Characterisation of the reaction of 1,4-phenylenebismaleimide with Ca²⁺-ATPase and elucidation of the intramolecular crosslink site
The SR Ca²⁺-ATPase is an ATP driven pump that removes calcium from the sarcoplasm and myofibrils to allow muscle relaxation. The sulfhydryl crosslinker, 1,4- phenylenebismaleimide, reacts with Ca²⁺-ATPase (110 kD) to form a species with an apparent molecular weight of 125 kD, as well as dimers and h...
