Name | Accession Type | Initial Conc. (uM) | Volume (fL) | Buffered | Sum Total Of | 21 | Calseq | Network | 9.09 | 0 | No | - | | This is Calsequestrin or the calcium buffer in the ER. from Cala & Jones, JBC 258(19), 1983: 11932-36 Calseq is present as 4mg/g of membrane protein; membrane protein = 2% of cell mass = 0.02 * 1g/cc * (1e-9)cc = (2e-11) g Hence Calseq = 8e-14/55000 moles per (1.6e-13)l = 9.091uM As per Guidebook to the calcium-binding proteins by Celio; and Mitchell et al, JBC 263, 1988: 1376-81; 1 mol of Calsequestrin binds 40 mol of Ca. This is the stoichiometry we use. System limitations do not allow us to create a 40th order reaction. Hence Calseq binding to Ca has been modeled in eight consecutive steps of 5th order each. The affinity of Calsequestrin for Ca in our model is constrained by the levels of free Ca in the stores (Ca-sequester). We use a Kd such that Ca-sequester levels remain similar to levels in the CaRegulation model without Ca buffering. | 22 | Ca-ext | Network | 4000 | 0 | Yes | - | | Extracell Ca conc = 4 mM Extracell vol assumed 100 X cell vol. It is anyway kept buffered for the purposes of the model, so the concentration won't change. |
