1. Isolated rat heart sarcolemma was treated with different concentrations of an ionic detergent, deoxycholate (DOC) and ATP hydrolysis in the presence of Ca2+ or Mg2+ was determined. 2. Both Ca2+-dependent ATPase and Mg2+-dependent ATPase activities were decreased in the DOC-treated membranes; however, the depression of Mg2+-dependent ATPase activity was greater than that of Ca2+-dependent ATPase. 3. The differential changes in Ca2+-dependent ATPase and Mg2+-dependent ATPase activities were apparent when incubations with DOC were carried out for different time intervals and at different temperatures. 4. In DOC-treated preparations, the Km value for Ca2+-dependent ATPase was decreased whereas that for Mg2+-dependent ATPase was increased. The half maximal velocities of the Ca2+-dependent ATPase and Mg2+-dependent ATPase enzyme reactions in the treated preparations were obtained at a DOC: membrane protein ratio of 3.0 and 0.6, respectively. 5. In the DOC-treated membranes exhibiting the half maximal velocities of enzyme reactions, the Ka value for Ca2+-dependent ATPase was drastically reduced but remained unchanged for Mg2+-dependent ATPase. 6. The DOC treatment was associated with a loss of protein as well phospholipids and resulted in changes in the ultrastructural integrity of the membrane. 7. Varying degrees of decreases in the activities of sarcolemmal adenylate cyclase. (Na+-K+)-ATPase, 5'-nucleotidase and calcium binding were seen upon DOC treatment. 8. The extent of reduction in Ca2+-dependent ATPase and Mg2+-dependent ATPase activities were also different when the membrane was treated with a non-ionic detergent, Lubrol PX. 9. These data suggest that Ca2+-dependent ATPase in heart sarcolemma is more resistant than Mg2+-dependent ATPase to detergent treatments and further indicate some differences in the properties of these enzymes.

To clarify the pathogenesis of protoporphyrin-induced cholestasis, liver surface membrane enzyme activities were determined after (a) isolated rat liver perfusion with protoporphyrin administered by bolus (1.0 mumol) or bolus plus constant infusion (1.0 mumol + 0.05 mumol/min) and (b) combination of liver surface membrane with protoporphyrin (0.9-53.4 nmol/ml) in vitro. The perfusion studies showed that protoporphyrin significantly inhibited Na+, K+- and Mg+2-adenosine triphosphatase activities. In vitro, these adenosine triphosphatase activities and the 5'-nucleotidase activity were inhibited linearly by protoporphyrin up to a concentration of approximately 18 mumol/ml; thereafter, enzyme activity was maintained. Greater inhibition of the adenosine triphosphatase activities occurred with protoporphyrin than was reported for chlorpromazine at similar molar concentrations. This effect was independent of the quantity of membrane protein analyzed and was not reversible with a 50:1 dilution. The inhibitory effect of protoporphyrin on surface membrane enzyme activities was also nonselective. Although the hepatotoxic effects of protoporphyrin may be more generalized, the present data underscore protoporphyrin's toxic interaction with liver surface membranes.

The in vitro stimulation of human and rabbit erythrocyte membrane Ca2+-ATPase activity by physiological concentrations of thyroid hormone has recently been described. To extend these observations to a nucleated cell model, Ca2+-ATPase activity in a membrane preparation obtained from rabbit myocardium has been studied. Activity of 5'-nucleotidase in the preparation was increased 26-fold over that of myocardial homogenate, consistent with enrichment by sarcolemma. Mean basal enzyme activity in membranes from nine animals was 20.8 +/- 3.3 mumol Pi mg membrane protein-1 90 min-1, approximately 20-fold the activity described in rabbit red cell membranes. Exposure of heart membranes in vitro to L-thyroxine (T4) (10(-10)M) increased Ca2+-ATPase activity to 29.2 +/- 3.8 mumol Pi (P less than 0.001). Dose-response studies conducted with T4 showed that maximal stimulatory response was obtained at 10(-10) M). Hormonal stimulation was comparable for L-T4 and triiodo-L-thyronine (T3) (10(-10) M). Tetraiodothyroacetic acid was without biological activity, whereas triiodothyroacetic acid and D-T4, each at 10(-10) M, significantly decreased enzyme activity compared to control (basal) levels. The action of L-T4 on myocardial membrane Ca2+-ATPase activity was inhibited by trifluoperazine (100 microM) and the naphthalenesulfonamide W-7 (50-100 microM), compounds that block actions of calmodulin, the protein activator of membrane-associated Ca2+-ATPase. Radioimmunoassay revealed the presence of calmodulin (1.4 micrograms/mg membrane protein-1) in the myocardial membrane fraction and 0.35 micrograms/mg-1 in cytosol. Myocardial Ca2+-ATPase activity, apparently of sarcolemmal origin, is thus thyroid hormone stimulable. The hormonal responsiveness of this calcium pump-associated enzyme requires calmodulin.

After 24-h fasting, when the recovery of plasma membrane protein isolated from rat liver was unchanged, the enrichment in 5'-nucleotidase was decreased by 16%. Modifications of the lipid composition were also observed and resulted in a 27% decrease of the cholesterol/phospholipid molar ratio.

The effect of the growth of the Walker 256 carcinoma on the level of 5'-nucleotidase and alkaline phosphatase in the whole liver and in an isolated hepatocyte membrane preparation of its host was investigated. Alkaline phosphatase activities of whole liver and plasma membrane were increased approximately 5-fold by tumor growth. A 50% decrease in whole liver 5'-nucleotidase activity was observed in tumor-bearing rats while the 5'-nucleotidase activity per milligram membrane protein was unaltered. Tumor growth would therefore appear to affect a pool of 5'-nucleotidase which is not associated with the plasma membrane.

Purified microvillous membranes prepared from normal term human placenta were studied for their ability to bind specifically low-density lipoprotein (LDL). Electron microscopic examination of the membrane preparations revealed essentially microvilli-like structures, and the enzyme analyses a 14-17-fold enrichment in the membrane markers 5'-nucleotidase and alkaline phosphatase. The binding of [125I]LDL was dependent on time, temperature, pH and protein concentration; it was saturable with a low capacity (130.4 +/- 22.2 ng/mg of membrane protein) and presented a high affinity (apparent Ka 6.12 +/- 1.32 micrograms protein per ml). These high-affinity binding sites were specific for LDL (high-density lipoprotein induced less competition than unlabelled LDL) and were sensitive to pronase digestion. Unlike the binding of LDL to other tissues, the [125I]LDL binding to microvillous membranes did not require divalent cations. The presence of specific LDL receptors on the placental microvillous membranes, located at the effective site of exchange between the maternal blood and the placental tissue, supports the concept that human placenta utilizes LDL-cholesterol for its progesterone synthesis.

In fully developed androgen-induced hypertrophy of female mouse kidney, beta-adrenergic receptors per unit membrane protein were increased approx. 2.5-fold, as measured by the binding of [125I]iodocyanopindolol, with no change in apparent dissociation constants (Kd range 20-25 pM). Membrane protein relative to total kidney protein, Na+/K+-dependent ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3) and 5'-nucleotidase (EC 3.1.3.5) activities and cholesterol content per unit membrane protein did not differ significantly in preparations from control and treated animals. The binding of iodocyanopindolol to kidney membranes was characterized with respect to association and dissociation kinetics, and also in regard to the less-specific contributions of other major catecholamine or indolamine receptors, using mixtures of the corresponding specific competitors. beta 1-selective drugs, practolol and metoprolol, and beta 2-selective agents, IPS-339 and zinterol, were competed with iodocyanopindolol to assess the receptor type specificity, and the ensuing binding profiles were dissected by a nonlinear regression analysis as described by Munson, P.J. and Rodbard, D. (Anal. Biochem. (1982) 107, 220-239). Most of the androgen-induced beta-adrenergic receptors had the binding properties corresponding to beta 2-subtype. No consistent increase in the density of beta 1-adrenergic receptors could be shown.

A surface membrane fraction of high purity and good yield has been prepared from homogenates of rabbit peritoneal polymorphonuclear leucocytes, using a preliminary sorbitol density gradient sedimentation followed by preparative high voltage electrophoresis in a thin flowing buffer film. Enrichment values for the plasma membrane marker enzyme 5'-nucleotidase and 125I-labelled Lens culinaris lectin, after the latter had been applied at the whole cell level, were 18-fold and 6-fold, respectively. Contamination of the surface membrane fraction by other organelles was negligible and approximately 1 mg of surface membrane protein can be obtained from 2 . 10(9) leucocytes. A triacylglycerol-rich, protein-poor fraction that lacks any definable structure in electron microscopy separates discretely from the surface membrane vesicles during electrophoresis. It is considered that this may be a contaminant not previously recognized as present in membrane fractions prepared by more conventional procedures.

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.

The binding of human 125I-labeled HDL3 to purified rat liver and testis plasma membranes was studied. About 50-65% of the total HDL binding in these membranes was abolished by 1% bovine serum albumin in the incubation medium. The remaining albumin-insensitive binding sites, determined in the presence of albumin were associated with plasma membranes; a good correlation was found between the 125I-labeled HDL3 binding and the 5'-nucleotidase activities of the membrane fractions. The binding sites in these tissues were saturable, specific for HDL (not competed for by LDL) and had similar affinities for 125I-labeled HDL3 (Kd, 11.8 micrograms protein/ml for liver and 12.7 micrograms protein/ml for testis membranes); the maximum binding capacity of the testis membranes was higher (1.3 vs. 0.7 microgram protein/mg membrane protein). Egg phosphatidylcholine complexes of both human apolipoprotein A-I and apolipoprotein C's competed for the HDL-binding sites, but phosphatidylcholine vesicles alone did not. Chemical modification of the lysine and arginine residues of apolipoproteins did not affect the interaction of HDL3 with its binding sites. Despite the fact that the HDL-binding sites in these tissues are not specific for apolipoprotein A-I, they may have important physiological roles in lipid transport, as they appear to recognize apolipoprotein-phospholipid complexes.
