pubmed:abstractText
A number of hydrophobic proteins have been separated and purified to varying degrees from synaptic membranes derived from bovine brain. The proteins, which have been obtained using preparative acrylamide gel electrophoresis, have been analyzed for molecular weight, amino acid composition, peptide mapping, N-terminal amino acids, and for their ability to bind calcium and ATP. A number of the proteins bound calcium, the greatest binding being associated with a component having a molecular weight of 1.6 - 10(4), a binding capacity of 4 calcium/molecule, and a Km of 1.5 - 10(-5) M. An acidic tryptic peptide derived from this protein was evidently responsible for the calcium-binding. ATP binding appeared to be confined largely to the higher molecular weight proteins. From the peptide mapping there appears to be a similar acidic component in a number of the proteins exhibiting calcium-binding. ATP-binding was associated mainly with the high molecular weight proteins, particularly those which consisted of numerous basic tryptic peptides.
