No functional role could yet be established for the glycosylated beta-subunit of the Na,K-ATPase. In this study, we describe the intracellular processing of the beta-subunit as a glycoprotein in toad bladder cells and the consequences of its structural perturbation with glycosylation inhibitors on the cellular expression of the alpha- and beta-subunits and on the structural and functional maturation of the enzyme. Controlled trypsinolysis of homogenates from pulse-labeled cells reveals that the beta-subunit is subjected to glycosylation-dependent structural rearrangements during its intracellular routing. Inhibition of correct terminal glycosylation of the beta-subunit with deoxynojirimycin or swainsonine has no effect on the trypsin sensitivity of the alpha-subunit, its ability to perform cation-dependent conformation changes or the cellular Na,K-ATPase activity. Acquisition of core-sugars is sufficient for the enzyme to assume its catalytic functions. On the other hand, complete inhibition of glycosylation with tunicamycin leads to a destabilization of both the beta- and the alpha-subunits as judged by their higher trypsin sensitivity. In addition, tunicamycin treatment results in a decrease of the amount of newly synthesized beta- and alpha-subunit indicating that a glycoprotein, possibly the beta-subunit itself, plays a role in the efficient accumulation of the alpha-subunit in the endoplasmic reticulum.

In the current study, the pathogenesis of proximal tubular cyst formation was studied in an animal model of polycystic kidney disease, the CPK mouse. The specific roles of (a) sodium-potassium adenosine triphosphatase (Na-K ATPase) activity, determined by an enzyme-linked kinetic microassay, (b) proximal tubular epithelial hyperplasia, determined by calculation of mitotic indices, and (c) altered proximal tubular basal lamina formation, determined by immunohistological localization of basal lamina glycoproteins, were investigated at progressive developmental stages of CPK proximal tubular cyst formation. Increases in renal Na-K ATPase were present at the earliest fetal stages of proximal tubular cyst formation, and subsequently paralleled the course of proximal tubular cyst progression. Proximal tubular epithelial hyperplasia, although not present at the earliest stages of cyst formation, was a consistent feature of progressive proximal tubular cystic enlargement. Abnormalities in basal lamina glycoprotein expression were not present at any stage of proximal tubular cyst development. We conclude that increased Na-K ATPase and tubular epithelial hyperplasia are significant features of proximal tubular cyst formation in the CPK mouse.

The content of gangliosides and sialosylglycoproteins was investigated in a coated-vesicle-enriched fraction prepared from bovine brain by the method of Pearse [(1975) J. Mol. Biol. 97, 93-98] and further purified by g.p.c. (glass-permeation chromatography) [Pfeffer & Kelly (1981) J. Cell Biol. 91, 385-391]. From morphological criteria and from the analysis of the polypeptide pattern on sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis the coated-vesicle fraction (CV-fraction) appeared more than 95% pure. The ganglioside-NeuAc (N-acetylneuraminate), glycoprotein-NeuAc, phospholipid and cholesterol contents of CV-fraction were compared with those of bovine brain synaptic plasma membranes (SPM). The cholesterol to phospholipid molar ratio was 0.47 +/- 0.07 in CV-fraction and 1.06 +/- 0.08 in SPM. The ganglioside-NeuAc and glycoprotein-NeuAc to phospholipid molar ratios were 0.047 and 0.020 respectively in CV-fraction and 0.039 and 0.016 respectively in SPM. The (Na+ + K+)-dependent ATPase activity sensitive to ouabain (in mumol of Pi/h per nmol of phospholipid) was 1.04 in CV-fraction and 0.63 in SPM; the ratio between this activity and the activity resistant to ouabain was 2 in CV-fraction and 1.4 in SPM. A t.l.c. analysis of the ganglioside fractions showed that most of the ganglioside species present in SPM were present in CV-fraction. In a rat brain coated-vesicle preparation not subjected to g.p.c., the activities [as sugar-radioactivity (c.p.m.) transferred/h per mumol of phospholipid] of the enzymes CMP-NeuAc:sialosyl-lactosylceramide (GM3) sialosyl-, UDP-Gal:N-acetylgalactosaminyl(sialosyl)lactosylceramide (GM2) galactosyl- and UDP-GalNAc:sialosyl-lactosylceramide (GM3) N-acetylgalactosaminyl-transferases, which were considered Golgi-apparatus markers, were about 19, 16 and 10% respectively of those determined in rat brain neuronal perikaryon-enriched fractions. Taken together, the results indicate that most of the major gangliosides are constituents of coated vesicles.

A high molecular weight polypeptide, identified as an ATPase subunit by direct ultraviolet photoaffinity labeling, has been shown to be a component of nuclear envelope-enriched fractions prepared from a variety of higher eukaryotes (Berrios, M., G. Blobel, and P. A. Fisher, 1983, J. Biol. Chem., 258:4548-4555). In rat liver as well as Drosophila melanogaster embryos, this polypeptide appears to be a form of myosin heavy chain. This conclusion is based on both immunochemical and immunocytochemical data, as well as on the results of CNBr and chymotryptic peptide map analyses. In Drosophila, the identification of this myosin heavy chain-like polypeptide as a nuclear envelope component has been corroborated in situ by indirect immunofluorescence analyses using permeabilized whole cells, mechanically extruded nuclei, and cryosections obtained from a number of larval tissues. Localization appears to be restricted to the nuclear periphery in a manner similar to that observed for the nuclear lamins and the pore complex glycoprotein. Antibodies directed against the Drosophila nuclear envelope ATPase have also been shown to decorate mammalian and higher plant cell nuclei in situ. Implications for intracellular nuclear mobility and for nucleocytoplasmic exchange of macromolecules in vivo are discussed.

Transverse tubule (TT) membranes isolated from chicken skeletal muscle possess a very active magnesium-stimulated ATPase (Mg-ATPase) activity. The Mg-ATPase has been tentatively identified as a 102-kD concanavalin A (Con A)-binding glycoprotein comprising 80% of the integral membrane protein (Okamoto, V.R., 1985, Arch. Biochem. Biophys., 237:43-54). To firmly identify the Mg-ATPase as the 102-kD TT component and to characterize the structural relationship between this protein and the closely related sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca-ATPase, polyclonal antibodies were raised against the purified SR Ca-ATPase and the TT 102-kD glycoprotein, and the immunological relationship between the two ATPases was studied by means of Western immunoblots and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA). Anti-chicken and anti-rabbit SR Ca-ATPase antibodies were not able to distinguish between the TT 102-kD glycoprotein and the SR Ca-ATPase. The SR Ca-ATPase and the putative 102-kD TT Mg-ATPase also possess common structural elements, as indicated by amino acid compositional and peptide mapping analyses. The two 102-kD proteins exhibit similar amino acid compositions, especially with regard to the population of charged amino acid residues. Furthermore, one-dimensional peptide maps of the two proteins, and immunoblots thereof, show striking similarities indicating that the two proteins share many common epitopes and peptide domains. Polyclonal antibodies raised against the purified TT 102-kD glycoprotein were localized by indirect immunofluorescence exclusively in the TT-rich I bands of the muscle cell. The antibodies substantially inhibit the Mg-ATPase activity of isolated TT vesicles, and Con A pretreatment could prevent antibody inhibition of TT Mg-ATPase activity. Further, the binding of antibodies to intact TT vesicles could be reduced by prior treatment with Con A. We conclude that the TT 102-kD glycoprotein is the TT Mg-ATPase and that a high degree of structural homology exists between this protein and the SR Ca-ATPase.

The E3/19-kDa glycoprotein (E3/19K) coded by adenovirus type 2 (Ad2) is known to inhibit the cell-surface expression of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I antigens by binding to the MHC antigens intracellularly, and thus reduces recognition of antigens by MHC-restricted cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL). We have studied the effect of the E3/19K expression in SV40-infected monkey cells, TC-7/H-2Kb and TC-7/H-2Db expressing transfected H-2Kb and H-2Db antigens, respectively, on the cell-surface H-2 class I antigens and on lysis of the cells by SV40 large tumor (T)-antigen-specific H-2Kb- and H-2Db-restricted CTL clones. H-2Db antigen expression on TC-7/H-2Db cells was drastically reduced by infection with Ad2 but not with an E3/19K-negative SV40-Ad2 hybrid virus, Ad2+ND1, as early as 12 hr postinfection. However, H-2Kb antigen expression on Ad2-infected TC7/H-2Kb cells remained unaltered, even at 24 hr postinfection. Specific lysis of SV40-infected TC-7/H-2Db cells by H-2Db-restricted SV40 T-antigen-specific CTL clones, Y-1 and Y-3, was strongly reduced by coinfection of the target cells with Ad2 but not with Ad2+ND1. Lysis of SV40-infected TC-7/H-2Kb cells by a H-2Kb-restricted SV40 T-antigen-specific CTL clone Y-4 was also reduced significantly by Ad2 infection, but not Ad2+ND1. These results indicate that the E3/19K protein affects cell-surface expression of H-2Db antigen but not H-2Kb antigen.

Sodium plus potassium activated adenosinetriphosphatase [(Na,K)ATPase] is composed of a catalytic subunit (alpha) and a glycoprotein subunit (beta) of unknown function. A method has been developed to label the beta subunit of purified dog kidney (Na,K)ATPase with fluorescent probes. The method consists of oxidation of beta-subunit oligosaccharides, reaction of the resulting aldehydes with fluorescent hydrazides, and reduction of the hydrazones and unreacted aldehydes with NaBH4. Two oxidation methods were compared. Simultaneous treatment with neuraminidase and galactose oxidase did not inhibit significantly (Na,K)ATPase activity and allowed insertion of up to 11 mol of probe per mol of beta. In contrast, oxidation of (Na,K)ATPase oligosaccharides with periodate resulted in 50-80% inhibition of the (Na,K)ATPase activity with low or undetectable labeling. Eleven commercial probes and two novel hydrazides were tested for labeling of (Na,K)ATPase treated with galactose oxidase and neuraminidase. Eight probes did not label (Na,-K)ATPase but labeled red cell ghosts oxidized with periodate. Four probes labeled beta specifically but either adsorbed to the membrane tightly, or cross-linked the beta subunits, or formed unstable adducts. Lucifer yellow CH labeled beta specifically without membrane adsorption. Labeling stoichiometries from 1 to 11 mol of lucifer yellow CH per mol of beta were obtained without inhibition of (Na,K)ATPase activity and without significant alteration of the anthroylouabain binding capacity or its association and dissociation kinetics. Anthroylouabain specifically bound to the lucifer-labeled (Na,K)ATPase had a decreased quantum yield, probably due to resonance energy transfer. This suggests that the sites of lucifer attachment on beta are within energy transfer distance from the cardiac glycoside site on alpha.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Na,K-ATPase was detected in crude microsomes of guinea-pig retinal layers, cornea and lens by immunoblotting using antibodies generated against purified kidney Na,K-ATPase. The antiserum cross-reacted with the alpha catalytic subunit of the enzyme from the eye tissues but not the beta glycoprotein subunit, suggesting a high degree of tissue-to-tissue variability in the beta subunit. The apparent molecular weight of the alpha subunit in retinal layers, cornea and lens was 95 Kd which is similar to alpha subunit in kidney. In the retinal layers and cornea, the antiserum detected proteolytic fragments of the enzyme. This method can be used to detect aggregates or proteolytic fragments of Na,K-ATPase in disease states of eye tissues in which electrolyte imbalances have been implicated, such as in experimental and senile cataracts.

This study evaluates the relative contributions of neural impulse activity and neurotrophic (non-impulse) factors by comparing the effects of denervation and the blockage of neural impulse activity on various biochemical parameters of mixed muscle sarcolemma. Muscle paralysis was induced by repeated injection of Tetrodotoxin (TTx) to the sciatic nerve. After seven days of inactivity the isolated sarcolemma was analyzed for protein and glycoprotein composition, Na+/K+ ATPase activity, Concanavalin A binding to intact sarcolemma and to carbohydrate components separated in SDS-polyacrylamide gels and sialyl and galactosyl transferase activity. The results have shown that following muscle inactivity all of the parameters except glycosyl transferases changed in a similar manner but to a lesser degree than denervation. It is concluded that trophic factors in addition to neural impulse activity play a role in the regulation of a number of surface membrane properties.

Membrane-bound (Na,K)-ATPases were exposed to limited papain digestion. We could not find the active (Na,K)-ATPase lacking glycoprotein subunit for the enzymes from three different sources (outer medulla of dog kidney, electric organs of Narke japonica and larvae of Artemia salina). It seemed unlikely that the glycoprotein subunit was selectively removed from (Na,K)-ATPase by papain digestion.
