1. Plasma membrane preparations have been isolated from spheroplasts of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, strain R XII, via lysis and subsequent differential centrifugation. These preparations are almost devoid of mitochondrial contamination. 2. The plasma membrane ATPase is fairly stable when refrigerated, but loses activity at 8 degrees C and above. Below pH 5.6 the ATPase is irreversibly inactivated. The enzyme also splits GTP and ITP, although to a lesser extent. 3. Mg2+-ions are essential as part of the reactive substrate, MgATP, and furthermore they activate the ATPase. Optimal conditions depend on substrate concentration. When the concentration of free Mg2+ ions exceeds about 0.1 mM, competitive inhibition occurs. 4. In the range of pH 5.6-9.2 two functional groups dissociate. One, with pKb = 8.1 +/- 0.1 participated in substrate binding and another one with pKb' = 8.1 +/- 0.1 is involved in substrate splitting. 5. The experiments with group-specific inhibitors suggest that an alpha-amino group and a sulfhydryl residue are involved in substrate binding and conversion. Furthermore, imidazole, tryptophan and carboxyl residues may be important for the catalytic process.

H+-Translocating ATPase, which catalyzes ATP synthesis in biomembranes, is composed of a head piece (F1) and a membrane moiety (F0). Using highly-purified F0 from a thermophilic bacterium PS3 (TF0), the following results were obtained. 1. Inhibition by N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD) of H+ conduction through TF0 followed pseudo-first-order kinetics. The second-order rate constant for inhibitor-enzyme interaction was 5 times 10(3) M(-1)-min(-1). 2. H+ conductivity blocked by DCCD was proportional to the amount of DCCD incorporated in the band 8 protein of TF0. When only one-third of the band 8 protein was labeled with DCCD, TF0 hardly transported any H+. 3. By extracting TF0 with chloroform-methanol, the band 8 protein was obtained as a proteolipid. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis with dodecyl sulfate and urea showed that the molecular weight was about 6,000. 4. The amino acid composition of band 8 protein indicated that this protein contained an extremely high percentage of hydrophobic amino acids (0.29 in polarity) and was devoid of histidine, tryptophan, cysteine, and lysine. Its minimum molecular weight was 6,500. 5. The role of band 8 protein (DCCD-binding protein) in H+ conduction through TF0 is discussed on the basis of these results.

TN-C was purified from bovine cardiac muscle. In the absence of Ca-2+, cardiac TN-C has an intrinsic sedimentation coefficient of 1.93 S and a molecular weight of 18 000 daltons. Cardiac TN-C reverses the inhibitory effect of skeletal TN-I on the Mg-2+-activated ATPase of a skeletal synthetic actomyosin preparation in the presence of skeletal tropomyoson. Circular dichroism (CD) studies indicate that cardiac TN-C undergoes a major conformational change upon binding Ca-2+. A similar response is elicited by Sr-2+, whereas Mg-2+ has a much less pronounced effect. The presence of Mg-2+ does not alter the net effects of either Ca-2+ or Sr-2+. Cardiac TN-C is rich in acidic amino acid residues. UV absorption, near UV CD, and fluorimetric studies show that the protein lacks tryptophan and has a relatively high phenylalanine to tyrosine ratio. The results of this study invite direct comparisons with results reported for the skeletal muscle analogue of cardiac TN-C.

On the strength of the study of tryptophan fluorescence of Na+, K+-ATPase preparation a conclusion about conformational changes of the enzume molecule at the level of its tertiary structure is made. The largest changes of intensity and position of fluorescence spectrum consequently the macromolecule structure are discovered at the formation of Mg-ATP-enzyme complex.

G-actin has been nitrated with tetranitromethane in conditions that lead to the modification of one tyrosine residue. The reactive residue was found by earlier workers to be Tyr-69. The nitrated actin is conformationally similar to native G-actin, as judged by sedimentation velocity and circular dichroism analysis. A small proportion only is in the form of covalently linked dimers and trimers. The nitrated G-actin will polymerise to form filaments, indistinguishable in the electron microscope from those of native F-actin, but the polymerisation process is slower. Reduction of the nitrophenol group to the corresponding aminophenol leaves the properties of the protein in respect of polymerisation unchanged. When a dansyl group is introduced at the same point, however, the ability of the actin to polymerise is lost. The nitrated actin and its reduced counterpart will also bind heavy meromyosin, and the characteristic arrowhead formation of the bound molecules along the filaments can be seen in the electron microscope. Neither of the modified F-actins, however, significantly activates or inhibits the myosin ATPase activity. The fluorescence of nitrated actin is strongly quenched through the presence of the nitrophenol chromophore. In soluble complexes with heavy meromyosin the fluorescence is indistinguishable from the sum of the separate contributions of the two protein components. There is thus no measurable excitation transfer between any tryptophan residues on the myosin heads, such as that inferred to be present in the ATPase site, and the nitrotyrosine in position 69 of the actin sequence. Implications of this observation are considered in relation to the different interaction sites in myosin and in actin. The activation of heavy meromyosin ATPase by copolymers containing actin and nitroactin in different proportions has been measured, and is not proportional to the fraction of native actin. The results are consistent with the view that the function of actomyosin depends on the interaction of the myosin heads with more than one actin subunit.

A heat-stable protein has been detected in Saccharomyces cerevisiae which inhibits mitochondrial ATPase activity. The protein inhibitor has been isolated from extracts prepared by brief heat treatment of unbroken cell suspensions. The isolated inhibitor is a small basic protein (molecular weight close to 7000, isoelectric proint 9.05) devoid of tryptophan, tyrosine, and cysteine as well as proline. The NHP2-terminal amino acid is serine. The ultraviolet absorption spectrum shows the vibrational fine structure of the phenyl-alanine band. Like the ATPase inhibitor from bovine heart mitochondria the yeast inhibitor is rapidly destroyed by trypsin. It is also inactivated by the yeast proteinases A and B. Radioimmunological analysis indicates that the inhibitor is synthesized on cytoplasmic ribosomes. Its accumulation seems to be connected to the formation of the mitochondrial ATPase complex, since its specific activity is greatly reduced both in extracts obtained from the F1-ATPase-deficient nuclear mutant pet 936 and from the cytoplasmic petite mutant D 273-10B-1.

A preliminary investigation of the primary structure of the Ca(2+-transporting ATPase (adenosine triphosphatase) protein of rabbit skeletal-muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum is reported. The preparation of derivatives of delipidated protein in a form suitable for sequence analysis is described. Tryptic peptides containing S-carboxymethylcysteine residues were isolated from the reduced carboxymethylated protein, and their sequences were partially determined. The results are consistent with mol.wt. about 105000 for the polypeptide, and the absence of extended repeated lengths of sequence. The distribution of tryptophan and cysteine residues between large, aggregated peptides and soluble tryptic peptides shows that these residues are concentrated in different regions of the primary structure. This observation agrees with other evidence that these residues are, on the whole, widely separated in the native protein. The details of the procedures used to isolate the peptides, and the evidence for the determination of their sequences, are given Supplementary Publication SUP 50085 (30 pages), which has been deposited at the British Library Lending Division, Boston Spa, Wetherby, West Yorkshire LS23 7BQ, U.K., from whom copies can be obtained on the terms indicated in Biochem.J. (1978) 169, 5.

Incubation of mitochondria from Neurospora crassa and Saccharomyces cerevisiae with the radioactive ATPase inhibitor [14C]dicyclohexylcarbodiimide results in the irreversible and rather specific labelling of a low-molecular-weight polypeptide. This dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-binding protein is identical with the smallest subunit (Mr 8000) of the mitochondrial ATPase complex, and it occurs as oligomer, probably as hexamer, in the enzyme protein. The dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-binding protein is extracted from whole mitochondria with neutral chloroform/methanol both in the free and in the inhibitor-modified form. In Neurospora and yeast, this extraction is highly selective and the protein is obtained in homogeneous form when the mitochondria have been prewashed with certain organic solvents. The bound dicyclohexylcarbodiimide label is enriched in the purified protein up to 50-fold compared to whole mitochondria. Based on the amino acid analysis, the dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-binding protein from Neurospora and yeast consists of at least 81 and 76 residues, respectively. The content of hydrophobic residues is extremely high. Histidine and tryptophan are absent. The N-terminal amino acid is tyrosine in Neurospora and formylmethionine in yeast.

Ultrafiltered fur seal muscle hydrolysate was divided into eleven fractions by gel filtration on Sephadex G-15. One of the fractions (Fraction G9) accelerated the ATPase activity of carp myosin B to a rate about two-fold faster than that of the control. Fraction G9 showed a single ninhydrin spot in its silica gel thin layer chromatograph, and gave a positive test for tryptophan by the p-dimethylaminobenzaldehyde method, while tests for tyrosine, and for arginine were negative. The ion exchange amino acid analysis of its acid hydrolysate showed a predominant content of lysine, nearly equivalent to the amount of tryptophan determined from its UV absorbancy and the p-dimethylaminobenzaldehyde method. The N-terminal amino acid analysis gave di-DNP-Lys as the sole DNP-amino acid. The structure of the ATPase accelerating peptide fraction, Fraction G9, was deduced to be Lys-Trp.

1. The protein fluorescence intensity of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase is enhanced following binding of K+ at low concentrations. The properties of the response suggest that one or a few tryptophan residues are affected by a conformational transition between the K-bound form E2 . (K) and a Na-bound form E1 . Na. 2. The rate of the conformational transition E2 . (K) leads to E . Na has been measured with a stopped-flow fluorimeter by exploiting the difference in fluorescence of the two states. In the absence of ATP the rate is very slow, but it is greatly accelerated by binding of ATP to a low affinity site. 3. Transient changes in tryptophan fluorescence accompany hydrolysis of ATP at low concentrations, in media containing Mg2+, Na+ and K+. The fluorescence response reflects interconversion between the initial enzyme conformation, E1 . Na and the steady-state turnover intermediate E2 . (K). 4. The phosphorylated intermediate, E2P can be detected by a fluorescence increase accompanying hydrolysis of ATP in media containing Mg2+ and Na+ but no K+. 5. The conformational states and reaction mechanism of the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase are discussed in the light of this work. The results permit a comparison of the behaviour of the enzyme at both low and high nucleotide concentrations.
