In the process of defining the recruitment of fuel and pathway selection in rainbow trout fast-twitch white skeletal muscle, it was clear that the near-maximal myosin adenosinetriphosphatase activity during a 10-s sprint was supported solely by phosphocreatine hydrolysis. A conservative estimate of the ATP turnover was 188 mumol X g wet wt-1 X min-1. It was not until the rate and force of contraction decreased that the relative contribution of anaerobic glycogenolysis became increasingly important. Over a 10-min period of burst swimming at approximately 120% of maximum aerobic steady-state swimming velocity of trout determined in a Brett-type swim tunnel, fatigue was associated with the near-depletion of glycogen in white muscle. The ATP turnover supported by anaerobic glycogenolysis was 78 mumol X g wet wt-1 X min-1. The glycolytic pathway appeared functional at this time with control sites being identified at hexokinase and phosphofructokinase (PFK-1). PFK-1 did not appear to be inhibited by low muscle pH (pH 6.66). In another exercise protocol lasting 30 min, complete exhaustion was related to glycogen depletion. The sum of all glycolytic intermediates from glucose 6-phosphate to pyruvate at exhaustion decreased by a dramatic 80% compared with the 25% decrease for the 10-min fatigue swimming protocol. This large depletion of glycolytic intermediates was accompanied by an 80% fall in ATP, a 70-80% reduction in the ATP/ADP and phosphorylation potential, and a 2.5-fold increase in the NAD/NADH. Associated with these changes was a marked displacement of the phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK), and the combined glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase-PGK reactions from thermodynamic equilibrium. As a general conclusion, fatigue and exhaustion should be viewed as a multicomponent biochemical process in response to low glycogen and not leveled at one particular step of the glycolytic pathway.

Exposure of red cells to fluoride produces a variety of metabolic alterations, most of which are based upon the secondary effects of enolase inhibition, which reduces pyruvate synthesis and interferes with the regeneration of diphosphopyridine nucleotide (NAD). Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is consumed in the hexokinase and phosphofructokinase reactions but is not regenerated since the deficiency of NAD limits glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase. ATP depletion in the presence of fluoride and calcium induces a massive loss of cations and water. Of the other known sites of ATP utilization, membrane-bound ATPase is inhibited by fluoride, but the incorporation of fatty acids into membrane phospholipids is unaffected until ATP is depleted. The addition of methylene blue to fluoride-treated red cells regenerates NAD, permitting triose oxidation and the generation of 3-phosphoglycerate and 2,3-diphosphoglycerate. Enolase inhibition is then partially overcome by mass action, and sufficient glycolysis proceeds to maintain the concentration of ATP. This in turn prevents the massive cation and water loss, and permits membrane phospholipid renewal to proceed. Membrane ATPase activity is not restored by the oxidant so that normal cation leakage remains unopposed by cation pumping in red cells exposed to the combination of fluoride and methylene blue.

The rate coefficient for (22)Na release from previously labeled human erythrocytes was determined in the presence of 0.1-10 mM sodium fluoride (F). The oxidized nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD(+)) level at the end of 2 hr of incubation in tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (Tris)-Ringer medium was also measured. Both parameters decreased proportionately as F concentration was raised. Both F-induced changes were immediate and were reversed by 10 mM pyruvate. The decrease in NAD(+) concentration following enolase inhibition by F is attributed to a diminished rate of formation in the reaction catalyzed by lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) with undiminished continued utilization in the reaction catalyzed by glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH). It is postulated that the NAD(+) lowering limited the GAPDH step, resulting in proportionate decreases in the rates of phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) and Na,K-dependent adenosine triphosphatase (Na,K-ATPase), a reaction sequence thought to link glycolysis with active Na extrusion. Adding pyruvate with F increased NAD(+) production at the LDH step, thus reactivating GAPDH, PGK, and Na,K-ATPase and leading to the observed restoration of (22)Na release. The results suggest, therefore, that F inhibits active Na transport in intact human erythrocytes indirectly through a lowering of NAD(+), although, direct inhibition of the Na,K-ATPase by F may possibly occur simultaneously.

The sulfenic acid form of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.12), which is an acyl phosphatase, will catalyze an acetyl phosphate-Pi exchange reaction. This exchange reaction is reversibly inhibited by the uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation, 2,4-dinitrophenol, m-Cl carbonylcyanide-phenylhydrazone, pentachlorophenol, and 5-chloro-3-tert-butyl-2'-chloro-4'-nitrosalicylanalide, and is irreversibly inhibited by cyanide and dicumarol. An ATP-Pi exchange reaction similar to that catalyzed by mitochondria can be simulated by a system composed of oxidized glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, phosphoglycerate kinase (EC 2.7.1.28), 3-phosphoglycerate, ATP, (32)Pi, and appropriate cofactors. The ATP-Pi exchange is inhibited by uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation. Higher concentrations of uncouplers will also inhibit the ATPase reaction catalyzed by the coupled enzyme system. The exchange reactions catalyzed by the sulfenic acid form of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate are consistent with a sulfenyl carboxylate intermediate. On the basis of these observations, a reaction scheme has been postulated for covalent coupling in oxidative phosphorylation that includes a sulfenyl carboxylate as a nonphosphorylated, high energy intermediate and an acyl phosphate as a phosphorylated, high energy intermediate.

Phosphorus-31 saturation transfer NMR techniques have been employed to measure the unidirectional Pi consumption rate by respiration competent suspensions of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae while the levels of ATP, ADP, and Pi are constant. These experiments are performed by saturating the ATP gamma phosphate resonance and observing the changes in the Pi resonance intensity while the yeast are respiring on endogenous substrates. The unidirectional Pi consumption rate is 3.5 +/- mumol s-1 (g of wet cells)-1. The rate is reduced 10-fold upon addition of oligomycin (80 micrograms/ML), suggesting that at least 90% of the Pi consumption activity is due to the mitochondrial F1-F0 ATPase. We have not been able to conclusively assign the remaining 10%. When the yeast are glycolyzing anaerobically, the unidirectional Pi consumption rate was 1.0 +/- 0.2 mumol s-1 (g of wet cells)-1. At most, 80% of this is due to Pi consumption by the glycolytic enzyme glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase leaving a residual activity of at least 0.2 mumol s-1 (g of wet cells)-1. Thus the activity in the oligomycin-inhibited cells under respiratory conditions and the nonglycolytic activity in anaerobic cells are equal to within the experimental errors. Furthermore the unidirectional rate of Pi consumption during anaerobic glycolysis is insensitive to oligomycin. These data suggest that the mitochondrial adenosinetriphosphatase is not turning over during anaerobic glycolysis. Possible explanations for this inhibition are discussed.

Damage to the plasma membrane of rabbit epididymal spermatozoa during spontaneous lipid peroxidation was examined by means of trypan blue uptake and expression of activity of the intracellular enzymes, lactate dehydrogenase and pyruvate kinase. Both the dye uptake and the expression of enzyme activity probe cell damage from lipid peroxidation as loss of integrity of the plasma membrane. A linear correlation was obtained between trypan blue staining of the cells and malondialdehyde production, a quantifiable measure of the extent of lipid peroxidation. At the point of trypan blue staining of all cells, 0.5 nmol malondialdehyde/10(8) cells was produced. This is the same amount produced at the point of complete loss of motility and superoxide dismutase activity. We have defined this as the "lipoperoxidative lethal end point." Expression of lactate dehydrogenase and pyruvate kinase activities increased with time of aerobic incubation. In the high Na+ medium, NTP, in which lipid peroxidation is slow, there is a linear correlation between increase in expressed enzyme activities and malondialdehyde production. But in the high K+ medium, KTP, in which lipid peroxidation is rapid, there is an initial rapid rise in expressed enzyme activity over 3 h, followed by a slower increase. Activities of rabbit sperm lactate dehydrogenase, pyruvate kinase, and flagellar ATPase were unaffected by aerobic incubations for up to 48 h, double the incubation period used for the assay of enzymatic activities for the first two. The activity of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase decreased during aerobic incubation, the time course matching the loss of motility. The subcellular distribution of lactate dehydrogenase in rabbit spermatozoa was determined: 4% in the mitochondrial matrix, 10% in the plasma membrane and 85% in the cytosolic compartment.

This study is designed to examine the participation of the major red cell membrane protein, band 3 protein, in the chain which transmits information from the cardiac glycoside site on the external face of the cell (Na+ + K+)-ATPase to the megadalton glycolytic enzyme complex within the cell. The experiments show that the anion transport inhibitor, 4,4'-diisothiocyano-2,2'-stilbenedisulfonic acid, affects the resonance of 2,3-diphosphoglycerate, as does the cardiac glycoside cation transport inhibitor, ouabain. Resonance shifts induced by the cardiac glycoside alone are modulated by addition of the anion transport inhibitor which indicates that there is coupling in the red cell between the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase and band 3 protein. Band 3 protein was separated from the membrane and partially purified following the technique of Yu and Steck ((1975) J. Biol. Chem. 250, 9170-9175). When glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase was added to the separated band 3 protein preparation, addition of cardiac glycosides caused shifts in the 31P resonance of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. These experiments indicate that there is coupling between the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase and band 3 protein in the separated preparation and suggest that the anion and cation transport systems may be closely related spatially and functionally in the intact red cell.

By double isotope pulse-labeling of yeast cells, we determined the kinetics of labeling at 9 degrees C of total mitochondrial membrane, mitochondrial matrix, and cytosolic proteins, the alpha, beta, and gamma subunits of F1 ATPase, and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. We find that none of the mitochondrial proteins show a lag in the incorporation of label compared to cytosolic proteins. These results argue against the existence in the cytosol of large pools of mitochondrial proteins awaiting transport into the organelle. Cycloheximide addition during the pulse stops [35S]methionine incorporation into mitochondrial membrane and cytosolic proteins rapidly (approximately 1 min) and with identical kinetics. Compared to cytosolic protein, however, there is a persistent incorporation of label into mitochondria after a chase with cold methionine (t1/2 approximately 1.5 min at 9 degrees C) which cannot be accounted for solely by chain completion. We conclude that this continued incorporation reflects some transport process in addition to a completion of a round of translation. When cells are labeled during a synchronous "restart" of protein synthesis, where ribosome run-off from mRNA was first induced either by incubating cells for 4 h at 0 degrees C or by treatment with 5 mM aurintricarboxylic acid, the initial rate of incorporation of label into mitochondrial protein now lags behind that of cytosolic proteins. From these results and those in the accompanying report (Ades, I.Z., and Butow, R.A. (1980) J. Biol. Chem. 255, 9918-9924) we propose that the translation of mRNA specific for mitochondrial proteins takes place in the cytoplasm and that at least a portion of the polysomes are then transported and bind to the outer mitochondrial membrane, followed by completion of translation and transfer of the newly synthesized polypeptides into the mitochondria. From a consideration of all of the available data on protein transport into mitochondria in yeast, we conclude that cytoplasmic polysomes bound to the outer mitochondrial membrane function in the transport of proteins into mitochondria by a process not necessarily mutually exclusive of post-translational transport.

Fibre characteristics and enzyme activities were determined for the gluteus, semitendinosus, vastus lateralis and triceps brachii muscles of 55 Standardbred trotters of different ages. Four fibre types (I, IIA, IIB, IIC) were demonstrated by histochemical staining of myofibrillar adenosine triphosphatase after preincubation at different pH values. Type II fibres predominated in all the muscles and the type IIA/IIB ratio was higher in horses over 5 years than in younger horses, except in the vastus in which the IIA/IIB ratio did not change with age. The vastus had the highest proportion of type IIA fibres and the semitendinosus the highest proportion of type IIB fibres. Histochemical demonstration of NADH dehydrogenase disclosed that almost 100 per cent of the type IIA and many of the type I and IIB fibres were medium-stained; the remaining type I fibres were darkly stained and the type IIB fibres lightly stained. In older horses more fibres were stained for NADH dehydrogenase. The activity of triosephosphate dehydrogenase decreased that that of 3-hydroxy-acyl-coA dehydrogenase and citrate synthase increased in all the muscles except the vastus with increasing age. The greatest increase in oxidative capacity occurred in the gluteus and triceps. Training, rather than age, was regarded as the factor inducing these changes. The results emphasise that histochemical data are only semiquantitative, and there are apparent discrepancies in the intensities of histochemical staining and the biochemical evaluation of various enzymes.

The isoform composition and types of functioning of Na+,K(+)-ATPase complexes, as well as their ouabain-inhibition constants, were studied for calf brain membranes. The catalytic subunit alpha 3 within the native enzyme complex was found to exhibit an increased sensitivity to endogenous proteolysis. The site of specific proteolysis was localized in the region of the polypeptide chain that is unique for all alpha 3 type isoforms: PNDNR492 decreases (Y493) (according to the numeration of human alpha 3-subunit). It was shown for the first time that in all enzyme preparations containing the alpha 2 and alpha 3 isoforms isolated by both Jorgensen's and Esmann's method two other proteins were present: the beta 5 chain of tubulin and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase; the biological meaning of their association is still unclear.
