| Popis: | Mitochondrial fractions were isolated from fast-twitch (EDL), slow-twitch (soleus) and heart muscle of normal rat (WKY). Protein separation by electrophoresis and study of calcium-45 binding showed that a specific calcium protein (designated as calmitine) was present in the mitochondria of fast-twitch muscle but practically inexistent in slow-twitch and cardiac muscle. It seems to be related to calcium uptake by an energy-dependent mechanism. |
