Progressive strength training was performed 3 times a week for 8 weeks by 14 male students (19-31 yrs.). The training program consisted mainly of dynamic exercises for the leg extensors with maximal or close to maximal loads. The training caused significant improvements in dynamic and isometric strength. One repetition maximum in squats increased with 67%, Sargent jump with 22%, and maximal voluntary isometric contraction (MVC) with 13%, respectively. Body weight and leg muscle circumferences remained unchanged after training, whereas total body potassium, lean body mass and calculated total muscle mass increased, suggesting a change in body composition with training. Muscle biopsies were obtained from vastus lateralis for fibre analyses and determination of enzyme activities. There were no changes in muscle fibre composition or fibre area with training. The activities of Mg2+ stimulated ATPase, creatine phosphokinase and phosphofructokinase remained unchanged, whereas myokinase activity was increased after training from (1.41 to 1.52 moles x 10(-4) x g-1 x min-1, p less than 0.05). After training significant correlations (p less than 0.01) were demonstrated between Mg2+ stimulated ATPase activity and % fast twitch fibres (% FT) (r = 0.67), as well as between myokinase activity and % FT (r = 0.86).

1. Incubation of human and rat hepatoma cells with insulin (1 mU/10(6) cells) decreases their content of adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate by more than half after 1 h and by about a quarter after 4 h. 2. The activities of the ATP-metabolising enzymes, adenylate kinase and Mg2+-adenosine triphosphatase are significantly increased by insulin within 1 h and after 4 h. Activity of succinate dehydrogenase and lactic dehydrogenase showed no change at either time interval. 3. Insulin markedly stimulated glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity within 1 h but by 4 h the increase was less apparent. Glutamate dehydrogenase activity by contrast was not increased by 1 h but was elevated at 4 h.

The purpose of this study was to try to differentiate histochemically between the various enzymes which may catalyze the hydrolysis of ATP in developing rat dental tissues. Freeze cut and freeze dried sections of molar and incisor teeth were incubated in lead capture-based media at pH 5.0, 7.2 or 9.4 with one of the following substrates: beta-glycerophosphate, AMP, ADP, ATP, AMP-PNP and tetrasodium pyrophosphate. To establish the enzymatic nature of the hydrolysis parallel sections were incubated after prior fixation in either formaldehyde or glutaraldehyde. By comparing the enzymatic stainings obtained with the various substrates and at the different pH:s, it was concluded that ATP can be visibly hydrolyzed in rat dental tissues by alkaline phosphatase (stratum intermedium, apical part of maturation ameloblasts, basal part of all ameloblasts, odontoblasts and subodontoblastic layer), specific ATPase (apical and basal parts of secretory ameloblasts) and ATP pyrophosphatase and/or adenylate cyclase (stratum intermedium, odontoblasts). Acid phosphatase, specific ADPase, 5'-nucleotidase, inorganic pyrophosphatase, 3':5'-cyclic-AMP-phosphodiesterase and adenylate kinase on the other hand, seem not to be engaged in the ATP hydrolysis to such a degree as to complicate the interpretation of the histochemical staining. The alkaline phosphatase part of the ATP hydrolysis appeared to be rather insensitive to aldehyde fixation, while the hydrolysis effected by specific ATPase and ATP pyrophosphatase and/or adenylate cyclase was extinguished after fixation with formaldehyde for 4 h or glutaraldehyde for 10 min.

The enzyme activities of Mg2+ stimulated ATPase, creatine phosphokinase (CPK), myokinase (MK) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) were determined in pooled fast twitch (FT) and slow twitch (ST) human skeletal muscle fibers, dissected out from freeze-dried muscle biopsy material. All enzymes investigated demonstrated higher activities in FT fibres. The ratio in enzyme activity between fibre types was greatest for Mg2+ stimulated ATPase (3:1) and smallest for CPK (1.3:1). In addition, the isozyme patterns of CPK, MK and LDH were studied by means of isoelectric focusing (CPK and MK) and discelectrophoresis (LDH). A difference was observed between fibre types with respect to the isozyme distribution of MK and LDH, whereas the CPK isozyme pattern was similar in both fibre types. These results on separated human FT and ST fibres were essentially in conformity with what has earlier been indicated from experiments on mixed muscle homogenates.

Membrane preparations of erythrocytes from normal and P. chabaudi-infected mice and membrane preparations of P. chabaudi-infected and uninfected erythrocytes from infected mice and separated by zonal centrifugation were characterized by the pattern of proteins and extracted glycoproteins obtained by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and by the specific activities of membrane associated enzymes. The protein pattern of the membrane preparation of infected erythrocytes showed similar differences from membrane preparations of normal erythrocytes as those described by Weidekamm et al. for P. berghei. The pattern of glycoproteins extracted by the chloroform-methanol method showed characteristic differences as compared to the controls. A new band (PASi) with a molecular weight of about 165,000 corresponds with the protein band IIa. In membrane preparations of normal erythrocytes and of nonparasitized erythrocytes separated from parasitized erythrocytes by zonal centrifugation was no difference in specific activities of ATPase, adenylate kinase and acetylcholinesterase. Adenylate kinase activity was markedly increased and acetyl-cholinesterase activity was slightly increased in membrane preparations of infected cells. Specific activities of ATPase of membrane preparations of normal and parasitized erythrocytes did not show significant differences. There was a decrease in enzyme activity of ATPase and an increase of acetylcholinesterase in Triton X 100 containing samples. Specific activities of an acid phosphatase were lower in membrane preparations of parasitized cells than in the controls.

Studies on the effect of a series of alpha, omega-diadenosine 5'-polyphosphate (ApnA; n = 2 to 6) on carbamyl phosphate synthetase showed that only Ap5A is an effective inhibitor. Ap5A also inhibits two partial reactions catalyzed by the enzyme: bicarbonate-dependent ATPase and ATP synthesis from carbamyl phosphate and ADP. The data indicate that Ap5A binds to the enzyme sites that interact with ATP. Of a variety of ATP-utilizing enzymes (kinases, hydrolases, synthetases), only adenylate kinase (Leinhard, G. E., and Secemski, I. I. (1973) J. Biol. Chem. 248, 1121--1123) and carbamyl phosphate synthetase are inhibited by Ap5A. The present findings provide strong evidence that carbamyl phosphate synthetase has two separate binding sites for ATP in which the gamma-phosphate moeities of ATP are bound in close proximity to the bicarbonate binding site of the enzyme.

Biopsies for histochemical and biochemical analyses were taken from the vastus lateralis muscle of 55 untrained, healthy male subjects from 22 to 65 years of age. Fibre type distribution changed towards a decrease in the percentage of type II fibres, both in type IIA and type IIB fibres, whereas type IIB/IIA fibre ratio and type IIC percentage did not change with increasing age. It was found that the type IIB/IIA fibre ratio was inversely related to type I fibres, i.e. subjects rich in type I fibres had a relatively smaller proportion of type IIB fibres. Fibre area determinations revealed a selective decrease in type II fibre area. Consequently, the type II/I fibre area ratio and relative type II fibre area decreased. No changes in the specific activities of Mg2+ stimulated ATPase and myokinase were observed, while the activity of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was higher in the youngest groups than in the oldest. LDH isozyme pattern shifted towards a decrease in percentage distribution of the muscle specific isozymes and a corresponding decrease in muscle specific activity while the activity of the heart specific isozymes did not change.

Space-filling models of yeast hexokinase, adenylate kinase, and phosphoglycerate kinase drawn by computer clearly portray the bilobal character of these phosphoryl transfer enzymes, and the deep cleft which is formed between the lobes. A dramatic conformational change occurs in hexokinase as glucose binds to the bottom of the cleft, which causes the two lobes of hexokinase to come together. A substrate-induced closing of the active site cleft is postulated to occur in other kinases as well. This change may provide a mechanism by which some of these enzymes reduce their inherent adenosine triphosphatase activity and could be a general requirement of the kinase reaction.

Mitochondrial and microsomal fractions were isolated from guinea pig myocardium by differential pelleting. The mitochondrial fraction was subjected to analytical subfractionation by sucrose density gradient centrifugation and the gradient fractions assayed for marker enzymes for the various mitochondrial compartments, viz outer membrane (monoamine oxidase), intermembranous space (adenylate kinase), inner membrane (Mg2+-dependent ATPase and cytochrome c oxidase) and mitochondrial matrix (malate dehydrogenase), and for creatine kinase. Both creatine kinase and adenylate kinase were released by suspending the mitochondria in 50 mmol . litre-1 sodium phosphate buffer. Sonication or disruption with the detergent, digitonin released the adenylate kinase but the creatine kinase remained associated with the inner membranes. Subsequent salt treatment desorbed the creatine kinase from these membranes. It is concluded that creatine kinase is located to the outer aspect of the inner mitochondrial membrane. Analytical subfractionation of the microsomal fraction clearly resolved markers for the sarcolemma (5'-nucleotidase), outer mitochondrial membrane (monoamine oxidase) and endoplasmic reticulum (neutral alpha-glucosidase and RNA). Creatine kinase was localised in the endoplasmic reticulum particularly the smooth membranes.

1. We have developed a procedure for preparing resealed red cell ghosts that contain ADP but very little ATP. 2. The procedure involves (i) lysis of the cells in a very large volume of lysing solution, (ii) resuspension of the ghosts in a small volume, (iii) the incorporation into the ghosts, before they are resealed, of the adenylate kinase inhibitor P1,P5-di(adenosine-5'-)pentaphosphate (AP5A) and of hexokinase, and (iv) the removal of traces of ATP, formed by residual adenylate kinase activity, by the addition of glucose. 3. Measurements of sodium efflux from ghosts prepared in this way show that sodium-sodium exchange through the sodium pump does not occur in the absence of ATP even if ADP is present. 4. The beta:gamma imido analogue of ATP (AMP.PNP), which is incapable of phosphorylating sodium, potassium-ATPase, cannot replace ATP in supporting sodium-sodium exchange. 5. These findings support the hypothesis that the outward movement of sodium ions through the sodium pump is associated with the transfer of a phosphoryl group from ATP to the enzyme, and that the inward movement of sodium ions through the pump is associated with the return of a phosphoryl group from the phosphoenzyme to ADP.
