1. Haemoglobin-free erythrocyte ghosts were prepared in 40 imosM bicarbonate buffer, pH 7.4, containing 1 mM EDTA (40 imosM/l mM EDTA). The ghost preparation was highly permeable on preparation but partially resealed on incubation in media containing Ca-2+. 2. A partially purified preparation of phospholipase C from Clostridum welchii caused an increase in observed Mg-2+-ATPase activity, reflecting a change in the permeability of the ghost to substrate. The phospholipase did not decrease Mg-2+-ATPase even at the highest levels tested. Mg-2+-ATPase activity could therefore be used as a permeability indicatior in these experiments. 3. Both (Ca-2+, Mg-2+)-ATPase activities of the ghosts were progressively lost as a result of the phospholipid hydrolysis induced by phospholipase C. 4. When a haemolysin in the commercial preparation was destroyed by heat-treatment, deactivation of the (Ca-2+, Mg-2+)-ATPase and (Na+, K+, Mg-2+)-ATPases were still observed but permeability changes were greatly reduced. 5. The products of phospholipase action were not inhibitory to the Ca-2+, Mg-2+)-ATPase. 6. Lysolecithin brought about a reactivation of the (Ca-2+, Mg-2+)-ATPase which was superimposed upon permeability changes in the preparation. 7. Reactivation of the (Ca-2+, Mg-2+)-ATPase was brought about by a nonlytic, mixed lipid preparation without significant effect upon permeability. 8. Human erythrocyte (Ca-2+, Mg-2+)-ATPase therefore appears to be an enzyme which responds to perturbation of the lipid environment in the membrane and is a "lipid-dependant" enzyme.

Our purpose was to determine whether phospholipase C stimulated thymidine kinase activity of regenerating rat liver. We determined effects of phospholipase C upon TMP formation by rat liver extracts prepared at 0, 12, 24, 36 and 48 hr following partial hepatectomy. Data were obtained which supported these conclusions: (a) Commercial preparations of phospholipase C contained nucleoside phosphotransferase activity; (b) phospholipase C exerted no appreciable stimulatory influence upon thymidine kinase activity of regenerating rat liver; and (c), apparent stimulation of thymidine kinase was associated with linked activities of two enzymes, viz., liver extract-ATPase activity and nucleoside phosphotransferase activity.

The activation by Mg2+, in the presence of 0.2 mM Ca2+, of the erythrocyte ATPase from rats fed with six different fat-supplemented diets has been studied. A sigmoid kinetic curve was found. The values of the Hill coefficient showed a positive correlation with the membrane fatty acid fluidity, which is expressed as the ratio between double bond index and saturated fatty acid content. The values of the Hill coefficient ranged from 1.0, in animals fed with lard-supplemented diet, to 2.0, in animals fed with corn oil-supplemented diet. When the effect of increasing Ca2+ concentration in these two groups was studied at pH 8.1, an activation with the latter group and an inhibition with the former one were found. The activation by Ca2+ found in corn oil-fed animals was lost after treatment with phospholipase C and restored after the addition of homologous phospholipids. The activation could not be restored by addition of phospholipids from lard-fed animals. In this group, treatment with phospholipase C left the kinetic behavior unmodified, but an activation by Ca2+ could be detected after adding phospholipids from corn oil-fed animals. It is suggested that membrane fatty acid fluidity is involved in the cooperative transitions and cryptic activity of the (Mg2+ + Ca2+)-ATPase.

1. The thiol group of fragmented sarcoplasmic reticulum that is protected from reaction with N-ethylmaleimide by 1 mM ATP was labelled with N-ethyl-[2,3-14C2] maleimide. Autoradiography after electrophoresis of this material on dodecylsulphate/polyacrylamide gels showed that this group is located on the polypeptide chain of the ATPase. 2. The ATP-protected thiol group of fragmented sarcoplasmic reticulum has been labelled by treatment with either 1-(2,4,-dinitrophenylamino), 6-(N-maleimido) hexane or N, N'-bis(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-L-cystine. The total dinitrophenyl contents of the dinitrophenyl-vesicle conjugates found by spectrophotometry were in good agreement with the ATP-protected thiol content, especially in the case of the N,N'-bis(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-L-cystine-treated vesicles. Fluorescence-quenching titrations of anti-dinitrophenyl-antibody tryptophyl fluorescence with the dinitrophenyl-vesicle conjugates showed that not all the dinitrophenyl groups were available for combination with antibody. 3. Phospholipase C(EC 3.1.4.3) digestion of ATP-protected, N-ethylmaleimide-treated vesicles, labelled with dinitrophenyl groups using N,N'-bis(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-L-cystine, caused the dinitrophenyl groups to become completely inaccessible to anti-dinitrophenyl-antibody, although no dinitrophenyl groups were lost during the incubation. This indicates a possible crowding together of the ATPase molecules as the effective membrane area was reduced.

The Km value for the dog heart (Na+-K+)-ATPase was 0.31 mM (MgATP), whereas the values for the concentrations of K+ and Na+ varied from 1.2 to 2.7 mM and 12 to 20 mM for half-maximal activation, respectively. The concentrations of ouabain and calcium for 50 percent inhibition of (Na+-K+)-ATPase activity varied from 2.4 to 3.2 muM and 0.5 to 1.2 mM, respectively, the inhibitory effects of these agents were pH dependent. This preparation bound about 50 nmoles of 1-anilino-8-napthaline sulfonate (ANS)/mg of protein and exhibited fluorescence attributable to the ANS-enzyme complex. Cations such as Na+,K+,Ca++, and Mg++ increased ANS-enzyme fluorescence intensity and the number of ANS binding sites but decreased the apparent ANS binding constant. The enzyme activity, ANS binding, and ANS-enzyme fluorescence were decreased by phospholipase A, phospholipase C, and trypsin treatments. Although ouabain inhibited enzyme activity and ANS-enzyme fluorescence markedly, it caused only a slight depression in ANS binding. These results extend support for the allosteric nature of the cardiac (Na+-K+)-ATPase and provide evidence for conformational changes during its activation by Na+ and K+.

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.

Treatment of red cell membranes with pure phospholipase C inactivates (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity and Na+-dependent phosphorylation but increases K+-dependent phosphatase activity. When phospholipase A2 replaces phospholipase C, all activities are lost. Activation of K+-dependent phosphatase by treatment with phospholipase C is caused by an increase in the maximum rate of hydrolysis of p-nitrophenylphosphate and in the maximum activating effect of K+, the apparent affinities for substrate and cofactors being little affected. After phospholipase C treatment K+-dependent phosphatase is no longer sensitive to ouabain but becomes more sensitive to N-ethylmaleimide. In treated membranes Na+ partially replaces K+ as an activator of the phosphatase. Although ATP still inhibits phosphatase activity, neither ATP, nor ATP+Na+ are able to modify the apparent affinity for K+ of K+-dependent phosphatase in these membranes.

1. The requirement for specific polar head groups of phospholipids for activity of purified (Na+ + K+)ATPase from rabbit kidney outer medulla has been investigated. 2. Comparison of content and composition of phospholipids in microsomes and the purified enzyme indicates that purification leads to an increase in the phospholipid/protein ratio and in phosphatidylserine content. 3. The purified preparation contains 267 molecules phospholipid per molecule (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, viz. 95 phosphatidylcholine, 74 phosphatidylethanolamine, 48 spingomyelin, 35 phosphatidylserine and 15 phosphatidylinositol. 4. Complete conversion of phosphatidylserine into phosphatidylethanolamine by the enzyme phosphatidylserine decarboxylase has no effect on the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity of the purified preparation. 5. Complete hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol by a phospholipase C from Staphylococcus aureus, which is specific for this phospholipid, has no effect on the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity. 6. Hydrolysis of 95% of the phosphatidylcholine and 60--70% of the spingomyelin and phosphatidylethanolamine by another phospholipase C (Clostridium welchii) lowers the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity by about 20%. 7. Combination of the phospholipid-converting enzymes has the same effect as can be calculated from the effects of the enzymes separately. Only complete conversion of both phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylinositol results in a loss of 44% of the (NA+ + K+)-ATPase activity and 36% of the potassium 4-nitrophenylphosphatase activity. 8. These experiments indicate that there is no absolute requirement for one of the polar head groups, although in the absence of negative charges the activity is lower than in their presence.

Incubation of rabbit kidney microsomes with pig pancreatic phospholipase A2 produced residual membrane preparations with very low (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity. The activity could be restored by recombination with lipid vesicles of negatively-charged glycerophospholipids. Vesicles of pure phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine were virtually inactive in this respect, but could reactivate in the presence of cholate. Incubation of the microsomes with a combination of phospholipase C (Bacillus cereus) and spingomyelinase C (Staphylococcus aureus) resulted in 90--95% release of the phospholipids. The residual membrane contained only phosphatidylinositol and still showed 50--100% of the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity.

Treatment of human red cell membranes with pure phospholipase A2 results in a progressive inactivation of both Ca2+-dependent and (Ca2+ + K+)-dependent ATPase and phosphatase activities. When phospholipase C replaces phospholipase A2, Ca2+-dependent ATPase activity and Ca2+-dependent phosphorylation of red cell membranes are lost, while Ca2+-dependent phosphatase activity is enhanced and its apparent affinity for Ca2+ is increased about 20-fold. Activation of Ca2+-dependent phosphatase following phospholipase C treatment was not observed in sarcoplasmic reticulum preparation. Phospholipase C increases the sensitivity of the phosphatase to N-ethylmaleimide but has little effect on the kinetic parameters relating the phosphatase activity to substrate and cofactors, suggesting that no extensive structural disarrangement of the Ca2+-ATPase system has occurred after incubation with phospholipase C.
