1. A series of defined peptides which span the complete sequence were produced from troponin I isolated from white skeletal muscle of the rabbit. 2. Two peptides, CF1 (residues 64-133) and CN4 (residues 96-117) inhibited the Mg2+-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase of desensitized actomyosin. This inhibition was potentiated by tropomyosin and the Mg2+-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase of desensitized actomyosin. This inhibition, unlike that of troponin I and peptides derived from it, was not potentiated by tropomyosin. 4. The most active inhibitor, peptide CN4, was 45-75% as effective as troponin I when compared on a molar basis. The inhibitory peptide, CN4, and also whole troponin I were shown by affinity chromatography to interact specifically with actin. 5. A strong interaction with troponin C was demonstrated with peptide CF2 (residues 1-47), from the N-terminal region of troponin I. Somewhat weaker interactions were shown with peptides CN5 (residues 1-21) and with the inhibitory peptide CN4. 6. The significance of these interactions for the mechanisms of action of troponin I is discussed.

The steady-state kinetics of reductant-independent ATP hydrolysis by Klebsiella pneumoniae nitrogenase at 23 degrees C at pH 7.4 were determined as a function of component protein ratio (optimal at an oxidized Fe protein/MoFe protein ratio of 3:1) and MgATP concentration (Km 400 microM). Competitive inhibition was observed for MgADP (Ki 145 microM), [beta gamma-methylene]ATP (Mgp[CH2]ppA) (Ki 115 microM), [beta gamma-monofluoromethylene]ATP (Mgp[CHF]ppA) (Ki 53 microM) and [beta gamma-difluoromethylene]ATP (Mgp[CF2]ppA) (Ki 160 microM). The tighter binding of MgADP to free oxidized Fe protein (KD less than 10 microM) than to the oxidized Fe protein-MoFe protein complex (Ki 145 microM) is proposed as the driving force that induces rate-limiting protein dissociation in the catalytic cycle of nitrogenase. The reversible nature of the reductant-independent MgATP-cleavage reaction was demonstrated by an MgADP-induced enhancement of the rate of the phosphate/water oxygen exchange reaction with 18O-labelled phosphate ion. This enhancement, like the reductant-independent ATPase reaction, only occurred with the complex formed by oxidized Fe protein and MoFe protein and not with the individual proteins. The results are discussed in terms of the mechanism of ATP hydrolysis by nitrogenase and other systems involving protein-protein interactions.

New heterobifunctional cross-linking reagents that possessed a photoactive terminus, an electrophilic terminus, and a linking arm between the two termini that had a radiolabeled, enzymatically cleavable bond were synthesized. In a model study, succinimidyl N-[N'-(4-azidobenzoyl)tyrosyl]-beta-alanate (16A) was coupled to n-butylamine (a Lys surrogate), iodinated, and cleaved with chymotrypsin in the presence of tyrosylamide to afford the desired adduct (N-(N'-(4-azidobenzoyl)-3-iodotyrosyl)tyrosinamide, thereby demonstrating the feasibility of the enzymatic cleavage. In a biochemical study, succinimidyl N-[N'-(3-azido-5-nitrobenzoyl)tyrosyl]-beta-alanate (16C) was coupled to Lys-75 of calmodulin (CaM), and the radioiodinated monoadduct was successfully photo-cross-linked, in a calcium-dependent manner, to the human erythrocyte plasma membrane Ca2+,Mg2(+)-ATPase and to a synthetic fragment (M13) containing the CaM-binding region of myosin light-chain kinase. In the latter case, densitometry readings indicated 20% cross-linking efficiency.

Three subunits, Ac115, Ac39, and the proteolipid, were positively identified in the membrane sectors of V-ATPases from different sources. We searched for organelle-specific protein in purified preparations of V-ATPase from bovine chromaffin granules. A diffused protein band at a position of about 45 kDa was identified in SDS-polyacrylamide gels of the above preparation. Following digestion with endopeptidase Glu-C (V-8), a polypeptide of about 10 kDa was isolated and subjected to amino acid sequencing. Hence, the cDNA encoding the protein Ac45 was cloned from a bovine adrenal medulla library. The cDNA sequence contains an open reading frame encoding a protein of 468 amino acids with a calculated molecular mass of 51,786 daltons. A potential signal sequence comprised of the first 35 amino acids and a potential transmembrane domain at the C terminus of the protein were identified. There exist seven potential glycosylation sites between the aforementioned protein motifs. Experiments with a specific antibody against Ac45 demonstrated that it is copurifying with the V-ATPase from chromaffin granules. Immunological cross-reactivity was observed with purified V-ATPase from bovine kidney microsomes but not from plasma membranes of epithelial cells. Cell-free expression of the protein from synthetic mRNA produced a single protein band at about 50 kDa on SDS gels. Upon inclusion of dog pancreas microsomes in the reaction mixture, a slow migrating band sensitive to peptide:N-glycosidase F was observed.

DNA comprising 219 447 bp was sequenced in nine cosmids and verified at > 99.9% precision. Of the standard repetitive elements, 187 Alus make up 20.6% of the sequence, but there were only 27 MERs (2.9%) and 17 L1 fragments (1.6%). This may be characteristic of such high GC (57%) regions. The sequence also includes an 11.3 kb tract duplicated with 99.2% identity at a distance of 38 kb. The region is 80-90% transcribed and 12.5% translated. Thirteen known genes and their exon-intron borders are all accurately predicted at least in part by GRAIL programs, as are six additional genes. From centromere to telomere, the orientation of transcription varies among the first eight genes, then runs centromeric to telomeric for the next five, and is in the opposite sense for the last six. Eighteen of the 19 genes are associated with CpG islands. Two islands are exact copies in the 11.3 kb repeat units, and could thus give rise to double dosage levels of an X-linked gene. Another island is associated with two genes transcribed in opposite directions. From the sequence data, three genes and their exon structure are inferred. One of them, previously associated with HEX2, is shown to be a different gene unrelated to hexokinases; a second gene, previously known by an EST, is plexin, from its 65.5% identity with the Xenopus analog; and a third is a subunit of a vacuolar H-ATPase, and is named VATPS1.

Glycoprotein IV of bovine adrenal chromaffin granule membranes was purified by membrane fractionation with Triton X-114 and lectin affinity chromatography. An antiserum raised against this protein recognized the same component as one directed against subunit Ac45 of the proton-translocating adenosine triphosphatase in the granule membrane. Amino acid sequencing confirmed that glycoprotein IV and Ac45 are identical proteins, and also showed that they are derived from a larger precursor by removal of a 246-amino acid N-terminal sequence. Enzymatic deglycosylation indicated an apparent polypeptide molecular mass of 29 kDa for the mature Ac45/glycoprotein IV. Blue Native electrophoresis confirmed that this protein is a component of the membrane sector of the V-ATPase.

Ac45 is a type I transmembrane protein associated with vacuolar H+-ATPase, a proton pump mediating the acidification of multiple intracellular organelles. In this study, we examined the intracellular routing of Ac45 in transfected CV-1 fibroblasts. Steady state immunolabeling showed that Ac45 is located on the plasma membrane and in a vacuolar compartment in the juxtanuclear region. Antibody internalization experiments revealed that Ac45 is rapidly retrieved from the cell surface and is targeted to the vacuolar structures. The 26-residue cytoplasmic tail of Ac45 was intrinsically capable of mediating endocytosis of the cell surface protein Tac, indicating that the tail contains an autonomous internalization signal. Immunolocalization studies on cells expressing carboxy-terminally truncated Ac45 mutants showed the presence of essential routing information in the membrane-distal region of the cytoplasmic tail. Further mutational analysis of this region, which lacks the recognized tyrosine- or di-leucine-based sorting motifs, suggested that multiple sites rather than a short linear sequence are responsible for the internalization. Collectively, our results indicate that the cytoplasmic tail of Ac45 contains autonomous targeting information distinct from previously described routing determinants.

Vacuolar H+-ATPases (V-ATPases) mediate the acidification of multiple intracellular compartments, including secretory granules in which an acidic milieu is necessary for prohormone processing. A search for genes coordinately expressed with the prohormone proopiomelanocortin (POMC) in the melanotrope cells of Xenopus intermediate pituitary led to the isolation of a cDNA encoding the complete amino-acid sequence of the type I transmembrane V-ATPase accessory subunit Ac45 (predicted size 48 kDa). Comparison of Xenopus and mammalian Ac45 sequences revealed conserved regions in the protein that may be of functional importance. Western blot analysis showed that immunoreactive Ac45 represents a approximately 40-kDa product that is expressed predominantly in neuroendocrine tissues; deglycosylation resulted in a approximately 27-kDa immunoreactive Ac45 product which is smaller than predicted for the intact protein. Biosynthetic studies revealed that newly synthesized Xenopus Ac45 is an N-glycosylated protein of approximately 60 kDa; the nonglycosylated, newly synthesized form is approximately 46 kDa which is similar to the predicted size. Immunocytochemical analysis showed that in Xenopus pituitary, Ac45 is highly expressed in the biosynthetically active melanotrope cells. We conclude that the regionally conserved Xenopus Ac45 protein is synthesized as an N-glycosylated approximately 60-kDa precursor that is intracellularly cleaved to an approximately 40-kDa product and speculate that it may assist in the V-ATPase-mediated acidification of neuroendocrine secretory granules.

Rett syndrome (RTT) is an X-linked dominant neurodevelopmental disorder that affects females. Exclusion mapping studies using a new family with maternal inheritance of RTT defined Xq28 as the candidate region for the RTT gene. Six candidate genes were selected for mutation analysis based on their established expression patterns and known functions in the CNS. These are: Glutamate receptor subunit 3 (GLUR3), GABA receptor subunit alpha 3 (GABRA3), GABA receptor subunit e1 (GABRE1), Vacuolar ATPase subunit 1 (VATPS1, XAP3), the human homologue of plexin 3-SEX (XAP6) and the Synaptobrevin-like protein (SYBL1). Major rearrangements involving these genes were excluded by Southern analysis. No disease-causing mutations were found, but several single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were detected. These SNPs will be useful in future linkage analysis and whole-genome association studies for other diseases. The genomic characterization of GLUR3 and GABRA3 will allow mutational analysis of these genes as candidates for other X-linked neurological disorders mapping to Xq25-Xq26 and Xq28.

The vacuolar H+-ATPase (V-ATPase) is a multimeric enzyme complex that acidifies organelles of the vacuolar system in eukaryotic cells. Proteins that interact with the V-ATPase may play an important role in controlling the intracellular localization and activity of the proton pump. The neuroendocrine-enriched V-ATPase accessory subunit Ac45 may represent such a protein as it has been shown to interact with the membrane sector of the V-ATPase in only a subset of organelles. Here, we examined the fate of newly synthesized Ac45 in the secretory pathway of a neuroendocrine cell. A major portion of intact approximately 46-kDa Ac45 was found to be N-linked glycosylated to approximately 62 kDa and a minor fraction to approximately 64 kDa. Trimming of the N-linked glycans gave rise to glycosylated Ac45-forms of approximately 61 and approximately 63 kDa that are cleaved to a C-terminal fragment of 42-44 kDa (the deglycosylated form is approximately 23 kDa), and a previously not detected approximately 22-kDa N-terminal cleavage fragment (the deglycosylated form is approximately 20 kDa). Degradation of the N-terminal fragment is rapid, does not occur in lysosomes and is inhibited by brefeldin A. Both the N- and C-terminal fragment pass the medial Golgi, as they become partially endoglycosidase H resistant. The Ac45 cleavage event is a relatively slow process (half-life of intact Ac45 is 4-6 h) and takes place in the early secretory pathway, as it is not affected by brefeldin A and monensin. Tunicamycin inhibited N-linked glycosylation of Ac45 and interfered with the cleavage process, suggesting that Ac45 needs proper folding for the cleavage to occur. Together, our results indicate that Ac45 folding and cleavage occur slowly and early in the secretory pathway, and that the cleavage event may be linked to V-ATPase activation.
