MgATPase activity of plasma membrane from sunflower roots purified by phase partitioning was tested using different permeabilizing agents. MgATPase activity showed similar dependence on Triton X-100, digitonin and Zwittergent 3-14 concentration, the curves resulted from the stimulatory and inhibitory reactions. The latency calculated at their optima was only 52%. In case of n-octyl glucoside the latency was 77%, while the highest latency (82%) was measured in the presence of lysophosphatidylcholine, and it was the only surfactant which did not inhibit the PM ATPase even at 10 times the concentration giving maximum release of latent activity. Therefore, for the further characterization of the PM ATPase lysophosphatidylcholine is suggested to be used as detergent.

Limited tryptic digestion of fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-labeled (H+-K+)-ATPase from rat resting light gastric membranes produced a soluble 27-kDa polypeptide which retained the fluorescence of the parent enzyme. Its production was markedly enhanced in the presence of an amphiphilic detergent, Zwittergent 3-14, which potently inhibits the ATPase activity. This increase is probably due to protection of certain tryptic cleavage sites through conformational changes of the membrane enzyme by the detergent. The NH2-terminal sequence of the 27-kDa polypeptide corresponded exactly to that beginning at Asn-369 of the cDNA-deduced primary structure of the rat ATPase. The presence of the phosphorylation site, Asp-385, and FITC-labeled Lys-517, which is known to be a part of the ATP-binding site, indicates that the 27-kDa polypeptide contains a major cytoplasmic portion of (H+-K+)-ATPase. Interestingly, the polypeptide was stained with periodate-Schiff's base, indicating its glycoprotein nature. The carbohydrate group attached to the polypeptide seems to include at least an N-linked high-mannose moiety, since the polypeptide showed Con A binding activity as detected with a Con A-biotin/avidin-peroxidase assay on nitrocellulose transblots. Also, its Con A binding activity was inhibited by excess methyl alpha-D-mannopyranoside and disappeared upon treatment of the polypeptide with endoglycosidase H and N-glycanase. Further tryptic action converted the 27-kDa polypeptide to 2 smaller FITC-labeled polypeptides of 25 and 15 kDa, which lost 18 and 96 amino acid residues, respectively, from the NH2 terminus of the parent polypeptide.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

K+- and ATP-dependent H+-accumulation in rat heavy gastric membrane vesicles enriched with (H+-K+)-ATPase was markedly stimulated by amphiphiles like lysophosphatidylcholine and Zwittergent 3-14 at concentrations of 10(-5) M. Their stimulatory effect was dependent on K+-concentration in the medium and was abolished by SCH 28,080, a specific inhibitor of (H+-K+)-ATPase. Lysophosphatidylcholine at the optimal dose (3 X 10(-5) M) showed dual effects on K+-dependent membrane functions; it stimulated the rate of K+-uptake by nearly 60%, but partially inhibited SCH 28,080-sensitive and K+-dependent ATP-hydrolysis (about 20% reduction). These data indicate that H+-pumping through (H+-K+)-ATPase in the inside-out gastric membrane vesicles was facilitated by the stimulatory effect of lysophosphatidylcholine on membrane K+-transport in spite of its partial inhibition of ATP-hydrolysis. It appears that the rate limiting step for operation of the ATPase is the availability of K+ ions in the luminal side of the pump. We propose that ionic amphiphiles may modulate K+-transport in rat heavy gastric membranes through specific interactions with the putative K+-transporter.

ATP stimulation of plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase activity from a wild baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) was followed under conditions of progressive degrees of purification. A particular emphasis was put to cover a wide range of concentrations which went from 2 microM up to 3000 microM ATP. The preparations used were (i) crude membrane fraction, (ii) untreated plasma membrane fraction obtained by differential centrifugation, (iii) residual plasma membrane treated with Triton X-100, (iv) enzyme solubilized with either Zwittergent 3-14 alone or after Triton X-100 treatment. Under all conditions the fitting of the dose-response curves required an equation composed by the sum of two Michaelian terms. Depending on the treatment, the Km values and Vmax values varied. The fitted curves displayed a high affinity-low Vmax (Km values of 7-60 microM and Vmax values of 0.03-0.50 mumol P(i)/mg per min) and a low affinity-high Vmax component (Km values of 408-1960 microM and Vmax values of 0.26-5.82 mumol P(i)/mg per min). The complex ATP activation curve of the yeast plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase is in line with similar behavior found for the H(+)-ATPase of higher plants and all known animal cation transport ATPases.

The proton-translocating F1F0 ATP synthase from Clostridium thermoautotrophicum was solubilized from cholate-washed membranes with Zwittergent 3-14 at 58 degrees C and purified in the presence of octylglucoside by sucrose gradient centrifugation and ion-exchange chromatography on a DEAE-5PW column. The purified enzyme hydrolyzed ATP at a rate of 12.6 micromol min(-1) mg(-1) at 58 degrees C and pH 8.5. It was composed of six different polypeptides with molecular masses of 60, 50, 32, 19, 17, and 8 kDa. These were identified as alpha, beta, gamma, delta, epsilon, and c subunits, respectively, as their N-terminal amino acid sequences matched the deduced N-terminal amino acid sequences of the corresponding genes of the atp operon sequenced from Clostridium thermoaceticum (GenBank accession no. U64318), demonstrating the close similarity of the F1F0 complexes from C. thermoaceticum and C. thermoautotrophicum. Four of these subunits, alpha, beta, gamma, and epsilon, constituted the F1-ATPase purified from the latter bacterium. The delta subunit could not be found in the purified F1 although it was present in the F1F0 complex, indicating that the F0 moiety consisted of the delta and the c subunits and lacked the a and b subunits found in many aerobic bacteria. The c subunit was characterized as N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide reactive. The F1F0 complex of C. thermoautotrophicum consisting of subunits alpha, beta, gamma, delta, epsilon, and c was reconstituted with phospholipids into proteoliposomes which had ATP-Pi exchange, carbonylcyanide p-trifluoromethoxy-phenylhydrazone-stimulated ATPase, and ATP-dependent proton-pumping activities. Immunoblot analyses of the subunits of ATP synthases from C. thermoautotrophicum, C. thermoaceticum, and Escherichia coli revealed antigenic similarities among the F1 subunits from both clostridia and the beta subunit of F1 from E. coli.

Syringomycin, a peptide toxin produced by the phytopathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv syringae preferentially stimulated (2-fold) the vanadate-sensitive ATPase activity associated with the plasma membrane of red beet storage tissue. The toxin had a very slight effect on the tonoplast ATPase and had no detectable effect on the mitochondrial ATPase. Optimal stimulation was achieved with 10 to 50 micrograms of syringomycin per 25 micrograms of membrane protein. Treatment of membranes with 0.1% (weight/volume) deoxycholate eliminated the activation effect, and enzyme solubilized with Zwittergent 3-14 was not affected by syringomycin. ATPase activity was activated to the same extent at KCl concentrations ranging from 0 to 50 millimolar. Valinomycin, nigericin, carbonylcyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone, and gramicidin did not increase the plasma membrane ATPase activity. However, these ionophores did not hinder the ability of syringomycin to stimulate the activity. We suggest that syringomycin does not increase ATPase activity by altering membrane ion gradients nor directly interacting with the enzyme, but possibly through regulatory effectors or covalent modification of the enzyme.
