The Mg2+-ATPase of rabbit skeletal-muscle transverse tubule is a highly glycosylated multiple-subunit enzyme

Abstract: The Mg2+-ATPase present in rabbit skeletal-muscle transverse tubules is an integral membrane enzyme which has been solubilized and purified previously in this laboratory [Kirley (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 12682-12689]. The present study indicates that, in addition to the approx. 100 kDa protein (distinct from the sarcoplasmic-reticulum Ca2+-ATPase) seen previously to co-purify with the Mg2+-ATPase activity, there are also proteins having molecular masses of 160, 70 and 43 kDa. The 70 and 43 kDa glycosylated pr… Show more

“…The results presented here and in other studies [5][6][7]11,21] indicate that the chicken muscle ecto-ATPase is an enzyme that can be finely regulated and that exhibits several unusual enzymic properties. With the sole exception of chicken brain enzyme [7], these uncommon properties of the avian muscle ecto-ATPase are not shared by ecto-NTPDases from other chicken tissues [8,21] or by the ecto-ATPases present in membrane preparations isolated from the skeletal muscle of other species [4,18,23]. Of the modulators that affect chicken ecto-ATPase, Con A is of particular interest because it was found to abolish its anomalous behaviour, converting the enzyme to Michaelis-Menten-type properties [5].…”

“…The tissues were excised and membranes prepared from these tissues as described previously (Stout & Kirley, 1994b). Rabbit skeletal muscle transverse tubule membranes (Kirley, 1991) and chicken gizzard membranes (Stout & Kirley, 1994a) were processed and prepared as described previously. Protein concentrations of all the resultant membranes were determined by the Bio-Rad dye binding assay, using the modification of Stoscheck (1990) and bovine serum albumin as the standard.…”

“…Cross-Linking/Mg-ATPase Assay/Western Analysis. Solubilized chicken gizzard or rabbit t-tubule protein [membrane protein was solubilized with digitonin as described previously (Stout & Kirley, 1994a)] or membrane-bound chicken gizzard protein was cross-linked with DTSSP, DSP, or BS 3 basically as described previously (Kirley, 1991). As a control for the effects of lysine modification in the absence of cross-linking, sulfo-NHS-acetate was employed as a monofunctional reagent very similar in structure and specificity to each half of the divalent DTSSP cross-linker.…”

“…Gels were either 0.75 mm (analytical) or 1.5 mm (native) thick. The native gel consisted of a 6% Laemmli resolving gel containing 0.1% digitonin and no SDS as described previously (28). The gels were either stained with silver according to Ansorge (29) or electroblotted onto 0.2-f.Lm polyvinylidene fluoride membranes for 2 h at 33 V in 10 mM CAPS buffer, pH 11.0 (30).…”
