To define the mechanism responsible for the slow rate of calcium transport by cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum, the kinetic properties of the Ca2+-dependent ATPase of canine cardiac microsomes were characterized and compared with those of a comparable preparation from rabbit fast skeletal muscle. A phosphoprotein intermediate (E approximately P), which has the stability characteristics of an acyl phosphate, is formed during ATP hydrolysis by cardiac microsomes. Ca2+ is required for the E approximately P formation, and Mg2+ accelerates its decomposition. The Ca2+ concentration required for half-maximal activation of the ATPase is 4.7 +/- 0.2 muM for cardiac microsomes and 1.3 +/- 0.1 muM for skeletal microsomes at pH 6.8 and 0 degrees. The ATPase activities at saturating concentrations of ionized Ca2+ and pH 6.8, expressed as ATP hydrolysis per mg of protein, are 3 to 6 times lower for cardiac microsomes than for skeletal microsomes under a variety of conditions tested. The apparent Km value for MgATP at high concentrations in the presence of saturating concentrations of ionized Ca2+ is 0.18 +/- 0.03 ms at pH 6.8 and 25 degrees. The maximum velocity of ATPase activity under these conditions is 0.45 +/- 0.05 mumol per mg per min for cardiac microsomes and 1.60 +/- 0.05 mumol per mg per min for skeletal microsomes. The maximum steady state level of E approximately P for cardiac microsomes, 1.3 +/- 0.1 nmol per mg, is significantly less than the value of 4.9 +/- 0.2 nmol per mg for skeletal microsomes, so that the turnover number of the Ca2+-dependent ATPase of cardiac microsomes, calculated as the ratio of ATPase activity to the E approximately P level is similar to that of the skeletal ATPase. These findings indicate that the relatively slow rate of calcium transport by cardiac microsomes, whem compared to that of skeletal microsomes, reflects a lower density of calcium pumping sites and lower Ca2+ affinity for these sites, rather than a lower turnover rate.

The brush border of intestinal epithelial cells consists of an array of tightly packed microvilli. Within each microvillus is a bundle of 20-30 actin filaments. The basal ends of the filament bundles are embedded in and interconected by a filamentous meshwork, the terminal web, which lies directly beneath the microvilli. When calcium and ATP are added to isolated brush borders that have been treated with the detergent, Triton X-100, the microvillar filament bundles rapidly retract into and through the terminal web region. Biochemical studies of brush border contractile proteins suggest that the observed microvillar contraction is actomyosin mediated. We have shown previously that the major protein of the brush border's actin (Tilney, L. G., and M. S. Mooseker. 1971. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 68:2611-2615). The brush border also contains a protein with the same molecular weight as the heavy chain subunit of myosin (200, 000 daltons). In addition, preparations of demembranated brush borders exhibit potassium-EDTA ATPase activity of 0.02 mumol phosphate/mg-min (22 degrees C); this assay is diagnostic for myosin-like ATPase isolated from vertebrate sources. Other proteins of the brush border include a 30,000 dalton protein with properties similar to those of tropomyosin, and a protein with the same molecular weight as the Z band protein, alpha-actinin (95,000 daltons). How these observations bear on the basis for microvillar movements in vivo is discussed within the framework of our recent model for the organization of actin and myosin in the brush border (Mooseker, M. S., and L. G. Tilney. 1975. J. Cell Biol. 67:725-743).

Preillumination of Rhodospirillum rubrum chromatophores with strong, far-red light in the presence of phenazine methosulfate under non-phosphorylation conditions results in a selective, irreversible inactivation (typically about 70%) of photophosphorylation and of uncoupler-stimulated dark ATPase. The time course of the photoinactivation is similar to the light-on kinetics of the light-induced proton uptake in the absence of ADP. Only little photoinactivation occurs when the uncoupler carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenyl hydrazone is present or when phenazine methosulfate is absent during the preillumination, indicating that the reaction occurs only when the membrane is energized. Phosphorylation conditions offer a practically complete protection against the photoinactivation. Inorganic phosphate, Mg2+ or ADP do not provide a significant protection against the photoinactivation, nor does ATP. The pH-dependence of the reaction(s) leading to photoinactivation may indicate that a partial reaction of the photophosphorylation process (perhaps only a conformational change of the coupling factor) precedes the photoinactivation.

Some of the characteristics of the pyrophosphatase and ATPase activities studied in isolated cartilage matrix vesicles were found to be similar to those already reported for the solubilized and purified bone alkaline phosphatase. Thus, the pH optimum of the pyrophosphatase activity responded similarly to changes in the concentration of Mg2+, Ca2+, and PPi. Further, the ATPase activity was not activated by Ca2+ in the presence of an optimal Mg2+ concentration. It is proposed that a function of the alkaline phosphatase of matrix vesicles in vivo is to hydrolyze the substrates PPi, ADP, and ATP, which are known inhibitors of calcium phosphate precipitation.

The early kinetic steps of actomyosin subfragment 1 (acto-S1) adenosine triphosphatase have been investigated by simultaneous monitoring of fluorescence and light scattering and also by observation of the time course of the production of phosphate. The results show that fluorescence enhancement occurs after the dissociation of actomyosin and that the rate of enhancement is similar to the maximum rate of enhancement for S1 alone, under similar conditions of pH and temperature. The maximum rate of the phosphate burst for acto S1 is also approximately the same as that for S1 alone. The maximum rates for fluorescence enhancement or phosphate formation are reached at much lower adenosine triphosphate concentrations for acto-S1 than for S1. An extension of the actomyosin scheme is presented which accounts for these results.

The relation between the intramitochondrial and extramitochondrial ratio ATP/ADP, the transmembrane potential and pH gradient is investigated in the present communication. For this purpose mitochondria are equilibrated with added [14C]ATP in the presence of substrate and oligomycin for eliminating phosphate transfer by ATPase. The membrane potential was measured by the distribution of 86Rb+ in the presence of valinomycin, the deltapH by the distribution of [14C]acetate. In the energized state by varying deltapsi between 60 and 160 mV, the internal (ATP/ADP)i is decreased 30-fold, the external (ATP/ADP)e remains largely constant. As a result, the deltalog (ATP/ADP)e/(ATP/ADP)i = deltalogphi is increased linerly with deltapsi according to the following relation: deltalogphi = 0.85 deltapsi - 0.35. The deltapH was changed between 0.1 and 0.8 by increasing the Pi concentration causing only a minor decrease of deltalogphi would be expected if the ATP-ADP exchange has a significant electroneutral portion. Also in the uncoupled and respiration-inhibited state the same function between deltalogphi and deltapsi is found as in the energized states. It is concluded that under these conditions the ATP-ADP exchange is largely electrical.

This review has attempted to cover some of the findings that have been made in the mechanism of gastric secretion in recent years. It is hard to offer any firm conclusions, whether at the level of stimulus, metabolism, or the terminal process of secretion. However, some generalizations may be possible. At least amphibian gastric secretion is stimulated by cAMP as a second messenger, with histamine presumably acting as the primary messenger. The resultant metabolic change is due largely to a direct stimulation of catabolism, which in dog appears to be the metabolism of hexose, through the glycolytic process, the hexose monophosphate shunt, and the Krebs' cycle with cytoplasmic reduction and mitochondrial oxidation of pyridine nucleotides. No evidence could be obtained for changes in high energy phosphate or for lipolysis. One would expect gastric mucosal membranes during secretion to contain an anion-restricted electrogenic H+ pump, but they in fact contain an ATPase stimulated by monovalent cations and are insensitive to ouabain. In addition, hog or dog gastric membranes have the vectorial properties of H+ absorption, Rb+ extrusion, and ANS fluorescence enhancement with the addition of ATP, as well as protein phosphorylation by 32P dependent on a K+ gradient.

The adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activities of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL) were studied with an assay that monitored the release of 32P-labeled inorganic pyrophosphate (32P1) from gamma-[32P]adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP). In cell homogenates, (Na+ + K+)-sensitive, ouabain-inhibitable ATPase comprised an insignificant fraction of the total ATPase activity. Additions of p-nitrophenyl phosphate and beta-glycerophosphate (substrates for nonspecific acid and alkaline phosphatases) and of tartrate (inhibitor of acid phosphatase) gave no indication of inhibition. This suggested that the assay was relatively specific for ATP hydrolysis. The activity was found to have a pH optimum of 8.7 and a Km for ATP of 0.6 mM. There was an absolute requirement for Mg2+, with other divalent cations substituting less efficiently. When the Mg2+-dependent ATPase activity of intact cells was compared with that in homogenized cells, no significant difference was observed. The activity in intact cells was linear with respect to incubation time up to at least l0 min. Trypan blue staining and lactate dehydrogenase assays revealed that greater than 92% of the PMNL remained intact and viable during the assay. No soluble ATPase was released from the cells under assay conditions. In following the distribution of gamma[32P]ATP and 32P2 counts became cell associated. Since the experimental evidence supports the observation that PMNL remain intact and viable and that ATP does not penetrate the cell under assay conditions, it is proposed that greater than 90% of the Mg2+-dependent ATPase of the human PMNL is associated with a plasma membrnae enzyme. This would qualify the enzyme for the role of a plasma membrane marker for future fractionation and isolation attempts.

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.
