Normal human granulocytes obtained by Ficoll-Hypaque sedimentation were subjected to mild hypotonic shock and disruption by shear. The homogenate was fractionated by differential centrifugation and equilibrium ultracentrifugation to yield a plasma membrane preparation constituting 1% of the total cellular protein and enriched fifteen- and six-fold in alkaline phosphatase and Mg2+-adenosine triphosphatase activities, respectively. Granulocytes obtained from patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) were identically processed. The protein constituents of both the normal and CML granulocyte plasma membranes were resolved by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Comparison of the stained gels revealed CML-associated quantitative changes in four out of the fifteen protein spots examined. Thus, this analysis has permitted identification of those protein moieties that deserve attention for further isolation and purification.

Using electron microscope cytochemistry and cells separated on Ficoll-Hypaque, Mg2+-dependent ATPase, ADPase and 5'-nucleotidase were predominantly localized as ectoenzymes on normal human granulocytes. Large deposits of ATPase final reaction product and more finely granular deposits of 5'-nucleotidase final reaction product were firmly attached to the outer surface of cell plasma membranes. The final reaction product from ecto-ADPase was, however, only loosely associated with the plasma membrane. In addition, finer deposits of ADPase final reaction product were seen in specific granules and in background cytoplasm. No nucleotidase phosphatase activity was localized to the alkaline phosphatase-containing granules (phosphasomes) recently described by Rustin et al. In granulocytes from patients with chronic granulocytic leukaemia, ecto-ATPase had a patchy distribution on the plasma membranes. There was considerable heterogeneity between cells with regard to ADPase and 5'-nucleotidase localization. In some cells, ADPase was seen only at both site, while in some cells no activity was detected. 5'-Nucleotidase localization was normal in some cells but lacking from many. No correlation was found between enzyme heterogeneity and the degree of morphological cell maturity.

When purified on a sucrose gradient, basolateral membranes from dog kidney outer medulla are found to be very rich in (Na,K)-ATPase; about 50% of the membrane protein is comprised of this enzyme. (Na,K)-ATPase activity is activated 3- to 5-fold by detergent treatment, and this has been previously attributed to the impermeable vesicular nature of the membranes. Porcine trypsin inactivates only that fraction of (Na,K)-ATPase activity seen without detergent, consistent with a right-side-out orientation of membrane vesicles; the trypsin sensitivity and detergent activation of [3H]ouabain binding in the presence of Na+ + Mg2+ + ATP or Mg2+ + Pi are also consistent with this hypothesis. Using nearly isosmotic Hypaque density gradient centrifugation a population of impermeable right-side-out membrane vesicles (H1) is separated from a leaky population (H2). (Na,K)-ATPase activity in the H1 population is 20-fold activated by detergent and insensitive to porcine trypsin. The vesicle volume is 2.4 microliters/mg, and monovalent cations passively equilibrate with the intravesicular volume on a time scale of 5-30 min. Very rapid ouabain sensitive 22Na efflux from the vesicles is observed when ATP is photolytically released from intravesicular caged ATP.
