Abstract
The expression of the Huntingtin protein, well known for its involvement in the neurodegenerative Huntington's disease, has been confirmed in skeletal muscle. The impact of HTT deficiency was studied in human skeletal muscle cell lines and in a mouse model with inducible and muscle-specific HTT deletion. Characterization of calcium fluxes in the knock-out cell lines demonstrated a reduction in excitation-contraction (EC) coupling, related to an alteration in the coupling between the dihydropyridine receptor and the ryanodine receptor, and an increase in the amount of calcium stored within the sarcoplasmic reticulum, linked to the hyperactivity of store-operated calcium entry (SOCE). Immunoprecipitation experiments demonstrated an association of HTT with junctophilin 1 (JPH1) and stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1), both providing clues on the functional effects of HTT deletion on calcium fluxes. Characterization of muscle strength and muscle anatomy of the muscle-specific HTT-KO mice demonstrated that HTT deletion induced moderate muscle weakness and mild muscle atrophy associated with histological abnormalities, similar to the phenotype observed in tubular aggregate myopathy. Altogether, this study points toward the hypotheses of the involvement of HTT in EC coupling via its interaction with JPH1, and on SOCE via its interaction with JPH1 and/or STIM1.

Abstract
We review 50 years of use of 2',3'-O-trinitrophenyl (TNP)-ATP, a fluorescently tagged ATP analog. It has been extensively used to detect binding interactions of ATP to proteins and to measure parameters of those interactions such as the dissociation constant, Kd, or inhibitor dissociation constant, Ki. TNP-ATP has also found use in other applications, for example, as a fluorescence marker in microscopy, as a FRET pair, or as an antagonist (e.g., of P2X receptors). However, its use in protein binding studies has limitations because the TNP moiety often enhances binding affinity, and the fluorescence changes that occur with binding can be masked or mimicked in unexpected ways. The goal of this review is to provide a clear perspective of the pros and cons of using TNP-ATP to allow for better experimental design and less ambiguous data in future experiments using TNP-ATP and other TNP nucleotides.

Abstract
Mutations in the RYR1 gene, encoding the skeletal muscle calcium channel RyR1, lead to congenital myopathies, through expression of a channel with abnormal permeability and/or in reduced amount, but the direct functional whole organism consequences of exclusive reduction in RyR1 amount have never been studied. We have developed and characterized a mouse model with inducible muscle specific RYR1 deletion. Tamoxifen-induced recombination in the RYR1 gene at adult age resulted in a progressive reduction in the protein amount reaching a stable level of 50% of the initial amount, and was associated with a progressive muscle weakness and atrophy. Measurement of calcium fluxes in isolated muscle fibers demonstrated a reduction in the amplitude of RyR1-related calcium release mirroring the reduction in the protein amount. Alterations in the muscle structure were observed, with fibers atrophy, abnormal mitochondria distribution and membrane remodeling. An increase in the expression level of many proteins was observed, as well as an inhibition of the autophagy process. This model demonstrates that RyR1 reduction is sufficient to recapitulate most features of Central Core Disease, and accordingly similar alterations were observed in muscle biopsies from Dusty Core Disease patients (a subtype of Central Core Disease), pointing to common pathophysiological mechanisms related to RyR1 reduction.

Abstract
Homologous Recombination enables faithful repair of the deleterious double strand breaks of DNA. This pathway relies on Rad51 to catalyze homologous DNA strand exchange. Rad51 is known to be phosphorylated in a sequential manner on Y315 and then on Y54, but the effect of such phosphorylation on Rad51 function remains poorly understood. We have developed a phosphomimetic model in order to study all the phosphorylation states. With the purified phosphomimetic proteins we performed in vitro assays to determine the activity of Rad51. Here we demonstrate the inhibitory effect of the double phosphomimetic mutant and suggest that it may be due to a defect in nucleofilament formation.

Abstract
A recombinant Ca2+-ATPase nucleotide binding domain (N-domain) harboring the mutations Trp552Leu and Tyr587Trp was expressed and purified. Chemical modification by N-bromosuccinimide and fluorescence quenching by acrylamide showed that the displaced Trp residue was located at the N-domain surface and slightly exposed to solvent. Guanidine hydrochloride-mediated N-domain unfolding showed the low structural stability of the α6-loop-α7 motif (the new Trp location) located near the nucleotide binding site. The binding of nucleotides (free and in complex with Mg2+) to the engineered N-domain led to significant intrinsic fluorescence quenching (ΔFmax ∼ 30%) displaying a saturable hyperbolic pattern; the calculated affinities decreased in the following order: ATP > ADP = ADP-Mg2+ > ATP-Mg2+. Interestingly, it was found that Ca2+ binds to the N-domain as monitored by intrinsic fluorescence quenching (ΔFmax ∼ 12%) with a dissociation constant (Kd) of 50 μM. Notably, the presence of Ca2+ (200 μM) increased the ATP and ADP affinity but favored the binding of ATP over that of ADP. In addition, binding of ATP to the N-domain generated slight changes in secondary structure as evidenced by circular dichroism spectral changes. Molecular docking of ATP to the N-domain provided different binding modes that potentially might be the binding stages prior to γ-phosphate transfer. Finally, the nucleotide binding site was studied by fluorescein isothiocyanate labeling and molecular docking. The N-domain of Ca2+-ATPase performs structural dynamics upon Ca2+ and nucleotide binding. It is proposed that the increased affinity of the N-domain for ATP mediated by Ca2+ binding may be involved in Ca2+-ATPase activation under normal physiological conditions.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to study the plasma membrane calcium pump (PMCA) reaction cycle by characterizing conformational changes associated with calcium, ATP, and vanadate binding to purified PMCA. This was accomplished by studying the exposure of PMCA to surrounding phospholipids by measuring the incorporation of the photoactivatable phosphatidylcholine analog 1-O-hexadecanoyl-2-O-[9-[[[2-[(125)I]iodo-4-(trifluoromethyl-3H-diazirin-3-yl)benzyl]oxy]carbonyl]nonanoyl]-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine to the protein. ATP could bind to the different vanadate-bound states of the enzyme either in the presence or in the absence of Ca(2+) with high apparent affinity. Conformational movements of the ATP binding domain were determined using the fluorescent analog 2'(3')-O-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl)adenosine 5'-triphosphate. To assess the conformational behavior of the Ca(2+) binding domain, we also studied the occlusion of Ca(2+), both in the presence and in the absence of ATP and with or without vanadate. Results show the existence of occluded species in the presence of vanadate and/or ATP. This allowed the development of a model that describes the transport of Ca(2+) and its relation with ATP hydrolysis. This is the first approach that uses a conformational study to describe the PMCA P-type ATPase reaction cycle, adding important features to the classical E1-E2 model devised using kinetics methodology only.

Abstract
Triadin is a multiple proteins family, some isoforms being involved in muscle excitation-contraction coupling, and some having still unknown functions. To obtain clues on triadin functions, we engineered a triadin knock-out mouse line and characterized the physiological effect of triadin ablation on skeletal muscle function. These mice presented a reduced muscle strength, which seemed not to alter their survival and has been characterized in the present work. We first checked in these mice the expression level of the different proteins involved in calcium homeostasis and observed in fast muscles an increase in expression of dihydropyridine receptor, with a large reduction in calsequestrin expression. Electron microscopy analysis of KO muscles morphology demonstrated the presence of triads in abnormal orientation and a reduction in the sarcoplasmic reticulum terminal cisternae volume. Using calcium imaging on cultured myotubes, we observed a reduction in the total amount of calcium stored in the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Physiological studies have been performed to evaluate the influence of triadin deletion on skeletal muscle function. Muscle strength has been measured both on the whole animal model, using hang test or electrical stimulation combined with NMR analysis and strength measurement, or on isolated muscle using electrical stimulation. All the results obtained demonstrate an important reduction in muscle strength, indicating that triadin plays an essential role in skeletal muscle function and in skeletal muscle structure. These results indicate that triadin alteration leads to the development of a myopathy, which could be studied using this new animal model.

Abstract
P-type ATPases are ubiquitously abundant primary ion pumps, which are capable of transporting cations across the cell membrane at the expense of ATP. Since these ions comprise a large variety of vital biochemical functions, nature has developed rather sophisticated transport machineries in all kingdoms of life. Due to the importance of these enzymes, representatives of both eu- and prokaryotic as well as archaeal P-type ATPases have been studied intensively, resulting in detailed structural and functional information on their mode of action. During catalysis, P-type ATPases cycle between the so-called E1 and E2 states, each of which comprising different structural properties together with different binding affinities for both ATP and the transport substrate. Crucial for catalysis is the reversible phosphorylation of a conserved aspartate, which is the main trigger for the conformational changes within the protein. In contrast to the well-studied and closely related eukaryotic P-type ATPases, much less is known about their homologues in bacteria. Whereas in Eukarya there is predominantly only one subunit, which builds up the transport system, in bacteria there are multiple polypeptides involved in the formation of the active enzyme. Such a rather unusual prokaryotic P-type ATPase is the KdpFABC complex of the enterobacterium Escherichia coli, which serves as a highly specific K(+) transporter. A unique feature of this member of P-type ATPases is that catalytic activity and substrate transport are located on two different polypeptides. This review compares generic features of P-type ATPases with the rather unique KdpFABC complex and gives a comprehensive overview of common principles of catalysis as well as of special aspects connected to distinct enzyme functions.

Abstract
Large cytoplasmic domain (LCD) plasma membrane H+ -ATPase from S. cerevisiae was expressed as two fusion polypeptides in E. coli: a DNA sequence coding for Leu353-Ileu674 (LCDh), comprising both nucleotide (N) and phosphorylation (P) domains, and a DNA sequence coding for Leu353-Thr543 (LCDDeltah, lacking the C-terminus of P domain), were inserted in expression vectors pDEST-17, yielding the respective recombinant plasmids. Overexpressed fusion polypeptides were solubilized with 6 M urea and purified on affinity columns, and urea was removed by dialysis. Their predicted secondary structure contents were confirmed by CD spectra. In addition, both recombinant polypeptides exhibited high-affinity 2',3'-O-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl)adenosine-5'-triphosphate (TNP-ATP) binding (Kd = 1.9 microM and 2.9 microM for LCDh and LCDDeltah, respectively), suggesting that they have native-like folding. The gel filtration profile (HPLC) of purified LCDh showed two main peaks, with molecular weights of 95 kDa and 39 kDa, compatible with dimeric and monomeric forms, respectively. However, a single elution peak was observed for purified LCDDeltah, with an estimated molecular weight of 29 kDa, as expected for a monomer. Together, these data suggest that LCDh exist in monomer-dimer equilibrium, and that the C-terminus of P domain is necessary for self-association. We propose that such association is due to interaction between vicinal P domains, which may be of functional relevance for H+ -ATPase in native membranes. We discuss a general dimeric model for P-ATPases with interacting P domains, based on published crystallography and cryo-electron microscopy evidence.

Abstract
P-type ATPases are amongst the most abundant enzymes that are responsible for active transport of ions across biological membranes. Within the last 5 years a detailed picture of the structure and function of these transport ATPases has emerged. Here, we report on the recent progress in elucidating the molecular mechanism of a unique, prokaryotic member of P-type ATPases, the Kdp-ATPase. The review focuses on the catalytic parts of the central subunit, KdpB. The structure of the nucleotide-binding domain was solved by NMR spectroscopy at high resolution and a model of the nucleotide-binding mode was presented. The nucleotide turned out to be 'clipped' into the binding pocket by a pi-pi interaction to F377 on one side and a cation-pi interaction to K395 on the other. The 395KGXXD/E motif and thus the nucleotide-binding mode seems to be conserved in all P-type ATPases, except the heavy metal-transporting (class IB) ATPases. Hence, it can be concluded that KdpB is currently misgrouped as class IA. Mutational studies on two highly conserved residues (D583 and K586) in the transmembrane helix 5 of KdpB revealed that they are indispensable in coupling ATP hydrolysis to ion translocation. Based on these results, two possible pathways for the reaction cycle are discussed.

Abstract
Within the large family of P-type cation-transporting ATPases, members differ in the number of C-terminal transmembrane helices, ranging from two in Cu2+-ATPases to six in H+-, Na+,K+-, Mg2+-, and Ca2+-ATPases. In this study, yeast Pma1 H+-ATPase has served as a model to examine the role of the C-terminal membrane domain in ATPase stability and targeting to the plasma membrane. Successive truncations were constructed from the middle of the major cytoplasmic loop to the middle of the extended cytoplasmic tail, adding back the C-terminal membrane-spanning helices one at a time. When the resulting constructs were expressed transiently in yeast, there was a steady increase in half-life from 70 min in Pma1 delta452 to 348 min in Pma1 delta901, but even the longest construct was considerably less stable than wild-type ATPase (t(1/2) = 11 h). Confocal immunofluorescence microscopy showed that 11 of 12 constructs were arrested in the endoplasmic reticulum and degraded in the proteasome. The only truncated ATPase that escaped the ER, Pma1 delta901, traveled slowly to the plasma membrane, where it hydrolyzed ATP and supported growth. Limited trypsinolysis showed Pma1 delta901 to be misfolded, however, resulting in premature delivery to the vacuole for degradation. As model substrates, this series of truncations affirms the importance of the entire C-terminal domain to yeast H+-ATPase biogenesis and defines a sequence element of 20 amino acids in the carboxyl tail that is critical to ER escape and trafficking to the plasma membrane.

Abstract
The P-type ATPases translocate cations across membranes using the energy provided by ATP hydrolysis. CopA from Archaeoglobus fulgidus is a hyperthermophilic ATPase responsible for the cellular export of Cu+ and is a member of the heavy metal P1B-type ATPase subfamily, which includes the related Wilson and Menkes diseases proteins. The Cu+-ATPases are distinct from their P-type counter-parts in ion binding sequences, membrane topology, and the presence of cytoplasmic metal binding domains, suggesting that they employ alternate forms of regulation and novel mechanisms of ion transport. To gain insight into Cu+-ATPase function, the structure of the CopA ATP binding domain (ATPBD) was determined to 2.3 A resolution. Similar to other P-type ATPases, the ATPBD includes nucleotide binding (N-domain) and phosphorylation (P-domain) domains. The ATPBD adopts a closed conformation similar to the nucleotide-bound forms of the Ca2+-ATPase. The CopA ATPBD is much smaller and more compact, however, revealing the minimal elements required for ATP binding, hydrolysis, and enzyme phosphorylation. Structural comparisons to the AMP-PMP-bound form of the Escherichia coli K+-transporting Kdp-ATPase and to the Wilson disease protein N-domain indicate that the five conserved N-domain residues found in P1B-type ATPases, but not in the other families, most likely participate in ATP binding. By contrast, the P-domain includes several residues conserved among all P-type ATPases. Finally, the CopA ATPBD structure provides a basis for understanding the likely structural and functional effects of various mutations that lead to Wilson and Menkes diseases.

Abstract
The large cytoplasmic domain (H4H5) of KdpB of the KdpFABC complex (P-type ATPase) from Escherichia coli consists of two separate modules, the phosphorylation domain (KdpBP) and the nucleotide binding domain (KdpBN). The H4H5 and the KdpBN domains were purified as soluble 10His-tagged fusion proteins. Both proteins exhibit a mainly alpha-helical secondary structure as judged by CD spectroscopy. Fluorescein 5-isothiocyanate (FITC) labeling studies revealed that both proteins form a proper nucleotide binding site. Adenosine nucleotides protect the H4H5 loop but not KdpBN against FITC modification. Trinitrophenyl (TNP)-nucleotide binding studies revealed that both H4H5 and KdpBN bind nucleotides with high affinity. Furthermore, the H4H5 loop was still able to hydrolyze ATP, as well as p-nitrophenyl phosphate (pNPP). These results lend support to the notion that the separately synthesized H4H5 and KdpBN domains retain their native structure and that they reveal properties of both P2-type ATPases (e.g., Na(+),K(+)-ATPase and Ca(2+)-ATPase) and P1b-type ATPases (e.g., heavy metal transporting ATPases). Furthermore, this report also emphasizes the unique position of the Kdp-ATPase within the P-type ATPase family.

Abstract
P-type ATPases are involved in the active transport of ions across biological membranes. The KdpFABC complex (P-type ATPase) of Escherichia coli is a high-affinity K+ uptake system that operates only when the cell experiences osmotic stress or K+ limitation. Here, we present the solution structure of the nucleotide binding domain of KdpB (backbone RMSD 0.17 A) and a model of the AMP-PNP binding mode based on intermolecular distance restraints. The calculated AMP-PNP binding mode shows the purine ring of the nucleotide to be "clipped" into the binding pocket via a pi-pi-interaction to F377 on one side and a cation-pi-interaction to K395 on the other. This binding mechanism seems to be conserved in all P-type ATPases, except the heavy metal transporting ATPases (type IB). Thus, we conclude that the Kdp-ATPase (currently type IA) is misgrouped and has more similarities to type III ATPases. The KdpB N-domain is the smallest and simplest known for a P-type ATPase, and represents a minimal example of this functional unit. No evidence of significant conformational changes was observed within the N-domain upon nucleotide binding, thus ruling out a role for ATP-induced conformational changes in the reaction cycle.

Abstract
The KdpFABC complex of Escherichia coli, which belongs to the P-type ATPase family, has a unique structure, since catalytic activity (KdpB) and the capacity to transport potassium ions (KdpA) are located on different subunits. We found that fluorescein 5-isothiocyanate (FITC) inhibits ATPase activity, probably by covalently modifying lysine 395 in KdpB. In addition, we observed that the KdpFABC complex is able to hydrolyze p-nitrophenyl phosphate (pNPP) in a Mg(2+)-dependent reaction. The pNPPase activity is inhibited by FITC and o-vanadate. Low concentrations of ATP (1-30 microM) stimulate the pNPPase activity, while concentrations of >500 microM are inhibitory. This behavior can be explained either by a regulatory ATP binding site, where ATP hydrolysis is required, or by proposing an interactive dimer. The notion that FITC inhibits pNPPase and ATPase activity supports the idea that the catalytic domain of KdpB is much more compact than other P-type ATPases, like Na(+),K(+)-ATPase, H(+),K(+)-ATPase, and Ca(2+)-ATPase.

Abstract
Fluorescent and colored trinitrophenylated (TNP) analogs of ATP and GTP can interact with nucleotide-requiring enzymes and proteins as a substitute for the parent nucleotide. These analogs have strong binding affinities for most nucleotide-requiring systems. Their bindings are easily detected by absorption and fluorescence changes in the visible region. Recent years have seen dramatic developments in the application of the TNP nucleotide analogs as spectroscopic probes for the study on the nucleotide-interacting properties of various enzymes and proteins including their mutants. This review is intended as a broad overview of currently extensively used applications of the nucleotide analogs in various biological systems.

Abstract
TraG-like proteins are essential components of type IV secretion systems. During secretion, TraG is thought to translocate defined substrates through the inner cell membrane. The energy for this transport is presumably delivered by its potential nucleotide hydrolase (NTPase) activity. TraG of conjugative plasmid RP4 is a membrane-anchored oligomer that binds RP4 relaxase and DNA. TrwB (R388) is a hexameric TraG-like protein that binds ATP. Both proteins, however, lack NTPase activity under in vitro conditions. We characterized derivatives of TraG and TrwB truncated by the N-terminal membrane anchor (TraGdelta2 and TrwBdelta1) and/or containing a point mutation at the putative nucleotide-binding site (TraGdelta2K187T and TraGK187T). Unlike TraG and TrwB, truncated derivatives behaved as monomers without the tendency to form oligomers or aggregates. Surface plasmon resonance analysis with immobilized relaxase showed that mutant TraGK187T was as good a binding partner as the wild-type protein, whereas truncated TraG monomers were unable to bind relaxase. TraGdelta2 and TrwBdelta1 bound ATP and, with similar affinity, ADP. Binding of ATP and ADP was strongly inhibited by the presence of Mg(2+) or single-stranded DNA and was competed for by other nucleotides. Compared to the activity of TraGdelta2, the ATP- and ADP-binding activity of the point mutation derivative TraGdelta2K187T was significantly reduced. Each TraG derivative bound DNA with an affinity similar to that of the native protein. DNA binding was inhibited or competed for by ATP, ADP, and, most prominently, Mg(2+). Thus, both nucleotide binding and DNA binding were sensitive to Mg(2+) and were competitive with respect to each other.

Abstract
The Methanocaldococcus jannaschii (formerly Methanococcus jannaschii) protein Mj0968 has been reported to represent a soluble P-type ATPase [Ogawa et al., FEBS Lett. 471 (2000) 99-102]. In this study, we report that the heterologously expressed Mj0968-His(10) protein exhibits high rates of phosphatase activity, whereas only very low ATPase activity was measured. Replacement of the aspartate residue in the DSAGT motif (D7A), which becomes phosphorylated during the reaction cycle of P-type ATPases, does not affect the V(max), but only the K(M) of the reaction. Labeling studies with [gamma-(32)P]ATP and [alpha-(32)P]ATP revealed that the previously reported labeling experiments [Ogawa et al., 2000] do not necessarily show phosphorylation of Mj0968, but rather point to ATP binding. Binding studies with trinitrophenyl adenosine nucleotides showed low apparent K(d) values for those molecules. These results provide evidence that the native function of Mj0968 seems to be that of a phosphatase, rather than that of an ATP-hydrolyzing enzyme.

Abstract
The reaction mechanism of the Na,K-ATPase is thought to involve a number of ligand-induced conformational changes. The specific amino acid residues responsible for binding many of the important ligands have been identified; however, details of the specific conformational changes produced by ligand binding are largely undescribed. The experiments described in this paper begin to identify interactions between domains of the Na,K-ATPase alpha-subunit that depend on the presence of particular ligands. The major cytoplasmic loop (between TM4 and TM5), which we have previously shown contains the ATP-binding domain, was overexpressed in bacteria either with a His(6) tag or as a fusion protein with glutathione S-transferase. We have observed that these polypeptides associate in the presence of MgATP. Incubation with [gamma-(32)P]ATP under conditions that result in phosphorylation of the full-length Na,K-ATPase did not result in (32)P incorporation into either the His(6) tag or glutathione S-transferase fusion proteins. The MgATP-induced association was strongly inhibited by prior modification of the fusion proteins with fluorescein isothiocyanate or by simultaneous incubation with 10 microm eosin, indicating that the effect of MgATP is due to interactions within the nucleotide-binding domain. These data are consistent with Na,K-ATPase associating within cells via interactions in the nucleotide-binding domains. Although any functional significance of these associations for ion transport remains unresolved, they may play a role in cell function and in modulating interactions between the Na,K-ATPase and other proteins.

Abstract
ATP-sensitive potassium (K(ATP)) channels are expressed in many excitable, as well as epithelial, cells and couple metabolic changes to modulation of cell activity. ATP regulation of K(ATP) channel activity may involve direct binding of this nucleotide to the pore-forming inward rectifier (Kir) subunit despite the lack of known nucleotide-binding motifs. To examine this possibility, we assessed the binding of the fluorescent ATP analogue, 2',3'-O-(2,4,6-trinitrophenylcyclo-hexadienylidene)adenosine 5'-triphosphate (TNP-ATP) to maltose-binding fusion proteins of the NH(2)- and COOH-terminal cytosolic regions of the three known K(ATP) channels (Kir1.1, Kir6.1, and Kir6.2) as well as to the COOH-terminal region of an ATP-insensitive inward rectifier K(+) channel (Kir2.1). We show direct binding of TNP-ATP to the COOH termini of all three known K(ATP) channels but not to the COOH terminus of the ATP-insensitive channel, Kir2.1. TNP-ATP binding was specific for the COOH termini of K(ATP) channels because this nucleotide did not bind to the NH(2) termini of Kir1.1 or Kir6.1. The affinities for TNP-ATP binding to K(ATP) COOH termini of Kir1.1, Kir6.1, and Kir6.2 were similar. Binding was abolished by denaturing with 4 m urea or SDS and enhanced by reduction in pH. TNP-ATP to protein stoichiometries were similar for all K(ATP) COOH-terminal proteins with 1 mol of TNP-ATP binding/mole of protein. Competition of TNP-ATP binding to the Kir1.1 COOH terminus by MgATP was complex with both Mg(2+) and MgATP effects. Glutaraldehyde cross-linking demonstrated the multimerization potential of these COOH termini, suggesting that these cytosolic segments may directly interact in intact tetrameric channels. Thus, the COOH termini of K(ATP) tetrameric channels contain the nucleotide-binding pockets of these metabolically regulated channels with four potential nucleotide-binding sites/channel tetramer.

Abstract
We describe here a protocol to prepare milligrams of active and stable heterologous sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase (Serca1a). Serca1a was tagged with 6 histidines at its C-terminal end and overexpressed using the baculovirus-Sf9 system. In a first trial, Serca1a accounted for 24% of membrane proteins, 95% of which were inactive. Glucose in the culture medium reduced the production of Serca1a to 3 to 5% of membrane proteins and all Serca1a was active. Seventy-five percent of active Serca1a was solubilized by C(12)E(8) in the presence of phosphatidylcholine under conditions avoiding denaturation. Purification by Ni(2+)-nitrilo-triacetic acid affinity chromatography was tried, but only 3% of active Serca1a remained bound to the column, as if the His-tag were not accessible. Yields of 43% were reached by purification on reactive red 120 columns when eluting with 2 M NaCl. The purity was about 25% and Serca1a was stable for at least 1 week at 0 degrees C. Typically, 500 ml of culture medium produced 3 mg of active Serca1a and 1 mg of purified active Serca1a allowing measurements of phosphoenzyme (2 nmol/mg) or Ca(2+) affinity (2 microM at pH 7).

Abstract
Wilson's disease, an autosomal disorder associated with vast accumulation of copper in tissues, is caused by mutations in a gene encoding a copper-transporting ATPase (Wilson's disease protein, WNDP). Numerous mutations have been identified throughout the WNDP sequence, particularly in the Lys(1010)-Lys(1325) segment; however, the biochemical properties and molecular mechanism of WNDP remain poorly characterized. Here, the Lys(1010)-Lys(1325) fragment of WNDP was overexpressed, purified, and shown to form an independently folded ATP-binding domain (ATP-BD). ATP-BD binds the fluorescent ATP analogue trinitrophenyl-ATP with high affinity, and ATP competes with trinitrophenyl-ATP for the binding site; ADP and AMP appear to bind to ATP-BD at the site separate from ATP. Purified ATP-BD hydrolyzes ATP and interacts specifically with the N-terminal copper-binding domain of WNDP (N-WNDP). Strikingly, copper binding to N-WNDP diminishes these interactions, suggesting that the copper-dependent change in domain-domain contact may represent the mechanism of WNDP regulation. In agreement with this hypothesis, N-WNDP induces conformational changes in ATP-BD as evidenced by the altered nucleotide binding properties of ATP-BD in the presence of N-WNDP. Significantly, the effects of copper-free and copper-bound N-WNDP on ATP-BD are not identical. The implications of these results for the WNDP function are discussed.

Abstract
Maleimidylsalicylic acid reacts with the Ca(2+)-ATPase of skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum with high affinity and inhibits the ATPase activity following a pseudo-first-order kinetic with a rate constant of 8.3 m(-1) s(-1). Calcium binding remains unaffected in the maleimide-inhibited ATPase. However, the presence of ATP, ADP, and, to a lesser extent, AMP protects the enzyme against inhibition. Furthermore, ATPase inhibition is accompanied by a concomitant decrease in ATP binding. The stoichiometry of the nucleotide-dependent maleimidylsalicylic acid binding is 6-10 nmol/mg ATPase, which corresponds to the binding of up to one molecule of maleimide/molecule of ATPase. The stoichiometry of maleimide binding is decreased in the presence of nucleotides and in the ATPase previously labeled with fluorescein-5'-isothiocyanate or N-ethylmaleimide A fluorescent peptide was isolated by high performance liquid chromatography after trypsin digestion of the maleimide-labeled ATPase. Analysis of the sequence and mass spectrometry of the peptide leads us to propose Cys(344) as the target for maleimidylsalicylic acid in the inhibition reaction. The effect of Cys(344) modification on the nucleotide site is discussed.

Abstract
The highly conserved motif +(534)DPPR of Saccharomyces cerevisiae H(+)-ATPase, located in the putative ATP binding site, has been mutagenized and the resulting 23 mutant genes conditionally expressed in secretory vesicles. Fourteen mutant ATPases (D534A, D534V, D534L, D534N, D534G, D534T, P535A, P535V, P535L, P535G, P535T, P535E, P535K and R537T) failed to reach the secretory vesicles. Of these mutants, nine (D534N, D534T, P535A, P535V, P535L, P535G, P535T, P535E and P535K) were not detected in total cellular membranes, and five (D534A, D534V, D534G, D534L and R537T) were retained at the endoplasmic reticulum and exhibited a dominant lethal phenotype. The remaining mutants (D534E, R537A, R537V, R537L, R537N, R537G, R537E, R537K and R537H) reached the secretory vesicles at levels similar to that of the wild type. Of these, six (R537A, R537V, R537L, R537N, R537G, and R537E) showed severely decreased ATPase activity compared to the wild type enzyme, and three (D534E, R537K and R537H) rendered an enzyme with an altered K(m) for ATP.

Abstract
The large cytoplasmic domain of rabbit sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase was overexpressed in Escherichia coli as a 48 kDa fusion protein, designated p48, containing an N-terminal hexa-His tag. Purification conditions were optimized, thus conferring long-term stability to p48. Circular dichroism spectroscopy and the pattern of limited trypsinolysis confirmed the proper folding of the domain. p48 retained 0.5 +/- 0.1 mol of high affinity 2',3'-O-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl)adenosine-5'-triphosphate (TNP-ATP) binding sites per mol of polypeptide chain with an apparent dissociation constant of about 8 microM. Size-exclusion FPLC using protein concentrations in the range 0.03 5 mg/ml showed that p48 was essentially monodisperse with apparent molecular mass and Stokes radius (Rs) values compatible with a dimer (100 kDa and 40 A, respectively). Analysis of p48 by small-angle X-ray scattering provided an independent second proof for a dimeric p48 particle with a radius of gyration (Rg) of 39 A, suggesting that the dimer was not spherical (Rs/Rg = 1.026). When digested by proteinase K, p48 was converted to a 30 kDa fragment, designated p30, which was very resistant to further proteolysis. p30 retained high affinity TNP-ATP binding (Kd = 8 microM) and eluted as a monomer (35 kDa) in size-exclusion FPLC. As opposed to p48, the p30 fragment did not react with monoclonal antibody A52 [Clarke et al., J. Biol. Chem. 264 (1989) 11246-11251] which recognizes region E657-R672 located upstream of the hinge domain of the Ca2+-ATPase. These results indicate a requirement of the hinge domain (670-728) region for self-association of the p48 large hydrophilic domain as a dimer. We propose that this behavior points to a possible role of the hinge domain in dimerization of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase in the native membrane.

Abstract
MJ0968 has been proposed to be an ancestor of P-type ATPase, because its primary structure is highly homologous to that of the core catalytic domain of P-type ATPase. However it completely lacks amino acid sequences that possibly constitute transmembrane domains. To examine if MJ0968 is indeed a P-type ATPase, it was overexpressed in Escherichia coli and purified. It did show ATPase activity, autophosphorylation and inhibition by vanadate. All these properties support the idea that MJ0968 is indeed a soluble P-type ATPase.

Abstract
The structural-functional roles of 23 cysteines present in the sheep (Na,K)-ATPase alpha1 subunit were studied using site directed mutagenesis, expression, and kinetics analysis. Twenty of these cysteines were individually substituted by alanine or serine. Cys452, Cys455 and Cys456 were simultaneously replaced by serine. These substitutions were introduced into an ouabain resistant alpha1 sheep isoform and expressed in HeLa cells under ouabain selective pressure. HeLa cells transfected with a cDNA encoding for replacements of Cys242 did not survive ouabain selective pressure. Single substitutions of the remaining cysteines yielded functional enzymes, although some had reduced turnover rates. Only minor variations were observed in the enzyme Na(+) and K(+) dependence as a result of these replacements. Some substitutions apparently affect the E1<-->E2 equilibrium as suggested by changes in the K(m) of ATP acting at its low affinity binding site. These results indicate that individual cysteines, with the exception of Cys242, are not essential for enzyme function. Furthermore, this suggests that the presence of putative disulfide bridges is not required for alpha1 subunit folding and subsequent activity. A (Na,K)-ATPase lacking cysteine residues in the transmembrane region was constructed (Cys104, 138, 336, 802, 911, 930, 964, 983Xxx). No alteration in the K(1/2) of Na(+) or K(+) for (Na,K)-ATPase activation was observed in the resulting enzyme, although it showed a 50% reduction in turnover rate. ATP binding at the high affinity site was not affected. However, a displacement in the E1<-->E2 equilibrium toward the E1 form was indicated by a small decrease in the K(m) of ATP at the low affinity site accompanied by an increase in IC(50) for vanadate inhibition. Thus, the transmembrane cysteine-deficient (Na,K)-ATPase appears functional with no critical alteration in its interactions with physiological ligands.

Abstract
Fusion proteins of glutathione-S-transferase and fragments from the large cytoplasmic domain of the sheep Na,K-ATPase alpha1-subunit were expressed in Escherichia coli. The Na,K-ATPase sequences begin at Ala345 and terminate at either Arg600 (DP600f), Thr610 (DP610f), Gly731 (DP731f), or Glu779 (DP779f). After affinity purification on glutathione-Sepharose, the fusion proteins were labeled with [alpha-32P]-2-N3-ATP, and incorporation of the radiolabel into the fusion proteins was measured by scintillation counting after sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Kd values of 220-290 microM for 2-N3-ATP binding to the fusion proteins were obtained from the photolabeling experiments. Approximately 1 mol of 2-N3-ATP was calculated to be incorporated per mole of fusion protein after correction for photochemical incorporation efficiency. Labeling of all of the fusion proteins by 25 microM 2-N3-ATP was reduced in the presence of MgATP, Na2ATP, MgCl2, 2',3'-O-(2,4, 6-trinitrophenyl)-ATP, and p-nitrophenylphosphate, and Ki values of 2-11 mM for Na2ATP, 0.2-5 mM for MgCl2, 0.1-5 mM for MgATP, and 20-300 microM for p-nitrophenylphosphate were calculated for these ligands. All of the fusion proteins catalyze the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenylphosphate. The reaction requires MgCl2 and is inhibited by inorganic phosphate, which is similar to the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenylphosphate by native Na,K-ATPase. Based on these observations, it appears that the soluble fragments from the large cytoplasmic domain of Na,K-ATPase expressed in bacterial cells are folded in an E2-like conformation and are likely to retain much of the native structure.

Abstract
The integral membrane protein, the gastric H,K-ATPase, is an alpha-beta heterodimer, with 10 putative transmembrane segments in the alpha-subunit and one such segment in the beta-subunit. All transmembrane segments remain within the membrane domain following trypsinization of the intact gastric H,K-ATPase in the presence of K+ ions, identified as M1M2, M3M4, M5M6, and M7, M8, M9, and M10. Removal of K+ ions from this digested preparation results in the selective loss of the M5M6 hairpin from the membrane. The release of the M5M6 fragment is directed to the extracellular phase as evidenced by the accumulation of the released M5M6 hairpin inside the sealed inside out vesicles. The stabilization of the M5M6 hairpin in the membrane phase by the transported cation as well as loss to the aqueous phase in the absence of the transported cation has been previously observed for another P2-type ATPase, the Na, K-ATPase (Lutsenko, S., Anderko, R., and Kaplan, J. H. (1995) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 92, 7936-7940). Thus, the effects of the counter-transported cation on retention of the M5M6 segment in the membrane as compared with the other membrane pairs may be a general feature of P2-ATPase ion pumps, reflecting a flexibility of this region that relates to the mechanism of transport.

Abstract
SERCA1a, the fast-twitch skeletal muscle isoform of sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase, was expressed in yeast using the promoter of the plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase. In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the Golgi PMR1 Ca(2+)-ATPase and the vacuole PMC1 Ca(2+)-ATPase function together in Ca2+ sequestration and Ca2+ tolerance. SERCA1a expression restored growth of pmc1 mutants in media containing high Ca2+ concentrations, consistent with increased Ca2+ uptake in an internal compartment. SERCA1a expression also prevented synthetic lethality of pmr1 pmc1 double mutants on standard media. Electron microscopy and subcellular fractionation analysis showed that SERCA1a was localized in intracellular membranes derived from the endoplasmic reticulum. Finally, we found that SERCA1a ATPase activity expressed in yeast was regulated by calcineurin, a Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent phosphoprotein phosphatase. This result indicates that calcineurin contributes to calcium homeostasis by modulating the ATPase activity of Ca2+ pumps localized in intra-cellular compartments.

Abstract
ATP binding to the large tumor (T) antigen encoded by the simian virus 40 (SV40) genome plays an essential role in the replication of viral DNA [Fanning, E., and Knippers, R. (1992) Annu. Rev. Biochem. 61, 55-85]. To better explore the functions of T antigen during the replication process, we have studied the interactions of T antigen with fluorescent 3'(2')-O-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl) (TNP) adenine nucleotide analogues. Binding of TNP-ATP and TNP-ADP was accompanied by an 8-fold fluorescence enhancement and a concomitant blue shift (11 nm) of the maximal emission wavelength; the intrinsic protein tryptophan fluorescence was quenched maximally by 50%. Both signals were utilized to characterize the nucleotide binding activity of T antigen. TNP-ATP and TNP-ADP bound to the ATP binding site with dissociation constants of 0.35 microM and 2.6 microM. TNP substitution enhanced the affinity of ADP for T antigen by approximately 11-fold. The binding stoichiometry was 1 mol of TNP nucleotide per mole of monomer T antigen. The binding of TNP-ATP was more temperature dependent than that of TNP-ADP. The enthalpy change contributed nearly half of the energy for TNP-ATP binding, whereas binding of TNP-ADP was primarily entropy driven. Both TNP-ATP and TNP-ADP were strong inhibitors of the T antigen ATPase activity, confirming the high affinities of the TNP nucleotides for the ATP binding site. Like the parent nucleotides, they also induced T antigen hexamer formation. Using the TNP nucleotides as fluorescent probes, we have measured the affinity of various nucleotides and analogues for T antigen. The results indicate that the nucleotide binding specificity of T antigen was similar to that of the prokaryotic helicases Dna B and Rep, suggesting closely related ATP binding sites in the three DNA helicases.

Abstract
The yeast Ca2+ adenosine triphosphatase Pmr1, located in medial-Golgi, has been implicated in intracellular transport of Ca2+ and Mn2+ ions. We show here that addition of Mn2+ greatly alleviates defects of pmr1 mutants in N-linked and O-linked protein glycosylation. In contrast, accurate sorting of carboxypeptidase Y (CpY) to the vacuole requires a sufficient supply of intralumenal Ca2+. Most remarkably, pmr1 mutants are also unable to degrade CpY*, a misfolded soluble endoplasmic reticulum protein, and display phenotypes similar to mutants defective in the stress response to malfolded endoplasmic reticulum proteins. Growth inhibition of pmr1 mutants on Ca2+-deficient media is overcome by expression of other Ca2+ pumps, including a SERCA-type Ca2+ adenosine triphosphatase from rabbit, or by Vps10, a sorting receptor guiding non-native luminal proteins to the vacuole. Our analysis corroborates the dual function of Pmr1 in Ca2+ and Mn2+ transport and establishes a novel role of this secretory pathway pump in endoplasmic reticulum-associated processes.

Abstract
The H4-H5 loop of the alpha-subunit of mouse brain Na,K-ATPase was expressed and isolated from Escherichia coli cells. Using fluorescence analogues of ATP, this loop was shown to retain its capability to bind ATP. Isolation of a soluble H4-H5 loop with the native ATP binding site is a crucial step for detailed studies of the molecular mechanism of ATP binding and utilisation.

Abstract
Escherichia coli was used to overexpress the large cytoplasmic loop of the rat Na,K-ATPase. A 1260-base DNA segment encoding Lys354-Lys774 of the rat alpha1-subunit was constructed via polymerase chain reaction. The polymerase chain reaction product was successfully subcloned into the expression vector pET-28 (Novagen), which produces an N-terminal 6-histidine-tagged fusion protein. The pET-28 vector containing rat alpha-loop, i.e. pAN, was used to transform calcium-competent E. coli BL21(DE3) cells, and positive clones were selected by kanamycin resistance. Bacterial cultures were grown, and protein synthesis was induced with isopropyl beta-D-thiogalactoside. Cells were harvested and lysed, revealing production of the His-tagged fusion protein ( approximately 46 kDa). The fusion protein was affinity-purified from other soluble cellular proteins via a Ni-NTA column, which routinely yielded approximately 20 mg of soluble His6-alpha-loop/L cell culture. The His6-alpha-loop retained significant native structure, as evidenced by the ability of ATP and ADP (but not AMP, CTP, GTP, or UTP) to protect against chemical modification by either fluorescein isothiocyanate or maleimidylanilinonapthalene sulfonic acid. More specifically, circular dichroism spectroscopy was used to estimate the secondary structure of the His6 loop, revealing an ordered folding composed of 23% alpha-helix, 23% antiparallel beta-sheet, 4% parallel beta-sheet, 19% beta-turn, and 32% random coil. The 6-histidine loop bound the fluorescent ATP analog trinitrophenyl-ATP with high affinity, as determined by measuring the fluorescence changes associated with binding. Affinities for ATP ( approximately 350 microM) and ADP ( approximately 550 microM) were determined by their ability to compete with and displace 2',3'-O-[2,4,6,-trinitrophenyl]-ATP. These nucleotide affinities are similar to those observed for the E2 conformation of the intact Na,K-ATPase.

Abstract
Treatment of rabbit sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase with a variety of proteases, including elastase, proteinase K, and endoproteinases Asp-N and Glu-C, results in accumulation of soluble fragments starting close to the ATPase phosphorylation site Asp351 and ending in the Lys605-Arg615 region, well before the conserved sequences generally described as constituting the "hinge" region of this P-type ATPase (residues 670-760). These fragments, designated as p29/30, presumably originate from a relatively compact domain of the cytoplasmic head of the ATPase. They retain two structural characteristics of intact Ca2+-ATPase as follows: high sensitivity of peptidic bond Arg505-Ala506 to trypsin cleavage, and high reactivity of lysine residue Lys515 toward the fluorescent label fluorescein 5'-isothiocyanate. Regarding functional properties, these fragments retain the ability to bind nucleotides, although with reduced affinity compared with intact Ca2+-ATPase. The fragments also bind Nd3+ ions, leaving open the possibility that these fragments could contain the metal-binding site(s) responsible for the inhibitory effect of lanthanide ions on ATPase activity. The p29/30 soluble domain, like similar proteolytic fragments that can be obtained from other P-type ATPases, may be useful for obtaining three-dimensional structural information on the cytosolic portion of these ATPases, with or without bound nucleotides. From our findings we infer that a real hinge region with conformational flexibility is located at the C-terminal boundary of p29/30 (rather than in the conserved region of residues 670-760); we also propose that the ATP-binding cleft is mainly located within the p29/30 domain, with the phosphorylation site strategically located at the N-terminal border of this domain.

Abstract
Nucleotide binding to 5-iodoacetamidofluorescein (IAF) labelled Na+/K(+)-ATPase was measured by steady state fluorescence quenching of the fluorescein label via energy transfer to trinitrophenyl (TNP) labelled nucleotide. TNP-nucleotides are valuable probes of nucleotide binding to ATPases. Interpretation of these and other experiments in our laboratory using TNP-nucleotides with the Na+/K(+)-ATPase rely on having a good model for the interaction of TNP-nucleotide with the enzyme. Sets of fluorescence quenching curves obtained by titrating the enzyme with TNP-ADP in the presence of various concentrations of ADP could not be adequately modelled using a simple model with a single nucleotide binding site. Therefore, we compare various models which allow for additional TNP-nucleotide binding to the enzyme. In the two-site model, the additional binding is to a second specific site for which TNP-nucleotide and unlabelled nucleotide compete. In two other models, the additional binding (in one case saturable, and in the other case non-saturable) of TNP-nucleotide is not blocked by or affected by unlabelled nucleotide, and is, therefore, referred to as non-specific binding of the TNP-nucleotide. The goal of this work is to determine which of the distinctly different physical pictures associated with these models most accurately describes the interaction of TNP-nucleotide with the enzyme. We find that the interaction of TNP-ADP with IAF-labelled Na+/K(+)-ATPase is best described by a model in which there are two classes of binding: TNP-ADP and ADP compete for a specific binding site with dissociation binding constants of 0.13 microM for TNP-ADP and 2.0 microM for ADP; and non-saturable non-specific binding of TNP-ADP.

Abstract
Recent reports by d'Albis et al. have shown that denervation of 8-day-old rabbit fast-twitch muscle (gastrocnemius) leads to the transformation of the muscle towards a slow phenotype but the changes towards slow-type myosin isoforms and contractile properties of the muscle were temporally uncoordinated. We analyzed the time course of the effects of denervation of the gastrocnemius on the expression of the sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium pump isoforms (SERCA) and on the metabolic state of the muscle. Northern-blot analysis showed a rapid loss of the fast Ca2+ pump isoform (SERCA 1) mRNA from the denervated gastrocnemius which became of the oxidative type. The changes observed were complete as early as 35 days post-natal, i.e at the time when changes in contractile properties were previously observed. Denervation of the slow-twitch soleus led to a 50% decrease in the level of the slow Ca2+ pump isoform (SERCA 2) mRNA and was without effect on the metabolic state of the muscle. These findings extend previous results suggesting that in rabbit, continuous innervation is required for differentiation of fast-twitch muscles but is not an absolute requirement for differentiation of the slow-twitch muscle.

Abstract
Applications of intrinsic fluorescence measurements in the study of Ca(2+)-transport ATPases are reviewed. Since the initial reports showing that the fluorescence emission was sensitive to Ca2+ binding, a substantial amount of work has focused on the use of both steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy to investigate structure-function relationships in sarcoplasmic reticulum and plasma membrane Ca(2+)-ATPases. These studies have revealed ligand-induced conformational changes, as well as provided information on protein-protein, protein-solvent and/or protein-lipid interactions in different functional states of these proteins. The main results of these studies, as well as possible future prospects are discussed.

Abstract
In recent years, expression of rabbit sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+)-ATPase in heterologous systems has been a widely used strategy to study altered enzymes generated by site-directed mutagenesis. Various eukaryotic expression systems have been tested, all of them yielding comparable amounts of recombinant protein. However, the relatively low yield of recombinant protein obtained so far suggests that novel purification techniques will be required to allow further characterization of this enzyme based on direct ligand-binding measurements.

Abstract
A series of recombinant peptides, each including the sequence proposed to be the first nucleotide-binding fold of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), has been produced in an attempt to find a model peptide that would autologously fold into a soluble structure with native-like properties. The peptide NBDIF, which contains the 267-amino acid sequence of CFTR from 384 to 650, meets these requirements. The peptide was produced with a high expression bacterial plasmid pRSET, purified from inclusion bodies following solubilization with 6 M guanidine-HCl and refolded from 8 M urea. Competitive displacement of trinitrophenol-ATP by nucleotides reveals binding of ATP and related nucleotides with KDs in the low micromolar range; the KD for ATP gamma S is 1.0 +/- 0.4 microM and for ADP 8.8 +/- 3.1 microM. The native-like character of the model peptide's structure is further supported by the findings that the KD for the ATP analog, 5'-adenylimidodiphosphate, is fourfold lower than the KD for the methylene analog, 5'-adenylmethylenediphosphonate, and that ATP binding slows the trypsin proteolysis of NBDIF. The CD spectra of NBDIF and the parallel peptide containing the most common cystic fibrosis mutation, deletion of Phe 508, are essentially indistinguishable, both spectra indicating 28% alpha-helix and 23% beta-sheet, with insignificant differences in the amounts of beta-turns and random structure. Extensive investigation using multiple conditions with highly purified preparations of the model peptides demonstrates that they do not support ATP hydrolysis. These large recombinant peptides offer practical models for the investigation of the first nucleotide-binding domain of CFTR.

Abstract
The conditions of nucleotide binding to native, though partly purified, Ca(2+)-ATPase from SR as well as the stoichiometry of nucleotide and strontium binding and the phosphorylation capacity was reevaluated. Binding of MgADP appeared to be aberrant whereas even high-affinity binding of [14C]-ADP took place in the absence of Mg2+. Also low-affinity ATP binding was possible in the absence of divalent cations. A heterogeneity in ADP binding compatible with a two-component model in the absence of thapsigargin was changed to an apparent homogeneity of low-affinity receptors following a mole:mole interaction of enzyme and thapsigargin. Since the affinity of both components was reduced by thapsigargin, high- as well as low-affinity ADP binding seem to be specific and probably to the substrate receptor proper. Analysis of ADP binding isotherms in the absence of Mg2+ according to a model of two independent populations of sites was compatible with a binding capacity of 8.49 +/- 0.43 nmoles/mg protein corresponding to a molecular mass of 118 +/- 6 kD per ADP site. The same total binding capacity was found for ATP. The phosphorylation capacity corresponded to more than one and less than two approximately P per two 110-kD peptides (formally one approximately P per 154 kD protein). Specific binding of Ca2+ and the congener Sr2+ to SR Ca(2+)-ATPase was compatible with their interaction with a single population of sites. The binding capacity was equal to one divalent cation per nucleotide binding peptide. The binding of one nucleotide and one divalent cation per approximately 110 kD peptide and the absence of cooperativity in divalent cation binding might imply that Ca(2+)-ATPase works as a monomer.

Abstract
We describe here an easy system for the production of mg amounts of the rabbit Ca(2+)-ATPase SERCA 1a in the yeast S. cerevisiae. The protein is present in several membranes, including the plasma membrane of the yeast, in a native conformation. It can be purified by immunoprecipitation and can be phosphorylated from ATP in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner. Using a temperature-sensitive secretion mutant strain, the fully active protein can also be obtained in secretory vesicles.
