title: Phosphorylation of chloride-ATPase reconstituted from Aplysia gut.
abstract: The present study was primarily done to compare cation-ATPase phosphorylation kinetics with an anion-ATPase's phosphorylation kinetics because of the paucity of information in this area. Utilizing a proteolipsomal preparation containing Cl(-)-ATPase from Aplysia gut, it was demonstrated that phosphorylation of this P-type ATPase was absolutely dependent upon Mg(2+). In organic phosphate concentrations directly (P(i)) enhanced phosphoprotein formation in the presence of increasing concentrations of Mg(2+). It was also shown that the calculated rate constant for E(1)-P formation was 26/sec. This approximated E(1)-P rate constant values for other electrogenic, uniport P-type ATPases, and therefore it was concluded from the results that the anion-ATPase phosphorylation kinetics did not greatly differ from cation-ATPase phosphorylation kinetics.
