Zn2+, Cu2+ and Mn2+ did not have such an effect. Regucalcin (2.0 microM) did not enhance the effect of V5+ and Cd2+ on Ca2+-ATPase activity. The present finding, that regucalcin activates hepatic microsomal Ca2+-ATPase, suggests a cell physiological role of regucalcin as an activator in the microsomal Ca2+-pump activity. This action of regucalcin may not be influenced by other regulators.

The intestinal absorption of calcium is certainly a complex process, dependent on several factors of which vitamin D, via 1,25(OH)2D3, is the major controlling hormone. The efficiency of calcium absorption is a function of calcium status and calcium need. As the body's demand for calcium increases, the process commonly termed, adaptation, is activated in which the synthesis of 1,25(OH)2D3 from precursor is increased, resulting in the stimulation of the rate of calcium absorption. The increased demand for calcium might result from the ingestion of a diet deficient in calcium, from growth, pregnancy, lactation and egg shell formation in the laying hen. Accomapanying the change in calcium absorptive efficiency are molecular modifications of the transporting enterocytes, some mentioned herein and elsewhere (Wasserman & Chandler, 1985; Wasserman, 1980; Wasserman et al., 1984). Highly correlated with the rate of calcium absorption under a wide variety of conditions is the concentration of the vitamin D-induced calcium-binding protein, calbindin-D28K (avian type) and calbindin-D9K (mammalian intestinal type). The role of calbindin-D in this transport process is not precisely known but is considered to act at the present time as a cytosolic facilitator of Ca2+ diffusion from the brush border membrane to the basolateral membrane. In addition to the induction of calbindin-D synthesis, 1,25(OH)2D3 exerts other effects on the intestinal epithelium that can have consequences on the calcium absorptive process. Some of these effects are summarized in Figure 14. Vitamin D-dependent reactions might be either direct effects of 1,25(OH)2D3 or indirect effects due to elevated intracellular Ca2+ concentrations. These include changes in the fluidity of the brush border membrane, an increase in microvillar alkaline phosphatase-low affinity Ca-activated ATPase activity, an association of calmodulin with the 105 kD brush border cytoskeletal protein and, following calbindin D synthesis, the binding of calbindin D to a 60 kD brush border protein and to microtubules. The latter has been suggested to be related to the proposed transfer of Ca2+ by an endocytotic-exocytotic mechanism. In addition, a vitamin D-dependent intestinal membrane calcium-binding protein has been identified (Kowarski & Schachter, 1980). Playing into this multi-component system is a stimulation of cyclic nucleotide synthesis by 1,25(OH)2D3 which, through activation of cyclic nucleotide-dependent protein kinases, might modify membrane Ca2+ "channels" by phosphorylation reactions.4+ Intracellular organelles, i.e., the endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, the Golgi apparatus, are potent sequesters of Ca2+ and could contribute to the protection of the cell from excessively high Ca2+ concentrations by transiently storing absorbed Ca2+.
