The gastric H+,K(+)-ATPase is an alpha beta heterodimer with close homology to the Na+,K(+)-ATPase. Digestion of intact cytoplasmic-side-out vesicles at a trypsin to protein ratio of 1/4 removed most of the cytoplasmic protein, leaving membrane-spanning pairs in high yield. These were visualized on gels and poly(vinylidene difluoride) (PVDF) membranes by sodium dodecyl sulfate solubilization of the membrane-embedded segments and labeling of the cysteine residues with fluorescein maleimide prior to electrophoresis. The membrane-spanning residues of the alpha subunit were found between positions 104 and 162 (M1/M2), 291 and 358(M3/M4), 776 and 835 (M5/M6), and 853 and 946 (M7/M8). Although this method did not detect membrane retention of the hydrophobic sequences subsequent to position 946, it provided biochemical evidence for at least eight membrane segments in the catalytic subunit. Intact vesicles containing this enzyme transport acid in the presence of KCl, valinomycin, and MgATP. Omeprazole accumulates in these acidified vesicles and converts to a cationic sulfenamide. This forms disulfides with accessible cysteines. The reaction with this extracytoplasmic thiol reagent inhibits ATPase activity. Full inhibition was obtained with a stoichiometry of 2.2 mol of omeprazole bound/mg of protein. Only the alpha subunit was labeled. The cysteines reacting with omeprazole were defined by proteolytic cleavage of 3H- or 14C-omeprazole-labeled enzyme followed by peptide sequencing of fragments separated on tricine gradient gels and transferred to PVDF membranes. Tryptic digestion at a 1/40 trypsin to protein ratio in the presence of ligands that stabilize the E2P form of the enzyme produced two large fragments, one of 68 kDa stretching from Glu47 to probably Arg666 that contained minor labeling and the other of 333 kDa beginning at Ala671 and extending to probably Arg946 that contained greater than 85% of the label. Digestion of labeled vesicles at 1/75 or 1/4 trypsin to protein ratios gave radioactive patterns consistent with labeling at Cys813 and/or Cys822 and at Cys892 and/or Cys927 and/or Cys938. V8 protease digestion of the solubilized alpha subunit produced a fragment extending from Ser838 to possible Asp900 that was omeprazole-labeled, showing that Cys892 was labeled and Cys927 and Cys938 were not. Hence, omeprazole labels the H+,K(+)-ATPase at cysteines within the M5/M6 and M7/M8 regions of the alpha subunit, accounting for its inhibitory action in vivo and in vitro.

We recently identified a 28-kDa protein in the intestinal brush border that resembled tropomyosin in terms of size, homology, and alpha helical content. This protein contained 27 heptad repeats, nearly all of which began with leucine, leading to its name zipper protein. Subsequent analysis, however, indicated that both a 49-kDa and a 28-kDa immunoreactive protein existed in intestinal brush-border extracts. Using 5'-rapid amplification of cDNA ends analysis, we extended the N-terminal sequence of zipper protein to the apparent translation start site. This additional sequence contained a putative transmembrane domain and two potential tryptic cleavage sites C-terminal to the transmembrane domain which would release a 28-kDa cytoplasmic protein if utilized. The additional sequence was highly homologous to members of the B-G protein family, a family with no known function. Immunoelectron microscopy showed that zipper protein was confined to the membrane of the microvillus where it was in close association with brush-border myosin 1 (BBM1). Recombinant zipper protein (28-kDa cytoplasmic portion) blocked the binding of actin to BBM1 and inhibited actin-stimulated BBM1 ATPase activity. In contrast, zipper protein had no effect on endogenous or K/EDTA-stimulated BBM1 ATPase activity. Furthermore, zipper protein displaced tropomyosin from binding to actin, suggesting that these homologous proteins bind to the same sites on the actin molecule. We conclude that zipper protein is a transmembrane protein of the B-G family localized to the intestinal epithelial cell microvillus. The extended cytoplasmic tail either in the intact molecule or after tryptic cleavage may participate in regulating the binding and, thus, activation of BBM1 by actin in a manner similar to tropomyosin.

In humans, defects in peroxisome assembly result in the peroxisome biogenesis disorders (PBDs), a group of genetically heterogeneous, lethal recessive diseases. We have identified the human gene PXAAA1 based upon its similarity to PpPAS5, a gene required for peroxisome assembly in the yeast Pichia pastoris. Expression of PXAAA1 restored peroxisomal protein import in fibroblasts from 16 unrelated members of complementation group 4 (CG4) of the PBD. Consistent with this observation, CG4 patients carry mutations in PXAAA1. The product of this gene, Pxaaa1p, belongs to the AAA family of ATPases and appears to be a predominantly cytoplasmic protein. Substitution of an arginine for the conserved lysine residue in the ATPase domain of Pxaaa1p abolished its biological activity, suggesting that Pxaaa1p is an ATPase. Furthermore, Pxaaa1p is required for stability of the predominantly cytoplasmic PTS1 receptor, Pxr1p. We conclude that Pxaaa1p plays a direct role in peroxisomal protein import and is required for PTS1 receptor activity.

In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, vacuolar proteins such as carboxypeptidase Y transit from the Golgi to the lysosome-like vacuole via an endosome-like intermediate compartment. The vacuolar protein sorting (vps) mutant vps28, a member of the "class E" vps mutants, accumulates vacuolar, endocytic, and late Golgi markers in an aberrant endosome-like class E compartment. Sequence analysis of VPS28 revealed an open reading frame predicted to encode a hydrophilic protein of 242 amino acids. Consistent with this, polyclonal antiserum raised against Vps28p recognized a cytoplasmic protein of 28 kDa. Disruption of VPS28 resulted in moderate defects in both biosynthetic traffic and endocytic traffic destined for the vacuole. The transport of soluble vacuolar hydrolases to the vacuole was impaired in vps28 null mutant cells (approximately 40-50% carboxypeptidase Y missorted). Internalization of the endocytic marker FM 4-64, a vital lipophilic dye, resulted in intense staining of a small intracellular compartment adjacent to an enlarged vacuole in delta vps28 cells. Furthermore, the vacuolar H+-ATPase accumulated in the perivacuolar class E compartment in delta vps28 cells, as did a-factor receptor Ste3p that was internalized from the plasma membrane. Electron microscopic analysis revealed the presence of a novel compartment consisting of stacks of curved membrane cisternae. Immunolocalization studies demonstrated that the vacuolar H+-ATPase is associated with this cupped cisternal structure, indicating that it corresponds to the class E compartment observed by fluorescence microscopy. Our data indicate that kinetic defects in both anterograde and retrograde transport out of the prevacuolar compartment in vps28 mutants result in the accumulation of protein and membrane in an exaggerated multilamellar endosomal compartment. We propose that Vps28p, as well as other class E Vps proteins, may facilitate (possibly as coat proteins) the formation of transport intermediates required for efficient transport out of the prevacuolar endosome.

The chaperone function of the mammalian 70-kDa heat shock proteins Hsc70 and Hsp70 is modulated by physical interactions with four previously identified chaperone cofactors: Hsp40, BAG-1, the Hsc70-interacting protein Hip, and the Hsc70-Hsp90-organizing protein Hop. Hip and Hop interact with Hsc70 via a tetratricopeptide repeat domain. In a search for additional tetratricopeptide repeat-containing proteins, we have identified a novel 35-kDa cytoplasmic protein, carboxyl terminus of Hsc70-interacting protein (CHIP). CHIP is highly expressed in adult striated muscle in vivo and is expressed broadly in vitro in tissue culture. Hsc70 and Hsp70 were identified as potential interaction partners for this protein in a yeast two-hybrid screen. In vitro binding assays demonstrated direct interactions between CHIP and both Hsc70 and Hsp70, and complexes containing CHIP and Hsc70 were identified in immunoprecipitates of human skeletal muscle cells in vivo. Using glutathione S-transferase fusions, we found that CHIP interacted with the carboxy-terminal residues 540 to 650 of Hsc70, whereas Hsc70 interacted with the amino-terminal residues 1 to 197 (containing the tetratricopeptide domain and an adjacent charged domain) of CHIP. Recombinant CHIP inhibited Hsp40-stimulated ATPase activity of Hsc70 and Hsp70, suggesting that CHIP blocks the forward reaction of the Hsc70-Hsp70 substrate-binding cycle. Consistent with this observation, both luciferase refolding and substrate binding in the presence of Hsp40 and Hsp70 were inhibited by CHIP. Taken together, these results indicate that CHIP decreases net ATPase activity and reduces chaperone efficiency, and they implicate CHIP in the negative regulation of the forward reaction of the Hsc70-Hsp70 substrate-binding cycle.

The in situ photoactivation of an HCO3- uptake system in the green alga Monoraphidium braunii requires the irradiation of the cell suspensions with short wavelength radiation (blue, UVA and/or UVC). Plasma membrane ATPase inhibitors block the uptake of this monovalent anion at pH 9. M. braunii cells grown in high CO2 lack an HCO3- uptake system in their plasma membrane, but those grown in low CO2 can take up this anion at high rates. Cells grown in high CO2, transferred to CO2-limiting conditions in the light, start taking up HCO3- in 30 min, although they take 90 min to reach maximum rates of HCO3- transport. Therefore, this induction process seems to be triggered by low external CO2 concentration. In fact, increasing or decreasing the external HCO3- concentration does not induce the uptake system and only a decrease in CO2 concentration in the medium triggers the induction process. The appearance of the HCO3- transport activity is sensitive to cycloheximide, indicating that cytoplasmic protein biosynthesis is necessary for the induction of the uptake system. Photosynthetically active radiation, but not particularly blue light, is essential for induction of the uptake system to occur and the inhibition of photosynthesis by DCMU blocks it. From these results it can be inferred that when M. braunii cells detect a drop in CO2 concentration, they induce a blue light-dependent HCO3- uptake system.

Located at the 30 kb genomic region between complement factor B and component C4 are four ubiquitously expressed genes RD, SKI2W, DOM3Z and RP1. Besides RP1, the protein products of the other three genes each has highly conserved homologues or related proteins in lower eukaryotes, contains leucine zipper motifs for protein interaction, and plays important roles related to RNA metabolism. RD is a subunit of the negative transcription elongation factor, critical for the regulation of gene expression. It has an RNA recognition motif and 24 copies of Arg-Asp (RD) repeats. Ski2w is a nucleolar and cytoplasmic protein that has a putative RNA helicase domain. Fusion proteins of human Ski2w expressed in insect cells and bacteria have ATPase activity. The cytoplasmic protein of human Ski2w is associated with the polysomes and probably the 40S subunit of ribosomes. Ski2w is probably involved in the regulation of translation and RNA turnover. Dom3z is a nuclear protein whose yeast homologue forms a complex with an exoribonuclease. RP1 (or STK19) is a Ser/Thr nuclear protein kinase. No homologues of RP1 in lower eukaryotes have been discovered. Six polymorphic residues are present in human Ski2w and two in Dom3z. The potential roles of Ski2w and Dom3z on the clearance of degraded nuclear and cytoplasmic RNA raised their possibilities as susceptibility genes of systemic lupus erythematosus that is a disease with flawed processes in the removal of apoptotic materials.

The ATPase FliI of the Salmonella type III flagellar protein export apparatus is a 456 amino acid residue cytoplasmic protein consisting of two regions, an N-terminal flagellum-specific region and a C-terminal ATPase region. It forms a complex with a regulatory protein FliH in the cytoplasm. Multi-angle light-scattering studies indicate that FliH forms a homodimer, (FliH)2, and that FliH and FliI together form a heterotrimer, (FliH)2FliI. Mobility upon gel-filtration chromatography gives much higher apparent molecular masses for both species, whereas the mobility of FliI is normal. Sedimentation velocity measurements indicate that both (FliH)2 and the FliH/FliI complex are quite elongated. We have analyzed FliH, FliI and the FliH/FliI complex for proteolytic sensitivity. FliI was degraded by clostripain into two stable fragments, one of 48 kDa (FliI(CL48), missing the first seven amino acid residues) and the other of 46 kDa (FliI(CL46), missing the first 26 residues). Small amounts of two closely spaced 38 kDa fragments (FliI(CL38), missing the first 93 and 97 residues, respectively) were also detected. The FliH homodimer was insensitive to clostripain proteolysis and provided protection to FliI within the FliH/FliI complex. Neither FliI(CL48) nor FliI(CL46) could form a complex with FliH, demonstrating that the N terminus of FliI is essential for the interaction. ATP, AMP-PNP, and ADP bound forms of FliI within the FliH/FliI complex regained sensitivity to clostripain cleavage. Also, the sensitivity of the two FliI(CL38) cleavage sites was much greater in the ATP and AMP-PNP bound forms than in either the ADP bound form or nucleotide-free FliI. The ATPase domain itself was insensitive to clostripain cleavage. We suggest that the N-terminal flagellum-specific region of FliI is flexible and changes its conformation during the ATP hydrolysis cycle.

Phospholamban (PLN) reversibly inhibits the Ca(2+)-ATPase of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum (SERCA2a) through a direct protein-protein interaction, playing a pivotal role in the regulation of intracellular Ca(2+) in heart muscle cells. The interaction between PLN and SERCA2a occurs at multiple sites within the cytoplasmic and membrane domains. Here, we have reconstituted the cytoplasmic protein-protein interaction using bacterially expressed fusion proteins of the cytoplasmic domain of PLN and the long cytoplasmic loop of SERCA2a. We have developed two methods to evaluate the binding of the fusion proteins, one with glutathione-Sepharose beads and the other with a 96-well plate. Essentially the same results were obtained by the two methods. The affinity of the binding (K(D)) was 0.70 microM. The association was inhibited by cAMP-dependent phosphorylation of the PLN fusion protein and by usage of anti-PLN monoclonal antibody. It was also diminished by substitution at the phosphorylation site of PLN of Ser(16) to Asp. These results suggest that PLN can bind SERCA2a in the absence of the membrane domains and that the modifications of the cytoplasmic domain of PLN that activate SERCA2a parallel the disruption of the association between the two fusion proteins. It has been shown that the removal of PLN inhibition of SERCA2a rescues cardiac function and morphology in the mouse dilated cardiomyopathy model. Our assay system can be applied to the screening of novel inotropic agents that remove the inhibition of SERCA2a by PLN, improving the relaxation as well as the contractility of the failing heart.

Multivesicular bodies are late endosomal compartments containing lumenal vesicles that are formed by inward budding of the limiting endosomal membrane. In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, integral membrane proteins are sorted into the lumenal vesicles of multivesicular bodies, and this process requires the class E subset of VPS genes. We show that one of the class E VPS genes, BRO1/VPS31, encodes a cytoplasmic protein that associates with endosomal compartments. The dissociation of Bro1 from endosomes requires another class E Vps protein, Vps4, which is an ATPase that also regulates the endosomal dissociation of ESCRT-III, a complex of four class E Vps proteins (Vps2, Vps20, Vps24 and Snf7/Vps32) that oligomerize at the endosomal membrane. We also show that the endosomal association of Bro1 is specifically dependent on one of the ESCRT-III components, Snf7. Our data suggest that the function of Bro1 in the MVB pathway takes place on endosomal membranes and occurs in concert with or downstream of the function of the ESCRT-III complex.
