| Abstract | The use of a microsomal preparation from skeletal muscle revealed that both Ca$^{2+}$ transport and Ca$^{2+}$-dependent ATP hydrolysis linked to Sarco-Endoplasmic Reticulum Ca$^{2+}$–ATPase are inhibited by epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG). A half-maximal effect was achieved at approx. 12 μM. The presence of the galloyl group was essential for the inhibitory effect of the catechin. The relative inhibition of the Ca$^{2+}$-ATPase activity decreased when the Ca$^{2+}$ concentration was raised but not when the ATP concentration was elevated. Data on the catalytic cycle indicated inhibition of maximal Ca$^{2+}$ binding and a decrease in Ca$^{2+}$ binding affinity when measured in the absence of ATP. Moreover, the addition of ATP to samples in the presence of EGCG and Ca$^{2+}$ led to an early increase in phosphoenzyme followed by a time-dependent decay that was faster when the drug concentration was raised. However, phosphorylation following the addition of ATP plus Ca$^{2+}$ led to a slow rate of phosphoenzyme accumulation that was also dependent on EGCG concentration. The results are consistent with retention of the transporter conformation in the Ca$^{2+}$-free state, thus impeding Ca$^{2+}$ binding and therefore the subsequent steps when ATP is added to trigger the Ca$^{2+}$ transport process. Furthermore, phosphorylation by inorganic phosphate in the absence of Ca$^{2+}$ was partially inhibited by EGCG, suggesting alteration of the native Ca$^{2+}$-free conformation at the catalytic site. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
