The effect of 4 groups of medicamentous agents, viz. neoruleptics, tricyclic antidepressants, somnifacients and antiepileptics - on the activity of the transport ATPase and p-nitrophenylphosphatase from the renal tubules of the guinea pig was studied. Used in high concentrations neuroleptics suppress almost completely the activity of the enzyme, but in small doses influence but little that of the p-nitrophenylphosphatase. The butyrophenone derivatives have a mild effect upon the activity of the p-nitrophenylphosphatase and in low concentrations they stimulate it. The effect of tricyclic antidepressants closely approaches the one produced by neuroleptics-phenothiazines. Lithium carbonate leaves the enzyme intact. Barbiturates and antiepileptic agents inhibit but feebly these enzymes.

A highly purified membrane fraction was derived from hog gastric mucosa by a combination of differential and density gradient centrifugation and free flow electrophoresis. This final fraction was 35-fold enriched with respect to cation activated ouabain-insensitive ATPase. Antibody against this fraction was shown to be bound to the luminal surface of the gastric glands. The addition of ATP to this fraction or the density gradient fraction resulted in H+ uptake into an osmotically sensitive space. The apparent Km for ATP was 1.7-10(-4) M in the absence of a K+ gradient similar to that found for ATPase activity. The reaction is specific for ATP and requires cation in the sequence K+ greater than Rb+ greater than Cs+ greater than Na+ greater than Li+ and inhibited by ATPase inhibitors such as N,N'-dicylclohexyl-carbodiimide. Maximal H+ uptake occurs with an outward K+ gradient but the minimal apparent KA is found in the absence of a K+ gradient. The pH optimum for H+ uptake is between 5.8 and 6.2 which corresponds to the pH range for phosphroylation of the enzyme, but is considerably less than the pH maximum of the K+ dependent dephosphorylation. In the presence of an inward K+ gradient, protonophores such as tetrachlorsalicylanilide only partially abolish the H+ gradient but valinomycin dissipates 75% of the gradient, and nigericin abolishes the gradient. The vesicles therefore have a low K+ conductance but a measurable H+ conductance, hence a K+ gradient can produce an H+ gradient in the presence of valinomycin. The uptake and spontaneous leak of H+ are temperature sensitive with a similar transition temperature. Ultraviolet irradiation inactivates ATPase and proton transport at the same rate, approximately at twice the rate of p-nitrophenylphosphatase inactivation. It is concluded that H+ uptake by these vesicles is probably due to a dimeric (H+ + K+)-ATPase and is probably non-electrogenic.

1. Preincubation with N-ethylmaleimide inhibits the overall activity of highly purified (Na+ +K+)-ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) preparations of rabbit kidney outer medulla. 2. This inhibition is decreased by addition of ATP or 4-nitrophenylphosphate under non-phosphorylating conditions, and also by addition of ADP or adenylylimidodiphosphate. 3. N-ethylmaleimide treatment leads to inhibition of K+-stimulated 4-nitrophenylphosphatase activity, Na+-stimulated ATPase activity, and phosphorylation by ATP as well as by inorganic phosphate. These inhibitions strictly parallel that of the overal (Na+ +K+)-ATPase reaction. 4. N-ethylmaleimide lowers the number of sites which are phosphorylated by inorganic phosphate, without affecting the dissociation constant of the enzyme-phosphate complex. 5. N-ethylmaleimide does not affect the relative stimulation by ATP of the K+-stimulated 4-nitrophenylphosphatase activity. 6. These effects of N-ethylmaleimide can be explained as a complete loss of active enzyme, either by reaction of N-ethylmaleimide inside the active center, or by alterations in the quaternary structure through reactions outside the active center.

1. Preincubation of purified (Na+ + K+)-ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) preparations from rabbit kidney outer medulla with 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) inhibits the (Na+ + 5+)-ATPase and K+-stimulated 4-nitro-phenylphosphatase activities. Phosphorylation of the enzyme by ATP and the Na+-stimulated ATPase activity are inhibited to the same extent as the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity, whereas the K+-stimulated 4-nitrophenylphosphatase activity is inhibited much less. 2. Titration with 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) in sodium dodecyl sulphate shows the presence of 36 reactive sulfhydryl groups per molecule (Na+ + K+)-ATPase (Mr = 250 000). 3. Treatment with N-ethylmaleimide, resulting in complete inhibition of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity, leads to modification of 26 sulfhydryl groups, whereas treatment with 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) results in modification of 12 sulfhydryl groups under the same conditions. 4. The reaction of N-ethylmaleimide with an essential SH-group is not prevented by previous blocking of sulfhydryl groups with 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid). 5. These findings indicate the existence of at least two classes of sulfhydryl groups on the enzyme, each containing at least one vital group. The difference between these classes consists in their different reactivity towards 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) and N-ethylmaleimide.

p-Nitrophenyl phosphate hydrolysis was studied at neutral pH with tissue preparations of the rat secretory and maturation enamel organs and dental pulp. By introduction of inhibitors to nonspecific alkaline phosphatase activity and stimulants to the K+-stimulated and ouabain-sensitive p-nitrophenyl phosphatase activity, the latter enzyme activity could be demonstrated. This enzyme activity is generally held to be representative of the enzyme sodium- and potassium-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase. The K+-stimulated activity was magnesium dependent and highly sensitive to fluoride. It was inhibited completely by 3 mM fluoride in the incubation medium and about 1 mM produced half the maximum inhibition. The K+-independent enzyme activity was inhibited 50-60% by fluoride in concentrations between 3 and 15 mM. The high fluoride sensitivity of the K+-stimulated activity may perhaps help to explain the vulnerability of dental tissues to fluoride.

Patulin (4-hydroxy-4H-furo[3,2-c]pyran-2(6H)-one), a carcinogenic lactone produced as a major metabolite by several fungi, inhibited the Mg++-dependent Na+-K+ activated adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity of mouse brain microsomal fractions with an estimated IC50 of 3.0 X 10(-4) M. Inhibition was concentration dependent. Hydrolysis of ATP was linear with both time and enzyme concentration either with or without patulin in reaction mixtures. Altered pH and activity curves for Na+-K+ ATPase demonstrated comparable inhibition by patulin in buffered acidic ranges through an optimum of 7.5, followed by a reduction of toxicity to this system at higher alkaline pH. Kinetic studies of cationic-substrate activation of Na+-K+ ATPase indicated noncompetitive inhibition with respect to ATP (at low affinity nucleotide-directed sites) and Na+ (in the presence of low, noninterfering concentrations of K+). Competitive inhibition with respect to activation of the Na+-k+-stimulated activity and K+-stimulated p-nitrophenyl phosphatase activity of the enzyme system was indicated by altered binding site parameters without change in apparent Vmax in the presence of patulin. Activity was partially restored by washing. Preincubation of patulin with dithiothreitol or glutathione protected the enzyme from inhibition. Results suggest that patulin exerted its effect on Na+-K+ ATPase either directly by interfering with K+ binding or indirectly by inducing a conformational change in the enzyme.

The membrane-bound (Na+ + K+)-activated ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) system was treated with the nonionic detergent octaethylene-glycoldodecyl ether, yielding a transparent supernatant after centrifugation. The supernatant was highly active with both ATPase and p-nitrophenylphosphatase, with initial specific activities of 2300 mumol Pi released . mg-1 protein. h-1 and 350 mumol p-nitrophenol released.mg-1 protein.h-1, respectively. The supernatant was purified to 95--100%, with respect to the 96 000 dalton and the 56 000 dalton peptides. The solubilized enzyme was gel filtered in Sepharose 4B-Cl and displayed 2 peaks, both with catalytic activity. The low molecular weight particles eluted at Kav = 0.54, corresponding to a molecular weight of approximately 500 000 daltons and the particles had a specific activity of 2100 mumol Pi.mg-1 protein.h-1. Both peaks contained phospholipid with 60 mol phospholipid bound per 300 000 g protein. The low molecular weight particles had a molecular weight of 276 000 as determined by sedimentation equilibrium analysis.

1. Purified (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, prepared from rabbit kidney outer medulla, is incubated with the bifunctional NH2-directed reagent dimethyl 3,3'-dithiobis-propionimidate. This results in a cross-link between the subunits of the enzyme and a simultaneous reduction of the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase and K+-stimulated p-nitrophenylphosphatase activities. 2. The most abundant cross-link product is a dimer of the two different subunits of the enzyme. 3. Reduction of the disulfide cross-link by dithioerythritol results in partial recovery of the original subunit structure of the enzyme and of the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase and K+-stimulated p-nitrophenylphosphatase activities. 4. These results suggest that a free mobility of the subunits of the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase system relative to each other is essential for proper functioning of both enzyme activities.

The phospholipid and fatty acid composition and role of phospholipids in enzyme and transport function of gastric (H+ + K+)-ATPase vesicles was studied using phospholipase A2 (bee venom). The composition (%) was phosphatidyl-choline (PC) 33%; sphingomyelin (sph) 25%; phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) 22%; phosphatidylserine (PS) 11%; and phosphatidylinositol (PI) 8%. The fatty acid composition showed a high degree of unsaturation. In both fresh and lyophilized preparations, even with prolonged incubation, only 50% of phospholipids were hydrolyzed, but the amount of PE and PS disappearing was increased following lyophilization. There was a marked decrease in K+-ATPase activity (75%) but essentially no loss of the associated K+ p-nitrophenyl phosphatase was found. ATPase activity could be largely restored by various phospholipids (PE greater than PC greater than PS). There was also an increase in Mg2+-ATPase activity, partially reversed in fresh preparations by the addition of phospholipids (PE greater than PS greater than PC). Proton transport activity of the preparation was rapidly inhibited, initially due to a large increase in the HCl permeability of the preparation. Associated with these enzymatic and functional changes, the ATP-induced conformational changes, as indicated by circular dichroism spectra were inhibited.

The sodium-potassium activated adenosine triphosphatase (NaKATPase) activity of the rat cornea was investigated histochemically using a Pb2+-precipitation technique in which adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is used as substrate and two methods for potassium-dependent para-nitrophenyl-phosphatase (K-NPPase) activity. With all the three techniques used it was demonstrated that the sodium-potassium-activated adenosine triphosphatase (NaK-ATPase) activity is localized in the cell membranes of the endothelium whereas a much weaker activity was observed in the epithelium. When the Pb2+-technique was used, the epithelial cell membranes showed a weaker reaction in the presence of ouabain. This activity was only Mg2+-dependent and was presumably due to an Mg2+-dependent ATPase. The validity of the histochemical techniques for NaK-ATPase activity is discussed. The results emphasize the importance of the endothelium as the main site of Na+ transport in the cornea. Small amounts of the enzyme are also present in the epithelium, which seems to be rich in Mg2+-ATPase. Provided that careful controls are performed, all the methods give consistent results in the cornea.
