The adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase) (EC 3.6.1.3) activity in Azotobacter vinelandii concentrates in the membranous R3 fraction that is directly associated with Azotobacter electron transport function. Sonically disrupted Azotobacter cells were examined for distribution of ATPase activity and the highest specific activity (and activity units) was consistently found in the particulate R3 membranous fraction which sediments on ultracentrifugation at 144 000 X g for 2 h. When the sonication time interval was increased, the membrane-bound ATPase activity could neither be solubilized nor released into the supernatant fraction. Optimal ATPase activty occurred at pH 8.0; Mg2+ ion when added to the assay was stimulatory. Maximal activity always occurred when the Mg2+:ATP stoichiometry was 1:1 on a molar ratio at the 5 mM concentration level. Sodium and potassium ions had no stimulatory effect. The reaction kinetics were linear for the time intervals studied (0-60 min). The membrane-bound ATPase in the R3 fraction was stimulated 12-fold by treatment wiTH TRypsin, and fractionation studies showed that trypsin treatment did not solubilize ATPase activity off the membranous R3 electron transport fraction. The ATPase was not cold labile and the temperature during the preparation of the R3 fraction had no effect on activity; overnight refrigeration at 4 degrees C, however, resulted in a 25% loss of activity as compared with a 14% loss when the R3 fraction was stored overnight at 25 degrees C. A marked inactivation (although variable, usually about 60%) did occur by overnight freezing (-20 degrees C), and subsequent sonication failed to restore ATPase activity. This indicates that membrane reaggregation (by freezing) was not responsible for ATPase inactivation. The addition of azide, ouabain, 2,4-dinitrophenol, or oligomycin to the assay system resulted in neither inhibition nor stimulation of the ATPase activity. The property of trypsin activation and that ATPase activity is highest in the R3 electron transport fraction suggests that its probable functional role is in coupling of electron transport to oxidative phosphorylation.

Studies into the activity of adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) in homogenates of liver, cerebral cortex, renal cortex, and mucosa of small intestine of swine have shown differentiated activity patterns, with peak activity developing in the liver. This has been related to a particularly high metabolism performance of the liver in fattening pigs. No difference was found to exist between magnesium activation of ATPase of swine tissue homogenates and that in tissue obtained from ruminants. ATPase which could be activated by sodium and potassium ions and inhibited by ouabain was detectable from cerebral and renal cortex. Sodium and potassium ATPases accounts from some 25 per cent of the total activity. ATPase that could be stimulated by calcium ions was recorded only from liver homogenate. The optimum pH values of ATPase were between 7.5 and 8 in the liver, 9 in mucosa of small intestine, and 9.5 in cerebral and renal cortex.

The requirement of actual splitting of ATP for endocytosis in erythrocyte ghosts has been confirmed by use of the ATP analog, 5'-adenylylimidodiphosphate, (AMP-P(NH)P). This compound, in which the oxygen connecting the beta and gamma phosphorus atoms was replaced by an NH group, did not cause endocytosis nor was it a substrate for ATPase activity. AMP-P(NH)P was a competitive inhibitor both for the endocytosis and the Mg2+-ATPase activities. The K1 of AMP-P(NH)P for Mg2+ ATPase activity was 2.0 - 10-4 M and, while the Km of ATP for this activity was also 2.0 - 10-4 M indicating nearly identical affinities of ATP and AMP-P(NH)P for the active site. ADP, or ADP plus orthophosphate, did not cause endocytosis, showing that endocytosis was not due to binding of the products of ATP hydrolysis. Sodium or potassium ion or ouabain had no effect on endocytosis, which eliminated the possibility of involvement of the Na+, K+ ATPase in the endocytosis process. Calcium could not be substituted for magnesium; rather it inhibited endocytosis at the concentration of 1 - 10-3 M. EGTA relieved the inhibitory effect of Ca, which indicated that the binding of calcium to the membrane was reversible. These experimental results reaffirm the conclusion that ATP must be split to engender endocytosis under these conditions. Some characteristic parameters of the hemoglobin-free porcine erythrocyte ghosts were studied in order to characterize the system more adequately.

Sodium and potassium ion-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase ((Na+ + K+)-ATPase) was partially purified from canine brain gray matter and reconstituted into vesicles of phosphatidylcholine. A proportion of the enzyme molecules was reconstituted into sealed vesicles with the ATP-hydrolyzing site facing the outside of the vesicles. ATP was added to the outside of the vesicles after they had equilibrated with radioactive tracer, and the resulting active transport of Na+ and K+ was followed. Unlike the purified kidney renal medulla enzyme used in an earlier study, the brain enzyme transports both Na+ and K+(Rb+). Vesicles were made in solutions with different proportions of NaCl and KCl, and over the range studied, an average of 1.8 Rb+ ions were transported for every 3 Na+ ions. When ATP is depleted, the transported ions diffuse back to their equilibrium level in the vesicles.

Sodium and potassium adenosine triphosphatase ((Na + K)-ATPase) consists of two polypeptides, a large molecular weight polypeptide (MW 84,000 to 102,000) and a sialoglycoprotein (MW 35,000 to 57,000). Trypsin treatment of this complex selectively cleaves the large polypeptide into two fragments with molecular weights of 62,000 and 43,000. Simultaneously with the appearance of these fragments, (Na + K)-APTase activity is destroyed. Trypsin treatment of phosphorylated enzyme shows that he 43,000 molecular weight fragment is phosphorylated. If (Na + K)-ATPase is digested with trypsin in the presence of ATP, a 90,000 molecular weight fragment is produced. Disappearance of the large polypeptide, and loss of ATPase activity parallel the production of this fragment. Addition of strophanthidin to this mixture significantly lowers the amount of the 90,000 molecular weight fragment produced. Experiments on (Na + K)-ATPase of the red cell membrane suggest that trypsin is cleaving (Na + K)-ATPase at the interior surface of the plasma membrane.

Sodium reabsorption is low in coldblooded animals (the lamprey Lampetra fluviatilis, red salmon Oncorhynchus nerka, carp Cyprinus carpio, frog Rana temporaria, tortoise Agryonemis horsfieldi) being much higher in warmblooded ones (chicken, pigeon, rat). High level of Na transport in warmblooded animals is paralleled by high activity of succinate dehydrogenase as compared with the activity of Na,K-ATPase. The content of monoenoic fatty acids in the glycerophosphatides from frog and tortoise kidneys is higher than that from pigeon and rat ones.

Sodium-potassium-activated adenosine triphosphatase (Na-K-ATPase) is associated with electrolyte transport in many tissues. To help delineate its role in intestinal transport, changes in rat intestinal electrolyte and water transport induced by injecting methylprednisolone acetate 3 mg/100 g or deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA) 0.5 mg/100 g per day for 3 days were correlated with changes in Na-K-ATPase activity. Methylprednisolone increased sodium and water absorption, potassium secretion, transmural potential difference, and Na-K-ATPase activity in the jejunum, ileum, and colon. Examination of isolated epithelial cells demonstrated that the jejunal and ileal increase in Na-K-ATPase occurred in both the villus tip and crypermeability, Mg-ATPase, and adenylate cyclase activities were unchanged by methylprednisolone. DOCA increased sodium and water absorption, potassium secretion, transmural potential difference, and Na-K-ATPase activity in the colon alone. Colonic Mg-ATPase and adenylate cyclase activities were unaffected. Jejunal and ileal enzyme activity, electrolyte transport, and permeability were unchanged by DOCA. Methylprednisolone and DOCA were not additive in their effect on colonic Na-K-ATPase activity. Methylprednisolone and DOCA increased electrolyte and water transport and Na-K-ATPase activity concomitantly in specific segments of small intestine and colon. These data are consistent with an important role for Na-K-ATPase in intestinal electrolyte and water transport.

Sodium and potassium ion-activated adenosine triphosphatase is the enzyme responsible for the active transport of sodium and potassium across the plasma membrane. Strophanthidin, from the external surface of the membrane, and an antibody, from the cytoplasmic surface, bind simultaneously to the large polypeptide subunit of the enzyme. These results demonstrate that this polypeptide chain must span the plasma membrane, having different surfaces exposed on each side. When (Na+ + K+)-ATPase is incubated in the presence of cupric phenanthroline, a reagent which catalyzes the oxidation of cysteine residues to form intermolecular and intramolecular disulfide bonds, a covalent dimer of the larger chains is formed. Several characteristics of this dimerization reaction are consistent with the proposal that at least a noncovalent dimer of large chains exists in the native enzyme. These conclusions are discussed in the context of a specific description for the molecular mechanism of active transport.

The total ATPase activity of the rabbit skeletal muscle nuclei was established to be a sum of activities of two ATPases--Mg2+ and Mg2+, Ca2+-ATPases. The latter composes 50% of total ATPase activity for skeletal muscles nuclei of the normal rabbits and 30% for skeletal muscles nuclei of the rabbits with muscular dystrophy. Mg+, Ca2+-ATPase of the skeletal muscle nuclei is activated by calcium ions within a range of 10(-6)--10(-4) M and is inhibited with its concentration of 0.5-10(-3) M and higher. Sodium and potassium ions activate Mg2+, Ca2+-ATPase. Inhibition of Mg2+-ATPase is observed for the skeletal muscle nuclei of the rabbits in norm with the presence of 80 mM of Na+ and 70 mM of K+ in the incubation medium. Under experimental muscular dystrophy such an effect is not observed in connection with the fact that the concentration of monovalent cations in the incubation medium does not exceed 60 mM. The ATPase activity in nuclei of the rabbit skeletal muscles may be also manifested in the presence of Mn2+ greater than Ca2+ greater than Ba2+. A problem is under discussion as to substitution of ions Mg2+ by ions Mn2+, Ca2+, Ba2+ in manifestation of the Mg2+ATPase activity for the skeletal muscle nuclei of the normal rabbits and of those with experimental dystrophy.

Sodium- and potassium-activated adenosine triphosphatase (NaK-ATPase) was purified from nasal salt glands of the duck (Anas platyrhynchos). Enzyme of specific activity 2,000 to 2,300 mumol of Pi/mg/hour was routinely obtained by sodium dodecyl sulfate treatment of a microsomal fraction of gland homogenate in the presence of 3 mM ATP followed by pelleting of the enzyme through a sucrose density gradient. Purified NaK-ATPase was stable for over 3 months at -20 degree. By sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and gel filtration chromatography purified NaK-ATPase was shown to contain two polypeptide chains of molecular weight 94,000 and 60,000, the smaller of which was a glycoprotein. Purified enzyme of activity 2,300 mumol of Pi/mg/hour bound 3,600 pmol of ouabain/mg of enzyme protein. Reaction with [gamma-32P]ATP in the presence of Mg2+ and Na+ gave 7,025 pmol of acyl phosphate/mg of enzyme protein. The turnover number calculated from phosphorylation data was 5,460 min-1. Amino acid analysis of the polypeptide components of duck salt gland enzyme after separation by gel filtration chromatography in sodium dodecyl sulfate demonstrated strong compositional homology with highly purified NaK-ATPase preparations from other organs and species. The NH2-terminal amino acid of the 94,000-dalton component was glycine and of the 60,000-dalton component, alanine. With a combination of manual sequencing and automated Edman degradation, the NH2-terminal amino acid sequence of the 94,00-dalton catalytic subunit was found to be Gly-Arg-Asn-Lys-Tyr-Glu-Thr-Thr-Ala-()-Ser-Glu.
