Detergent-solubilization of hog gastric microsomal membrane proteins followed by affinity chromatography using wheat germ agglutinin or Ricinus communis I agglutinin resulted in the isolation of five glycoproteins with the apparent molecular masses on sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gels of (in kDa): 60-80 (two glycoproteins sharing this molecular mass); 125-150; and 190-210. In the nonionic detergent Nonidet P-40 (NP-40), the 94 kDa H+/K(+)-ATPase was recovered exclusively in the lectin-binding fraction; however, in the cationic detergent dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide, most of the ATPase was recovered in the nonbinding fraction. Detection of glycoproteins either by periodic acid-dansyl hydrazine staining of carbohydrate in polyacrylamide gels or by Western blots probed with lectins indicated that the majority of the ATPase molecules are not glycosylated. In addition, in the absence of microsomal glycoproteins, the NP-40-solubilized ATPase does not bind to a lectin column. Taken together, these results suggest that the recovery of NP-40-solubilized ATPase in the lectin-binding fraction is due to its noncovalent interaction with a gastric microsomal glycoprotein. Immunoprecipitation of the ATPase from NP-40-solubilized microsomal membrane proteins resulted in the co-precipitation of a single 60-80 kDa glycoprotein. Characterization of the 60-80 kDa glycoprotein associated with the ATPase revealed that: it is a transmembrane protein; it has an apparent core molecular mass of 32 kDa; and, it has five asparagine-linked oligosaccharide chains. Given its similarity to the glycosylated beta-subunit of the Na+/K(+)-ATPase, this 60-80 kDa gastric microsomal glycoprotein is suggested to be a beta-subunit of the H+/K(+)-ATPase.

Retinal degeneration-B (rdgB) mutants of Drosophila melanogaster undergo rapid light-induced retinal degeneration. We conducted a molecular characterization of the rdgB gene to examine the nature of the gene product. Through the isolation and analysis of X-ray-induced rdgB alleles, the cytogenetic position of the gene was determined to be the 12C1 salivary region. Genomic DNA corresponding to this region was isolated by a chromosomal walk. The chromosomal aberrations associated with the three X-ray-induced rdgB alleles were shown to be within a 5-kb genomic region. A single transcription unit was affected by the alleles, identifying it as the rdgB gene. RNA-RNA Northern hybridization indicated the rdgB gene transcribed five mRNAs ranging in size from 3.9 to 9.5 kb. These mRNAs were expressed in adult heads, but not detected in bodies. Analysis of RNA isolated from wild-type and eyes absent heads indicated that rdgB mRNA expression was not restricted to the retina. DNA sequence analysis of the transcription unit revealed an open reading frame capable of encoding a 116-kD transmembrane protein. The deduced protein shows no overall homology to previously described proteins, but has sequences in common with proposed functional domains of Ca(2+)-ATPase.

The purified Na+,Mg2(+)-ATPase from the Acholeplasma laidlawii B plasma membrane was reconstituted with dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine and the lipid thermotropic phase behavior of the proteoliposomes formed was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry. The effect of this ATPase on the host lipid phase transition is markedly dependent on the amount of protein incorporated. At low protein/lipid ratios, the presence of increasing quantities of ATPase in the proteoliposomes increases the temperature and enthalpy while decreasing the cooperativity of the dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine gel to liquid-crystalline phase transition. At higher protein/lipid ratios, the incorporation of increasing amounts of this enzyme does not further alter the temperature and cooperativity of the phospholipid chain-melting transition, but progressively and markedly decreases the transition enthalpy. Plots of lipid phase transition enthalpy versus protein concentration suggest that at the higher protein/lipid ratios each ATPase molecule removes approximately 1000 dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine molecules from participation in the cooperative gel to liquid-crystalline phase transition of the bulk lipid phase. These results indicate that this integral transmembrane protein interacts in a complex, concentration-dependent manner with its host phospholipid and that such interactions involve both hydrophobic interactions with the lipid bilayer core and electrostatic interactions with the lipid polar head groups at the bilayer surface.

Cell-CAM 105 (C-CAM), a cell adhesion molecule in rat hepatocytes, was digested with trypsin, and peptides were isolated and sequenced by Edman degradation. The sequences of 4 peptides agreed with different regions of rat liver ecto-ATPase. Detailed biochemical analyses confirmed the identity between C-CAM and the ecto-ATPase. C-CAM/ecto-ATPase is a transmembrane protein having 4 immunoglobulin-like domains in the extracellular portion, demonstrating membership of the immunoglobulin superfamily. The ATPase activity suggests that ATP might influence cell adhesion, which would explain the inhibitory effect of exogenously added ATP on adhesion of several cell types.

Various classes of tryptophan residues in the Ca2(+)-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes have been distinguished on the basis of their sensitivities to certain fluorescence quenchers: the brominated phospholipid 1,2-bis(9,10-dibromostearoyl)-sn-glycero(3)phosphocholine, the calcium ionophore calcimycin (A23187) and its brominated analog (4-bromo-A23187), and the nucleotide analog 2'(3')-O-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl)-adenosine 5'-triphosphate. We show that tryptophans located at the protein-lipid interface are the main contributors to the well-known fluorescence intensity change occurring in parallel with the conformational rearrangement induced by addition of calcium to the ATPase or its removal; Trp-794 on the ATPase chain may be one of these tryptophans. We also show that tryptophans more deeply embedded in the transmembrane protein structure contribute to the fluorescence change observed upon phosphorylation from inorganic phosphate of the calcium-free ATPase. This phosphorylation step involves opposite changes in the fluorescence quantum yield of tryptophans located in the membrane and in the cytoplasmic regions of the ATPase. This result is in agreement with models in which phosphorylation from inorganic phosphate not only changes the ATPase conformation locally around the catalytic center, but also reorganizes the membrane portion of the ATPase by long-range action, allowing, for instance, the calcium sites to become accessible from the luminal medium.

The voltage-sensitive sodium channel is an intrinsic membrane protein that is nonrandomly distributed in neurons, suggesting a possible interaction with other cellular constituents. In this study, we have directly tested the hypothesis that components of the cytoskeleton interact with sodium channels. Utilizing the methods of sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and blot overlay, we have identified a 33-kilodalton cytoskeletal protein (p33) that binds 32P-labeled sodium channel purified from rat brain. This binding is a high-affinity (KD less than 1 nM) protein-protein interaction that is blocked by low concentrations of unlabeled sodium channels but is not blocked by monosaccharides, the complex glycoprotein fetuin, the transmembrane protein Na+-K+-ATPase, or bovine serum albumin. Levels of p33 are highest in lung and spleen while lower levels are found in brain, peripheral nerve, skeletal muscle, liver, and testes. This tissue distribution implies that the sodium channel may not be the only ligand for p33.

Recently published data indicate that the alpha-subunit of Na,K-ATPase, a transmembrane protein of animal cell plasma membranes, is synthesized as a soluble precursor. In the present experiments we demonstrate that an apparent "soluble" form can indeed be detected in crude cytosolic fractions prepared by centrifugation from MDCK cells disrupted by sonication. We find, however, that this form has no precursor-product relationship with membrane-associated alpha-subunit. The quantity of unsedimentable alpha-subunit can be greatly diminished by increasing the centrifugal field employed to remove membranous vesicles from the cytosol fraction. Sonication of membrane pellets generates alpha-subunit which, like the "soluble" form, resists pelleting. Finally, cytosol fractions prepared from cells disrupted by sonication contain membrane-bound vesicles which can be immunoadsorbed on Staphylococcus aureus cells coated with a monoclonal antibody directed against alpha-subunit. We find, therefore, that the previously observed soluble precursor of alpha-subunit is actually a component of small unpelleted membrane vesicles generated by harsh disruption conditions. When cells are disrupted by less violent techniques no newly synthesized alpha-subunit can be detected in the cytosol fraction. We calculate that to escape detection under our experimental conditions a bona fide soluble precursor of alpha-subunit must have a cytosolic t1/2 less than 20 s. We conclude that the alpha-subunit is most probably inserted into the bilayer cotranslationally.

Crossed immunoelectrophoresis was used to analyze the components of membrane vesicles of anaerobically grown Escherichia coli. The number of precipitation lines in the crossed immunoelectrophoresis patterns of membrane vesicles isolated from E. coli grown anaerobically on glucose plus nitrate and on glycerol plus fumarate were 83 and 70, respectively. Zymogram staining techniques were used to identify immunoprecipitates corresponding to nitrate reductase, formate dehydrogenase, fumarate reductase, and glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase in crossed immunoelectrophoresis reference patterns. The identification of fumarate reductase by its succinate oxidizing activity was confirmed with purified enzyme and with mutants lacking or overproducing this enzyme. In addition, precipitation lines were found for hydrogenase, cytochrome oxidase, the membrane-bound ATPase, and the dehydrogenases for succinate, malate, dihydroorotate, D-lactate, 6-phosphogluconate, and NADH. Adsorption experiments with intact and solubilized membrane vesicles showed that fumarate reductase, hydrogenase, glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, nitrate reductase, and ATPase are located at the inner surface of the cytoplasmic membrane; on the other hand, the results suggest that formate dehydrogenase is a transmembrane protein.

The ATPase (ATP synthase) complex of Escherichia coli is composed of an extrinsic membrane protein (ECF1), which contains the active site for ATP formation and hydrolysis, and is attached to ECF0, a transmembrane protein through which protons move to or from the active site on ECF1. ECF1 is composed of five subunits (alpha-epsilon) with a stoichiometry of alpha 3 beta 3 gamma delta epsilon. The stoichiometry of the three subunits (a-c) of ECF0 is probably a1b2c10-15. In addition to 3 mol tightly bound adenine nucleotide/mol ECF1, three other "exchangeable" nucleotide binding sites can be detected. These sites are still present in the alpha and beta subunit defective ECF1 of uncA401 and uncD412 mutants, although some changes in the tightness of binding are evident. The active sites of ECF1 require normal alpha and beta subunits and may be present at alpha beta subunit interfaces. Hydrolysis of ATP requires cooperative interactions between alpha and beta subunits. At low concentrations of ATP, in the absence of added divalent cations, hydrolysis of this substrate can occur at a single site without release of the product. This is consistent with alternating or sequential site mechanisms for ATP hydrolysis or synthesis. Predictions of secondary and tertiary structures from the known primary amino acid sequences of polypeptides a, b, and c have led to the following conclusions. Polypeptide a forms six or seven transmembrane alpha helices. The amino-terminal sequence of polypeptide b spans the membrane, but most of the protein is exposed on the cytoplasmic surface of the membrane where it can be cleaved by proteases in vitro.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Determination of maximal Na,K-ATPase activity in isolated plasma membranes is generally hampered by the vesicular nature of the preparation, limiting access of ATP and ions to one face or the other of the transmembrane protein. Detergents are often used to make the vesicles permeable to the substrates; however, the detergent/protein ratio is extremely critical for optimal activation. The use of bovine serum albumin as a detergent buffer is described. With this method the amount of membrane protein in the assay can be varied over a wide range, with full detergent activation. The method has been used for assay of Na,K-ATPase activity of membranes from dog kidney, rabbit brain, and electric organ of eel.
