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.

The purification of p protein to homogeneity from Escherichia coli has shown that its RNA-dependent ATPase activity is physically inseparable from its termination activity. The biochemical properties of pATPase have been studied using poly(C) as the activating RNA. This reaction is stimulated by Mg2+ ions and Mn2+ ions and is prevented by excess EDTA; it is not stimulated by Ca2+ ions. The reaction is not affected by a Zn2+ ion chelator and is inhibited by 1 mM Zn2+. With Mg2+ present, the activity is essentially constant from pH 7 to pH 9.7. pATPase is sensitive to p-hydroxymercuribenzoate and to N-ethylmaleimide. All four ribonucleoside triphosphates are hydrolyzed by p action. ATP has the lowest Km (0.009 mM), while CTP has the highest Vmax. In a mixture containing all four nucleoside triphosphates at a concentration of 0.4 mM, p shows no strong preference for any one of the substrates. The response of p ATPase to a variety of inhibitors of other ATPases and GTPases and of transcription has been studied. Of the compounds tested, aurintricarboxylic acid, an inhibitor of protein-nucleic acid interactions, was found to be a potent inhibitor of p ATPase, while rifampicin and heparin had no effect. pATPase showed partial sensitivity to thiostrepton, fusidic acid, Dio 9, and sodium azide.

Oviductal secretions include an ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3) that is transferred from the outer surface of the secretory cells to the surface of the ovulated oocyte. The enzyme has been purified and is a highly labile, very high molecular weight lipoprotein complex (greater than 4-10(6)). It consists of 47% protein and 53% lipid. Lipid composition is limited to phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine and sphingomyelin. The basic protein subunit has a molecular weight of 170 000. The enzyme exhibits many of the characteristics of ectoenzyme ATPase. The enzyme is Mg2+ or Ca2+ dependent; the Mg2+-ATPase has pH optima at 6.0 and 7.8 and the Ca2+-ATPase at 9.0. Substrate specificity is limited to ATP with lesser activity towards GTP, CTP, UPT and ADP. Km for ATP is 0.88 mM and the enzyme is inhibited at substrate concentrations greater than 3 mM ATP.

A partially purified soluble ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) from pea cotyledon mitochondria was characterized. Inhibition patterns with azide, NaF, and cold, and a stimulation by 2,4-dinitrophenol were typical of F1-ATPases from mammalian mitochondria. The enzyme hydrolysed GTP, ITP, and ATP, but not CTP, UTP, ADP, or IDP. ATPase and ITPase activities were strongly inhibited by ADP and to a lesser extent by IDP. Distinctive properties of the pea mitochondrial enzyme were activation by high concentrations of CaCl2 and stimulation by NaCl.

The parameters of the hydrolysis of ATP and several analogs by soluble mitochondrial ATPase were determined. Vmax of the reaction decreases within the range: 2'-desoxy-ATP greater than ATP greater than etheno-ATP greater than GTP greater than 3'-O-methylATP greater than UTP. ATP, 2'-desoxypATP, 3'O-methyl-ATP, GTP, and etheno-ATP are hydrolysed by soluble mitochondrial ATPase with close Km(app) values. CTP is not hydrolysed by the enzyme and does not inhibit the ATPase reaction at a concentration of 10(-2) M. Nucleoside triphosphate derivatives with an "open" ribose cycle 9-[1',5'-dihydroxy-4-(S)-hydroxymethyl-3'-oxapent-2' (R)-yl]adenyl-5'-triphosphate, and 1-[1',5'-dihydroxy-4'-(S)-hydroxymethyl-3'-oxapent-2'(R)-yl[cytosine-5'-triphosphate are effective inhibitors of ATPase (Ki approximately 5.10(-5)M). Mitochondrial ATPase binds the ATP analogs that have hydrocarbon radicals-(CH2)2-, -(CH2)3-, and (CH2)4- instead of the ribose residues: 9-(2'hydroxyethyl)adenyl-2'-triphosphate, 9-(3'-hydroxypropyl)-adenine-3'-triphosphate, and 9-(4'-hydroxybutyl)adenine-4'-triphosphyl)adenine-4'-triphosphate were not hydrolysed by the enzyme, although they inbibit the ATPase reaction (Ki 2.10(-4)M). 9-(2'-hydroxyethyl)adenine-2'-triphosphate is hydrolysed by ATPase eight times more slowly than ATP. It is suggested that the hydrolysis of the substrates of mitochondrial ATPase is- preceded by the binding of the substrates in a tense conformation in the active site of the enzyme.

Ca deposition by isolated matrix vesicles from fetal calf growth plate cartilage and by a deoxycholate extract from matrix vesicles that included their phosphatase was studied under defined in vitro conditions. Electron microscopy showed that after removal of deoxycholate and lyophilization of the vesicle extract, new vesicles were reconstituted, often with multiple membrane layers. Both intact calf vesicles and reconstituted vesicles initiated Ca deposition maximally when supplied with ATP, GTP, CTP, or UTP. Only nucleoside triphosphates supported Ca deposition well; mono- and diphosphoesters, although hydrolyzed, were ineffective as substrates. Nucleoside triphosphates supported Ca deposition even if the final [Ca] X [P] reached in the reaction mixture was below a metastable level (3.5 mM2), suggesting that matrix vesicles or reconstituted vesicles promote calcification by localizing Ca or PO4 or both. ATP or GTP supported Ca deposition readily at concentrations ranging from 0.25 to 1.0 mM but, at 2.5 and 5.0 mM, Ca deposition was inhibited. The ATPase of intact matrix vesicles and reconstituted vesicles was stimulated by addition of Ca2+ and Mg2+. Ca deposition did not require additional Mg2+. These results lend support to the hypothesis that matrix vesicles and their phosphatases play an important role in mineralization.

The dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-sensitive ATPase from spinach chloroplast has been isolated. On sodium dodecyl sulfate gels, seven different polypeptides were seen. Five of these polypeptides coincided with the CF1 subunits, a 7,500-dalton peptide was identified as the proteolipid which interacts with [14C]dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, and there was a 15,500-dalton hydrophobic polypeptide with unknown function. In two-dimentional gels, two additional peptides were resolved, one 17,500 daltons (co-migrating in sodium dodecyl sulfate gels with subunit delta) and one 13,500 daltons (co-migrating with subunit epsilon). Reconstitution was obtained by freezing and thawing the complex with a crude mixture of phospholipids. After reconstitution the complex catalyzed 32P1-ATP exchange (rates of 200 to 400 nmoles x mg-1 x min-1) and ATP formation during acid-to-base transition. These reactions were inhibited by dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and uncouplers. Uncouplers at low concentrations stimulated and at high concentrations inhibited the Mg2+-ATPase activity. ATP hydrolysis and 32P1-ATP exchange were catalyzed by the complex in the presence of either Mg2+ or Mn2+ but not with Ca2+ or Co2+. ATP and GTP were substrates for the exchange reaction but not ADP or CTP.

1. Isolation of ATPase from rat liver submitochondrial particles by chloroform treatment requires the presence of ATP or ADP during enzyme solubilization. In the absence of adenine nucleotides the enzyme activity is very low although all protein components of F1-ATPase are released. The low concentrations of ATP or ADP required (5 microM) indicate that the high affinity nucleotide-binding sites are involved in enzyme stabilization. Other nucleotides tested (ITP, GTP, UTP, CTP) were found to be less effective. 2. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and immunodiffusion in agar plates revealed that in the absence of adenine nucleotides a fraction of F1-ATPase released by chloroform treatment is split into fragments. The part of the dissociated enzyme molecule has a molecular weight identical with that of a beta-subunit of F1-ATPase. 3. Dissociation of the F1-ATPase molecule could also be prevented by aurovertin. 4. Crude F1-ATPase solubilized by chloroform treatment can be further purified by Sepharose 6B gel filtration. Specific ATPase activity of the purified enzyme was 90 mumol Pi/min per mg protein and the enzyme was composed of five protein subunits (alpha, beta, gamma, delta, epsilon) with molecular weights 58 000, 55 000, 28 000, 13 000 and 8000, respectively. 5. Chloroform-released F1-ATPase from rat liver mitochondria displayed immunochemical cross-reactivity with that isolated from beef heart mitochondria.

Mitochondria were isolated from Euglena gracilis strain Z by pressure-breakage of the cells and sucrose-cushion centrifugation. Multiple peaks (2-4) were observed in the rate of phosphorylation with Mg-ADP-phosphate concentration curves. The phosphorylative and oxidative activities were highest with NADH as the substrate, moderate with succinate, and lowest with glutamate. Inhibition of phosphorylation with 2,4-dinitrophenol and carbonyl cyanide, m-chlorophenylhydrazone gave sigmoidal concentration curves, with the extent of inhibition by DNP depending on the substrate used. Inhibition of phosphorylation by valinomycin, atractyloside, or carboxyatractyloside was only approximately 60%. Oligomycin inhibited phosphorylation in 2 phases at low and high concentrations; it inhibited Mg-ATPase in a sigmoidal fashion. Both phosphorylation and oxidation had discontinuities in Arrhenius plots at 34 C and 18 C. The relative Mg2+-dependent nucleoside triphosphatase activity was: 1 for ATP and GTP, 0.6 for ITP, 0.15 for CTP and UTP; with Ca2+ in place pf Mg2+ this activity was 0.35. Both DNP and CCCP stimulated the Mg-ATPase 50-200%. The optimal pH for the stimulation was approximately 7 regardless of the uncoupler used, and approximately 8 without the uncouplers. The few differences observed between mitochodria from Euglena and those from other sources are probably due to the fragmentation of the reticular mitochondrial structure during isolation and not to unique characteristics of these mitochondria.

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.
