title: Intestinal basolateral membrane Ca-ATPase activity with properties distinct from those of the Ca-pump.
abstract: The Ca-pump in rat intestinal basolateral membranes had been studied previously as vesicular ATP-dependent Ca-uptake. In the present studies, Ca-stimulated ATP hydrolysis (Ca-ATPase activity) was measured and found to differ from the Ca-pump in having higher activity and being insensitive to vanadate. Whereas the pump was specific for ATP, hydrolytic activity was found with ATP, GTP or ADP but not with AMP or p-nitro-phenyl-phosphate. In contrast to Ca-pump activity, Ca-ATPase activities were similar for different intestinal segments, for duodenal villus/crypt cell-fractions and for vitamin D-deficient animals. Thus, as usually measured, intestinal basolateral membrane Ca-ATPase activity is not equivalent to the Ca-pump.
