Ligand-gated channel of the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ transport ATPase

Abstract: In resting muscle, cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration is maintained at a low level by active Ca2+ transport mediated by the Ca2+ ATPase from sarcoplasmic reticulum. The region of the protein that contains the catalytic site faces the cytoplasmic side of the membrane, while the transmembrane helices form a channel-like structure that allows Ca2+ translocation across the membrane. When the coupling between the catalytic and transport domains is lost, the ATPase mediates Ca2+ efflux as a Ca2+ channel. The Ca2+ efflux… Show more

“…It has been shown in previous reports that Ca# + leaks through the skeletal muscle Ca# + -ATPase when vesicles previously loaded with Ca# + are incubated in media containing none of the ligands of the ATPase [55,56]. This efflux is not coupled to the synthesis of ATP and is referred to as passive Ca# + efflux.…”

“…This efflux is not coupled to the synthesis of ATP and is referred to as passive Ca# + efflux. The rate of passive Ca# + efflux is decreased when thapsigargin or one of the ligands of the pump, such as Ca# + , Mg# + or K + , is added to the efflux medium [55][56][57]. The effectiveness of cations in blocking the passive efflux of Ca# + from skeletal muscle vesicles is decreased at acidic pH [48].…”

“…Dimethyl sulfoxide is able to couple the Ca 2+ -ATPase (Inesi & de Meis 1989, de Meis et al 1990, de Meis et al 1980, de Meis 1989 (Table I). Heparin is an uncoupling drug that inhibits both the synthesis and the hydrolysis of ATP and increases the leakage of Ca 2+ through the Ca 2+ -ATPase (de Meis & Suzano 1994, Wolosker & de Meis 1995, Rocha et al 1996. In the presence of 3 µg/ml heparin the vesicles still retained a small amount of Ca 2+ and despite the significant decrease of the ATPase activity, the heat released during the different incubation intervals was similar to that measured with the control without heparin.…”

“…In the bibliography, the simultaneous synthesis and hydrolysis of ATP measured in steady state conditions is referred to as the ATP ↔ P i exchange reaction (Hasselbach & Makinose 1961, Barlogie et al 1971, Makinose & Hasselbach 1971, de Meis & Vianna 1979, Inesi 1985, de Meis 1993. Recently (Gould et al 1987, Gould et al 1978, Inesi & de Meis 1989, Galina & de Meis 1991, De Meis et al 1990, de Meis, 1991, de Meis & Suzano 1994, Wolosker & de Meis 1995 it has been shown that during the ATP ↔ P i exchange only part of the Ca 2+ efflux is coupled with the synthesis of ATP. The other part leaks through the Ca 2+ -ATPase without promoting the synthesis of ATP, a process referred to as an uncoupled efflux.…”

“…A sarco-endoplasmic reticulum Ca 2+ ATPase (SERCA) pumps Ca 2+ into the ER lumen utilizing the energy derived from ATP hydrolysis. The enzyme is highly conserved among species and its cycle has been extensively studied since 1970 (see Wolosker and de Meis, 1995). Like the PMCA, the SERCA Fig.…”
