The gastric H,K-ATPase is an active transport protein that is responsible for the maintenance of a large pH gradient across the secretory canaliculus of the mammalian parietal cell. Acid secretion across these epithelial cell membranes is coupled to the potassium-stimulated hydrolysis of ATP catalyzed by H,K-ATPase, but the mechanism of coupling between ion transport and ATP hydrolysis is unknown. In order to investigate the enzymatic mechanism of this coupling, a peptide derived from the ATP binding site of H,K-ATPase has been purified and its amino acid sequence has been determined. The peptide was identified by the incorporation of a fluorescent probe, fluorescein 5'-isothiocyanate (FITC), into the active site before trypsin digestion of the protein. The labeling of the enzyme by FITC was associated with the irreversible inhibition of enzymatic activity, and both the labeling of the tryptic peptide and inhibition of activity were prevented when the reaction was performed in the presence of ATP. At 100% inhibition of activity, 3.5 +/- 1.6 nmol of FITC were incorporated per mg of protein. The amino acid sequence of the active site peptide is His-Val-Leu-Val-Met-Lys-Gly-Ala-Pro-Glu-Gln-Leu-Ser-Ile-Arg, and FITC reacts with the lysine. This sequence is very similar to sequences of fluorescein-labeled peptides from the ATP binding sites of Na,K-ATPase and Ca2+-ATPase, and suggests that the active site structures of these ion transport ATPases are similar.

The Cys127-Cys150 disulfide-bonded loop (L1) of the Torpedo californica Na,K-ATPase beta 1 subunit was substituted with the corresponding loop of the rat beta 1, mouse beta 2, or pig H,K-ATPase beta subunit. All the substituted mutant beta subunits assembled with the Na,K-ATPase alpha subunit in a trypsin-resistant manner. The mutants with L1 from the Na,K-ATPase beta subunit isoforms (rat beta 1 and mouse beta 2) each formed a functional complex with the Na,K-ATPase alpha subunit. On the other hand, the complex of the alpha subunit with the mutant beta subunit that was substituted with the pig H,K-ATPase beta subunit L1 was inactive as to ATP hydrolysis. Ser131 and Phe148 located within L1 of the pig H,K-ATPase beta subunit-substituted mutant were back-mutated to Pro131 and Arg148, respectively. The Phe148 to Arg mutation restored the ability of the mutant beta subunit substituted with the H,K-ATPase beta subunit L1 to form a functional complex with the alpha subunit. These results suggested that the Cys127-Cys150 loop of the Na,K-ATPase beta 1 subunit, especially Arg148, plays a critical role in the functional expression of Na,K-ATPase.

The vesicular gastric H,K-ATPase catalyzes an electroneutral H for K exchange allowing acidification of the intravesicular space. There is a total of 28 cysteines present in the alpha subunit of the gastric H,K-ATPase, of which 10 are found in the predicted transmembrane segments and their connecting loop, and 9 are present in the beta subunit, of which 6 are disulfide-linked. To determine which of these was accessible to extracytoplasmic attack, the enzyme was inhibited by four different substituted 2-pyridylmethylsulfinyl benzimidazoles, 5-methoxy-2-[(4-methoxy-3, 5-dimethyl-2-pyridyl)methylsulfinyl]-1H-benzimidazole (omeprazole), 2-[(4-trifluoroethoxy-3-methyl-2-pyridyl)methylsulfinyl]-1H-ben zimida zole (lansoprazole), 5-difluoromethoxy-2-[3, 4-methoxy-2-pyridyl)methylsulfinyl]-1H-benzimidazole (pantoprazole), and 2-[(4-(3-methoxypropoxy)-3-methyl)-2-pyridyl)methylsulfinyl]-1H-++ +benzi midazole (rabeprazole), under acid transporting conditions. All of these compounds are weak bases that accumulate in the acidic space generated by the pump and undergo an acid catalyzed rearrangement to a cationic sulfenamide, which forms disulfides with accessible cysteines. The relative rates of acid activation of these compounds corresponded to the relative rates of inhibition of ATPase activity and acid transport. Fragmentation of the enzyme by trypsin followed by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed that omeprazole bound covalently to one of the two cysteines in the domains containing the fifth and sixth transmembrane segments and their extracytoplasmic loop and to cysteine 892 in the loop between the seventh and eighth transmembrane segments, but inhibition correlated with the reaction with cysteines in the fifth and sixth domain. Lansoprazole bound to the cysteines in these two domains as well as to cysteine 321 toward the extracytoplasmic end of the third transmembrane segments. Pantoprazole bound only to either cysteine 813 or 822 in the fifth and sixth transmembrane region. The inhibition of Rabeprazole correlated also with its binding to this part of the protein, but this compound continued to bind after full inhibition, eventually binding also to cysteines 321 and 892. No binding was found to any of the cysteines in the seventh to tenth transmembrane segments. Thermolysin digestion of the isolated omeprazole-labeled fifth and sixth transmembrane pair showed that cysteine 813 was the site of labeling. It is concluded that binding of these sided reagents to cysteine 813 in the loop between transmembrane (TM)5 and TM6 is sufficient for inhibition of ATPase activity and acid transport by the gastric acid pump. Of the 10 cysteines present in the membrane and extracytoplasmic domain, only three are exposed sufficiently to allow reactivity with these cationic thiol reagents. The binding to cysteine 813 defines the location of the extracytoplasmic loop between TM5 and TM6 and places the carboxylic acids 820 and 824 conserved between the gastric H,K- and the Na,K-ATPases in TM6, consistent with their assumed role in cation binding.
