Sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles were separated into heavy (derived from terminal cisternae) and light (derived from longitudinal tubules) fractions, according to Meissner [Biochim. Biophys. Acta, 389, 51-68 (1975)]. The similar Ca2+ sensitivities of phosphoprotein formation, ATPase activity and calcium uptake, and the similar phosphoprotein turnover rates (ATPase/phosphoprotein formation) of both fractions indicate that the same ATPase enzyme is present in the terminal cisternae and longitudinal sarcoplaxmic reticulum. The higher V for Ca2+-activated ATPase activity and calcium uptake in the light fraction correlated with the higher concentration of ATPase enzyme per mg of membrane protein in this fraction. In both the presence and absence of calcium-precipitating anions, the light fraction stored more calcium than the heavy. The Ca2+ dependence of calcium release after addition of EGTA appeared similar in both fractions, but the rate of calcium release was more rapid in the light fraction. These findings suggest that calcium release may occur more rapidly from longitudinal than terminal cisternae portions of the sarcoplasmic reticulum and that calcium release, like calcium uptake, may be mediated by the ATPase enzyme in the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane. Although the activation energies for Ca2+-activated ATPase activity above and below the transition temperature were significantly different for the heavy and light fractions, their transition temperatures were similar. Partial purification of the ATpase enzyme by deoxycholate treatment modified the activation energies of the light but not the heavy fraction and caused the activation energies to become similar. The phosphoprotein levels of heavy and light vesicles did not become similar after deoxycholate treatment, although gel electrophoretograms indicated both samples contained > 90% ATPase protein. These results indicate the protein-lipid associations in these two fractions may be different.
