Primary active transport of ions through the plasma membranes of plants and fungi is driven by a proton-dependent ATPase, which consists of a membrane-embedded (Mr 104,000) polypeptide, forms a beta-aspartylphosphate intermediate and is blocked by orthovanadate. It can be extracted from cell membranes and reactivated in native lipid micelles or in exogenous phospholipid vesicles. For the fungus Neurospora, vesicle preparations directly display proton-pumping, and can develop membrane potentials (delta psi) of 120 mV or pH differences (delta pH) of 2 units, with a stoichiometry of 1 H+ transported per ATP molecule split. In vivo, the proton pump sustains delta psi values of 150-350 mV (cytoplasm negative) and delta pH values up to 3.5 units (pHi congruent to 7, with pHo = 3.5). Since the total proton-motive force thus can exceed 400 mV, compared with a delta GATP of 500 mV, the stoichiometry must be 1 H+/ATP, with little leeway for neutralizing ions. Kinetic analysis of pump-currents measured during forcing of [ATP]i, pHo, pHi, and delta psi yields three main conclusions: again, the stoichiometry is 1 H+/ATP; energy conversion occurs during transmembrane charge transfer, which therefore is probably the E1 approximately P--E2 X P transition (see Na+,K+-ATPase); protons are strongly dissociated at both membrane surfaces, with pKi congruent to 5.4 versus pHi = 7.2, and pKo congruent to 2.9 versus pHo = 5.8. Considerations of structure and partial-reaction chemistry (by analogy with the Na+,K+-ATPase) suggest a kinetically testable model for the transport mechanism: a sequential, double-gated channel, through which the membrane field is transported across the ion, rather than vice versa.

Isolated rat pancreatic islets were pulse-labeled for 5 min with [3H]leucine then chased for 25 min, during which time endogenously labeled [3H]proinsulin becomes predominantly compartmented in immature secretory granules. The islets were then homogenized in isotonic sucrose (pH 7.4) and a beta-granule preparation obtained by differential centrifugation and discontinuous sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation. This preparation was enriched 8-fold in beta-granules. Aside from contamination with mitochondria and a limited number of lysosomes, the beta-granule preparation was essentially free of any other organelles involved in proinsulin synthesis and packaging (i.e. microsomal elements and, more particularly, Golgi complex). Conversion of endogenously labeled [3H]proinsulin was followed in this beta-granule fraction for up to 2 h at 37 degrees C in a buffer (pH 7.3) that mimicked the cationic constituents of B-cell cytosol, during which time 92% of the beta-granules remained intact. Proinsulin conversion was analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography. The rate of proinsulin conversion to insulin was stimulated by 2.2 +/- 0.1-fold (n = 6) (at a 60-min incubation) in the presence of ATP (2 mM) and an ATP regenerating system compared to beta-granule preparations incubated without ATP. This ATP stimulation was abolished in the presence of beta-granule proton pump ATPase inhibitors (tributyltin, 2.5 microM, or 1,3-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, 50 microM). Inhibitors of mitochondrial proton pump ATPases (sodium azide, 20 mM, or oligomycin, 10 micrograms/ml) had no effect on the ATP stimulation of proinsulin conversion. When granules were incubated in a more acidic buffer (pH 5.5), proinsulin conversion was increased relative to that at pH 7.3. At pH 5.5, ATP no longer stimulated conversion, and tributyltin and 1,3-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide had no effect. Disrupted granules only converted proinsulin to a limited extent, and neither ATP nor the inhibitors affected conversion. It is therefore suggested that ATP stimulation of proinsulin conversion in isolated, intact, beta-granules is secondary to intragranular acidification by an ATP-dependent proton pump (reflecting the low pH optimum for proinsulin conversion), rather than ATP dependence of converting activity per se.

N,N'-Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD) inhibits 100% of proton transport and 80-85% of (Mg2+)-ATPase activity in clathrin-coated vesicles. Half-maximum inhibition of proton transport is observed at 10 microM DCCD after 30 min. Although treatment of the coated vesicle (H+)-ATPase with DCCD has no effect on ATP hydrolysis in the detergent-solubilized state, sensitivity of proton transport and ATPase activity to DCCD is restored following reconstitution into phospholipid vesicles. In addition, treatment of the detergent-solubilized enzyme with DCCD followed by reconstitution gives a preparation that is blocked in both proton transport and ATP hydrolysis. These results suggest that although the coated vesicle (H+)-ATPase can react with DCCD in either a membrane-bound or detergent-solubilized state, inhibition of ATPase activity is only manifested when the pump is present in sealed membrane vesicles. To identify the subunit responsible for inhibition of the coated vesicle (H+)-ATPase by DCCD, we have labeled the partially purified enzyme with [14C]DCCD. A single polypeptide of molecular weight 17,000 is labeled. The extremely hydrophobic nature of this polypeptide is indicated by its extraction with chloroform:methanol. The 17,000-dalton protein can be labeled to a maximum stoichiometry of 0.99 mol of DCCD/mol of protein with 100% inhibition of proton transport occurring at a stoichiometry of 0.15-0.20 mol of DCCD/mol of protein. Amino acid analysis of the chloroform:methanol extracted 17,000-dalton polypeptide reveals a high percentage of nonpolar amino acids. The similarity in properties of this protein and the DCCD-binding subunit of the coupling factor (H+)-ATPases suggests that the 17,000-dalton polypeptide may function as part of a proton channel in the coated vesicle proton pump.

Effects of anions and membrane potential on the reconstituted proton pump from chromaffin granules were investigated. When acetate was present inside of the vesicles, ATP-dependent proton uptake was absolutely dependent on external chloride. Without external chloride, however, substantial proton uptake was observed when chloride or sulfate was present inside of the vesicles. Inside negative membrane potential drove ATP-dependent proton uptake regardless of the anion species present inside or outside of the vesicles. It is concluded that the internal anion binding site and membrane potential regulate the proton pumping activity of the ATPase.

In this review, I hope to achieve the following: (a) to document the presence of a lysosome-like proton pump ATPase in many different membrane systems of animal, plant and microbial origin; (b) to glean from the diverse data common characteristics of these ATPases, especially as regards their similarities and differences with mitochondrial-type F1F0 proton pump ATPases; and (c) to consider questions of synthesis and regulation of a cellular proton pump system with such a widespread distribution.

The clathrin-coated vesicle proton-translocating complex is composed of a maximum of eight major polypeptides. Of these potential subunits, only the 17-kDa component, which is a proton pore, has been defined functionally (Sun, S.Z., Xie, X. S., and Stone, D. K. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 14790-14794). ATPase-and proton-pumping activities of the 200-fold purified proton-translocating complex are supported by Mg2+, whereas Ca2+ will only activate ATP hydrolysis. Like Mg2+-activated ATPase activity, Ca2+-supported ATP hydrolysis is inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide, NO3-, and an inhibitory antibody and is stimulated by Cl- and phosphatidylserine. Thus, Ca2+ prevents coupling of ATPase activity to vectoral proton movement, and Ca2+-activated ATPase activity is a partial reaction useful for analyzing the subunit structure required for ATP hydrolysis. The 530-kDa holoenzyme was dissociated with 3 M urea and subcomplexes, and isolated subunits were partially resolved by glycerol gradient centrifugation. No combination of these components yielded Mg2+-activated ATPase or proton pumping. Ca2+-activated ATP hydrolysis was not catalyzed by a subcomplex containing the 70- and 58-kDa subunits but was restored by recombination of the 70-, 58-, 40-, and 33-kDa polypeptides, indicating that these are subunits of the clathrin-coated vesicle proton pump which are necessary for ATP hydrolysis.

The clathrin-coated vesicle proton pump is a representative member of the new class of endomembrane proton ATPases that share an inhibitor profile which distinguishes them from classic F1F0 and E1E2-type proton pumps. The coated vesicle proton pump is a large (530 kDa) heteroligomer composed of eight polypeptides with molecular masses of 116, 70, 58, 40, 38, 34, 33 and 17 kDa. The 200-fold purified enzyme catalyses ATP-generated proton pumping when reconstituted in liposomes composed of pure lipids. Subunit function has been determined by partial reaction analysis of subunit and subcomplex activities. The isolated 17 kDa subunit, when co-reconstituted with bacteriorhodopsin, forms a dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-inhibitable proton channel. Selective removal of the 116 kDa subunit transforms the proton ATPase from a Mg2+-activatable to a Ca2+-activatable ATPase. Subsequent dissociation and reconstitution of subunits reveals that the 70, 58, 40 and 33 kDa components are required, in composite, to form a functional ATP-hydrolytic core, and that no single subunit or subcomplex deficient in these subunits can catalyse ATP hydrolysis.

The apical membrane of mammalian proximal tubule undergoes rapid membrane cycling by exocytosis and endocytosis. Osmotic water and ATP-driven proton transport were measured in endocytic vesicles from rabbit and rat proximal tubule apical membrane labeled in vivo with the fluid phase marker fluorescein-dextran. Osmotic water permeability (Pf) was determined from the time course of fluorescein-dextran fluorescence after exposure of endosomes to an inward osmotic gradient in a stopped-flow apparatus. Pf was 0.009 (rabbit) and 0.029 cm/s (rat) (23 degrees C) and independent of osmotic gradient size. Pf in rabbit endosomes was inhibited reversibly by HgCl2 (KI = 0.2 mM) and had an activation energy of 6.4 +/- 0.5 kcal/mol (15-35 degrees C). Endosomal proton ATPase activity was measured from the time course of internal pH, measured by fluorescein-dextran fluorescence, after the addition of external ATP. Endosomes contained an ATP-driven proton pump that was sensitive to N-ethylmaleimide and insensitive to vanadate and oligomycin. In response to saturating [ATP] the pump acidified the endosomal compartment at a rate of 0.17 (rat) and 0.029 pH unit/s (rabbit); at an external pH of 7.4, the steady-state pH was 6.4 (rat) and 6.5 (rabbit). To examine whether water channels and the proton ATPase were present in the same endosome, the time course of fluorescein-dextran fluorescence was measured in response to an osmotic gradient in the presence and absence of ATP. ATP did not alter endosome Pf, but decreased the amplitude of the fluorescence signal by 43 +/- 3% (rabbit) and 47 +/- 4% (rat).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

In plants, the transport of solutes across the plasma membrane is driven by a proton pump (H+-ATPase) that produces an electric potential and pH gradient. We have isolated and sequenced a full-length cDNA clone that encodes this enzyme in Arabidopsis thaliana. The protein predicted from its nucleotide sequence encodes 959 amino acids and has a molecular mass of 104,207 Da. The plant protein shows structural features common to a family of cation-translocating ATPases found in the plasma membrane of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, with the greatest overall identity in amino acid sequence (36%) to the H+-ATPase observed in the plasma membrane of fungi. The structure predicted from a hydropathy plot contains at least eight transmembrane segments, with most of the protein (73%) extending into the cytoplasm and only 5% of the residues exposed on the external surface. Unique features of the plant enzyme include diverged sequences at the amino and carboxyl termini as well as greater hydrophilic character in three extracellular loops.

We have previously provided evidence for ATP-dependent glutamate uptake into synaptic vesicles, and, based upon the unique properties of the vesicular uptake system, we have proposed that the vesicular glutamate translocator plays a crucial role in selecting glutamate for neurotransmission. In this study, we have solubilized the vesicular glutamate uptake system, proposed to consist of at least a glutamate translocator and a proton pump Mg-ATPase, from rat brain synaptic vesicles, and reconstituted the functional ATP-dependent glutamate uptake system into liposomes. The glutamate uptake in the reconstituted system is dependent upon ATP, markedly potentiated by low millimolar concentrations of chloride and inhibited by agents known to dissipate electrochemical proton gradients. Moreover, it exhibited low affinity for glutamate (Km = 2 mM), yet high specificity for glutamate; thus, it did not recognize aspartate and other agents known to interact with glutamate receptors. These properties are indistinguishable from those observed in intact synaptic vesicles. The solubilized functional components of the glutamate uptake system, alone or as a complex, have been estimated to have a Stokes radius in the range of 69 to 84 A. The reconstitution experiments described here provide a functional assay for the solubilized vesicular glutamate uptake system and represent an initial step towards the purification of the glutamate translocator.
