Uptake and release of calcium by isolated egg cortices of the sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus.

Payan P , Girard JP , Sardet C , Whitaker M , Zimmerberg J .


???displayArticle.abstract???
Isolated cortices from sea urchin eggs accumulate calcium in a non-mitochondrial store at a rate dependent on ATP and enhanced by oxalate. Calcium efflux is increased by ionomycin and by A23187 which has been used as a parthenogenetic agent, but not by weak base (NH4Cl). Accumulated calcium is partially released by 1,4,5 inositol triphosphate.
