We described previously the existence of a soluble ATPase activity in rat liver mitochondria [1]. The purification and catalytic properties have been described [2]. In a continuation of these experiments, we have studied the immunologic and structural properties of one molecular form of this enzyme : ATPase I. We have prepared the antiserum anti-ATPase I and demonstrated the purity of our enzyme preparation by immunodiffusion and immunoelectrophoresis. An immunohistochemical method also confirmed the localization of ATPase I in the soluble fraction of mitochondria. The molecular weight of ATPase I was measured by G 100 Sephadex gel filtration and was found to be 18,400; electrophoresis on polyacrylamide gels gave a value of 18,600. The pHi of ATPase I was found to be 7,2. Amino acid analysis showed high amounts of aspartic acid, glutamic acid, serine and glycine. The molecular weight calculated from the total amino acid residues was found to be 17,000. Alanine is the NH2 terminal amino acid. The peptide maps obtained after degrading ATPase I with cyanogen bromide or trypsin are in accordance with the methionine, lysine and arginine residues we found in the ATPase I molecule. ATPase I does not appear to be a glycoprotein.

1. Enzymes, proteins, glycoproteins and lipids of rodent bile were compared with those of a plasma-membrane subfraction originating from the hepatocyte bile-canalicular membrane. 2. Three bile-canalicular glycoprotein enzyme activities were detected in bile. Comparison of the pH optimum and immunoinhibition properties of membrane and bile 5'-nucleotidase activity indicated that they were the same enzyme. Correspondence between membrane and bile alkaline phosphodiesterases also suggested that they were the same enzymes. Activities of Mg2+-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase, a lipid-dependent intrinsic membrane protein, and galactosyltransferase, a Golgi membrane marker, were not detected in bile. 3. Rodent bile contained 15 polypeptide bands that differed radically from those of bile-canalicular membranes. Bands that may correspond in molecular weight to liver plasma-membrane glycoproteins were present at low staining intensities in bile. A major protein of apparent molecular weight 49 500 was present, and albumin was detected by immunodiffusion. 4. The lipid composition of bile and bile-canalicular membrane also differed. Phosphatidylcholine accounted for 82% of rat bile phospholipids, and only trace amounts of phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylserine and sphingomyelin were present. 5. The results indicate that in healthy animals, the bile-canalicular membrane is refractory to the action of bile acids during the secretory process. The presence of only small amounts of bile-canalicular membrane components, especially glycoprotein enzymes located at the outer face of the membrane, suggests that these are released from the membrane by bile acids after secretion of bile into the canalicular spaces.

The effects of two lectins, wheat germ agglutinin and concanavalin A, were studied on a variety of parameters of two highly purified (Na+ + K+)-ATPases (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3), from the rectal salt gland of Squalus acanthias and from the electroplax of Electrophorus electricus. Both lectins agglutinated the rectal gland enzyme equally, but wheat germ agglutinin inhibited (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity much more. The electroplax enzyme was only marginally agglutinated and inhibited by the lectins. Neuraminidase treatment of the rectal gland (Na+ + K+)-ATPase had no effect on germ agglutinin inhibition. The inhibition of the rectal gland (Na+ + K+)-ATPase by wheat germ agglutinin could be reversed by N,N'-diacetylchitobiose, which has a high affinity for wheat germ agglutinin. Neither ouabain inhibition nor ouabain binding to the rectal gland enzyme was affected by wheat germ agglutinin. The p-nitrophenylphosphatase activity of the rectal gland enzyme was not inhibited by wheat germ agglutinin. Na+-ATPase activity, which reflects ATP binding and phosphorylation at the substrate site was inhibited by wheat germ agglutinin and this inhibition was reversed by potassium. Evidence is cited (Pennington, J. and Hokin, L.E., in preparation) that the inhibition of the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase by wheat germ agglutinin is due to binding to the glycoprotein subunit.

Using tunicamycin, we have investigated the role of glycoproteins in membrane transport. Tunicamycin is a glucosamine-containing antibiotic that specifically inhibits dolichol pyrophosphate-mediated glycosylation of asparaginyl residues of glycoproteins. Inhibition of protein glycosylation in chick embryo fibroblasts by tunicamycin or other inhibitors of glycosylation resulted in defective transport of glucose, uridine, and amino acid analogs (alpha-aminoisobutyrate and cycloleucine). The defect in glucose transport is accompanied by decreased glucose metabolism, as determined by rates of CO2 and lactate production. In contrast, tunicamycin treatment did not affect other membrane-associated processes, such as secretion of fibronectin and procollagen, uptake of glucose by passive diffusion, Na+/K+ ATPase and adenylate cyclase activities, or stimulation of adenylate cyclase by prostaglandin and cholera toxin. Two glucose/glycosylation-regulated membrane proteins with apparent subunit molecular weights of 95,000 and 75,000 were induced by tunicamycin treatment. Our results indicate that glycoprotein glycosylation is required for membrane transport.

Procedures are described for the large-scale isolation of purified Na,K-ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3) from frozen lamb kidney outer medulla and for the separation of its two protein subunits by hydroxyapatite chromatography in sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). The methods described permit the routine isolation of up to 800 mg of purified Na,K-ATPase in one week, which can subsequently be separated into 500 mg of mr = 95,000 catalytic subunit and 200 mg of glycoprotein with four SDS-hydroxyapatite column runs.

The tritiated cardiotonic steroids, ouabain, digitoxin, and digitoxigenin are shown to photolabel the large polypeptide but not the glycoprotein or proteolipid component of the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase when they are bound to the inhibitory site and exposed to light of 220 or 254 nm. The extent of photolabeling is low, less than 1%, and is limited by photocross-linking of the enzyme. The mechanism of photoincorporation does not appear to be either photolysis of the lactone ring in ouabain or photolysis of tryptophan or tyrosine residues in the polypeptide.

Antibodies against purified (Na+ + K+)ATPase from the rectal gland of Squalus acanthias, as well as against its catalytic subunit, inhibited ouabain binding by as much as 50%. However, antibodies against the glycoprotein subunit did not inhibit ouabain binding. These data suggest that binding of antibody against the catalytic subunit to the enzyme either covers the ouabain binding site or destroys its confirmation, while binding of antibody against the glycoprotein has no such effect.

In this study an attempt was made to elucidate the possible mechanism of the brain microsomal (Na+-K+)ATPase inhibition based on the assumption that glycoprotein part of the enzyme is exposed on the outer membrane surface. In our experiments the modification with concanavalin A of sugar end groups exposed by neuraminidase treatment resulted in a significant decrease of the brain (Na+-K+)ATPase activity. The percentage of the enzyme inhibition by concanavalin A binding to the neuraminidase-treated preparation corresponds to the amount of liberated sialic acids. The modification of the glycoprotein part of the brain (Na+-K+)ATPase complex by neuraminidase and concanavalin A treatments did not affect K+-nitrophenylphosphatase activity.

The luminal plasma membrane of calf urinary bladder epithelium (urothelium) has been isolated by a method designed to preserve enzymic activity as well as structural integrity. The yield was about 80 micrograms per calf bladder. Low levels of 5' nucleotidase, Mg2+-ATPase and (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activities were found in the luminal membrane fraction. Cerebroside was the major lipid present and dodecyl sulphate gel electrophoresis revealed a complex protein and glycoprotein composition in the whole membrane. A membrane fraction consisting of only the plaque areas was shown to have a simpler protein composition with major polypeptides of apparent Mr 12 000 and 22 000. These may associate to form a 30 000 apparent Mr complex which could represent the individual 'particles' of the dodecameric subunits seen by electron microscopy in the plaque regions.

The sialo compounds in the synaptosomal membranes of young rat brain were specifically labeled in vivo by the intracranial injection of radioactive N-acetylmannosamine. More than 95% of the incorporated label was found in glycosidically bound sialic acid. Specific activities of sialic acid in the synaptic membrane gangliosides G71 (monosialo), GD1a (disialo), and GT1 (trisialo) were similar; labeling in GD1b (disialo) was consistently somewhat higher. The highest specific activity of rat brain sialidase was evenly distributed between "small myelin fragment" and synaptosomal membrane fractions, and ouabain-sensitive (Na+, K+)-ATPase also was concentrated in the latter fraction. The greatest amount of bound sialic acid was found in these subcellular fractions having the highest sialidase activity. A microsomal fraction was discovered to contain a small amount of bound sialic acid with a very high degree of radioactive labeling, but no sialidase. Release of sialic acid from the relatively intact membrane preparations by intrinsic membrane-bound sialidase occurred in two recognizable stages. There was a rapid initial release, complete within 30 min, of approximately equal amounts of lipid- and protein-bound sialic acid, corresponding to roughly half of the enzymatically releasable protein-boudn, and somewhat less than one-third of the lipid-bound, sialic acid. The remainder of the membrane sialidase-susceptible sialic acid was released in a second, slower stage. The intrinsic sialidase released 16 +/- 1% of the total sialoprotein and 31 +/- 1% of the total sialolipid sialic acid. Approximately the same amount of sialic acid is releasable from membrane sialolipid by the action of exogenous Vibrio sialidase; almost twice as much is releasable from sialoglycoprotein by this enzyme as compared with the intrinsic membrane sialidase. Each of the various membrane gangliosides appeared to be equally available to the action of the membrane sialidase. The results of this study indicate that both glycolipid- and glycoprotein-bound sialic acid in the synaptic membrane are releasable in situ by the action of the intrinsic synaptic membrane sialidase, and they suggest that this enzyme may act to modulate the physical properties of the membrane. In addition to influencing the rate of hydrolysis of endogenous membrane sialo compounds by intrinsic sialidase, pH had an effect on availability of protein-bound sialic acid. At acid pH, lipid- and protein-bound sialic acid were similarly available, but near neutral pH, gangliosides appeared to be attacked preferentially.
