  • Title: High-affinity Ca2+-stimulated and Mg2+-dependent ATPase from rat osteosarcoma plasma membranes.
    Author: Murray E, Gorski JP, Penniston JT.
    Journal: Biochem Int; 1983 Apr; 6(4):527-33. PubMed ID: 6148941.
    Abstract:
    Transplantable rat osteosarcoma plasma membrane preparations contain high-affinity and low-affinity calcium-stimulated ATPases. The high-affinity enzyme displayed a K0.5 for calcium of 0.03 microM, a Vmax of 99.2 nmol/min/mg, and a requirement for magnesium ions. It was not inhibited by 20 microM trifluoperazine nor stimulated by the addition of 2 ng of calmodulin. Lack of stimulation with exogenous calmodulin may be related to the high endogenous calmodulin content of the membrane preparations. The low-affinity Ca2+- or Mg2+-ATPase displayed a K0.5 for calcium of approximately 2.40 mM (Vmax of 185 nmol/min/mg) and a K0.5 for magnesium of approximately 2.75 mM (Vmax of 250 nmol/min/mg).
