The K+-stimulated, ouabain-insensitive ATPase activity present in vesicles of microsomal fractions from hog gastric mucosa can be demonstrated in fresh preparations by adding Ca2+ (micron range) to the incubation medium. Ca2+ effect is similar but not additive to the effect of gramicidin or freezing. High Ca2+ concentrations (1 mM) produce an inhibitory effect on the K+-stimulated ATPase activity. This effect is not seen in the presence of gramicidin. Calcium increases the magnitude of ATP-driven H+ uptake in vesicles exposed to K+ for periods of time up to 60 min. At longer times of exposure (120 min) the response does not differ from controls. It is concluded that Ca2+ at low concentrations (micron range) enhances the K+ permeability of the vesicular membrane. At higher concentrations (mM range), Ca2+ becomes inhibitory to the K+ permeability. A role for Ca2+ as a second messenger in stimulus-secretion coupling in the parietal cell is discussed.
