The properties of Ca-transporting system in sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes in fast and slow frog muscles as well as some properties of sarcolemma Na, K-ATPase of the same object were investigated. The rate of Ca2+ uptake, Ca-ATPase activity and Ca/ATP ratio for the reticulum of fast muscle demonstrated higher values than those for the reticulum of slow muscle. The rate of Ca2+ accumulation by the fragments of the rectus reticulum and Ca/ATP ratio were found to decrease under the influence of acetylcholine (0.
