A Mg2+-independent high-affinity Ca2+-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase in the plasma membrane of rat stomach smooth muscle. Subcellular distribution and inhibition by Mg2+

Abstract

Plasma membrane enriched fraction isolated from the fundus smooth muscle of rat stomach displayed Ca2+-stimulated ATPase activity in the absence of Mg2+. The Ca2+ dependence of such an ATPase activity can be resolved into two hyperbolic components with a high affinity (Km = 0.4 microM) and a low affinity (Km = 0.6 mM) for Ca2+. Distribution of these high-affinity and low-affinity Ca2+-ATPase activities parallels those of several plasma membrane …
