The UV absorption difference spectrum of heavy meromyosin induced by ATP was measured at various temperatures. At higher temperatures, the difference spectrum formed rapidly after adding ATP and continued steadily during the steady state which we have called the ATP-form of difference spectrum. At lower temperatures, the ATP-form of difference spectrum decayed into the other form before the steady state was attained. This was identical to the difference spectrum obtained by adding ADP and has been called the ADP-form of difference spectrum. At intermediate temperatures, biphasic decay was observed. The results indicate that the dominant intermediate at the steady state is altered from the one showing the ATP-form of difference spectrum at higher temperatures to that showing the ADP-form at lower temperatures. The population of the two intermediates depends on the temperature between the two extremes. This temperature-induced transition was observed in the presence of any divalent cation such as Mg2+, Mn2+, or Ca2+. A similar transition was observed with the difference spectrum induced by ITP in the presence of MgCl2. The pH dependence of the single early decay of the ATP-induced difference spectrum was measured in the presence of MnCl2 at 1 degree. The apparent rate constant of the decay showed a biphasic pH dependence, having the same shape as the pH activity curve of ATPase [EC 3.6.1.3] observed at higher temperatures. The rate determining step for the steady state ATPase at higher temperatures is thought to be the step of changing from the intermediate complex showing the ATP-form of difference spectrum to that showing the ADP-form. This is inconsistent with our previous mechanism (Yazawa, M. et al. (1973) J. Biochem. 74, 1107-1117). The rate determining step at lower temperatures was assigned as a step of ADP dissociation.

The HCO-3-stimulated Mg2+ -ATPase activity in red cell ghost fragments was investigated. Increasing the HCO-3 concentration in the incubation medium resulted in increased ATPase activity. NaHCO3 appeared to be more effective than KHCO3 in this regard. The ATPase activities were slightly stimulated by increases in ionic strength and utilized ITP almost as readily as ATP. A Mg/ATP ratio of 1.0 and a pH of 7.6 yielded maximum activity. These properties are of interest since the present enzyme is the only unquestionable instance where a HCO-3 ATPase is located in the surface membrane of a cell.

1. Isolated outer membranes from rat spleen mitochondria can be stored in liquid N(2) for several weeks without significant loss of ATPase (adenosine triphosphatase) activity. 2. The ATPase reaction has a broad pH optimum centering on neutral pH, with little significant activity above pH9.0 or below pH5.5. 3. A sigmoidal response of the ATPase activity to temperature is observed between 0 and 55 degrees C, with complete inactivation at 60 degrees C. The Arrhenius plot shows that the activation energy above the transition temperature (22 degrees C) (E(a)=144kJ/mol) is one-third of that calculated for below the transition temperature (E'(a)=408kJ/mol). 4. The outer-membrane ATPase (K(m) for MgATP=50mum) is inactive unless Mg(2+) is added, whereas the inner-membrane ATPase (K(m) for ATP=11mum) is active without added Mg(2+) unless the mitochondria have been depleted of all endogenous Mg(2+) (by using ionophore A23187). 5. The substrate for the outer-membrane ATPase is a bivalent metal ion-nucleoside triphosphate complex in which Mg(2+) (K(m)=50mum) can be replaced effectively by Ca(2+) (K(m)=6.7mum) or Mn(2+), and ATP by ITP. Cu(2+), Co(2+), Sr(2+), Ba(2+), Ni(2+), Cd(2+) and Zn(2+) support very little ATP hydrolysis. 6. Univalent metal ions (Na(+), K(+), Rb(+), Cs(+) and NH(4) (+), but not Li(+)) stimulate the MgATPase activity (<10%) at low concentrations (50mm), but, except for K(+), are slightly inhibitory (20-30%) at higher concentrations (500mm). 7. The Mg(2+)-stimulated ATPase activity is significantly inhibited by Cu(2+) (K(i)=90mum), Ni(2+) (K(i)=510mum), Zn(2+) (K(i)=680mum) and Co(2+) (K(i)=1020mum), but not by Mg(2+), Ca(2+), Ba(2+) or Sr(2+). 8. The outer-membrane ATPase is insensitive to the inhibitors oligomycin, NN'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, NaN(3), ouabain and thiol-specific reagents. A significant inhibition is observed at high concentrations of AgNO(3) (0.5mm) and NaF (10mm). 9. The activity towards MgATP is competitively inhibited by the product MgADP (K(i)=0.7mm) but not by the second product P(i) or by 5'-AMP.

ATPase was detected in the membranes of a motile Streptococcus. Maximal enzymic activity was observed at pH 8 and ATP/Mg2+ ratio of 2. Mn2+ and Ca2+ could replace Mg2+ to some extent. Besides ATP, GTP and ITP were substrates. The enzyme was inhibited by N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide but not by sodium azide, uncouplers or bathophenanthroline. An electrochemical gradient of protons, which was artificially imposed across the membranes of Streptococcus cells by manipulation of either the K+ diffusion potential or the transmembrane pH gradient, led to ATP synthesis. ATP synthesis was abolished by proton conductors, an inhibitor of the ATPase or an increase in the extracellular K+ concentration. A comparison between the phosphate potential and the electrochemical proton gradient showed that the data found are in agreement with a stoichiometry of 2 protons translocated per molecule ATP synthesized.

1. Plasma membrane preparations have been isolated from spheroplasts of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, strain R XII, via lysis and subsequent differential centrifugation. These preparations are almost devoid of mitochondrial contamination. 2. The plasma membrane ATPase is fairly stable when refrigerated, but loses activity at 8 degrees C and above. Below pH 5.6 the ATPase is irreversibly inactivated. The enzyme also splits GTP and ITP, although to a lesser extent. 3. Mg2+-ions are essential as part of the reactive substrate, MgATP, and furthermore they activate the ATPase. Optimal conditions depend on substrate concentration. When the concentration of free Mg2+ ions exceeds about 0.1 mM, competitive inhibition occurs. 4. In the range of pH 5.6-9.2 two functional groups dissociate. One, with pKb = 8.1 +/- 0.1 participated in substrate binding and another one with pKb' = 8.1 +/- 0.1 is involved in substrate splitting. 5. The experiments with group-specific inhibitors suggest that an alpha-amino group and a sulfhydryl residue are involved in substrate binding and conversion. Furthermore, imidazole, tryptophan and carboxyl residues may be important for the catalytic process.

The rate of enzymic reaction of ATP, ITP, GTP with myosin is studied in the presence of potassiu, ammonium and calcium ions in H2O--D2O solutions. There is no kinetic isotope effect of ITPase and GTPase reaction in the neutral pH region (VHVD = 1). The value VH/VD for the ATPase reaction in the pH range from 6.5 to 8.5 with all cations studied varies from 1.05 to 1.26. Such changes of myosin enzymic activity in D2O infer that small changes in the interaction of subunits is not the decisive one in the regulation of myosin ATPase. The equality of isotope effects in potassium salts and ammonium solution suggests that a specific effect of ammonium ion as a proton donor affects the ATPase reaction of myosin. The relationship between the value of isotope effect and D2O concentration in solution in non-linear. The shape of concentration curve suggests essential conformational changes of myosin during ATP hydrolysis.

1. ATP-dependent proton translocation and ATP-dependent quenching of the fluorescence of 9-aminoacridine were measured in inside-out vesicles derived from a cytochrome-deficient mutant of Escherichia coli. 2. ATP-dependent quenching of fluorescence was inhibited by nigericin gramicidin, NH4Cl, and carbonylcyanide-m-chlorophenylhydrazone. Inhibition was also produced by the ATPase inhibitors N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodimide (DCCD) and diphenyl phosphorazidate (DPA), and by the respiratory chain inhibitors piericidin A, 2-heptyl-4-hydroxyquinoline N-oxide, and An2+. The inhibition of ATP-dependent fluorescence quenching by the ionophores, uncouplers, and respiratory chain inhibitors was not due to an effect on ATPase activity which was insensitive to these agents. 3. By use of the ATPase inhibitors DCCD and DPA, or by replacing ATP with GTP, ITP and CTP, a correlation between the ATPase activity and the rate of ATP-dependent membrane energization, as measured by fluorescence quenching, was obtained.

The membrane-bound coupling factor from Mycobacterium phlei was solubilized from membrane vesicles by washing with low ionic strength buffer or 0.25 M sucrose. The solubilized enzyme exhibited coupling factor, latent ATPase, and succinate oxidation-stimulating activity. Purification by affinity chromatography using Sepharose coupled to ADP yielded a homogeneous preparation of latent ATPase which was purified about 200-fold with an 84% yield in a single step. Purified latent ATPase exhibited coupling factor activity but no succinate oxidation-stimulating activity. The molecular weight of latent ATPase was determined to be 250,000 +/- 10,000 by Sephadex G-200 chromatography. The ATPase was unmasked by trypsin treatment and activated by Mg2+ ion. However, trypsin treatment inactivated the coupling factor activity in the purified enzyme, indicating that the catalytic sites for ATPase and coupling activity are different. Unlike mitochondrial ATPase, latent ATPase from M. phlei was not cold-labile. Of the nucleoside triphosphates, UTP, ITP, and epsilon-ATP (1-N6-ethenoadenosine triphosphate) were hydrolyzed to a lesser extent compared to ATP. Kinetic data showed that ADP acted as a competitive inhibitor of latent ATPase activity with a Ki of 5 x 10(-3) M. Uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation and respiratory inhibitors did not affect the latent ATPase activity, while sodium azide (0.1 mM) inhibited the latent ATPase activity.

Mitochondrial ATPases from rat liver and beef heart were used to study the effects of guanylylimidodiphosphate (GMP-P(NH)P) and adenylylimidodiphosphate (AMP-P(NH)P) on the kinetics of MgATP, MgITP, and MgGTP hydrolysis. AMP-P(NH)P was a noncompetitive inhibitor of hydrolysis of all substrates with the rat liver enzyme, whether activating anions were present or not. Also with the liver enzyme, AMP-P(NH)P caused only MgATP hydrolysis to appear to have positive cooperativity. With the beef heart enzyme, AMP-P(NH)P was a competitive inhibitor of ATPase activity and caused positive cooperativity; it gave noncompetitive patterns with GTP or ITP as substrates. In both enzyme systems, GMP-P(NH)P gave complex inhibition patterns with MgATP as the substrate, but was a competitive inhibitor of MgITP and MgGTP hydrolysis. These results are interpreted as indicating the existence of two types of nucleotide binding sites, with varying degrees of specificity and interaction on the ATPase molecules from both sources. It is postulated that MgATP and AMP-P(NH)P bind to regulatory site while MgATP, MgGTP, Mgitp, and GMP-P(NH)P bind to the catalytic site.

1. A further investigation has been made of the way in which the fluorescent probes 1-anilino-naphthalene-8-sulphonate and 2-(N-methyl-anilino) naphthalene-6-sulphonate report on the energised state of bovine heart submitochondrial particles. 2. A comparison of the probe responses to energisation with ATP or to a potassium diffusion potential has been made. The fluorescence enhancements seen in these two cases have different characteristics, and in view of this it is questioned whether a substrate generated energised state of a submitochondrial particle can be equated with a trans-membrane potassium diffusion potential. 3. Substitution of ITP for ATP reduces the rate at which either of the probes respond to energisation. In contrast reducing the ATPase activity of the particles by treatment with the covalent ATPase inhibitors 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzofurazan or N,N'-dicyclohexyl-carbodiimide has no effect on this rate. This finding that the rate of the fluorescence changes is directly sensitive to events at the level of the ATPase, but not to the total ATPase activity, suggests that this rate may not be controlled by a delocalised energised state. Reduction of ATPase activity decreases the extent of the fluorescence enhancement and a relationship between the change in probe fluorescence and ATPase activity is given. 4. The results in this paper are discussed in the context of the mechanisms which have been proposed to account for the fluorescence enhancements of N-aryl naphthalene sulphonate probes upon energisation of submitochondrial particles.
