The characterization and localization of a Ca(2+)-ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) in the tooth germ of the porcine fetus are reported. This enzyme, a microsome fraction, is preferentially activated by Ca(2+). In the presence of 0.5 mM ATP, maximal enzyme activity is obtained at 0.5--1.0 mM CaCl2. The maximal rate of ATP hydrolysis is approx. 20 mumol per h per mg of protein as the enzyme preparation is used here. At optimal Ca(2+) concentration, the Mg(2+) has an inhibitory effect. The enzyme does not require Na+ or/and K+ for activation by Ca(2+). Other nucleotide triphosphates may serve as the substrate, but V for ATP is the highest. The Km for ATP is 8.85 - 10(-5) M. The optimal pH for Ca(2+) activation of the enzyme lies around 9.2. Well known inhibitors of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, mitochondria ATPase and Ca(2+)-ATPase in the erthrocyte do not inhibit the enzyme. In the subcellular order the enzyme may be assumed to be localized in the smooth endoplasmic reticulum fraction containing cell and Golgi body membrane fragments and in the tissue order in the enamel organ containing an ameloblast layer, stratum intermedium and stellate reticulum.

Reconstituted actomyosin (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) (0.400 mg F-actin/mg myosin) in 10.0 muM ATP loses 96% of its specific ATPase activity when its reaction concentration is decreased from 42.0 mug/ml down to 0.700 mug/ml. The loss of specific activity at the very low enzyme concentrations is prevented by the addition of more F-actin to 17.6 mug/ml. It is concluded that at low actomyosin concentrations the complex dissociates into free myosin with a very low specific ATPase activity and free F-actin with no ATPase. The dissociation of the essential low molecular weight subunits of myosin from the heavy chains at very low actomyosin concentrations may be a contributing factor. Actomyosin has its maximum specific activity at pH 7.8-8.2. The Km for ATP is 9.4 muM, which is at least 20-fold greater than myosin's Km for ATP. The actin-activated ATPase of myosin follows hyperbolic kinetics with varying F-actin concentrations. The Km values for F-actin are 0.110 muM (4.95 mug/ml) at pH 7.4 and 0.241 muM (10.8 mug/ml) at pH 7.8. The actin-activated maximum turnover numbers for myosin are 9.3 s-1 at pH 7.4 and 11.6 s-1 at pH 7.8. The actomyosin ATPase is inhibited by KCl. This KCl inhibition is not competitive with respect to F-actin, and it is not a simple form of non-competitive inhibition.

An HCO-3-activated and SCN--inhibited ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) found in homogenates of intestinal mucosa of the eel was solubilized by Triton X-100. Optimal HCO-3-concentration and pH for the enzyme were 25 mM and 8.7, respectively. HCO-3-ATPase activity in both homogenate and solubilized preparations increased after seawater adaptation. This adaptive increase in enzyme activity was also observed in the gills and the kidney. The HCO-3-ATPase seems to be related to transport mechanisms, especially for Cl-, in osmoregulatory surfaces of the eel.

The inhibition of guinea-pig heart (Na+ + K+)-ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase EC 3.6.1.3) by calcium has been studied at pH 7.4, 6.8 and 6.4. 1. A decrease in pH reduced the threshold inhibitory concentration of calcium and the calcium concentration producing an inhibition of 50% of the enzyme activity. 2. Calcium reduced the apparent affinity of the enzyme of Na+, this effect occurred only at pH 7.4. 3. Calcium increased the apparent affinity of the enzyme for K+, this effect was enhanced at acidic pH. 4. Activation of the enzyme by Na+ for a constant Na+ : K+ ratio has been studied at pH 7.4 and at pH 6.8 in the absence and in the presence of 3.10(-4) M Ca 2+; the results of this experiment indicate that Ca2+ effect at pH 7.4 was not influenced by Na+ -- K+ competition and was probably due to a Na+ -- Ca2+ interaction. 5. At pH 7.4, the calcium inhibitory threshold concentration and the concentration producing 50% inhibition were reduced when Na+ was low; at pH 6.8, the calcium inhibition was not markedly modified by the change of Na+ concentration. 6. The Ca2+ -activated ATPase of myosin B which is related to the contractile behaviour of muscle and the Ca2+ -ATPase of the sarcoplasmic reticulum which is related to the ability of this structure to accumulate calcium were activated in a range of calcium concentration producing an inhibition of (Na2+ + K+) -ATPase. The present results indicate that the increase by acidity of the (Na2+ + K+) -ATPase sensitivity to calcium might be due to a suppression of a Na+ -Ca2+ interaction. On the basis of these observations, it is proposed that calcium might inhibit the Na+ -pump during the repolarization phase of the action potential and that, by this effect, it might control cell excitability.

31P nuclear magnetic resonance spectra at 145.7 MHZ were obtained of concentrated suspensions of E. coli cells. The position of the Pi resonance was used to determine the pH, and in most experiments it was possible to distinguish the intracellular (pHin) and extracellular (pHex) values. During respiration pHin approached 7.55, while pHex varied from 6.0 to 8.0. With succinate as a carbon source and in a N2 environment, pHin - pHex. Upon addition of glucose, pHin greater than pHex. In the presence of an ATPase (adenosinetriphosphatase; ATP phosphohydrolase; EC 3.6.1.3) inhibitor dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, pHin remained equal to pHex even in the presence of glucose. In other experiments, oxygenation brought pHin above pHex even in the presence of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. These experiments are consistent with Mitchell's hypothesis that, first, delta pH can be created by the reversal of the ATPase reaction and, second, that protons are pumped outward during respiration. In addition to Pi, about 10 more resonances were resolved, several of which were assigned to different phosphate metabolites.

(Na+ + K+)-ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) was purified from human cadaver renal tissue and exhibited a linear reaction rate with time. 100 g of whole kidney would yield 1--3.5 mg protein with a specific activity of 50--200 mol - kg-1 - h-1 for (Na+ + K+)-ATPase. The preparation was completely inhibited by 100 micronM ouabain with a Ki of 1.8 micronM. K+-dependent phosphatase increased during purification of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase to 7.8 mol - kg-1 - h-1. There was no detectable Mg2+-ATPase in the final preparation. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide disc gel electrophoresis yielded three protein peaks of 117 000, 92 500, and 56 000 daltons. The peptide band corresponding to 92 500 daltons underwent an Na+-dependent phosphorylation with [gamma-32P]-ATP. The band at 56 000 daltons stained for glycoprotein. The Km for ATP was 0.38 mM and that for Mg2+ was 0.5 mM. The formation of ADP and inorganic phosphate from ATP was stoichiometric. The Km for Na+ in the presence of 20 mM K+ was 16 mM and the Km for K+ in the presence of 100 mM Na+ was 1.5 mM. The temperature optimum was 51degrees C and the pH optimum was 7.0. (Na+ + K+)-ATPase in whole homogenate, microsomes, and NaI-treated microsomes exhibited a slowing of reaction rate (non-linearity) with time such that the enzyme was inactive by 10--15 min of reaction. This non-linearity was eliminated during purification. The significance is discussed.

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. Calcium binding to (Na+ + K+)-ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) preparations from beef and pig heart preparations of varying degrees of purity was measured. 2. Binding was inhibited by Mg2+, Na+ and K+. Inhibition by Na+ and K+ appeared to be due to an ionic strength effect. 3. Four classes of binding sites were identified with Kd values for calcium of about 0.03, 1, 15 and 200 micrometer. 4. Cyclic AMP-dependent phosphorylation of the enzyme by protein kinase (ATP: protamine O-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.70) had no effect on (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity. 5. Phosphorylation also had no effect on either Kd or Bmax for calcium binding at any of the four sites whether measured in the presence of absence of NaCl or KCl. 6. It is concluded that previous reports of an effect of phosphorylation on calcium binding to a (Na+ + K+)-ATPase preparation may have been due to the presence of membrane material not directly associated with (Na+ + K+)-ATPase.

Free-flow electrophoresis was used to subfractionate membrane vesicles from calf thymocyte plasma membranes. The fractionation resulted in a separation of vesicle populations bearing four different enzymes: alkaline nitrophenyl-phosphatase (orthophosphoric-monoester phosphohydrolase (alkalin optimum) EC 3.1.3.1), gamma-glutamyltransferase (EC 2.3.2.2), (Mg2+ + Na+ + K+)-ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) and acyl-CoA:lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase (acyl-CoA:1-acylglycero-3-phosphocholine-O-acyltransferase, EC 2.3.1.23). The specific content of cholesterol and total phospholipid coincided with the distribution of membrane-bound protein. However, vesicles migrating towards the cathode had a higher molar ratio of cholesterol to phospholipid (0.75) compared to those migrating to the anode (0.55). Sodium dodecyl sulphate-gel electrophoresis of pooled vesicle fractions also demonstrates distinct differences in their protein pattern. Electron-micrographic thin sections show that the vesicle populations have a similar morphology and size distribution. These results are discussed in terms of heterogeneity of the original thymocytes, contamination with intracellular membranes and a heterogeneous structure of the plasma membrane.

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.
