Treatment of the inner membrane matrix fraction of rat liver mitochondria with the nonionic detergent Lubrol WX solubilized about 70% of the total protein and 90% or more of the following matrix activities: malate dehydrogenase, glutamate dehydrogenase, and isocitrate dehydrogenase (NADP). The Lubrol-insoluble fraction was enriched in cytochromes, phospholipids, and a Mg(++)-stimulated ATPase activity. Less than 2% of the total mitochondrial activity of monoamine oxidase, an outer membrane marker, or adenylate kinase, an intracristal space marker could be detected in this inner membrane fraction. Electron micrographs of negatively stained preparations showed vesicles (</=0.4 micro diameter) literally saturated on the periphery with the 90 A ATPase particles. These inner membrane vesicles, which appeared for the most part to be inverted with respect to the normal inner membrane configuration in intact mitochondria, retained the succinicoxidase portion of the electron-transport chain, an intact phosphorylation site II with a high affinity for ADP, and the capacity to accumulate Ca(++). A number of biochemical properties characteristic of intact mitochondria and the inner membrane matrix fraction, however, were either absent or markedly deficient in the inner membrane vesicles. These included stimulation of respiration by either ADP or 2,4-dinitrophenol, oligomycin-sensitive ADP-ATP exchange activity, atractyloside sensitivity of adenine nucleotide requiring reactions, and a stimulation of the Mg(++)-ATPase by 2,4-dinitrophenol.

The changes in fluorescence of 1-anilino-8-naphthalenesulfonate (ANS-) have been used to determine binding of ligands to the (Ca2+, Mg2+)-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles, isolated from rabbit skeletal muscle. ANS- binds to sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes with an apparent Kd of 3.8 X 10(-5) M. The binding of ANS- had no effect on Ca2+ transport or Ca2+-dependent ATPase activity. EGTA, by binding endogenous Ca2+, increased the fluorescence intensity of bound ANS- by 10-12%. Subsequent addition of ATP, ADP, or Ca2+, in the presence or absence of Mg2+, reversed this change of fluorescence. The binding parameters, as determined by these decreases in fluorescence intensity, were as follows: for ATP, Kd = 1.0 X 10(-5) M, nH = 0.80; for ADP, Kd = 1.2 X 10(-5) M, nH = 0.89; and for Ca2+, Kd = 3.4 X 10(-7) M, nH = 1.8. The binding parameters for ITP and for the nonhydrolyzable analogue, adenyl-5'-yl-beta, gamma-methylene)diphosphate, were similar to those of ATP, but GDP, IDP, CDP, AMP, and cAMP had lower apparent affinities. Millimolar concentrations of pyrophosphate also decreased the fluorescence of bound ANS-, whereas orthophosphate caused a small (2-3%) increase in fluorescence in Ca2+-free media. Vanadate, in the presence of EGTA, decreased the fluorescence of bound ANS-with half-maximal effect at 4 X 10(-5) M. The changes of fluorescence intensity of bound ANS- appear to reflect conformational changes of the (Ca2+, Mg2+)-ATPase, consequent to ligand binding, with the low and high fluorescence intensity species corresponding to the E1 and E2 conformations, respectively. These appear to reflect similar conformational states of the (Ca2+, Mg2+)-ATPase to those reported by changes in intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence (DuPont, Y. (1976) Biochem, Biophys. Res. Commun. 71, 544-550).

Aldosterone-dependent changes in citrate synthase (CS) activity have been used as an index of mineralocorticoid target sites. However, adrenalectomy (ADX) resulted in a fall in activity of CS and several other enzymes in rabbit heart, a tissue with glucocorticoid-but not mineralocorticoid-specific receptors. The enzymes included CS (2.03-1.36 U/mg protein, normal----ADX, P less than 0.001), isocitrate dehydrogenase-NADP+ (1.10-0.80 U/mg, P less than 0.002), isocitrate dehydrogenase-NAD+ (0.034-0.020 U/mg, P less than 0.01), and hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA lyase (0.072 to 0.035 U/mg, P less than 0.001); in contrast, mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase levels were not significantly reduced by adrenal loss. There was also a decrease after surgery in sarcolemmal Na-K-(17.30-12.31 mumol Pi . mg protein-1 . h-1, P less than 0.002) and Mg-ATPase activities (14.16-12.11 mumol Pi . mg protein-1 . h-1, P less than 0.05). However, ADX did not result in a significant change in heart weight per kilogram body weight or recovery of mitochondrial protein per gram heart. CS was also assayed in hearts from ADX animals following acute (90 min) and chronic (3 day) steroid replacement. Although neither acute intravenous aldosterone (10 micrograms/kg) nor dexamethasone (100 micrograms/kg) increased activity, exposure to multiple subcutaneous injections of either steroid over a 3-day period significantly elevated CS above ADX values. The coordinate changes in the levels of several myocardial enzymes associated with energy metabolism is discussed in terms of an adaptation to chronic alterations in energy demands as opposed to specific mineralocorticoid or glucocorticoid receptor-mediated processes.

A soluble Mg-dependent ATPase, similar to the mitochondrial ATPase from beef heart, has been isolated from heart mitochondria of salmon (Salmo salar). The salmon heart ATPase has 5 subunits with molecular weights similar to the beef heart enzyme, but the Stoke's radius of the intact salmon enzyme is larger. The salmon heart ATPase is less temperature labile than the beef heart enzyme. The salmon heart ATPase is strongly inhibited by ADP, and the inhibition is highly temperature dependent. The ITPase activity is also inhibited by IDP (Ki = 180 micron). 2,4-Dinitrophenol in small concentrations stimulates the ITPase activity as well as the ATPase activity of the "washed" salmon heart enzyme. However, in an enzyme preparation which had been freed of most of the bound nucleotides by dialysis in the presence of glycerol (Roveri et al., 1980) the ITPase activity is not stimulated by 2,4-dinitrophenol.

A histochemical study of the metabolism of rat renal arteries and arterioles. Rat renal arteries and arterioles were examined histochemically to determine their metabolic profiles. Succinate, malate and NAD-isocitrate dehydrogenase, cytochrome oxidase and ubiquinone were assessed to determine aerobic metabolism. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and DPN diaphorase were evaluated to determine hexose-monophosphate-shunt activity. Anaerobic metabolism was evaluated via lactate dehydrogenase, and the substrate, glycogen. Gomori's lipase, beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase and amounts of neutral fat and free fatty acids were assessed as indicators of lipid utilization. Myosin ATPase activity was evaluated as an index of ATP utilization for contraction. Deoxyribonucleic and ribonucleic acids were appraised as indicators of protein synthesis. In general, the oxidative enzymes and myosin ATPase demonstrate considerable activity in renal arteries and arterioles which suggests aerobic metabolism and ATP usage. Renal arteries and arterioles also appear capable of anaerobic metabolism as indicated by strong lactate dehydrogenase reactivity and by the presence of slight to moderate quantities of glycogen, while high levels of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and moderate amounts of deoxyribonucleic acid suggest a potential for beta-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase, minimal lipase activity, and the absence of fatty acids with substantial amounts of neutral fat, indicate limited lipid catabolism.

The effects of zinc on the enzymes of hepatic mitochondria were investigated in rats that had been given zinc sulfate (10 mg Zn2+/100 g body wt) p.o. Administration of zinc caused a marked elevation of succinate dehydrogenase, glutamate dehydrogenase, cytochrome c oxidase and ATPase activities, whereas it did not cause significant changes in pyruvate carboxylase, malate dehydrogenase and isocitrate dehydrogenase activities. The effect of zinc as a function of time was greatest on succinate dehydrogenase. Zinc also produced a marked elevation of ATP concentration in the hepatic cytosol and a corresponding increase in ATPase activity in the hepatic mitochondria. Zinc content of the inner membrane of mitochondria was raised significantly by administration of zinc. The removal of zinc by washing in 10 mM EDTA caused a significant decrease of the increased succinate dehydrogenase activity caused by administration of zinc, while it did not lower ATPase activity. The addition of zinc in amounts of 10-10(3) ng Zn2+ per mg protein produced a significant increase in succinate dehydrogenase activity in the inner membrane of mitochondria, whereas ATPase activity was elevated significantly at 10(3)-10(4) ng Zn2+ per mg protein, indicating that zinc activated succinate dehydrogenase more sensitively than ATPase. The present investigation suggests that zinc taken up by hepatic mitochondria stimulates the electron transport system and oxidative phosphorylation and, as a result, increases the ATP concentration in the hepatic cytosol.

A mathematical model was used to study the role of various allosteric regulatory mechanisms in the oxidation of glucose and fatty acids by muscle energy metabolism. A large number of such mechanisms were shown to be involved in simultaneous oxidation of both substrates: glycolysis is regulated by the ATP/ADP ratio at the phosphofructokinase (PFK) step; the control over pyruvate dehydrogenase is exercised by the NADHm/NADm+ and CoAsAc/CoAsH ratios as well as by the level of pyruvate; the Krebs cycle is regulated by oxaloacetate and citrate concentrations in the citrate synthase reaction and by the ATP/ADP and NADHm/NADm+ ratios in the isocitrate dehydrogenase reaction. The inhibition of PFK and pyruvate dehydrogenase by excess of CoAsAcyl as well as the inhibition of PFK by citrate are additional equivalent regulatory mechanisms. When glucose alone is oxidized, the levels of citrate, CoAsAcyl, NADHm and CoAsAc decrease drastically within the whole range of physiological ATPase loads; the only regulating factors that remain efficient are the ATP/ADP ratio in glycolysis, the level of pyruvate at the pyruvate dehydrogenase step, the ATP/ADP ratio and the levels of CoAsAc, oxaloacetate and isocitrate in the Krebs cycle.

The active site of the myosin subfragment-1 ATPase was affinity-labeled with ribose-modified fluorescent analogs of ADP, dADP, CDP, UDP, IDP, and GDP in combination with vanadate, forming a stable myosin-nucleoside diphosphate-vanadate complex that is analogous to the normal myosin-ADP-Pi intermediate [Hiratsuka, T. (1984) J. Biochem. 96, 147-154]. Labeled enzyme was isolated free of unbound analog and vanadate, and fluorescent properties of the fluorophore at the active site were examined. Fluorescence emission and acrylamide quenching studies revealed that the hydrophobicity of environment around the fluorophore and the degree of its burial in the protein vary with the base structure of NDP. It was found that the fluorophore of ADP analog is most buried into the protein, while that of the GDP analog is least buried. The results suggest that the deep burial of ATP into the myosin active site is essential for muscle contraction.

The microsomal fraction (13 000 -60 000 x g pellet) from pea stem shows a very high divalent cation-dependent, diethylstilbestrol- and orthovanadate-inhibited ATPase and ADPase activity. No detectable inorganic or organic pyrophosphatase and adenylate kinase and almost negligible activities of mitochondrial ATPase and of other phosphomonoesterases are present in this preparation. The ATPase and ADPase activities of microsomes have been solubilized with NaClO4 and then purified by gel filtration and DEAE-Sephadex fractionation to a final specific activity of 71.5 and 102 mumol Pi/min per mg for ATP and ADP, respectively. The purified enzyme hydrolyzes triphosphonucleosides (ATP, CTP, GTP, UTP) and diphosphonucleosides (ADP and to a lesser extent CDP, UDP, IDP) and presents pH optima of 6 for ATP and 7 for ADP. It requires Mg2+, Mn2+ or Ca2+ and is inhibited by diethylstilbestrol and orthovanadate. The conclusion that the ATPase and ADPase activities belong to the same enzyme is based on the following results: (1) parallel effects of diethylstilbestrol and orthovanadate on both ATPase and ADPase; (2) parallel behavior of ATPase and ADPase throughout all the purification steps; (3) non-additivity of ATPase and ADPase and (4) lack of dilution of beta-32P formed from [beta-32P]-ATP by unlabelled ADP.

Conditions are described for the preparation of permeabilized cells of Candida albicans. This method has been used for the in situ assay of enzymes in both yeast cells and germ-tube forming cells. A mixture of toluene/ethanol/Triton X-100 (1:4:0.2, by vol.) at 15% (v/v) and 8% (v/v) was optimal for the in situ assay of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase in yeast and germ-tube forming cells, respectively. The concentration of toluene/ethanol/Triton X-100 required for optimal in situ activity of other enzymes was influenced by the cellular location of the enzyme, growth phase and morphology. The membrane-bound enzymes (chitin synthase, glucan synthase, ATPase), cytosolic enzymes (glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, isocitrate dehydrogenase, pyruvate kinase, phosphofructokinase, alkaline phosphatase, glucosamine-6-phosphate deaminase and N-acetylglucosamine kinase) and wall enzymes (beta-glucosidase and acid phosphatase) were measured and compared to the activity obtained in cell extracts. The pattern of enzyme induction and the properties of the allosteric enzymes phosphofructokinase and pyruvate kinase were measured in situ. Pyruvate kinase in situ was homotropic for phosphoenolpyruvate with a Hill coefficient of 1.9 and a S0.5 of 0.6 mM, whereas in cell extracts, it had a Hill coefficient of 1.9 and a S0.5 of 1.0 mM. The Km for ATP was 1.6 mM in cell extracts and 1.8 mM in permeabilized cells. In situ phosphofructokinase was homotropic for fructose 6-phosphate (S0.5 of 2.3 mM, Hill coefficient of 4.0). The kinetic properties of pyruvate kinase and phosphofructokinase measured in situ or in vitro were similar for both yeast cells and germ-tube forming cells.
