The effect of taurine on calcium binding to isolated rat heart sarcolemmal membrane was examined. Taurine was observed to increase calcium binding to the low affinity sites in both high sodium-low potassium and low sodium-high potassium buffers. Taurine was also seen to antagonize the inhibition of calcium binding to the sarcolemma caused by both verapamil and lanthanum. Nevertheless, membrane structural changes due to taurine could not be detected using the spin label ESR probe 2N14. A possible regulatory role of taurine is discussed. |
