Abstract
The basal (45)Ca(2+) influx in human red blood cells (RBC) into intact RBC was measured. (45)Ca(2+) was equilibrated with cells with t(1/2)=15-20 s and the influx reached the steady state value in about 90-100 s and the steady state level was 1.5+/-0.2 micromol/l(packed cells) (n=6) at 37 degrees C. The average value of the Ca(2+) influx rate was 43.2+/-8.9 micromol/l(packed cells) hour. The rate of the basal influx was pH-dependent with a pH optimum at pH 7.0 and on the temperature with the temperature optimum at 25 degrees C. The basal Ca(2+) influx was saturable with Ca(2+) up to 5 mmol/l but at higher extracellular Ca(2+) concentrations caused further increase of basal Ca(2+) influx. The (45)Ca(2+) influx was stimulated by addition of submicromolar concentrations of phorbol esters (phorbol 12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA) and phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu)) and forskolin. Uncoupler (3,3',4',5-tetrachloro-salicylanilide (TCS) 10(-6)-10(-5) mol/l) inhibited in part the Ca(2+) influx. The results show that the basal Ca(2+) influx is mediated by a carrier and is under control of intracellular regulatory circuits. The effect of uncoupler shows that the Ca(2+) influx is in part driven by the proton-motive force and indicates that the influx and efflux of Ca(2+) are coupled via the RBC H(+) homeostasis.

Abstract
This review focuses on the physiological role of the plasma membrane Ca(2+)+ Mg(2+)-dependent adenosine triphosphatase (PM Ca(2+)-ATPase) in cellular signalling. Particular attention has been paid to the regulation of the PM Ca(2+)-ATPase (PM Ca2+ pump) by calmodulin, proteases, protein kinases, acidic phospholipids and oligomerization in intact cells. We also review recent work investigating the possible regulation of the PM Ca2+ pump by G proteins and agonists. The source of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and Ca2+ in fueling and activating the Ca2+ pump is discussed, as well as the possible role of the PM Ca(2+)-ATPase in subplasma membrane Ca2+ regulation. The physiological implication of the localisation of the PM Ca2+ pump in caveolae is also considered.

Abstract
The ionic stoichiometry of the major Ca2+ transport mechanisms in neurons is still a matter for debate. The past year has seen some particularly interesting developments in this field, not least the finding that the neuronal Na(+)-Ca2+ exchange may be able to transport K+.

Abstract
Calpain I purified from human erythrocyte cytosol activates both the ATP hydrolytic activity and the ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport function of the Ca2(+)-translocating ATPase solubilized and purified from the plasma membrane of human erythrocytes and reconstituted into phosphatidylcholine vesicles. Following partial proteolysis of the enzyme by calpain I, both the initial rates of calcium ion uptake and ATP hydrolysis were increased to near maximal levels similar to those obtained upon addition of calmodulin. The proteolytic activation resulted in the loss of further stimulation of the rates of Ca2+ translocation or ATP hydrolysis by calmodulin as well as an increase of the affinity of the enzyme for calcium ion. However, the mechanistic Ca2+/ATP stoichiometric ratio was not affected by the proteolytic treatment of the reconstituted Ca2(+)-translocating ATPase. The proteolytic activation of the ATP hydrolytic activity of the reconstituted enzyme could be largely prevented by calmodulin. Different patterns of proteolysis were obtained in the absence or in the presence of calmodulin during calpain treatment: the 136-kDa enzyme was transformed mainly into a 124-kDa active ATPase fragment in the absence of calmodulin, whereas a 127-kDa active ATPase fragment was formed in the presence of calmodulin. This study shows that calpain I irreversibly activates the Ca2+ translocation function of the Ca2(+)-ATPase in reconstituted proteoliposomes by producing a calmodulin-independent active enzyme fragment, while calmodulin antagonizes this activating effect by protecting the calmodulin-binding domain against proteolytic cleavage by calpain.

ATP-driven Ca2+ pump in the basolateral membrane of rat kidney cortex catalyzes an electroneutral Ca2+/H+ antiport. BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA 1988; 945:281-90.

Abstract
An ATP-driven Ca2+ pump in the basolateral membrane of rat kidney cortex pumps Ca2+ out of the cell at the expense of MgATP (Km = 0.191 mM). This pump has a high affinity for free Ca2+ (26 nM). Vanadate, lanthanum, N-ethylmaleimide and calmodulin inhibitor R24571 inhibited this pump activity. Dimethyl[2-14C]oxazolidine-2,4-dione [( 14C]DMO) was entrapped in the vesicles in association with the ATP-driven Ca2+ influx. The ATP-driven Ca2+ influx was stimulated by the intravesicular acid pH and an upper convex Lineweaver-Burk reciprocal plot suggested two possible kinetics; one is that this Ca2+ pump is an allosteric enzyme with more than 1.72 H+ binding sites and another is the presence of two Ca2+ pumps with different affinities for H+. Valinomycin study indicated that the ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport by the BLMV was electroneutral and voltage independent. These results strongly suggest that the ATP-driven Ca2+ pump in the renal basolateral membrane catalyzes an electroneutral Ca2+/H+ antiport.

Abstract
The activity of the solubilized and purified (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase from human erythrocyte membranes was inhibited by N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide in a concentration-dependent manner. The carbodiimide prevented formation of the phosphorylated intermediate during the catalytic cycle of the enzyme. Treatment of the enzyme with N,N'-dicyclohexyl[14C]carbodiimide resulted in the formation of a 14C-labelled polypeptide corresponding to the enzyme monomer (molecular weight 136,000). The tryptic fragmentation of this 14C-labelled enzyme resulted in the formation of three major 14C-labelled fragments with molecular weights of 58,000, 36,500 and 23,000, the latter two probably representing transmembrane and calmodulin-binding domains of the enzyme, respectively. In the absence of calmodulin, 6.7 molecules of N,N'-dicyclohexyl[14C]carbodiimide covalently bound to each molecule of Ca2+-ATPase; in the presence of calmodulin, the number of molecules of carbodiimide bound was 13.1. The binding of N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide to the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase greatly reduced its ability to bind to a calmodulin-agarose gel.

Abstract
The influence of the asymmetric addition of various divalent cations and protons on the properties of active Ca2+ transport have been examined in intact human red blood cells. Active Ca2+ efflux was determined from the initial rate of 45Ca2+ loss after CoCl2 was added to block Ca2+ loading via the ionophore A23187. Ca2+-ATPase activity was measured as phosphate production over 5 min in cells equilibrated with EGTA-buffered free Ca2+ in the presence of A23187. The apparent Ca affinity of active Ca2+ efflux (K0.5 = 30-40 mumol/liter cells) was significantly lower than that measured by the Ca2+-ATPase assay (K0.5 = 0.4 microM). Possible reasons for this apparent difference are considered. Both active Ca2+ efflux and Ca2+-ATPase activity were reduced to less than 5% of maximal levels (20 mmol/liter cells.hr) in Mg2+-depleted cells, and completely restored by reintroduction of intracellular Mg2+. Active Ca2+ efflux was inhibited almost completely by raising external CaCl2 (but not MgCl2) to 20 mM, probably by interaction of Ca2+ at the externally oriented E2P conformation of the pump. Cd2+ was more potent than Ca2+ in this inhibition, while Mn2+ was less potent and 10 mM Ba2+ was without effect. A Ca2+: proton exchange mechanism for active Ca2+ efflux was supported by the results, as external protons (pH 6-6.5) stimulated active Ca2+ efflux at least twofold above the efflux rate at pH 7.8 Ca2+ transport was not affected by decreasing the membrane potential across the red cell.

Abstract
The role of the plasma membrane in the regulation of lens fiber cell cytosolic Ca2+ concentration has been examined using a vesicular preparation derived from calf lenses. Calcium accumulation by these vesicles was ATP dependent, and was releasable by the ionophore A23187, indicating that calcium was transported into a vesicular space. Calcium accumulation was stimulated by Ca2+ (K1/2 = 0.08 microM Ca2+) potassium (maximally at 50 mM K+), and cAMP-dependent protein kinase; it was inhibited by both vanadate (IC50 = 5 microM) and the calmodulin inhibitor R24571 (IC50 = 5 microM), indicating that this pump was plasma-membrane derived and likely calmodulin dependent. Valinomycin, in the presence of K+, stimulated calcium uptake, suggesting that the calcium pump either countertransports K+, or is regulated in an electrogenic fashion. Inhibition of calcium uptake by selenite and p-chloromercuribenzoate demonstrates the presence of an essential -SH group(s) in this enzyme. Calcium release from calcium-filled lens vesicles was enhanced by Na+, demonstrating that these vesicles also contain a Na:Ca exchange carrier. p-Chloromercuribenzoate and p-chloromercuribenzoate sulfonic acid also promoted calcium release from calcium-filled vesicles, suggesting that this release, like calcium uptake, is in part mediated by a cysteine-containing protein. We conclude that lens fiber cell cytosolic Ca2+ concentration could be regulated by a number of plasma membrane processes. The sensitivity of both calcium uptake and release to -SH reagents has implications in lens cataract formation, where oxidation of lens proteins has been proposed to account for the elevated cytosolic Ca2+ in this condition.

Abstract
In basolateral membrane vesicles (BLMV) isolated from rat parotid glands, the initial rate of ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport, in the presence of KCl, was approx. 2-fold higher than that obtained with mannitol, sucrose or N-methyl-D-glucamine (NMDG)-gluconate. Only NH4+, Rb+, or Br- could effectively substitute for K+ or Cl-, respectively. This KCl activation was concentration dependent, with maximal response by 50 mM KCl. An inwardly directed KCl gradient up to 50 mM KCl had no effect on Ca2+ transport, while equilibration of the vesicles with KCl (greater than 100 mM) increased transport 15-20%. In presence of Cl-, 86Rb+ uptake was 2.5-fold greater than in the presence of gluconate. 0.5 mM furosemide inhibited 86Rb+ flux by approx. 60% in a Cl- medium and by approx. 20% in a gluconate medium. Furosemide also inhibited KCl activation of Ca2+ transport with half maximal inhibition either at 0.4 mM or 0.05 mM, depending on whether 45Ca2+ transport was measured with KCl (150 mM) equilibrium or KCl (150 mM) gradient. In a mannitol containing assay medium, potassium gluconate loaded vesicles had a higher (approx. 25%) rate of Ca2+ transport than mannitol loaded vesicles. Addition of valinomycin (5 microM) to potassium gluconate loaded vesicles further stimulated (approx. 30%) the Ca2+ transport rate. These results suggest that during ATP dependent Ca2+ transport in parotid BLMV, K+ can be recycled by the concerted activities of a K+ and Cl- coupled flux and a K+ conductance.

Abstract
To evaluate the effect of luminal bicarbonate on calcium reabsorption, rat proximal tubules were perfused in vivo. Perfusion solution contained mannitol to reduce water flux to zero. Total Ca concentration was measured by atomic absorption spectrometry, Ca ion concentration in the tubule lumen (CaL2+) and the peritubular capillary (CaP2+), and luminal pH (pHL) with ion-selective microelectrodes and transepithelial voltage (VTE) with conventional microelectrodes. When tubules were perfused with buffer-free Cl-containing solution, net Ca absorption (JCa) averaged 3.33 pmol/min. Even though VTE was 1.64 mV lumen-positive, CaL2+, 1.05 mM, did not fall below the concentration in the capillary blood, 1.07 mM. When 27 mM of Cl was replaced with HCO3, there was luminal fluid acidification. Despite a decrease in VTE and CaL2+, JCa increased to 7.13 pmol/min, indicating that the enhanced JCa could not be accounted for by the reduced electrochemical gradient, delta CCa. When acetazolamide or an analogue of amiloride was added to the HCO3 solution, JCa was not different from the buffer-free solution, suggesting that HCO3-stimulated JCa may be linked to acidification. To further test this hypothesis, we used 27 mM Hepes as the luminal buffer. With Hepes there was luminal fluid acidification and JCa was not different from the buffer-free solution but delta CCa was significantly reduced, indicating enhanced active calcium transport. We conclude from the results of the present study that HCO3 stimulates active Ca absorption, a process that may be linked to acidification-mediated HCO3 absorption.

Abstract
The ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport activity (T. Takuma, B.L. Kuyatt and B.J. Baum, Biochem. J. 227:239-245, 1985) exhibited by inverted basolateral membrane vesicles isolated from rat parotid gland was further characterized. The activity was dependent on Mg2+. Phosphate (5 mM), but not oxalate (5 mM), increased maximum Ca2+ accumulation by 50%. Half-maximal Ca2+ transport was achieved at approximately 70 nM Ca2+ in EGTA-buffered medium while maximal activity required greater than 1 microM Ca2+ (Vmax = 54 nmol/mg protein/min). Optimal rates of Ca2+ transport were obtained in the presence of KCl, while in a KCl-free medium (mannitol or sucrose) approximately 40% of the total activity was achieved, which could not be stimulated by FCCP. The initial rate of Ca2+ transport could be significantly altered by preimposed membrane potentials generated by K+ gradients in the presence of valinomycin. Compared to the transport rate in the absence of membrane potential, a negative (interior) potential stimulated uptake by approximately 30%, while a positive (interior) potential inhibited uptake. Initial rates of Ca2+ uptake could also be altered by imposing pH gradients, in the absence of KCl. When compared to the initial rate of Ca2+ transport in the absence of a pH gradient, pHi = 7.5/pHo = 7.5; the activity was approximately 60% higher in the presence of an outwardly directed pH gradient, pHi = 7.5/pHo = 8.5; while it was approximately 80% lower when an inwardly directed pH gradient was imposed, pHi = 7.5/pHo = 6.2. The data show that the ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport in BLMV can be modulated by the membrane potential, suggesting therefore that there is a transfer of charge into the vesicle during Ca2+ uptake, which could be compensated by other ion movements.

Abstract
A systematic study was made of the action of 4-acet-amido-4'-isothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (SITS) and 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (DIDS) on active Ca2+ transport of human erythrocytes. Pumping activity was estimated in inside-out vesicles (IOV's) by means of Ca2+-selective electrodes or use of tracer 45Ca2+. The stilbenes exhibited an approximately equal inhibitory potency and their action could be overcome by carbonyl cyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone (FCCP) at low but not at high stilbene concentrations. In the absence of DIDS, Ca2+ transport was not affected upon addition of valinomycin, but it was appreciably reduced when vesicles were preincubated with low DIDS concentrations. Such an effect was strictly dependent on the external K+ concentration and it was abolished when valinomycin was added together with FCCP. Similar results were obtained using IOV's prepared from intact cells which had been previously exposed to the stilbene. The findings clearly demonstrate the presence in human red cells of a partially electrogenic Ca2+ pump, exchanging one Ca2+ ion for one proton.
