Abstract
Like other integral membrane proteins, the activity of the Sarco/Endoplasmic Reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA) is regulated by the membrane environment. Cholesterol is present in the endoplasmic reticulum membrane at low levels, and it has the potential to affect SERCA activity both through direct, specific interaction with the protein or through indirect interaction through changes of the overall membrane properties. There are experimental data arguing for both modes of action for a cholesterol-mediated regulation of SERCA. In the current study, coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations are used to address how a mixed lipid-cholesterol membrane interacts with SERCA. Candidates for direct regulatory sites with specific cholesterol binding modes are extracted from the simulations. The binding pocket for thapsigargin, a nanomolar inhibitor of SERCA, has been suggested as a cholesterol binding site. However, the thapsigargin binding pocket displayed very little cholesterol occupation in the simulations. Neither did atomistic simulations of cholesterol in the thapsigargin binding pocket support any specific interaction. The current study points to a non-specific effect of cholesterol on SERCA activity, and offers an alternative interpretation of the experimental results used to argue for a specific effect.

Abstract
Bottlenecks in expression, solubilization, purification and crystallization hamper the structural study of integral membrane proteins (IMPs). Successful crystallization is critically dependent on the purity, stability and oligomeric homogeneity of an IMP sample. These characteristics are in turn strongly influenced by the type and concentration of the detergents used in IMP preparation. By utilizing the techniques and analytical tools we earlier developed for the characterization of protein-detergent complexes (PDCs) [21], we demonstrate that for successful protein extraction from E. coli membrane fractions, the solubilizing detergent associates preferentially to IMPs rather than to membrane lipids. Notably, this result is contrary to the generally accepted mechanism of detergent-mediated IMP solubilization. We find that for one particular member of the family of proteins studied (E. coli receptor kinases, which is purified in mixed multimeric states and oligomerizes through its transmembrane region), the protein oligomeric composition is largely unaffected by a 10-fold increase in protein concentration, by alteration of micelle properties through addition of other detergents to the PDC sample, or by a 20-fold variation in the detergent concentration used for solubilization of the IMP from the membrane. We observed that the conditions used for expression of the IMP, which impact protein density in the membrane, has the greatest influence on the IMP oligomeric structure. Finally, we argue that for concentrating PDCs smaller than 30 kDa, stirred concentration cells are less prone to over-concentration of detergent and are therefore more effective than centrifugal ultrafiltration devices.

Abstract
Phospholamban (PLB) is a small membrane protein that regulates the activity of the calcium ATP-ase in the cardiac, slow-twitch, and smooth muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum through the reversible phosphorylation of Ser16. We present here a comparative molecular dynamics study of unmodified and phosphorylated PLB immersed in a phospholipid membrane. The study has been performed under different ionic strength conditions, using the NMR structures of two PLB variants determined in mixed organic solvent and dodecylphosphocholine micelles. The simulations indicate that all PLB forms studied display a highly dynamic behavior of the N-terminal cytoplasmic moiety, with a decrease of its helical content in the phosphorylated forms. The cytoplasmic domain undergoes large collective motions sampling conformations parallel as well as perpendicular to the membrane surface in all the simulations. The transmembrane domain retains a tightly folded helical conformation with a small tilt with respect to the membrane plane probably induced by the presence of Asn30 and Asn34 within the hydrophobic environment. Furthermore, the phosphoric group on Ser16 establishes transient electrostatic interactions with the phospholipid heads. We propose a model in which phosphorylation diminishes the probability of interactions of PLB with residues near Lys400 in the SERCA pump, thus relieving its inhibition.

Abstract
The properties of Ca(2+)-ATPase purified and reconstituted from bovine pulmonary artery smooth muscle microsomes {enriched with endoplasmic reticulum (ER)} were studied using the detergents 1,2-diheptanoyl-sn-phosphatidylcholine (DHPC), poly(oxy-ethylene)8-lauryl ether (C(12)E(8)) and Triton X-100 as the solubilizing agents. Solubilization with DHPC consistently gave higher yields of purified Ca(2+)-ATPase with a greater specific activity than solubilization with C(12)E(8) or Triton X-100. DHPC was determined to be superior to C(12)E(8); while that the C(12)E(8) was determined to be better than Triton X-100 in active enzyme yields and specific activity. DHPC solubilized and purified Ca(2+)-ATPase retained the E1Ca-E1*Ca conformational transition as that observed for native microsomes; whereas the C(12)E(8) and Triton X-100 solubilized preparations did not fully retain this transition. The coupling of Ca(2+) transported to ATP hydrolyzed in the DHPC purified enzyme reconstituted in liposomes was similar to that of the native micosomes, whereas that the coupling was much lower for the C(12)E(8) and Triton X-100 purified enzyme reconstituted in liposomes. The specific activity of Ca(2+)-ATPase reconstituted into dioleoyl-phosphatidylcholine (DOPC) vesicles with DHPC was 2.5-fold and 3-fold greater than that achieved with C(12)E(8) and Triton X-100, respectively. Addition of the protonophore, FCCP caused a marked increase in Ca(2+) uptake in the reconstituted proteoliposomes compared with the untreated liposomes. Circular dichroism analysis of the three detergents solubilized and purified enzyme preparations showed that the increased negative ellipticity at 223 nm is well correlated with decreased specific activity. It, therefore, appears that the DHPC purified Ca(2+)-ATPase retained more organized and native secondary conformation compared to C(12)E(8) and Triton X-100 solubilized and purified preparations. The size distribution of the reconstituted liposomes measured by quasi-elastic light scattering indicated that DHPC preparation has nearly similar size to that of the native microsomal vesicles whereas C(12)E(8) and Triton X-100 preparations have to some extent smaller size. These studies suggest that the Ca(2+)-ATPase solubilized, purified and reconstituted with DHPC is superior to that obtained with C(12)E(8) and Triton X-100 in many ways, which is suitable for detailed studies on the mechanism of ion transport and the role of protein-lipid interactions in the function of the membrane-bound enzyme.

Abstract
1. Single mechanically skinned fibres and intact bundles of fibres from the twitch region of the iliofibularis muscle of cane toads were used to investigate the effects of membrane cholesterol manipulation on excitation-contraction (E-C) coupling. The cholesterol content of membranes was manipulated with methyl-beta-cyclodextrin (MbetaCD). 2. In mechanically skinned fibres, depletion of membrane cholesterol with MbetaCD caused a dose- and time-dependent decrease in transverse tubular (t)-system depolarization-induced force responses (TSDIFRs). TSDIFRs were completely abolished within 2 min in the presence of 10 mM MbetaCD but were not affected after 2 min in the presence of a 10 mM MbetaCD-1 mM cholesterol complex. There was a very steep dependence between the change in TSDIFRs and the MbetaCD : cholesterol ratio at 10 mM MbetaCD, indicating that the inhibitory effect of MbetaCD was due to membrane cholesterol depletion and not to a pharmacological effect of the agent. Tetanic responses in bundles of intact fibres were abolished after 3-4 h in the presence of 10 mM MbetaCD. 3. The duration of TSDIFRs increased markedly soon (< 2 min) after application of 10 mM MbetaCD and 10 mM MbetaCD-cholesterol complexes, but the Ca(2+) activation properties of the contractile apparatus were minimally affected by 10 mM MbetaCD. The Ca(2+) handling abilities of the sarcoplasmic reticulum appeared to be modified after 10 min exposure to 10 mM MbetaCD. 4. Confocal laser scanning microscopy revealed that the integrity of the t-system was not compromised by either intra- or extracellular application of 10 mM MbetaCD and that a large [Ca(2+)] gradient was maintained across the t-system. 5. Membrane cholesterol depletion caused rapid depolarization of the polarized t-system as shown independently by spontaneous TSDIFRs induced by MbetaCD and by changes in the fluorescence intensity of an anionic potentiometric dye (DiBAC(4)(3)) in the presence of MbetaCD. This rapid depolarization of the t-system by cholesterol depletion was not prevented by blocking the Na(+) channels with TTX (10 microM) or the L-type Ca(2+) channels with Co(2+) (5 mM). 6. The results demonstrate that cholesterol is important for maintaining the functional integrity of the t-system and sarcoplasmic reticulum, probably by having specific effects on different membrane proteins that may be directly or indirectly involved in E-C coupling.

Abstract
1. Mechanically skinned fibres from skeletal muscles of the rat, toad and yabby were used to investigate the effect of saponin treatment on sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ loading properties. The SR was loaded submaximally under control conditions before and after treatment with saponin and SR Ca2+ was released with caffeine. 2. Treatment with 10 micrograms ml-1 saponin greatly reduced the SR Ca2+ loading ability of skinned fibres from the extensor digitorum longus muscle of the rat with a rate constant of 0.24 min-1. Saponin concentrations up to 150 micrograms ml-1 and increased exposure time up to 30 min did not further reduce the SR Ca2+ loading ability of the SR, which indicates that the inhibitory action of 10-150 micrograms ml-1 saponin is not dose dependent. The effect of saponin was also not dependent on the state of polarization of the transverse-tubular system. 3. Treatment with saponin at concentrations up to 100 micrograms ml-1 for 30 min did not affect the Ca2+ loading ability of SR in skinned skeletal muscle fibres from the twitch portion of the toad iliofibularis muscle but SR Ca2+ loading ability decreased markedly with a time constant of 0.22 min-1 in the presence of 150 micrograms ml-1 saponin. 4. The saponin dependent increase in permeability could be reversed in both rat and toad fibres by short treatment with 6 microM Ruthenium Red, a potent SR Ca2+ channel blocker, suggesting that saponin does affect the SR Ca2+ channel properties in mammalian and anuran skeletal muscle. 5. Treatment of skinned fibres of long sarcomere length (> 6 microns) from the claw muscle of the yabby (a freshwater decapod crustacean) with 10 micrograms ml-1 saponin for 30 min abolished the ability of the SR to load Ca2+, indicating that saponin affects differently the SR from skeletal muscles of mammals, anurans and crustaceans. 6. It is concluded that at relatively low concentrations, saponin causes inhibition of the skeletal SR Ca2+ loading ability in a species dependent manner, probably by increasing the Ca2+ loss through SR Ca2+ release channels.

Abstract
The properties of Ca2+-ATPase purified and reconstituted from rabbit skeletal sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) has been studied in comparison with the preparations obtained by the commonly used detergent poly(oxyethylene)8-lauryl ether (C12E8) and the bile salt detergents cholate and deoxycholate. 1,2-Diheptanoyl-sn-phosphatidylcholine (DHPC) has been shown to be excellent for solubilizing a wide variety of membrane proteins [Kessi, Poiree, Wehrli, Bachofen, Semenza and Hauser (1994) Biochemistry 33, 10825-10836]. The DHPC method consistently gave higher yields of purified Ca2+-ATPase with a greater specific activity than the methods with C12E8, cholate, or deoxycholate. DHPC and C12E8 were superior to cholate and deoxycholate in active enzyme yields and specific activity. DHPC-solubilized Ca2+-ATPase purified on a density gradient retained the E1Ca-E1(*)Ca conformational transition, whereas the enzyme from the C12E8 purification did not retain this transition. The coupling of Ca2+ transported to ATP hydrolysed in the DHPC-purified enzyme was maximal and matched the values obtained with native SR, whereas the coupling was much lower for the C12E8-purified enzyme. The specific activity of Ca2+-ATPase reconstituted into dioleoylphosphatidylcholine vesicles with DHPC was up to 2-fold greater than that achieved with C12E8, and is comparable to that measured in the native SR. Finally, the dissociation of Ca2+-ATPase into monomers by DHPC preserved the ATPase activity, whereas similar dissociation by C12E8 gave only one-sixth the activity of that obtained with DHPC. These studies show that the Ca2+-ATPase solubilized, purified and reconstituted with DHPC is superior to that obtained with C12E8 in significant ways, making it a preparation suitable for detailed studies on the mechanism of ion transport and the role of protein-lipid interactions in the function of membrane proteins.

Abstract
A comparative study of lipids and proteins in sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) from rabbit and flounder has been undertaken. The protein/phospholipid ratio (w/w) was 3:1 in flounder SR (FSR) and 2.2:1 in rabbit SR (RSR). Both membranes had similar contents of PC (70%) and PI (6%). PE constituted 15% in RSR and 21% in FSR. PS and sphingomyelin were minor components of both SR (less than 4%). There were differences in the unsaturated chains of the total lipid extracts, PC, PE, and PI between FSR and RSR. RSR was high in linoleate and arachidonate while FSR contained substantial amounts of eicosapentaenoate and docosahexaenoate. FTIR spectroscopy revealed that the lipids of both membranes did not undergo a phase transition between 0 and 50 degrees C. The lipids were in the liquid-crystalline state at physiological temperatures and underwent monotonic increases in conformational disorder as the temperature was raised. CD spectra indicated higher content of alpha-helical structure of proteins in RSR than in FSR. Increasing temperature caused diminution of alpha-helix content. Relatively large decreases in ellipticity were observed between 20 degrees C and 40 degrees C for FSR and 30 degrees C and 60 degrees C for RSR. Measurements of intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence as a function of temperature gave similar results for membrane proteins in both FSR and RSR. The rate of change of tryptophan fluorescence and fluorescence lifetimes was constant over the temperature ranges studied, and no abrupt shifts in fluorescence occurred in the temperature regions where ellipticity decreased rapidly.

Abstract
Anion binding sites on the membranes of sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles can be characterized with the aid of 35Cl-NMR. Titration experiments with a series of different anions reveal that multivalent, phosphate-like anions bind much stronger to SR vesicles than monovalent anions like halides whereas oxalate seems to have an intermediate position. The binding strength decreases with decreasing ionic radius according to the following sequence: vanadate greater than phosphate greater than sulfate much greater than iodide greater than oxalate greater than bromide greater than chloride much greater than fluoride. This is also reflected by increasing dissociation constants. Although vanadate in absolute terms replaces much more chloride than either, phosphate or sulfate, their dissociation constants are very similar. This implicates a special binding mechanism for vanadate. Phosphate analoguous compounds like pyridoxalphosphate-6-azophenyl-2'-sulfonic acid and its 4'-nitroderivative show the strongest binding.

Abstract
The Ca2(+)-ATPase of skeletal sarcoplasmic reticulum was purified and reconstituted in the presence of phosphatidyl choline using the freeze-thaw sonication technique. The effect of incorporation of negatively charged phospholipids, phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylinositol phosphate, into the phosphatidylcholine proteoliposomes was investigated. Various ratios of phosphatidylserine or phosphatidylinositol phosphate to phosphatidylcholine were used, while the total amount of phospholipid in the reconstituted vesicles was kept constant. Enrichment of phosphatidylcholine proteoliposomes by phosphatidylserine or phosphatidylinositol phosphate was associated with activation of Ca2(+)-uptake and Ca2(+)-ATPase activities. The highest activation was obtained at a 50:50 molar ratio of phosphatidylserine:phosphatidylcholine and at a 10:90 molar ratio of phosphatidylinositol phosphate:phosphatidylcholine. The initial rates of Ca2(+)-uptake obtained at 1 microM Ca2+ were 2.6 +/- 0.1 mumol/min per mg of phosphatidylserine:phosphatidylcholine proteoliposomes and 1.5 +/- 0.1 mumol/min per mg of phosphatidylinositol phosphate:phosphatidylcholine proteoliposomes, compared to 0.9 +/- 0.05 mumol/min per mg of phosphatidylcholine proteoliposomes. These findings suggest that negatively charged phospholipids may be involved in the activation of the reconstituted skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2(+)-pump.

Abstract
cDNA encoding Ca2+-ATPase was cloned from a chicken skeletal muscle library. The cDNA (termed FCa) comprised 3,239 base pairs, including an open reading frame encoding 994 amino acids which showed the highest degree of homology with the adult rabbit fast-twitch Ca2+-ATPase isoform (C. J. Brandl, S. de Leon, D. R. Martin, and D. H. MacLennan, J. Biol. Chem. 262:3768-3774, 1987). Radiolabeled FCa hybridized to a 3.2-kilobase transcript in chicken skeletal muscle RNA but not to cardiac muscle RNA, which confirmed its identity as encoding the fast Ca2+-ATPase isoenzyme. FCa was transfected into the mouse myogenic line C2C12, from which a protein of 100 kilodaltons was immunopurified by using a monoclonal antibody specific for the avian fast Ca2+-ATPase. Immunofluorescence microscopy of a line (designated C2FCa2) stably expressing the avian Ca2+-ATPase localized the protein to the nuclear envelope and a population of cytoplasmic vesicles. A similar pattern was observed when C2FCa2 cells were stained with DiOC6(3), a cyanine dye that labels endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria (M. Terasaki, J. Song, J. R. Wong, M. J. Weiss, and L. B. Chen, Cell 38:101-108, 1984). We conclude that the avian Ca2+-ATPase fast isoform is expressed and correctly targeted to the endoplasmic reticulum in mouse C2C12 cells.

Abstract
The expression of fast and slow isoforms of the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase was studied in the developing chick embryo and in tissue-cultured myotubes. Monoclonal antibodies specific for each isoform were used as probes of protein expression. Analysis of expression of Ca2+-ATPase isoforms in chick thigh muscles by immunofluorescence microscopy revealed that all muscle fibers expressed both isoforms during their development. Primary generation muscle fibers expressed predominantly the slow isoform. Secondary generation fibers expressed both isoforms at comparable levels. Loss of the "inappropriate" isoforms occurred late in embryonic development. Immunoblot analysis of embryonic thigh muscle proteins indicated that the expression of the slow isoform varied little from embryonic Day 6 (ED6) to ED19, while expression of the fast isoform increased dramatically just prior to ED19. Tissue-cultured myotubes derived from ED12 chick thigh muscle myoblasts, plated at high density, expressed both isoforms of the Ca2+-ATPase at very similar levels. Clonal analysis of myoblasts taken from early (ED6) and late (ED12) chick thigh muscles showed that all muscle colonies expressed both forms, consistent with in vivo results. Fiber-type specific isoforms of the Ca2+-ATPase and myosin heavy chain are not coordinately expressed in developing chick skeletal muscle.

Abstract
A phenol-acetic acid-urea polyacrylamide gel electrophoretic system (PAU-PAGE) was simplified by adaptation to a slab gel format, allowing the simultaneous comparison of up to 12 samples. The system fractionated most proteins according to molecular mass, although chemical reduction was required since certain proteins (e.g., bovine serum albumin) showed reduction-dependent shifts in mobility. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-PAGE of partially purified membrane proteins can be adversely affected by protein aggregation and proteolysis. PAU-PAGE, which solubilized aqueous insoluble proteins and rapidly inactivated proteases, was useful for assessing the polypeptide composition of plasma membrane preparations.

Abstract
The distribution of phospholipids and fatty acyl composition of individual phospholipids in sarcoplasmic reticulum from fast skeletal muscle of hypothyroid and euthyroid (control) rats have been determined. Hypothyroidism resulted in a 24% decrease in the phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) content and a concomitant increase in the phosphatidylcholine (PC) content of the sarcoplasmic reticulum. The amounts of other phospholipids and cholesterol remained unaffected. Fatty acyl compositions of PE and PC were quantitatively different, but hypothyroidism affected these compositions similarly. Changes included an increase in the proportions of docosahexaenoic (22:6(n - 3)), arachidonic (20:4(n - 6)), icosatrienoic (20:3(n - 6)) and stearic (18:0) acids and a decrease in those of linoleic (18:2(n - 6)), palmitic (16:0) and oleic (18:1(n - 9)) acids. The effects of hypothyroidism on the phospholipid distribution could be reversed by treatment of hypothyroid animals with thyroid hormone for a period of 14 days (10 micrograms T3/100 g body weight per 2 days). The fatty acyl composition of the phospholipids was also restored to the euthyroid values by this treatment. Exceptions were 18:2 and 22:6 in PE, in which case reversal was significant but not complete, and 18:2, 20:4 and 22:6 in PC. The levels of these acids in PC were not reversed to the euthyroid values after the 14-day treatment, but rather the opposite occurred.

Abstract
Calcium uptake and (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase were measured in sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) vesicles prepared from muscles of eight patients susceptible to malignant hyperthermia (MH) and eight control subjects. Intracellular resting free calcium level of some of the studied subjects was also determined. Both calcium uptake capacity and (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity were significantly lower in SR prepared from MH-susceptible patients than from normal subjects. Besides, in these MH-susceptible patients myoplasmic free Ca2+ was increased. These results corroborate previous suggestions that abnormal function of the SR membrane was related to the MH syndrome.

Abstract
Purified sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles from normal and dystrophic chicken skeletal muscle have been isolated by a procedure employing pressure disruption of a microsomal suspension. The dystrophic sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) exhibited reduced Ca++ transport and phosphoenzyme formation, but the Ca++-ATPase activity was normal. Normal and dystrophic SR showed similar lipid profiles, except for a significant increase in free fatty acids in the dystrophic SR. Investigations involving the interaction of oleic acid with normal SR showed fatty acids can induce conditions similar to those found in dystrophic SR.

Abstract
Microsomes isolated from cat pancreas were incubated with [gamma-32P]ATP in the presence or absence of Ca2+. Following fractionation of phosphoproteins by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis a single microsomal protein with an apparent molecular mass of 77,000 dalton (77K) was found to be phosphorylated in a Ca2+-dependent mechanism. Maximal phosphate incorporation into the 77K protein was observed at 10(-6) mol/l [Ca2+] and was 4-fold higher than in the absence of Ca2+. The 77K phosphoprotein showed characteristic of a stable phosphoester rather than an acyl phosphate. Measurable phosphate incorporation into the 77K protein was noted 5 s following addition of [gamma-32P]ATP and reached maximum at 9-10th min. The lack of effect of exogenous cyclic AMP, cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, calmodulin, the calmodulin antagonist trifluoperazine, leupeptin and the suppression of phosphorylation by some phospholipid-interacting drugs suggested that the 77K protein is a substrate for cyclic AMP- and calmodulin-independent, Ca2+-activated phospholipid-sensitive kinase activity. Centrifugation of the pancreatic homogenate in a ficoll-sucrose density gradient indicated that both the 77K protein and enzyme were associated in a fraction enriched in rough endoplasmic reticulum.

Abstract
Isolated sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) vesicles with polymerized calcium pump protein were freeze-dried and rotary shadowed following uranyl acetate stabilization. This technique allows direct observation of a single side of the vesicle without requiring optical filtering. The heads of individual ATPase molecules, projecting above the cytoplasmic surface, are clearly resolved in the replicas. Ca ATPase molecules form extensive arrays in vanadate-treated, rabbit SR vesicles and in gently isolated, native SR vesicles from scallop. Gentle isolation results in limited areas of orderly structure in native SR isolated from vertebrate muscles. Special attention is given to the effect of various shadow thicknesses on the appearance of the heads. This information is essential to the interpretation of images in the accompanying paper (Franzini-Armstrong, C., and D.J. Ferguson, 1985, Biophys. J., 48:607-615).

Abstract
The detailed profile structure of the isolated sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane was studied utilizing a combination of X-ray and neutron diffraction. The water and lipid profile structures within the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane were determined at 28 A resolution directly by neutron diffraction and selective deuteration of the water and lipid components. The previously determined electron density profile structure of the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane at 12 A resolution was subjected to model refinement analysis constrained by the neutron diffraction results, thereby providing unique higher resolution calculated lipid and protein profile structures. It was found that the lipid bilayer profile structure of the isolated sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane is asymmetric, primarily the result of more lipid residing in the inner versus the outer monolayer of the sarcoplasmic reticulum lipid bilayer. The asymmetry in the lipid composition was necessarily coincident with a complimentary asymmetry in the protein mass distribution between the two monolayers in order to preserve the overall cross-sectional area of lipid and protein throughout the lipid bilayer region of the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane profile structure. Approximately 50% of the mass of the total protein was found to be localized externally to the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane lipid bilayer protruding from the outer lipid monolayer into the extravesicular medium. The structural features of the protein protrusion appear to be rather variable depending upon the environment of the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane. This highly asymmetric structural organization of the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane profile is consistent with its primary function of unidirectional calcium transport.

Abstract
The effects of hypothyroidism on the Ca2+-transport capabilities of fast-twitch muscle (m. gastrocnemius) of the rat were studied in whole-muscle homogenate and isolated sarcoplasmic reticulum. Hypothyroidism did not affect the percentage recovery and the vesicle composition of the sarcoplasmic reticulum fraction, the total lipid and phospholipid-to-protein ratios and the protein composition (both qualitative and quantitative). Also the Ca2+-loading capacity of purified sarcoplasmic reticulum, in the presence of oxalate, and the Ca2+ and pH dependence of both the uptake reaction and the coupled ATPase activity were unchanged. However, the homogenate Ca2+-loading capacity and the Ca2+-uptake activity were depressed, as was the yield of purified sarcoplasmic reticulum. The results indicate a 31% reduction of the entire sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane system per volume of muscle. Ca2+/ATP coupling ratios, determined in purified sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles by measurement of initial rates of net Ca2+ uptake and Ca2+-Mg2+-dependent hydrolysis of ATP, were found to be 1.48 +/- 0.06 and 2.08 +/- 0.05 in the euthyroid and hypothyroid groups, respectively. Identical values were obtained with a recently described Ca2+-pulse method (Meltzer, S. and Berman, M.C. (1984) Anal. Biochem. 138, 458-464), i.e., 1.53 +/- 0.06 and 2.01 +/- 0.03 in the euthyroid and hypothyroid groups, respectively. Passive Ca2+ efflux from sarcoplasmic reticulum was the same in both groups (30 nmol/mg per min), as was the fraction of vesicles that did not show net uptake of Ca2+ (less than 10%), which makes it unlikely that these parameters provide an explanation for the differences in the coupling ratio. The energy of activation of the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase was increased in hypothyroidism, which may point to changes in the phospholipid environment of the enzyme. Physiological concentrations of T3 and T4 had no effect on the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase in vitro, but all observed changes in the hypothyroid state could be reversed within 14 days by administration of T3 to hypothyroid animals. Approximate calculations indicate that the observed changes in the sarcoplasmic reticulum as a result of thyroid-hormone depletion may contribute significantly to the decrease in relaxation rate and the decrease in energy consumption during contraction.

Abstract
A membrane fraction isolated from lactating murine mammary tissue and enriched for the Golgi membrane marker enzyme galactosyltransferase exhibited Ca2+-stimulated ATPase activity (Ca-ATPase) in 20 microM-free Mg2+ and 10 microM-MgATP, with an apparent Km for Ca2+ of 0.8 microM. Exogenous calmodulin did not enhance Ca2+ stimulation, nor could Ca-ATPase activities be detected in millimolar total Mg2+ and ATP. When assayed with micromolar Mg2+ and MgATP the Ca-ATPases of skeletal-muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum and of calmodulin-enriched red blood cell plasma membranes were half-maximally activated by 0.1 microM- and 0.6 microM-Ca2+ respectively. All three Ca-ATPases were inhibited by similar micromolar concentrations of trifluoperazine, but the Golgi activity was unaffected by quercetin in concentrations which completely inhibited both the sarcoplasmic-reticulum and red-blood-cell enzymes. The results are consistent with the hypothesis that the high-affinity Ca-ATPase is responsible for the ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport exhibited by Golgi-enriched vesicles derived from lactating mammary gland [Neville, Selker, Semple & Watters (1981) J. Membr. Biol. 61, 97-105; West (1981) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 673, 374-386].

Abstract
The total phospholipid content and distribution of phospholipid species between the outer and inner monolayers of the isolated sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane was measured by phospholipase A2 activities and neutron diffraction. Phospholipase measurements showed that specific phospholipid species were asymmetric in their distribution between the outer and inner monolayers of the sarcoplasmic reticulum lipid bilayer; phosphatidylcholine (PC) was distributed 48/52 +/- 2% between the outer and inner monolayer of the sarcoplasmic reticulum bilayer, 69% of the phosphatidyl-ethanolamine (PE) resided mainly in the outer monolayer of the bilayer, 85% of the phosphatidylserine (PS) and 88% of the phosphatidylinositol (PI) were localized predominantly in the inner monolayer. The total phospholipid distribution determined by these measurements was 48/52 +/- 2% for the outer/inner monolayer of the sarcoplasmic reticulum lipid bilayer. Sarcoplasmic reticulum phospholipids were biosynthetically deuterated and exchanged into isolated vesicles with both a specific lecithin and a general exchange protein. Neutron diffraction measurements directly provided lipid distribution profiles for both PC and the total lipid content in the intact sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane. The outer/inner monolayer distribution for PC was 47/53 +/- 1%, in agreement with phospholipase measurements, while that for the total lipid was 46/54 +/- 1%, similar to the phospholipase measurements. These neutron diffraction results regarding the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane bilayer were used in model calculations for decomposing the electron-density profile structure (10 A resolution) of isolated sarcoplasmic reticulum previously determined by X-ray diffraction into structures for the separate membrane components. These structure studies showed that the protein profile structure within the membrane lipid bilayer was asymmetric, complementary to the asymmetric lipid structure. Thus, the total phospholipid asymmetry obtained by two independent methods was small but consistent with a complementary asymmetric protein structure, and may be related to the highly vectorial functional properties of the calcium pump ATPase protein in the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane.

Abstract
Sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles were solubilized stepwise by the nonionic detergent octaethyleneglycol monododecyl ether; 31P NMR enabled the extent of phospholipid solubilization to be monitored by following the conversion of the broad resonance peak characterizing the phospholipids inserted in the bilayer to the narrow resonance signal characterizing phospholipids inserted into a mixed micelle. Up to 0.25 g detergent/g protein could be incorporated into the membrane without solubilization. Higher detergent concentrations of up to 1.5-2 g detergent/g protein led to gradual solubilization. Although the method allows us to monitor the extent of solubilization of individual phospholipid classes, there was no evidence of either preferential solubilization or retention of a specific class of phospholipids.

Abstract
A procedure for the isolation of sarcoplasmic reticulum from winter flounder (Pseudopleuronectes americanus) resulted in a fraction with a specific activity of lipid peroxidation two to three times that of previous preparations. In addition, good stability of the NADH-dependent lipid peroxidative activity was achieved. There appeared to be minimal contamination of the preparation with lysosomes and mitochondria. The flounder sarcoplasmic reticulum was highly active with respect to ATPase and calcium uptake. The membrane fraction contained 43% lipid and 57% protein; 60% of the lipids were phospholipids. Phosphatidylcholine was the major phospholipid present.

Abstract
Sarcoplasmic reticulum is a specialized membrane system in muscle involved in the energized uptake, storage, and release of Ca2+. The sulfhydryl content of normal and reconstituted sarcoplasmic reticulum was measured using Ellman reagent. For both preparations, we find 17 and 26 mol sulfhydryls per mole calcium pump protein assayed in the absence and presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. The release of Ca2+ from sarcoplasmic reticulum, which triggers muscle contraction, likely involves the regulation of a channel. This report deals with an experimental approach to studying the Ca2+ release in isolated sarcoplasmic reticulum. We find that sulfhydryl agents of which water-soluble mercurials were most effective induce Ca2+ release. Chlorpromazine acts synergistically with the sulfhydryl reagents. Ca2+ release under optimal conditions is very rapid compared with calcium leakage from preloaded but untreated sarcoplasmic reticulum. The imposed rapid release of Ca2+ is suggestive of the opening of a channel. Ca2+ release by mercurials is retained in reconstituted sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane vesicles.

Abstract
When compared to that from sham-operated controls, sarcoplasmic reticulum isolated from skeletal muscle of uremic rabbits had a lower rate of calcium uptake and storing capacity. In vivo administration of 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol [1,25(OH)2D3] restored the values in uremic animals toward normal. To obtain information about the mechanisms responsible for these differences, phosphorylation of the calcium transport ATPase was studied. The steady-state levels of phosphoprotein in uremic membranes were lower and returned to normal when the secosteroid was administered. Electrophoresis of the membranes phosphorylated with 32P-inosine triphosphate (32P-ITP) showed that the differences were related to a 100,000 dalton protein. The rate of phosphoprotein formation, determined with 32P-ITP and at 0 degrees C, was considerably lower in uremic than in control animals. Pretreatment with 1,25(OH)2D3 prevented this change. The hypothesis is advanced that the vitamin D metabolite affects the steady-state concentration and rate constant of formation of active sites in the Ca-ATPase. These results may partly explain the altered Ca transport function of the sarcoplasmic reticulum in experimental uremia.

Abstract
We have recently reported on the isolation and characterization of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) from normal and dystrophic mice. These purified fractions were similar in functional characteristics. We now present an analysis of the lipids in our purified SR. The lipids were generally found to be similar. Most of the differences found between the two preparations were consistent with a somewhat greater surface membrane contamination in SR fractions from dystrophic mice. This was so with respect to cholesterol content and fatty acid composition. A small decrease, however, in content of phosphatidylcholine was observed in the dystrophic SR fractions. Fluorescence polarization studies using the probe 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene in sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes over the temperature range 3 to 38 C showed slightly greater anisotropy in the dystrophic fractions, which is also consistent with a greater contamination of this fraction by surface membrane elements (sarcolemma and transverse tubule).

Abstract
1. Microsomes were isolated from rabbit fast-twitch and slow-twitch muscle and were separated into heavy and light fractions by centrifugation in a linear (0.3-2m) sucrose density gradient. The membrane origin of microsomal vesicles was investigated by studying biochemical markers of the sarcoplasmic-reticulum membranes and of surface and T-tubular membranes, as well as their freeze-fracture properties. 2. Polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis showed differences in the Ca(2+)-dependent ATPase/calsequestrin ratio between heavy and light fractions, which were apparently consistent with their respective origin from cisternal and longitudinal sarcoplasmic reticulum, as well as unrelated differences, such as peptides specific to slow-muscle microsomes (mol.wts. 76000, 60000, 56000 and 45000). 3. Freeze-fracture electron microscopy of muscle microsomes demonstrated that vesicles truly derived from the sarcoplasmic reticulum, with an average density of 9nm particles on the concave face of about 3000/mum(2) for both fast and slow muscle, were admixed with vesicles with particle densities below 1000/mum(2). 4. As determined in the light fractions, the sarcoplasmic-reticulum vesicles accounted for 84% and 57% of the total number of microsomal vesicles, for fast and slow muscle respectively. These values agreed closely with the percentage values of Ca(2+)-dependent ATPase protein obtained by gel densitometry. 5. The T-tubular origin of vesicles with a smooth concave fracture face in slow-muscle microsomes is supported by their relative high content in total phospholipid and cholesterol, compared with the microsomes of fast muscle, and by other correlative data, such as the presence of (Na(+)+K(+))-dependent ATPase activity and of low amounts of Na(+)-dependent membrane phosphorylation. 6. Among intrinsic sarcoplasmic-reticulum membrane proteins, a proteolipid of mol.wt. 12000 is shown to be identical in the microsomes of both fast and slow muscle and the Ca(2+)-dependent ATPase to be antigenically and catalytically different, though electrophoretically homogeneous. 7. Basal Mg(2+)-activated ATPase activity was found to be high in light microsomes from slow muscle, but its identification with an enzyme different from the Ca(2+)-dependent ATPase is still not conclusive. 8. Enzyme proteins that are suggested to be specific to slow-muscle longitudinal sarcoplasmic reticulum are the flavoprotein NADH:cytochrome b(5) reductase (mol.wt. 32000), cytochrome b(5) (mol.wt. 17000) and the stearoyl-CoA desaturase, though essentially by criteria of plausibility.

Abstract
The ATP-induced Ca2+ accumulation efficiency and rates of Ca2+ uptake of the reconstituted sarcoplasmic reticulum (RSR) model membrane system were measured over an extended range of lipid-to-protein (L/P) molar ratios and were compared to those of isolated light sarcoplasmic reticulum (LSR). Highly purified sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), dissociated in the presence of deoxycholate, was reconstituted for several L/P ratios, according to the same procedure, forming closed membranes vesicles composed of greater than 95% Ca2+ pump protein and SR lipids which were capable of ATP-induced Ca2+ accumulation in the absence of oxalate or other Ca2+ precipitating agents. This suggests that dissociation of SR and reconstitution to form RSR does not significantly affect the ability of the Ca2+ pump protein incorporated into the SR lipid bilayer to establish Ca2+ gradients. Electron micrographs of fixed and stained dispersions of RSR revealed a structural organization of the membrane that was dependent upon the L/P molar ratio. RSR with L/P greater than 88 were composed of closed vesicles whose membranes stained asymmetrically, similar to that observed for LSR. Closed vesicles of RSR with L/P less than 88 were composed of membrane that stained symmetrically. In addition, reconstituted SR preparations with well-defined L/P molar ratios greater than 88 possess a functional behavior similar to that of LSR (in the absence of oxalate, energy efficiencies are 60-70% and apparent initial uptake rates are 80% that of isolated LSR controls); RSR preparations with L/P less than 88 are characterized by significantly depressed values of the energy efficiencies and apparent initial uptake rates especially at low L/P ratios. Thus, we are the first to report a reconstituted SR model membrane system capable of attaining rates of Ca2+ uptake comparable to isolated LSR controls at comparable L/P ratios in the absence of oxalate or other Ca2+ precipitating agents.

Abstract
The profile structures of functional reconstituted sarcoplasmic reticulum (RSR) membranes were investigated as a function of the lipid/protein (L/P) ratio via x-ray diffraction studies of hydrated oriented multilayers of these membranes to a resolution of 10-15 A, and neutron diffraction studies on these multilayers to lower resolutions. Our results at this stage of investigation indicate that reconstitution of SR with variable amounts of Ca2+ pump protein for L/P ratios greater than 88 results in closed membraneous vesicles in which the Ca2+ pump protein is distributed asymmetrically in the membrane profile; a majority of the protein density is contained primarily in the extravesicular half of the membrane profile whereas a relatively lesser portion of the protein spans the hydrocarbon core of the RSR membranes. These RSR membranes are functionally similar and resemble isolated light sarcoplasmic reticulum in both profile structure and function at a comparable L/P ratio. Reconstitution with greater amounts of Ca2+ pump protein (e. g. L/P approximately 50-60) resulted in substantially less functional membranes with a dramatically thicker profile structure.
