The Ca-regulatory system in squid mantle muscle was studied. The findings were as follows. (a) Squid mantle myosin B (squid myosin B) was Ca-sensitive, and its Ca-sensitivity was unaffected by addition of a large amount of rabbit skeletal myosin (skeletal myosin) or rabbit skeletal F-actin (skeletal F-actin). (b) Squid myosin was prepared from the mantle muscle. It showed a heavy chain component and two light chain components in the SDS-gel electrophoretic pattern: the molecular weights of the latter two were 17,000 and 15,000. Actomyosin reconstituted from squid myosin and skeletal (or squid) actin showed Ca-sensitivity in superprecipitation and Mg-
ATPase
assays. EDTA- treatment had no effect on the Ca-sensitivity of squid myosin. (c) Squid mantle actin (squid actin) was prepared by the method of Spudich and Watt. Hybrid actomyosin reconstituted by using the pure squid actin preparation with skeletal myosin showed no Ca-sensitivity in Mg-
ATPase
assay, whereas that reconstituted using crude squid actin showed marked Ca-sensitivity. The crude squid actin contained four protein components which were capable of associating with F-actin in 0.1 M KCl, 1 mM MgCl2 and 20 mM Tris-maleate (pH7.5). (d) Native tropomyosin was prepared from squid mantle muscle, and it conferred Ca-sensitivity on skeletal actomyosin as well as on a hybrid actomyosin reconstituted from squid actin and skeletal myosin. (e) Squid native tropomyosin was separated into troponin and tropomyosin fractions by placing it in 0.4 M LiCl at pH 4.7. The troponin fraction was further purified by
DEAE
-cellulose chromatography. Squid troponin thus obtained was different in mobility from rabbit skeletal or carp dorsal troponin; three bands of squid troponin corresponded to molecular weights of 52,000, 28,000, and 24,000 daltons. It could confer Ca-sensitivity in the presence of tropomyosin on skeletal actomyosin as well as on a hybrid reconstituted from squid actin and skeletal myosin. (f) Squid myosin B, and two hybrid actomyosins were compared as regards Ca and Sr requirements for their Mg-
ATPase
activities. The myosin-linked regulatory system rather than the thin-filament-linked regulatory system was predominant in squid myosin B. Squid myosin B required higher Ca2+ and Sr2+ concentrations for Mg-
ATPase
activity; half-maximal activation of Mg-
ATPase
was obtained at 0.8 micron Ca2+ and 28 micron Sr2+ with skeletal myosin B, and at 2.5 micron Ca2+ and 140 micron Sr2+ with squid myosin B.

Two enzymes hydrolyzing ATP (
ATPase
A and
ATPase
B) were purified from freshly isolated lymphocytes of human tonsils. Both enzymes are stimulated by single-stranded DNA and seem to be localized in the chromatin.
ATPase
A and
ATPase
B appear to be distinct enzymes as judged from their elution profiles obtained after
DEAE
-cellulose and ATP-Sepharose column chromatography, from their behavior towards actinomycin D, a DNA intercalating agent, and from their sensitivity to monovalent salt concentration.

A carrier protein mediating alanine transport was purified from the membranes of the thermophilic bacterium PS3, by ion exchange chromatography in the presence of both Triton X-100 and urea. The alanine carrier was recovered in the nonadsorbed fraction from either
DEAE
- or CM-cellulose columns, suggesting that its isoelectric point was in the neutral pH region. The final preparation contained virtually no electron transfer components,
ATPase
, or NADH dehydrogenase. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate revealed that the final preparation consisted of two major protein components with molecular weights of 36,000 and 9,400. Active transport of alanine after incorporation of the alanine carrier into reconstituted proteoliposomes was driven not only by an artificial membrane potential generated by potassium ion diffusion via valinomycin but also by mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase incorporated into the same liposomes and supplemented with both cytochrome c and ascorbic acid. The membrane-integrated portion (TFo) of the
ATPase
complex uncoupled alanine transport by conducting protons across the membrane.

SV40 T-antigen
was isolated from hamster tumors and purified about 1600-fold by the procedure including successive ammonium sulfate precipitation, chromatography on
DEAE
-cellulose, preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and elimination of the bulk of contaminating cell proteins by the interaction with antibodies to the tissues of normal hamsters. The resulting preparation was not quite homogenous being contaminated with some of cell proteins left. T-antigen in the tumor extract was revealed at least in three distinct forms with molecular weight of 100 000, 200 000, and 400 000. It is proposed that these forms correspond to mono-, di-, and tetramers of the basal protein of T-antigen, although the alternative explanation, the existence of complex of T-antigen with cell proteins, cannot be ruled out.

When cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase was purified from isolated smooth muscle layer of human aorta by
DEAE
-cellulose column chromatography, separated cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase activity was markedly stimulated in the presence of 10-20 micrometer of Ca2+ by a protein modulator which has similar physicochemical properties to troponin C. Synthetic compound, N-(6-aminohexl)-5-chloro-1-naphthalensulfonamide, which produced relaxations of arteries contracted by prostaglandin F2alpha or KCl was found to inhibit selectively this Ca2+-dependent cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase. This compound produced inhibition of superprecipitation of myosin B system obtained from mouse skeletal muscle and also inhibited
adenosine triphosphatase
activity of myosin B. Our data suggest that calcium is involved through a protein modulator in cyclic nucleotide metabolism of vascular smooth muscle and that the calcium-dependent protein modulator probably participates in the regulation of contractile response of vascular smooth muscle by affecting actomyosin
ATPase
activity.

A protein antigenically related to the simian virus (SV 40) A gene product has been purified to near homogeneity from cells infected with the adenovirus-SV 40 hybrid virus Ad2(+)D2 and shown to contain
ATPase
(
ATP phosphohydrolase
,
EC 3.6.1.3
) and protein kinase (ATP:phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) activity. Both enzymatic activities copurify with the protein through six stages including one gel filtration column, two ion exchange columns, and a heparin affinity column. Analogous fractions from extracts of cells uninfected or infected with adenovirus 2 alone do not contain these enzymatic activities. The D2 hybrid protein resolves into two forms (I and II) during ion exchange chromatography. Form I, the major species (85%) of the D2 hybrid protein, elutes from
DEAE
-Sephadex in 0.37 M NaCl and is able to catalyze the hydrolysis of ATP to ADP + P(i) at a rate of 3 mumol/hr per mg. The remaining 10-15% of the D2 hybrid protein consists of form II which elutes from
DEAE
-Sephadex in 0.29 M NaCl and is able to hydrolyze ATP as well as to incorporate phosphorus from ATP into either the D2 hybrid protein itself or other protein acceptors such as phosvitin. Although both forms are able to bind DNA, the
ATPase
activity of form I cosediments with SV 40 DNA more efficiently than does the protein kinase activity of form II during glycerol gradient centrifugation. The
ATPase
activity of form I is efficiently inhibited by addition of anti-T gamma globulin to the reaction mixture whereas control gamma globulin has no effect. Similarly, the phosphorylation of the D2 hybrid protein by form II is inhibited by anti-T gamma globulin. By contrast, phosphorylation of phosvitin is specifically inhibited by antibody only when the immune complex is removed from the reaction mixture. Thus, it appears likely that one and possibly two enzymatic activities are carried out by the D2 hybrid protein. These findings are discussed in terms of mechanisms of SV 40 DNA replication and virally induced transformation.

Four DNA-dependent ATPases have been isolated from E. coli extracts. ATPases I and III, both sensitive to NEM, require denatured DNA but differ in their heat sensitivity, elution from
DEAE
-cellulose, and sedimentation coefficient. ATPases II and IV are both resistant to NEM. ATPase II requires partially denatured DNA, whereas
ATPase
IV can be stimulated by SS DNA.
ATPase
I is a DNA-unwinding enzyme; ATPase II may be involved in recombination.

1. Addition of a non-dialysable, heat-labile and acid-precipitable factor which was not absorbed on
DEAE
-cellulose column, could restore the sensitivity of the chromatographed muscle pyruvate kinase from Marphysa sanguinea towards phosphocreatine inhibition. 2. This factor, being non-specific as it acts on pyruvate kinase isozymes from different sources, demonstrated high creatine kinase activity. 3. High concentrations of ADP, creatine or replacement of ADP with IDP/UDP or high pH abolished the inhibition indicating that the inhibition was mediated through creatine kinase by depleting ADP. 4. Apparent inhibition of phosphocreatine was related to the relative activities of 3 intracellular enzymes--pyruvate kinase, creatine kinase and
adenosine triphosphatase
.

The ATP-energy transducing system in membranes of Escherichia coli is inhibited by dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. The protein component of this complex with which carbodiimides covalently react to inhibit function was previously identified by labeling wild type and dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-resistant mutants with dicyclohexyl[14C]carbodiimide (Fillingame, R. H. (1975) J. Bacteriol. 124, 870-883). This specific carbodiimide-reactive protein has now been purified. The protein was extracted from the membrane with chloroform:methanol and chromatographed on
DEAE
-cellulose and hydroxypropyl Spehadex G-50 in this sulvent mixture. The resultant 700-fold purification yielded a protein that was homogeneous on dodecyl sulfate-acrylamide gel electrophoresis and virtually free of phospholipid. It remained soluble in neutral chloroform:methanol throughout the purification procedure. The amino acid composition of the purified protein was extraordinary in that only 16% of the amino acids present could be considered polar. Histidine, serine, cysteine, and tryptophan were not found. Abnormally high contents of methionine, glycine, alanine, and leucine were present. One mole of lysine and threonine were found/mole of dicyclohexyl[14C]carbodiimide bound. The minimum molecular weight based on the amino acid composition was 8400. The specific carbodiimide-reactive protein has also been purified without prior modification by dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. The unmodified protein eluted from
DEAE
-cellulose at a higher salt concentration than the dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-modified form, which suggested that the reaction with the carbodiimide neutralized the negative charge. Only one-third of the total carbodiimide-reactive protein in the membrane was modified by dicyclohexylcarbodiimide under conditions which maximally inhibited
adenosine triphosphatase
activity. These results rais the possibility that the carbodiimide-reactive protein may be present as an oligomer in the energy-transducing complex. The purification of the unmodified carbodiimide-reactive protein should permit assessment of tis biological function, particularly its role in the protein-translocation process that is catalyzed by this energy-transducing complex.

An acidic calcium-binding protein was isolated from the soluble fraction of the homogenate of ox neurohypophyses. The protein has a molecular weight of 35 000 and a subunit weight of 15 000. The purification procedure involved ammonium sulphate fractionation,
DEAE
-cellulose chromatography and gel filtration on Sephadex G-100 and Sephadex G-50. Conventional and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis demonstrated it to be a protein distinct from the S-100 protein and the soluble hormone-binding proteins (neurophysins) abundant in the neurohypophysis. This appears to be the only Ca2+-binding protein in the soluble part of the homogenate, with an apparent Kdiss for Ca2+ of 1.1 X 10(-5) M (at 22 degrees C) and a binding capacity of 2 mol of calcium per mol of protein. Two different Ca2+-binding proteins of molecular weights 16 500 and 68 000, respectively, were identified in the sodium-deoxycholate-soluble proteins from an ox neurohypophysial microsome fraction. One of them (the former) has been isolated in high purity by
DEAE
-cellulose chromatography and gel filtration on Sephadex G-200. This protein binds 4 mol of calcium per mol of protein with an apparent Kdiss of 1.0 X 10(-5) M (at 22 degrees C). The sodium-deoxycholate-insoluble proteins from the microsomal fraction also have Ca2+-binding components. The soluble Ca2+-binding protein has properties similar to and may be identical to Ca2+-binding proteins which have been isolated from bovine brain and have been demonstrated to be modulators of brain cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase and of actinomyosin
ATPase
. It also resembles Ca2+-binding proteins isolated from bovine adrenals and the electroplax from electrophorus electricus.
