The degradation of insulin in isolated liver endosomes and the relationships of this process with ATP-dependent endosomal acidification have been studied. Incubation of endosomal fractions containing 125I-insulin in isotonic KCl at 30 degrees C resulted in a rapid loss of insulin integrity as judged from trichloroacetic acid precipitability, Sephadex G-50 chromatography, immunoreactivity and receptor binding ability, with a maximum at pH 5-6 (t1/2: 10, 10, 6 and 6 min, respectively). On a log/log plot, the amount of acid-soluble products generated was linearly related to the amount of insulin associated with endosomes (slope, 0.80). Upon incubation, virtually all acid-soluble products diffused out of endosomes as judged from their solubility in aqueous poly(ethyleneglycol). In permeabilized endosomes, intact insulin was also released in part extraluminally, but only when degradation was inhibited did this release increase with lowering pH. ATP shifted the pH for maximal insulin degradation to about 7.5-8.5 and caused endosomal acidification as judged from the uptake of acridine orange and the fluorescence of internalized fluorescein-labeled dextran and galactosylated bovine serum albumin (delta pH about 0.8-0.9). GTP, ITP and UTP exerted comparable effects but with lower potencies. The ability of ATP to alter the pH dependence of insulin degradation was maximal in the presence of Cl-, other anions being less effective (Br- greater than gluconate = SO4(2-) greater than NO3- = sucrose = mannitol) and/or inhibitory (NO3-). Na+, K+ and Li+ supported more effectively ATP-dependent insulin degradation than did choline. Divalent cations were required for the ATP effect (Mg2+ = Mn2+ greater than Co2+ greater than Ni2+ = Zn2 greater than Ca2+). Little or no effects of ATP occurred in the presence of proton ionophores such as monensin and carbonyl cyanide chlorophenylhydrazone, and inhibitors of the proton ATPase such as N-ethylmaleimide. The abilities of nucleotides, ions and inhibitors to support or inhibit ATP-dependent insulin degradation were well correlated with their abilities to affect ATP-dependent acidification. The acidotropic agents chloroquine and quinacrine caused a leftward shift in the pH dependence of insulin degradation and a decrease in maximal degradation; in the presence of ATP, chloroquine almost completely inhibited degradation at pH 5-9. It is concluded that ATP-dependent acidification, in part by enhancing the dissociation of the insulin-receptor complex, is required for optimum degradation of insulin within liver endosomes.

The effects of the three hydrophobic molecules triphenylphosphine, trifluoperazine and 3-nitrophenol on Ca2+ uptake and ATPase activity in sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles was investigated. When ATP was the substrate, triphenylphosphine (3 microM) increased the amount of Ca2+ accumulated by the vesicles. At high concentrations triphenylphosphine inhibited Ca2+ uptake. This effect varied depending on the ATP concentration and the type of nucleotide used. With ITP there was only inhibition and no activation of Ca2+ uptake by triphenylphosphine. On the other hand, trifluoperazine inhibited Ca2+ accumulation regardless of whether ATP or ITP was used as substrate. When 5 mM oxalate was included in the medium in order to avoid binding of Ca2+ to the low-affinity Ca2(+)-binding sites of the enzyme, both stimulation by triphenylphosphine and inhibition by trifluoperazine were reduced. In leaky vesicles at low Ca2+ concentrations, triphenylphosphine and 3-nitrophenol were competitive inhibitors of ATPase activity at the regulatory site of the enzyme (0.1-1 mM ATP). A striking difference was observed when both the high- and low-affinity Ca2(+)-binding sites were saturated. In this condition, triphenylphosphine and 3-nitrophenol promoted a 3-4-fold increase in the apparent affinity for ATP at its regulatory site.

Vacuolar H(+)-ATPase was isolated from highly purified bovine kidney brush border, using a previously described immunoaffinity method. The affinity purified enzyme had reconstitutively active ATP-induced acidification that was inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide. The brush border H(+)-ATPase had a single pH optimum of 7.3, and a single Km for ATP of 360 microM. The enzyme showed no lipid activation; it had a substrate preference of ATP greater than ITP greater than UTP greater than GTP much greater than CTP, with an ATP:GTP selectivity of 1.69. The brush border H(+)-ATPase required no monovalent anion or cation for activity and was inhibited by the oxyanions NO3(-1) much greater than SO4(-2); sulfite stimulated activity at low concentrations and inhibited at higher concentrations. The inhibition produced by nitrate could not be attributed to dissociation of subunits from the enzyme. The divalent or trivalent cation preference was Mn+2 much greater than Mg+2 much greater than Co+2 greater than Al+3 greater than Ca+2 much greater than Ba+2,Sr+2; 1 mM Zn+2 inhibited the enzyme completely, but Cu+2 inhibited only 49% of activity at concentrations up to 5 mM. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels of the brush border H(+)-ATPase showed subunits at Mr 70,000, a doublet at 56,000, 45,000, 42,000, 38,000, 33,000, 31,000, 15,000, 14,000, and 12,000. On two-dimensional gels, the pl value for the Mr 70,000 subunit was 6.3, for the Mr 56,000 was 6.4, and for the Mr 31,000 was 7.5-8.5, and microheterogeneity was observed in the Mr 56,000 and 31,000 subunits. A comparison of kidney cortex brush border H(+)-ATPase with kidney cortex microsomal H(+)-ATPase revealed differences in pH optimum, Km for ATP, lipid dependence, substrate preference, divalent ion preference, copper sensitivity, and in microheterogeneity of the Mr 56,000 and 31,000 subunits, providing evidence that different functional and structural classes of vacuolar H(+)-ATPase are segregated to specific membrane compartments.

A conformational transition between E2 and E1 forms of Na, K-ATPase induced by different nucleotides has been studied under steady state conditions using the enzyme labelled with 5-iodoacetamidofluorescein. In the presence of K+ the plot of fluorescence as a function of [ATP], [ADP] or [CTP] (in a range of 5 microM-12 mM) is a biphasic one. A similar dependence for AMP, ITP, GTP and UTP demonstrates a hyperbolic behaviour. The data suggest that the shift in the equilibrium between E2 and E1 forms of Na,K-ATPase towards the E1 conformation is induced by ATP binding both with high and low affinity sites. Two structural features of ATP are apparently important for its interaction with more than one type of ATP binding sites or for providing for E2-E1 transition induced by this interaction: (i) beta-phosphate group in the terminal part of the molecule, (ii) unprotonated N1 and/or NH2-group in the 6th position of the purine base.

A well-characterized chicken osteoclast plasma membrane vesicle preparation manifested Mg2(+)-dependent ATP hydrolyzing activity of 0.213 mumol inorganic phosphate released per mg protein per minute (n = 7). The Mg2+ dependence showed a high-affinity component with a KMg of 1.293 microM and Vmax of 0.063 mumol Pi per mg protein per minute, and a low-affinity component with a KMg of 297.6 microM and a Vmax of 0.232 mumol Pi per mg protein per minute. The Mg2(+)-ATPase activity was inhibited by N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD, 0.2 mM, 50.7%), N-ethylmaleimide (0.5 mM, 34.6%), nolinium bromide (1 mM, 29.9%), 4,4'-diisothiocyano-2,2'-stilbene sulfonic acid (DIDS, 1 mM, 45.1%), and p-chloromercuribenzoic acid (PCMB, 0.1 mM, 33.8%). Sodium orthovanadate (Na3 VO4) at 1 microM had no effect but caused 29.5% inhibition at 1 mM. Na+ could substitute for K+ without loss of activity, NO3- caused 19.5% inhibition when substituted for Cl-, and acetate replacement of Cl- resulted in 36.4% stimulation of Mg2(+)-ATPase. ATP, GTP, ITP, CTP, and ADP were all hydrolyzed effectively. DCCD (0.2 mM), NEM (0.5 mM), nolinium bromide (1 mM), and DIDS (50 microM) almost completely abolished proton transport as measured spectrofluorometrically by acridine orange quenching. Na3 VO4 (1 mM) had no effect, and duramycin (80 micrograms/ml) inhibited transport 52.7%. K+ replacement of Na+ caused a 79.2% increase in initial proton transport rate. NO3- and acetate substitution of Cl- resulted in a 46.1 and 55.7% decrease in transport, respectively. ATP supports transport far more effectively than the other nucleotides tested. ADP was ineffective. Experiments using the potassium ionophore, valinomycin, indicated that the proton pump functions electrogenically, with Cl- most likely cotransported by an anion transporter. The proton pump also seems to have at least one anion-sensitive site, elucidated by experiments in the presence of NO3- and Cl-.

Evidence is presented for the existence of ectoenzymes in rat renal cortical brush-border membrane vesicles that produce adenosine as a final product using either ATP, ADP or AMP as substrate. The enzymes are insensitive to levamisole, ouabain, oligomycin and N-ethylmaleimide, and have absolute requirement for divalent cations with following order of activation Mg2+ greater than Ca2+ greater than Mn2+ greater than Ba2+ greater than Zn2+. At least two separate enzymes can be distinguished. One is capable of hydrolyzing ATP, other nucleoside triphosphates and ADP, but not AMP. The enzyme is insensitive to concanavalin A. The other enzyme hydrolyzes AMP and is strongly inhibited by this lectin. Mg2(+)-stimulated ATP hydrolysis displays saturation kinetics which is not of the simple Michaelis-Menten type, but is biphasic with a high-affinity (K'm = 0.16 mM) and low-affinity site (K'm = 9.0 mM), respectively. The low-affinity site hydrolyzes ATP, ITP and GTP to a similar extent, whereas CTP and UTP with about 40% lower rate. The high-affinity site splits ATP much better than other nucleoside triphosphates. Hydrolysis of ADP follows simple Michaelis-Menten saturation kinetic with apparent Km = 0.38 +/- 0.06 mM. Inhibition, activation and substrate specificity studies indicate that nucleoside triphosphatase and nucleoside diphosphatase may reside on the same protein. Kinetics of the AMP hydrolysis is hyperbolic with apparent Km = 76 +/- 9 microM. The cascade of ectonucleotidases in the brush-border membrane of the proximal tubule may catalyze the degradation of filtered nucleotides into adenosine and phosphate, the compounds which are thereafter probably reabsorbed by separate transport systems.

The characteristics of the H+ pump in isolated rat renal endocytotic vesicles were studied by the delta pH-sensitive dye acridine orange, the voltage-sensitive dye 3,3'-dipropylthiadicarbocyanine iodide, and by a coupled optical ATPase assay. Intravesicular acidification depended on ATP and Mg2+ concentrations with half-maximal activations at 73 and 77 microM, respectively. CTP, GTP, UTP, and ITP partially supported acidification, but ADP and AMP did not. Ouabain, ethoxzolamide, levamisole, and vanadate did not inhibit H+ uptake into endocytotic vesicles. Oligomycin inhibited partially. Depending on concentration and preincubation time, Dio-9, filipin, N-ethylmaleimide (NEM), and dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD) inhibited H+ uptake completely. Filipin and, partially, DCCD acted nonspecifically by dissipating pH gradients. A specific cation was not required for the H+ pump; Zn2+ inhibited. Compared with mannitol, ATP-driven H+ uptake was stimulated by SCN- greater than Cl- greater than Br- greater than I- much greater than HPO4(2-) = gluconate = HCO3- = F-, but not by SO4(2-), NO3-, CH3COO-, S2O3(2-), and S4O6(2-). Chloride stimulated H+ uptake from the outside of the vesicles with an apparent Km of 27 mM. In the absence of Cl-, ATP-driven proton uptake was increased by intravesicular K+ and valinomycin, suggesting that the pump is electrogenic. The electrogenicity, however, could not be demonstrated with voltage-sensitive dyes. The vesicle membrane contains no significant K+ and Cl- conductances; only a conductance for H+ was found. The vesicles exhibited an ouabain-, oligomycin-, and vanadate-insensitive ATPase activity that was inhibited by DCCD and NEM. Our data indicate the presence of an electrogenic H+ pump in endocytotic vesicles from rat renal proximal tubules with similar characteristics as H+ pumps present in various intracellular (nonmitochondrial) membranes.

The ability of ATP, CTP, ITP, GTP, UTP and two synthetic ATP analogs to provide for ouabain-sensitive Na+ accumulation into proteoliposomes with a reconstituted Na+,K+-ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.37) was investigated. A correlation between the proton-accepting properties of the nucleotides and their ability to provide for active transport was found. The proton-accepting properties of the substrate seem to be a necessary condition for the shift from the K-form of Na+,K+-ATPase--an immutable step in the active translocation of Na+ and K+ through the Na+ pump.

The release of Ca2+ from vesicles of heavy sarcoplasmic reticulum after its accumulation due to hydrolysis of ATP, GTP, CTP, UTP or ITP has been studied using Antipyrylazo III, a metal-chromic Ca-indicator. All the studied substrates of the Ca-pump provide Ca2+ accumulation inside the heavy sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles, the spontaneous Ca2+ outflux rate being different for different nucleoside triphosphates. It is only ATP that provides Ca-(caffeine)-induced Ca2+ release, however AMP, ADP, beta, gamma-methylene-ATP induce Ca2+ ejection in the presence of nonadenylic nucleotides. The ruthenium red (10(-7M) inhibits the induced ejection of Ca2+ from vesicles of the heavy sarcoplasmic reticulum, but does not prevent the spontaneous release of Ca2+ in the same concentrations. A conclusion is drawn that besides Ca-channels sensitive to Ca2+ and caffeine in the presence of ATP (or to AMP, ADP, beta, gamma-methylene-ATP in the presence of nonadenylic nucleotides) and possessing high sensitivity to the ruthenium red there is another pathway for Ca2+ in the heavy reticulum membranes along which its spontaneous release occurs after the substrate exhaustion. It is supposed that this release is provided by the presence of the Ca-ATPase protein.

The ability of mutagens to transform benign papillomas to malignancy in the mouse skin model of multistage carcinogenesis [Hennings et al. Nature 303, 67-68 (1983)] suggests that multiple events may underlie carcinogenic progression, and that mutagenic exposures separated by time can act synergistically. Such synergism may result from initial mutagenic exposure which induces heritable sensitivity to subsequent mutagenic exposures. For example, progeny of X-irradiated V79 cells are hypersensitive to subsequent mutation induced by psoralen plus long-wave ultraviolet light, PUVA [Frank and Williams, Science 216, 307-308 (1982)]. In the present studies 100 to 200 surviving clones of short-wave ultraviolet light (UVC) irradiated V79 cells were assayed for mutation at two loci. Cultures derived from these cells were found to be hypermutable at the hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyl transferase (HGPRT) locus following exposure to PUVA, but showed mutant frequencies similar to control cells following UVC challenge at the HGPRT and ATPase loci.
