To understand the mechanism of the action of ATP on the in vitro transport of the rapidly-labeled RNA from isolated nuclei, the fate of ATP during the incubation as well as the effect of ATP, its analogues and other ribonucleoside triphosphates on the transport was examined and the following results were obtained. (1) More than 97% of added ATP remained acid soluble. No polyadenylation of the rapidly-labeled RNA in the released fraction by added ATP occurred although new polyadenylate segments smaller than 10 S were synthesized. (2) The addition of an ATP-generating system to the reaction mixture restored the initial rate of the release of the rapidly-labeled RNA from isolated nuclei. (3) Among the ribonucleoside triphosphates tested, ATP was most effective in stimulating the release. GTP was about 2/3 as effective as ATP. UTP showed some effect, but CTP showed no effect. EDTA was also non-effective. (4) When no ATP-generating system was added to the reaction mixture, AMP failed to mimic the effect of ATP. However, the combination of AMP and pyrophosphate could take the place of ATP. (5) Both AMP-CPP and AMP-PCP, the ATP analogues, showed the equal degree of their effect on the release, regardless of the position of the methylene bond. From these results, the principal role of ATP in the in vitro transport systems seemed to be its interaction with isolated nuclei to dissociate a structure which retains the rapidly-labeled RNA in the nucleus.

ATP promoted biphasic effects on both basal and fMLP-stimulated arachidonic acid (AA) release in neutrophil-like HL60 cells: stimulation in the micromolar range (EC50 = 3.2 +/- 0.9 microM) and inhibition at higher concentrations (EC50 = 90 +/- 11 microM). ATP also inhibited UTP- and platelet activating factor-stimulated AA release. Only stimulatory effects of ATP on basal or fMLP-stimulated phospholipase C were observed. The inhibitory effect of ATP on AA release was not due to reacylation of released AA, chelation of extracellular Ca2+, cell permeabilization, or changes in the rise of [Ca2+]i induced by agonist. The inhibition was rapid, being detected within 5-15 s. The inhibitory effect of ATP on fMLP-stimulated AA release could be desensitized by pretreatment of the cells with 2 mM ATP, but not 20 microM ATP, the concentration that resulted in maximal release of AA and inositol phosphates. The inhibition by ATP was neither dependent on generation of adenosine by ATP hydrolysis nor the result of direct interaction of ATP with P1 purinergic receptors. Among other nucleotides tested (CTP, GTP, ITP, TTP, XTP, adenosine 5'-(beta,gamma-methylene)triphosphate (AMP-PCP), adenyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate (AMP-P(NH)P), ADP, adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (ATP gamma S), and UTP), only UTP and ATP gamma S displayed biphasic effects with potencies and efficacies almost identical to those of ATP. The other nucleotides only exhibited stimulatory effects (EC50 = 60-300 microM). The results are consistent with a model of dual regulation of AA release by two distinct subtypes of P2U receptors in HL60 cells.

Human polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) respond to ATP with an elevation in intracellular calcium and a marked enhancement of O2-production in response to stimulation by the chemotactic peptide N'-formyl-Met-Leu-Phe (FMLP). These pertussis toxin-sensitive pathways appear to be mediated by a nucleotide receptor(s) on the surface of human PMN. In the current study, we have examined the binding to intact human PMN of the ATP analog, adenosine 5'-O-(3-thio[35S] triphosphate) [( 35S]ATP gamma S). On the basis of Scatchard analysis, the binding of [35S]ATP gamma S involves at least two sites, one of high and one of low affinity. In the presence of sodium thiophosphate, a compound which did not affect intracellular increases in calcium induced by ATP or N'-formyl-Met-Leu-Phe, a significant fraction of the [35S]ATP gamma S binding was eliminated. This reduction involved both high and low affinity binding of [35S]ATP gamma S and was related to a reduction in numbers of binding sites. The Kd values for the high affinity binding site were unaffected by the presence of sodium thiophosphate, although the low affinity Kd values were numerically increased by 2-fold. In the presence of thiophosphate, [35S]ATP gamma S binding was specific, saturable, and reversible, and was related to a single class of high affinity (Kd = 36 +/- 19 nM) binding sites (184 +/- 144 sites/cell), together with a second class of low affinity (Kd = 1110 +/- 503 nM) binding sites (13,562 +/- 6,851 sites/cells). Competitive binding experiments, based on the ability of nucleotides and ATP analogs to block [35S]ATP gamma S binding to PMN, revealed a rank order of ATP gamma S greater than ATP greater than 2-MeS-ATP = 8-Bromo ATP greater than ADP = ITP greater than AMP-PCP = GTP much greater than CTP. A comparison between the ability of nucleotides to compete with [35S]ATP gamma S binding and their ability to induce a biologic response (elevation of intracellular calcium) revealed a close correlation (r2 = 0.83). These findings support the possibility of a common nucleotide PMN receptor functionally linked to a cellular response which involves increases in intracellular calcium.

Uptake of the catecholamines (CA), dopamine (DA) and norepinephrine (NE) into synaptosomes prepared from rat and bovine brains was potentiated by ATP (from 0.1 to 5.0 mM) in a dose-dependent manner. Other nucleotides, particularly the nonhydrolyzable ATP analogs beta,gamma-imidoadenosine-5'-triphosphate (AMP-PNP) and beta,gamma-methyladenosine-5'-triphosphate (AMP-PCP) also potentiated [3H]DA and [3H]NE uptake. Several endogenous 5'-nucleotide triphosphates (e.g. GTP, UTP and CTP) potentiated [3H]CA uptake, but were less effective than ATP. Among the ATP metabolites, only ADP potentiated uptake whereas AMP and adenosine did not. [3H]Dopamine uptake measured in Krebs bicarbonate buffer had a Km of 2.1 microM and a Vmax of 163.9 pmol/mg prot./min. In presence of ATP, [3H]DA uptake had much higher affinity (Km = 0.56 microM) and larger capacity (Vmax = 333 pmol/mg prot./min) than uptake in absence of added ATP. Furthermore, [3H]DA uptake in presence of ATP had faster rate of uptake, and was independent of temperature while in absence of added ATP it was temperature-dependent. This ATP-dependent [3H]DA uptake was retained by synaptosomal ghosts that were obtained after lysing the striatal synaptosomes and removing their contents of synaptic vesicles and mitochondria. It is proposed that, in addition to the carrier-mediated (neuronal) uptake of CA, there is neuronal uptake that is regulated by ATP and inhibited by cocaine, which may be more relevant for terminating the synaptic action of CA because of its faster rate of uptake and larger capacity.

Micromolar concentrations of copper (Cu2+) and cysteine induce rapid efflux of calcium from sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) vesicles. This effect appears to be due to a Cu2+-catalyzed oxidation of the added cysteine to a critical sulfhydryl group on the release protein from sarcoplasmic reticulum (J. L. Trimm, G. Salama, and J. J. Abramson (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 16092-16098). The data presented here indicate that adenine nucleotides synergistically stimulate copper/cysteine (oxidation)-induced calcium efflux from SR vesicles. The order of effectiveness in stimulating calcium efflux is ATP greater than AMP-PCP greater than cAMP greater than AMP greater than adenine approximately NAD approximately NADH. Non-adenine-containing nucleotides such as GTP, CTP, UTP, and ITP and the high energy phosphate compound, acetyl phosphate, were ineffective in stimulating oxidation-induced calcium efflux. The relative effectiveness of various adenine nucleotides in stimulating calcium-induced calcium efflux and oxidation-induced calcium efflux are identical, suggesting that a common mode of action is involved when calcium release is triggered by either method. The stimulatory effect of the adenine nucleotides on oxidation-induced efflux is independent of external magnesium concentration and independent of the magnesium gradient across the SR membrane.

1. Adult female Culex pipiens and Culiseta inornata have purinergic receptors that respond to extracellular ADP and related compounds. Stimulation of these receptors caused ingestion of artificial diets. Addition of bicarbonate to the saline solvent enhanced the phagostimulatory effect. Saline-bicarbonate was as effective a solvent as blood plasma for Cx. pipiens, and was used in the dose-effect determinations. Ranking of the potencies was: ADP greater than AMP-PNP greater than ATP = AMP greater than AMP-PCP much greater than 2'dAMP greater than 2'dADP greater than 2'dATP. At 1 mM concentration, ITP, GTP, CTP, UTP, c-AMP, 2'AMP, 3'AMP, DPG, or GSH + glucose caused fewer than 50% of the insects to gorge, as did 2'3'dd-ATP, A tetra P, and AMP-CPP at 100 microM. 2. The potency ranking for Cu. inornata was: ADP greater than AMP-PNP greater than ATP greater than AMP-PCP much greater than AMP much greater than AMP-S. The concentrations required to produce the ED50 response (inducing 50% of the test insects to gorge) were much higher than those required for Cx. pipiens; however, saline, not saline-bicarbonate, was used as the solvent. With the exception of the very low potency of AMP for Cu. inornata, the ADP potency index values for the other chemicals tested on both species are similar.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

When the effects of varying concentrations of ATP on the dissociation rate of the ouabain-enzyme complex were studied, the dissociation rate constant increased with increasing ATP concentrations up to 1 mM, and then decreased with further rise in ATP; indicating that ATP binds to two distinct sites on the complex. ADP and AMP-PNP had similar biphasic effects. GTP, CTP, UTP, and AMP-PCP reduced the dissociation rate. AMP and Pi had no effects. Increase in dissociation rate caused by 0.5 mM ATP was not abolished by saturating CTP, indicating the binding of CTP to only one of the two ATP sites. The data suggest the existence of separate catalytic and regulatory sites, with different affinities and nucleotide specificities.

The binding and cross-linking of the ATP photoaffinity analogue 8-azidoadenosine 5'-triphosphate (azido-ATP) with recA protein have been investigated, and through cross-linking inhibition studies, the binding of other nucleotide cofactors to recA protein has also been studied. The azido-ATP molecule was shown to be a good ATP analogue with regard to recA protein binding and enzymatic function by three criteria: first, the cross-linking follows a simple hyperbolic binding curve with a Kd of 4 microM and a cross-linking efficiency ranging from 10% to 70% depending on conditions; second, ATP, dATP, and adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (ATP-gamma-S) specifically inhibit the cross-linking of azido-ATP to recA protein; third, azido-ATP is a substrate for recA protein ATPase activity. Quantitative analysis of the cross-linking inhibition studies using a variety of nucleotide cofactors as competitors has shown that the binding affinity of adenine-containing nucleotides for recA protein decreases in the following order: ATP-gamma-S greater than dATP greater than ATP greater than adenylyl beta,gamma-imidodiphosphate (AMP-PNP) much greater than adenylyl beta,gamma-methylenediphosphate (AMP-PCP) approximately adenine. Similar competition studies also showed that nearly all of the other nucleotide triphosphates also bind to recA protein, with the affinity decreasing in the following order: UTP greater than GTP approximately equal to dCTP greater than dGTP greater than CTP. In addition, studies performed in the presence of single-stranded DNA demonstrated that the affinity of ATP, dATP, ATP-gamma-S, and AMP-PNP for recA protein is significantly increased. These results are discussed in terms of the reciprocal effects that nucleotide cofactors have on the modulation of recA protein--single-stranded DNA binding affinity and vice versa. In addition, it is demonstrated that nucleotide and DNA binding are necessary though not sufficient conditions for ATPase activity. The significance of this result in terms of the possible requirement of critically sized clusters of 15 or more recA protein molecules contiguously bound to DNA for ATPase activity is discussed.

Poliovirus replicase- and host factor-catalyzed copying of 3'-terminal polyadenylic acid [poly(A)] of poliovirion RNA was studied. Host factor-stimulated synthesis of polyuridylic acid [poly(U)] by the replicase required ATP in addition to UTP. ATP was not required for the oligouridylic acid-primed copying of 3'-terminal poly(A) of virion RNA. GTP, CTP, and AMP-PCP (5'-adenylyl beta-gamma methylenediphosphate, an ATP analog) could not replace ATP in host factor-stimulated synthesis of poly(U). Antibodies to poliovirus genome-linked protein (VPg) specifically precipitated in vitro-synthesized poly(U) from a host factor-stimulated reaction. The poly(U) synthesized in a host factor-stimulated reaction was shown to be attached to VPg precursor polypeptide(s) via a tyrosine-phosphate bond as found in poliovirion VPg-RNA.

Intracellular ATP-dependent Ca2+-sequestration mechanisms were studied in isolated dispersed rat pancreatic acini following treatment with saponin or digitonin to disrupt their plasma membranes. In the presence of 45Ca2+ concentrations less than 10(-6) mol/liter, addition of 5 mmol/liter ATP caused a rapid increase in 45Ca2+ uptake exceeding the control by fivefold. ADP mimicked the ATP effect by 50 to 60%, whereas other nucleotides such as AMP-PNP, AMP-PCP, CTP, UTP, ITP, GTP, cAMP and cGMP did not. Maximal ATP-promoted Ca2+ uptake was obtained at 10(-5) mol/liter Ca2+. Inhibition of Ca2+ uptake by mitochondrial inhibitors was dependent on the Ca2+ concentration, indicating the presence of different Ca2+ storage systems. Whereas the apparent half-saturation constant found for mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake was approximately 4.5 X 10(-7) mol/liter, in the presence of antimycin and oligomycin (nonmitochondrial uptake) it was approximately 1.4 X 10(-8) mol/liter. In the absence of Mg2+ both ATP- and ADP-promoted Ca2+ uptake was nearly abolished. The Ca2+ ionophore and mersalyl blocked Ca2+ uptake, Electron microscopy showed electron-dense precipitates in the rough endoplasmic reticulum of saponin-treated cells in the presence of Ca2+, oxalate and ATP, which were absent in intact cells and in saponin-cells without ATP or pretreated with A23187. The data suggest the presence of mitochondrial and nonmitochondrial ATP-dependent C2+ storage systems in pancreatic acini. The latter is likely to be located in the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
