Abstract

Thapsigargin is a specific antagonist of SR/ER-type $Ca^{2+}-ATPase$ in animal tissue, and it was used to characterize the microsomal ATPases prepared from the roots of tomato. When $10\;{\mu}M$ thapsigargin was added, it inhibited the microsomal ATPase activity by 30%. The thapsigargin-induced inhibition was dose-dependent. Since the activity of $Ca^{2+}-ATPase$ is very low in the roots of tomato tissue, it is possible that thapsigargin inhibits the activities of major $H^+-ATPases$ located in plasma and vacuolar membranes. The inhibitory effect of thapsigargin was reduced when the vacuolar $H^+-ATPase$ activity was inhibited by ${NO_3}^-$. However, the effect of thapsigargin was not observed on the $H^+-ATPase$ activity located in the plasma membrane. These results suggest that thapsigargin inhibits the vacuolar $H^+-ATPase$ activity in the roots of tomato.

Thapsigargin은 동물조직에서 ER/SR-type $Ca^{2+}-ATPase$의 선택적 저해제로서, 토마토 뿌리조직으로부터 분리한 마이크로솜에서 ATPase의 특성을 조사하기 위하여 사용되었다. Thapsigargin은 마이크로솜 ATPase 활성을 농도의존적으로 저해하였으며, $10\;{\mu}M$ 농도에서 총활성의 약 30%를 저해하였다. 이것은 뿌리조직에서 $Ca^{2+}-ATPase$의 활성이 매우 낮다는 것을 고려할 때, thapsigargin이 뿌리조직의 주된 ATPase 활성인 원형질막 및 액포막의 $H^+-ATPase$ 활성을 저해할 가능성을 보인다. Thapsigargin의 효과는 ${NO_3}^-$를 사용하여 액포막 $H^+-ATPase$ 활성을 저해하였을 때 현저하게 감소하였다. 그러나, thapsigargin의 효과는 원형질막의 $H^+-ATPase$ 활성에는 영향을 미치지 않아, thapsigargin이 토마토 뿌리조직에서 액포막 $H^+-ATPase$를 선택적으로 저해함을 보여준다.
