Energy interconversion by the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase: ATP hydrolysis, Ca2+ transport, ATP synthesis and heat production
The sarcoplasmic reticulum of skeletal muscle retains a membrane bound Ca2+-ATPase which is able to interconvert different forms of energy. A part of the chemical energy released during ATP hydrolysis is converted into heat and in the bibliography it is assumed that the amount of heat produced durin...
