Similarities were found in rat and pigeon heart mitochondria compared to the system from liver. In particular, the Km for external ADP is very low, i.e., about 7 .mu.M. The maximum actvity of the translocase [T] system, which was measured by following the exchange of adenine nucleotides [AN] across the mitochondrial membrane, or the Km of the system for ADP or ATP were not affected by Ca2+ concentration in the range 0.001-10 .mu.M. Consequently, the concentration change in sarcoplasmic Ca2+ that modifies the activities of several key metabolic enzymes plus the myofibrillar ATPase was unlikely to affect the activity of the T. However, higher concentrations of Ca2+ (up to 400 .mu.M) increased considerably the exchange of the AN. Heart muscle mitochondria possess high affinity binding sites for Ca2+ in the mitochondrial membrane, which bind up to 300 nmol Ca2+/g of heart muscle. If the ANT and the high affinity sites for Ca2+ were adjacent (or identical), the effects of the higher concentrations of Ca2+ on the T would be of considerable importance in control of the rate of translocation in heart muscle.
