A protein modulator of erythrocyte membrane (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase inhibitor protein. 1984

K S Au, and K S Lee

A protein modulator of erythrocyte membrane (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase inhibitor protein was purified to apparent homogeneity from pig membrane-free hemolysate by a combination of carboxymethyl-Sephadex chromatography, gel filtration, chromatofocusing (pH 7-4) and subsequent removal of trace inhibitor protein by salt treatment. Gel filtration gave a molecular weight of 57500 for the purified protein modulator, while SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of dithiothreitol-treated modulator revealed one single band with a molecular weight of 29000. Isoelectric focusing of the dithiothreitol-treated protein revealed one band (isoelectric pH 4.85), while untreated modulator gave an extra band (isoelectric pH 4.96). It contains no methionine and has an acidic amino acid content 73% higher than that of its basic residues. Freshly prepared or dithiothreitol-treated modulator suppressed both pig and human erythrocyte (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase inhibitor protein activity, but did not affect ATPase and calmodulin activities. Modulator-coupled Affi-Gel 15 could be employed for purification of the protein inhibitor.

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.

D017301	Ca(2+) Mg(2+)-ATPase	An enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of ATP and is activated by millimolar concentrations of either Ca(2+) or Mg(2+). Unlike CA(2+)-TRANSPORTING ATPASE it does not require the second divalent cation for its activity, and is not sensitive to orthovanadate. (Prog Biophys Mol Biol 1988;52(1):1).
