The phosphorylation of the cardiac muscle isoform of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA2a) on serine 38 has been described as a regulatory event capable of very significant enhancement of enzyme activity (Hawkins, C., Xu, A., and Narayanan, N. (1994) J. Biol. Chem. 269, 31198-31206). Independent confirmation of these observations has not been forthcoming. This study has utilized a polyclonal antibody specific for the phosphorylated serine 38 epitope on the Ca(2+)-ATPase to evaluate the phosphorylation of SERCA2a in isolated sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles and isolated rat ventricular myocytes. A quantitative Western blot approach failed to detect serine 38-phosphorylated Ca(2+)-ATPase in either kinase-treated sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles or suitably stimulated cardiac myocytes. Calibration standards confirmed that the detection sensitivity of assays was adequate to detect Ser-38 phosphorylation if it occurred on at least 1% of Ca(2+)-ATPase molecules in SR vesicle experiments or on at least 0.1% of Ca(2+)-ATPase molecules in cardiac myocytes. The failure to detect a phosphorylated form of the Ca(2+)-ATPase in either preparation (isolated myocyte, purified sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles) suggests that Ser-38 phosphorylation of the Ca(2+)-ATPase is not a significant regulatory feature of cardiac Ca(2+) homeostasis.
