Abstract
We present a biophysically based kinetic model of the cardiac SERCA pump that consolidates a range of experimental data into a consistent and thermodynamically constrained framework. The SERCA model consists of a number of sub-states with partial reactions that are sensitive to Ca(2+) and pH, and to the metabolites MgATP, MgADP, and Pi. Optimization of model parameters to fit experimental data favors a fully cooperative Ca(2+)-binding mechanism and predicts a Ca(2+)/H(+) counter-transport stoichiometry of 2. Moreover, the order of binding of the partial reactions, particularly the binding of MgATP, proves to be a strong determinant of the ability of the model to fit the data. A thermodynamic investigation of the model indicates that the binding of MgATP has a large inhibitory effect on the maximal reverse rate of the pump. The model is suitable for integrating into whole-cell models of cardiac electrophysiology and Ca(2+) dynamics to simulate the effects on the cell of compromised metabolism arising in ischemia and hypoxia.

Abstract
Recently discovered macrocyclic carbon suboxide (MCS) factors with the general formula (C(3)O(2))(n) were found to strongly inhibit rabbit and rat Na,K-ATPase as well as SR Ca-ATPase. Highly active MCS factors were obtained by a base/acid treatment of their lipophilic precursor isolated from plants. In the ESI-MS spectra, the dominant molar mass ion of 431 Da corresponds to a 1:1 complex of the carbon suboxide hexamer (n=6; M(r)=408 Da) with a Na(+) ion. Additional mass ions identified in positive and negative ion mode were assigned as complexes of the MCS hexamer (n=6) and octamer (n=8) with Na(+) or with TFA(-) in various ratios. The dominant mass ion values of these active MCS factors from plants are also found in mass spectra of previously described endogenous digitalis-like factors (EDLF) from animals. This would suggest that ubiquitously distributed MCS factors may function as putative endogenous regulatory substances of Na,K-ATPase and possibly of other ATPases. With the symmetric display of several equivalent carbonyl or hydroxy groups, the structure of MCS factors is particularly suited for interactions with proteins and other bio-molecules. This could explain the high biological activity and the unusual properties of the MCS factors.

Abstract
An important group in a large protein, which is the phosphate group that transiently binds to the Ca2+ transporting ATPase (Ca2+-ATPase) of the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane, is selectively observed with IR spectroscopy. The three phosphate stretching vibrations stand out from the 50,000 protein vibrations in an isotope exchange experiment where oxygen exchange at the phosphate group is catalyzed by the Ca2+-ATPase.

Abstract
Electrochromic styryl dyes were used to investigate mutually antagonistic effects of Ca(2+) and H(+) on binding of the other ion in the E(1) and P-E(2) states of the SR Ca-ATPase. On the cytoplasmic side of the protein in the absence of Mg(2+) a strictly competitive binding sequence, H(2)E(1) <==> HE(1) <==> E(1) <==> CaE(1) <==> Ca(2)E(1), was found with two Ca(2+) ions bound cooperatively. The apparent equilibrium dissociation constants were in the order of K(1/2)(2 Ca) = 34 nM, K(1/2)(H) = 1 nM and K(1/2)(H(2)) = 1.32 microM. Up to 2 Mg(2+) ions were also able to enter the binding sites electrogenically and to compete with the transported substrate ions (K(1/2)(Mg) = 165 microM, K(1/2)(Mg(2)) = 7.4 mM). In the P-E(2) state, with binding sites facing the lumen of the sarcoplasmatic reticulum, the measured concentration dependence of Ca(2+) and H(+) binding could be described satisfactorily only with a branched reaction scheme in which a mixed state, P-E(2)CaH, exists. From numerical simulations, equilibrium dissociation constants could be determined for Ca(2+) (0.4 mM and 25 mM) and H(+) (2 microM and 10 microM). These simulations reproduced all observed antagonistic concentration dependences. The comparison of the dielectric ion binding in the E(1) and P-E(2) conformations indicates that the transition between both conformations is accompanied by a shift of their (dielectric) position.

Abstract
Darier disease (DD) is with a frequency of up to 1 in 36,000 a relatively common genodermatosis with autosomal dominant inheritance and late age of onset. The progressive skin manifestations are variable, but often debilitating and disfiguring, and may be associated with a wide range of neuropsychiatric problems, such as epilepsy and depression. On histology, acantholysis and dyskeratosis are prominent findings, implicating impaired functionality of desmosomes. Recently, mutations in the ATP2A2 gene encoding SERCA2, a calcium pump of the endo/sacrcoplasmic reticulum, have been identified as the molecular basis of DD. This slow-twitched calcium ATPase has two splice variants, one of which is highly expressed in epidermis, and maintains low intracellular calcium levels by facilitating transport of cytosolic calcium into the endoplasmic reticulum. Thus, it may confer a direct effect on the established calcium-dependent assembly of desmosomes. We screened ATP2A2 in a cohort of 24 DD families using conformation sensitive gel electrophoresis and direct sequencing, and detected 14 distinct mutations, 9 of which were novel. The mutational spectrum included 9 missense mutations, 1 nonsense mutation, 3 small in-frame deletions, and a 19-basepair insertion. Mutations were scattered over the entire gene with a slight preponderance in the first 8 exons, and affected exclusively residues conserved among all SERCAs. In addition, we found 2 silent polymorphisms, 1 of which occurred in 4 unrelated families. Comparison of molecular data and phenotypic features, such as severity and type of disease, occurrence of mucosal involvement, or association with neuropsychiatric disorders, did not reveal an obvious genotype-phenotype correlation in our cohort.

Abstract
Protein conformational changes triggered by molecule binding are increasingly investigated by infrared spectroscopy often using caged compounds. Several examples of molecule-protein recognition studies are given, which focus on nucleotide binding to proteins. The investigation of enzyme mechanisms is illustrated in detail using the Ca(2+)-ATPase of the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane as an example. It is shown that infrared spectroscopy provides valuable information on general aspects of enzyme function as well as on molecular details of molecule-protein interactions and the mechanism of catalysis.

Abstract
Mammalian skeletal muscle shows an enormous variability in its functional features such as rate of force production, resistance to fatigue, and energy metabolism, with a wide spectrum from slow aerobic to fast anaerobic physiology. In addition, skeletal muscle exhibits high plasticity that is based on the potential of the muscle fibers to undergo changes of their cytoarchitecture and composition of specific muscle protein isoforms. Adaptive changes of the muscle fibers occur in response to a variety of stimuli such as, e.g., growth and differentition factors, hormones, nerve signals, or exercise. Additionally, the muscle fibers are arranged in compartments that often function as largely independent muscular subunits. All muscle fibers use Ca(2+) as their main regulatory and signaling molecule. Therefore, contractile properties of muscle fibers are dependent on the variable expression of proteins involved in Ca(2+) signaling and handling. Molecular diversity of the main proteins in the Ca(2+) signaling apparatus (the calcium cycle) largely determines the contraction and relaxation properties of a muscle fiber. The Ca(2+) signaling apparatus includes 1) the ryanodine receptor that is the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) release channel, 2) the troponin protein complex that mediates the Ca(2+) effect to the myofibrillar structures leading to contraction, 3) the Ca(2+) pump responsible for Ca(2+) reuptake into the sarcoplasmic reticulum, and 4) calsequestrin, the Ca(2+) storage protein in the sarcoplasmic reticulum. In addition, a multitude of Ca(2+)-binding proteins is present in muscle tissue including parvalbumin, calmodulin, S100 proteins, annexins, sorcin, myosin light chains, beta-actinin, calcineurin, and calpain. These Ca(2+)-binding proteins may either exert an important role in Ca(2+)-triggered muscle contraction under certain conditions or modulate other muscle activities such as protein metabolism, differentiation, and growth. Recently, several Ca(2+) signaling and handling molecules have been shown to be altered in muscle diseases. Functional alterations of Ca(2+) handling seem to be responsible for the pathophysiological conditions seen in dystrophinopathies, Brody's disease, and malignant hyperthermia. These also underline the importance of the affected molecules for correct muscle performance.

Abstract
Time-resolved Fourier transform infrared difference spectra of the phosphoenzyme conversion and Ca(2+) release reaction (Ca(2)E(1)-P --> E(2)-P) of the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase were recorded at pH 7 and 1 degrees C in H(2)O and (2)H(2)O. In the amide I spectral region, the spectra indicate backbone conformational changes preserving conformational changes of the preceding phosphorylation step. beta-sheet or turn structures (band at 1685 cm(-1)) and alpha-helical structures (band at 1653 cm(-1)) seem to be involved. Spectra of the model compound EDTA for Ca(2+) chelation indicate the assignment of bands at 1570, 1554, 1411 and 1399 cm(-1) to Ca(2+) chelating Asp and Glu carboxylate groups partially shielded from the aqueous environment. In addition, an E(2)-P band at 1638 cm(-1) has been tentatively assigned to a carboxylate group in a special environment. A Tyr residue seems to be involved in the reaction (band at 1517 cm(-1) in H(2)O and 1515 cm(-1) in (2)H(2)O). A band at 1192 cm(-1) was shown by isotopic replacement in the gamma-phosphate of ATP to originate from the E(2)-P phosphate group. This is a clear indication that the immediate environment of the phosphoenzyme phosphate group changes in the conversion reaction, altering phosphate geometry and/or electron distribution.

Abstract
Meat quality of pigs is dependent on biochemical and biophysical processes in the time course post mortem (p.m.) and is associated with the intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis. However, there is little known about changes in the Ca2+ transporting proteins controlling the Ca2+ uptake of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) in the time course p.m. In this study changes in the Ca2+ transporting proteins were investigated in homogenates of longissimus muscles of 4 malignant hyperthermia susceptible (MHS) and 6 malignant hyperthermia resistant (MHR) Pietrain pigs. Muscle samples were obtained at different time intervals: biopsy 2 h prior slaughtering and from the carcass immediately after exsanguination (0 h), 45 min, 4 h, and 22 h p.m. The SR Ca2+ uptake rate was measured immediately after homogenization with closed calcium release channel (CRC), with opened CRC and without manipulation of CRC. Additionally the SR Ca2+ ATPase activity was determined. The results show: (i) The ability of SR to sequester Ca2+ declined to about 60% in the first 45 min p.m. in MHS samples irrespective of CRC state, whereas in MHR samples this decline was about 5%; (ii) Ca2+ uptake and Ca2+ ATPase activity were not different between the biopsy and 0 h samples, i.e. the stress of slaughter was of no immediate influence; (iii) The Ca2+ ATPase activity of the SR declined at about the same rate as the Ca2+ uptake in both MHS and MHR pig samples in the course of time p.m.; (iv) In samples, taken immediately after exsanguination, the Ca2+ ATPase activity of MHS pigs was higher than that of MHR pigs. However, in samples taken 4 h p.m. Ca2+ ATPase activity of MHS pigs has declined to about 30% of the value at 0 h; (v) The CRC can be closed and opened in all samples up to 22 h p.m. and seems to be fully functional at all sampling times; (vi) The CRC of MHS pigs is almost fully open, whereas the CRC of MHR pigs is only partially open at all sampling times; (vii) The permeability of the SR membrane to Ca2+ (determined as the ratio of SR Ca2+ ATPase with and without ionophore A23187) is the same in both MHS and MHR and did not change with ongoing time; (viii) No uncoupling of uptake from ATP hydrolysis occurred up to 4 h p.m., but the coupling differed between MHS and MHR for all time intervals with lower values for MHS pigs. The results suggest that the decreasing Ca2+ uptake rate of homogenates, sampled at different times p.m., is essentially caused by changes in the Ca2+ pump and not by changes in the CRC or an increased phospholipid membrane permeability to Ca2+.

Abstract
Time-resolved infrared difference spectra of the ATP-induced phosphorylation of the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase have been recorded in H2O and 2H2O at pH 7.0 and 1 degrees C. The reaction was induced by ATP release from P3-1-(2-nitro)phenylethyladenosine 5'-triphosphate (caged ATP) and from [gamma-18O3]caged ATP. A band at 1546 cm-1, not observed with the deuterated enzyme, can be assigned to the amide II mode of the protein backbone and indicates that a conformational change associated with ATPase phosphorylation takes place after ATP binding. This is also indicated between 1700 and 1610 cm-1, where bandshifts of up to 10 cm-1 observed upon protein deuteration suggest that amide I modes of the protein backbone dominate the difference spectrum. From the band positions it is deduced that alpha-helical, beta-sheet, and probably beta-turn structures are affected in the phosphorylation reaction. Model spectra of acetyl phosphate, acetate, ATP, and ADP suggest the tentative assignment of some of the bands of the phosphorylation spectrum to the molecular groups of ATP and Asp351, which participate directly in the phosphate transfer reaction: a positive band at 1719 cm-1 to the C==O group of aspartyl phosphate, a negative band at 1239 cm-1 to the nuas(PO2-) modes of the bound ATP molecule, and a positive band at 1131 cm-1 to the nuas(PO32-) mode of the phosphoenzyme phosphate group, the latter assignment being supported by the band's sensitivity toward isotopic substitution in the gamma-phosphate of ATP. Band positions and shapes of these bands indicate that the alpha- and/or beta-phosphate(s) of the bound ATP molecule become partly dehydrated when ATP binds to the ATPase, that the phosphoenzyme phosphate group is unprotonated at pH 7.0, and that the C==O group of aspartyl phosphate does not interact with bulk water. The Ca2+ binding sites seem to be largely undisturbed by the phosphorylation reaction, and a functional role of the side chains of Asn, Gln, and Arg residues was not detected.

Abstract
The RT PCR approach was used to obtain the nucleotide sequence of the mRNA of a sarco/endoplasmic reticulum calcium transporting ATPase (SERCA) from the cross-striated (phasic) part of the adductor muscle of the deep sea scallop. Initially, degenerate primers based on consensus sequences among SERCAs and tryptic fragments of the scallop Ca-ATPase were used. The sequence was then extended using homologous primers and the 5' and 3' ends of the transcript determined by 5' and 3' RACE. The mRNA codes for a polypeptide chain 994 amino acid residues long (coded for by 2982 nucleotides) and has a 195 bp 5' untranslated region, with a 697 bp 3' untranslated region. The scallop enzyme shows strongest amino acid similarity to the SERCA enzyme of Loligo, followed by those of Drosophila and Artemia. It resembles the vertebrate SERCA3 in that it does not possess the phospholamban binding motif and so is unlikely to be regulated by protein kinase A mediated signals.

Abstract
The topology of Ca2+-ATPase in sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) vesicles was investigated with the aid of sequence-specific antibodies, produced against oligopeptides corresponding to sequences close to the membranous portions of the protein. The antisera in competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays only reacted with intact SR vesicles to a limited extent, but most epitopic regions were exposed by low concentrations of nondenaturing detergent, octaethylene glycol dodecyl ether (C12E8) or after removal of cytosolic regions by proteinase K. In particular, these treatments exposed the loop regions in the C-terminal domain, including L7-8, the loop region located between transmembrane segments M7 and M8, with a putative intravesicular position, which had immunochemical properties very similar to those of the C terminus with a documented cytosolic exposure. In contrast to this, the reactivity of the N-terminal intravesicular loop regions L1-2 and L3-4 was only increased by C12E8 treatment but not by proteinase K proteolysis. Complexation of Ca2+-ATPase with beta,gamma-CrATP stabilized the C-terminal domain of Ca2+-ATPase against proteinase K proteolysis and reaction with most of the antisera, but immunoreactivity was maintained by the L6-7 and L7-8 loops. Immunoelectron microscopic analyses of vesicles following negative staining, thin sectioning, and the SDS-digested freeze-fracture labeling method suggested that the L7-8 epitope, in contrast to L6-7 and the C terminus, can be exposed on either the intravesicular or cytosolic side of the membrane. A preponderant intravesicular location of L7-8 in intact vesicles is suggested by the susceptibility of this region to proteolytic cleavage after disruption of the vesicular barrier with C12E8 and in symmetrically reconstituted Ca2+-ATPase proteoliposomes. In conclusion, our data suggest an adaptable membrane insertion of the C-terminal Ca2+-ATPase domain, which under some conditions permits sliding of M8 through the membrane with cytosolic exposure of L7-8, of possible functional significance in connection with Ca2+ translocation. On the technical side, our data emphasize that extreme caution is needed when using nondenaturing detergents or other treatments like EGTA at alkaline pH to open up vesicles for probing of intravesicular location with antibodies.

Abstract
Structural changes of the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase occurring in the reaction step involving phosphoenzyme conversion and Ca2+ release (Ca2E1-P --> E2-P) were followed using time-resolved infrared spectroscopy in H2O and 2H2O. The difference spectra measured between 1800 and 1500 cm-1 were almost identical to those of Ca2+ release from the unphosphorylated ATPase (Ca2E1 --> E), implying that parallel structural changes occur in both steps. This suggests that characteristic structural features of the high affinity Ca2+ binding sites of Ca2E1 are still present in the ADP-sensitive phosphoenzyme Ca2E1-P. In both Ca2+ release steps at least two carboxyl groups become protonated, each of them experiencing the same strength of hydrogen bonding irrespective of whether or not the Ca2+ free ATPase is phosphorylated. This suggests that the same amino acid residues are involved and that they are most likely those that participate in high affinity Ca2+ binding and H+ countertransport. We propose that during Ca2+ release from the phosphoenzyme protons from the lumenal side have access to these residues. Our results are consistent with only one pair of Ca2+ binding sites on the ATPase that serves both Ca2+ translocation and H+ countertransport.

Abstract
Although the primary structure and catalytic cycle of the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase has been revealed, it is not well understood whether functional Ca2+ pump proteins exist in a monomeric or an oligomeric state in native skeletal muscle membranes. Here, we show that the Ca2+-ATPase tends to form high molecular weight complexes, estimated to be dimers and tetramers using immunoblotting of two-dimensionally separated microsomal membranes following crosslinking. This agrees with both electron microscopical and biochemical findings which demonstrate that Ca2+-ATPase clusters are the predominant molecular species in native membranes and that oligomerization may play a role in cooperative kinetics and enzyme stabilization.

Abstract
Cytoplasmic Ca2+ dissociation is sequential, and the Ca2+ ions bound to the nonphosphorylated ATPase are commonly represented as superimposed on each other, so that the superficial Ca2+ is freely exchangeable from the cytoplasm, whereas the deeper Ca2+ is not. Under conditions where ADP-sensitive phosphoenzyme accumulates (leaky vesicles, 5 degrees C, pH 8, 300 mM K+), luminal Ca2+ dissociation is sequential as well, so that the representation of two superimposed Ca2+ ions still holds on the phosphoenzyme, with the superficial Ca2+ facing the lumen freely exchangeable and the deeper Ca2+ blocked by the superficial Ca2+. Under the same conditions, we have investigated whether a prebuilt Ca2+ order is maintained during membrane translocation. Starting from a prebuilt order on the cytoplasmic side, we showed that the Ca2+ ions cannot be identified after translocation to the luminal side. The same result was obtained starting from a prebuilt order on the luminal side and following the luminal to cytoplasmic translocation. We conclude that the two Ca2+ ions are mixed during ATP-induced phosphorylation as well as during ADP-induced dephosphorylation.

Abstract
Structural data on the Ca(2+)-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum are integrated with kinetic data on Ca2+ transport. The emphasis is upon ATPase-ATPase interactions, the requirement for phospholipids, and the mechanism of Ca2+ translocation. The possible role of cytoplasmic [Ca2+] in the regulation of the synthesis of Ca(2+)-ATPase is discussed.
