The purpose of this work was to test the previously suggested hypothesis that the inhibitory effect of ouabain on lactate production in human red cells is due to an interaction between phosphoglycerate kinase and (Na+ + k+)-activated adenosine triphosphatase (Na+,K+ATPase). An antibody to red cell phosphoglycerate kingase caused complete inhibition of the purified enzyme, whereas a portion of the phophoglycerate kinase activity of the red cell membranes was resistant to the antibody. When increasing amounts of the purified enzyme were added to the membranes, the antibody-resistant portion of the activity increased. The effects of the antibody and ouabain on lactate production from fructose-6,6-diphosphate in red cell hemolysates were studied. Ouabain, at a maximally effective concentration, produced about 30% inhibition of lactate formation. This value was doubled in the presence of the antibody. Red cell membranes, and rat brain Na+,K+-ATPase, did not catalyze the hydrolysis of 1,3-diphosphoglycerate. Ouabain did not affect the reactions of the Rapport-Luebering pathway of the red cells. These findings provide further support for the view that in red cells a membrane pool of phosphoglycerate kinase is oriented in the vicinity of Na+,K+-ATPase in a way that the product of each enzyme may be used as the immediate substrate of the other and that ouabain inhibits glycolysis by removing the regulatory effect of Na+,K+-ATPase on that portion of glycolysis which is channeled through this pool of phosphoglycerate kinase.

The concept that ouabain-sensitive membrane (Na+ + K+)-ATPase-generated adenosine diphosphate (ADP) preferentially serves as the substrate for the phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) step of erythrocyte glycolysis has been reexamined. Membrane ATPase readily provides ADP for and utilizes ATP generated in the pyruvate kinase (PK) step and is ouabain sensitive. Earlier reports in the literature, which have suggested that in hemolysates the ATPase reaction facilitating the PK reaction is ouabain-insensitive, are reinterpreted: in crude hemolysates ADP generated in the "backward" PGK reaction can account for these data. We conclude that there is no convincing evidence of selective linkage of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase with the PGK reaction.

This paper describes work which begins to define the molecular organization in the region of the membrane that comprises the functional domain of the Na:K pump. The membrane-bound phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) and Na, K-ATPase appear to be directly linked via a compartmentalized form of ATP. Evidence for the membrane pool of ATP is based on the labeling characteristics of the phosphoproteins by [gamma-(32)P]ATP of ghosts incubated under various conditions. Preincubation of ghosts in the presence of ATP at 37 degrees C, but not at 0 degrees C, completely obscures the formation of the Na-phosphoprotein in ghosts washed and subsequently incubated in the presence of [gamma-(32)P]ATP. In contrast to the Na component, the Mg component of phosphorylation is only slightly altered by preincubation with ATP. ATPase activity measured as (32)P(i) liberated during the subsequent incubation at 0 degrees C, reflects completely the differential effects of preincubation with ATP on (32)P incorporation into phosphoprotein. ATP placed within the pool by preincubation can be removed by operating the Na, K-ATPase or the PGK reaction in the reverse direction by use of exogenous substrates. Alternatively, the membrane pool of ATP can be formed also from exogenous substrates by running the PGK reaction in the forward direction. These results, while providing direct support for a membrane compartment of ATP, also indicate the location of this compartment in relation to the PGK and the Na, K-ATPase. In addition, these results also imply that the Mg and Na components are different enzymatic entities since substrate ATP can be derived from separate sources.

Human erythrocytes from healthy male donors were fractionated with respect to in vivo age by simple centrifugation in order to characterize changes in the functional integrity of the membrane during the life-span of the cell. The three enzymes, Na/K-ATPase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and NADH-ferricyanide reductase, were found not to change with age, but significant age-dependent decreases were observed in the cases of acetylcholinesterase, phosphoglycerate kinase, purine nucleoside phosphorylase, adenylate kinase, Mg-ATPase and alkaline phosphatase. The possibility that these changes were attributable to mechanisms other than age-related inactivation, such as reticulocyte contamination, differential resealing and crypticity, was investigated. Only the decrease in acetylcholinesterase could be explained wholly in terms of reticulocyte contamination. A decrease in membrane integrity on ageing was observed, which accounted for approximately half the change in alkaline phosphatase and may have contributed to the other enzyme activity changes. This membrane integrity effect masked a real decrease in the highly cryptic NADH-ferricyanide reductase, this decrease being apparent only after total disaggregation of the membrane with nonionic surfactant.

Space-filling models of yeast hexokinase, adenylate kinase, and phosphoglycerate kinase drawn by computer clearly portray the bilobal character of these phosphoryl transfer enzymes, and the deep cleft which is formed between the lobes. A dramatic conformational change occurs in hexokinase as glucose binds to the bottom of the cleft, which causes the two lobes of hexokinase to come together. A substrate-induced closing of the active site cleft is postulated to occur in other kinases as well. This change may provide a mechanism by which some of these enzymes reduce their inherent adenosine triphosphatase activity and could be a general requirement of the kinase reaction.

When 10(-6) M oubain is added to human red cell that have been incubated without glucose for two hours, there is a significant shift in the 31P nuclear magnetic resonances of both phosphate groups of cellular 2,3-diphosphoglycerate, which is not found in control cells incubated with glucose. This means that an effect induced by ouabain on the outside of the red cell membrane is transmitted through the membrane to alter the environment of an intracellular metabolite. Experiments with glycolytic cycle inhibitors have indicated that the intracellular ligand responsible for the resonance shifts is monophosphoglycerate mutase which requires 2,3-diphosphoglycerate as a cofactor for the reaction it catalyzes. To account for this finding a hypothesis is presented that the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase in human red cells is linked to monophosphoglycerate mutase through the agency of phosphoglycerate kinase. Evidence is presented for the existence of phosphoglycerate kinase/monophosphoglycerate mutase in solution. It is shown that this complex can interact with the cytoplasmic face of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase at the outside surface of inside out red cell vesicles, and that this interaction is inhibited when 10(-6) M ouabain is contained within the vesicle. Neither monophosphoglycerate mutase nor phosphoglycerate kinase is significantly bound to the inside surface of the intact human red cell, but glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase is; it is shown that this enzyme also interacts with the cytoplasmic face of the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase and that the interaction is inhibited by 10(-6) M ouabain.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the interaction of phosphoglycerate kinase with the human erythrocyte ghost membrane. Ghosts prepared in 0.1 mM EDTA and 17 mM Tris buffer (pH 7.5) have about 230 molecules of phosphoglycerate kinase/ghost. No additional binding is observed after incubating soluble enzyme with these leaky ghosts. This binding is tight but reversible with Kd = 7.1 X 10(-10) M. The enzyme can be eluted significantly from the membrane by incubation with 0.15 M NaCl and it rebinds to the membrane when the depleted ghosts are incubated with rabbit muscle phosphoglycerate kinase. Ligand binding studies show that NADH and NAD have opposite effects on the binding of the enzyme to the membrane; NAD (1.0 MM) favors binding while NADH (0.25 MM) does not. Similarly, ADP (0.2 mM) favors binding while ATP does not. ATP elutes the membrane-bound enzyme with Kd = 0.058 mM. MgSO4 also stimulates dissociation of the membrane-bound phosphoglycerate kinase (Kd = 0.36 mM), an effect which appears to be due to the magnesium ion. ADP (0.2 mM) can counteract the negative effect of MgSO4 (1.0 mM) on binding of phosphoglycerate kinase to the membrane. We have been unable so far to find tight coupling of the (Na+-K+)-ATPase with the membrane-bound phosphoglycerate kinase.

A cell-free system prepared from rat liver containing cytosol and mitochondria as well as a number of cofactors and gluconeogenic intermediates at near-physiological concentrations was shown to form hexose 6-phosphates linearly from lactate + pyruvate + glutamate at a rate of 0.82 +/- 0.05 mumol/min per g of liver (mean +/- S.E.M., n = 8, 37 degrees C). The indicated rates were measured between 20 min and 60 min incubation time, when the system was near steady state. Experiments with either [1-14C]lactate or [U-14C]glutamate revealed that the incorporation of radioactive label into hexose 6-phosphates was proportional to the utilization of lactate + pyruvate and of glutamate during incubation and that both served as gluconeogenic substrates at a ratio of about 2:1. When the [ATP]/[ADP] ratio was lowered from 60 to 19 by addition of ATPase, the rate of hexose 6-phosphate formation fell to one-third. This decrease in gluconeogenic flux was mainly due to a decreased flow through the phosphoglycerate kinase step. Hexose 6-phosphate formation could also be decreased by increasing the ratio [NADH]/[NAD+], either by addition of ethanol or by increasing the initial concentration of lactate + pyruvate at a fixed ratio of 10:1. The observed inhibition was linked to a limitation in the availability of oxaloacetate for the phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase reaction and to an increased formation of sn-glycerol 3-phosphate. Finally, the rates of hexose 6-phosphate formation in incubations with cytosols from fed rats were only 50% of those observed with cytosols from animals starved for 48 h. One of the limiting steps was found to be the flow through the phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase step.

In the process of defining the recruitment of fuel and pathway selection in rainbow trout fast-twitch white skeletal muscle, it was clear that the near-maximal myosin adenosinetriphosphatase activity during a 10-s sprint was supported solely by phosphocreatine hydrolysis. A conservative estimate of the ATP turnover was 188 mumol X g wet wt-1 X min-1. It was not until the rate and force of contraction decreased that the relative contribution of anaerobic glycogenolysis became increasingly important. Over a 10-min period of burst swimming at approximately 120% of maximum aerobic steady-state swimming velocity of trout determined in a Brett-type swim tunnel, fatigue was associated with the near-depletion of glycogen in white muscle. The ATP turnover supported by anaerobic glycogenolysis was 78 mumol X g wet wt-1 X min-1. The glycolytic pathway appeared functional at this time with control sites being identified at hexokinase and phosphofructokinase (PFK-1). PFK-1 did not appear to be inhibited by low muscle pH (pH 6.66). In another exercise protocol lasting 30 min, complete exhaustion was related to glycogen depletion. The sum of all glycolytic intermediates from glucose 6-phosphate to pyruvate at exhaustion decreased by a dramatic 80% compared with the 25% decrease for the 10-min fatigue swimming protocol. This large depletion of glycolytic intermediates was accompanied by an 80% fall in ATP, a 70-80% reduction in the ATP/ADP and phosphorylation potential, and a 2.5-fold increase in the NAD/NADH. Associated with these changes was a marked displacement of the phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK), and the combined glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase-PGK reactions from thermodynamic equilibrium. As a general conclusion, fatigue and exhaustion should be viewed as a multicomponent biochemical process in response to low glycogen and not leveled at one particular step of the glycolytic pathway.

The storage lesion which limits the shelf life of human blood in blood banking is associated with a metabolic loss of 2,3-diphosphoglycerate and ATP. This metabolic loss is driven by intracellular ATPase which are usually considered to include the ion pumps and the reactions which maintain the discoid shape of the human erythrocyte. Under the acidic conditions of blood storage, the energy-yielding reactions of the glycolytic pathway are restricted at the hexokinase and phosphofructokinase steps. We show here that under such circumstances the enzyme of the diphosphoglycerate shunt, diphosphoglycerate mutase/phosphatase and the glycolytic enzyme phosphoglycerate kinase can form a futile cycle with ATPase activity. This ATPase activity responds to 2-phosphoglycolate which is known to activate both diphosphoglycerate mutase and diphosphoglycerate phosphatase reactions. When the enzymes of the futile cycle are combined with the enzymes of the lower glycolytic pathway in a reconstitution experiment designed to represent conditions within the stored erythrocyte, the futile cycle does provide an ATPase activity which results in the metabolic loss of 2,3-diphosphoglycerate. An isotope incorporation experiment demonstrates that the futile cycle is active in glucose-depleted erythrocytes.
