ABSTRACT
The human plasma membrane Ca2+ pump (isoform 4xb) was expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and purified by calmodulin-affinity chromatography. Under optimal conditions the recombinant enzyme (yPMCA) hydrolyzed ATP in a Ca2+ dependent manner at a rate of 15 micromol/mg/min. The properties of yPMCA were compared to those of the PMCA purified from human red cells (ePMCA). The mobility of yPMCA in SDS-PAGE was the expected for the hPMCA4xb protein but slightly lower than that of ePMCA. Both enzymes achieved maximal activity when supplemented with acidic phospholipids. However, while ePMCA in mixed micelles of phosphatidylcholine-detergent had 30% of its maximal activity, the yPMCA enzyme was nearly inactive. Increasing the phosphatidylcholine content of the micelles did not increase the activity of yPMCA but the activity in the presence of phosphatidylcholine improved by partially removing the detergent. The reactivation of the detergent solubilized yPMCA required specifically acidic lipids and, as judged by the increase in the level of phosphoenzyme, it involved the increase in the amount of active enzyme. These results indicate that the function of yPMCA is highly sensitive to delipidation and the restitution of acidic lipids is needed for a functional enzyme.
