Injections with different doses (0.1, 0.25, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, and 4.0 micrograms/g) of estradiol-17 beta (E2), administered three days consecutively, showed a statistically significant increase in mitochondrial Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, cytosolic malate dehydrogenase, and cytosolic glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activities in a dose-dependent manner in the hepatopancreas of the freshwater prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) on the 4th day of treatment compared to the control values. A lower dose of 0.05 microgram/g was without any effect on these enzyme activities. A uniform increase in the Mg(2+)-ATPase activity was observed after injections with 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 micrograms/g of E2. Ergosterol, a nonsex steroid did not show any change in the malate dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activities on which this compound was tested at a 2.0 micrograms/g dose, compared to the control values. Simultaneous injection of tamoxifen (0.5 microgram/g), an antiestrogenic compound, with E2 (2 micrograms/g) caused inhibition of the E2-induced rise in mitochondrial Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase and cytosolic NADP-linked malate dehydrogenase activities. Conversely, tamoxifen (0.5 and 1.0 microgram/g) behaved as an estrogen agonist to the response (increase) of Mg(2+)-ATPase and cytosolic glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activities. Potentiation of the estrogen effect with tamoxifen (1.0 microgram/g) was observed in these enzyme activities when used simultaneously with E2 (2 micrograms/g). Use of cycloheximide (0.5 mg/liter), a protein synthesis blocker, inhibited the inhibited the E2 (2 micrograms/g)-induced increase in all the enzyme activities studied. The data show specific and prominent subcellular action of estrogen with an indication of its role in energy-dependent ion transport and metabolic activation in hepatopancreas of the freshwater prawn.

Chaperonins are essential for the folding of proteins in bacteria, mitochondria, and chloroplasts. We have functionally characterized the yeast mitochondrial chaperonins hsp60 and hsp10. In the presence of ADP, one molecule of hsp10 binds to hsp60 with an apparent Kd of 0.9 nM and a second molecule of hsp10 binds with a Kd of 24 nM. In the presence of ATP, the purified yeast chaperonins mediate the refolding of mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase. Hsp10 inhibits the ATPase activity of hsp60 by about 40%. Hsp10(P36H) is a point mutant of hsp10 that confers temperature-sensitive growth to yeast. Consistent with the in vivo phenotype, refolding of mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase in the presence of purified hsp10(P36H) and hsp60 is reduced at 25 degrees C and abolished at 30 degrees C. The affinity of hsp10(P36H) to hsp60 as well as to Escherichia coli GroEL is reduced. However, this decrease in affinity does not correlate with the functional defect, because hsp10(P36H) fully assists the GroEL-mediated refolding of malate dehydrogenase at 30 degrees C. Refolding activity, rather, correlates with the ability of hsp10(P36H) to inhibit the ATPase of GroEL but not that of hsp60. Based on our findings, we propose that the inhibition of ATP hydrolysis is mechanistically coupled to chaperonin-mediated protein folding.

The role of small heat-shock proteins in Escherichia coli is still enigmatic. We show here that the small heat-shock protein IbpB is a molecular chaperone that assists the refolding of denatured proteins in the presence of other chaperones. IbpB oligomers bind and stabilize heat-denatured malate dehydrogenase (MDH) and urea-denatured lactate dehydrogenase and thus prevent the irreversible aggregation of these proteins during stress. While IbpB-stabilized proteins alone do not refold spontaneously, they are specifically delivered to the DnaK/DnaJ/GrpE (KJE) chaperone system where they refold in a strict ATPase-dependent manner. Although GroEL/GroES (LS) chaperonins do not interact directly with IbpB-released proteins, LS accelerate the rate of KJE-mediated refolding of IbpB-released MDH, and to a lesser extent lactate dehydrogenase, by rapidly processing KJE-released early intermediates. Kinetic and gel-filtration analysis showed that denatured MDH preferentially transfers from IbpB to KJE, then from KJE to LS, and then forms a active enzyme. IbpB thus stabilizes aggregation-prone folding intermediates during stress and, as an integral part of a cooperative multichaperone network, is involved in the active refolding of stress-denatured proteins.

Two proteins belonging to the group I chaperonin family were isolated from an obligate methanotroph, Methylobacillus glycogenes. The two proteins, one a GroEL homologue (cpn60: M. glycogenes 60 kDa chaperonin) and the other a GroES homologue (cpn10: M. glycogenes 10 kDa chaperonin), composed a heteropolymeric complex in the presence of ATP. Both proteins were purified from crude extracts of M. glycogenes by anion-exchange (DEAE-Toyopearl) and gel-filtration (Sephacryl S-400) chromatography. The native molecular weights of each chaperonin protein as determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) gel-filtration were 820 000 for cpn60 and 65 000 for cpn10. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed that the subunit molecular weights of cpn60 and cpn10 were 58 000 and 10 000, respectively. Both cpn60 and cpn10 possessed amino acid sequences which were highly homologous to other group I chaperonins. M. glycogenes cpn60 displayed an ATPase activity which was inhibited in the presence of cpn10. The chaperonins also displayed an ability to interact with and facilitate the refolding of Thermus malate dehydrogenase and yeast enolase in a manner similar to that of GroEL/ES. The similarities between the Escherichia coli GroE proteins are discussed.

The purpose of this study was to compare two contrasting training models, namely high-resistance training and prolonged submaximal training on the expression of Na+-K+ ATPase and changes in the potential of pathways involved in energy production in human vastus lateralis. The high-resistance training group (VO2peak = 45.3 +/- 1.9 mL kg(-1) min(-1), mean +/- SE, n = 9) performed three sets of six to eight repetitions maximal, each of squats, leg presses and leg extensions, three times per week for 12 weeks, while the prolonged submaximal training group (VO2peak = 44.4 +/- 6.6 mL kg(-1) min(-1), n = 7) cycled 5-6 times per week for 2 h day(-1) at 68% VO2peak for 11 weeks. In the HRT group, Na+-K+ ATPase (pmol g(-1) wet wt), measured with the 3H-ouabain binding technique, showed no change from 0 (289 +/- 22) to 4 weeks (283 +/- 15), increased (P < 0.05) by 16% at 7 weeks and remained stable until 12 weeks (319 +/- 19). For prolonged submaximal training, a 22% increase (P < 0.05) was observed from 0 (278 +/- 31) until 3 weeks (339 +/- 29) with no further changes observed at either 9 weeks (345 +/- 25) or 11 weeks (359 +/- 34). In contrast to high-resistance training, where a 15% increase (P < 0.05) was observed, only in the maximal activity of phosphorylase, prolonged submaximal training resulted in increases in malate dehydrogenase, beta-hydroxyl-CoA dehydrogenase, hexokinase and phosphofructokinase. In contrast to high-resistance training which failed to result in an increase in VO2peak, prolonged submaximal training increased VO2peak by approximately 15%. Only for prolonged exercise training was a relationship observed for VO2peak and Na+-K+-ATPase (r = 0.59; P < 0.05). Correlations between VO2peak and mitochondrial enzyme activities were not significant (P > 0.05) for either training programme. It is concluded that although both training programmes stimulate an up-regulation in Na+-K+ ATPase concentration, only the prolonged submaximal training programme enhances the potential for beta-oxidation, oxidative phosphorylation and glucose phosphorylation.

To investigate the hypothesis that acclimatization to altitude would result in a downregulation in muscle Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase pump concentration, tissue samples were obtained from the vastus lateralis muscle of six volunteers (5 males and 1 female), ranging in age from 24 to 35 yr, both before and within 3 days after a 21-day expedition to the summit of Mount Denali, Alaska (6,194 m). Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, measured by the [(3)H]ouabain-binding technique, decreased by 13.8% [348 +/- 12 vs. 300 +/- 7.6 (SE) pmol/g wet wt; P < 0.05]. No changes were found in the maximal activities (mol. kg protein(-1). h(-1)) of the mitochondrial enzymes, succinic dehydrogenase (3.63 +/- 0.20 vs. 3.25 +/- 0.23), citrate synthase (4. 76 +/- 0.44 vs. 4.94 +/- 0.44), and malate dehydrogenase (12.6 +/- 1. 8 vs. 12.7 +/- 1.2). Similarly, the expedition had no effect on any of the histochemical properties examined, namely fiber-type distribution (types I, IIA, IIB, IC, IIC, IIAB), area, capillarization, and succinic dehydrogenase activity. Peak aerobic power (52.3 +/- 2.1 vs. 50.6 +/- 1.9 ml. kg(-1). min(-1)) and body mass (76.9 +/- 3.7 vs. 75.5 +/- 2.9 kg) were also unaffected. We concluded that acclimatization to altitude results in a downregulation in muscle Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase pump concentration, which occurs without changes in oxidative potential and other fiber-type histochemical properties.

We isolated a protein, P45, from the extreme halophilic archaeon Haloarcula marismortui, which displays molecular chaperone activities in vitro. P45 is a weak ATPase that assembles into a large ring-shaped oligomeric complex comprising about 10 subunits. The protein shows no significant homology to any known protein. P45 forms complexes with halophilic malate dehydrogenase during its salt-dependent denaturation/renaturation and decreases the rate of deactivation of the enzyme in an ATP-dependent manner. Compared with other halophilic proteins, the P45 complex appears to be much less dependent on salt for its various activities or stability. In vivo experiments showed that P45 accumulates when cells are exposed to a low salt environment. We suggest, therefore, that P45 could protect halophilic proteins against denaturation under conditions of cellular hyposaline stress.

The groESL locus of a protein-hypersecreting bacterium, Bacillus brevis, was cloned by PCR using primers designed based on the DNA sequence of a B. subtilis homolog. GroEL protein was purified to apparent homogeneity and its ATPase activity was characterized: it hydrolyzed ATP, CTP, and TTP in this order of reaction rate, and its specific activity for ATP was 0.1 micromole/min/mg protein. Purified GroEL forms a tetradecamer. GroEL was estimated to contain 22% alpha-helix, 24% beta-sheet, and 19% turn structures, by CD measurement. GroES protein was also highly purified to examine its chaperonin activity. GroEL protected from thermal inactivation of and showed refolding-promoting activity for malate dehydrogenase, strictly depending on the presence of ATP and GroES.

Freshwater (FW)-adapted tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus) were treated with estradiol (E(2)) for 4 days to stimulate protein synthesis and sampled at 0, 4, and 24 h after exposure to 50% seawater (SW). E(2) increased circulating vitellogenin (VTG) levels in large amounts, indicative of unusually high rates of hepatic protein synthesis. E(2) treatment prevented the recovery of plasma osmolality in 50% SW that was evident in the sham group. Plasma sodium concentration was significantly elevated with E(2) in FW, but the levels did not change in 50% SW. Gill Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity was significantly lower in the E(2) group compared with sham-injected tilapia in 50% SW. No significant differences were noted in plasma cortisol, thyroxine, triiodothyronine, or glucose concentration with E(2) in 50% SW. E(2) significantly lowered several key liver enzyme activities and also decreased gill lactate dehydrogenase and malate dehydrogenase activities over a 24-h period. Together, our results suggest that E(2) impairs ion regulation in tilapia, partially mediated by a decreased metabolic capacity in liver and gill. The decreased tissue metabolic capacity is likely due to E(2)-induced energy repartitioning processes that are geared toward VTG synthesis at the expense of other energy-demanding pathways.
