Ca2+-activated ATPase in microsomes from human liver.
Human liver microsomal fractions exhibit ATP-supported Ca2+ uptake which is half-maximal at 7 X 10(-7) M free Ca2+ in the presence of oxalate. Ca2+ uptake is coupled to a Ca2+-stimulated ATPase activity, which is half-maximal at 4 X 10(-7) M free Ca2+. Catalysis involves formation of an Mr = 116,000 phosphoprotein with stability characteristics of an acylphosphate compound suggested to represent a phosphoryl protein intermediate of the Ca2+-ATPase. Phosphorylation is half-maximal at about 10(-6) M free Ca2+. The Mr = 116,000 protein is highly susceptible to proteolysis with trypsin. The phosphorylated active site was localized in an Mr = 58,000 primary tryptic fragment and in an Mr = 34,000 subfragment. Analyses on the mechanism of the Ca2+-ATPase suggest the following reaction sequence: formation of an ADP-reactive phosphoenzyme (Mr = 116,000) with bound Ca2+, which can transphosphorylate its Pi to ADP, giving rise to synthesis of ATP; reversible transformation of the ADP-reactive phosphoenzyme into an isomer without bound Ca2+, which cannot further react with ADP; hydrolytical cleavage, probably catalyzed by Mg2+, of the ADP-unreactive phosphoenzyme with liberation of Pi. Comparison with the Ca2+-transport ATPase in sarcoplasmic reticulum of skeletal muscle led us to suggest that the Mr = 116,000 Ca2+-ATPase belongs to the class of E1P . E2P-ATPases and might be operative as a Ca2+-transport ATPase at the level of the endoplasmic reticulum in human liver.
