Figure 2 Modes of calcium translocation by SR calcium pump as affected by different vanadate oligomers. V1: Monomeric vanadate; V4: Tetrameric vanadate; V10: Decameric vanadate. Only V10, and not V1, was shown to inhibit calcium uptake in conditions 1 and 3, that is, when ATPase activity is coupled to calcium transport. V1 only inhibits the ATPase in condition 2, where the calcium gradient is destroyed by oxalate or phosphate.
