The inhibitory effect of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD) on the activity of the adenosine-triphosphatase of Escherichia coli (ECF1) has been examined in detail. DCCD reacted with ECF1 predominantly in beta subunits with a maximum of 2 mol of reagent per mole of ECF1 being incorporated in these subunits. Ninety-five percent inhibition of steady-state or multistate ATPase activity required incorporation of 1 mol of DCCD per mole of enzyme into beta subunits. Seventy-five percent inhibition of the initial rate of unisite catalysis was only obtained after incorporation of 2 mol of DCCD per mole of ECF1 into beta subunits. Analyses of the kinetics of unisite catalysis and nucleotide binding experiments both indicate that DCCD binds outside the substrate ATP binding site. Inhibition by this reagent appears to be due in part to an effect on the catalytic sites but mainly to the blocking of cooperativity between these sites.

When the heat-activated chloroplast F1 ATPase hydrolyzes [3H, gamma-32P]ATP, followed by the removal of medium ATP, ADP, and Pi, the enzyme has labeled ATP, ADP, and Pi bound to it in about equal amounts. The total of the bound [3H]ADP and [3H]ATP approaches 1 mol/mol of enzyme. Over a 30-min period, most of the bound [32P]Pi falls off, and the bound [3H]ATP is converted to bound [3H]ADP. Enzyme with such remaining tightly bound ADP will form bound ATP from relatively high concentrations of medium Pi with either Mg2+ or Ca2+ present. The tightly bound ADP is thus at a site that retains a catalytic capacity for slow single-site ATP hydrolysis (or synthesis) and is likely the site that participates in cooperative rapid net ATP hydrolysis. During hydrolysis of 50 microM [3H]ATP in the presence of either Mg2+ or Ca2+, the enzyme has a steady-state level of about one bound [3H]ADP per mole of enzyme. Because bound [3H]ATP is also present, the [3H]ADP is regarded as being present on two cooperating catalytic sites. The formation and levels of bound ATP, ADP, and Pi show that reversal of bound ATP hydrolysis can occur with either Ca2+ or Mg2+ present. They do not reveal why no phosphate oxygen exchange accompanies cleavage of low ATP concentrations with Ca2+ in contrast to Mg2+ with the heat-activated enzyme. Phosphate oxygen exchange does occur with either Mg2+ or Ca2+ present when low ATP concentrations are hydrolyzed with the octyl glucoside activated ATPase. Ligand binding properties of Ca2+ at the catalytic site rather than lack of reversible cleavage of bound ATP may underlie lack of oxygen exchange under some conditions.

F1-ATPase of rat liver was examined for its capacity to interact with both metal ions and nucleotides and for the effect of covalent ATPase inhibitors on these interactions. As isolated, rat liver F1 contains about 2 mol of Mg2+/mol of F1, 1 mol of which can be removed or exchanged. The remaining mole of Mg2+ per mole of F1 remains very tightly associated with F1 and is recovered in the alpha gamma fraction after cold denaturation. Rat liver F1 also contains as isolated a nearly equivalent amount of nucleotide (approximately 1.7 mol/mol of F1) which is readily removed by incubation at room temperature followed by column centrifugation. The "2 Mg2+ enzyme" binds almost 3 mol of 5'-adenylyl imidodiphosphate (AMP-PNP)/mol of F1 in the presence or absence of added divalent cation. When divalent cation is present as Co2+, an equivalent activator to Mg2+ in the ATPase reaction, 1 mol of F1 binds 3 mol of both AMP-PNP and Co2+. under these conditions, the very tight Mg2+ site remains loaded, the exchangeable Mg2+ site is replaced with AMP-PNPCo, and two additional AMP-PNPCo sites are filled. At this point, ADP can be loaded onto the enzyme as a fourth nucleotide at a site separate and distinct from the AMP-PNP sites. Significantly, rat liver F1 contains only a single readily detectable ADP binding site in the presence or absence of divalent cation.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The photolabeling of chloroplast F1 ATPase, following exposure to Mg2+ and 2-azido-ATP and separation from medium nucleotides, results in derivatization of two separate peptide regions of the beta subunit. Up to 3 mol of the analogue can be incorporated per mole of CF1, with covalent binding of one moiety or two moieties per beta subunit that can be either AMP, ADP, or ATP derivatives. These results, the demonstration of noncovalent tight binding of at least four [3H]adenine nucleotides to the enzyme and the presence of three beta subunits per enzyme, point to six potential adenine nucleotide binding sites per molecule. The tightly bound 2-azido nucleotides on CF1, found after exposure of the heat-activated and EDTA-treated enzyme to Mg2+ and 2-azido-ATP, differ in their ease of replacement during subsequent hydrolysis of ATP. Some of the bound nucleotides are not readily replaced during catalytic turnover and covalently label one peptide region of the beta subunit. They are on noncatalytic sites. Other tightly bound nucleotides are readily replaced during catalytic turnover and label another peptide region of the beta subunit. They are at catalytic sites. No alpha-subunit labeling is detected upon photolysis of the bound 2-azido nucleotides. However, one or both of the sites could be at an alpha-beta-subunit interface with the 2-azido region close to the beta subunit, or both binding sites may be largely or entirely on the beta subunit.

The protein ATPase inhibitor entraps about five nucleotides in pig heart mitochondrial F1, one at least being a triphosphate [Di Pietro, A., Penin, F., Julliard, J.H., Godinot, C., & Gautheron, D.C. (1988) Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 152, 1319-1325]. The fate of these nucleotides was studied during ATP synthesis driven by NADH oxidation in reconstituted inverted submitochondrial particles. Iodinated F1, containing 0.7 mol of endogenous nucleotides/mol, was first loaded with tritiated adenine nucleotides in the presence or absence of the protein inhibitor and then reassociated with F1-depleted submitochondrial particles (ASU particles) to reconstitute an efficient NADH-driven ATP synthesis. In the absence of the protein inhibitor, 1.7 mol of labeled nucleotides remained bound per mole of reassociated F1, 0.8-0.9 mol being rapidly exchangeable against medium ADP or ATP, as measured after rapid filtration through nitrocellulose filters. In the presence of the protein inhibitor, as many as 3.25 mol of labeled nucleotides remained bound per mole of reassociated F1. Under hydrolysis conditions where ATPase activity was highly inhibited, no release of tritiated nucleotide occurred. In contrast, under ATP synthesis conditions where the protonmotive force was generated by NADH oxidation, the progressive reversal of inhibition by the protein inhibitor was correlated to a concomitant release of tritiated nucleotide. When ATP synthesis became fully active, about one nucleotide was completely exchanged whereas more than three nucleotides remained tightly bound and did not appear to be directly involved in ATP synthesis.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Reconstituted sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) vesicles have been prepared mixing fluorescein labelled SR, excess endogenous lipids and deoxycholate by a rapid dilution protocol and several freeze-thaw treatments. We have found that both the steady-state level and the polarization of fluorescein fluorescence of these reconstituted systems monotonically increase as a function of the lipid to protein ratio between 80 and 2000 (on a mole per mole basis). The magnitude of this increase is about 15%. Detergents, such as Triton X-100 and deoxycholate, when added to SR labelled vesicles below their critical micelle concentrations also induce similar changes in fluorescein fluorescence. We suggest that lipid dilution of protein in these reconstituted systems induce a decrease of the level of self-quenching by promoting dissociation of (Ca2+, Mg2+)-ATPase.

Four mechanisms for the allosteric regulation of the calcium and magnesium ion activated adenosinetriphosphatase (Ca,Mg-ATPase) of sarcoplasmic reticulum were examined. Negative cooperativity in substrate binding was not supported by 3H-labeled 5'-adenylyl methylenediphosphate (AMPPCP) binding, which was best fit by a single class of sites. Although calcium had no effect on the absence of cooperativity, it did increase the affinity of the enzyme for AMPPCP. Allosteric regulation via an effector site for AMPPCP or ATP on the same ATPase chain was eliminated by the stoichiometry of ATP and AMPPCP binding, 1 mol of site per mole of enzyme. The possibility that AMPPCP acts at an effector site was eliminated by showing that it competitively inhibits the rate of phosphoenzyme formation. Allosteric regulation of kinetics via site-site interaction in an oligomer was eliminated by showing that the inhibition of ATPase activity by fluorescein isothiocyanate is linearly dependent upon its incorporation into the sarcoplasmic reticulum. The fourth mechanism considered was stimulation of ATPase activity by the binding of ATP or AMPPCP at the active site after departure of ADP but before the departure of inorganic phosphate. This hypothesis was supported by site stoichiometry and by the observation that AMPPCP or ATP stimulates v/EP, the rate of ATP hydrolysis for a given level of phosphoenzyme. Computer simulation of this branched monomeric model could duplicate all experimental observations made with AMPPCP and ATP as allosteric regulators. The condition that the affinity of ATP binding to the enzyme be reduced when it is phosphorylated, which is required by the computer model, was confirmed experimentally.

The effects of acute and long-term changes in temperature upon catalytic and calcium regulatory function of red (slow oxidative) and white (fast glycolytic) muscle from striped bass (Morone saxatilis) were determined. Acclimation to 5 degrees C or 25 degrees C had no significant effect on catalytic function (ATPase activity) or regulatory sensitivity (Ca++-activation) of myofibrils from either muscle type. Substantial differences between red and white muscle were found in the intrinsic thermal sensitivity of maximally-activated Mg++-Ca++ myofibrillar ATPase. Arrhenius plots of myofibrillar ATPase from white muscle show one significant breakpoint at 29 degrees C, with activation energies (Ea) of 2.3 and 23.4 kcal mole-1 at temperatures above and below this transition, respectively. Arrhenius plots of myofibrillar ATPase from red muscle show two transitions occurring at 22 and 9 degrees C, with Ea of 7.6 kcal mole-1 above 22 degrees C and 18.3 kcal mole-1 between 9 and 22 degrees C. Activation energies for myofibrils from red muscle increase substantially to approximately 107.3 kcal mole-1 below the 9 degrees C breakpoint. Differences in the intrinsic thermal sensitivity of red and white muscle catalytic function are apparently due to interaction of actomyosins and calcium regulatory proteins which are specific to each muscle type. The results suggest that capacity for sustained swimming in striped bass, which is powered exclusively by red muscle, will be severely impaired at cold temperature unless compensations occur above the level of contractile proteins.

Techniques are described for using blocking agents to distinguish between enzymes which are functional monomers and oligomers. To achieve this distinction the blocking agent must react exclusively at the active site with a stoichiometry of one mole of site per mole enzyme. The effect of the blocking agent on enzymatic activity in oligomers of n = 2 and 4 are described and the optimal degree of blocking is considered for tests of enzyme activity at saturating and less than saturating substrate concentrations. For saturating concentrations and a dimer the distinction between dimer and monomer is best observed with 50 per cent of sites blocked. For a tetramer the distinction is best made at higher degrees of blockade. The use of saturating substrate concentrations is thus limited to small oligomers. If nonsaturating substrate concentrations are used and normalized double reciprocal plots of the dependence of enzyme activity on substrate concentrations are made then the distinction between monomer and oligomer can readily be made for dimers, tetramers, and higher n-mers. The principles developed to distinguished monomeric from oligomeric enzymes are applied to published data obtained with the Ca Mg-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum. Fluorescein isothiocyanate is the blocking agent. Plots of the published data support both the monomeric and tetrameric models for allosteric regulation with the preponderance of the data supporting the monomeric model.

Ca2+-ATPase molecules were labeled in intact sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) vesicles, sequentially with a donor fluorophore, fluorescein-5'-isothiocyanate (FITC), and with an acceptor fluorophore, eosin-5'-isothiocyanate (EITC), each at a mole ratio of 0.25-0.5 mol/mol of ATPase. The resonance energy transfer was determined from the effect of acceptor on the intensity and lifetime of donor fluorescence. Due to structural similarities, the two dyes compete for the same site(s) on the Ca2+-ATPase, and under optimal conditions each ATPase molecule is labeled either with donor or acceptor fluorophore, but not with both. There is only slight labeling of phospholipids and other proteins in SR, even at concentrations of FITC or EITC higher than those used in the reported experiments. Efficient energy transfer was observed from the covalently bound FITC to EITC that is assumed to reflect interaction between ATPase molecules. Protein denaturing agents (8 M urea and 4 M guanidine) or nonsolubilizing concentrations of detergents (C12E8 or lysolecithin) abolish the energy transfer. These results are consistent with earlier observations that a large portion of the Ca2+-ATPase is present in oligomeric form in the native membrane. The technique is suitable for kinetic analysis of the effect of various treatments on the monomer-oligomer equilibrium of Ca2+-ATPase. A drawback of the method is that the labeled ATPase, although it retains conformational responses, is enzymatically inactive.
