It is known that the coupling factor purified from the acetone powder of chromatophores from Rhodospirillum rubrum shows ATPase activity in the presence of Ca(2)+, but not in the presence of Mg(2)+ or Mn(2)+. The present study deals with conditions, under which the Ca(2)+-ATPase activity is reversibly converted into Mg(2)+- and Mn(2)+-ATPase activites with the purified coupling factor. 1. Of the pH indicators tested, 6 kinds coverted the Ca(2)+-ATPase activity into Mg(2)+- and Mn(2)+-ATPase activities in the order, ethyl orange greater than tropaeolin 000 greater than or equal to metanil yellow greater than tropaeolin 00 greater than ethyl red greater than or equal to bromthymol blue. 2. Of the detergents tested, those other than Triton X-100 and Brij 58 caused the conversion described above; dodecylsulfonate was most effective, whereas dodecylpyridinium chloride was moderately effective. 3. 2,4-Dinitrophenol stimulated approximately two-fold the Ca(2)+-ATPase activity, but not the Mg(2)+- or Mn(2)+-ATPase activity at all. However, in the presence of dodecylpyridinium chloride, the pH indicator remarkably stimulated the Mg(2)+- and Mn(2)+-ATPase activities, accompanied with a partial inhibition of the Ca(2)+-ATPase activity. Methyl red and ethyl red showed similar effects. 4. All the nucleoside triphosphates tested can serve as the substrate. ATP was most effective for the Ca(2)+-ATPase activity, whereas dATP was most effective for the Mg(2)+- and Mn(2)+-ATPase activities induced by ethyl orange. 5. In the presence of ethyl orange, the ATPase activity was induced by various divalent cations in the following order of effectiveness, Mg(2)+ greater than Zn(2)+ greater than CO(2)+ greater than Mn(2)+ greater than Ni(2)+. 6. The mechanism of the reversible conversion from the Ca(2)+-ATPase activity to the Mg(2)+- and Mn(2)+-ATPase activities by pH indicators and detergents is discussed.

An ATPase was purified from mouse myeloma MOPC 70E the activity of which depends on the presence of single-stranded DNA and divalent cations such as Mg2+, Mn2+, Ca2+, Ni2+ or Fe2+. The enzyme splits both ribonucleoside and deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates but preferentially ATP and dATP yielding nucleoside diphosphates and inorganic phosphate. The enzyme has an absolute requirement for single-stranded DNA. Alternating double-stranded polydeoxynucleotides are only slight effective, and native double-stranded DNA, single-stranded and double-stranded RNAs as well as DNA - RNA hybrids are ineffective in stimulating the ATPase. The enzyme has further characterized by sedimentation in a sucrose density gradient (s20, w = 5.5 S) and by isoelectric focussing in an ampholine pH gradient (pI = 6.5).

Bacillus subtilis W23 was infected with a clear-plaque variant of SP-10 phage, namely, SP-10c. Exogenous thymidine was not incorporated into phage DNA (even in the presence of deoxyadenosine), nor was there any transfer of thymidine nucleotides from bacterial to viral DNA. The lytic program was unaffected by concentrations of 5-fluorodeoxyuridine sufficient to reduce bacterial DNA synthesis by greater than 95%. Although these data are consistent with the interpretation that thymidine nucleotides are excluded from phage DNA, formic acid digests of SP-10c DNA contained what appeared to be the four conventional bases; however, adenine and thymine were not recovered in equimolar yields. DNA-RNA hybridization and hybridization competition experiments were done. Synthesis of host RNA started to wane moments postinfection and stopped completely by 36 min. SP-10c coded for discrete classes of early and late RNA. The possibility of discrete subclasses of early RNA exists. Replication of the bacterial genome appeared to terminate 12 min postinfection. Degradation of the host DNA to acid-soluble material started at 36 min and, by the end of the latent period, greater than 90% of the host chromosome was hydrolyzed. Four apparent phage-coded enzymes have been identified. A di- and triphosphatase degraded dUTP, dUDP, dTTP, and dTDP (and, to a lesser extent, dCDP and d CTP) to the corresponding monophosphates; the enzyme had no apparent activity on dATP and dGTP. SP10c also coded for a DNA-dependent DNA polymerase, lysozyme, and a nuclease that degrades native bacterial DNA. Judging from the dependence of enzyme synthesis on the time of addition of rifampin (an inhibitor of the initiation of RNA synthesis), messengers for the di- and triphosphatase, as well as the nuclease, are transcribed from promoters that start to function 6 min postinfection. Promoters for polymerase and lysozyme did not become functional until 8 and 16 min postinfection, respectively.

Hydrolysis of ATP by rep protein proceeds in the presence of a single-stranded region of DNA 4 residues long, but the true effector for rep ATPase appears to be a replicating fork rather than a random coil. At or near a fork in duplex DNA, rep ATPase action is different from what it is on DNA lacking secondary structure (single-stranded): (i) Km for ATP is lower, (ii) specificity is for ATP and dATP with no action on other nucleoside triphosphates, (iii) sensitivity to certain ATP analogs is reduced, (iv) presence of a DNA-nicking enzyme (e.g. cistron A protein induced by phiX174) is required, and (v) Escherichia coli DNA binding protein facilitates rather than inhibits. During the separation of strands accompanying replication, 2 molecules of nucleoside triphosphate (ATP or dATP) are hydrolyzed for every nucleotide polymerized. Utilization of ATP by rep protein may provide energy for catalytic strand separation at a fork in advance of replication.

A new DNA-dependent ATPase was isolated and purified from soluble extracts of Escherichia coli. This enzyme, called ATPase II, has a molecular weight of 86,000 and exists in a monomeric state. It degrades ATP (or dATP) to ADP (or dADP) and Pi in the presence of magnesium and requires a double-stranded polynucleotide as cofactor. A correlation between the efficiency as cofactor and the melting point of the polynucleotide has been found; the lower the melting temperature, the higher the stimulation of ATPase II. The enzyme binds to single-stranded DNA and poly[d(A-T)] copolymer, but not to the double-stranded circular DNA (Form I) of simian virus 40.

1. Dynein was extracted with 0.5 M KCl from Tetrahymena axonemes. SDS-gel electrophoresis of the extract indicated that about 50% of the extracted protein had a molecular weight of about 3.5 X 10(5), and that 90% of the proteins with this weight had been extracted. 2. The ATPase [EC 3.6.1.3] reaction of the KCl-extracted dynein fraction was enhanced by 60-80% by addition of the outer doublet fraction. It showed an initial burst of Pi liberation of about 1 mol per mol of proteins with a molecular weight of 3.5 X 10(5). 3. We examined the interaction of the dynein-tubulin system from Tetrahymena cilia with ten ATP analogs [2'-dATP, 3'-dATP, epsilonATP, FTP, 8-NH(CH3)-ATP, 8,3'-S-cyclo-ATP, 8-Br-ATP, 8-OCH3-ATP, 8-SCH3-ATP, and AMPPNP]. Among them, 2'-dATP and 3'-dATP were good substrates for dynein ATPase, as they induced the dissociation of dynein arms from the B-tubule of outer doublets, the sliding movement between outer doublets, and the bending movement of axonemes. The other analogs did not induce the dissociation or the sliding movement. 4. Among the ATP analogs tested, only 2'-dATP and 3'-dATP induced the reorientation of cilia on the Triton model of Tetrahymena; the reorientation rates were smaller than that induced by ATP.

A DNA-dependent ATPase has been purified from calf thymus. The enzyme hydrolyses ATP and dATP in the presence of heat-denatured DNA. It does not hydrolyse the corresponding nucleoside triphosphates of guanine, uridine and cytosine. The Km values for ATP and dATP are both 0.62 mM. The enzyme requires magnesium or manganese ions. Its sedimentation coefficient is about 4.4 S. The catalytic activity is inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide but is not sensitive to novobiocin and nalidixic acid which are potent inhibitors of bacterial DNA gyrase. In some cases, during purification, chromatographically distinct additional DNA-dependent ATPase activities were detected. Limited proteolysis or covalent modification of the enzyme in the tissues, or during the first steps of its extraction, are probably responsible for the appearance of these chromatographically distinct forms.

Highly purified SV40 large T antigen exhibits an ATPase activity which can be stimulated approximately 7-fold by the DNA homopolymer poly(dT). The poly(dT)-stimulated enzyme can hydrolyze various ribonucleotide and deoxyribonucleotide triphosphates, with ATP and dATP serving as the best substrates. Purified large T antigen hydrolyzes ATP to ADP and Pi, with a maximum specific activity of 13.5 mumol of inorganic phosphate released per h per mg of protein. Of the various natural and synthetic polynucleotides tested, poly(dT) was by far the best activator. Long chain poly(dT) molecules are much more effective activators than are short chain length oligo(dT) molecules. The highly purified large T antigen contains no detectable protein kinase activity.

The nucleoside triphosphatase activities of the nuclear envelopes from rat liver, pig liver and simian-virus-40-transformed mouse-embryo 3T3 cells were shown to exhibit similar parperties. All three preparations hydrolyse ATP, 2'-dATP, 3'-dATP, GTP, CTP and UTP in the presence of Mg2+, Ca2+, Mn2+ and Co2+ with a pH optimum of 8.0, are sensitive to inhibition by mercurials, arsenicals, quercetin, proflavin and adenosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate and are partially inactivated by exposure to high ionic strength. The kinetic behaviour is similar for all substrates irrespective of the source of material. The typical Eadie-Hofstee plot, which is concave upwards at pH 8.0 when the ionic strength is 20mM, becomes linear when the pH is increased to 8.5 or the ionic strength to 160mM. The overall evidence, particularly the labelling of only one polypeptide by [gamma-32P]ATP, suggests that under the conditions of preparation and assay used only one class of nucleoside triphosphatase active sites is detectable in nuclear envelopes. The importance of these results for an understanding of the role of the enzyme in vivo is discussed.

In the presence of DNA and a divalent cation, an enzyme activity in cell-free extracts of Escherichia coli readily hydrolyses dATP to dADP. dGTP is degraded to a smaller extent, dCTP and dTTP being hardly affected. The artificial template primers poly(dC) . oligo(dG) and poly(dT) . oligo(dA) are also effective cofactors for this triphosphatase activity. As a consequence, assays measuring the misincorporation, by cell-free extracts, of dATP and dGTP into these defined templates are difficult to interpret, since the triphosphate substrate is being rapidly degraded during the polymerase reaction. A partial characterization of the dATPase activity was performed, demonstrating that the optimal conditions for its activity resemble those commonly used for assaying polymerase activity. Thus in crude extracts both polymerase and dATPase compete for the same substrate. The inclusion of an ATP-generating system in the reaction mixture maintains the levels of deoxynucleoside triphosphates and changes the kinetics of misincorporation of dAMP into poly(dC) . oligo(dG). No reproducible difference in such misincorporation has been found between lysates prepared from tif-1 cells grown at either permissive or restrictive temperature.
