  • Title: Solvent perturbation evidence for a two-state system regulated by calcium in sarcoplasmic reticulum ATPase.
    Author: Fronticelli C, Bucci E, Shamoo AE.
    Journal: Biophys Chem; 1984 May; 19(3):255-8. PubMed ID: 6232959.
    Abstract:
    Perturbation of sarcoplasmic reticulum ATPase with the nonionic detergent C12E8 is modulated by the amount of free Ca2+ present in the solvent prior to the addition of detergent. CD measurements show that the enzyme exists in solution in two different conformations that react differently with the detergent. They probably represent the free enzyme, and its complex with Ca2+. On this assumption, titrations with increasing amounts of Ca2+ produced data superimposable on curves obtained measuring Ca2+ bound to sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles.
