Abstract excerpt
Mutational analysis of amino acid residues lining the thapsigargin (TG) binding cavity at the interface of the membrane surface and cytosolic headpiece was performed in the Ca(2+) ATPase (SERCA-1). Specific mutations such as F256V, I765A, and Y837A reduce not only the apparent affinity of the ATPase for TG but also the maximal inhibitory effect. The effect of mutations is dependent on the type and size of the...
