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.

A study was made of 111 strains of plasma-negative spathylococci isolated from the blood, pleural fluid, urine, and exudate of the abdominal cavity of 30 patients. The studies were carried out by 18 criteria. A variety of biological properties and signs characteristic of pathogenic staphylococci (hemolytic activity, anaerobic splitting of mannite, the presence of phosphatase, lysozyme, protease, alpha-toxin, fibrinolysin) were noted. A high resistance to tetracycline and penicillin was found in the strains isolated from the blood and the pleural cavity.

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.

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.

NAD+ glycohydrolase activity located in the nuclear envelope was maximally solubilized by treatment with 0.1--0.2% Triton X-100. The residual activity largely represents the chromatin-associated NAD+ glycohydrolase. Under these conditions the phospholipids were extensively solubilized (over 90%) while leaving the nuclei physically stable, although the nuclear membranes were removed, as shown by electron microscopy. After Triton X-100 treatment, deoxyribonuclease I did not significantly affect the residual NAD+ glycohydrolase activity, although the DNA was completely broken down. This enzyme activity can be released from the nuclear pellet by incubation with phospholipase C. For comparative studies, the glucose 6-phosphatase activity, known to be present in the nuclear envelope, was investigated. Treatment with 0.01% Triton X-100 released 10--20% of the phospholipids, but without solubilizing either glucose 6-phosphatase or NAD+ glycohydrolase. Higher Triton X-100 concentrations (0.1--1.0%) inhibited glucose 6-phosphatase, but not NAD+ glycohydrolase activity. NAD+ glycohydrolase is apparently present in a latent form in the nuclear envelope. Glucose 6-phosphatase, However, shows no such latency.

Rabbit ileum strips were functionally skinned by exposure to staphylococcal alpha-toxin. Incubation of the strips in the ATP analog ATP gamma S or [35S]ATP gamma S in the presence of Ca2+ (but not in the absence of Ca2+) resulted in a maximal Ca2+-insensitive activated tension that persisted following removal of Ca2+. Correlated with this tension was 35S-labeling of the 20,000-dalton myosin light chain, LC20, that persisted even after removal of Ca2+. Tension in these strips partially relaxed when exposed to ATP (alpha,beta-methylene). In contrast, alpha-toxin-treated strips exposed to ATP or [gamma-32P]ATP showed Ca2+-sensitive, reversible activated tension and reversible 32P-labeling of the LC20. These results are consistent with a currently proposed model of Ca2+ control of smooth muscle contraction involving a myosin light chain kinase-phosphatase system.

Biochemical features and sensitivity to chemotherapeutic agents of 190 strains of Staphylococcus isolated from pharinx and conjunctiva of ophtalmological patients and staff were studied. Each strain was investigated for: pigment, coagulase, hemolysis (alpha-toxin), phosphatase and penicillinase production and mannite fermentation. Twentyfour chemotherapeutic angents were used for sensitivity tests. The Authors emphasize that a positive coagulase test is the best laboratory evidence for pathogenicity of a given strain of Staphylococcus, and that the site of isolation of the examined strains is not related with their biochemical features and sensitivity to chemotherapeutic agents.

The release of beta-lysin, which followed the intravenous injection of antigen-antibody complexes, did not take place when these complexes were added to citrated whole blood but did occur in heparinized blood. beta-Lysin release in heparinized blood was inhibited by citrate but were reversed by the addition of calcium ions that implicated complement reactions. Fourteen different enzymes were added to platelet-rich plasma (PRP). Streptokinase, neuraminidase, papain, phospholipase C, sulfatase, and trypsin caused platelets to release significant quantities of beta-lysin, whereas elastase, phosphatase, protease, ribonuclease A, hyaluronidase, lipase, and pepsin caused little or no increase in the plasma beta-lysin concentration. One enzyme, fibrinolysin, inactivated beta-lysin faster than it was released. The enzyme-induced release of beta-lysin from PRP was often accompanied by a reduction in the number of platelets. The intravenous injection of streptokinase, neuraminidase, and sulfatase caused in vivo releases of beta-lysin into the plasma. The platelet-aggregating substances collagen, arachidonic acid, and adenosine 5'-diphosphate caused beta-lysin to be released from PRP. The platelet-aggregating substances L-epinephrine, zymosan, fibrinogen, reserpine, and serotonin caused little or no release of beta-lysin from platelets. The results of this study indicate that the release of beta-lysin during antigen-antibody-complement reactions, blood coagulation, phagocytosis, and inflammation could be enzyme mediated.

Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) is an intracellular messenger generated from the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate by phospholipase C in response to Ca(2+)-mobilizing stimuli. InsP3 interacts with a specific receptor responsible for the release of sequestered Ca2+ from an intracellular store. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the relative affinities of the naturally occurring D-isomer of InsP3 and that of its L-stereoisomer for the InsP3 receptor and the InsP3 metabolizing enzymes from bovine adrenal cortex. The InsP3 receptor recognized D- and L-isomers with respective affinities of 4.8 nM and 7.3 microM. This high degree of selectivity was also reflected in the capacity of both isomers to mobilize Ca2+ from the microsomal preparation. The partially purified InsP3 kinase preparation was also able to discriminate between the two stereoisomers. The activity of the kinase was half-maximally inhibited in the presence of 11 microM L-InsP3, a value much higher than the Km of the kinase for D-InsP3 (0.4 microM). Both stereoisomers exhibited equipotent affinities (around 17 microM) for the particulate preparation of InsP3 phosphatase. The enzyme, however, appeared to hydrolyze L-InsP3 at a much slower rate. These results demonstrated that the different recognition sites for InsP3 were expressing distinct levels of stereoselectivity. This property, which is an important aspect of ligand-receptor interaction, could be exploited for the design of new selective drugs interfering with InsP3 action and metabolism.

We examined the role of MHC class II molecules in transducing signals to activated human T cells. Cross-linking of MHC class II molecules synergized with submitogenic amounts of anti-CD3 mAb in causing proliferation and secretion of the cytokines IL-2, IL-3, IFN-gamma, and TNF-alpha by MHC class II-alloreactive T cell lines. Signaling via MHC class II molecules in T cells resulted in activation of tyrosine kinases, in generation of inositol phosphates, and in Ca2+ mobilization that was abrogated by the tyrosine kinase inhibitor herbimycin A. Thus, like signaling via TCR/CD3, signaling via MHC class II molecules involved tyrosine kinase-dependent activation of phospholipase C, resulting in phosphoinositol turnover and Ca2+ flux. However the signaling pathways coupled to MHC class II molecules and to TCR/CD3 differed, because engagement of the transmembrane phosphatase CD45 inhibited Ca2+ fluxes triggered via TCR/CD3 but not Ca2+ fluxes triggered via MHC class II molecules.
