Stimulation of calcium accumulation in cardiac sarcolemma by phosphorylase kinase

After incubation with phosphorylase kinase, calcium accumulation in cardiac sarcolemma was increased from 65+/-2 to 95+/-3nmol/10min per mg of protein. Under these conditions, phosphorylase kinase catalysed phosphorylation of membranes. This phosphorylation was hydroxylamine-insensitive, was stimulated by Ca2+ ions and was unaffected by 3':5'-cyclic AMP.
