Calcium uptake and release by isolated cortices and microsomes from the unfertilized egg of the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis

Isolated cortices from unfertilized sea urchin eggs sequester calcium in an ATP-dependent manner when incubated in a medium containing free calcium levels characteristic of the resting cell (approximately 0.1 microM). This ATP-dependent calcium uptake activity was measured in the presence of 5 mM Na...
