Human erythrocyte ghosts were solubilized in a low ionic strength medium containing 1% Triton X-100 and subjected to electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gels containing Triton X-100. Five major bands were stained with Coomassie Blue, all except one band being heterogenous when re-electrophoresed in gels containing sodium dodecyl sulphate. It was possible to detect acetylcholinesterase, non-specific esterase, ATPase, alkaline phosphatase, 5'-nucleotidase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, lactate dehydrogenase, and aldolase activities on the Triton-containing polyacrylamide gels. Two of the enzymes, ATPase and 5'-nucleotidase, showed substantial inhibition by Triton X-100 in quantitative studies. This appears to be a useful method for studying membrane enzymes in normal and pathological red cells.

1. Alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1) from human liver was solubilized from the homogenate using 0.2% Triton X-100 containing 0.2 M lithium 3,5-diiodosalicylate, and the pellet obtained was resolubilized with 20% n-butanol. The procedure resulting in 3842-fold purification included acetone fractionation, ammonium sulfate precipitation, DEAE-cellulose chromatography, Sephadex G-200 gel filtration, hydroxyapatite gel chromatography and further concanavalin A/Sepharose 4B affinity chromatography. 2. The highly purified enzyme showed one major protein band on acrylamide gel electrophoresis at pH 8.6, and exhibited one-seventh of the alkaline p-nitrophenylphosphatase activity in the hepatic enzyme preparation contains of the alkaline pyrophosphatase activity. 3. The highly purified enzyme was a sialic-acid containing glycoprotein. 4. Sialidase-treated hepatic enzyme clearly presented the phenomenon of delayed mobility, and the delayed enzyme fraction stained more strongly than that of non-treated hepatic alkaline phosphatase. 5. In order to investigate the role of the carbohydrate region(s) of the hepatic alkaline phosphatase molecule on substrate binding, the effect of sialidase treatment on the rate of substrate inhibition of alkaline phosphatase was studied. In the case of hepatic enzyme without sialidase, substrate inhibition of alkaline phosphatase activity was clearly shown, while in the case of the hepatic enzyme with sialidase, there was hardly any substrate inhibition in the range of 1-8 mM p-nitrophenylphosphate.

The examination of alkaline phosphatase isoenzymes by means of isoelectric focusing in polyacrylamide gel rods using the apparatus and focusing method of Righetti and Drysdale is discussed. A simultaneous coupling procedure using alpha-naphthyl phosphate and fast blue salt R in 2-amino-2-methyl-1,3-propanediol buffer, pH 9.68, containing MgCl2 and ZnSO4 proved sensitive for developing the enzyme bands. Also discussed are the effects seen with the incorporation of Triton X100 into the gel and sample mixtures. Enzyme, which remained at the top of the gel without using this detergent, entered the gel easily with the addition of Triton X-100 into the application solution. Incorporation of Triton into the gel matrix resulted in some enzyme band patterns that showed distinct differences from gels containing no Triton.

About 90% of the protein of hamster intestinal brush borders was solubilised in 0.25% (w/v) sodium dodecyl sulphate without total loss of biological activity. Detergent-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the solubilised proteins separated 10-15 bands and partially resolved maltase, lactase, sucrase-maltase, trehalase and alkaline phosphatase activities. The disaccharidases, which were associated with the higher molecular weight proteins, were preferentially solubilised with 0.1%. (w/v) Triton X-100, butanol or papain, whereas Tris and NaI extracted only the lower molecular weight proteins, possible derived from the core filaments. Electrophoresis of brush border proteins metabolically labelled with [14-C] glucosamine suggested that many of the membrane-bound enzymes are glycoproteins. However, chromatography of a papain digest on Sephadex G-200 showed that the sucrase-maltase complex can be separated nearly free of carbohydrate without total loss of activity. The importance of characterizing membrane proteins solubilised by a number of techniques is discussed.

1. The hydrolysis of glycyl-L-leucine, glycyl-L-tyrosine, tributyrin, sucrose, maltose, soluble starch and alpha- and beta-glycerophosphates by everted segments of rat intestine was estimated separately or in combination. 2. A comparative study showed significant interaction between different substrates which affected their digestion. 3. Two types of interaction were identified: products of hydrolysis (1) affected the hydrolysis of homologous substances, e.g. methionine and alanine inhibited glycyl-L-leucine hydrolysis, maltose reduced glucoamylase (alpha-1,4-glucan glucohydrolase; EC 3-2-1-3) activity (intracatenary interactions); (2) interfered with the hydrolysis of a different group of substances, e.g. tributyrin inhibited dipeptidase (glycyl-L-leucine hydrolase; EC 3-4-3-2) and alkaline phosphatase (EC 3-1-3-1), glycyl-L-leucine interfered with the activity of the latter enzyme (intercatenary interactions). 4. Mechanisms of interactions were suggested by the results of a comparison of the extent of inhibition or activation of two enzymes (glycyl-L-leucine hydrolase and alkaline phosphatase) in situ in everted intestinal segments or after solubilization with papain or Triton X-100, and different treatments known to affect allosteric sites of these enzymes. 5. Tributyrin and dipeptides were found to act on alkaline phosphatase as allosteric regulators. A discontinuity of the Arrhenius plot suggested the existence of different enzyme conformations which were re-arranged by tributyrin. 6. Substrate interactions in digestion were found in adult rat, cat, rabbit and hen. Substantial differences were found between classes (Aves and Mammalia), orders (rodents, lagomorphs and carnivores) and between age-groups within an animal strain (in this instance, for the rat). 7. These interactions are thought to be involved in the co-ordination of digestion with intestinal absorption and to regulate the time and site of subsequent hydrolysis.

1. Human tumour KB cells growing in suspension culture were labelled by lactoperoxidase-catalysed iodination. Several major radioactively labelled proteins were detected by poly-acrylamide-gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulphate. 2. After reduction with 2-mercaptoethanol the major radioactive electrophoretic bands migrated as substances with apparent molecular weights of about 90,000, 70,000, 60,000, 50,000 and 34,000 and corresponded closely to the positions at which the major glycosylated polypeptide subunits of KB-cell homogenates migrated during electrophoresis under the same conditions. 3. All the iodinated protein bands except one were present in purified preparations of KB plasma membranes. 4. Most of the 50,000-molecular-weight species, supposedly a surface protein component labelled during iodination of intact and viable KB cells by a non-penetrating enzyme reagent, appeared in a crude nuclear pellet during fractionation. 5. The glyco-protein nature of the major external iodinated species of KB cells was confirmed by adsorption chromatography of these substances, dissolved in low concentrations of Triton X-100, on a lectin-Sepharose column. Two major enzyme markers of the KB plasma membrane, 5'-nucleotidase and alkaline phosphatase were also found to be glycoproteins. 6. Enzyme-catalysed incorporation of radioactive iodine into a fraction of low molecular weight and soluble in chloroform-methanol mixtures also occurred during lactoperoxidase treatment of intact KB cells. The partial characterization of this fraction is briefly described.

Triton X-100 caused the liver isoenzymes of alkaline phosphatase in some serum samples to separate into two fractions on agarose gel electrophoresis. One of these fractions migrated at the rate of the original one, and one migrated more slowly. The latter fraction corresponded to a fast-moving component on electrophoresis in Cellogel and seems to be identical with a slowly moving isoenzyme in starch and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The migration rates of the bone, placental, and intestinal isoenzymes were unaltered, but the fractions appeared sharper.

The alkaline phosphatase in homogenates of human liver was separated into two components by the addition of Triton X-100 to an agarose gel electrophoretic system. One of these components migrated at a rate identical to that of the original one and similar to alpha2-macroglobulin. The other component migrated more slowly, at a rate that resembled that of beta1-transferrin. Human serum samples regularly contained an identical fast-migrating fraction, whereas an identical slowly migrating fraction only appeared in serum obtained from patients with various diseases, especially from patients with malignant tumours, even though the liver did not contain tumour metastases. Slow isoenzyme was found in a few sera that had alkaline phosphatase activity within the normal range. Histochemical examinations of liver tissue from patients whose serum contained the slowly migrating isoenzyme showed a pronounced reaction of alkaline phosphatase in the bile canaliculi, and this isoenzyme seems to arise from the canaliculi. The fast-migrating isoenzyme might arise from the endothelial cells of the liver, to which the activity is usually confined in histochemical stainings.

The purification of detergent-solubilized membrane-bound phosphatases from Zymomonas mobilis using novel adsorbents is described. The prepared adsorbents have a hydrophobic core with functional groups attached. These functional groups may either increase or decrease the hydrophobicity of the adsorbent, or participate in other forms of interactions. Adsorption of acid phosphatase (ACP), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and ATPase to these adsorbents was salt-promoted. Desorption was achieved by decreasing the salt concentration or by displacement with increasing concentration of Triton X-100. The results indicate that chromatography on multifunctional adsorbents that are predominantly hydrophobic in character is a procedure that can have a general applicability in purification of membrane proteins.

Many proteins of eukaryotic cells are anchored to membranes by covalent linkage to glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol (GPI). These proteins lack a transmembrane domain, have no cytoplasmic tail, and are, therefore, located exclusively on the extracellular side of the plasma membrane. GPI-anchored proteins form a diverse family of molecules that includes membrane-associated enzymes, adhesion molecules, activation antigens, differentiation markers, protozoan coat components, and other miscellaneous glycoproteins. In the kidney, several GPI-anchored proteins have been identified, including uromodulin (Tamm-Horsfall glycoprotein), carbonic anhydrase type IV, alkaline phosphatase, Thy-1, BP-3, aminopeptidase P, and dipeptidylpeptidase. GPI-anchored proteins can be released from membranes with specific phospholipases and can be recovered from the detergent-insoluble pellet after Triton X-114 treatment of membranes. All GPI-anchored proteins are initially synthesized with a transmembrane anchor, but after translocation across the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum, the ecto-domain of the protein is cleaved and covalently linked to a preformed GPI anchor by a specific transamidase enzyme. Although it remains obscure why so many proteins are endowed with a GPI anchor, the presence of a GPI anchor does confer some functional characteristics to proteins: (1) it is a strong apical targeting signal in polarized epithelial cells; (2) GPI-anchored proteins do not cluster into clathrin-coated pits but instead are concentrated into specialized lipid domains in the membrane, including so-called smooth pinocytotic vesicles, or caveoli; (3) GPI-anchored proteins can act as activation antigens in the immune system; (4) when the GPI anchor is cleaved by PI-phospholipase C or PI-phospholipase D, second messengers for signal transduction may be generated; (5) the GPI anchor can modulate antigen presentation by major histocompatibility complex molecules. Finally, at least one human disease, paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria, is a result of defective GPI anchor addition to plasma membrane proteins.
