Two different conformations of chemically equivalent Ca2+-ATPase molecules in the sarcoplasmic reticulum have been shown to non- and positive cooperatively bind two calcium ions, respectively (Nakamura, J.(1994) J. Biol. Chem. 269, 30822-30827). At pH 7.40, these ATPase molecules split into E1 (high affinity state for calcium) and E2 (low affinity state for calcium), respectively, before calcium binding. At this pH, calcium binding to the monomeric ATPase, solubilized with dodecyloctaethylenglycol monoether, was studied by examining 45Ca2+ binding to the ATPase and calcium dependences of its phosphorylation, fluorescence intensity, ATP-hydrolysis at of and the solubilized ATPase molecules in E2 and cooperatively bind of of the ATPase with calcium affinity of of calcium at the ATPase molecules to the of the of the binding and the to Two different conformations of chemically equivalent Ca2+-ATPase molecules in the sarcoplasmic reticulum have been shown to non- and positive cooperatively bind two calcium ions, respectively (Nakamura, J.(1994) J.
