DNA fragments homologous to P-type cation translocating ATPase genes were identified in Trichomonas vaginalis by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification. The genomic locus corresponding to one PCR fragment, TVCA1, contains a 3,055 base-pair open reading frame encoding a 108,162 dalton protein composed of 981 amino acids. TVCA1 lacks introns, is present in a single copy, and is expressed as a 3.1 kb transcript with short 5' and 3' untranslated regions. Separate primer extension experiments map the 5' end of the TVCA1 transcript to 12 and 16 nucleotide bases (nt) upstream of the methionine initiation codon. The message polyadenylation site is located 62 nt downstream of the protein termination codon at a CA dinucleotide. The TVCA1 protein sequence shares 57-58% similarity with rabbit, schistosome, trypanosome and malarial sarcoplasmic-endoplasmic reticulum calcium (SERCA) pumps, and significantly lower similarity with plasma membrane calcium pumps and cation translocating ATPases of other ion specificities. Structural and functional domains identified in P-type ATPases as well as 61/68 residues specifically implicated in SERCA pump activity are conserved in TVCA1. However, TVCA1 lacks binding sites for phospholamban regulation, thapsigargin inhibition and the calmodulin dependent protein kinase site phosphorylation present in other SERCA pumps.
