The mechanism for activation of sarcoplasmic reticulum ATPase by Ca{sup 2+} was investigated in 2 mM MgCl{sub 2} and 0.1 M KCl at pH 6.5 and 11{degree}C by using enzyme preparations in which a specific amino acid residue (Cys-344) was labeled with 4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole (NBD). The authors compared the kinetics of binding and dissociation of Ca{sup 2+} from the enzyme with those of the accompanying NBD fluorescence changes. The fluorescence rise following addition of Ca{sup 2+} proceeded monoexponentially. At 2-100 {mu}M Ca{sup 2+} and in the absence of nucleotides, the Ca{sup 2+}-induced fluorescence rise and Ca{sup 2+} binding to the enzyme proceeded at similar rates, which were almost independent of the Ca{sup 2+} concentration. ATP by binding at 1 mol/mol of the phosphorylation site markedly accelerated both the Ca{sup 2+}-induced fluorescence rise and Ca{sup 2+} binding, ADP and AMPPNP but not GTP also being effective. These data are consistent with a reaction model in which binding of Ca{sup 2+} occurs after the conformational transition of the free enzyme from a state (E{sub 2}) having low affinity for Ca{sup 2+} to one (E{sub 1}) having high affinity for Ca{sup 2+} and in which ATP bound at the catalytic site of E{sub 2}, whose affinity for ATP is about 30-fold less than that of E{sub 1}, accelerates this conformational transition.
