Crystallization of Ca2+ ATPase in sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles by phospholipase treatment. 1985

M Misra, and S K Malhotra

Ca2+ ATPase molecules in sarcoplasmic reticulum, isolated from rabbit skeletal muscle, have been induced to crystallize into two-dimensional arrays by incubating the vesicles with phospholipase A2 and dialysing against dilute Tris/HCl buffer. These crystals differ in shape and size from those produced by treatment of the sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles with Na3VO4. However, the unit-cell dimensions of both types of crystals are similar. The differences in shape and size are presumably due to differences in the mechanisms of crystal formation induced by treatment with phospholipase and Na3VO4.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008854 Microscopy, Electron Microscopy using an electron beam, instead of light, to visualize the sample, thereby allowing much greater magnification. The interactions of ELECTRONS with specimens are used to provide information about the fine structure of that specimen. In TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY the reactions of the electrons that are transmitted through the specimen are imaged. In SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPY an electron beam falls at a non-normal angle on the specimen and the image is derived from the reactions occurring above the plane of the specimen. Electron Microscopy

D010740 Phospholipases A class of enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of phosphoglycerides or glycerophosphatidates. EC 3.1.-. Lecithinases,Lecithinase,Phospholipase
D010741 Phospholipases A Phospholipases that hydrolyze one of the acyl groups of phosphoglycerides or glycerophosphatidates.
D011817 Rabbits A burrowing plant-eating mammal with hind limbs that are longer than its fore limbs. It belongs to the family Leporidae of the order Lagomorpha, and in contrast to hares, possesses 22 instead of 24 pairs of chromosomes.

D000252 Calcium-Transporting ATPases Cation-transporting proteins that utilize the energy of ATP hydrolysis for the transport of CALCIUM. They differ from CALCIUM CHANNELS which allow calcium to pass through a membrane without the use of energy.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA. Animal,Metazoa,Animalia
