A study was made of the enzyme content of the isolated cell walls and of a plasma-membrane preparation obtained by centrifugation after enzymic digestion of the cell walls of baker's yeast. The isolated cell walls showed no hexokinase, alkaline phosphatase, esterase or NADH oxidase activity. It was concluded that these enzymes exist only in the interior of the cell. Further, only a negligible activity of deamidase was detectable in the cell walls. Noticeable amounts of saccharase, phosphatases hydrolysing p-nitrophenyl phosphate, ATP, ADP, thiamin pyrophosphate and PP(i), with optimum activity at pH3-4, and an activity of Mg(2+)-dependent adenosine triphosphatase at neutral pH, were found in the isolated cell walls. During enzymic digestion, the other activities appearing in the cell walls were mostly released into the medium, but the bulk of the Mg(2+)-dependent adenosine triphosphatase remained in the plasma-membrane preparation. Accordingly, it may be assumed that the enzymes released into the medium during digestion are located in the cell wall outside the plasma membrane, whereas the Mg(2+)-dependent adenosine triphosphatase is an enzyme of the plasma membrane. This enzyme differs from the phosphatases with pH optima in the range pH3-4 with regard to location, pH optimum, substrate specificity and different requirement of activators.

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.

In addition to the previously described deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) polymerase, DNA ligase, DNA exonuclease, and DNA endonuclease activities, purified virions of Schmidt-Ruppin strain of Rous sarcoma virus (SRV) have nucleotides and nucleotide kinase, phosphatase, hexokinase, and lactate dehydrogenase activities. The SRV virions have no glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity. All enzyme activities, but glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and adenosine triphosphatase, were increased by disruption of the virions. The DNA polymerase, DNA ligase, and hexokinase activities had a higher specific activity in purified virion cores. It is suggested that during assembly virions of SRV may pick up cytoplasmic components which bind to virion proteins. The role of these components in viral replication is not known at present.

Inhibitor titration experiments carried out with carboxyatractyloside, oligomycin and rotenone show that in the case of heart mitochondria the membrane-bound ATPase and the respiratory chain are the major factors controlling the rate of oxidative phosphorylation whereas the adenine nucleotide carrier exhibits no control strength. As shown by carboxyatractyloside titration curves under different conditions, the relative importance of the adenine nucleotide carrier depends on the mode of regeneration (F1-ATPase or glucose plus hexokinase) of ADP from ATP exported outside mitochondria, on the total concentration of adenine nucleotides present in the medium and on the mode of limitation of the rate of respiration (cyanide, rotenone, oligomycin or mersalyl). Concomitantly with the inhibition of O2 consumption, carboxyatractyloside brings about a rise in membrane potential. The inverse relationship between the two processes is observed for carboxyatractyloside concentrations ranging between 0.7 and 1.5 nmol per mg protein. Carboxyatractyloside concentrations below and above this range increase the membrane potential without affecting significantly the rate of respiration. Titration experiments aimed at comparing the effects of ADP, carboxyatractyloside and the uncoupler, carbonyl cyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone, corroborate the conclusion that in heart mitochondria a major limiting factor in oxidative phosphorylation is the capacity of the respiratory chain.

A method has been developed for calculating rate constants for dehydration of aldehydes that induce ATPase reactions by kinases and where 18O is transferred from the aldehyde or its hydrate to inorganic phosphate during the reaction. The method involves measurement of the fraction of 18O in phosphate by 31P NMR after the ATPase reaction has proceeded for several minutes with zero-order kinetics. The reaction is started by addition of the aldehyde in a small volume of H2 18O, and the speed of washout of 18O by reversible dehydration relative to the rate of the ATPase reaction allows calculation of the rate constants if the hydration equilibrium constant is known from the proton NMR spectrum of the aldehyde. Dehydration rate constants (s-1 at pH 8-8.5, 0.1 M buffer, 25 degrees C) for the following aldehydes (all over 95% hydrated) and kinases used are as follows: D-glyceraldehyde with glycerokinase, 0.03; 2,5-anhydro-D-mannose 6-phosphate with fructose-6-phosphate kinase, 0.025; 2,5-anhydro-D-mannose or 2,5-anhydro-D-talose with fructokinase, 0.029 and 0.017, respectively; D-gluco-hexodialdose with hexokinase, 0.068. With betaine aldehyde and choline kinase or glyoxylate and pyruvate kinase, no 18O was transferred to phosphate during the ATPase reactions. However, the dehydration rate constant for glyoxylate (0.007 s-1 at pH 7 extrapolated to zero buffer concentration and up to 0.11 s-1 at pH 9.0 with 0.3 M buffer) was determined by extrapolating the initial rate of reduction of the free aldehyde catalyzed by lactate dehydrogenase to infinite enzyme levels.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Aldehyde analogues of the normal alcohol substrates induce ATPase activities by glycerokinase (D-glyceraldehyde), fructose-6-phosphate kinase (2,5-anhydromannose 6-phosphate), fructokinase (2,5-anhydromannose or 2,5-anhydrotalose), hexokinase (D-gluco-hexodialdose), choline kinase (betaine aldehyde), and pyruvate kinase (glyoxylate). Since purified deuterated aldehydes give V and V/K isotope effects near 1.0 for glycerokinase, fructokinase with 2,5-anhydro[1-2H]talose, hexokinase, choline kinase, and pyruvate kinase, the hydrates of these almost fully hydrated aldehydes are the activators of the ATPase reactions. Fructose-6-phosphate kinase and fructokinase with 2,5-anhydro[1-2H]mannose show V/K deuterium isotope effects of 1.10 and 1.22, respectively, suggesting either that both hydrate and free aldehyde may be activators (predicted values are 1.37 if only the free aldehyde activates the ATPase) or, more likely, that the phosphorylated hydrate breaks down in a rate-limiting step on the enzyme while MgADP is still present and the back-reaction to yield free hydrate in solution is still possible. 18O was transferred from the aldehyde hydrate to phosphate during the ATPase reactions of glycerokinase, fructose-6-phosphate kinase, fructokinase, and hexokinase but not with choline kinase or pyruvate kinase. Thus, direct phosphorylation of the hydrates by the first four enzymes gives the phosphate adduct of the aldehyde, which decomposes nonenzymatically, while with choline kinase and pyruvate kinase the hydrates induce transfer to water (metal-bound hydroxide or water with pyruvate kinase on the basis of pH profiles). Observation of a lag in the release of phosphate from the glycerokinase ATPase reaction at 15 degrees C supports the existence of a phosphorylated hydrate intermediate with a rate constant for breakdown of 0.035-0.043 s-1 at this temperature. Kinases that phosphorylate creatine, 3-phosphoglycerate, and acetate did not exhibit ATPase activities in the presence of keto or aldehyde analogues (N-methylhydantoic acid, D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate, and acetaldehyde, respectively), possibly because of the absence of an acid-base catalytic group in the latter two cases. These analogues were competitive inhibitors vs. the normal substrates, and in the latter case, the hydrate of acetaldehyde was shown to be the inhibitory species on the basis of the deuterium isotope effect on the inhibition constant.

Deciliation of Paramecium tetraurelia by a Ca2+ shock procedure releases a discrete set of proteins which represent about 1% of the total cell protein. Marker enzymes for cytoplasm (hexokinase), endoplasmic reticulum (glucose-6-phosphatase), peroxisomes (catalase), and lysosomes (acid phosphatase) were not released by this treatment. Among the proteins selectively released is a Ca2+-dependent ATPase. This enzyme has a broad substrate specificity which includes GTP, ATP, and UTP, and it can be activated by Ca2+, Sr2+, or Ba2+, but not by Mg2+ or by monovalent cations. The crude enzyme has a specific activity of 2-3 mumol/min per mg; the optimal pH for activity is 7.5. ATPase, GTPase, and UTPase all reside in the same protein, which is inhibited by ruthenium red, is irreversibly denatured at 50 degrees C, and which has a sedimentation coefficient of 8-10 S. This enzyme is compared with other surface-derived ATPases of ciliated protozoans, and its possible roles are discussed.

Mg2+-ATPase activity was identified in the cytosol of human erythrocytes. A partial purification of this activity was achieved by an initial DEAE-Sephadex column chromatography, followed by gel filtration on Sephadex G-100 and then a second DEAE-Sephadex chromatography procedure. The enzyme appeared in the void volume of the Sephadex G-100 column and was retained on an Amicon XM100A ultrafiltration membrane. The molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be 113 000 from SD gels. The above purification protocol yielded an enzyme with an optimal pH between 7.6 and 8.2. The enzyme activity increased linearly between 30 and 44 degrees C. It was stable for several months at -20 degrees C. Magnesium was essential for activity, but the rate attainable with Mn2+ was at least as great as that due to Mg2+. No other divalent cation was able to substitute for Mg2+ or Mn2+. Neither low nor high Ca2+ concentrations significantly affected the enzymatic activity. Substrate specificity studies showed that ATP was the preferred substrate followed by CTP (46% of the rate produced by ATP). Hydrolysis of GTP, UTP, ITP and ADP was less than 10% of the rate seen with ATP. No phosphatase, pyrophosphatase, phosphodiesterase, hexokinase, phosphofructokinase or adenylate cyclase activity could be detected in this enzyme preparation. Calmodulin, which stimulates the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase of the human erythrocyte membrane, failed to enhance the Mg2+-ATPase activity. Of considerable interest, the activity of this Mg2+-ATPase was enhanced approximately 5-fold by low concentrations of mercuric ion, p-hydroxymercuribenzoate and DTNB, but was much less sensitive to iodoacetamide.

The antitumour antibiotic, adriamycin, inhibited oxidative phosphorylation in freshly prepared mitochondria from the heart, liver and kidney of the rat. It abolished respiratory control and stimulated ATPase activity. Succinate oxidation by heart mitochondria was extremely sensitive to the drug when hexokinase was present in the reaction medium. The sensitive site has been identified to lie in the region between the succinate dehydrogenase flavoprotein and ubiquinone of the respiratory chain.

Glycolysis in Ehrlich ascites tumor cells suspended in buffer containing 5 mM Pi was 50% inhibited by ouabain. In the absence of Pi the inhibition was less striking. Permeabilization of the cells with filipin abolished glycolysis, but glycolysis was restored by addition of Pi and AMP. Neither ouabain nor quercetin inhibited glycolysis in these permeabilized cells. We conclude that quercetin did not inhibit hexokinase sufficiently to affect glycolysis. An extract of Ehrlich ascites tumor cells glycolyzed weakly unless either Pi or an ATPase (e.g. (Na+K+)-ATPase) was added. The low rate of glycolysis of the extract was even further reduced when an endogenous ATPase was removed by precipitation with CaATP. The glycolytic activity of this ATPase-deficient extract was restored by addition of purified (Na+K+)-ATPase or of CaATP-precipitable ATPase. Addition of hexokinase without Pi did not restore glycolytic activity to the extract. An explanation for the contradictory conclusions by Bustamante, E., Morris, H.P., and Pedersen, P.L. (J. Biol. Chem. (1981) 265, 8699-8704) is presented.
