Abstract
Electron crystallographic studies on membrane crystals of Ca(2+)-ATPase reveal different patterns of ATPase-ATPase interactions depending on enzyme conformation. Physiologically relevant changes in Ca2+ concentration and membrane potential affect these interactions. Ca2+ induced difference FTIR spectra of Ca(2+)-ATPase triggered by photolysis of caged Ca2+ are consistent with changes in secondary structure and carboxylate groups upon Ca2+ binding; the changes are reversed during ATP hydrolysis suggesting that a phosphorylated enzyme form of low Ca2+ affinity is the dominant intermediate during Ca2+ transport. A two-channel model of Ca2+ translocation is proposed involving the membrane-spanning helices M2-M5 and M4, M5, M6 and M8 respectively, with separate but interacting Ca2+ binding sites.

Abstract
The mechanism of inhibition of the Ca(2+)-ATPase from sarcoplasmic reticulum by the sesquiterpene lactones thapsigargin, trilobolide and thapsivillosin A (TvA) has been determined. A decrease in the affinity of the ATPase for Ca2+ is observed in the presence of the inhibitors (I), consistent with a shift in the E1/E2 equilibrium for the ATPase towards E2 forms. Amounts of inhibitor beyond a 1:1 molar ratio with ATPase produce no further decrease in affinity for Ca2+, inconsistent with the formation of a dead-end complex. Measurements of the rate of quenching of the tryptophan fluorescence of the ATPase by TvA are consistent with an association step to give E2I followed by an isomerization to a modified state E2AI. The kinetics of the reversal of the effects of TvA by Ca2+ at sub-stoichiometric amounts of TvA are bi-exponential, with a fast component whose rate is independent of TvA concentration and equal to the rate observed in the absence of TvA, and a slow component whose rate decreases with increasing TvA concentration. These observations are also consistent with the formation of a modified state E2AI following the initial binding of I to E2. The equilibrium constant E2AI/E2I increases in the order TvA < trilobolide < thapsigargin. The results suggest that the effects of the inhibitors on the overall ratio of E2 to E1 forms of the ATPase follow largely from the formation of E2AI from E2I, and that binding constants are very similar for E1Ca2, E1 and E2.

Abstract
Thapsigargin is a high affinity inhibitor of sarco- and endoplasmic reticulum (SERCA) type ATPases. We have used kinetics to determine the dissociation constant of thapsigargin-sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase interaction in the absence and presence of non-ionic detergent. The observed "off" rate constant was measured as 0.0052 s-1 at 26 degrees C by the kinetics of inhibition of ATPase activity following transfer from an inactivated thapsigargin-ATPase complex to native ATPase. Inactive ATPase was produced by cross-linking the active site with glutaraldehyde. The observed dissociation rate constant was increased 7-fold by 0.1% Triton X-100, indicating that perturbation of the transmembrane and stalk region by detergent altered the binding parameters of the inhibitor. In addition, thapsigargin stabilized the ATPase against inactivation caused by detergent in the absence of Ca2+. The observed "on" rate constant of thapsigargin was measured at 26 degrees C as 25 s-1 irrespective of thapsigargin concentration, by the kinetics of thapsigargin- induced change in intrinsic fluorescence. An Arrhenius plot showed a temperature dependence of this rate constant, indicative of a conformational change in the protein with an activation energy of 9.5 kcal/mol for thapsigargin binding. The affinity of the Ca(2+)-ATPase for thapsigargin was calculated to be greater than 2 pM at pH 7.0 and 26 degrees C.

Abstract
The peptide DCRQKWKCCKKGSG [myotoxin-(29-42)], corresponding to residues 29-42 of myotoxin a, inhibits the activity of the Ca(2+)-ATPase of skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum, with a Kd value of 19.4 microM at pH 7.5, in 100 mM KCl. The peptide YKQCHKKGGHCFPKEK, corresponding to residues 1-16 of myotoxin a, is a less potent inhibitor. Inhibition by myotoxin-(29-42) is reduced at low pH and at high ionic strength, suggesting that charge interactions are important in binding to the ATPase. Inhibition of the ATPase has been shown to follow from a decrease in the rate of dephosphorylation, with no effect on the rate of phosphorylation of the ATPase or on the rate of the Ca2+ transport step (E1PCa2-->E2P). Binding of myotoxin-(29-42) decreased the affinity of the ATPase for Ca2+ and Mg2+, and increased the rate of dissociation of the outer Ca2+ ion from the ATPase. Unlike the amphipathic peptide melittin, it is suggested that myotoxin-(29-42) does not bind significantly to the lipid bilayer portion of the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Fluorescence quenching studies suggest that it could bind to the ATPase in the vicinity of Cys-344 in the phosphorylation domain and Lys-515 in the nucleotide binding domain. Inhibition of the ATPase is observed when the ATPase is reconstituted in monomeric form in sealed vesicles, suggesting that aggregation of the ATPase is not involved in inhibition.

Abstract
Pancreatic rough ER ATP-binding proteins, including two isoforms of SERCA-2b Ca2+,Mg-ATPase, were identified using specific photoaffinity labelling with 8-azido-ATP. 8-Azido-ATP irreversibly inhibited Ca2+,Mg-ATPase activity only after UV irradiation and the inhibition was prevented by inclusion of 5 mM ATP in the labelling reaction. Rough ER proteins of apparent molecular masses 141, 111, 100, 84, 69, 55 and 47 kDa were detected following photoaffinity-labelling with 8-azido-[alpha-32P]ATP. The two bands at 111 kDa and 100 kDa corresponded in molecular mass to the two SERCA-2b Ca2+,Mg-ATPase isoforms previously demonstrated immunologically [1]. Immunoprecipitation of rough ER proteins by a SERCA-2b-specific antibody showed that the two ATPase bands were photoaffinity-labelled. Photoaffinity labelling of the 111 and 100 kDa proteins was: (a) abolished when Ca2+,Mg-ATPase activity was inactivated by EDTA-treatment of rough ER membranes; (b) inhibited by the Ca2+,Mg-ATPase inhibitor vanadate; (c) not affected by thapsigargin. The data demonstrate that pancreatic rough ER contains two isoforms of the SERCA-2b Ca2+,Mg-ATPase whose ATP-binding properties are susceptible to inhibition by vanadate but not thapsigargin.

Abstract
Recent studies have demonstrated a relationship between the activity of the Ca-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum and its state of self-association. In the present study, the effects of thapsigargin (TG), a toxin that specifically inhibits the Ca-ATPase of rabbit skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane, were studied by detecting the time-resolved phosphorescence anisotropy (TPA) decay of the Ca-ATPase that had been labeled with the phosphorescent probe erythrosin-isothiocyanate (ErITC). Anisotropy decays were fit to a function that consisted of three exponential decays plus a constant background, as well as to a function describing explicitly the uniaxial rotation of proteins in a membrane. In the absence of TG, the anisotropy was best-fit by a model representing the rotation of three populations, corresponding to different-sized oligomeric species in the membrane. The addition of stoichiometric amounts of TG to the Ca-ATPase promptly decreased the overall apparent rate of decay, indicating decreased rotational mobility. A detailed analysis showed that the principal change was not in the rates of rotation but rather in the population distribution of the Ca-ATPase molecules among the different-sized oligomers. TG decreased the proportion of small oligomers and increased the proportion of large ones. Preincubation of the ErITC-SR in 1 mM Ca2+, which stabilizes the E1 conformation relative to E2, was found to protect partially against the changes in the TPA associated with the presence of the inhibitor. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that TG inhibits the Ca-ATPase by stabilizing it in an E2-like conformation, which promotes the formation of larger aggregates of the enzyme. When combined with the effects of other inhibitors on the Ca-ATPase, these results support a general model for the coupling of enzyme conformation and self-association in this system.

Abstract
Bis-phenol, a phenolic antioxidant, is an inhibitor of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and plasma membrane Ca2+ ATPases. The concentration of bis-phenol giving half-maximal inhibition of the SR Ca(2+)-ATPase is 2 microM. On binding to the SR Ca(2+)-ATPase it shifts the E2 to E1 transition towards the E2 state and slows the transition between E2 to E1. Bis-phenol completely inhibits Ca(2+)-dependent ATP hydrolysis and Ca2+ uptake by rat cerebellar microsomes at a concentration of 30 microM. The plasma membrane Ca(2+)-ATPase is also completely inhibited at similar concentrations, however, the Na+/K(+)-ATPase is only marginally affected. Other inhibitors of the ER Ca(2+)-ATPases, thapsigargin and 2,5-di-(tert-butyl)-1,4-benzohydroquinone (BHQ), inhibit Ca2+ uptake by approximately 75%. Bis-phenol therefore inhibits all types of ER Ca(2+)-ATPases present in cerebellum. This inhibitor is also able to mobilize Ca2+ from intracellular Ca2+ stores, including those sensitive to InsP3, in intact HL-60 cells.

Abstract
The nature of the senktide response of the human NK3 receptor expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells was characterised using the Ca2+ sensitive dye Fura-2 and imaging methods. Application of the NK3 receptor agonist senktide caused an increase in [Ca2+]i in the cells. The profile for NK3 receptor agonists was that senktide was more potent than [beta-Ala8]neurokinin A-(4-10) which was more potent than [Sar9,Met(O2)11]substance P. SR 48968 was a poor antagonist of the senktide response in intact cells confirming the weak affinity of this agent for the NK3 receptor (IC50 of approximately 1 microM) shown in binding assays. The NK3 receptor mediated increase in intracellular Ca2+ was independent of [Ca2+]o, blocked by the microsomal Ca2+ ATPase inhibitor thapsigargin and the phospholipase C inhibitor U73122 but not by ryanodine. Thus the source of the Ca2+ was probably a ryanodine insensitive, inositol triphosphate sensitive intracellular store.

Abstract
The Ca(2+)-ATPase of skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum can be labelled at Cys-670 and Cys-674 with 5-[[2-[(iodoacetyl) amino]ethyl]amino]naphthalene-1-sulphonic acid (IAEDANS). Resonance energy transfer has been used to measure the distance between Cys-670/Cys-674 and Glu-439 labelled with 5-(bromomethyl)fluorescein as 40 A. The height of Cys-670/Cys-674 above the phospholipid/water interface has been measured by resonance energy transfer between IAEDANS-labelled ATPase and fluorescein-labelled phosphatidylethanolamine as 54 A. This locates the hinge region of the ATPase close to the mouth of the pore observed in the cytoplasmic region of the ATPase in electron micrographs. No significant changes in these distances can be detected by resonance energy transfer on binding Ca2+ or vanadate. The height of the IAEDANS label above the phospholipid/water interface is the same for bilayers of dimyristoleoylphosphatidylcholine and dioleoylphosphatidylcholine. Conformation changes on the Ca(2+)-ATPase appear to be localised to small regions of the ATPase.

Abstract
The inhibitor sensitivity of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and plasma membrane (PM) calcium pumps of red beet (Beta vulgaris L.) were studied by measuring the ATP-driven accumulation of 45Ca2+ into isolated membrane vesicles. Both transporters were strongly inhibited by 50 [mu]mol m-3 erythrosin B, but only by 50% in the presence of 100 mmol m-3 vanadate. A number of inhibitors considered to be specific for the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR)/ER-type calcium pump in animal cells were used to further characterize the PM and ER Ca2+-ATPases in red beet and were compared with their effect on the transport and hydrolytic activities of the PM and tonoplast H+-ATPases. The hydroquinones 2,5-di(tert-butyl)-1,4-benzohydroquinone and 2,5-di(tert-amyl)-1,4-benzohydroquinone produced around 20 and 40% inhibition of activity, respectively, of the PM and ER calcium pumps and the PM H+-ATPase when present at concentrations of 30 mmol m-3. In contrast, the vacuolar proton pump displayed a much higher sensitivity to these two compounds. Nonylphenol appeared to have a general inhibitory effect on all four membrane transport proteins and gave almost complete inhibition when present at a concentration of 100 mmol m-3. Thapsigargin and the structurally related compound trilobolide produced 50% inhibition of both the ER and PM calcium pumps at concentrations of 12.5 and 24 mmol m-3, respectively. The PM and tonoplast proton pumps were also sensitive to these compounds. The ER and PM calcium pumps were almost completely insensitive to cyclopiazonic acid (CPA) up to a concentration of 20 mmol m-3. When present at 100 mmol m-3 CPA caused 30% inhibition of the transport properties of all four ATPases. The high concentrations of all of the inhibitors of the SR/ER Ca-ATPase required to inhibit the red beet ER calcium pump, together with the similar effects on the PM calcium pump and the PM and tonoplast proton pumps, suggests that these hydrophobic compounds have a general nonselective action in red beet, possibly through disruption of membrane lipid-protein interactions.

Abstract
Thapsigargin, an inhibitor of several isoforms of the Ca(2+)-ATPase protein, has been used in many cell preparations to induce an increase in cytosolic Ca2+ concentration purportedly by inhibition of the catalytic cycle. We report in this paper, that thapsigargin induces rapid Ca2+ release from sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles at concentrations higher than those required to inhibit ATPase activity. Thapsigargin also induces a similar concentration-dependent release in Ca(2+)-loaded asolectin liposomes devoid of any protein. These data suggest that Ca2+ release induced by micromolar concentrations of thapsigargin is due to an ionophoric effect on the lipid membrane.

Abstract
Stop-flow fluorescence and rapid-filtration methods have been used to establish the kinetics of Ca2+ binding to, and dissociation from, the (Ca(2+)-Mg2+)-ATPase of skeletal-muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum and to define the effects of H+ and Mg2+ on Ca2+ binding and dissociation rates. The kinetics have been interpreted in terms of the scheme: E2 E2<==>E1<==>E1Ca<==>E1'Ca<==>E1'Ca2. The kinetics of the E2<==>E1 E1 transition have been determined by measuring the rate of change of the fluorescence of the ATPase labelled with 4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole after a pH jump or the addition of Ca2+ to the labelled ATPase in the presence of thapsigargin or thapsivillosin A. It has been shown that Mg2+ has a marked effect on Ca2+ dissociation at pH 7.2 and that changes in the tryptophan fluorescence of the ATPase follow the same time course as the dissociation of 45Ca2+. It is proposed that the effect of Mg2+ follows from binding to a 'gating' site, as detected by changes in the fluorescence of the ATPase labelled with 4-(bromomethyl)-6,7-dimethoxycoumarin. The rate of dissociation of Ca2+ from the ATPase increases with increasing pH. The rate of dissociation of Ca2+ decreases with increasing Ca2+ concentration in the medium, with an apparent affinity for Ca2+ greater than that seen for the change in fluorescence amplitude. It is shown that this follows if the first, inner, Ca(2+)-binding site on the ATPase has a lower affinity for Ca2+ than the second, outer, site. Effects of H+ and Mg2+ on Ca2+ dissociation can be treated by the quasiequilibrium approach. Mg2+ and H+ also affect the rate of Ca2+ binding to the ATPase, and effects of H+ and Mg2+ on the E2<==>E1 equilibrium explain the results of experiments in which the concentrations of H+ and Mg2+ are jumped.

Abstract
Equilibrium fluorescence methods have been used to establish a model for Ca2+ binding to the (Ca(2+)-Mg2+)-ATPase of skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum and to define the effects of H+ and Mg2+ on Ca2+ binding. The basic scheme proposed is: E2 <--> E1 <--> E1Ca <--> El'Ca <--> E1'Ca2. The E1 conformation of the ATPase initially has one high-affinity binding site for Ca2+ exposed to the cytoplasmic side of the sarcoplasmic reticulum, but in the E2 conformation this site is unable to bind Ca2+; Ca2+ does not bind to luminal sites on E2. The second, outer, Ca(2+)-binding site on the ATPase is formed after binding of Ca2+ to the first, inner, site on E1 and the E1Ca <--> E1'Ca conformation change. The pH- and Mg(2+)-dependence of the E2 <--> E1 equilibrium has been established after changes in the fluorescence of the ATPase labelled with 4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole. It is proposed that Mg2+ from the cytoplasmic side of the sarcoplasmic reticulum can bind to the first Ca(2+)-binding site on both E1 and E2. It is proposed that the change in tryptophan fluorescence intensity after binding of Ca2+ follows from the E1Ca <--> E1'Ca change. The pH- and Mg(2+)-dependence of this change defines H(+)- and Mg(2+)-binding constants at the two Ca(2+)-binding sites. It is proposed that the change in tryptophan fluorescence observed on binding Mg2+ follows from binding at the second Ca(2+)-binding site. Effects of pH and Mg2+ on the fluorescence of the ATPase labelled with 4-(bromomethyl)-6,7-dimethoxycoumarin are proposed to follow from binding to a site on the ATPase, the 'gating' site, which affects the affinity of the first Ca(2+)-binding site for Ca2+ and affects the rate of dissociation of Ca2+ from the ATPase.

Abstract
Chimeric molecules consisting of parts from the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase and the Na+,K(+)-ATPase were expressed in COS-1 cells and analysed functionally. One chimera, in which most of the central cytoplasmic loop was derived from the Na+,K(+)-ATPase, while the transmembrane segments and the minor cytoplasmic loop came from the Ca(2+)-ATPase, was able to occlude Ca2+ and to be phosphorylated from ATP with normal apparent affinity for Ca2+ and ATP. This chimera also displayed normal sensitivity to thapsigargin, but was unable to undergo the transition from ADP-sensitive to ADP-insensitive phosphoenzyme and to transport Ca2+. The other chimera, which consisted of the NH2-terminal two-thirds of Na+,K(+)-ATPase and the COOH-terminal one-third of Ca(2+)-ATPase, was unable to phosphorylate from ATP, but phosphorylated from inorganic phosphate in a Ca(2+)-inhibitable and thapsigargin-insensitive reaction. These results can be explained in terms of a structural model in which the non-conserved residues in the central cytoplasmic domain of the Ca(2+)-ATPase are without major importance for the binding and occlusion of Ca2+, but are involved in the E1P-->E2P conformational changes of the phosphoenzyme, whereas residues in transmembrane segments on both sides of the central cytoplasmic domain are involved in formation of the Ca(2+)-binding sites. The data moreover show that thapsigargin sensitivity is dependent on residues in the NH2-terminal one-third of the Ca(2+)-ATPase molecule.

Abstract
The fatty acids palmitic (C16:0), stearic (C18:0), arachidic (C20:0) and arachidonic (C20:4) acids inhibit Ca2+ uptake and enhance Ca2+ efflux measured in vesicles derived from the sarcoplasmic reticulum of skeletal muscle. These effects of the fatty acids are impaired by the Ca(2+)-ATPase ligands Mg2+, Ca2+ and K+, and by drugs that block the leakage of Ca2+ through the Ca(2+)-ATPase such as Ruthenium Red, spermine [de Meis (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 5736-5742] and thapsigargin [de Meis and Inesi (1992) FEBS Lett. 299, 33-35].

Abstract
The inhibition of Ca(2+)-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum by thapsigargin has been reported to be associated with a suppression of calcium binding to the high affinity transport sites. We report here that thapsigargin also acts as an inhibitor of ATP binding by reducing its apparent affinity by about two orders of magnitude. This inhibition is non-competitive indicating that thapsigargin does not bind to the ATP binding site. This is confirmed by the fact that thapsigargin binding to the Ca(2+)-ATPase does not affect the binding of 2',3'-O-(2,4,6-trinitrocyclohexadienylidene)-ATP (TNP-ATP).

Abstract
Cytochrome P-450 has been proposed to underlie the mechanism of regulation of the plasma membrane Ca2+ permeability by the Ca2+ content of the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-sensitive Ca2+ pool. We have investigated the effects on divalent cation uptake in rat thymic lymphocytes of three structurally related imidazole reagents reported to inhibit redox mechanisms. Changes in intracellular Ca2+ concentration and intracellular Mn2+ concentration were measured fluorimetrically with indo-1 and/or quin-2. Econazole, miconazole, and SKF 96365 were found to be potent blockers of Ca2+ and Mn2+ uptake activated by release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores induced by thapsigargin. Additionally, we found that concentrations of these agents required to abolish divalent cation uptake also released Ca2+ from the thapsigargin-sensitive intracellular stores, consistent with inhibition of the endosomal Ca(2+)-ATPase. In agreement with this suggestion, we have found that all three of these agents are potent inhibitors of isolated sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase. We conclude that econazole, miconazole, and SKF 96365 inhibit cytochrome P-450-independent filling of intracellular Ca2+ pools, as well as store-regulated Ca2+ entry, and caution against the use of these compounds as selective inhibitors of cytochrome P-450.

Abstract
2,5-Di(tert-butyl)-1,4-benzohydroquinone has been shown to inhibit the Ca2+,M(2+)-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum with an affinity of 0.4 microM. It has been shown to shift the E2-E1 equilibrium for the ATPase towards E2, as shown previously for the inhibitor thapsigargin. The shift towards E2 results in a decrease in affinity for Ca2+, as also observed for thapsigargin. A marked decrease in the rate of the E2-E1 transition is observed for both BHQ and thapsigargin. A decrease in the equilibrium level of phosphorylation by Pi and of the steady-state level of phosphorylation by ATP are consistent with a decrease in the equilibrium constant for phosphorylation by Pi and an increase in the rate of dephosphorylation.
