  • Title: Modulator binding protein antagonizes activation of (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase and Ca2+ transport of red blood cell membranes.

    Journal: J Supramol Struct; 1978; 9(2):269-74. PubMed ID: 155181.
    Abstract:
    Red blood cells contain a protein that activates membrane-bound (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase and Ca2+ transport. The red blood cell activator protein is similar to a modulator protein that stimulates cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase. Wang and Desai [Journal of Biological Chemistry 252:4175--4184, 1977] described a modulator-binding protein that antagonizes the activation of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase by modulator protein. In the present work, modulator-binding protein was shown to antagonize the activation of (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase and Ca2+ transport by red blood cell activator protein. The results further demonstrate the similarity between the activator protein from human red blood cells and the modulator protein from bovine brain.
