Abstract excerpt
Mutant cDNAs encoding h4 plasma membrane Ca(2+) pumps with deletions in the N-terminal segment have been constructed and expressed in COS cells. As judged by immunoblotting, each construct was expressed at a high level similar to that of the wild-type enzyme. The removal of the first six amino acids had no effect on the Ca(2+) transport activity, but deletions in the segment 15-75 reduced the activity to...
