TTP accelerated ATP-induced superprecipitation of actomyosin in as low a concentration as 30 muM and decreased light scattering by actomyosin. These effects could also be observed in the same way, but to a lesser degree, by addition to TDP. Myosin was able to hydrolyze TTP to TDP, but some important differences were confirmed between myosin TTPase and ATPase. Myosin TTPase was inhibited by actin and showed a much larger Km than that of ATPase. TTP significantly inhibited myosin B ATPase and ATP greatly inhibited myosin B TTPase. These findings suggest that the accelerating effect of TDP and TTP may be due to the binding of thiamine phosphate to the regulatory site of myosin followed by a change in its physical chemical property, rather than due to the competitive binding of thiamine phosphate to the catalytically activity site of myosin.

The fluorescent sulfhydryl reagent S-mercuric-N-dansyl cysteine (Dn-Cys-Hg+) has been used to label a purified preparation of the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase obtained from the electric organ of Electrophorous electricus. The labelled (Na+ +K+)-ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3), although reversibly inhibited, was capable of undergoing conformational changes associated with the active enzyme that could be monitored fluorometrically. The presence of ligands (Na+ + Mg2+ + ATP or Mg2+ + Pi) which are known to convert the enzyme from the E-1 state to the E-2-P state brought about large (97--100%) increases in fluorescence of the dimethylaminonaphthalene sulfonyl (Dn) label. An E-2 state could be achieved by the addition of Mg2+ which caused only a 32.3% increase in fluorescence over the E-1 state. Neither AMP nor TTP with or without Mg2+ or Na+ or Pi added without Mg2+ had any effect on the Dn fluorescence. If the enzyme was denatured, no fluorescence changes were observed. Small changes in the polarization of fluorescence of the Dn moiety were observed under all the conditions used. These small polarization changes and the large increases in the fluorescence intensity suggest that the enzyme can change conformational states in the presence of appropriate ligands and these conformational changes may take place in a relatively limited region of the protein's structure.

The effect of trypsin on gastric (H+ + K+)-ATPase and K+-phosphatase was studied. Loss of both enzymic activities was biphasic, consisting of a fast and slow phase. Several peptides were produced from the original 105,000-dalton region of the sodium dodecyl sulfate electrophoretic separation, but only two, 87,000 and 47,000 daltons, were labeled following incubation with [gamma-33P]ATP. After a 30-min hydrolysis, 35% of the original peptide remained unaltered and appeared to be a glycoprotein. ATP and ADP abolished the second phase of tryptic inactivation of both activities and only two peptides, of 78,000 and 30,000 daltons, were found on the acrylamide gel in addition to the original 105,000-dalton region, neither of which was labeled by [gamma-33P]ATP. The protection was specific for these nucleotides, AMP, beta, gamma-methylene ATP, TTP, and pNPP being ineffective. Na+ and K+ at high concentrations reduced the rate of loss of activity but no change in the peptides produced was found. The level of phosphoenzyme was increased 2-fold by trypsin treatment, whereas the quantity of K+-sensitive phosphoenzyme remained relatively constant. Thus, the 105,000-dalton region is heterogeneous, consisting of a catalytic subunit (the active site is on a 47,000-dalton fragment), a glycoprotein, and another 105,000-dalton peptide. The action of trypsin is initially to prevent interconversion of a K+-insensitive to a K+-sensitive form of the phosphoenzyme, thus inhibiting hydrolysis.

We have prepared human blood lymphocyte membrane vesicles of high purity in sufficient quantity for detailed enzyme analysis. This was made possible by the use of plateletpheresis residues, which contain human lymphocytes in amounts equivalent to thousands of milliliters of blood. The substrate specificity and the kinetics of the cofactor and substrate requirements of the human lymphocyte membrane Na+, K+-ATPase activity were characterized. The Na+, K+-ATPase did not hydrolyze ADP, AMP, ITP, UTP, GTP or TTP. The mean ATPase stimulated by optimal concentrations of Na+ and K+ (Na+, K+-ATPase) was 1.5 nmol of P(i) hydrolyzed, microgram protein-1, 30 min-1 (range 0.9-2.1). This activity was completely inhibited by the cardiac glycoside, ouabain. The K(m) for K+ was approximately 1.0 mM and the K(m) for Na+ was approximately 15 mM. Active Na+ and K+ transport and ouabain-sensitive ATP production increase when lymphocytes are stimulated by PHA. Na+, K+-ATPase activity must increase also to transduce energy for the transport of Na+ and K+. Some studies have reported that PHA stimulates the lymphocyte membrane ATPase directly. We did not observe stimulation of the membrane Na+, K+-ATPase when either lymphocytes or lymphocyte membranes were treated with mitogenic concentrations of PHA. Moreover, PHA did not enhance the reaction velocity of the Na+, K+-ATPase when studied at the K(m) for ATP, Na+, K+ OR Mg++, indicating that it does not alter the affinity of the enzyme for its substrate or cofactors. Thus, our data indicate that the increase in ATPase activity does not occur as a direct result of PHA action on the cell membrane.

We recently found that the brain cytosolic microtubule-associated protein 1C (MAP 1C) is a microtubule-activated ATPase, capable of translocating microtubules in vitro in the direction corresponding to retrograde transport. (Paschal, B. M., H. S. Shpetner, and R. B. Vallee. 1987b. J. Cell Biol. 105:1273-1282; Paschal, B. M., and R. B. Vallee. 1987. Nature [Lond.]. 330:181-183.). Biochemical analysis of this protein (op. cit.) as well as scanning transmission electron microscopy revealed that MAP 1C is a brain cytoplasmic form of the ciliary and flagellar ATPase dynein (Vallee, R. B., J. S. Wall, B. M. Paschal, and H. S. Shpetner. 1988. Nature [Lond.]. 332:561-563). We have now characterized the ATPase activity of the brain enzyme in detail. We found that microtubule activation required polymeric tubulin and saturated with increasing tubulin concentration. The maximum activity at saturating tubulin (Vmax) varied from 186 to 239 nmol/min per mg. At low ionic strength, the Km for microtubules was 0.16 mg/ml tubulin, substantially lower than that previously reported for axonemal dynein. The microtubule-stimulated activity was extremely sensitive to changes in ionic strength and sulfhydryl oxidation state, both of which primarily affected the microtubule concentrations required for half-maximal activation. In a number of respects the brain dynein was enzymatically similar to both axonemal and egg dyneins. Thus, the ATPase required divalent cations, calcium stimulating activity less effectively than magnesium. The MgATPase was inhibited by metavandate (Ki = 5-10 microM for the microtubule-stimulated activity), 1 mM NEM, and 1 mM EHNA. In contrast to other dyneins, the brain enzyme hydrolyzed CTP, TTP, and GTP at higher rates than ATP. Thus, the enzymological properties of the brain cytoplasmic dynein are clearly related to those of other dyneins, though the brain enzyme is unique in its substrate specificity and in its high sensitivity to stimulation by microtubules.

RNA-dependent DNA polymerase activity of avian myeloblastosis virions as measured by the incorporation of [3H]TTP into trichloroacetic acid-precipitable material was very low. This apparent low polymerase activity was observed with virions isolated either from leukemic chicken plasma or from the supernatant of cultured leukemic myeloblasts. The inhibition of reverse transcriptase activity was caused by nucleoside triphosphatase present in avian myeloblastosis virions and could be reversed by ADP.

To assess the role in hormone release of the recently characterized anion-sensitive Mg+2-ATPase of pituitary secretory granules, three types of evidence were accumulated. First, granule suspensions were incubated with varying quantities of MgCl2 and ATP, and the effects on ATPase activity and release were measured. The main stimulatory influence on ATPase activity was the concentration of the complex between Mg+2 and ATP (MgATP), although very high concentrations of complex inhibited. In contrast, release of hormone was nearly totally independent of MgATP. Rather, release was primarily controlled by free Mg+2, which inhibited release at concentrations as low as 0.1 mM and reduced basal release by approximately 65-75% at concentrations approximating 2.0 mM or higher. Free ATP had small consistent inhibitory effects on ATPase activity, but stimulated protein release. Second, granules were incubated with other nucleotides and related compounds. Incubation with GTP, ITP, CTP, TTP, and UTP resulted in augmentation of hormone release duplicating that seen with ATP. Some increase was also seen with the nonhydrolyzable ATP derivative 5'-adenylylimido-diphosphate, whereas adenosine was inhibitory. Since the catalytic activity of the granule ATPase demonstrates purine nucleotide substrate specificity, these results provide additional evidence for the dissociation of ATPase activity from hormone release. Third, granules were incubated with several ATPase inhibitors. Though all inhibited ATPase activity to a comparable extent, only tri-n-butyltin inhibited hormone release; oligomycin, efrapeptin, and other tin compounds were inactive. Taken together, these data indicate that the conditions that influence ATPase differ strikingly from those affecting hormone release. Whatever the role of the anion-sensitive granule membrane ATPase, we suggest that it is not involved in the process of hormone release from isolated granules.

The nucleoside triphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.15) was isolated from rat liver cytosol and purified 600-fold. The enzyme hydrolyzes all NTPs and dNTPs, splits NDPs and dNDPs at a low rate and does not destroy NMPs and dNMPs. The phosphatase consists of a single subunit with molecular weight of 65 000. The chromatin fraction of the enzyme is fully bound to the membrane, whereas the cytosol fraction contains 15-30% of the membrane-bound enzyme. Both free and membrane-bound phosphatases possess identical functional properties. The enzymatic activity has a pH-optimum of 4.0--4.5, is increased in the presence of Me2+ and is unaffected by ouabain, Triton X-100, N-ethylmaleimide, NaF or DNA, but is inhibited by NaCl, Pi and PPi. The value of Km is equal to 20 microM for TTP splitting. Since the NTP pool is essentially changed throughout the cell cycle, it is suggested that the nucleoside triphosphatase can participate in the nucleotide pool regulation.

We have studied Ca transport and the Ca-activated Mg-ATPase in plasma membrane vesicles prepared from normal human lymphocytes. Membrane vesicles that were exposed to oxalate as a Ca-trapping agent accumulated Ca in the presence of Mg2+ and ATP. ADP, AMP, GTP, UTP, ITP, TTP, or CTP did not substitute for ATP in energizing uptake. The Vmax for Ca uptake was 2.4 pmol of Ca/micrograms of protein/min, and the Km values for Ca and ATP were 1.0 and 80 microM, respectively. One microM A23187, added initially, completely inhibited net Ca uptake and, if added later, caused the release of Ca accumulated previously. Cyanide, oligomycin, ouabain, or varying Na+ or K+ concentrations had no effect on Ca uptake. A Ca-activated ATPase was present in the same membrane vesicles, which had a Vmax of 25 pmol of Pi/micrograms of protein/min at a free Ca concentration of 4-5 microM. This Ca-ATPase had Km values for Ca and ATP of 0.6 and 90 microM, respectively. These kinetic parameters were similar to those observed for uptake of Ca by the vesicles. The Ca-ATPase activity was insensitive to azide, oligomycin, ouabain, or varying Na+ or K+ concentrations. No Ca-activated hydrolysis of GTP or UTP was observed. Both Ca transport and the Ca-ATPase activity of ethylene glycol bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid-treated lymphocyte plasma membranes were stimulated 2-fold by a cytoplasmic component (calmodulin) that was purified 500-fold from lymphocyte cytoplasm. Thus, human lymphocyte plasma membranes have both a Ca transport activity and a Ca-stimulated ATPase activity with similar substrate affinities and specificities and similar sensitivities to calmodulin.

Ecto-ATPase activity of Xenopus oocytes was studied by measuring the production of inorganic phosphate (Pi) from the breakdown of extracellular ATP. Enzyme activity involved Ca2+/Mg(2+)-dependent and Ca2+/Mg(2+)-independent dephosphorylation of ATP. Ca2+/Mg(2+)-dependent ecto-ATPase was active over a limited range of 0.01-1.0 mM ATP, while Ca2+/Mg(2+)-independent ATPase activity was active over a range of 0.1-30 mM ATP. Total enzyme activity was insensitive to changes in buffer pH (pH 7.0-9.0), but increased in a relatively linear manner with: (1) time of reaction (0-90 min), (2) number of cells (1-20 oocytes), and (3) temperature (10-37 degrees C). Ecto-ATPase activity was unaffected by ouabain (100 microM), sodium azide (100 microM), and oligomycin (5 micrograms/ml) (as inhibitors of endo-ATPases) and beta-glycerophosphate (10 mM) and p-nitrophenyl phosphate (10 mM) (as inhibitors of non-specific alkaline phosphatase). Total ecto-ATPase activity was reduced significantly in defolliculated oocytes, suggesting that the enzyme was located mainly on the enveloping follicle cell layer. The range order of preferential substrates was: ATP>GTP, ITP, UTP, CTP, TTP, 2-methylthioATP>ADP, 2-methylthioADP, AMP>>alpha, beta-methylene ATP, beta, gamma-methylene ATP, in the presence of divalent ions (where G is guanosine, I is inosine, U is uridine, C is cytidine and T is ribosylthymine). The P2-purinoceptor antagonist suramin [8-(3-benzamido-4-methylbenzamido)napthalene-1,3,5-trisul phonic acid), 100 microM] significantly inhibited total ecto-ATPase activity; this inhibition was competitive for the Ca2+/Mg(2+)-dependent enzyme.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
