title: [Extraction of plasma membranes from smooth muscle cells of the rabbit small intestine].
abstract: A method is offered for isolation of subcellular fractions from small intestinal smooth muscle cells enriched by plasma membranes (PM). The method is based on differential centrifugation over sucrose density gradient. According to the localization of marker enzymes, the membrane fraction obtained with the use of 30% sucrose is considered to be optimal. The PM fraction is superior to the homogenate 10-fold on the average in the magnitude of Na, K-ATPase, 17-fold in Mg2+-ATPase, and 15-fold in that of 5'-nucleotidase activity. ATPase of PM is activated by Ca2+ in micro- and millimolar concentrations. It is suggested that Mg2+-dependent Ca-activated ATPase of PM is related to the Ca2+ content control in the cell.
