A 23 kDa GTP-binding protein was purified from pig heart sarcolemma. This protein was not ADP-ribosylated by cholera, pertussis and botulinum C3 toxins. In pig heart sarcolemma pertussis toxin ADP-ribosylated 40 kDa subunit of Gi-protein, cholera toxin--45 kDa subunit of Gs-protein, botulinum C3 toxin ADP-ribosylated a group of proteins with Mr 22, 26 and 29 kDa. Antiserum generated against the peptide common for all alpha-subunits of G-proteins did not react with purified 23 kDa protein. Trypsin cleaved the 23 kDa protein in the presence of guanyl nucleotides into a 22 kDa fragment. Proteolysis of the 39 kDa alpha 0-subunit from bovine brain plasma membranes and ADP-ribosylated 40 kDa alpha i-subunit from pig heart sarcolemma in the presence of GTP gamma S yielded the 37 and 38 kDa fragments, respectively. In the presence of GTP and GDP the proteolysis of alpha 0 yielded the 24 and 15 kDa fragments, while the proteolysis of ADP-ribosylated alpha i-subunit yielded a labelled 16 kDa peptide. Irrespective of nucleotides trypsin cleaved the ADP-ribosylated 26 kDa substrate of botulinum C3 toxin into two labelled peptides with Mr 24 and 17 kDa. The data obtained indicate the existence in pig heart sarcolemma of a new 23 kDa GTP-binding protein with partial homology to the alpha-subunits of "classical" G-proteins.

Several structural and enzymatic properties of myosin from skeletal muscles of neonatal and adult rabbits were compared. Electrophoretic analyses and proteolysis experiments indicated that differences between the two myosin types could be attributed to their heavy subunits. Circular dichroism measurements of subfragment-1 species, and trypsin-digested derivatives showed that the neonatal protein contained less alpha-helices than the adult form. The Mg2(+)-ATPase activity of neonatal myosin was lower than that of adult myosin, especially in the presence of actin. In comparison with adult subfragment-1, it was found that the binding of ATP analogues such as adenosine 5'-[beta, gamma-imino]triphosphate and PPi, or that of ATP (as deduced from the apparent KmATP) to neonatal subfragment-1 in the presence of actin was enhanced, while that of ADP was decreased. On the other hand, the association of actin with the ADP - neonatal-subfragment-1 complex was weaker. These features must be expressed in the cyclical actin-myosin association/dissociation steps occurring in ATP hydrolysis, and more particularly in the reassociation of actin with the ATP-hydrolysis-products - myosin complex.

Conformational changes of the beta chain of the outer-arm dynein from sea urchin sperm flagella in relation to ATP hydrolysis was examined by tryptic digestion. Tryptic digestion of the beta chain in the presence of 2 mM ATP (ADP) and 100 microM vanadate (Vi) or in the presence of 4 mM ATP gamma S produced different polypeptides from in the case of no addition. The difference was similar to the result previously reported for 21S outer-arm dynein heavy chains [Inaba, K. & Mohri, H. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 8384-8388]. Unlike the tryptic digestion pattern of 21S dynein heavy chains, however, the 135-kDa polypeptide was consistently produced from the beta chain, even in the presence of ATP (ADP) and Vi. The tryptic digestion pattern of the 21S particle reconstituted from the separated a chain, the beta/IC1 complex and the IC2/IC3 complex [Tang, W.-J.Y., Bell, C.W., Sale, W.S., & Gibbons, I.R. (1982) J. Biol. Chem. 257, 508-515] was similar to that of intact 21S dynein; the 135-kDa polypeptide was only slightly produced in the presence of ATP and Vi. The digestion rate constant of the 135-kDa polypeptide from the beta chain in the presence of ATP and Vi was significantly decreased as compared with in the case of 21S dynein or that of the reconstituted 21S particle. These results suggest that the trypsin sensitivity of the 135-kDa region of the beta chain changes with the association of the beta/ICI complex with the alpha chain and the IC2/IC3 complex in the presence of ATP and Vi.

The domain structures of the Escherichia coli Rep and Helicase II proteins and their ligand-dependent conformational changes have been examined by monitoring the sensitivity of these helicases to proteolysis by trypsin and chymotrypsin. Limited treatment of unliganded Rep protein (73 kDa) with trypsin results in cleavage at a single site in its carboxyl-terminal region, producing a 68-kDa polypeptide which is stabilized in the presence of ATP, ADP, or adenosine 5'-O-thiotriphosphate) (ATP gamma S). The purified 68-kDa Rep tryptic polypeptide retains single-stranded (ss) DNA binding, DNA unwinding (helicase), and full ATPase activities. When bound to ssDNA, the Rep protein can be cleaved by trypsin at an additional site in its carboxyl-terminal region, producing a 58-kDa polypeptide that also retains ssDNA binding and ATPase activities. This 58-kDa Rep tryptic polypeptide can also be produced by further tryptic treatment of the 68-kDa Rep tryptic polypeptide when the latter is bound to ssDNA. This 58-kDa polypeptide displays a lower affinity for ssDNA indicating that the 10-kDa carboxyl-terminal peptide facilitates Rep protein binding to ssDNA. The 58-kDa Rep tryptic polypeptide is also stabilized in the presence of nucleotides. Based on these and previous studies that showed that the 68-kDa Rep tryptic polypeptide cannot support DNA replication in a system that is dependent upon the phi X174 cis-A protein (Arai, N. & Kornberg, A. (1981) J. Biol. Chem. 256, 5294-5298), we conclude that the carboxyl-terminal end (approximately 5 kDa) of the Rep protein is not required for its helicase or ATPase activities. However, we suggest that this region of the Rep protein is important for its interactions with the phi X174 cis-A protein. Limited treatment of unliganded Helicase II protein (82 kDa) with chymotrypsin results in cleavage after Tyr254, producing a 29-kDa amino-terminal polypeptide and a 53-kDa carboxyl-terminal polypeptide, which remain associated under nondenaturing conditions. This chymotrypsin cleavage reduces the ssDNA binding activity and eliminates the ssDNA-dependent ATPase and helicase activities of the Helicase II protein. The binding of ATP, ADP, ATP gamma S, and/or DNA to Helicase II protein results in protection of this site (Tyr254) from cleavage by chymotrypsin. Limited treatment of Helicase II protein with trypsin results in cleavage near its carboxyl-terminal end producing two polypeptides with apparent Mr = 72,000, in a manner similar to that observed with the Rep protein; these polypeptides are also stabilized by binding ATP or single-stranded DNA.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

The yeast mitochondrial outer membrane contains a major 70 kd protein with an amino-terminal hydrophobic membrane anchor and a hydrophilic 60 kd domain exposed to the cytosol. We now show that this protein (which we term MAS70) accelerates the mitochondrial import of many (but not all) precursor proteins. Anti-MAS70 IgGs or removal of MAS70 from the mitochondria by either mild trypsin treatment or by disrupting the nuclear MAS70 gene inhibits import of the F1-ATPase beta-subunit, the ADP/ATP translocator, and of several other precursors into isolated mitochondria by up to 75%, but has little effect on the import of porin. Intact cells of a mas70 null mutant import the F1-ATPase alpha-subunit and beta-subunits, cytochrome c1 and other precursors at least several fold more slowly than wild-type cells. Removal of MAS70 from wild-type mitochondria inhibits binding of the ADP/ATP translocator to the mitochondrial surface, indicating that MAS70 mediates one of the earliest import steps. Several precursors are thus imported by a pathway in which MAS70 functions as a receptor-like component. MAS70 is not essential for import of these precursors, but only accelerates this process.

Limited proteolysis of rabbit skeletal-muscle AMP deaminase (AMP aminohydrolase, EC 3.5.4.6) with trypsin results in conversion of the enzyme into a species which over the pH range 6.5-7.1 exhibits hyperbolic kinetics at low K+ concentration even in the absence of ADP, but shows a 20% decrease in activity at saturating substrate concentration. Analysis by sedimentation-equilibrium techniques reveals the proteolysed enzyme to be homogeneous and to have a molecular mass of 222,000 Da, indicative of a trimeric structure with a subunit molecular mass of 72,000 Da, in contrast with the tetrameric structure of the native enzyme, composed of four 79,000-Da subunits. These observations suggest a role of the 7,000-Da fragment which is removed by proteolysis in the maintenance of the three-dimensional structure of the subunit that causes the enzyme at low K+ concentration to show homotropic positive co-operativity. Study of the influence of pH, isolated from that of K+, on the kinetics of AMP deaminase reveals a highly pH-dependent inhibitory effect by ATP which is completely absent at acid pH values and abruptly manifests itself just above neutrality. This phenomenon may have significance in the metabolism of exercising muscle, in connection with the pH-dependent interaction of AMP deaminase with the thick filament.

The domain structure of transcription termination factor rho was analyzed by partial trypsin cleavage and by photoaffinity labeling with ATP and oligo(C)5. A rho subunit consists of three distinct domains of nearly equal size that are connected by trypsin-sensitive linker segments. The amino-terminal domain binds to oligo(C)5 and has sequence segments with extended similarity to conserved elements in other RNA-binding proteins and a segment that has identities with another known cytidine nucleotide-binding protein. The middle domain has the ATP-binding site and has most of the sequence segments with similarity to conserved elements in other nucleoside triphosphate-binding proteins. The function of the third domain, the carboxyl-terminal domain, has not been identified. Both the amino- and carboxyl-terminal domains are relatively resistant to further trypsin treatment. The ATP-binding domain is also relatively resistant when it is linked to the amino-terminal, RNA-binding domain, but has not been detected as a separate digestion product. This result plus the finding that ADP and ATP inhibit the cleavage in the linker between the two domains indicate that those domains interact intimately in spite of their functional distinctions.

The accessibility of three amino acids of EF-2, located within highly conserved regions near the N- and C-terminal extremities of the molecule (the E region and the ADPR region, respectively) to modifying enzymes has been compared within nucleotide-complexed EF-2 and ribosomal complexes that mimic the pre- and posttranslocational ones: the high-affinity complex (EF-2)-nonhydrolysable GTP analog GuoPP[CH2]P ribosome and the low-affinity (EF-2)-GDP-ribosome complex, EF-2 and ribosomes being from rat liver. We studied the reactivity of two highly conserved residues diphthamide-715 and Arg-66, to diphtheria-toxin-dependent ADP-ribosylation and trypsin attack, and of a threonine that probably lies between residues 51 and 60, to phosphorylation by a Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase. Diphthamide 715 and this threonine residue were unreactive within the high-affinity complex but seemed fully reactive in the low-affinity complex. Arg-66 was resistant to trypsin in both complexes. The possible involvement of the E and ADPR regions of EF-2 in the interaction with ribosome in the two complexes is discussed.

The effect of platelet release products on cytosolic calcium [( Ca++]i) was examined by monitoring the fluorescence of chick embryonic heart cells loaded with the fluorescent calcium indicator indo-1 AM. Cell free filtrate of platelet release products was obtained from rabbit platelets activated with thrombin or collagen. This filtrate caused a rapid increase in both systolic and diastolic [Ca++]i in a dose-dependent manner. The effect was not blocked by pretreating the platelets with aspirin or a thromboxane synthetase inhibitor. It was not mimicked by a thromboxane analog, or by several substances known to be released from platelets including ADP, serotonin, or platelet activating factor. Apyrase or ATP-gamma S had no effect on the activity. The responsible product was heat-sensitive, trypsin-sensitive, and partitioned into the aqueous phase of a chloroform suspension. It has a low molecular weight (less than 3kD) and is sensitive to 2-mercaptoethanol. Protease inhibitor appears to prolong the activity. These results suggest that trypsin-sensitive peptide(s) released from activated platelets can increase [Ca++]i in cardiac cells.

We have recently purified two proteins, alpha 39 and alpha 41, from bovine cerebral cortex which are substrates for ADP-ribosylation by pertussis toxin (Neer, E. J., Lok, J. M., and Wolf, L. G. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 14222-14229). Both proteins bind guanine nucleotides and interact with beta.gamma units. We have used limited proteolysis by trypsin to probe the structure and the conformational states of these proteins. The guanosine 5'-O-(thiotriphosphate) (GTP gamma S)-liganded alpha 41 protein is cleaved into stable 39- and 24/25-kDa products which appear at the same rate. In addition, an 18-kDa peptide is seen. These products are also formed from GDP- or GTP-liganded alpha 41 but are less stable. Cleavage of alpha 39 is different. With GTP gamma S stable 37-kDa product predominates while with GTP or GDP the 37-kDa fragment appears transiently, followed by 24/25-kDa fragments which are stable in the presence of guanine nucleotides but rapidly cleaved without ligand. A 17-kDa peptide is also formed with GTP or GDP. The beta.gamma unit is cleaved by trypsin to stable peptides, a 26/27-kDa doublet and a 14-kDa peptide. Addition of beta.gamma slows tryptic cleavage of alpha 41 but not alpha 39. ADP-ribosylation of alpha 39 and alpha 41 by pertussis toxin affects their conformation in distinct ways which are clearly brought out by the GTP-liganded state. In contrast to unmodified alpha 41, ADP-ribosylated and GTP-liganded alpha 41 is proteolyzed very slowly and without formation of a 39-kDa intermediate. GTP gamma S seems to override the effect of ADP-ribosylation so that cleavage is more rapid and goes via the 39-kDa product. ADP-ribosylation affects alpha 39 more subtly. The GTP-liganded protein is first cleaved to the 37-kDa product and then degraded without forming the 24/25-kDa fragment. These results suggest that ADP-ribosylation might affect the conformation and function of these related proteins differently. The site of [32P]ADP-ribosylation is on the 18-kDa product of alpha 41 and on the 17-kDa product of alpha 39. We have raised polyclonal antibodies against alpha 39 and beta in rabbits and used the antibodies to examine antigenic sites on alpha 39 and beta. The antigenic determinants of alpha 39 are located over most of the native tryptic peptides. Tryptic cleavage of alpha 41 leads to rapid loss of cross-reactivity with anti-alpha 39 antibody.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
