The phospholipid-dependence of the (Na-++K-+)-dependent ATPase (adenosine triphosphatase) (EC 3.6.1.3) and associated K-+-dependent phosphatase activity (EC 3.6.1.7) have been compared. Unlike the (Na-++K-+)-dependent ATPase activities, the K-+-dependent phosphatase activities of a number of different preparations were not closely correlated with their total phospholipid contents. After partial lipid depletion with a single extraction in Lubrol W the residual ATPase and phosphatase activities were correlated, but their magnitudes were quite different: on average only about 5% of the former remained compared with 50% of the latter. A similar differential effect on these activities was found after extraction with deoxycholate. In contrast with the ATPase, consistent restoration of the phosphatase activity of Lubrol-extracted enzymes by added exogenous phospholipids was not observed. We conclude that, although the K-+-dependent phosphatase may be lipid-dependent, the lipid requirement must be different from that of the complete ATPase system, and this difference should help investigations of their relationship.

Mg2+, Na+, K+-ATPase and K+-acetylphosphatase activities in the brain subcellular membrane structures were studied as affected by ultrasound. Effect of ultrasound depends both on the conditions of sonication and the initial state of membrane fractions. The ATPase activity in the NaI-treated microsomal fraction decreases after sonication. The treatment of microsomal myelin, synaptosomal and mitochondrial fractions with EDTA solutions (5-10(-5)--2-10(-2) M) causes an inhibition in the Mg2+, Na+, K+-ATPase. The ATPase activity of these so-called EDTA-fractions increases after a short-term sonication. Activation of the Mg2+, Na+, K+-ATPase of EDTA-microsomal fraction with a sonication is accompanied by an activation of K+-acetylphosphatase. In contrast to the ATPase activity, the acetylphosphatase one is manifested after a longer effect of ultrasound as well. The maximum of acetylphosphatase activation with sonication coincides with the maximum of Mg2+, Na+, K+-ATPase activation. The content of unmasked SH-groups in the studied fractions decreases after sonication. When EDTA-fractions are affected by sonication, which is accompanied by an increase in the ATPase activity, the number of SH-groups in all the fractions, except for mitochondria, increases.

The K+-acetylphosphatase and K+-p-nitrophenylphosphatase activities in the fraction of brain microsomes were studied as affected by anionic (sodium desoxycholate and sodium dodecyl sulphate) and nonionic (triton X-100 and digitonin) surface-active substances. The most activating concentrations of these substances are determined and their similarity with those for Na+, K+-ATPase is marked. According to the character of the effect on the K+-phosphatase and Na+, K+-ATPase activities, the studied surface-active substances are grouped on the basis of the molecule configurations, rather than ionogenic factor. Their activating effect is supposed to result from an increase in the number of functioning catalytic centres rather than the molecular activity of the enzyme. It is shown that the digitonin high concentrations may completely inhibit the Na+, K+-ATPase activity and to some extent retain the K+-acetylphosphatase activity.

We studied the effect of muscle acylphosphatase on the Ca2+ pumping ATPase of heart sarcolemma. Acylphosphatase addition to calmodulin-depleted sarcolemmal vesicles produced a significant increase in the rate of Ca(2+)-dependent ATP hydrolysis, even higher than obtained with exogenously added calmodulin. Maximal stimulation (about four fold over basal value) was obtained with 550 units/mg vesicle protein, a concentration that fall within the physiological range. Conversely, similar amounts of acylphosphatase decreased the rate of ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport into the sarcolemmal vesicles. The maximal statistically significant inhibition of Ca2+ uptake was observed with the same acylphosphatase concentration that gave the maximal stimulation of Ca(2+)-ATPase activity. From these findings acylphosphatase appears to reduce the efficiency of heart sarcolemmal Ca2+ pump with an impairment of the coupling between ATP hydrolysis and Ca2+ transport. A possible mechanism of this effect is discussed.

Acylphosphatase, purified from human erythrocytes, actively hydrolyzes the acylphosphorylated intermediate of human red blood cell membrane Ca(2+)-ATPase. This effect occurred with acylphosphatase amounts (up to 10 units/mg membrane protein) that fall within the physiological range. Furthermore, a very low Km value, 3.41 +/- 1.16 (S.E.) nM, suggests a high affinity in acylphosphatase for the phosphoenzyme intermediate, which is consistent with the small number of Ca(2+)-ATPase units in human erythrocyte membrane. Acylphosphatase addition to red cell membranes resulted in a significant increase in the rate of ATP hydrolysis. Maximal stimulation (about 2-fold over basal) was obtained at 2 units/mg membrane protein, with a concomitant decrease in apparent Km values for both Ca2+ and ATP. Conversely, similar amounts of acylphosphatase significantly decreased (by about 30%) the rate of Ca2+ transport into inside-out red cell membrane vesicles, albeit that reduced apparent Km values for Ca2+ and ATP were also observed in this case. A stoichiometry of 2.04 Ca2+/ATP hydrolyzed was calculated in the absence of acylphosphatase; in the presence of acylphosphatase optimal concentration, this ratio was reduced to 0.9. Acylphosphatase activity, rather than just protein, was essential for all the above effects. Taken together these findings suggest that, because of its hydrolytic activity on the phosphoenzyme intermediate, acylphosphatase reduces the efficiency of the erythrocyte membrane Ca2+ pump. A possible mechanism for this effect is that the phosphoenzyme is hydrolyzed before its transport work can be accomplished.

Acylphosphatase, purified from human erythrocytes, actively hydrolyzes the phosphoenzyme intermediate of human red blood cell membrane Na+, K(+)-ATPase. This effect occurred with acylphosphatase amounts (up to 10 units/mg membrane protein) that fall within the physiological range. Acylphosphatase addition to erythrocyte membranes resulted in a significant increase in the rate of Na+, K(+)-dependent ATP hydrolysis. Maximal stimulation, observed with 10 units/mg membrane protein, was of about 80% over basal value. The same acylphosphatase amount enhanced of about 40% the rate of ATP driven Na+ transport into inside out red cell membrane vesicles. Taken together these findings suggest a potential role of acylphosphatase in the control of the activity of erythrocyte membrane Na,K pump.

To explore a possible role of acylphosphatase in the regulation of energy metabolism, we measured this enzyme's activity and content in skeletal muscle, liver and erythrocytes of normal and tri-iodothyronine treated rabbits. Besides acylphosphatase we assayed (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, Ca2(+)-ATPase and several enzymes of carbohydrate metabolism. Acylphosphatase activity in erythrocytes rose steadily during treatment with triiodothyronine (25 micrograms/Kg per day for 5 weeks), and its increase occurred earlier and was much more pronounced than that of other soluble enzymes. In erythrocytes of treated animals (Na+ + K+)-ATPase declined whereas Ca2(+)-ATPase activity increased, in agreement with previously reported findings. In muscle and liver of the treated animals acylphosphatase activity was about twice as high as in the controls; in these tissues we found also increased activities for (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase and glucose-6-phosphatase. In any case, among the enzymes we examined, acylphosphatase was one of the most strongly and regularly stimulated by the treatment. Furthermore we observed, through an immunochemical procedure, that there was a congruence between increases in acylphosphatase activity and content. On the basis of these results we conclude that the rise in acylphosphatase levels in treated animals is probably due to its increased biosynthesis. The possible significance of these findings in the metabolic modifications associated with hyperthyroidism are discussed.

We studied the effect of human acylphosphatase on the activity of human erythrocyte membrane Ca2(+)-ATPase. Both the acylphosphatase that is contained in hemolysate and the purified enzyme isolated from red blood cells were able to stimulate Ca2(+)-ATPase activity in erythrocyte membranes. Given the same acylphosphatase activity, however, the hemolysate showed higher stimulatory effect than the purified enzyme. Acylphosphatase stimulation was additive to that induced by calmodulin, thus indicating that acylphosphatase acts in a calmodulin-independent manner. Trifluoperazine, a calmodulin antagonist, did not inhibit acylphosphatase-induced stimulation of Ca2(+)-ATPase activity. Acylphosphatase significantly decreased the rate of Ca2+ influx into inside-out erythrocyte membrane vescicles, thus acting as Ca2+ pump inhibitor. Taken together these findings indicate that acylphosphatase is a soluble, non-calmodulin activator of erythrocyte membrane Ca2(+)-ATPase and might be involved in the control of calcium transport across the plasma membrane.

Hexokinase, lactate dehydrogenase, acylphosphatase, (Na+,K+)-ATPase and Ca2(+)-ATPase of selected areas from postmortem Alzheimer's disease brains were studied. Hexokinase and lactate dehydrogenase were significantly changed in all the examined subcortical nuclei. (Na+,K+)-ATPase activity was altered in several areas of Alzheimer's disease brains. No changes in Ca2(+)-ATPase and acylphosphatase were observed. The main alterations of the assayed enzymes were observed in subcortical areas but not in cortical areas of Alzheimer's disease brains.

(Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity of a dog kidney enzyme preparation was markedly inhibited by 10-30% (v/v) dimethyl sulfoxide (Me2SO) and ethylene glycol (Et(OH)2); moreover, Me2SO produced a pattern of uncompetitive inhibition toward ATP. However, K+-nitrophenylphosphatase activity was stimulated by 10-20% Me2SO and Et(OH)2 but was inhibited by 30-50%. Me2SO decreased the Km for this substrate but had little effect on the Vmax below 30% (at which concentration Vmax was then reduced). Me2SO also reduced the Ki for Pi and acetyl phosphate as competitors toward nitrophenyl phosphate but increased the Ki for ATP, CTP and 2-O-methylfluorescein phosphate as competitors. Me2SO inhibited K+-acetylphosphatase activity, although it also reduced the Km for that substrate. Finally, Me2SO increased the rate of enzyme inactivation by fluoride and beryllium. These observations are interpreted in terms of the E1P to E2P transition of the reaction sequence being associated with an increased hydrophobicity of the active site, and of Me2SO mimicking such effects by decreasing water activity: (i) primarily to stabilize the covalent E2P intermediate, through differential solvation of reactants and products, and thereby inhibiting the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase reaction and acting as a dead-end inhibitor to produce the pattern of uncompetitive inhibition; inhibiting the K+-acetylphosphatase reaction that also passes through an E2P intermediate; but not inhibiting (at lower Me2SO concentrations) the K+-nitrophenylphosphatase reaction that does not pass through such an intermediate; and (ii) secondarily to favor partitioning of Pi and non-nucleotide phosphates into the hydrophobic active site, thereby decreasing the Km for nitrophenyl phosphate and acetyl phosphate, the Ki for Pi and acetyl phosphate in the K+-nitrophenylphosphatase reaction, accelerating inactivation by fluoride and beryllium acting as phosphate analogs, and, at higher concentrations, inhibiting the K+-nitrophenylphosphatase reaction by stabilizing the non-covalent E2.P intermediate of that reaction. In addition, Me2SO may decrease binding at the adenine pocket of the low-affinity substrate site, represented as an increased Ki for ATP, CTP and 3-O-methylfluorescein phosphate.
