Myosin from rabbit stomach was highly purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation in the presence of ATP and MgCl2, ultracentrifugation and Sepharose 4B chromatography. The myosin composed of one heavy and two light chains as determined by SDS-gel electrophoresis. The molecular weights of the light chains were the same as those of gizzard myosin, about 20,000 and 17,000, respectively. The pH-activity curve and the KCl concentration dependency of Ca-ATPase of the stomach myosin were similar to those of other smooth muscle myosins. The stomach myosin was more resistant to pepsin digestion than skeletal myosin. Other proteolytic enzymes, trypsin, chymotrypsin, papain, and nagarse, digested the myosin in the same way as skeletal myosin.

Transport activity of the hog gastric (H+ + K+)-ATPase system was measured either as the formation of proton gradient using the dye probe acridine orange or as the formation of a proton diffusion potential using the cyanine dye 3,3'-diethyloxdicarbocyanine iodide in the presence of the protonophore tetrachlorosalicylanilide. The development of these gradients has been compared in K+ media in the presence of either Cl- or SO4-2 as the anionic species. This comparison of proton diffusion potential formation to proton gradient formation has been used to demonstrate that a Cl- conductance in this vesicular system results from limited enzymic digestion with either trypsin or alpha-chymotrypsin from the ageing process itself. The possible significance of this finding is discussed.

1. Prolonged treatment of coupling factor I (CF1) from spinach chloroplasts with trypsin free of chymotrypsin yielded an active ATPase. The isolated preparation showed only two polypeptide chains (mol wt 55,000 to 60,000) on acrylamide gels run in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. The three smaller subunits of CF1 were not detectable. The preparation no longer served as a coupling factor for photophosphorylation in either EDTA- or silicotungstate-treated chloroplasts. 2. An antiserum prepared against coupling factor I from chloroplasts inhibited the ATPase activity of the trypsin-treated CF1. In contrast, antisera prepared against the two individual (denatured) subunits did not inhibit the ATPase activity when tested either alone or together, although each interacted with the trypsin-treated protein, forming precipitin lines in Ouchterlony plates. 3. The trypsin-treated enzyme was still cold-labile, showing that the three smaller subunits are not required for this property. However, the enzyme was no longer sensitive to the natural inhibitor protein which is one of its subunits (subunit epislon), but was still sensitive to inhibition by the flavonoid quercetin. 4. Two equivalents of 7-chloro-4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole were sufficient to inhibit about 80% of the ATPase activity of the coupling factor, irrespective of whether it contained two of five subunits. The inhibition was completely reversed by dithiothreitol. 5. Triated 7-chloro-4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole was prepared. Treatment of the coupling factor with this tritium-labeled inhibitor followed by electrophoresis on acrylamide gels revealed that most of the radioactivity was incorporated into the beta subunit of the enzyme (molecular weight 56,000).

Purified (Na+, K+)-activated adenosine triphosphatase ((Na+, K+)-ATPase, ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) has been subjected to trypsin and chymotrypsin hydrolysis. The glycoprotein is much more resistant to proteolysis than the large chain. This differential susceptibility to proteolysis is not due to differences in the number of trypsin or chymotrypsin sensitive bonds because the two subunits are equally susceptible to proteolysis after isolation by preparative gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate. It is also not due to steric "shielding" of the glycoprotein by the large chain or its proteolytic products: (1) The rate of digestion of the glycoprotein is not increased after 90% of the large chain is digested. (2) The majority of the large chain peptides are released into the supernatant upon degradation. It is concluded that the greater resistance of the glycoprotein to proteolysis is due to its native conformation. In the absence of the large chain, the susceptibility of the glycoprotein to tryptic degradation by K+ and Na+. The evidence suggests that this decreased susceptibility was due to conformational changes in the glycoprotein. These specific ligand effects on proteolysis of the glycoprotein suggests that the glycoprotein may participate in Na+ and K+ binding by (Na+, K+)-ATPase.

Actin can be cleaved by trypsin or chymotrypsin into a large, autonomous fragment with approximately 80% of the mass of the undegraded polypeptide. The protease-resistant cores obtained with either enzyme are very similar. Although the fragment does not bind calcium ions and fails to polymerize to the filamentous form of actin or to stimulate myosin adenosine triphosphatase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) activity, it retains the full capacity to bind ATP. This observation suggests that it represents an independent functional unit. Cleavage of globular actin with either trypsin or chymotrypsin occurs with half-times of 3 min, while that of filamentous actin proceeds with reaction half-times of 20 min for trypsin and nearly 2 hr for chymotrypsin. Denaturation and renaturation of the trypsin-resistant core shows that approximately 20% of the molecules refold to functional forms which indicates that the fragment can be considered as an independent unit of folding as well.

Subfragment-1 of HMM was prepared by tryptic [EC 3.4.21.4] digestion of HMM, which had been modified with 1 mole of CMB per mole of HMM at a specific SH group, SHr. S-1(T) obtained from CMB-HMM retained almost all the CMB, and the amount of bound CMB was about 0.8-0.9 mole per 2 moles of S-1(T). S-2 of CMB-HMM contained no bound CMB. The ATPase [EC 3.6.1.3] activity of HMM increased gradually with increase in the concentration of FA, and the acto-HMM ATPase was inhibited by excess substrate or removal of Ca2+ ions in the presence of RP. The ATPase activity of CMB-HMM increased to a maximum level on adding a small amount of FA, and the acto-CMB-HMM ATPase showed neither substrate inhibition nor Ca2+ sensitivity in the presence of RP. On the other hand, the dependence on the concentration of FA of the ATPase activity of acto-S-1(T) was unaffected by modification of S-1 with CMB. The Ca2+ sensitivity of the ATPase activity of acto-S-1(T) in the presence of RP was also unaffected by the modification. Acto-S-1(T) dissociated almost completely, while acto-CMB-S-1(T) was only 50% dissociated on adding ATP. More than 80% of the bound CMB was contained in S-1(T) undissociated from FA. Furthermore, superprecipitation of actomyosin induced by ATP was completely inhibited by adding about 2 moles of CMB-S-1(T) per mole of actin monomer. On the other hand, about 90% of the burst size of Pi liberation was retained in S-1(T) dissociated from FA. It was concluded that the two heads of the myosin molecule are different: one shows the initial burst of Pi liberation, and does not contain the SHr group which binds CMB (head B), and the other does not show the initial burst and contains the SHr group (head A). It was also concluded that modification of head A of HMM or myosin with CMB increases its binding strength to FA, and consequently the substrate inhibition and Ca2+ sensitivity of acto-HMM or actomyosin ATPase at head B are lost on modification of head A with CMB. CMB-S-1(CT) was prepared by chymotryptic [EC 3.4.21.1] digestion of CMB-myosin, and separated into two fractions by ultracentrifugation of acto-CMB-S-1(CT) in the presence of ATP. Three components of CMB-S-1(CT) with molecular weights of 9, 2.4, and 1.2 X 10(4) were separated by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The ratios of the peak areas of the three components in electrophoretograms were the same in CMB-S-1(CT) and in the two fractions (1 : 0.18 : 0.09), indicating that heads A and B have the same subunit structure.

The activation of the coupling factor-latent ATPase enzyme by tryptic proteolysis may resemble the activation of many proenzymes by limited proteolysis. The beta (53 000 dalton) subunit of solubilized coupling factor-latent ATPase from Mycobacterium phlei was selectively lost in some trypsin-treated samples. Since a concomitant loss of ATPase activity was not observed, the beta subunit may not be essential for ATPase catalytic activity. Treatment of solubilized coupling factor with chymotrypsin rapidly produced an A'-type (61 000 dalton) species from the native alpha (64 000 dalton) subunits with partial activation of the APTase enzyme. Secondary chymotryptic cleavage yielded an A"-type (58 000 dalton) species and a less-active enzyme. Storage of fresh coupling factor samples at -20degreeC in the presence of 4 mM MgCl2 with several freeze-thaw cycles resulted in loss of ATPase activity without apparent change in alpha subunit structure. Storage at 4 degrees C in the presence or absence of MgCl2 both decreased ATPase activity and generated A'-type alpha subunit species. Since presence was suspected. The peptide bonds first cleaved by trypsin, chymotrypsin, and the unknown protease are all apparantly located within the same small segment of alpha subunit polypeptide chain.

Intact spermatozoa from rat cauda epididymis possess a Mg2+-dependent ATPase activity that hydrolyses externally added [gamma-32P]ATP. The ATPase reaction was linear with time for approx. 6 min and there was no detectable uptake of ATP by these cells. The ATPase activity of the whole spermatozoa was not due to leakage of the intracellular enzymic activity, contamination of the broken cells or any possible cell damage during incubation and isolation of spermatozoa. The activity of the enzyme was strongly inhibited (approx. 85%) by p-chloromercuribenzenesulphonic acid (50 microM) or the diazonium salt of sulphanilic acid (50 microM), which are believed not to enter the cells, whereas ouabain (0.5 mM), NaF (10 mM), NaN3 (2.5 mM) and oligomycin (5 microM) had no appreciable effect on the activity of the spermatozoal APTase. There was little loss of ATPase activity from the cells when washed with 0.5 mM-EDTA and an iso-osmotic or hyperosmotic medium. These data are consistent with the view that the observed ATPase activity is located on the external surface of spermatozoa. The sperm ecto-ATPase activity is resistant to the action of proteinases (50 micrograms/ml), namely trypsin, chymotrypsin and Pronase. Studies with various unlabelled phosphate esters indicate that the sperm ecto-ATPase is not a non-specific phosphatase and it has high degree of substrate specificity for ATP.

Young rats treated with 10 to 14 daily injections of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetate (2,4-D) developed a myopathy mainly involving fast muscles. Myosin isolated from the gastrocnemius muscles of treated and normal control animals differed in several respects. The Ca2+- and Mg2+-mediated ATPases were higher in myopathic muscle myosin than in normals. Alkylation of thiols by N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) induced an increase of Ca2+-activated ATPase that was higher in normal than in myopathic myosin. Trinitrophenylation of reactive amino groups by 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonate (TBS) induced on increase in Mg2+-mediated ATPase in both preparations, but the increase was higher in normals. Although the heavy- and light-chain pattern was identical in normal and myopathic myosin, during storage at 0 degrees C the relative amount of myopathic L2 light chain decreased. Myosins fragmented either by limited proteolysis with trypsin and chymotrypsin or by specific cleavage at tryptophanyl and cysteinyl peptide bonds showed differences on sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. The results indicate that there is a change in the heavy chains of myosin isolated from the gastrocnemius muscle in 2,4-D-induced rat myopathy.

Isolated membrane fractions of Escherichia coli K-12 yielded complex immunoprecipitate patterns when Triton X-100 and sodium dodecyl sulfate extracts were examined by crossed immunoelectrophoresis with antienvelope immunoglobulins. Twelve of the 46 antigens in the immunoprecipitate patterns of inner (plasma) membranes were identified by zymograms and/or by the use of specific antisera. The following enzyme activities were detected in immunoprecipitates: 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.43); adenosine triphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.3); glutamate dehydrogenase (EC 1.4.1.4), two separate components; malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.37); dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (EC 1.3.3.1); succinate dehydrogenase (EC 1.3.99.1); lactate dehydrogeanse (EC 1.1.1.27); reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide dehydrogenase (EC 1.6.99.3); protease (EC 3.4.21.1); and glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.99.5). The corresponding immunoprecipitate pattern for isolated outer membranes consisted of at least 25 discrete antigens and differed strikingly from that obtained with inner membranes. Two major immunogens were identified as lipopolysaccharide and Braun lipoprotein. A protease-active immunoprecipitate was also detected in this fraction, but attempts to identify the Rosenbusch matrix protein in the crossed immunoelectrophoretic profile were unsuccessful.
