[Isolation of highly active preparations of sarcoplasmic reticulum and Ca2-dependent ATPase from cardiac muscle].
A microsomal preparation with a high ability for Ca2+ uptake has been isolated from pigeon heart. A method of further purification of Ca2+-accumulating system of heart, based on the ability of sarcoplasmic reticulum for the energy-dependent Ca2+ accumulation in the presence of oxalate, has been developed. Upon centrifugation in the gradient of sucrose and KCl concentration the fragments of sarcoplasmic reticulum, rendered "heavy" by calcium oxalate, can be separated from foreign cell membranes. The main component of heart "calcium pump" is Ca2+-dependent ATPase (making up to about 50% of all proteins of the purified reticulum), having a molecular weight of 100.000--105.000. Specific activity of heart Ca2+-ATPase as well as the ability of purified heart sarcoplasmic reticulum for Ca2+ uptake are only slightly less than those of the skeletal muscle reticulum. The data obtained suggest that heart sarcoplasmic reticulum may be efficient for providing heart muscle relaxation.
