    Abstract:
    The data on hormonal regulation of ATP-driving ion pumps are contradictory depending on the object used: whether native cells or isolated membranes. To eliminate this contrariety, we studied the ion transporting ATPases in saponin-permeabilized cells in the presence of all endogenous regulators. In permeabilized erythrocytes we obtained the presence of Ca(2+)-dependent activation of Ca(2+)-ATPase by factor(s) not affected by calmodulin antagonist R24571. We obtained also Ca(2+)-dependent activation and inhibition of Na+,K(+)-ATPase. At a concentration of Mg(2+)-ions corresponding to the intracellular level (370 microM), the 0.5-0.7 microM Ca(2+)-activated Na+,K(+)-ATPase (up to 3-fold), whereas the 1-5 microM Ca2+ inhibited it. The cyclic AMP (10(-5) M) inhibited or eliminated Ca(2+)-dependent activation. The decrease in Mg(2+)-ion concentration to 50 microM eliminated the activation and strengthened the inhibition, which reached 100% at the 1-2 microM Ca2+ concentration. The washing of membranes with EGTA eliminated Ca2+ effects on Na+,K(+)-ATPase. These data suggest that the ion-transporting ATPases are activated or inhibited by Ca(2+)-dependent regulators whose activities may be changed by protein kinase catalysed phosphorylation.
