A membrane fraction with sarcolemmal properties was purified from the smooth muscle layers (myometrium) of rat uterus by successive differential and equilibrium centrifugation in sucrose. The putative sarcolemmal fraction was identified by iodination with [125I]iodosulfanilic acid, had an equilibrium density of 1.15, and was enriched in enzyme activities usually associated with the plasma membrane including 5'-nucleotidase (EC 3.1.3.5) and (Na+ + K+) ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3). These membranes were free of mitochondrial or nuclear membrane contamination, suggesting the relative enrichment of sarcolemmal membranes in the fraction. Proteins of the membranes were heterogeneous with respect to molecular weight, but only a few were labelled when intact muscle was radioiodinated. Uniform resistance of sarcolemmal proteins to trypsin digestion and salt extraction suggested many are tightly bound or intrinsic membrane proteins and was a further indication of the homogeneity of membranes in this fraction.

An adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase EC 3.6.1.3) was partially purified from myeloblasts of chicken infected with the avian myeloblastosis virus and some of its molecular, catalytic and immunological properties were compared with that of the ATPase purified from the virus. Both the enzymes possessed almost same electrophoretic mobility, molecular weight, S20,w value, substrate specificity, metal-ion requirement, apparent Km value and sensitivity to inhibitors and activator. Evidence also indicated immunological identity of the two enzymes. The insensitivity of this enzyme to rutamycin or ouabain and extreme sensitivity to most of the detergents, trypsin and mercurials are the remarkable properties of this enzyme.

To distinguish ligand-induced structural states of the (Na+--K+)-ATPase, the purified membrane-bound enzyme isolated from rat kidneys was digested with trypsin in the presence of various combinations of Na+, K+, Mg++ and ATP. It was found that first the large and then the small polypeptide chain of the (Na+--K+)-ATPase was degraded, indicating that the lysine and arginine residues of the large chain are more exposed than are those of the small one. The (Na+--K+)-ATPase activity was inactivated in parallel with the degradation of the large polypeptide chain. After the degradation of the large polypeptide chain, about 75% of the (Na+--K+)-ATPase protein remained bound to the membrane, demonstrating that the split protein segments were only partially released. It was found that the combinations of ATP, Mg++, Na+ and K+ present during trypsin digestion influenced the time course and degree of degradation of the (Na+--K+)-ATPase protein. The degradations of the large and the small polypeptide chain were affected in parallel. Thus, certain ATP and ligand combinations influenced neither the degradation of the large nor the degradation of the small polypeptide chain, whereas by other combinations of ATP and ligands the degree of susceptibility of both polypeptide chains to trypsin was equally increased or reduced. In the absence of ATP the time course of trypsin digestion of the (Na+--K+)-ATPase was the same, whether Na+ or K+ was present. With low ATP concentrations (e.g., 0.1 mM), however, binding of Na+ or K+ led to different degradation patterns of the enzyme. If a high concentration of ATP (e.g. 10 mM) was present, Na+ and K+ also influenced the degradation pattern of the (Na+--K+)-ATPase, but differentially compared to that at low ATP concentrations, since the effects of Na+ and K+ were reversed. Furthermore, it was found that the degradation of the small chain was only influenced by certain combinations of ATP, Mg++, Na+ and K+ if the large chain was intact when the ligands were added to the enzyme. The described results demonstrate structural alterations of the (Na+--K+)-ATPase complex which are supposed to include a synchronous protrusion or retraction of both (Na+--K+)-ATPase subunits. The data further suggest that ATP and other ligands primarily alter the structure of the large (Na+--K+)-ATPase subunit. This structural alteration is presumed to lead to a synchronous movement of the small subunit of the enzyme. The structural state of the (Na+--K+)-ATPase is regulated by binding of Na+ or K+ to the enzyme-ATP complex. The effects of Na+ and K+ on the (Na+--K+)-ATPase structure are modulated by the ATP binding to "high affinity" and to "low affinity" ATP binding sites.

The nucleoside triphosphate-stimulated efflux of RNA from isolated nuclei was studied under a range of conditions, and the effects of these conditions on the process were compared with the properties of the nucleoside triphosphatase located in the pore complex. A marked similarity between the rate of efflux and the rate of nucleoside triphosphate hydrolysis was apparent, in terms of substrate specificity, sensitivity to treatment with insolubilized trypsin, kinetics and the effects of increased ionic strength and of many inhibitors. These results are taken, in view of earlier evidence, to suggest that the activity of the nucleoside triphosphatase is a prerequisite for nucleo-cytoplasmic RNA transport in vivo. There are some indications that the nuclear-envelope lipid is also involved in regulating the efflux process.

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.

The ATPase preparations from the hog thyroid was preincubated with various amounts of trypsin. The activity of Mg-ATPase was consistently elevated. On the contrary, the Na, K-ATPase activity decreased with increasing amounts of trypsin. The effects were similar to those which were observed in the enzyme preparations treated with basis polyamino acids as previously reported. This phenomenon seemed to be specific in the preparations from the thyroid. The Mg-dependent activity was increased after pretreatment with trypsin or poly-L-lysine (PLL) when CTP, ITP and UTP were used as substrate. Thus the substrate specificity of Mg-ATPase was low. The enzyme-kinetics using ATP as substrate showed that the increase in activity was due to an increase in Vmax and not to a change in Km. The activity of Mg-ATPase was increased even after 30 min of preincubation with trypsin, while the Na, K-ATPase activity was almost diminished. These results suggest that the activity of Mg-ATPase in the preparation from the thyroid is specifically changed by the modification of the molecular environment of the enzyme with trypsin or basic polyamino acids.

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.

Cardiac microsomes were incubated with [gamma-32P]ATP and a cardiac adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP)-dependent protein kinase in the presence of ethylene glycol bis(bets-aminoethyl ether)-N,N'-tetraacetic acid. After solubilization in sodium dodecyl sulfate and fractionation by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, a single microsomal protein component of approximately 22,000 daltons was found to bind most of the 32P label. The 32P labeling of this component increased several fold when NaF was included in the incubation medium. No other component of cardiac microsomes, including sarcoplasmic reticulum ATPase protein, contained significant amounts of 32P label. This 22,000-dalton phosphoprotein formed by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase had stability characteristics of a phosphoester rather than an acyl phosphate. Washing of microsomes with buffered KCl did not decrease the amount of 32P labeling to the 22,000-dalton protein, suggesting that this protein is associated with the membranes of sarcoplasmic reticulum rather than being a contaminant from other soluble proteins. The 22,000-dalton protein was susceptible to trypsin. Brief digestion with trypsin in the presence of 1 M sucrose did not significantly affect microsomal calcium transport activity, but prevented both subsequent phosphorylation of the 22,000-dalton protein and stimulation of calcium uptake by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, suggesting that this protein is a modulator of the calcium pump. These results are consistent with previous findings (Kirchberger, M.A., Tada, M., and Katz, A.M. (1974) J. Biol. Chem. 249, 6166-6173; Tada, M., Kirchberger, M.A., Repke, D.I., and Katz, A.M. (1974) J. Biol. Chem. 249, 6174-6180) that cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase-catalyzed phosphorylation is associated with stimulation of calcium transport in the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum, and further indicate that this phosphorylation occurs at a component of low mass (22,000 daltons) of the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum which, while separable from the calcium transport ATPase protein (100,000 daltons) by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, has the ability to regulate calcium transport by the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum.

1. The uncoupler-stimulated ATPase activity of castor bean endosperm mitochondria and submitchondrial particles has been studied. The rate of ATP hydrolysis catalyzed by intact mitochondria was slow and little enhanced by addition of uncouplers at the concentration required for uncoupling the oxidative phosphorylation. ATP-ase activity was stimulated at higher concentrations of uncouplers. 2. 1-Anilinonaphthalene 8-sulfonate fluorescence was decreased when the mitochondria were oxidizing succinate. Carbonylcyanide-p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone and antimycin reversed the succinate-induced fluorescence diminution. ATP did not induce the fluorescence response. 3. The addition of succinate, NADH or ascorbate/N,N,N'-N'-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine as electron donor induced high ATPase activity in the presence of low concentrations of uncouplers. Stimulating effect of uncouplers was completely abolished by further addition of antimycin. 4. Submitochondrial particles were prepared by sonication. The particles catalyzed a rapid hydrolysis of ATP and carbonylcyanide-p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone at 10-8 M did not stimulate the ATPase activity. Addition of succinate induced uncoupler-stimulated ATPase activity. The effect of succinate was completely abolished by further addition of antimycin. 5. The treatment of submitochondrial particles by trypsin or high pH also induced uncoupler-stimulated ATPase activity. 6. The above results were interpreted to indicate that ATPase inhibitor regulated the back-flow reaction of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation.

The exposure of proteins at the surface of isolated chromatophores (i.e., the cytoplasmic face of intracytoplasmic membranes) of Rhodospirillum rubrum was studied by proteolysis as well as by enzymatic iodination with 125I. Analyses were performed after polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of chromatophore proteins solubilized with sodium dodecyl sulfate. Reversible light induced proton uptake by partially digested chromatophores was used as a criterion for the integrity of the permeability barrier and thus, as evidence for proteolysis only of proteins outside of this barrier. Trypsin or alpha-chymotrypsin completely cleaved four proteins which were identified as the heavy subunit of succinate dehydrogenase (Mr = 64 000), the alpha- and beta-subunits of coupling factor ATPase (Mr = 55 000 and 51 000), and the heavy (H) subunit of photochemical reaction centers (Mr = 31 000). alpha-Chymotrypsin, in addition, attacked the protein (Mr = 9000) of light harvesting bacteriochlorophyll preparations. By enzymatic iodination, the same proteins were labeled as were digested with trypsin or alpha-chymotrypsin except for the protein of Mr = 9000. In addition, significant label was incorporated into three more proteins, one of which (Mr = 41 000) could be identified as a major protein of the cell wall. The complete cleavage with trypsin of four proteins exposed at the surface indicated that isolated chromatophores were homogeneously oriented regardless of the method employed for cell breakage, i.e., passage through a French pressure cell at different forces or osmotic shock of sphaeroplasts.
