title: Inhibition of calmodulin-dependent and independent cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum activities by R24571.
abstract: R24571 a derivative of the antimycotic miconazole, appears to be 5 to 8 times more potent than trifluoperazine in its ability to inhibit the calmodulin-dependent phosphorylation of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles. The cAMP-dependent protein kinase mediated phosphorylation of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum was not affected by R24571. Sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca-dependent ATPase phosphoprotein intermediate formation was inhibited by R24571 concentrations that were 20 to 30 times greater than those required to inhibit calmodulin-dependent phosphorylation. However, both Ca-dependent and independent ATPase activities, as well as calcium uptake, were inhibited by R24571 concentrations that were similar to, or less than, those concentrations required to inhibit calmodulin-dependent sarcoplasmic reticulum phosphorylation. These results indicate the caution that should be exercised in using this new compound in assessing the possible involvement of calmodulin in other membrane processes.
