Application

4-Bromomethyl-6,7-dimethoxycoumarin was used as fluorescent labeling reagent for the reversed-phase HPLC separation and detection of carboxylic acids. It was also used as derivatization reagent:
  • for quantitation of clofibric, bezafibric and fenofibric acids in liver by liquid chromatography
  • in determination of the concentration of tripeptide glutathione by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry
  • for determination of carboxylic acids in chromatographic detection

On reconstitution of the Ca(2+)-ATPase of skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum into bilayers of dimyristoleoylphosphatidylcholine [di(C14:1)PC] or dinervonylphosphatidylcholine [di(C24:1)PC] the stoichiometry of Ca2+ binding changes from the usual two Ca2+ ions bound per ATPase molecule to one Ca2+ ion bound per

The (Ca(2+)-Mg2+)-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum was labeled with 4-(bromomethyl)-6,7-dimethoxycoumarin. It was shown that a single cysteine residue (Cys-344) was labeled on the ATPase, with a 25% reduction in steady-state ATPase activity and no reduction in the steady-state rate of hydrolysis

The sarcoplasmic reticulum of skeletal muscle contains anionic phospholipids as well as the zwitterionic phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine. Here we study the effects of anionic phospholipids on the activity of the Ca2+-ATPase purified from the membrane. Reconstitution of the Ca2+-ATPase into

4-Bromomethyl-6,7-dimethoxy-coumarin labels the (Ca(2+)-Mg(2+)-ATPase of skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum at Cys-344. Resonance energy transfer has been used to measure the distance between this site and Lys-515 labelled with fluorescein isothiocyanate as about 37 A. The height of Cys-344 above the
