The uptake of proline and glutamine by cytochrome-deficient cells of Escherichia coli SASX76 grown aerobically on glucose or anaerobically on pyruvate was stimulated by these two substrates. Pyruvate could not stimulate transport in the glucose-grown cells. Uptake of these amino acids energized by glucose was inhibited by inhibitors of the Ca2+, Mg2+-stimulated ATPase such as DCCD, pyrophosphate, and azide, and by the uncouplers CCCP and 2,4-dinitrophenol. Glycerol (or glycerol 3-phosphate) in the presence of fumarate stimulated the transport of proline and glutamine under anaerobic conditions in cytochrome-deficient cells but not in membrane vesicles prepared from these cells although glycerol 3-phosphate-fumarate oxidoreductase activity could be demonstrated in the vesicle preparation. In contrast, in vesicles prepared from cytochrome-containing cells of E. coli SASX76 amino acid transport was energized under anaerobic conditions by this system. Inhibitors of the Ca2+, Mg2+-activated ATPase and uncoupling agents inhibited the uptake of proline and glutamine in cytochrome-deficient cells dependent on the glycerol-fumarate oxidoreductase system. Ferricyanide could replace fumarate as an electron acceptor to permit transport of phenylalanine in cytochrome-deficient or cytochrome-containing cells under anaerobic conditions. It is concluded that in cytochrome-deficient cells using glucose, pyruvate, or glycerol in the presence of fumarate, transport of both proline and glutamine under under anaerobic conditions is energized by ATP through the Ca2+, Mg2+-activated ATPase. In cytochrome-containing cells under anaerobic conditions electron transfer between glycerol and fumarate can also drive transport of these amino acids.

The Arrhenius plots for the membrane-bound ATPase and its soluble form purified from Micrococcus lysodeikticus, presented discontinuities near 30 degrees C at pH 7.5. Glycerol-containing lipids were not responsible for these discontinuities. The values of the enthalpies of activation were 12 (soluble) and 22 (membrane-bound) kcal/mol (50.2 and 92.0 kJ/mol) above 30 degrees C and 42 (soluble) and 29 (membrane-bound) kcal/mol (175.7 and 121.3 kJ/mol) below that temperature. The results suggested that both molecular forms of the ATPase were able to adopt at least two different structures, above and below the critical temperature. Of the two, only the high-temperature structure seemed to be enzymically active. In the case of lipid-dependent ATPases, such as the Escherichia coli enzyme, the transition between both enzyme structures probably occurred with simultaneous "melting" of their lipid microenvironment.

Glycerol-extracted cilia from Tetrahymena pyriformis were demembranated by treatment with Triton X-100 and then heated for up to 30 min at temperatures between 34-38 degrees C. Heat treatment caused an uncoupling of the ATPase from motility as indicated by an increase in ATPase activity and a loss of pellet height response. After heat treatment, the ATPase activity of the dynein in situ differed from that in unheated cilia as shown by an increased sensitivity to a lower temperature of assay (0 degrees C) and by a loss of the activation normally observed upon reaction with N-ethylmaleimide or p-phenylenedimaleimide. Upon extraction of the heat-treated cilia by Tris-EDTA, there was a large loss in ATPase activity so that the heat-treated cilia yielded a crude dynein fraction with a lower specific activity compared with that obtained from unheated controls. The difference was not due to a change in the amount of protein recovered or in the amount of ATPase activity which remained unextracted. Resolution of the crude dynein by sucrose density sedimentation indicated that activity was lost from both the 14S and 30S peaks but more so from the latter than from the former. Thus dynein in situ in cilia in which the ATPase has been uncoupled from motility by gentle heat treatment differs in several important respects from dynein inside unheated cilia.

1. Preincubation of MgATP submitochondrial particles with EDTA or Tris.HCl liberated a measurable amount of ATPase inhibitor that could be rapidly purified using only trichloroacetic acid precipitation and heat treatment. 2. In spite of the emergence of high ATPase activity, a considerable amount of ATPase inhibitor was left in the particles. Comparative analysis of other submitochondrial preparations indicated that only AS-particles were effectively depleted. 3. The high ATPase activity of inhibitor-deficient particles, was labile at low temperature provided that the exposure to cold was done in the presence of MgATP. Other nucleotides could not substitute for ATP. Glycerol inhibited and salts enhanced the cold inactivation of membrane-bound F1-ATPase. Isolation of F1-ATPase from cold-inactivated particles yielded a soluble preparation of correspondingly lower activity. 4. It is concluded that together with the increase of ATPase activity, the ATP-dependent cold lability of membrane-bound F1-ATPase and the dislocation of ATPase inhibitor at non operative sites reveal the extent of ATPase complex disorganization.

Glycerol-treated muscle fiber bundles were fixed at their rest length in 50 mM KC1, 2 mM MgC1(2), and 10 micron CaC1(2) at pH 7.8 and 0 degrees C in the presence of sufficient amounts of ATP, creatine kinase, and creatine phosphate. The fiber bundles were stretched linearly with time for 0.3 s at a constant amplitude, suddenly released, then fixed at the rest length for a constant time interval (alpha seconds). The stretch-release cycle was repeated, and the ATPase activity (the rate of ADP liberation) [EC 3.6.1.3] was measured. It was found that: 1. ATPase was activated by repeated stretch-release. As repetitive stretch-release of 1--2% of the rest length caused maximum activation, we usually selected a value of 2.5% of the rest length. The activation of ATPase was found to be a function of the duration, alpha, of the isometric phase after sudden release from stretching. The ATPase activity of fiber bundles was almost unaffected when they were oscillated by a simple stretch-release without an isometric phase after the sudden release (alpha=0). 2. The ATPase activity of oscillated muscle fibers increased with increase in the value of alpha, reached a maximal level, then decreased gradually with further increase of alpha to a value slightly larger than that of static fibers. At 0 degrees C, the value of alpha for the maximum activation was observed at about 2 s, and the maximum activity was about 2.5 times that of static fibers. At 20 degrees C, the alpha value for maximum activation was about 0.5 s, and the maximum activity was about 1.8 times that of static fibers. 3. The time course of ADP liberation after one stretch-release cycle could be easily calculated from the ATPase activity of the summed durations of the isometric phase, alpha, assuming that the ATPase activation was turned off and on by the stretching and release, respectively, and that the state of cross-bridges immediately after the stretch-release was independent of alpha of the cycle. The rate of ADP liberation after stretch-release thus obtained showed a short lag phase, a sigmoidal increase, a decrease to almost zero, then a return to nearly the original level (the rate of static fibers). About 1.3 mol of ATP per mol of myosin was hydrolyzed at both 0 degrees C and 20 degrees C during one cycle of the changes in the rate of ADP liberation.

The release of lipoteichoic acid and mesosomal vesicles to the supernatant buffer during the formation of spherical, osmotically fragile bodies was studied using Streptococcus faecalis ATCC 9790. Autolytic N-acetylmuramidase action was permitted to take place in exponential-phase cells incubated in a buffer which provides an exceptional degree of osmotic stabilization. Both lipoteichoic acid and mesosomal vesicles were relatively rapidly released to the supernatant buffer. Most of the cellular content of lipoteichoic acid (and mesosomal vesicles) was found in the supernatant buffer at incubation times when the cells still retained over 75% of their cell wall. [14-C]- or [3-H]glycerol was used as a label for both cellular lipoteichoic acids and lipid-glycerol. Glycerol in lipoteichoic acid was quantitated after phenol-water and chloroform-methanol treatments and identified by products of acid hydrolysis and its ability to be precipitated by (i) antibodies specific for the polyglycerol-phosphate backbone, (ii) antibodies to the streptococcal group D antigen, and (iii) concanavalin A. Evidence was obtained that lipoteichoic acid was not associated with isolated mesosomal vesicles. Centrifugation of supernates at 200,000 X g sedimented membranous (mesosomal) vesicles and nearly all of the lipid-glycerol present, whereas essentially all of the lipoteichoic acid remained in the supernatant. The sedimented mesosomal vesicles differed from protoplast membrane in their higher lipid-phosphorus to protein ratio and in the absence of detectable levels of two enzymatic activities found in protoplast membranes, adenosine triphosphatase and polynucleotide phosphorylase. Both types of membranes were found to contain DD-carboxypeptidase and LD-transpeptidase activities at nearly the same specific activities. No evidence was obtained for the association of autolytic N-acetylmuramidase activity with either type of membrane preparation.

Glycerol (50%, w/w) was found to cause blistering of chick primary myoblast and fibroblast plasma membranes and extensive blistering of 5--6-day-old-myotube plasma plasma membranes in tissue culture. The tips of myoblasts and fibroblasts appeared to be the most sensitive portion of the plasma membrane to the blistering effect of glycerol. The glycerol-induced blistering of myotubes was reduced and delayed by brief EDTA pretreatment. Glycerol treatment (50, 15 and 8% sequentially) of myotubes was used to remove plasma membrane blisters and a plasma membrane-enriched fraction was isolated from these blisters using a modified Dextran T500-polyethylene-glycol 6000 aqueous two-phase polymer system. This fraction was found to be enriched 4.1-fold for 5'-nucleotidase activity, but not for other putative plasma membrane markers, (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity or alpha-[125I]bungarotoxin binding material. Autoradiographs of alpha-[125I]bungarotoxin, glycerol-treated (50%, w/w) myotubes showed the plasma membrane blisters to be devoid of reduced silver grains. 5'-Nucleotidase was shown to be an ectoenzyme on myoblasts and 5-day-old myotubes and the total cellular activity was present on the cell surface. During the period of myoblast fusion and myotube formation, cell surface activity decreased to a low level while total cellular activity was elevated.

The coated vesicle (H+)-ATPase is composed of two domains, a peripheral V1 domain containing the 73 (A subunit)-, 58 (B subunit)-, 40-, 34-, and 33-kDa subunits and an integral V0 domain containing the 100-, 38-, 19-, and 17 (c subunit)-kDa subunits (Adachi, I., Puopolo, K., Marquez-Sterling, N., Arai, H., and Forgac, M. (1990) J. Biol. Chem. 265, 967-973). In the present manuscript we characterize the V0 domain with respect to its structural and activity properties. Glycerol density gradient separation of solubilized coated vesicle membrane proteins reveals the presence of an excess of V0 domains which migrate with a molecular weight of 250,000 and contain the V0 polypeptides in the same stoichiometry as in the intact V1V0 complex. Like the c subunit in V1V0, the c subunit of the free V0 domain is labeled by [14C]N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD) and is extracted by chloroform:methanol. In addition, a monoclonal antibody specific for the 100-kDa subunit of the intact (H+)-ATPase recognizes the 100-kDa subunit of V0. Tryptic cleavage of the V0 complex gives the same pattern of fragments for the 100- and 38-kDa subunits as in the intact complex, but with an increase in sensitivity, suggesting greater exposure of these subunits in free V0. Proton conduction was measured in reconstituted vesicles containing the V0 domain and in native vesicles stripped of V1. No DCCD-inhibitable proton conduction was observed in either preparation, suggesting that unlike the corresponding F0 domain of F1F0, the free V0 domain is not an open proton channel.

The Ca(2+)-ATPase crystals formed in detergent solubilized sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) at 2 degrees C in a crystallization medium of 0.1 M KCl, 10 mM K-Mops (pH 6.0), 3 mM MgCl2, 3 mM NaN3, 5 mM DTT, 25 IU/ml Trasylol, 2 micrograms/ml 1,6-di-tert-butyl-p-cresol, 20% glycerol and 20 mM CaCl2 (J. Biol. Chem. 263, 5277 and 5287 (1988)) contain highly ordered sheets of ATPase molecules, that associate into large multilamellar stacks (greater than 100 layers). When the crystallization is performed in the same medium but in the presence of 40% glycerol at low temperature the stacking is reduced to 4-5 layers and the average diameter of the crystalline sheets is increased from less than 1 micron to 2-3 microns. Glycerol and low temperature presumably reduce stacking by interfering with the interactions between the hydrophilic headgroups of Ca(2+)-ATPase molecules in adjacent lamellae, while not affecting or promoting the ordering of ATPase molecules within the individual sheets. Electron diffraction patterns could be regularly obtained at 8 A and occasionally at 7 A resolution on crystals formed in 40% glycerol, either at 2 degrees C or at -70 degrees C. In the same media but in the absence of glycerol, polyethyleneglycol 1450, 3000 and 8000 (1-8%) induced the formation of ordered crystalline arrays containing 10-12 layers that were similar to those obtained in 40% glycerol. Replacement of 40% glycerol with 10-50% glucose or supplementation of the standard crystallization medium with polyethyleneglycol (PEG 3000 or 8000; 1, 2, 5 and 8%) had no beneficial effect on the order of crystalline arrays compared with media containing 40% glycerol.

A single-stranded DNA-dependent ATPase that cofractionates during the early stages of purification of a multiprotein DNA polymerase alpha complex from HeLa cells has been purified to homogeneity. The ATPase is part of a 16S multienzyme DNA polymerase alpha complex that is fully active in SV40 DNA replication in vitro. The ATPase hydrolyzes ATP to ADP in a reaction that is completely dependent on the presence of DNA. DNA in single-stranded form is strongly preferred as a cofactor, and polydeoxynucleotides with adenine or thymidine residues are highly effective. Glycerol gradient sedimentation showed that the purified ATPase sedimented at an s20,w of 7 S, and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under denaturing conditions reveals two polypeptides with relative molecular weights of 83,000 and 68,000. Both of these polypeptides have purine nucleotide binding sites as revealed by photoaffinity cross-linking experiments. ATP binds to the two subunits more efficiently than GTP, and CTP or UTP does not cross-link with the two polypeptides. DNA synthesis catalyzed by purified HeLa cell DNA polymerase alpha-primase is stimulated in the presence of ATPase and ATP at an optimum concentration of 2 mM. Analysis of the DNA product by gel electrophoresis indicates that with poly(dT) but not phage M13 DNA as template the ATPase overcomes a lag and decreases the length of nascent DNA chains synthesized by the DNA polymerase alpha-primase complex.
