Mg2+ effects on SR Ca2+ exchange in vesicles may guide mechanistic studies; leaves open relevance to cardiac Ca2+ handling in vivo.
Mg2+ is essential for the exposure of the bound Ca2+ of the phosphoenzyme to the internal medium in sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles.
Takakuwa et al. (1982) studied this question.
