With appropriate preparations of spinish chloroplasts we observe three distinct effects of the nucleotides: 1. An accelaration of the dark decay of the light induced 520 nm absorbance change after ATP addition. 2. An acidification of the internal space of the thylakoids after ATP addition in darkness. 3. A dark ATPase activity which is regulated by the deltapH across the membrane. We conclude that the effect of the nucleoside triphosphates on the 520 nm signal is linked to a change of the proton conductivity of the membrane, induced by the formation of a deltapH across the membrane in consequence of the dark ATPase activity. The mode of action of the nucleoside diphosphates in the presence of inorganic phosphate on the 520 nm signal is discussed. It is proposed that the effects observed are linked to the hydrolysis of the newly formed nucleoside triphosphates.

ATPase was detected in the membranes of a motile Streptococcus. Maximal enzymic activity was observed at pH 8 and ATP/Mg2+ ratio of 2. Mn2+ and Ca2+ could replace Mg2+ to some extent. Besides ATP, GTP and ITP were substrates. The enzyme was inhibited by N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide but not by sodium azide, uncouplers or bathophenanthroline. An electrochemical gradient of protons, which was artificially imposed across the membranes of Streptococcus cells by manipulation of either the K+ diffusion potential or the transmembrane pH gradient, led to ATP synthesis. ATP synthesis was abolished by proton conductors, an inhibitor of the ATPase or an increase in the extracellular K+ concentration. A comparison between the phosphate potential and the electrochemical proton gradient showed that the data found are in agreement with a stoichiometry of 2 protons translocated per molecule ATP synthesized.

Reversible gamma-PO3 transfer in ATP reactions can be recognized by exchange of 18O from the beta,gamma-bridge position to the beta-P-nonbridge positions: (see article). Such intramolecular exchange is less demanding for the detection of the bond cleavage than the usual ATP:ADP isotope exchange because it does not require dissociation of bound ADP from the intermediate complex. Acyl phosphate intermediates are indicated for the glutamine synthetase and carbamyl-P synthetase reactions by their extreme requirements for glutamate and bicarbonate, respectively, for positional oxygen exchange. No support is given for E-P or concerted mechanisms. No support is found for an active CO2 in the latter reaction, although this is not ruled out by the data. Positional isomerization in ATP occurs with lamellae from spinach chloroplast only in the light. When the ATP molecule interacts, it also undergoes complete exchange of the gamma-PO3 oxygen with water before it rejoins the pool of free ATP. The difference in rates of the two exchanges suggests that the torsional motion of ADP-beta-PO3 is greatly hindered on the enzyme. This may explain, by the argument of substrate activation, the rapid reversibility of the ATPase reaction on the enzyme.

Phosphorylation of the calcium-transport ATPase of skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum by inorganic phosphate was investigated in the presence or absence of a calcium gradient. The maximum phosphoprotein formation in the presence of a calcium gradient at 20 degrees C and pH 7.0 is approximately 4 nmol/mg sarcoplasmic reticulum protein, but only between 2.4 and 2.8 nmol/mg protein in the absence of a calcium gradient, using Ionophore X-537 A or phospholipase-A-treated sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles. Maximum phosphoprotein formation independent of calcium gradient at 20 degrees C and pH 6.2 is in the range of 3.6--4 nmol/mg protein. Half-maximum phosphoprotein formation dependent on calcium gradient was achieved with 0.1--0.2 mM free orthophosphate at 10 mM free magnesium or at 0.1--0.2 mM free magnesium at 10 mM free orthophosphate. Phosphoprotein formation independent of calcium gradient is in accordance with a model which assumes, firstly, the formation of a ternary complex of the ATPase protein with orthophosphate and magnesium (E . Pi . Mg) in equilibrium with the phosphoprotein (E-Pi . Mg) and, secondly, an interdependence of both ions in the formation of the ternary complex. The apparent equilibrium constant was 0.6 and the apparent dissociation constants KMg, KMg', KPi and KPi' were 8.8, 1.9, 7.2 and 1.5 mM respectively, assuming a total concentration of the phosphorylation site per enzyme of 7 nmol/mg protein.

Pellicles were isolated from Paramecium caudatum for a study of the properties of its insoluble ATPase [EC 3.6.1.3] activity. Pellicular ATPase was solubilized by sonication and fractionated by sucrose density gradient centrifugation. The sedimentation coefficient of the ATPase was about 9S. The ATPase required Ca2+ for maximum activation. Addition of neutral salts to the assay medium inhibited the activity. Substrate specificity for ATP was low; other nucleoside triphosphates were hydrolyzed at about the same rate as ATP; AMP, pyrophosphate, and p-nitrophenyl phosphate were not hydrolyzed. The ATPase activity of the pellicle preparation had a pH optimum at pH 6.5, and a Michaelis constant of 9 micrometer. On the other hand, the enzymatic properties of the ATPase were somewhat modified by the procedure of solubilization and fractionation. The pellicular ATPase does not resemble ciliary dynein ATPase or the soluble ATPase of Tetrahymena.

Anoxia has been compared with ischaemia. The abrupt restoration of either oxygen of flow may accelerate cardiac damage. Anoxic stimulation of glycolysis (Pasteur effect) is inhibited during ischaemia by lactate and proton accumulation at the levels of phosphofructokinase and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. Anaerobic glycolysis provides lactate and ATP; breakdown of the latter provides protons. During partial respiration thought to occur in partial ischaemia, continued production of CO2 is a factor contributing to intracellular acidosis; mitochondrial ATP when formed by continued respiration also yields protons when ultimately broken down. The endoproducts of aerobic glycolysis (pyruvate and NADH) are transported into the mitochondria by the malate-aspartate cycle and by pyruvate dehydrogenase activity. Adenine nucleotide transferase activity normally transfers the mitochondrially-made ATP to the cytoplasm, but acyl CoA accumulates in ischaemia (or during perfusions with high circulating free fatty acids) to inhibit the transferase. The mitochondrial creatine kinase is thought to transform ATP transported outwards into creatine phosphate which can permeate the outer mitochondrial membrane. Further compartmentation of ATP may be by other creatine kinase isoenzymes or in relation to the cell membrane. The glycogenolytic-sarcoplasmic reticulum complex links a glycogen pool to the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Cyclic AMP may regulate admission of calcium to the cell during the plateau of the action potential and promote calcium uptake by the sarcoplasmic reticulum by phosphorylation of phospholamban. The latter promotes the activity of the calcium-transport ATPase. Calcium and cyclic AMP may also interact at the level of the contractile proteins where cyclic AMP phosphrylates troponin. Cyclic GMP generally has opposite effects to cyclic AMP and undergoes opposite changes in the frog cardiac cycle to those of cyclic AMP. A present it is reasonable to suppose that physiological effects of adrenaline or of cholinergic agents on the myocardium are mediated by cyclic AMP or cyclic GMP, respectively, but this hypothesis still lacks firm support. There is an association between tissue cyclic AMP and ventricular fibrillation after coronary ligation, and direct evidence for a role of cyclic AMP in promoting arrhythmias has been obtained by studies on the ventricular fibrillation threshold in the rat heart. However, there are other mechanisms, involving first the effects of substrates on the action potential duration, and secondly, the fast channel, which can also give rise to the development of malignant arrhythmias.

1. The reverse reactions induced by coupled ATP hydrolysis were studied in spinach chloroplasts by measurements of the ATP-induced increase in chlorophyll fluorescence reflecting reverse electron flow, and of the ATP-induced decrease in 9-aminoacridine fluorescence, representing formation of the transthylakoidal proton gradient (deltapH). ATP-induced reverse electron flow was kinetically analysed into three phases, of which only the second and third one were paralleled by corresponding phases in deltapH formation. The rapid first phase and formation of a deltapH occur also in the absence of the electron transfer mediator phenazine methosulfate. 2. The rate and extent of the reverse reactions were measured at temperatures in the range from 0 to 30 degrees C. The rate of formation of delta pH and of reverse electron flow were faster at high temperatures, but the maximal extent of delta pH and chlorophyll fluorescence increase were observed at the lowest temperature. Considering rate and extent of the ATP-stimulated reactions, a temperature optimum around 15 degrees C was found. Light activation of the ATPase occurred throughout the range studied. At 0 degrees C and in the presence of inorganic phosphate the activated state for ATPase was maintained for more than 10 min. 3. The ATP-induced rise in chlorophyll fluorescence yield was found to be of similar magnitude as the rise induced by 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethyl-urea (DCMU), when both were measured with an extremely weak measuring beam. It is concluded, that both effects, although derived via distinctly different pathways, are limited by the same electron donating or electron accepting pool.

Kinetic parameters for the hydrolysis of a number of physiologically important phosphoesters by purified human liver alkaline phosphatase have been determined. The enzyme was studied at pH values of 7.0 to 10.0. The affinity of the enzyme for the compounds was determined by competition experiments and by their direct employment as substrates. Phosphodiesters and phosphonates were not hydrolysed but the latter were inhibitors. Calcium and magnesium ions inhibited the hydrolysis of ATP and PP1 and evidence is presented to show that the metal complexes of these substrates are not hydrolysed by alkaline phosphatase. A calcium-stimulated ATPase activity could not be demonstrated for the purified enzyme or the enzyme in the presence of a calcium-dependent regulator protein. Nevertheless, the influence of magnesium and calcium ions on the ATPase activity of alkaline phosphatase means that precautions must be taken when assaying for Ca2+-ATPase in the presence of alkaline phosphatase. The low substrate Km values and the hydrolysis which occurs at pH 7.4 mean that the enzyme could have a significant phosphohydrolytic role. However, liver cell phosphate concentrations, if accessible to the enzyme, are sufficient to strongly inhibit this activity.

1. The cell-membrane ATP phosphohydrolase of vegetatively grown Clostridium pasteurianum was specifically Mg2+-dependent, but demonstrated significant activity with GTP, CTP and UTP. It displayed approximate Michaelis-Menten kinetics only in the presence of certain effectors (e.g. phosphoenolpyruvate, fructose 1,6-bis-phosphate) which decreased the Km for ATP (to below 2 mM) but also V, whilst extending to pH 5.8 the effective pH range of activity of the enzyme. 2. ATP phosphohydrolase activity of the membrane ATPase (BF0F1) was inhibited by N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, butyricin 7423, Dio-9, 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzofurazan, efrapeptin, leucinostatin and quercetin, and to a lesser degree by aurovertin and citreoviridin. The enzyme was not inhibited by oligomycin, spegazzinine, tributyl tin, triethyl tin or venturicidin. The soluble ATPase (BF1) component differed in not being inhibited by N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, butyricin 7423 or leucinostatin. 3. The ATPase (BF0F1) complex and its soluble (BF1) component were separately purified. 4. Dodecylsulphate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis separated only four polypeptide components in the purified ATPase (BF0F1), with approximate molecular weights (+/- 10%) as follows: subunit a, 65 500; subunit c, 57 500; subunit da, 43 000; subunit fa, 15 000. The soluble (BF1 component contained only the three polypeptide subunits a, c and da. These were present in the BF0F1 preparation in the ratio 2 : 1 : 2; the contribution of subunit fa could not satisfactorily be quantified. 5. Subunit a was identified as the component binding 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzofurazan and subunit fa as the component binding N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. The ATP phosphohydrolase activity of the membrane ATPase was not activated by trypsin treatment and the ATPase (BF0F1) contained no trypsin-sensitive inhibitor protein subunit. 6. Purified ATPase (BF0F1) was incorporated into artificial proteoliposomes which demonstrated ATP-dependent enhancement of 8-anilinonaphthalene-1-sulphonate fluorescence and ATP-dependent proton influx. These reactions were abolished by proton conductors (e.g. carbonylcyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone) by valinomycin in the presence of a high external concentration of K+, or by N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, butyricin 7423, Dio-9, 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzofurazan or leucinostatin. Oligomycin, tributyl tin, triethyl tin and venturicidin were not inhibitory. 7. When stripped of the soluble BF1 component, such ATPase-proteoliposomes demonstrated nil ATP phosphohydrolase activity and did not display ATP-dependent enhancement of 8-anilino-naphthalene-1-sulphonate fluorescence or ATP-dependent protein influx. All of these activities were restored by incubation of the BF1-depleted proteoliposomes with a purified preparation of the soluble BF1 component.

Purified chondrocytic alkaline phosphatase (orthophosphoric-monoester phosphohydrolase (alkaline optimum), EC 3.1.3.1) from bovine fetal epiphyseal cartilage hydrolyzes a variety of phosphate esters as well as ATP and inorganic pyrophosphate. Optimal activities for p-nitrophenyl phosphate, ATP and inorganic pyrophosphate are found at pH 10.5, 10.0 and 8.5, respectively. The latter two substrates exhibit substrate inhibition at high concentrations. p-Nitrophenyl phosphate demonstrates decreasing pH optima with decreasng substrate concentration. Heat inactivation studies indicate that both phosphorolytic and pyrophosphorolytic cleavage occur at the same site on the enzyme. Mg2+ (0.1-10.0 mM) and Mn2+ (0.01-0.1 mM) show a small stimulation of p-nitrophenyl phosphate-splitting activity at pH 10.5. Levamisole, Pi, CN-, Zn2+ and L-phenylalanine are all reversible inhibitors of the phosphomonoesterase activity. Pi is a competitive inhibitor with a Ki of 10.0 mM. Levamisole and Zn2+ are potent non-competitive inhibitors with inhibition constants of 0.05 and 0.04 mM, respectively. The chondrocytic alkaline phosphatase is inhibited irreversibly by Be2+, EDTA, EGTA, ethane-1-hydroxydiphosphonate, dichloromethane diphosphonate, L-cysteine, phenyl-methylsulfonyl fluoride, N-ethylmaleimide and iodoacetamide. NaCL, KCL and Na2SO4 at 0.5-1.0 M inhibit the enzyme. At pH 8.5, the cleavage of inorganic pyrophosphate (pyrophosphate phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.1) by the chondrocytic enzyme is slightly enhanced by low levels of Mg2+ and depressed by concentrations higher than 1mM. Ca2+ show only inhibition. Similar effects of Mg2+ and Ca2+ on the associated ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.1.6.3) activity were observed. Arrhenius studies using p-nitrophenyl phosphate and AMP as substrates have accounted for the ten-fold difference in V in terms of small differences in both the enthalpies and entropies of activation which are 700 cal/mol and 2.3 cal/degree per mol, respectively.
