The isolated rectal gland of Squalus acanthias was stimulated to secrete chloride against an electrical and a chemical gradient when perfused in vitro by theophylline and/or dibutyryl cyclic AMP. Chloride secretion was depressed by ouabain which inhibits Na-K-ATPase. Thiocyanate and furosemide also inhibited chloride secretion but ethoxzolamide, a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor, did not. Chloride transport was highly dependent on sodium concentration in the perfusate. The intracellular concentration of chloride averaged 70-80 meq/liter in intact glands, exceeding the level expected at electrochemical equilibrium and suggesting active transport of chloride into the cell. These features suggest a tentative hypothesis for chloride secretion by the rectal gland in which the uphill transport of chloride into the cytoplasm is coupled through a membrane carrier to the downhill movement of sodium along its electrochemical gradient. The latter is maintained by the Na-K-ATPase pump while chloride is extruded into the duct by electrical forces.

The fluorescent sulfhydryl reagent S-mercuric-N-dansyl cysteine (Dn-Cys-Hg+) has been used to label a purified preparation of the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase obtained from the electric organ of Electrophorous electricus. The labelled (Na+ +K+)-ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3), although reversibly inhibited, was capable of undergoing conformational changes associated with the active enzyme that could be monitored fluorometrically. The presence of ligands (Na+ + Mg2+ + ATP or Mg2+ + Pi) which are known to convert the enzyme from the E-1 state to the E-2-P state brought about large (97--100%) increases in fluorescence of the dimethylaminonaphthalene sulfonyl (Dn) label. An E-2 state could be achieved by the addition of Mg2+ which caused only a 32.3% increase in fluorescence over the E-1 state. Neither AMP nor TTP with or without Mg2+ or Na+ or Pi added without Mg2+ had any effect on the Dn fluorescence. If the enzyme was denatured, no fluorescence changes were observed. Small changes in the polarization of fluorescence of the Dn moiety were observed under all the conditions used. These small polarization changes and the large increases in the fluorescence intensity suggest that the enzyme can change conformational states in the presence of appropriate ligands and these conformational changes may take place in a relatively limited region of the protein's structure.

Studies were carried out to determine the relationship between metabolic histopathological changes in the gastrocnemius muscle of rats in which an acute exudative inflammation had been induced by alkyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride (alkyl-DBAC, a cationic surfactant). Succinate respiration, Na+-K+-Mg2+ ATPase activity and ATP, ADP and AMP levels were determined as the index of metabolic changes. Myofascial edematous swelling with the acceleration of succinate oxidation and Na+-K+-Mg2+ ATPase activity was noted at 30 minutes in the inflamed muscle. The ATP level was also transiently reduced. On the other hand, Na+-K+-Mg2+ ATPase activity and succinate oxidation were inhibited by alkyl-DBAC, at this concentration, in vitro. These results support the possibility that enhancement of energy metabolism is not directly initiated by alkyl-DBAC but may be the result of certain chemical mediators released by alkyl-DBAC. The enhancement of energy metabolism continued after 1 hour and this energy may initiate leukocyte migration as well as increase vascular permeability and edema.

An extension of a previous model [2] is proposed of the glycolysis of erythrocytes which includes realistic rat laws for the hexokinase-phosphofructokinase system and for the 2,3-P2G phosphatase. Whereas most conclusions previously drawn are reinforced, the mechanism of ATP regulation is different in the present model. The ATP concentration is mainly regulated by the inhibitory action of ATP and the activating effect of AMP on the phosphofructokinase. The role of the 2,3-P2G bypass as a buffer of changes in the ATP demand is of lesser significance than previously thought. Besides the feedback action of the adenine nucleotides on the hexokinase-phosphofructokinase system in the quasisteady state the role of 2,3-P2G as an energy source is important since it can yield ATP for a certain period of time. The present version of the model describes qualitatively the experimental data on the modulation of Na+-K+-ATPase.

The properties of anion-sensitive ATPase of rat heart mitochondria were studied. Na2CO3, NaHCO3 and Na2SO3 stimualted ATPase activity by 69, 41 and 110%, respectively. Azide, tiocinate and perchlorate inhibited bicarbonate-stimulated ATPase. Bivalent cations increased ATPase activity in such a sequence: Zn2+ greater than or equal to Cd2+ greater than or equal to Co2+ greater than or equal to Mg2+ greater than or equal to Mn2+ greater than Ni2+. In the presence of bicarbonate and sulfite. ATPase activity was maximally stimulated with magnesium. Ni2+ and Ca2+-ions inhibited Mg2+-dependent activity of bicarbonate-stimulated ATPase. AMP uninhibited ATPase activity. The 4 mM concentration of ADP inhibited activity of HCO-3-ATPase. Activity of ATPases decreased at lower temperatures. The properties of anion-sensitive ATPase of rat heart mitochondria and that of HCO-2-ATPase of other cells are discussed.

ADP and the ATP analogs Nb-S6ITP (6-[(3-carboxy-4-nitrophenyl)thio]-9-beta-D-ribofuranosylpurine 5'-triphosphate) and AMP-P(NH)P (adenyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate) interact with soluble plasma membrane ATPase (F1) from Micrococcus species in two ways: (i) at short incubation times, these inhibitors exhibit the kinetics of competitive inhibition, (ii) at long incubation times, these inhibitors induce an inactivation of the ATPase which can be reversed only in the case of AMP-P(NH)P. Kinetic treatment of the long term inactivation by ADP or Nb-S6ITP reveals a pseudo-first order process via the formation of an enzyme-inhibitor complex for which a Km analogous constant is obtained that is identical with the corresponding Ki value of the competitive inhibition. The long term inactivation by ADP and Nb-S6ITP involves the successive "tight" binding of 6 +/- 1 nucleotides/F1 molecule. One additional ADP molecule/F1 complex which is also "tightly" bound has no effect on the ATPase activity. The long term inactivation by ADP and Nb-S6ITP is inhibited at higher inhibitor concentrations according to a kinetics analogous to a substrate excess inhibition. Evidence is presented indicating that the mechanism of ATP hydrolysis by F1 and the long term inactivation by ADP or Nb-S6ITP are related processes. The mechanism of long term inactivation by AMP-P(NH)P appears to be different from that of ADP or Nb-S6ITP.

ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) activity was shown in the soluble fraction of rat liver micochondria. Two molecular forms (ATPase 1 and 2) were isolated. ATPase 1 has already been studied. The present paper deals with the purification method of ATPase 2 which was achieved by the following steps: (NH4)2SO4 precipitation. DEAE-cellulose chromatography, hydroxyapatite chromatography, Sephadex G100 filtration and AMP-Sepharose affinity chromatography. The purified protein was characterized by bidimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Molecular weight evaluated by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and Sephadex G100 gel filtration was found to be 61 500 +/- 3000.

Cytochemical techniques have been employed to study the localization of adenylate cyclase and (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-stimulated ATPase activities in platelets after fixation. Biochemical analysis of adenylate cyclase demonstrated a 70% reduction in activity in homogenates from fixed cells, but the residual activity could be stimulated 10--20 times by prostaglandin E1 (1 micrometer) under the same incubation conditions as employed in the cytochemical studies (e.g. media containing 2 mM lead nitrate and 10 mM NaF). Adenylate cyclase activity employing 5'-adenylyl-imiodiphosphate (AMP-P(NH)P) as substrate was found to be associated with the dense tubular system (smooth endoplasmic reticulum) in intact fixed platelets, and was apparent only when the cells were incubated with prostaglandin E1. Less activity was found along the membranes of the surface connected open canalicular system and occasionally at the outer cell surface. Enzymatic activity was blocked by the adenylate cyclase inhibitor 9-(tetrahydro-2-furyl) adenine and was not due to AMP-P(NH)P phosphohydrolase activity. The low adenylate cyclase activity in the surface membranes may be due to enzyme inactivation as a result of fixation, since a surface membrane fraction obtained by the glycerol lysis technique from unfixed cells had an adenylate cyclase specific activity equivalent to that in the microsomal membrane fraction. (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-stimulated ATPase activity was found associated with the membranes of the surface connected open canalicular system in unfixed cells. After brief fixation (5--15 min) with glutaradehyde, strong (Ca2+ + Mg2+)ATPase activity became apparent in the dense tubular system. Longer periods of fixation inactivated enzymatic activity. Addition of Ca2+ (1.0 mM) to incubation medium with low Mg2+ (0.2 mM), or increasing Mg2+ to 4.0 mM, in both cases strongly stimulated enzyme activity. The ATPase activity in the platelet membranes was not inhibited by ouabain. It is suggested that the Ca2+-stimulated ATPase and adenylate cyclase activities in the dense tubules may possibly be involved in regulation of intracellular Ca2+ transport.

A comparative study has been made of the effects of a variety of inhibitors on the plasma membrane ATPase and mitochondrial ATPase of Neurospora crassa. The most specific inhibitors proved to be vanadate and diethylstilbestrol for the plasma membrane ATPase and azide, oligomycin, venturicidin, and leucinostatin for mitochondrial ATPase. N,N'-Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, octylguanidine, triphenylsulfonium chloride, and quercetin and related bioflavonoids inhibited both enzymes, although with different concentration dependences. Other compounds that were tested (phaseolin, fusicoccin, deoxycorticosterone, alachlor, salicyclic acid, N-1-napthylphthalamate, triiodobenzoic acid, cyclic AMP, cyclic GMP, theobromine, theophylline, and histamine) had no significant effect on either enzyme. Overall, the results indicate that the plasma membrane and mitochondrial ATPases are distinct enzymes, in spite of the fact that they may play related roles in H+ transport across their respective membranes.

The effects of adenylyl methylene diphosphate (AMD), a non-hydrolyzable ATP analogue, were examined in sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles isolated from rabbit skeletal muscle. The Ca2+-dependent APTase activity measured at 5 degrees C and pH 7.0 in 5.2 micrometer [gamma-32P]ATP and in the absence of added alkali metal salts was stimulated by added AMD. The steady state level of phosphoenzyme, however, was not decreased greatly by added AMP under these conditions. The hydrolysis of the phosphoenzyme formed at the steady state in the absence of added alkali metal salts was accelerated by added AMD to an extent that can account for the stimulation of the ATPase activity. At 5 degrees C and pH 7.0 the maximum stimulation of phosphoenzyme hydrolysis by AMD and the Km value for this ATP analogue were 4.3-fold and 40 micrometer, respectively. These results provide further support for our previous conclusion (Shigekawa, M., Dougherty, J.P. and Katz, A.M. (1978) J.Biol. Chem. 253, 1442--1450) that 2 classes of ATP site exist in the calcium pump ATPase in the absence of added alkali metal salts, one being the catalytic site and the other being the regulation site which activates the activity of the catalytic site.
