The observed equilibrium constants (Kobs) of the creatine kinase (EC 2.7.3.2), myokinase (EC 2.7.4.3), glucose-6-phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.9), and fructose-1,6-diphosphatase (EC 3.1.3.11) reactions have been determined at 38 degrees C, pH 7.0, ionic strength 0.25, and varying free magnesium concentrations. The equilibrium constant (KCK) for the creatine kinase reaction defined as: KCK = [sigma ATP] [sigma creatine] divided by ([sigma ADP] [sigma creatine-P] [H+]) was measured at 0.25 ionic strength and 38 degrees C and was shown to vary with free [Mg2+]. The value was found to be 3.78 x 10(8) M-1 at free [Mg2+] = 0 and 1.66 x 10(9) M-1 at free [Mg2+] = 10(-3) M. Therefore, at pH 7.0, the value of Kobs, defined as Kobs = KCK[H+] = [sigma ATP] [sigma creatine] divided by ([sigma ADP] [sigma creatine-P] was 37.8 at free [Mg2+] = 0 and 166 at free [Mg2+] = 10(-3) M. The Kobs value for the myokinase reaction, 2 sigma ADP equilibrium sigma AMP + sigma ATP, was found to vary with free [Mg2+], being 0.391 at free [Mg2+] = 0 and 1.05 at free [Mg2+] = 10(-3) M. Taking the standard state of water to have activity equal to 1, the Kobs of glucose-6-P hydrolysis, sigma glucose-6-P + H2O equilibrium sigma glucose + sigma Pi, was found not to vary with free [Mg2+], being 110 M at both free [Mg2+] = 0 and free [Mg2+] = 10(-3) M. The Kobs of fructose-1,6-P2 hydrolysis, sigma fructose-1,6-P2 equilibrium sigma fructose-6-P + sigma Pi, was found to vary with free [Mg2+], being 272 M at free [Mg2+] = 0 and 174 M at free [Mg2+] = 0.89 x 10(-3) M.

Female rats were injected subcutaneously with ethionine, and enzymic activities of liver membranes (Na+-k+-stimulated ATPase, Mg2+-stimulated ATPase, glucose-6-phosphatase, NADPH: cytochrome c oxido-reductase and NAD-nucleosidase) examined at proper intervals, during the intraperitoneal treatment of an egg phospholipid preparation (EPL). It is shown that EPL is unable to overcome the enzymic changes due to severe ethionine treatment, but is able to facilitate the recovery times after drug withdrawal for all the enzymic activities, except for NAD-nucleosidase. At lower dosage of the drug, the ethionine treatment is able to prevent the observed change of the glucose-6-phosphatase activity but not that of the Mg2+-ATPase. It is suggested that the EPL treatment may modify the chemical composition ahd/or architecture of liver membranes, altered by the ethionine injection, thus acting, at least partially, on the enzymic changes.

A primary objective of the present study has been to determine the changes which occur in Rana catesbeiana liver organelle membranes during thyroxine-induced metamorphosis. To this end, enzyme and cytochrome profiles were determined for mitochondria, microsomes, and nuclear membrane fractions isolated from livers of R. catesbeiana tadpoles which had been fasted for 6 days at 15 +/- 0.5 degrees and then immersed in thyroxine, 2.6 X 10(-8) M, for periods of up to 12 days at 23.5 +/- 0.4 degrees. The ratio of total succinate-cytochrome c reductase activity in the initial homogenate fraction to the total activity of this mitochondrial "marker" enzyme recovered in the final mitochondrial fraction remained constant, approximately 0.5, throughout the course of thyroxine treatment; however, after a 3- to 4-day latency the mitochondrial protein mass recovered per unit mass of initial homogenate protein was found to increase significantly (approximately 2-fold by Day 10 of thyroxine treatment). A similar increase was also observed in the yield of microsomal, but not nuclear membrane, protein mass as a function of thyroxine treatment. Prolonged thyroxine treatment (12 days) resulted in approximately 50% decreases in tadpole liver homogenate and microsomal NADH-cytochrome c reductase specific activities; in contrast, mitochondrial and nuclear membrane NADH-cytochrome c reductase specific activities were not altered under the same conditions. In addition, homogenate and microsomal NADPH-cytochrome c reductase specific activities were found to have increased significantly after 12 days of thyroxine treatment; however, the specific activity of NADPH-cytochrome c reductase in the mitochondrial fraction was unchanged. It was also observed that thyroxine treatment resulted in increases in homogenate and microsomal glucose-6-phosphatase specific activities, whereas the mitochondrial as well as nuclear membrane glucose-6-phosphatase specific activities remained unchanged. Furthermore, in contrast to homogenate and mitochondrial monoamine oxidase specific activities, which decreased 30 and 40%, respectively, as a consequence of thyroxine treatment (12 days), the succinate-cytochrome c reductase and oligomycin-sensitive Mg2+ ATPase specific activities determined for these fractions increased significantly. In all instances, changes as a result of thyroxine treatment in membrane-localized homogenate or organelle enzyme specific activities were apparent only after a 3- to 4-day initial latent period. The in vitro effects of thyroxine (10(-10) - 10(-5) M) on the membrane-localized enzyme activities examined in this study were either negligible or, as in the case of mitochondrial succinate-cytochrome c reductase and microsomal NADH-cytochrome c reductase, opposite to the changes observed in response to in vivo thyroxine treatment, with the exception of microsomal NADPH-cytochrome c reductase activity which was enhanced approximately 2-fold by 10(-5) M thyroxine...

Activities of a broad spectrum of enzymes were studied histochemically in renal adenocarcinomas induced in young male F344 rats by chronic dietary administration of the carcinogen N(4'-fluoro-4-biphenylyl)acetamide. Enzymes included were: dehydrogenases of glucose-6-phosphate, lactate, succinate, malate, and alpha-glycerophosphate; peroxidase (catalase); glucose-6-phosphatase; alkaline and acid phosphatase; Mg2+ ATPase; 5'-nucleotidase; and aminopeptidase. Levels of enzyme activity were estimated visually and scored from 0 (not detectable) to a maximum of 5 (intense). Comparison of estimated activity for each enzyme was made between small neoplastic nodules (stage III tumors) and large adenocarcinomas (stage IV tumors) and between tumors and portions of normal proximal tubules in parenchyma of kidneys from untreated control rats. The results, which revealed nearly identical levels of activity for most enzymes in both stages III and IV tumors, suggested similar metabolic and biologic behavior of these lesions. However, when data for tumors were compared with data for normal proximal tubules, striking differences were observed consistent with: 1) a marked shift of energy metabolism from oxidative to glycolytic production of ATP, with a corresponding reduction in mitochondrial respiration; and 2) simplification of plasma membrane specializations that were possibly associated with a reduction or loss of transport function. These findings were compared with other histochemical, biochemical, and ultrastructural studies of renal adenocarcinomas in rats and man.

Noradrenaline-storing granules, a mitochondrial fraction and a microsomal fraction of bovine splenic nerve trunks were prepared by differential centrifugation. These particulate fractions were characterized by their noradrenaline content, succinate dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphatase activity. In the presence of ATP-Mg2+ all three fractions accumulated 45Ca2+ during incubation with 0.1 mM 45 CaCl2, buffered with potassium phosphate or glycylglycine (pH 7.5; 28 degrees C). The accumulated 45 Ca2+ was not removable by EGTA, and the uptake was absent at 0 degrees C or after destruction of the particles by sonication. The behaviour of the 45 Ca2+ -uptake into all three fractions against varying ATP-concentrations, metabolic inhibitors (pentachlorophenol, desaspidine, 2,4-dinitrophenol, N-ethylmaleimide, p-chloromercuribenzoate, sodium azide, amobarbital) and drugs (phenoxybenzamine, verapamil, prenylamine, reserpine, bretylium, phentolamine) was studied. Under nearly all conditions there were differences between the 45 Ca2+ -uptake into mitochondria and that into microsomes, which suggests two distinct uptake processes. The 45 Ca2+ -uptake into the granule fraction behaved intermediate between the two other fractions under many conditions, but not under all. Therefore, it is not possible to explain the 45 Ca2+ -uptake into the granule fraction as being due to contamination with mitochondria and microsomes; an inherent ATP-Mg2+ -dependent 45Ca2+ -uptake into the nerve granules must be postulated, which is not directly coupled with the noradrenaline transport into these particles. A particulate fraction (14000-100000 g), containing noradrenaline granules, was prepared from the vas deferens of the rat. Incubation with 5 X 10(-6) M (-)-noradrenaline and 0.1 mM 45Ca2+ showed that the particles of this fraction take up noradrenaline and 45Ca2+. The uptake of both was dependent on ATP-Mg2+. The ATP-Mg2+ -dependent uptake of both noradrenaline and 45Ca2+ was substantially reduced in the corresponding tissue fraction prepared from denervated vasa deferentia.

Enveloped and unenveloped forms of herpes simplex virus (HSV) occurring in infected rabbit lung (ZP line) cells were purified by differential and discontinuous Ficoll density gradient centrifugation. Then the viral particles were separated in a sucrose-D2O density gradient. In the course of the procedures, both virus preparations were freed of Mg2+-dependent Na+ plus K+-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase), 5'-nucleotidase, and glucose-6-phosphatase activities. However, Mg2+ -activated ATPase was shown to be firmly associated with purified virions. The recovery of infectious virus was 50-60 percent. The specific infectivities (TCID50/mg protein) of the purified enveloped and unenveloped viral particles were 1-2 times 10(10) and 2-5 times 10(6), respectively. The infectivity of the unenveloped viral particles was discussed.

We have recently shown that the Ca.EGTA and Mg.EDTA complexes, but not free Ca2+ or Mg2+, inhibit the liver glucose-6-phosphatase (Mithieux, G., Vega, F. V., Beylot, M., and Riou, J. P. (1990) J. Biol. Chem. 265, 7257-7259). In this work, we report that, when complexed with Mg2+, two endogenous dicarboxylic keto acids (alpha-ketoglutarate (alpha-KG) and oxaloacetate (OAA] inhibit the glucose-6-phosphatase activity at low concentrations of substrate. This phenomenon is specific for complexes of Mg2+ with alpha-KG and OAA since 1) the complexes of Mg2+ with a number of other di- or tricarboxylic acids having high structural analogy with alpha-KG and OAA (oxalate, malate, succinate, citrate, aspartate, and glutamate) do not inhibit the glucose-6-phosphatase activity and 2) the Ca.alpha-KG and Ca.OAA chelates do not inhibit the glucose-6-phosphatase activity. In the presence of Mg.alpha-KG or Mg.OAA chelates, the enzyme displays sigmoid kinetics; the Hanes plots deviate from linearity, indicating the positive cooperative dependence of the velocity upon the substrate concentration. Hill coefficients (equal to 1 in the absence of the chelates) of 1.23 and 1.33 have been determined in the presence of Mg.alpha-KG and Mg.OAA complexes, respectively. The disruption of microsomal integrity by detergents abolishes the effect of Mg.alpha-KG and Mg.OAA, suggesting that the magnesium chelates inhibit the translocase component of the glucose-6-phosphatase system.

The amphiphilic cationic cardioactive drugs (pindolol, propranolol and amiodarone) were tested for their effects on lipid dynamics (measured by fluorescence depolarization) and on enzymatic activities up to 1 mM in purified cardiac sarcolemmal vesicles from adult rat. The vesicles were enriched 12- to 37-fold (with respect to tissue homogenate) in Na+/K+ ATPase, K+-stimulated p-nitrophenylphosphatase, 5'nucleotidase and adenylate cyclase, all of which are believed to be components of sarcolemma. Phospholipids and cholesterol content were enriched 5- and 13-fold respectively. There was very little contamination of the sarcolemmal vesicles by sarcoplasmic reticulum (as judged by Ca2+ ATPase and glucose-6-phosphatase activities) or mitochondria (as judged by cytochrome-c-oxidase activity). Pindolol had no effect on lipid dynamics and enzyme activities except for the isoproterenol-stimulated adenylate cyclase. The latter was also totally inhibited at 1 microM by propranolol which inhibited Mg2+ ATPase and increased fluidity above 20 microM. Amiodarone affected all the enzyme activities (except Na+/K+ ATPase): isoproterenol-stimulated adenylate (IC50 = 30 microM), Mg2+ ATPase (IC50 = 20 microM) and K+-stimulated-p-nitrophenylphosphatase were inhibited; 5'nucleotidase was activated above 2 microM. By contrast with propranolol, amiodarone decreased lipid mobility. The effect was linear with the concentration of the drug above 1 microM.

The following enzymes have been studied (subcellular fractions are shown between parentheses): NAG and beta-glucuronidase (lysosomes); SDH (mitochondrial); glucose-6-phosphatase (endoplasmic reticulum); 5'-nucleotidase and (Na+, K+)Mg2+ ATPase (plasma membranes). Alterations on their activities were observed after subcutaneous injection of sex hormones, compared with controls. NAG activity from liver was always significantly decreased in lysosomal and microsomal fractions after the hormonal treatment. In the same conditions, NAG from brain was always increased. beta-Glucuronidase behaves like NAG in brain; in liver it was not modified by testosterone and it was slightly increased in lysosomal fraction after oestradiol treatment. SDH activity was not modified in mitochondrial fractions from liver, but this activity was always significantly increased in brain. Glucose-6-phosphatase activity was always significantly decreased in microsomal fractions from liver. It was increased in brain after oestradiol and testosterone injection, but medroxyprogesterone treatment caused a decreased activity. 5'-Nucleotidase and (Na+, K+)Mg2+ ATPase from brain were significantly increased in microsomal fractions by oestradiol and testosterone. Medroxyprogesterone, however, caused an increase in ATPase, but did not affect 5'-nucleotidase. Both activities in liver were decreased by oestradiol and increased by testosterone, but medroxyprogesterone caused (Na+, K+)Mg2+ ATPase to rise and 5'-nucleotidase to fall.

The effect of subcutaneous injection of hydrocortisone and corticosterone on the activity values of some subcellular fractions marker enzymes from rat liver and brain was investigated and compared with controls (without treatment with hormones). The following enzymes were studied (subcellular fraction are shown between parentheses): N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase and beta-glucuronidase (lysosomes); succinate dehydrogenase = SDH (mitochondria); glucose-6-phosphatase (endoplasmic reticulum); 5'-nucleotidase and Na+-K+-Mg2+ ATPase (plasma membrane). The specific activity of lysosomal enzymes from liver showed no change when rats were injected either with hydrocortisone or corticosterone. The same enzymes from brain showed significant increases in their activities with both hydrocortisone or corticosterone except beta-glucuronidase; this enzyme gave activity values remaining between the control levels, after treatment with corticosterone. The activity of mitochondrial SDH was increased after corticosterone injection either in liver or brain. After hydrocortisone injection, its activity rises significantly in brain (72%), but it falls in liver compared to the control values. Glucose-6-phosphatase behaves similarly in brain or liver fractions; its activity increases always after corticosterone treatment and decreases by hydrocortisone. The plasma membrane marker enzymes did not change practically in brain fractions, excepted Na+-K+-Mg2+ ATPase which tends to rise its activity after hydrocortisone injection. In liver fractions, both 5'-nucleotidase and Na+-K+-Mg2+ ATPase activities increase either by corticosterone or hydrocortisone treatment, except 5'-nucleotidase which specific activity decreases in liver after hydrocortisone treatment.
