Two-dimensional structure of phospholipase induced crystals of Ca2+-ATPase from sarcoplasmic reticulum. 1986

M Misra, and S K Malhotra

A two-dimensional projection map was computed of the Ca2+-ATPase molecules in sarcoplasmic reticulum, isolated from rabbit skeletal muscle. Crystalline arrays of Ca2+-ATPase molecules were formed by incubating the membrane vesicles with phospholipase A2 and dialysing against Tris/HCl buffer. Ca2+-ATPase molecules appear as quasi-triangular blobs in the projection map and seem to form dimers. The projection map seems to indicate an enzyme conformation somewhat similar to vanadate-induced crystals but different from lanthanide-induced crystals of Ca2+-ATPase.

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.
