[Purification and some properties of skeletal muscle sarcolemma Ca2+-ATPase].

Ca2+-ATPase of skeletal muscle sarcolemma has been isolated and purified. It is prepared from salt extract of sarcolemma by ammonium sulfate fractionation and further purified by gel chromatography on Sepharose 4B. The purity of preparations was evaluated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate. It has been shown that Ca2+-ATPase possesses the same mobility as skeletal muscle myosin under gel chromatography on Sepharose 4B and the same mobility as myosin heavy chains in sodium dodecyl sulfate--polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Membrane protein binds to rabbit skeletal muscle actin, and this complex dissociates by ATP. Interaction with actin does not change Ca2+- or Mg2+-stimulated ATPase activity. Enzyme has only one pH optimum at 7,0-7,6. Membrane protein is highly specified to calcium--ATPase activity in the presence of Mn2+ is 10% and in the presence of Sr2+, Mg2+ or Co2+ are 3-5% of the activity in the presence of Ca2+. Other nucleoside triphosphate (UTP and ITP) are hydrolyzed at lower rates than is ATP.
