Abstract
Little is known about how corals sense and respond to light. In this report the proteome of coral is explored using 2D protein electrophoresis in two species, Montastraea cavernosa and Acropora millepora. Multiple protein species have major shifts in abundance in both species when sampled in daylight compared to corals sampled late in the night. These changes were observed both in larvae lacking zooxanthellae and in adult tissue containing zooxanthellae, including both Pacific and Caribbean corals. When larvae kept in the dark were treated with either thapsigargin or ionomycin, compounds that raise the level of cytoplasmic calcium, the night pattern of proteins shifted to the day pattern. This implies that photoreceptors responding to light elevate calcium levels and that calcium acts as the second messenger relaying light responses in corals. Corals spawn at night, and spawning can be delayed by exposure to light or pushed forward by early artificial sunsets. In a series of behavioral experiments, treatment of corals with ionomycin or thapsigargin was found to delay broadcast spawning in M. franksi, demonstrating that pharmacologically altering cytoplasmic calcium levels generates the same response as light exposure. Together these results show that the photo-responsive cells of corals detect and respond to light by altering cytoplasmic calcium levels, similarly to the transduction pathways in complex invertebrate eyes. The primacy of cytoplasmic calcium levels in light responsivity has broad implications for coral reproduction, including predicting how different species spawn at different times after sunset and how reproductive isolation is achieved during coral speciation.

Abstract
AIM To observe the effect of beta2-adrenergic agonist clenbuterol on ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in isolated rat hearts and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis. METHODS Isolated rat hearts were subjected to 30 min global ischemia and 60 min reperfusion on a Langendorff apparatus. Cardiac function was evaluated by heart rate, left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP), left ventricular systolic pressure, maximal rise rate of left ventricular pressure [+dp/dt(max)], and the coronary effluent (CF). Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in the coronary effluent, malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and Ca2+-ATPase activity in the cardiac tissue were measured using commercial kits. The apoptotic cardiomyocyte was detected by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated digoxigenin-dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) assay. Bax/Bcl-2 mRNA levels and the expression of caspase-3 were detected by RT-PCR and immunoblotting, respectively. Cultured newborn rat cardiomyocytes were preincubated with clenbuterol, and oxidative stress injury was induced by H2O2. Cell viability and cardiomyocyte apoptosis were evaluated by flow cytometry (FCM). RESULTS In the isolated rat hearts after I/R injury, clenbuterol significantly improved diastolic function (LVEDP and CF) and Ca2+-ATPase activity. Treatment with clenbuterol increased SOD activity and decreased the MDA level and LDH release compared with the I/R group (P<0.05). Moreover, clenbuterol decreased apoptosis, which was associated with a reduction in TUNEL-positive cells, Bax/Bcl-2 mRNA, and caspase-3 expression. In H2O2-induced cardiomyocyte injury, clenbuterol increased cell viability and attenuated cardiomyocyte apoptosis. Pretreatment with ICI118551 (selective beta2-adrenergic antagonist) decreased these effects compared with the clenbuterol-treated group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION Clenbuterol ameliorated ventricular diastolic function by enhancing Ca2+-ATPase activity and reduced oxidative stress and cardiac myocyte apoptosis in an experimental rat model of myocardium I/R. It decreased cardiomyocyte apoptosis induced by H2O2 in vitro. It plays a key role in the cardiac protection against myocardium I/R injury.

Abstract
AIM Insulin exerts anti-apoptotic effects in both cardiomyocytes and coronary endothelial cells following ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) via the Akt-endothelial nitric oxide synthase survival signal pathway. This important insulin signaling might further contribute to the improvement of cardiac function after reperfusion. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium-ATPase (SERCA2a) is involved in the insulin-induced improvement of cardiac contractile function following I/R. METHODS Ventricular myocytes were enzymatically isolated from adult SD rats. Simulated I/R was induced by perfusing cells with chemical anoxic solution for 15 min followed by reperfusion with Tyrode's solution with or without insulin for 30 min. Myocyte shortening and intracellular calcium transients were assessed and underlying mechanisms were investigated. RESULTS Reperfusion with insulin (10(-7) mol/L) significantly improved the recovery of contractile function (n=15-20 myocytes from 6-8 hearts, P<0.05), and increased calcium transients, as evidenced by the increased calcium [Ca2+] fluorescence ratio, shortened time to peak Ca2+ and time to 50% diastolic Ca2+, compared with those in cells reperfused with vehicle (P<0.05). In addition, Akt phosphorylation and SERCA2a activity were both increased in insulin-treated I/R cardiomyocytes, which were markedly inhibited by pretreatment of cells with a specific Akt inhibitor. Moreover, inhibition of Akt activity abolished insulin-induced positive contractile and calcium transients responses in I/R cardiomyocytes. CONCLUSION These data demonstrated for the first time that insulin improves the recovery of contractile function in simulated I/R cardiomyocytes in an Akt-dependent and SERCA2a-mediated fashion.

Abstract
Flubendiamide, developed by Nihon Nohyaku Co., Ltd. (Tokyo, Japan), is a novel activator of ryanodine-sensitive calcium release channels (ryanodine receptors; RyRs), and is known to stabilize insect RyRs in an open state in a species-specific manner and to desensitize the calcium dependence of channel activity. In this study, using flubendiamide as an experimental tool, we examined an impact of functional modulation of RyR on Ca2+ pump. Strikingly, flubendiamide induced a 4-fold stimulation of the Ca2+ pump activity (EC50=11 nM) of an insect that resequesters Ca2+ to intracellular stores, a greater increase than with the classical RyR modulators ryanodine and caffeine. This prominent stimulation, which implies tight functional coupling of Ca2+ release with Ca2+ pump, resulted in a marginal net increase in the extravesicular calcium concentration despite robust Ca2+ release from the intracellular stores by flubendiamide. Further analysis suggested that luminal Ca2+ is an important mediator for the functional coordination of RyRs and Ca2+ pumps. However, kinetic factors for Ca2+ pumps, including ATP and cytoplasmic Ca2+, failed to affect the Ca2+ pump stimulation by flubendiamide. We therefore conclude that the stimulation of Ca2+ pump by flubendiamide is mediated by the decrease in luminal calcium, which may induce calcium dissociation from the luminal Ca2+ binding site on the Ca2+ pump. This mechanism should play an essential role in precise control of intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis.

Abstract
This study investigated Ca2+ -cycling properties of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) in right ventricle (RV) and left ventricle (LV) of normal rat myocardium. Intracellular Ca2+ transients and contractile function were monitored in freshly isolated myocytes from RV and LV. SR in RV displayed nearly fourfold lower rates of ATP-energized Ca2+ uptake in vitro than SR of LV. The Ca2+ concentration required for half-maximal activation of Ca2+ transport was nearly twofold higher in SR of RV. The lower Ca2+ -sequestering activity of SR in RV was accompanied by a matching decrement in Ca2+ -induced phosphoenzyme formation during the catalytic cycle of the Ca2+ -pumping ATPase (SERCA2). Western immunoblot analysis showed that protein levels of Ca2+ -ATPase and its inhibitor phospholamban (PLN) were only approximately 15% lower in SR of RV than in SR of LV. Coimmunoprecipitation experiments revealed that PLN-bound, functionally inert Ca2+ -ATPase molecules in SR of RV greatly exceed (> 50%) that in SR of LV. Endogenous Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase-mediated phosphorylation of SR substrates did not abolish the huge disparity in SR Ca2+ pump function between RV and LV. Intracellular Ca2+ transients, evoked by electrical field stimulation, were significantly prolonged in RV myocytes compared with LV myocytes, mainly because of slow decay of intracellular Ca2+ concentration. The slow decay of intracellular Ca2+ concentration in RV and consequent decrease in the speed of RV relaxation may promote temporal synchrony of the end of diastole in RV and LV. The preponderance of functionally silent SR Ca2+ pumps in RV reflects a higher diastolic reserve required to protect and maintain RV function in the face of a sudden rise in afterload or resistance in the pulmonary circulation.

Abstract
At 0 to 20 degrees C, the Ca(2+)-ATPase activity of the scallop sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) was observed to be 7-60% of the peak activity at 30 degrees C, while the ATPase activity of the rabbit SR was 0-7% of its peak at 55 degrees C. The relative rabbit ATPase activity (0.7-7.0%) at 7-20 degrees C became higher (6-15 times) and lower (1/4-1/2), respectively, by the solubilization of the rabbit ATPase with a detergent, dodecyloctaethylenglycol monoether, and by the reconstitution of the ATPase with asolectin (soybean lecithin). No activity at 0 degrees C remained irrespective of these treatments. The relative scallop ATPase activity at 0-20 degrees C was, however, scarcely affected by such solubilization and reconstitution. In contrast to the rabbit ATPase, the scallop ATPase seems to be capable of operating independently without the help of the membrane lipid at low temperature.

Abstract
To further explore the role of interleukin-2 (IL-2) in cardiac function, we investigated its effects on the intracellular calcium transient and the activity of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+-ATPase in rat cardiomyocytes. IL-2 (200 U/ml) decreased the amplitude of electrically stimulated and caffeine-induced intracellular Ca2+ transients in ventricular myocytes, but increased the end-diastolic calcium level. IL-2 did not affect the sarcolemmal L-type Ca2+ channel activity. The activity of SR Ca2+-ATPase from IL-2-treated hearts increased in a dose-dependent manner, but the sarcolemmal Ca2+-ATPase activity did not change. After incubation of SR with ATP, the activity of SR Ca2+-ATPase from IL-2-treated hearts increased much more than that in the control group. The responsiveness of SR Ca2+-ATPase from IL-2-perfused hearts to the free calcium concentration was inhibited. The Ca2+ uptake and Ca2+ content were reduced in the SR vesicles prepared from IL-2-treated rat heart. Pretreatment with the kappa-opioid receptor antagonist nor-binaltorphimine (10 nM) attenuated the effect of IL-2 on the SR Ca2+-ATPase activity, SR Ca2+ uptake, and Ca2+ content. The activity of Ca2+-ATPase in SR isolated from untreated hearts did not change when IL-2 and SR were coincubated. Thus, we conclude that the decreased calcium transient induced by IL-2 results from reduced SR calcium release, which is due to decreased SR Ca2+ uptake mediated by cardiac kappa-opioid receptors, but not from reduced activity of the sarcolemmal L-type calcium channel.

Abstract
The present study is aimed to demonstrate the protective effect of a heparin derivative, low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) against erythrocyte membrane injury. Two models serve to induce membrane lipid peroxidative damage, namely a potent cytotoxic agent, adriamycin and a hypercholesterolemic atherogenic diet. Two groups of male Wistar rats (140 +/- 10 g) received a single intravenous injection of adriamycin (ADR, 7.5 mg/kg), while two other groups were fed an atherogenic diet comprising a supplementation of 4% cholesterol, 1% cholic acid and 0.5% thiouracil (CCT diet) for 2 weeks. For each of the above two groups, LMWH (Troparin; 300 microg/day per rat subcutaneously) treatment commenced on day 8 and continued for a week. One group was maintained as the normal control group, and another group that received only LMWH treatment was designated as the LMWH drug control group. Erythrocyte membrane was isolated and assayed for its cholesterol levels, lipid peroxidation and ATPases activity. The activities of antioxidant enzymes were assessed in the haemolysate. The findings of the study were that both adriamycin and the atherogenic diet produced elevated membrane cholesterol levels and lipid peroxidation. The membrane ATPases suffered loss in activity. Accentuated oxidative stress was marked by rise in the activities of antioxidant enzymes (SOD, catalase and GPx). LMWH intervention reverted these changes thereby normalizing the membrane composition and function. The membrane protective effect of LMWH is illuminated by this work.

Abstract
To examine the effect of CTP, GTP, ITP, and UTP on calcium binding of Ca2+-ATPase molecules of the sarcoplasmic reticulum, the calcium dependence of the Ca2+-activated hydrolysis activities of these NTPs of the enzyme molecules was examined by comparison with that of calcium binding of the molecules in the absence of the NTPs at pH 7.40. In the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane, CTP, GTP, and ITP did not affect the noncooperative (Hill value (n(H)) of approximately 1, apparent calcium affinity (K(0.5)) of 2-6 microm)) and cooperative (n(H) approximately 2, K(0.5) approximately 0.2 microm) calcium binding of the molecules, whereas UTP caused the molecules to highly cooperatively (n(H) approximately 4) bind calcium ions with a lowered K(0.5) of approximately 0.04 microm. When the enzyme molecules were solubilized with detergent, all of these NTPs reversibly degraded the calcium affinity of the molecule (from K(0.5) = 3-5 to >40 microm), although the effect of the NTPs on the negatively cooperative manner (n(H) approximately 0.5) of calcium binding was not experimentally obtained. Taking into account the first part of this study (Nakamura, J., Tajima, G., Sato, C., Furukohri, T., and Konishi, K. (2002) J. Biol. Chem. 277, 24180-24190) showing the improving effect of ATP on calcium binding of the membranous and solubilized molecules, the results show that ATP is the only intrinsic substrate for the enzyme molecule. This NTP regulation is discussed in terms of the oligomeric structure of the molecules.

Abstract
The effect of ATP on calcium binding of the Ca2+-ATPase of the sarcoplasmic reticulum has not been clarified. By comparing the calcium dependence of the ATPase activity and of phosphorylation of the ATPase molecules with that of calcium binding in the absence of ATP, we show the existence of two types of regulatory site of the enzyme molecules at which ATP binding variously improves the calcium binding performance of the molecules depending on the aggregation state of the molecules and pH; the two regulatory sites bind ATP at submillimolar (0.25 mm) and millimolar (5 mm) ATP, respectively. The results are discussed based on a model of two conformational variants (A and B forms) of the chemically equivalent ATPase molecules (Nakamura, J., and Furukohri, T. (1994) J. Biol. Chem. 269, 30818-30821). For example, in the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane at pH 7.40, submillimolar ATP converted the calcium binding manner of the A form from noncooperative (Hill number (n(H)) of approximately 1) to cooperative (n(H) approximately 2), concurrent with a decrease in the apparent calcium affinity (K(0.5)) from 2-6 to 0.1-0.3 microm. The binding of the A form became almost the same as that of the B form (n(H) approximately 2, K(0.5) approximately 0.2 microm), which was not affected by ATP. Millimolar ATP further decreased the K(0.5) of the cooperative binding of the two forms to approximately 0.05 microm. Regulation of the calcium binding performance by ATP is discussed in terms of monomeric and oligomeric pathway models.

Abstract
3,5-Di-t-butyl-4-hydroxyanisole (DTBHA) increased in a concentration-dependent manner (calculated pEC(50) = 4.55 +/- 0.18 M) the oxalate-stimulated Ca(2+)-pumping rate of rat skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) vesicles. Kinetic analysis of this effect suggested that the activation of SR Ca(2+)-ATPase operated by (DTBHA) was of both mixed and non-competitive type with respect to ATP in the range of concentrations 0.1-0.5 mM and above 1 mM, respectively; furthermore, it was independent of the free Ca(2+) concentrations. This indicated that the enzyme activation took place through the acceleration of the enzyme-substrate complex breakdown. Moreover, it appeared that its target site was cyclopiazonic acid sensitive. The uncommon ability of (DTBHA) to upregulate SR Ca(2+) uptake is of interest in view of its possible use for treating pathological conditions characterised by cell Ca(2+) overload as well as genetic disorders where SR Ca(2+) homeostasis is altered.

Abstract
Our recent study (Saiki, Y., and Ikemoto, N., Biochemistry 38, 3112-3119, 1999) suggests that Ca2+ release and re-uptake of the released Ca2+ are coordinated. The following results suggest that the coordination is mediated by the luminal Ca2+ ([Ca2+]lum) transient. Upon inducing the release of the passively loaded Ca2+ from the SR with polylysine, the luminal Ca2+ ([Ca2+]lum) first increased then decreased ([Ca2+]lum transient). The activity of the SR Ca2+ ATPase was monitored at different times after inducing Ca2+ release. The phosphoenzyme (EP) formation as determined by the MANT-fluorescence increased concurrently with the initial rapid increase in the [Ca2+]lum. EP decay (pumping turnover) was accelerated concurrently with a decrease of the [Ca2+]lum. The results suggest that the [Ca2+]lum transient serves as a mediator for the acceleration of the Ca2+ re-uptake occurring soon after the induction of Ca2+ release.

Abstract
We here report the results of our recent effort to produce, in the isolated sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), a biphasic Ca2+ release and Ca2+ re-uptake transient and to resolve the kinetic relationship between Ca2+ release and re-uptake of the released Ca2+. Ca2+ release from the SR was induced by polylysine (the ryanodine receptor-specific Ca2+ release trigger) at various levels of calcium loading, or at various doses of the trigger. The changes in the Ca2+ concentration in the reaction solution and in the lumenal Ca2+ concentration were determined by stopped-flow spectroscopy using fluo-3 and mag-fura-2AM, respectively. At higher levels of calcium loading (>150 nmol/mg), polylysine induced monophasic Ca2+ release curves (without an appreciable re-uptake phase) as reported in most studies in the literature. However, lowering the calcium loading level to an intermediate range (100-150 nmol/mg) produced the desired biphasic transient curves consisting of Ca2+ release and Ca2+ re-uptake phases. Under these conditions, the increase in the polylysine concentration resulted in the increase of both the rate of Ca2+ release and that of re-uptake of the released Ca2+. The maximal rate of Ca2+ release and that of re-uptake showed a parallel relationship in the polylysine concentration range of 0-10 microM. This indicates that Ca2+ release from the SR and re-uptake of the released Ca2+ via the SR Ca2+ pump are well-coordinated processes. The changes in the lumenal Ca2+ concentration during the release and re-uptake reaction were monitored at an optimum level of calcium loading while clamping the extravesicular Ca2+ concentration at a constant value. There was again a tight correlation between Ca2+ release (decrease of the lumenal Ca2+ concentration) and re-uptake (increase of the lumenal Ca2+ concentration), indicating that acceleration of the re-uptake is controlled by the rate of decrease of the lumenal Ca2+ concentration. We propose that one of the mechanisms, by which the mode of coordination between the two components of the biphasic Ca2+ transient (viz. Ca2+ release via the ryanodine receptor and Ca2+ re-uptake via the SR Ca2+ pump) is controlled, is the change in the Ca2+ concentration gradient across the SR membrane.

Abstract
The sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase molecules have been shown to exist in two conformations (A and B) that result from intermolecular interaction of ATPase molecules (Nakamura, J., and Tajima, G. (1995) J. Biol. Chem. 270, 17350-17354). The A form binds two calcium ions noncooperatively, whereas the B form binds the calcium ions cooperatively. Here, we examined the independence of these two forms in the calcium-activated hydrolysis of acetyl phosphate (AcP) under asynchronous and synchronous conditions of their E1-E2 transitions at 0-5 and 25 degrees C. Irrespective of their synchronism and temperature, the two forms hydrolyzed AcP due to calcium that was bound to each of the forms, indicating the independence of the two forms in hydrolyzing AcP. Taking into account the monomer-dimer transition of the ATPase molecules on the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane accompanying E1-E2 transition of the molecules (Dux, L., Taylor, K. A., Ting-Beall, H. P., and Martonosi, A. (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 11730-11743), the two types of molecules seem to independently carry out such monomer-dimer transition of the same type of molecules. Two pairs, each consisting of the same type of molecules, are suggested to be the structural unit of the ATPase molecules.

Abstract
A method for tethering proteins to solid surfaces has been utilized to form vectorially oriented monolayers of the detergent-solubilized integral membrane protein Ca(2+) -ATPase from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). Bifunctional, organic self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) possessing "headgroup" binding specificity for the substrate and "endgroup" binding specificity for the enzyme were utilized to tether the enzyme to the substrate. Specifically, an amine-terminated 11-siloxyundecaneamine SAM was found to bind the Ca(2+)-ATPase primarily electrostatically. The Ca(2+)-ATPase was labeled with the fluorescent probe 5-(2-[(iodoacetyl)amino]ethyl)aminonaphthalene-1-sulfonic acid before monolayer formation. Consequently, fluorescence measurements performed on amine-terminated SAM/enzyme monolayers formed on quartz substrates served to establish the nature of protein binding. Formation of the monolayers on inorganic multilayer substrates fabricated by molecular beam epitaxy made it possible to use x-ray interferometry to determine the profile structure for the system, which was proved correct by x-ray holography. The profile structures established the vectorial orientation of the Ca(2+)-ATPase within these monolayers, to a spatial resolution of approximately 12 A. Such vectorially oriented monolayers of detergent-solubilized Ca(2+)-ATPase from SR make possible a wide variety of correlative structure/function studies, which would serve to elucidate the mechanism of Ca(2+) transport by this enzyme.

Abstract
Preincubation of red blood cell (RBC) membranes with a model system known to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) and free radicals (200 microM ferrous sulfate and 200 microM EDTA, Fe2+/EDTA) resulted inhibition of the Na+/K+ -pump ATPases was also associated with membrane protein crosslinking and lipid peroxidation, the latter as monitored by the formation of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS). Inhibition of the ion transport ATPases, protein cross-linking and formation of TBARS were prevented by U-89843D in a concentration-dependent manner, with half-maximal protection seen at 0.3 microM. U-89843D was more potent than the classical antioxidant butylated hydroxytoluene. Neither U-89843D nor the solvent DMSO had any effect on the assay of TBARS. U-89843D exerted only minimal inhibitory activity on ATPase activities. Thus, U-89843D was potent in vitro in preventing a variety of membrane-damaging reactions mediated by ROS. It is suggested that protection of membranes from ROS-mediated damage is of potential usefulness in the prevention and treatment of certain disease processes.

Abstract
Two different conformations of chemically equivalent Ca(2+)-ATPase molecules in the sarcoplasmic reticulum have been shown to non- and positive cooperatively bind two calcium ions, respectively (Nakamura, J. (1994) J. Biol. Chem. 269, 30822-30827). At pH 7.40, these ATPase molecules split into E1 (high affinity state for calcium), and E2 (low affinity state for calcium), respectively, before calcium binding. At this pH, calcium binding to the monomeric ATPase, solubilized with dodecyloctaethylenglycol monoether, was studied by examining 45Ca2+ binding to the ATPase and calcium dependence of its phosphorylation, fluorescence intensity, ATP-hydrolysis at a low (5 microM) concentration of ATP, and acetyl phosphate hydrolysis. The results suggest that the solubilized ATPase molecules predominantly preexist in E2 and negative cooperatively (the Hill value (nH) = 0.5-0.6) bind 2 mol of calcium/mol of the ATPase with an apparent calcium affinity (K0.5) of 3-5 microM. The nonequivalences of calcium bindings at the membranous ATPase molecules seem to result from the intermolecular interaction of the molecules. A high concentration (5 mM) of ATP modulated the binding manner so that it became positively cooperative (nH approximately 2) and increased the K0.5 to 0.1 microM.

Abstract
Comparison of the effects of fluoride (NaF, 1-10 mM) on the catalytic and ion transport functions of the Ca(2+)-ATPase in sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) vesicles isolated from rabbit cardiac and fast-twitch skeletal muscles revealed similarities as well as striking tissue-specific differences depending on the experimental conditions employed. Short preincubation (3 min at 37 degrees C) of cardiac or fast muscle SR with fluoride in the absence of Ca2+ and ATP prior to initiating enzyme turnover by simultaneous addition of Ca2+ and ATP to the assay medium resulted in a strong inhibitory effect of fluoride on ATP-energized (oxalate-facilitated) Ca2+ uptake and Ca(2+)-ATPase activity. On the other hand, when turnover was initiated by the addition of ATP to SR preincubated with fluoride in the presence of Ca2+ but in the absence of ATP, fluoride caused concentration-dependent stimulation of active Ca2+ uptake by fast muscle SR with no appreciable change in Ca(2+)-dependent phosphoenzyme (EP) formation (from ATP) or Ca(2+)-ATPase activity but inhibition of active Ca2+ uptake by cardiac SR with concomitant inhibition of EP formation and Ca(2+)-ATPase activity. Exposure of cardiac or fast muscle SR to fluoride in the presence of both Ca2+ and ATP resulted in concentration-dependent stimulatory effect of fluoride on Ca2+ uptake with no change in EP formation or Ca(2+)-ATPase activity, this effect diminished substantially at saturating oxalate concentration in the assay. Assessment of the effects of deferoxamine (1 mM) and exogenous aluminum (10 microM) did not indicate a requirement for aluminum in the inhibitory or stimulatory effect of fluoride. These results suggest that (a) the Ca2+ and ATP-deprived (E1/E2) but not the Ca2+ plus ATP-liganded (CaE1ATP) conformation of the SR Ca(2+)-ATPase is susceptible to inhibition by fluoride in both cardiac and fast muscle; (b) the Ca(2+)-bound conformation (CaE1) of the SR Ca(2+)-ATPase is susceptible to inhibition in cardiac muscle but is refractory to fluoride in fast muscle; and (c) the stimulatory effect of fluoride is largely secondary to its ability to mimic the action of oxalate in intravesicular Ca2+ trapping when the fluoride-resistant enzyme is turning over normally. Fluoride inhibited phosphorylation of the Ca(2+)-free enzyme by Pi in cardiac and fast muscle SR indicating that fluoride sensitivity of the phosphorylation site of the SR Ca(2+)-ATPase is similar in cardiac and fast muscle.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
H+ ejection and Ca2+ uptake promoted by the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+)-pump are similarly stimulated by millimolar Mg2+. This cannot be assigned to enhanced Ca2+ uptake and H+ displacement from internal metal binding sites since: (1) loading SR vesicles with high Mg2+ concentrations does not impair H+ ejection; (2) loading SR vesicles with Mn2+ does not depress H+ ejection occurring during Mn2+ uptake; (3) H+ ejection occurs even when Ca2+ accumulation inside the vesicles is prevented with Ca2+ ionophores. It is concluded that the Ca(2+)-pump promotes an active Ca2+/H+ countertransport stimulated by Mg2+. Finally, a mechanism for Ca2+ translocation is proposed in basic physico-chemical terms.

Abstract
Cardiac glycosides such as G-strophanthin (ouabain) bind to and inhibit the plasma membrane Na+,K(+)-ATPase but not the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+)-ATPase, whereas thapsigargin specifically blocks the SR Ca(2+)-ATPase. The chimera [n/c]CC, in which the amino-terminal amino acids Met1 to Asp162 of the SR Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA1) were replaced with the corresponding portion of the Na+,K(+)-ATPase alpha 1 subunit (Met1 to Asp200), retained thapsigargin- and Ca(2+)-sensitive ATPase activity, although the activity was lower than that of the wild-type SR Ca(2+)-ATPase. Moreover, this Ca(2+)-sensitive ATPase activity was inhibited by ouabain. The chimera NCC, in which Met1-Gly354 of the SR Ca(2+)-ATPase were replaced with the corresponding portion of the Na+,K(+)-ATPase, lost the thapsigargin-sensitive Ca(2+)-ATPase activity seen in CCC and [n/c]CC. [3H]Ouabain binding to [n/c]CC and NCC demonstrated that the affinity for this inhibitor seen in the wild-type chicken Na+,K(+)-ATPase was restored in these chimeric molecules. Thus, the ouabain-binding domains are distinct from the thapsigargin sites; ouabain binds to the amino-terminal portion (Met1 to Asp200) of the Na+,K(+)-ATPase alpha 1 subunit, whereas thapsigargin interacts with the regions after Asp162 of the Ca(2+)-ATPase. Moreover, the amino-terminal 200 amino acids of the Na+,K(+)-ATPase alpha 1 subunit are sufficient to exert ouabain-dependent inhibition even after incorporation into the corresponding portion of the Ca(2+)-ATPase, and the segment Ile163 to Gly354 of the SR Ca(2+)-ATPase is critical for thapsigargin- and Ca(2+)-sensitive ATPase activity.

Abstract
We have recently shown [Mészáros, L. G., & Bak, J. (1992) Biochemistry 31, 1195-1200] that, during the rapid phase of Ca2+ uptake into sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), internalization and binding of Ca2+ to the cytoplasmic high-affinity binding sites of the Ca2+ ATPase occur simultaneously, resulting in a transient supernumerary Ca/ATP stoichiometry. Here we address the question of whether the cytoplasmic high-affinity and the luminal low-affinity Ca2+ binding sites of the SR Ca2+ ATPase also coexist. SR vesicles were loaded with Ca2+ (0-10 mM), and then the kinetics of EP formation and decomposition as well as the maximum level of EP formed from radiolabeled ATP were determined at conditions which only allow single-cycle reactions to occur: empty or Ca-loaded SR vesicles (in micromolar extravesicular Ca2+) were either mixed with ATP plus millimolar EGTA or added in amounts that set a Ca2+ ATPase/ATP ratio of 80-85 at the initiation of the reaction. The rates of EP formation and decomposition were both significantly reduced in Ca-loaded, compared to empty (ionomycin-treated), vesicles. However, the value of EPmax was unaltered by Ca-loading, suggesting the existence of the enzyme intermediate, E.Ca2(cyt).Ca2(lum), i.e., the coexistence of the cytoplasmic and the luminal Ca2+ binding sites of the Ca-pump. These results suggest that the uphill transport of Ca2+ might not be based on an alternating relocation and conversion of the Ca2+ binding sites of the Ca2+ ATPase.

Abstract
Preincubation of red blood cell membranes in the presence of ferrous sulfate and EDTA resulted in both a concentration- and time-dependent inhibition of the Na+/K+ pump ATPase, basal Ca2+ pump ATPase, and the calmodulin- (CaM) activated Ca2+ pump ATPase. The IC50 for all three ATPases was approximately 2.5 x 10(-5) M iron. The addition to membranes of ferrous iron and EDTA in an approximately 1:1 ratio resulted in conversion to the ferric iron form in several minutes. However, inhibition of the ion pump ATPases and cross-linking of membrane proteins occurred over the course of several hours. The time course of formation of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) closely paralleled inhibition of the ion pump ATPases. Inhibition of the ion pump ATPases was prevented by the addition of deferoxamine or superoxide dismutase but not by mannitol, or catalase. Both butylated hydroxytoluene and tirilazad mesylate (U74006F) prevented the formation of TBARS, limited the inhibition of the ion pump ATPases, and reduced cross-linking of membrane proteins. These data may be interpreted to suggest that inhibition of ion pump ATPases in plasma membranes may occur as a result of iron-promoted formation of superoxide and subsequent lipid peroxidation, which can be prevented by free-radical scavengers including butylated hydroxytoluene and U74006F.

Abstract
The kinetics of Ca2+ transport mediated by the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca-ATPase were investigated by rapid kinetic techniques that either measure the disappearance of Ca2+ from the medium [stopped-flow photometry of Ca2+ indicators or rapid filtration (method 1)] or directly detect the changes in the accessibility of Ca2+ to the exterior of the membrane, i.e., occlusion of Ca2+ within the Ca pump and Ca2+ transport into the lumen of SR vesicles [EGTA quench (method 2)]. SR vesicles were preincubated in micromolar Ca2+ to form the E.2Cacyt intermediate of the Ca-ATPase, and then Ca2+ transport was initiated by addition of ATP. It was found that Ca2+ uptake measured by method 1 began with no lag phase, in spite of the prediction of kinetic models of the Ca-ATPase. Instead, the time course of Ca2+ uptake was found to have two components: a fast and a slow phase, similar to that obtained using method 2, although the rate constant of the fast phase determined by method 1 was considerably lower than that measured by method 2. The fast phase of Ca2+ uptake measured by method 1 was not influenced by either Ca2+ ionophore or detergent treatment, whereas the slow phase was diminished.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
While studying the effects of membrane phosphorylation on active Ca2+ transport in cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) we used NaF (a conventional phosphatase inhibitor) in the Ca2+ transport assay medium to suppress protein dephosphorylation by endogenous phosphatases. Unexpectedly, depending on the experimental conditions employed, NaF was found to cause a strong inhibitory or stimulatory effect on ATP-dependent, oxalate-facilitated Ca2+ uptake (Ca2+ pump) activity of SR. Investigation of this phenomenon using canine cardiac SR revealed the following. Exposure of SR to NaF in the absence of Ca2+ or ATP in the Ca2+ transport assay medium (prior to initiating Ca2+ transport by the addition of Ca2+ or ATP) promoted a striking concentration-dependent inhibitory effect of NaF (50% and 90% inhibition with approx. 4 and 10 mM NaF, respectively) on Ca2+ uptake by SR; the magnitude of inhibition did not differ appreciably with varying oxalate concentrations. In contrast, exposure of SR to NaF in the presence of both Ca2+ and ATP resulted in a concentration-dependent stimulatory effect of NaF (half-maximal stimulation at approx. 2.5 mM NaF with 2.5 mM oxalate in assay) on Ca2+ uptake; the magnitude of stimulation decreased with increasing oxalate concentration (greater than 2-fold at 1 mM oxalate, 10% at 5 mM oxalate). The inhibitory effect prevailed when SR was exposed to NaF in the presence of Ca2+ alone (without ATP) or ATP alone (without Ca2+). Both the inhibitory and stimulatory effects of NaF were specific to fluoride ion, as NaCl (1-10 mM) showed no effect on Ca2+ uptake by SR under identical assay conditions. A persistently less active state of the Ca2+ pump (evidenced by decreased Ca2+ transport rates) resulted upon pretreatment of SR with NaF in the absence of Ca2+ or ATP; presence of Ca2+ and ATP during pretreatment prevented this transition. The inhibitory action of NaF on the Ca2+ pump was accompanied by a two-fold increase in K0.5 for Ca2+ and decrements in Hill coefficient (nH) and Ca(2+)-stimulated ATP hydrolysis, as well as steady-state level of Ca(2+)-induced phosphoenzyme. The stimulatory effect of NaF, on the other hand, was associated with an increase in the ratio of Ca2+ transported/ATP hydrolysed with only minor changes, if any, in the above parameters. These findings imply that the divergent effects of fluoride are dependent on specific conformational states of the Ca(2+)-ATPase which evolve during the catalytic and ion transport cycle.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
The Ca2+,Mg(2+)-ATPase of skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) is irreversibly inactivated by a freeze-thaw (FT) cycle. The membrane does not become more permeable to calcium after a FT cycle, suggesting that the reduced uptake is due to damage to the Ca2+,Mg(2+)-ATPase. Several amino acids, in addition to standard cryoprotectants provide good protection of calcium uptake against FT damage. The amount of protection given by the amino acids is generally inversely proportional to a measure of hydrophobicity, the mean fractional area loss upon incorporation in globular proteins of the amino acid side chain. Unlike the case for cells, glutamine and dimethyl sulfoxide do not act independently as cryoprotectants for SR calcium ATPase. When the protein is exposed to multiple FT cycles, the amount of inactivation is exponentially proportional to the number of FT cycles. This is true for both protected and unprotected samples. Some SR vesicles fuse during FT. Fusion of vesicles cannot account for the observed inactivation of the enzyme. Fluorescence studies, using intrinsic tryptophan and extrinsic FITC and NCD-4, suggest that FT does not damage the transmembrane region of the Ca2+,Mg(2+)-ATPase or the calcium binding sites, but only the mechanism coupling ATPase activity to calcium translocation. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) studies suggest that this region comprises less than 15% of the whole enzyme.

Abstract
In reconstituted rabbit skeletal muscle (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase proteoliposomes, Ca(2+)-uptake is decreased by more than 90% with T2 cleavage (Arg-198). However, no difference in the ATP dependence of hydrolysis activity is seen between SR and trypsin-treated SR. A large decrease in E-P formation and hydrolysis activity of the enzyme appear only at T3 cleavage, which represents the cleavage of A1 fragment to A1a + A1b forms. The disappearance of hydrolysis activity due to digestion is prior to the disappearance of E-P formation. No significant difference is found in the passive Ca2+ efflux between control SR and tryptically digested SR in the absence of Mg2+ + ruthenium red or in the presence of ATP. However, the passive Ca2+ efflux rate for tryptically digested SR is much larger than control SR in the presence of Mg2+ + ruthenium red. These results show that the Ca2+ channel cannot be closed after trypsin digestion of SR membranes by the presence of the Ca2+ channel inhibitors, Mg2+ and ruthenium red. In the reconstituted proteoliposomes, the Ca2+ efflux rates are the same regardless of digestion (T2); also, efflux is not affected by the presence or absence of Mg2+ + ruthenium red. These results indicate that T2 cleavage causes 'uncoupling' of the 'Ca(2+)-pump' from ATP hydrolytic activity. A theoretical model is developed in order to fit the extent of tryptic digestion of the A fragment of the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase polypeptide with the loss of Ca(2+)-transport. Fits of the theoretical equations to the data are consistent with that Ca(2+)-transport system appears to require a dimer of the polypeptide (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase.

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to better define the relationship of the 53 kDa glycoprotein (GP-53) of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) to other SR proteins. Towards that end the effects of antibodies against GP-53 on the rotational dynamics of maleimide spin-labeled proteins of SR of rabbit skeletal muscle were investigated. The labeling protocol used in this study provided 1.6 +/- 0.3 moles spin label incorporated per 10(5) g SR protein. Labeling specificity studies indicated that nearly 70% of the label bound specifically to the Ca(2+)-ATPase, with the remainder bound to GP-53. Using saturation-transfer electron paramagnetic resonance (ST-EPR), it was determined that the rotational mobility (i.e., the rate of rotation) of the spin-labeled SR proteins decreased greater than 5-fold upon preincubation of MSL-SR with an antiserum against the GP-53, while preincubation of MSL-SR with preimmune serum had no effect. Preincubation of MSL-SR with a monoclonal antibody against the GP-53 produced a 4-fold decrease in the rotational mobility of the MSL-SR proteins compared to control measurements. Further, these effects showed a marked calcium dependence: the decrease in the rotational mobility of the MSL-SR proteins preincubated with anti-GP-53 antibodies in 500 microM Ca2+ was 3-6-fold greater than that of MSL-SR preincubated with antibodies in 5 mM EGTA. While MSL was bound to both Ca(2+)-ATPase and GP-53, model calculations indicated that the decreases observed in the rotational mobility of the MSL-SR proteins caused by the anti-GP-53 monoclonal antibodies were too large to be accounted for by effects on GP-53 alone. The calculations suggest that the rotational rate of Ca(2+)-ATPase was also diminished by anti-GP-53 monoclonal antibodies, indicating an interaction between GP-53 and Ca(2+)-ATPase in the SR membrane.

Abstract
A series of amphiphilic polymethlyenecarboxymaleimides has been synthesized for use as sulfhydryl reagents applicable to membrane proteins. Physical properties of the compounds which are relevant to their proposed mode of action have been determined. By comparing rates of reaction in aqueous and aprotic solvents, the compounds have been shown to react exclusively with the thiolate ion. The effects of the reagents on three membrane-associated proteins are reported, and in two cases a comparative study has been made of the effects on the proteins in the absence of membranes. A mechanism is proposed whereby the reagents are anchored at the lipid/water interface by the negatively charged carboxyl group, thus sitting the reactive maleimide in a plane whose depth is defined by the length of the reagent. Supporting evidence for this model is provided by the inability of the reagents to traverse membranes, and variation of their inhibitory potency with chain length when the proteins are embedded in the membrane, but not when extracted into solution. As examples of general use of the reagents to probe sulfhydryl groups in membrane proteins, the reagents have been used to (a) determine the depths in the membrane at which two populations of sulfhydryl groups occur in the mitochondrial phosphate transporter; (b) locate a single sulfhydryl associated with the active site of D-beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase in the inner mitochondrial membrane; (c) examine sulfhydryl groups in the D-3-glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase associated with the human red blood cell membrane.

Abstract
The analog of ATP obtained by oxidation of the ribose ring of ATP with periodate (oxATP) was used as a reagent for the inhibition and labeling of the Ca2(+)-ATPase purified from sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes. The substrate concentration dependence for hydrolysis showed a biphasic pattern for both ATP and oxATP as substrates. Preincubation of Ca2(+)-ATPase in the presence of 0.05 mM CaCl2, 5 mM MgCl2, 100 mM KCl and oxATP led to an irreversible inhibition. This inhibition occurred faster at alkaline pH. The presence of ADP, adenyl-5'-imidodiphosphate (AMP-PNP) or EGTA in the preincubation medium decreased the rate of inhibition. OxATP covalently labels the enzyme: the labeling was decreased by ADP. This ADP-protected labeling increased with time until it reached approx. 1 mol [3H]oxATP per mol ATPase. The rate of labeling of the ADP-protected group correlated with the rate of loss of ADP-protected activity. Trypsin digestion of oxATP-labeled ATPase followed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate showed that fragment A1 contained a high degree of label that is displaced by ADP. We propose that the A1 fragment is situated close to the ribose ring when the adenosine moiety of ATP is bound to the catalytic site of the Ca2(+)-ATPase.

Abstract
Phospholamban is the regulator of the Ca(2+)-ATPase in cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). The mechanism of regulation appears to involve inhibition by dephosphorylated phospholamban, and phosphorylation may relieve this inhibition. Fast-twitch skeletal muscle SR does not contain phospholamban, and it is not known whether the Ca(2+)-ATPase isoform from this muscle may be also subject to regulation by phospholamban in a similar manner as the cardiac isoform. To determine this we reconstituted the skeletal isoform of the SR Ca(2+)-ATPase with phospholamban in phosphatidylcholine proteoliposomes. Inclusion of phospholamban was associated with significant inhibition of the initial rates of Ca2+ uptake at pCa 6.0, and phosphorylation of phospholamban by the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase reversed the inhibitory effects on the Ca2+ pump. Similar effects of phospholamban were also observed using phosphatidylcholine:phosphatidylserine proteoliposomes, in which the Ca2+ pump was activated by the negatively charged phospholipids (24). Regulation of the Ca(2+)-ATPase appeared to involve binding with the hydrophilic portion of phospholamban, as evidenced by cross-linking experiments, using a synthetic peptide that corresponded to amino acids 1-25 of phospholamban. These findings suggest that the fast-twitch isoform of the SR Ca(2+)-ATPase may be also regulated by phospholamban, although this regulator is not expressed in fast-twitch skeletal muscles.

Abstract
A patient with slow muscle relaxation but without accompanying motor unit or myotonic electrical activity had a unique staircase twitch response to repeated nerve stimulation. During 1-Hz stimulation, twitches recorded by measurement of the ankle dorsiflexor group displayed progressively increasing relaxation times with successive stimuli (37% increase) unlike the progressively decreasing relaxation time of the normal response (12-37% decrease). The response may be diagnostic of this unusual myopathy; the test methods are noninvasive and easily tolerated.

Abstract
L-lysine, a cationic essential amino acid, has been reported to affect calcium transport in both intestine and kidney. In order to investigate whether this effect is associated with changes in cytosolic calcium homeostasis, we studied the effect of L-lysine deprivation on intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i), as well as 45Ca efflux and accumulation in normal human fibroblasts. Steady state [Ca2+]i, measured using fura-2 fluorescence in cells cultured for 18 hours in a L-lysine-free medium, was significantly higher than in cells grown in the presence of as little as 4 microM L-lysine. L-lysine deprivation also led to a significant decrease of 45Ca fractional efflux compared with cells grown in complete medium. This effect was paralleled by a significant decrease in 45Ca accumulation. Lack of L-arginine from the growth medium for the same time period had no effect on either [Ca2+]i, 45Ca efflux, or 45Ca accumulation rate. Presumably, the lack of L-lysine for a significant amount of time impairs the active mechanisms of calcium extrusion, which is only partially compensated by a reduction of calcium accumulation rate. This leads to an increased steady state [Ca2+]i. It is concluded that L-lysine is an important modulator of cytosolic calcium homeostasis.

Abstract
Microsomal fractions, highly enriched with endoplasmic reticulum of rat and human liver exhibit Ca2+ uptake catalyzed by a Ca2+-pumping ATPase. The mechanism of Ca2+-translocation involves: (i) reversible Ca2+-dependent formation of an acyl-phosphoenzyme intermediate (Mr 116,000 to 118,000) with bound Ca2+, which in the reversed reaction can transphosphorylate its Pi to ADP to re-synthesize ATP; (ii) reversible transition of the ADP-reactive phosphoenzyme into an isomer without bound Ca2+, not further reactive to ADP; (iii) hydrolytic cleavage, stimulated by Mg2+, K+, and ATP of the ADP-unreactive phosphoenzyme with liberation of Pi. By analogy to a mechanism proposed for the Ca2+ pump of sarcoplasmic reticulum, the translocation of Ca2+ to and dissociation from the inner side of the membrane is suggested to occur by a conformational change, coupled with a decrease in Ca2+-affinity of the phosphoenzyme during its transition into the ADP-unreactive isomer. With CaATP as the effective substrate the reactions proceed normally but at a considerably slower rate.

Abstract
The 55-kDa high-affinity calcium binding protein (HACBP) was first identified and isolated from skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). Using polyclonal antibodies raised against the HACBP isolated from skeletal muscle we have identified this protein in cardiac and smooth muscle as well as in non-muscle cells. Although the 55-kDa protein has a size, properties and localization similar to that of calsequestrin, the two proteins are immunologically distinct. The NH2-terminal sequence of uterine HACBP is also completely different from that of calsequestrin but it is identical to that of rabbit liver calregulin, a recently identified calcium binding protein. Indirect immunofluorescence staining of frozen sections and culture cells from a variety of tissues shows that the 55-kDa protein localizes predominantly to junctional SR and T-tubule areas in skeletal muscle, to SR in smooth and cardiac muscle cells, and to ER in a variety of non-muscle cells. These data show that the protein is present in a wide variety of tissues and suggest that it is a protein common for both sarcoplasmic and endoplasmic reticulum membranes.

Abstract
The effects of an antiserum against the 53-kDa glycoprotein (GP-53) of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) and of monoclonal antibodies against GP-53 on Ca2+ transport and ATP hydrolysis by SR of rabbit skeletal muscle have been investigated. Preincubation of SR with an antiserum against GP-53 resulted in decreased ATP-driven Ca2+ transport by the SR but had no effect on Ca2+-stimulated ATP hydrolysis. Preincubation of SR with preimmune serum had no significant effect on either Ca2+ transport or Ca2+-ATPase activity. The effect of anti-GP-53 serum was time and concentration dependent. Preincubation of SR with two monoclonal antibodies against GP-53 had no effect on Ca2+ transport or on Ca2+-stimulated ATP hydrolysis. However, preincubation of SR with either monoclonal antibody against GP-53 together with a monoclonal antibody against the Ca2+-ATPase (at levels which had little effect alone) resulted in markedly decreased rates of Ca2+ uptake and ATP hydrolysis. Preincubation of SR with anti-GP-53-serum or with monoclonal antibodies, under the same conditions that inhibited Ca2+ uptake, did not increase the passive permeability of the SR membrane to Ca2+, did not decrease the permeability of the SR to oxalate, and did not cause significant proteolysis of the Ca2+-ATPase. Our results are consistent with the interpretation that GP-53 may modulate the function of the Ca2+-ATPase of the SR membrane.

Abstract
Sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase cDNA clones have been isolated from an adult rat heart cDNA library and the nucleotide sequence of the Ca2+-ATPase mRNA determined. The sequence has an open reading frame of 997 codons. It is identical to a cDNA isolated from a rat stomach cDNA library and 90% isologous to the rabbit and human slow/cardiac cDNAs. Nuclease S1 mapping analysis indicates that this sequence corresponds to the main Ca2+-ATPase mRNA present in heart and in slow skeletal muscle and that it is expressed in various proportions in smooth and non-muscle tissues, together with another isoform which differs from the cardiac form in the sequence of its 3'-end.

Abstract
To identify protein targets for calmodulin (CaM) in the cilia of Paramecium tetraurelia, we employed a 125I-CaM blot assay after resolution of ciliary proteins on SDS/polyacrylamide gels. Two distinct types of CaM-binding proteins were detected. One group bound 125I-CaM at free Ca2+ concentrations above 0.5-1 microM and included a major binding activity of 63 kDa (C63) and activities of 126 kDa (C126), 96 kDa (C96), and 36 kDa (C36). CaM bound these proteins with high (nanomolar) affinity and specificity relative to related Ca2+ receptors. The second type of protein bound 125I-CaM only when the free Ca2+ concentration was below 1-2 microM and included polypeptides of 95 kDa (E95) and 105 kDa (E105). E105 may also contain Ca2+-dependent binding sites for CaM. Both E95 and E105 exhibited strong specificity for Paramecium CaM over bovine CaM. Ciliary subfractionation experiments suggested that C63, C126, C96, E95, and E105 are bound to the axoneme, whereas C36 is a soluble and/or membrane-associated protein. Additional Ca2+-dependent CaM-binding proteins of 63, 70, and 120 kDa were found associated with ciliary membrane vesicles. In support of these results, filtration binding assays also indicated high-affinity binding sites for CaM on isolated intact axonemes and suggested the presence of both Ca2+-dependent and Ca2+-inhibitable targets. Like E95 and E105, the Ca2+-inhibitable CaM-binding sites showed strong preference for Paramecium CaM over vertebrate CaM and troponin C. Together, these results suggest that CaM has multiple targets in the cilium and hence may regulate ciliary motility in a complex and pleiotropic fashion.
