1. Radioactivity was incorporated into 5'-O-phosphoryladenylyl-(3'-5')-adenosine (pApA) on incubation with adenylate kinase and [gamma-(32)P]ATP. The corresponding triadenylate and tetra-adenylate reacted more slowly. 2. Only oligoadenylate with a terminal 5'-phosphate served as the substrate. 3. The product formed from pApA was shown to behave like 5'-O-pyrophosphoryladenylyl-(3'-5')-adenosine (ppApA) on hydrolysis with alkaline phosphatase, potassium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid. 4. The characteristics of the reaction indicated that it was catalysed by adenylate kinase, but the rate of phosphate transfer from ATP to pApA was about 0.01% of that in the typical reaction with AMP. 5. The reverse reaction between ADP and ppApA occurred readily, but no additional phosphorylation of ppApA (to give pppApA) could be demonstrated.

Pyrophosphate, p-nitrophenyl phosphate and a variety of pyrimidine and purine nucleotides are hydrolyzed by the solubilized membrane-bound enzymes of the brush border plasma membrane of Hymenolepis diminuta. The pH optima (or ranges) for hydrolysis of substrates are 8.0 (pyrophosphate), 8.8 (p-nitrophenyl phosphate), 8.4-8.9 (nucleoside monophosphates), and 7.1-8.1 (nucleoside triphosphates); all substrates, with the exception of nucleoside triphosphates, have a higher affinity for the solubilized enzyme at pH 7.4 than at their optimal pH for hydrolysis. ATP is degraded completely by the enzyme preparation to adenosine and inorganic phosphate, but since neither ADP nor ATP accumulate in the incubation medium it is not known whether ATP hydrolysis involves the sequential hydrolysis of terminal phosphate groups. Isoelectric focusing and various chromatographic procedures (gel permeation, ion-exchange and hydrophobic interaction chromatography) fail to separate the alkaline phosphatase, phosphodiesterase, 5'-nucleotidase, adenosine triphosphatase and ribonuclease activities associated with the solubilized membrane preparation. Additionally, inhibitor studies indicate that only a single enzyme with low substrate specificity is involved in the hydrolysis of nucleotides, p-nitrophenyl phosphate, pyrophosphate and hexose phosphate esters. Purines and pyrimidines and their nucleosides interact with the active site, and in some instances activity of the enzyme is stimulated by an unknown mechanism.

Seven human kidneys that had been preserved for transplantation by pulsatile perfusion were studied to correlate the biochemical data with morphologic changes. Metabolite concentrations in mumol/g wet tissue were ATP = 0.26; ADP = 0.34; AMP = 0.45; lactate = 15.21; pyruvate = 0.23; 3-phosphoglycerate = 0.05; fructose-1,6-bisphosphate = 0.06; and hexose-6-phosphate = 0.03. Enzyme activities in mumol/min . mg protein found in the microsomal fraction were alkaline phosphatase = 0.049 and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase = 0.844. Morphologically, none of the kidneys showed irreversible cell injury in the renal tubules, but some glomeruli showed areas where the endothelial cells appeared stripped off of the capillary basement membranes, indicating possible perfusion injury. The data suggest that it is the resynthesizing ability, as opposed to the absolute concentration of ATP, which determines the recovery and the subsequent viability of the tissue.

The ATPase activity of rabbit-kidney brush border can be activated almost equally well by Ca2+ and Mg2+ and, therefore, should be called (Ca2+ or Mg2+)-ATPase. This enzyme was solubilized and enriched 14-fold by the following steps: pretreatment with papain removed 69% of alkaline phosphatase without attacking a significant portion of the ATPase activity. Addition of 1% cholate removed 65% of the protein but no ATPase activity. The combination of cholate (0.5%) and deoxycholate (0.4%) solubilized most of the ATPase activity and most of the remaining protein. A column chromatography of the extract on Sepharose CL-2B resulted in an 6.5-fold increase of specific ATPase activity. A precipitation by ammonium sulfate (40% saturation) produced an additional 1.9-fold increase. The yield of this partial purification was 16%. Towards the nucleotides UTP and GTP the enzyme showed an activity slightly higher, and towards ITP and CTP an activity slightly lower than that with ATP. ADP was split about half as fast as ATP. AMP was not accepted by the enzyme. Replacing MgCl2 by CaCl2 resulted in an ATPase activity of 92% of that with MgCl2. Using calcium- and magnesium-ATP as substrates, apparent Km values of 0.22 and 0.33 mM, respectively, were obtained. The gel electrophoresis revealed the enrichment of a protein with an apparent Mr of 95000 and also that of microvillus actin.

Phosphofructokinase (PFK) was purified from foot muscle of aerobic and anaerobic (24 h of anoxia) whelks, Busycotypus canaliculatum. Fructose-6-P kinetics were sigmoidal at pH 7.0 with affinity constants, S0.5, of 2.18 +/- 0.10 (nH = 2.5 +/- 0.1) and 2.48 +/- 0.13 mM (nH = 2.7 +/- 0.1) for the enzyme from aerobic verus anaerobic muscle. Affinity for ATP, like that for fructose-6-P, did not differ for the two enzymes (0.031 +/- 0.003 for the aerobic vs 0.041 +/- 0.007 mM for the anaerobic enzyme), but S0.5 for Mg2+ was significantly different for the two enzymes (0.060 +/- 0.006 vs 0.130 +/- 0.020 mM). Whelk muscle PFK was activated by NH+4, Pi, AMP, ADP, and fructose-2,6-P2.NH+4 and fructose-2,6-P2 were less effective activators of PFK from anoxic muscle, with apparent Ka's 1.6- and 3.5-fold higher for the anaerobic vs aerobic enzyme. Activators decreased S0.5 for fructose-6-P and reduced nH. With the exception of fructose-2,6-P2, the effects of activators on S0.5 were the same for the enzyme from aerobic and anaerobic muscle; fructose-2,6-P2 at 2.5 microM reduced S0.5 by only 3.3-fold for the anaerobic enzyme compared to 5.5-fold for the aerobic enzyme. ATP was a strong substrate inhibitor of PFK; the enzyme from anaerobic muscle showed greater ATP inhibition, with I50's 1.5- to 2.0-fold lower than those for the aerobic enzyme. The kinetic differences between PFK from anaerobic versus aerobic foot muscle (stronger ATP inhibition and decreased sensitivity to activators for the anaerobic enzyme) were consistent with kinetic differences reported for the phosphorylated versus dephosphorylated forms, respectively, of PFK in other systems. Treatment of PFK from anaerobic muscle with alkaline phosphatase resulted in a decrease in the Ka for fructose-2,6-P2 to a level similar to that of the aerobic enzyme. The physiological stress of anoxia may, therefore, induce a covalent modification of PFK.

An ATP diphosphohydrolase (EC 3.6.1.5) from the pancreas of the pig has been characterized and purified. The enzyme which has an optimum pH between 8 and 9 is specific for diphospho- and triphosphonucleosides. The Km values for ADP and ATP are 7.4 and 7.3 x 10(-4) M, respectively, and the purified enzyme has specific activities of 13 and 15.2 mumol of Pi/min/m of protein, respectively. It requires calcium or magnesium ions and it is insensitive to ATPase inhibitors, namely oligomycin, ouabain, and ruthenium red, and to levamisole, an inhibitor of alkaline phosphatase. Denaturation experiments, by heat and trypsin treatments, indicated that only one enzyme is involved. This is confirmed by the solubilization and purification process and by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. A 270-fold purification was obtained by centrifugation and successive column chromatography on Sepharose 4B and Affi-Gel blue. It is a glycoprotein with a molecular weight of 65,000 as estimated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.

The ribose-modified chromophoric and fluorescent analog of ATP 2',3'-O-(2,4,6-trinitrocyclohexadienylidene) adenosine 5'-triphosphate (TNP-ATP) has been synthesized previously (Hiratsuka, T., and Uchida, K. (1973) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 320, 635-647 and Hiratsuka, T. (1976) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 453, 293-297). In the present study, four TNP-derivatives of ATP, ADP, AMP and adenosine were synthesized and compared for several chemical, spectral and enzymatic properties. Their visible absorption and fluorescent properties were found to be quite similar. Visible absorption and fluorescence spectra of TNP-derivatives were sensitive to solvent polarity. TNP-adenosine and TNP-AMP showed considerable substrate activities with adenosine deaminase and alkaline phosphatase, respectively. TNP-ATP proved to be an excellent substitute for ATP in adenylate kinase and myosin ATPase systems. The results indicate that these analogs are useful as chromophoric and fluorescent probes for hydrophobic regions in adenine nucleoside and nucleotide requiring enzymes.

Bovine intestinal 5'-nucleotidase has been partially purified and characterized for comparison with two other phosphohydrolases from the same tissue, alkaline phosphatase and 5'-nucleotide phosphodiesterase, which are closely related structurally and mechanistically. Kinetic studies with a variety of nucleotides and phosphonate analogs show that, although 5'-nucleotidase is a monoesterase like alkaline phosphatase, it more closely resembles 5'-nucleotide phosphodiesterase in its high affinity and specificity for nucleotide binding. 5'-Nucleotidase is bound very strongly by an affinity column containing a bound phosphonate analog of ADP but is not bound by an affinity column containing a non nucleotide phosphonate which selectively binds alkaline phosphatase. 5'-Nucleotidase is strongly bound by immobilized antibodies prepared against 5'-nucleotide phosphodiesterase, and is less strongly bound by immobilized antibodies prepared against alkaline phosphatase. We conclude that 5'-nucleotidase is structurally more similar to 5'-nucleotide phosphodiesterase than to another monoesterase, alkaline phosphatase.

The properties and subcellular localization of adenosine diphosphatase (ADPase) activity in smooth muscle cells cultured from pig aortas have been investigated. The pH optimum of ADPase activity was 7.3 and the apparent Km for ADP was 10.3 microM. ADPase activity was inhibited completely by EDTA and was restored by the addition of divalent cations. The enzyme activity was not inhibited by 2-glycerophosphate, a substrate for non-specific phosphatases, nor by levamisole, a specific inhibitor of alkaline phosphatase. Smooth muscle cells were homogenized and a post-nuclear supernatant was applied to a sucrose density gradient in a Beaufay automatic zonal rotor. The distribution of ADPase activity in the density gradient was similar to that of 5'-nucleotidase activity, a marker enzyme for the plasma membrane, and distinct from the distributions of the marker enzymes for the other organelles. When the cells were homogenized in the presence of digitonin, an agent which binds to cholesterol and increases the equilibrium density of the plasma membrane, the modal equilibrium densities of ADPase activity and of 5'-nucleotidase activity were increased to similar extents, thus confirming the plasma membrane localization of ADPase activity.

Subcellular fractionation of human term placenta showed that the highest relative specific activity of 5'-nucleotidase and alkaline phosphatase resided in the microsomal fraction; of the total 5'-nucleotidase activity present, 7 per cent was in the cytosol. 5'-Nucleotidase was reproducibly purified over 500-fold in 17 per cent yield from the insoluble component of homogenates of term placenta to give a single major glycoprotein with two minor inactive protein contaminants. Purified placental 5'-nucleotidase was free from non-specific or alkaline phosphatase, hydrolysed 12 to 22 mumol AMP/min/mg of protein at 30 degrees C, and was activated up to fivefold by Triton X-100. AMP, Km 5 to 7 microM, was the preferred substrate. The Arrhenius plot was biphasic, with activation energies of 21.7 and 49.7 kJ/mol above and below 36 degrees C, the region of the transition temperature. Nucleoside di- and triphosphates inhibited competitively; the most potent inhibitors were ADP and adenosine 5'-methylenediphosphonate, Ki slope 90 nm and 6 nm, respectively. Lectins inhibited the enzyme; concanavalin A caused time-dependent inactivation reversible by alpha-methyl-D-mannoside. EDTA inactivated the enzyme; partial reactivation was achieved with divalent cations. The pH optimum was 7.2 to 7.3; Mg2+ produced a second alkaline pH optimum. The properties of placental 5'-nucleotidase are those of an intrinsic membrane protein and, in general, resemble properties of the several 'ecto'-5'-nucleotidases which have been purified from other tissues, although certain differences in kinetic properties of the placental enzyme are apparent.
