  • Title: Ca2+ inhibition of brush border alkaline phosphatase activity in Hymenolepis diminuta.
    Author: Hipkiss JB, Branford White CJ.
    Journal: Z Parasitenkd; 1985; 71(6):759-63. PubMed ID: 3936297.
    Abstract:
    The brush border membrane of Hymenolepis diminuta contains several Ca2+-dependent enzymes. Following our isolation of a Ca2+-dependent modulator protein we examined the kinetic properties of the brush border marker alkaline phosphatase from fractionated and crude tegument. We show that this enzyme is inhibited by Ca2+ concentrations approaching those in the calcareous corpuscles of H. diminuta.
