The Ca2+ -activated ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum can exist in true solution in the presence of some nonionic detergents, with retention of enzymatic activity for several days. The soluble active particles retain about 30 mol of phospholipid per mol of polypeptide chain even in the presence of a large excess of detergent, indicating the existence of relatively strong attractive forces between protein and lipid, as previous work from other laboratories has already suggested. Deoxycholate is much more effective than nonionic detergents in removing protein-bound lipid and, when used at solubilizing concentrations, completely delipidates and inactivates the ATPase. Preliminary molecular weight measurements indicate that the Ca2+ -ATPase exists as an oligomer in the native membrane: fully active enzyme in Tween 80 has a minimal protein molecular weight of about 400 000, corresponding to a trimer or tetramer of the ATPase polypeptide chain, and even the inactive enzyme in deoxycholate contains a substantial fraction of dimeric protein.
