ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport was studied in rat parotid microsomes; the activity appears to be associated with rough endoplasmic reticulum vesicles, as indicated by marker distribution in subcellular fractions and by electron microscopic observations. Purified rough microsomes exhibit an ATP-dependent Ca2+ accumulation and a Ca2+-dependent ATPase activity; these activities are similarly stimulated by K+ and display an apparent Km for free calcium of 0.6-0.7 microM. A phosphoprotein, with a molecular weight of about 110,000, was detected after short incubation with [gamma 32P] ATP and CaCl2; it is suggested that this compound represents a phosphorylated intermediate form of the Ca2+-ATPase.

Audiogenic seizure (AGS)-susceptible DBA/2 (D2) mice have a significant reduction in brain Ca2+-ATPase activity compared to AGS-resistant C57BL/6 (B6) mice. This reduction is inherited together with AGS susceptibility in B6 X D2 recombinant inbred strains. The Ca2+-ATPase reduction occurs in microsomes and synaptosomes, but not in mitochondria. This enzyme activity is measured at a high Ca2+ concentration (2 mM) with no added Mg2+ or EGTA. We further studied this Ca2+-ATPase activity and a Mg2+-dependent (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity in synaptic plasma membranes (SPM) from the B6 and D2 strains. Using EGTA or CDTA to adjust free Ca2+ concentrations, we measured Ca2+-ATPase activities at Ca2+ concentrations from 0.8 microM to 436 microM. The Ca2+-ATPase activity is consistently lower in the D2 than in the B6 SPM over all Ca2+ concentrations. The basal Mg2+-ATPase activity measured at 2 mM MgCl2, is also lower in SPM of D2 than B6 mice. Calcium stimulates the basal Mg2+-ATPase activity to the same extent in the SPM of the B6 and the D2 mice. Maximum stimulation in both strains occurs at 150 microM added CaCl2 (buffered with 100 microM EGTA). Higher Ca2+ concentrations inhibit this ATPase activity similarly in both strains. The EGTA-EDTA washing of SPM significantly reduces by 50% of the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activities of both strains, whereas calmodulin treatment restored these activities. Neither of these treatments, however, has any noticeable effects on the Ca2+-ATPase activities of the strains.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The enamel organ of the growing rat incisor was fixed with a mixture of formaldehyde and glutaraldehyde and processed for ultracytochemical demonstration of Ca- and Mg-activated membrane ATPase by a one-step lead technique at alkaline pH. To inhibit nonspecific alkaline phosphatase, 5 mM levamisole was added to the incubation media. Intense Ca- and Mg-ATPase activity was demonstrated in the cell surfaces of the secretory ameloblasts, except at the proximal and distal junctional complexes and the gap junctions in the lateral and basal cell surfaces. Deep plasma membrane invaginations at the proximal and distal parts of Tomes processes facing interrod- and rod-enamel growth regions exhibited the strongest enzymatic reaction. Mg-ATPase activity was also shown to be present in the plasma membranes of secretory ameloblasts but it was less intense than Ca-ATPase. Except for a slight reaction in the Golgi membranes, all other cell organelles of the secretory ameloblasts and the adjacent enamel matrix were free of enzymatic reaction. However, when the tissues were incubated in media lacking levamisole, a prominent enzymatic reaction was observed in the newly secreted enamel matrix of the rod and interrod growth regions as well as on the plasma membranes of the cells. In maturation ameloblasts of both ruffle-ended and smooth-ended types, a weak reaction for Ca- and Mg-ATPase was restricted to basal cell surfaces facing the papillary cell layer. In tissues incubated in media lacking levamisole, a variable deposition of reaction products was observed in the Golgi membranes, mitochondrial membranes, tubular elements of smooth endoplasmic reticulum in the ruffled border zone, and along the plasma membranes of the ruffled border. Throughout the secretory and maturation stages, a moderate and/or weak enzymatic reaction for both Ca- and Mg-ATPase was seen in the plasma membranes of the cells of the stratum intermedium and the papillary layer when incubated in media with levamisole. Omission of substrate ATP and/or the enzyme activator CaCl2 from the incubation media for Ca-ATPase produced a negative reaction in the tissues examined. When the calmodulin blocker trifluoperazine was administered to the rats intravenously, Ca-ATPase activity was almost completely abolished from the plasma membranes of secretory ameloblasts, but not of other cell types.

Sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes were treated with trypsin under conditions leading to accumulation of B and three other fragments a little smaller than A1, namely A1a, A1b, and C (Mr 27,000-28,000) (Saito, K. et al. (1984) J. Biochem. 95, 1297-1304), and enzymatic properties of trypsin-digested ATPase were investigated. The tryptic cleavage pattern of SR membranes in the presence of 1 M glycerol and 5 mM CaCl2 at 35 degrees C was qualitatively similar to that obtained in the presence of Ca2+ alone. However, considerably more A1-derived fragments, A1a and A1b, which are stabilized by the binding of Ca2+ to the enzyme, were accumulated. The sample digested under this condition for 60 min was mainly composed of A1b and B, and was designated as A1b + B complex. ATPase activity was lost in parallel with the formation of A1a and A1b. On the other hand, E-P forming activity was still retained by A1b + B complex. E-P formation with this complex was strictly dependent on the presence of Ca2+ ions at micromolar concentration. This indicates that Ca2+ binding site is well conserved in this complex. E-P formed with A1b + B complex was ADP-sensitive (E1-P), and was not further decomposed, since the transition from E1-P to E2-P was blocked.

Rabbit skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) was fractionated by isopycnic density gradient centrifugation into longitudinal tubules (LSR) and terminal cisternae (TC). Junctional face membranes (JFM) were obtained by Triton X-100 treatment of the TC fraction (Costello, B., Chadwick, C., Saito, A., Chu, A., Maurer, A. and Fleischer, S. (1986) J. Cell Biol. 103, 741-753). Photoactivatable phospholipid analogs were introduced into LSR, TC, and JFM fractions to specifically label integral membrane proteins. Remarkably different labeling patterns were observed. Proteins of the following Mr were labeled and identified in the junctional sarcoplasmic reticulum (JFM): 350,000, 325,000, 80,000, 49,000, 37,000, 32,000, 30,000, and 6000. Polypeptides of Mr 105,000 (Ca2+-dependent ATPase), 77,000, 55,000, 41,000, 22,000, and 9000 (proteolipid) were labeled and found to be selectively localized in the nonjunctional sarcoplasmic reticulum (LSR). Calsequestrin, a key protein responsible for Ca2+ storage within the SR lumen, was never labeled, whether 1 mM CaCl2 was present or absent, and is termed a nonintegral membrane protein.

Calmodulin-depleted red cell membranes catalyse a Ca2+, Mg2+-dependent ATP-[3H]ADP exchange at 37 degrees C. The Ca2+, Mg2+-dependent exchange, measured at 20 microM CaCl2, 1.5 mM MgCl2, 1.5 mM ADP and 1.5 mM ATP, is comparable to the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity, between 0.3 and 0.8 mmol/litre original cells per h. EDTA-washed membranes present a Ca2+-dependent ATP-ADP exchange whose rate is not more than 7% of that found in a Mg2+-containing medium, while their Ca2+-dependent ATPase is essentially zero. Addition of 1.5 mM MgCl2 to the medium restores both activities to the levels found with membranes not treated with EDTA. Calmodulin (16 micrograms/ml) produces an eight-fold stimulation of the Ca2+-dependent ATP-ADP exchange, slightly less than it stimulates the Ca2+-dependent ATP hydrolysis. The effect of 1.5 mM MgCl2 on the exchange is greater in the presence than in the absence of calmodulin. It is proposed that the reversal of the initial phosphorylation of the Ca2+ pump, occurring at a fast rate at 37 degrees C, involves a conformational change in the phosphoenzyme. Thus, it would be an ADP-liganded phosphoenzyme of the form EP(ADP) that would experience the fast conformational transition at 37 degrees C. The great difficulty in producing an overall reversal of the Ca2+ pump should then be due to one or more reaction steps later than and including Ca2+ release and dephosphorylation.

Microcrystalline arrays of Ca2+-transporting ATPase (EC 3.6.1.38) develop in detergent-solubilized sarcoplasmic reticulum upon exposure to 10-20 mM CaCl2 at pH 6.0 for several weeks at 2 degrees C, in a crystallization medium that preserves the ATPase activity for several months. Of 48 detergents tested, optimal crystallization was obtained with Brij 36T, Brij 56, and Brij 96 at a detergent:protein weight ratio of 4:1 and with octaethylene glycol dodecyl ether at a ratio of 2:1. Similar Ca2+-induced crystalline arrays were obtained with the purified or delipidated Ca2+-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum but at lower detergent:protein ratios. The crystals are stabilized by fixation with glutaraldehyde and persist even after the removal of phospholipids by treatment with phospholipases A or C and by extraction with organic solvents. The crystals obtained so far can be used only for electron microscopy, but ongoing experiments suggest that under similar conditions large ordered arrays may develop that are suitable for x-ray diffraction analysis.

Crystalline arrays of Ca2+-ATPase molecules develop in detergent-solubilized sarcoplasmic reticulum during incubation for several weeks at 2 degrees C under nitrogen in a medium of 0.1 M KCl, 10 mM K-3-(N-morpholino)propanesulfonate, pH 6.0, 3 mM MgCl2, 20 mM CaCl2, 20% glycerol, 3 mM NaN3, 5 mM dithiothreitol, 25 IU/ml Trasylol, 2 micrograms/ml 1,6-di-tert-butyl-p-cresol, 2 mg/ml protein, and 2-4 mg of detergent/mg of protein. Electron microscopy of sectioned, negatively stained, freeze-fractured, and frozen-hydrated Ca2+-ATPase crystals indicates that they consist of stacked lamellar arrays of Ca2+-ATPase molecules. Prominent periodicities of ATPase molecules within the lamellae arise from a centered rectangular lattice of dimensions 164 x 55.5 A. The association of lamellae into three-dimensional stacks is assumed to involve interactions between the exposed hydrophilic headgroups of ATPase molecules, that is promoted by glycerol and 20 mM Ca2+. Similar Ca2+-induced crystals were observed with purified or purified and delipidated Ca2+-ATPase preparations at lower detergent/protein ratios. Cross-linking of Ca2+-ATPase crystals with glutaraldehyde protects the structure against conditions such as low Ca2+, high pH, elevated temperature, SH group reagents, high concentration of detergents, and removal of phospholipids by extraction with organic solvents that disrupt unfixed preparations.

Preincubation of rat brain synaptosomes with xanthine and xanthine oxidase (X/XO) in Ca2+-free Krebs buffer resulted in a 27% inhibition of synaptosomal gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) uptake. Addition of 1.5 mM CaCl2 increased the inhibition with X/XO to 46%, and inhibition was essentially complete when the calcium ionophore A23187 also was included. In other studies, preincubation of purified rat brain mitochondria with the combination of X/XO and 4 microM CaCl2 produced a significant (38%) decrease in state 3 respiration with glutamate/malate as substrate that was not seen with either X/XO or Ca2+ alone. Similar results were obtained using cultured mouse spinal cord neurons in which incubation with X/XO/ADP/FeCl2 and A23187 produced membrane damage as assessed by a 32% reduction of neuronal Na+, K+-ATPase activity. Neither X/XO/ADP/FeCl2 nor A23187 alone caused detectable inhibition. These results demonstrate the synergistic damaging effect of free radicals and Ca2+ on membrane function. In addition, they suggest that free radical-induced peroxidation of membrane lipid, occurring focally during complete or nearly complete ischemia in vivo, could result in intense cellular perturbation when coupled with increased intracellular Ca2+.

ATPase and calcium binding activities were studied in sarcolemmal membranes from hearts of male rats fed either a control or 2% cholesterol diet for different time periods. Studies with isolated membrane revealed a significant increase in Na+-K+ ATPase activity, sialic acid content and ATP-independent calcium binding capacity in the presence of 1.25 mM CaCl2 in the 6 week cholesterol fed group. By 12 weeks, Na+-K+ ATPase, Mg2+-ATPase and Ca2+-ATPase activities as well as ATP-independent calcium binding in the presence of 0.05 mM CaCl2 were increased in membranes from cholesterol fed rats. A significant increase (P less than 0.05) in the sarcolemmal cholesterol/phospholipid molar ratio, which is an indicator of a decrease in membrane fluidity, was also noted in the 12 week cholesterol fed group. Concanavalin A, which is believed to decrease membrane fluidity, stimulated both Mg2+ and Ca2+-dependent ATPase activities and increased ATP-independent calcium binding in control sarcolemmal preparations and these changes resembled those observed in the sarcolemma from cholesterol fed rats. Since concanavalin A did not alter the activity of Na+-K+ ATPase, it appears that some of the observed differences in sarcolemmal activities upon cholesterol feeding did not correlate well with changes in membrane order. At 24 weeks, there was a generalized depression in the sarcolemmal ATPase activities of the cholesterol group; both Mg2+ ATPase and Ca2+ ATPase were significantly less than in control.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
