title: Phosphorylated intermediates of two hepatic microsomal ATPases.
abstract: The hepatic microsomal Ca2+- and Mg2+-dependent ATPase phosphoenzyme intermediates were distinguished by using the chelators EGTA and CDTA (trans-cyclohexane-1,2-diamine-NNN'N'-tetra-acetic acid). The Ca2+-ATPase intermediate is a hydroxylamine-labile base-labile 125 000-Mr phosphoprotein. The Mg2+-ATPase intermediate is a hydroxylamine-stable base-stable 30 000-Mr phosphoprotein. This enzyme intermediate probably reflects the large basal ATPase activity of hepatic microsomal fraction. It is dependent on Mg2+, since formation of the phosphoenzyme is abolished in the presence of CDTA. Under these conditions, the basal ATPase activity is dramatically decreased. These data demonstrate two separate and distinct enzymes which are responsible for the two ATPase activities of hepatic microsomal fraction. Furthermore, these data indicate that more meaningful data about the microsomal Ca2+-ATPase might be obtained if the free ion concentrations are controlled with CDTA.
