1. Guanylate cyclase of washed particles and plasma membranes showed S-shaped progress curves when titrated with either GTP or Mn2+ ions; similar results were obtained with Triton X-100-solubilized enzyme preparation from washed particles. Hill plots of these data revealed multiple metal-nucleotide and free-metal binding sites. 2. Guanylate cyclase of supernatant fractions displayed typical Michaelis-Menten properties when enzyme required excess of (free) Mn2+ (over GTP) for maximal activities; Ka (free Mn2+) was about 0.15-0.25 mM at subsaturating concentrations of GTP. 4 MnATP, MnADP, and MnGDP were found to increase the activities of both particulate and superantant enzyme, when MnGTP concentration was below saturation and free Mn2+ ion concentration was low (less than 100 muM); MnATP (50muM-1 mM) inhibited both these activities at high free Mn2+ concentration (1.5 mM) and inhibition of the particulate enzyme was greater than that of supernatant enzyme. 5. Ca2+ ions stimulated supernatant-enzyme activity; the stimulatory concentration of Ca2+ ions depended on the concentration of Mn2+ and GTP. 6. A modest stimulation of particulate guanylate cyclase by pyrophosphate (0.02-1 mM) was observed; the pyrophosphate effect appeared to be competitive with respect to GTP. At a higher concentration (2 mM), pyrophosphate produced a marked inhibition of particulate enzyme; the nature of inhibitory effect appeared complex. 7. Inorganic salts (e.g. NaCl, KCl, LiBr, NaF) produced inhibition of particulate enzyme; the degree of inhibition of Triton X-100-stimulated activity was less than that of unstimulated activity. 9. Treatment of sarcolemmal or microsomal membranes with either phospholipase C or trypsin decreased, whereas phospholipase A increased, the activity of guanylate cyclase.

The latency of inosine-5'-diphosphatase has been studied in microsomes isolated from rat liver. The appearance of latent activity was the result of an increase in the Vmax of the enzyme. This was observed when assays were carried out in the presence of sodium deoxycholate, after microsomes were treated wtih phospholipase C, or at pH 10.3 and after microsomes were subjected to nitrogen cavitation. The apparent Km of inosine-5'-diphosphatase for IDP was unchanged when microsomes were treated with phospholipase C or at pH 10.3 after both these treatments approximately 85% of the enzyme remained bound to the membrane. In contrast, when microsomes were treated with phospholipase C or at pH 10.3 after both these treatments approximately 85% of the enzyme remained bound to the membrane. In contrast, when microsomes were treated with sodium deoxycholate or subjected to nitrogen cavitation, approximately 75% of the inosine-5'-diphosphatase activity was released from the membrane, and the apparent Km of the enzyme for IDP increased 4- and 2-fold, respectively. Microsomal cisternae were loaded with lead phosphate by incubation with glucose-6-P and Pb2+, and the release of this lead phosphate following the addition of EDTA to the medium was determined to estimate the permeability of the microsomal membrane. When microsomes were treated with sodium deoxycholate, phospholipase C, or at alkaline pH, the microsomal membrane became almost completely permeable to EDTA under conditions where there was little or no increase in the activity of inosine-5'-diphosphatase. Microsomes were treated at pH 10.3 and then adjusted slowly to pH 7.5. The activity of inosine-5'-diphosphatase decreased to the same activity observed in untreated preparations. The results seem of exclude the possibility that latent inosine-5'-diphosphatase activity is the result of an increased permeability of the membrane to IDP. They are, however, consistent with the presence of a noncompetitive inhibitor of the enzyme in the microsomal membrane.

Intact microsomes isolated from rat liver showed no hexose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity, but the enzyme was activated by Triton X-100, deoxycholate, NH4OH, glycine/NaOH, lysophosphatidylcholine, phospholipases A and C, pancreatic lipase and cholesterol esterase, and also by sonic treatment. The enzyme activation by deoxycholate, NH4OH and sonic treatments was solely due to solubilization, while that by phospholipase A appeared to be due to the detergent action of the hydrolysis products. On the other hand, the primary effects of phospholipase C, cholesterol esterase and pancreatic lipase might be accounted for by the partial removal of membrane lipids. The results of washing and trypsin digestion experiments suggested that hexose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase is one of the most firmly bound enzymes among the microsomal proteins. The catalytic properties were the same in the solubilized and the membrane-bound, activated enzymes. Feeding the rats on a high carbohydrate diet altered the extent of enzyme activation by sonication and phospholipase C treatment, suggesting that the microsomal membrane would actually undergo changes in the conformation and/or chemical composition under certain circumstances.

Investigations on the cholic acid CoA ligase activity of rat liver microsomes were made possible by the development of a rapid, sensitive radiochemical assay based on the conversion of [3H]choloyl-CoA. More than 70% of the rat liver cholic acid CoA ligase activity was associated with the microsomal subcellular fraction. The dependencies of cholic acid CoA ligase activity on pH, ATP, CoA, Triton WR-1339, acetone, ethanol, magnesium, and salts were investigated. The hypothesis that the long chain fatty acid CoA ligase activity and the cholic acid CoA ligase activity are catalyzed by a single microsomal enzyme was investigated. The ATP, CoA, and cholic (palmitic) acid kinetics neither supported nor negated the hypothesis. Cholic acid was not an inhibitor of the fatty acid CoA ligase and palmitic acid was not a competitive inhibitor of the cholic acid CoA ligase. The cholic acid CoA ligase activity utilized dATP as a substrate more effectively than did the fatty acid CoA ligase activity. The cholic acid and fatty acid CoA ligase activities appeared to have different pH dependencies, differed in thermolability at 41 degrees, and were differentially inactivated by phospholipase C. Moreover, fatty acid CoA ligase activity was present in microsomal fractions from all rat organs tested while cholic acid CoA ligase activity was detected only in liver microsomes. The data suggest that separate microsomal enzymes are responsible for the cholic acid and the fatty acid CoA ligase activities in liver.

The effects of various treatments, which affect membrane structure, on microsomal thiamine diphosphatase and thiamine triphosphatase activities of rat brain, were examined. The treatment of micorosomes at alkaline pH caused a 2-fold activation of the thiamine diphosphatase, this being related to a change in membrane structure which was evidenced by a decrease of the turbidity of the microsomal suspension. Repeated freezing and thawing after hypo-osmotic treatment also increased the activity of microsomal thiamine diphosphatase. In addition, the thiamine diphosphatase activity was enhanced by treatment of the microsomes with phospholipase C or acetone. This lipid depletion resulted in a marked reduction in the apparent Km value of the thiamine diphosphatase with a corresponding loss in heat stability of the enzyme. We found further that brain thiamine diphosphatase was solubilized by Triton X-100. This decreased the phospholipid content in the preparation, but did not affect the apparent Km value and heat stability of the enzyme. In contrast with thiamine diphosphatase, thiamine triphosphatase was inactivated by treatment at alkaline pH or with acetone. However, treatment with phospholipase C did not affect the activity of thiamine triphosphatase.

Plasma membrane preparations from KA31 (mouse) cells contained receptors for the binding of Rauscher murine leukemia virus (R-MuLV) envelope glycoprotein, gp70. This binding was demonstrated by gel filtration of a mixture of the microsomal fraction of the cells and 125I-labeled gp70. A rapid and convenient assay was developed to measure the complex formation between the membrane receptors and gp70 involving specific precipitation of the complex by 3 to 4% polyethylene glycol. The complex formation was responsive to the concentrations of both the receptor and gp70 and also to changes in temperature and pH. The gp70 binding was a noncooperative, saturable process, and an association constant of 3.5 X 10(8) M-1 was estimated from the binding data. The complex formation was reversible and a near-total exchange of 125I-labeled gp70 in the complex was achieved by incubation with excess of unlabeled gp70. The complex formation was inhibited by protein denaturing agents, guanidine-hydrochloride and urea. Pretreatment of the membrane fractions with either chymotrypsin or phospholipase C led to a loss of the membrane-associated receptor activity, indicating that a lipoprotein structure was important for the receptor function, consistent with the observation that nonionic detergents strongly inhibited the complex formation.

[14C]Choline was incorporated into microsomal membranes in vivo, and from CDP-[14C]choline in vitro, and the site of incorporation determined by hydrolysis of the outer leaflet of the membrane bilayer using phospholipase C from Clostridium welchii. Labelled phosphatidylcholine was found to be concentrated in the outer leaflet of the membrane bilayer with a specific activity approximately three times that of the inner leaflet. During incorporation of CDP-choline and treatment with phospholipase C the vesicles retained labelled-protein contents indicating that they remained intact. When the microsomes were opened with taurocholate after incorporation of [14C]choline in vivo, the labelled phosphatidylcholine behaved as a single pool. Selective hydrolysis of labelled phosphatidylcholine in intact vesicles is not, therefore, a consequence of specificity of phospholipase C. These results indicate that the phosphatidylcholine of the outer leaflet of the microsomal membrane bilayer is preferentially labelled by the choline-phosphotransferase pathway and that this pool of phospholipid does not equilibrate with that of the inner leaflet.

Sarcolemmal Ca++-ATPase, Mg++-ATPase, and (Na+-K+)-ATPase activities were increased in late stages of heart failure in myopathic hamsters (BIO 14.6) without any changes in the adenylate cyclase activity. On the other hand, these hamsters at early and moderate stages of heart failure showed depressions in mitochondrial calcium binding and uptake and microsomal calcium binding. Sarcolemmal (Na+-K+)-ATPase was decreased in failing hearts because of substrate lack, oxygen lack, and perfusion with Ca++-free, Na+-free, or K+-free medium. Both Mg++-ATPase and Ca++-ATPase activities of sarcolemma did not change on perfusing the hearts with substrate-free, hypoxic, Na+-free, or K+-free medium. Adenylate cyclase activity decreased on substrate-free or Ca++-free perfusion. Intracellular calcium overload produced by perfusing the hearts with medium containing calcium after Ca++-free perfusion was associated with decrease in all the sarcolemmal-bound enzyme activities. All types of failing hearts employed in this study showed a dramatic shift in the electrolyte composition. Failure of the cardiac muscle to generate contractile force on treatment with trypsin was associated with defects in the functions of sarcolemma, mitochondria, and sarcoplasmic reticulum, whereas such an effect on treatment with phospholipase C was limited to alterations in the activities of sarcolemma. The data suggest that abnormality at the level of sarcolemma plays an important role in the pathogenesis of heart dysfunction; however, the degree and direction of alterations in the sarcolemmal functions seem to be dependent upon the type of heart failure.

When isolated mitochondria or microsomes from rat liver were treated with phospholipase C, the incorporation of radioactive phospholipid precursors was markedly enhanced, presumably as a result of production of diglycerides by hydrolysis of endogenous phospholipids. Incorporation of CDP[14C]choline into lecithin in rat liver or BHK-21 mitochondria could be attributed to residual contamination from elements of the endoplasmic reticulum, with added diglycerides or with endogenous diglycerides produced by the phospholipase C treatment. A similar stimulation of [gamma32P]ATP incorporation into phospholipids was observed with exogenous or endogenous diglycerides, but the mitochondrial diglyceride kinase in either case was also related to the degree of microsomal contaminants. It was concluded that previous studies showing negligible capacity of mitochondria for lecithin biosynthesis de novo were not explainable on the basis of limited accessibility of added diglycerides, and that formation of phosphatidic acid by diglyceride kinase was not of significance in rat liver mitochondria.

1. Pure or impure C-type phospholipases hydrolysed rat liver microsomal phosphatides in situ at 5 degrees or 37 degrees C. At 5 degrees C mean hydrolysis of total phospholipids was 90% by Bacillus cereus and 75% by Clostridium perfringens (Clostridium welchii) C-type phospholipases. 2. Four degrees of inhibition of glucose 6-phosphatase (D-glucose 6-phosphate phosphohydrolase; EC 3.1.3.9) resulted. (a) At 37 degrees C inhibition was virtually complete and apparently irreversible. (b) At 5 degrees C phospholipase C inhibited 50-87% of the activity expressed by intact control microsomal fractions. (c) Bovine serum albumin present during delipidation alleviated most of this inhibition: at 5 degrees C phospholipase C plus bovine serum albumin inhibited by 0-35% (mean 18%):simultaneous stimulation by the destruction of its latency seems to offset glucose 6-phosphatase inhibition, sometimes completely. (d) If latency was first destroyed, phospholipase C plus bovine serum albumin inhibited 30-50% of total glucose 6-phosphatase activity at 5 degrees C. Only this inhibition is likely largely to reflect the lower availability of phospholipids, essential for maximal enzyme activity, as it is virtually completely reversed by added phospholipid dispersions. Co-dispersions of phosphatidylserine plus phosphatidylcholine (1:1, w/w) were especially effective but Triton X-100 was unable effectively to restore activity. 3. Considerable glucose 6-phosphatase activity survived 240min of treatment with phospholipase C at 5 degrees C, but in the absence of substrate or at physiological glucose 6-phosphate concentrations the delipidated enzyme was completely inactivated within 10min at 37 degrees C. However, 80mM-glucose 6-phosphate stabilized it and phospholipid dispersions substantially restored thermal stability. 4. It is concluded that glucose 6-phosphatase is at least partly phospholipid-dependent, and complete dependence is not excluded. For reasons discussed it is impossible yet to be certain which phospholipid class(es) the enzyme requires for activity.
