| Abstract | The membrane-intrinsic protein phospholamban (PLN), the regulatory protein of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+)-ATPase, was chemically synthesized. The synthesis was accomplished by double couplings and efficient capping procedures, thus eliminating hydrophobic failure sequences. The crude peptide was purified by high-performance liquid chromatographic ion exchange and gel permeation chromatography in chloroform-methanol mixtures. Ion spray mass spectroscopy showed that the product had the correct molecular mass. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis runs produced the typical monomer-pentamer structural pattern. A predominantly helical CD spectrum was obtained in 0.075% C12E8 (67.9% helix, 1.8% beta, 12.2% turn, 18.1% random coil). Synthetic PLN was phosphorylated in detergent solutions by protein kinase A with a stoichiometry close to 1:1 (Pi to PLN monomer). Reconstitution of the isolated skeletal muscle SR Ca2+ ATPase in phosphatidylcholine membranes in the presence of PLN using the freezing and thawing technique yielded a preparation with lower Ca(2+)-dependent ATPase activity. The inhibition was mainly due to a decrease in the affinity (Km(Ca)) of the ATPase for Ca2+ and was partially reversed by PLN phosphorylation with protein kinase A. By contrast, addition of PLN to diluted intact SR vesicles uncoupled the Ca(2+)-transport reaction, suggesting an ionophoric effect of PLN. Because this effect was observed at very high PLN-to-SR vesicle ratios and was not influenced by PLN phosphorylation, its biological function is doubtful. |

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.
