[Modification of the functional properties of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca-ATPase in hypercholesterolemia]. 1986

I L Kuz'mina, and V B Ritov

Using alamethicin, permitting the measurement of genuine catalytic enzyme activity, hypercholesterolemia was shown to cause a 10-30% reduction of specific Ca-ATPase activity registered at 37 degrees C and the shift of Arrhenius plot in 20-30 degrees C temperature range. Reconstruction of delipidated Ca-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes by egg lecithin in animals with hypercholesterolemia does not lead to the recovery of Arrhenius plot. The data obtained demonstrate that modification of temperature-dependent Ca-ATPase activity in hypercholesterolemia is associated with the changes in the polypeptide with a catalytic function and is not induced by the changes in phospholipid enzyme surroundings.

D008563 Membrane Lipids Lipids, predominantly phospholipids, cholesterol and small amounts of glycolipids found in membranes including cellular and intracellular membranes. These lipids may be arranged in bilayers in the membranes with integral proteins between the layers and peripheral proteins attached to the outside. Membrane lipids are required for active transport, several enzymatic activities and membrane formation.

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.
