A transcription factor required for synthesis of accurately initiated run-off transcripts by RNA polymerase II has been purified and shown to have an associated DNA-dependent ATPase (dATPase) activity that is strongly stimulated by the TATA region of promoters. This transcription factor, designated delta, was purified more than 3000-fold from extracts of crude rat liver nuclei and has a native molecular mass of approximately 230 kDa. DNA-dependent ATPase (dATPase) and transcription activities copurify when delta is analyzed by hydrophobic interaction and ion-exchange HPLC, arguing that transcription factor delta possesses an ATPase (dATPase) activity. ATPase (dATPase) is specific for adenine nucleotides; ATP and dATP, but not CTP, UTP, or GTP, are hydrolyzed. ATPase (dATPase) is stimulated by both double-stranded and single-stranded DNAs, including pUC18, ssM13, and poly(dT); however, DNA fragments containing the TATA region of either the adenovirus 2 major late or mouse interleukin 3 promoters stimulate ATPase as much as 10-fold more effectively than DNA fragments containing nonpromoter sequences. These data suggest the intriguing possibility that delta plays a critical role in the ATP (dATP)-dependent activation of run-off transcription through a direct interaction with the TATA region of promoters.

A study was made of the activity of nucleoside diphosphatase (NDPase, EC 3.6.1.16) and nucleoside triphosphatase (NTPase, EC 3.6.1.15) that catalyze enzymatic dephosphorylation of UDP, CDP, UTP, and CTP in mitochondria and postmitochondrial supernatant fraction of rat liver 30 min, 1, 3, 6 and 24 h following 60Co-gamma-irradiation with a dose of 774 mC/kg. The observed phase changes in the enzyme activity depended on the times of exposure, a cell fraction, and nucleotides under study. Both uridylic and cytidylic nucleotides exhibited a significant increase in the their enzymatic disintegration being more pronounced at a comparatively later times, that is, 6 h, and particularly, 24 h after irradiation.

The radiation inactivation analysis of Na+, K+-ATPase, (EC 3.6.1.37) from two different sources was carried out using ATP, CTP, GTP and p-NPP as substrates. In the case of Na+, K+-ATPase from the bovine brain the relation between the logarithm of the residual activity and the radiation dose is strictly linear, which permits calculating 75-90 kDa (for 3 mM GTP and 10 mM p-NPP). Duck salt glands Na+, K+-ATPase reveals larger target sizes: 350 kDa for ATP hydrolysis in saturating concentrations and 145-190 kDa in the case of GTP and p-NPP or low concentration of ATP (30 microM). A conclusion is drawn that while hydrolyzing substrates with complex kinetics (ATP and CTP) the enzyme functions like oligomer. The interaction of nucleotide with substrate-binding site of low affinity induces the aggregation of monomers.

1. Sea bass kidney microsomal preparations contain two Mg2+ dependent ATPase activities: the ouabain-sensitive (Na+ + K+)-ATPase and an ouabain-insensitive Na+-ATPase, requiring different assay conditions. The (Na+ + K+)-ATPase under the optimal conditions of pH 7.0, 100 mM Na+, 25 mM K+, 10 mM Mg2+, 5 mM ATP exhibits an average specific activity (S.A.) of 59 mumol Pi/mg protein per hr whereas the Na+-ATPase under the conditions of pH 6.0, 40 mM Na+, 1.5 mM MgATP, 1 mM ouabain has a maximal S.A. of 13.9 mumol Pi/mg protein per hr. 2. The (Na+ + K+)-ATPase is specifically inhibited by ouabain and vanadate; the Na+-ATPase specifically by ethacrynic acid and preferentially by frusemide; both activities are similarly inhibited by Ca2+. 3. The (Na+ + K+)-ATPase is specific for ATP and Na+, whereas the Na+-ATPase hydrolyzes other substrates in the efficiency order ATP greater than GTP greater than CTP greater than UTP and can be activated also by K+, NH4+ or Li+. 4. Minor differences between the two activities lie in the affinity for Na+, Mg2+, ATP and in the thermosensitivity. 5. The comparison between the two activities and with what has been reported in the literature only partly agree with our findings. It tentatively suggests that on the one hand two separate enzymes exist which are related to Na+ transport and, on the other, a distinct modulation in vivo in different tissues.

The character of temperature dependence of hydrolytic and transport functions of Na, K-ATPase is analyzed. It is shown that the nonlinear Arrhenius plot is typical only of "allosteric" substrates ATP and CTP, the inflection of curves reflecting sensitivity of the enzyme to the phase reconstructions of membrane lipids. The linear Arrhenius plots are typical of GTP, UTP- p-NPP and acetyl phosphate, the substrates demonstrating "normal" kinetics of Michaelis and not providing the active transport of ions. A conclusion is drawn that anomalies on the Na, K-ATPase temperature dependence evidence for the lipid control of intersubunit interactions in the supermolecular complex of Na, K-ATPase which are realized during the active transport of ions.

H+-translocating, Mg2+-ATPase was solubilized from vacuolar membranes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae with the zwitterionic detergent N-tetradecyl-N,N-dimethyl-3-ammonio-1-propanesulfonate and purified by glycerol density gradient centrifugation. Partially purified vacuolar membrane H+-ATPase, which had a specific activity of 18 units/mg of protein, was separated almost completely from acid phosphatase and alkaline phosphatase. The purified enzyme required phospholipids for maximal activity and hydrolyzed ATP, GTP, UTP, and CTP, with this order of preference. Its Km value for Mg2+-ATP was determined to be 0.21 mM and its optimal pH was 6.9. ADP inhibited the enzyme activity competitively, with a Ki value of 0.31 mM. The activity of purified ATPase was strongly inhibited by N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide, tributyltin, 7-chloro-4-nitrobenzoxazole, diethylstilbestrol, and quercetin, but was not affected by oligomycin, sodium azide, sodium vanadate, or miconazole. It was not inhibited at all by antiserum against mitochondrial F1-ATPase or mitochondrial F1-ATPase inhibitor protein. These results indicated that vacuolar membrane H+-ATPase is different from either yeast plasma membrane H+-ATPase or mitochondrial F1-ATPase. The vacuolar membrane H+-ATPase was found to be composed of two major polypeptides a and b of Mr = 89,000 and 64,000, respectively, and a N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide binding polypeptide c of Mr = 19,500, whose polypeptide composition was also different from those of either plasma membrane H+-ATPase or mitochondrial F1-ATPase of S. cerevisiae.

Previous investigation showed two distinct ATP-dependent proton-transporting systems in microsomal vesicle from radish seedlings, one inhibited by vanadate and one inhibited by NO-3. On the bases of the effects of these inhibitors we could discriminate two distinct ATPase activities in the same material. The NO-3 sensitive activity was separated from the vanadate-sensitive activity and partially purified by a single-step chromatographic method, which lead to approx 35-fold purification from the microsomes and to a specific activity of 2.3 mumol Pi X min-1 X mg protein-1, at 30 degrees C. The partially purified activity was specific for ATP, some activity being observed toward GTP, and even less toward CTP, UTP and ITP. No significant Pi hydrolysis was found with ADP, AMP, p-nitrophenylphosphate and glucose 6-phosphate. ADP but not AMP was inhibiting in the presence of ATP. The activity was dependent on divalent cations in the order of preference: Mg2+ greater than Mn2+ greater than Co2+ greater than Ca2+ greater than Zn2+. The activity was unaffected by monovalent cations, strongly activated by Cl-, inhibited by 90% by 50 mM NO-3, virtually unaffected by oligomycin and NaN3. At least 90% of the activity was abolished in the presence of each: 10 microM N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, 10 microM erythrosin B, 10 mu mersalyl, 100 microM trimethyltin, 100 microM diethylstilbestrol, 100 microM N-ethylmaleimide. No inhibition has been found in the presence of Ca2+, at a concentration blocking the vanadate-sensitive activity. Nigericin, gramicidin and carbonylcyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone stimulated the activity of this preparation after it was incubated in the presence of sonicated phospholipids, suggesting the capacity of the ATPase to function as a H+-transporting system. All characteristics mentioned were closely similar to those described in the vacuolar ATPases.

Bass gill microsomal preparations contain a Mg2+-dependent Na+-stimulated ATPase activity in the absence of K+, whose characteristics are compared with those of the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase of the same preparations. The activity at 30 degrees C is 11.3 mumol Pi X mg-1 protein X hr-1 under optimal conditions (5 mM MgATP, 75 mM Na+, 75 mM HEPES, pH 6.0) and exhibits a lower pH optimum than the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase. The Na+ stimulation of ATPase is only 17% inhibited by 10-3M ouabain and completely abolished by 2.5 mM ethacrinic acid which on the contrary cause, respectively, 100% and 34% inhibition of the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase. Both Na+-and (Na+ + K+)-stimulated activities can hydrolyze nucleotides other than ATP in the efficiency order ATP greater than CTP greater than UTP greater than GTP and ATP greater than CTP greater than GPT greater than UTP, respectively. In the presence of 10(-3)M ouabain millimolar concentrations of K+ ion lower the Na+ activation (90% inhibition at 40 mM K+). The Na+-ATPase is less sensitive than (Na+ + K+)-ATPase to the Ca2+ induced inhibition as the former is only 57.5% inhibited by a concentration of 1 X 10(-2)M which completely suppresses the latter. The thermosensitivity follows the order Mg2+--greater than (Na+ + K+)--greater than Na+-ATPase. A similar break of the Arrhenius plot of the three enzymes is found. Only some of these characteristics do coincide with those of a Na+-ATPase described elsewhere. A presumptive physiological role of Na+-ATPase activity in seawater adapted teleost gills is suggested.

Nuclear envelopes contain a nucleoside triphosphatase. Hydrolysis of ATP or GTP by this enzyme parallels energy-dependent efflux of poly(A)-containing mRNA from nuclei in vitro. Nucleoside triphosphatase has been purified from highly purified preparations of nuclear envelopes from rat liver by three successive affinity steps. The essentially homogeneous enzyme has an apparent molecular weight of 40,000 as checked by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and displays a rather broad substrate specificity. ATP and GTP are hydrolyzed at nearly equal rates, whereas UTP and CTP are only half as active as substrates. For optimal activity, a one-to-one ratio of a divalent cation (Mg2+, Mn2+, or Ca2+) and the nucleoside triphosphate substrate, an alkaline pH and a temperature of 34 degrees C are required. In contrast to the enzyme associated with nuclear envelopes which is stimulated by synthetic poly(A) and the poly(A) segment of the natural poly(A)-containing mRNA, homogeneous nucleoside triphosphatase is unable to be modulated by this polynucleotide species.

Membranes from Halobacterium saccharovorum contained a cryptic ATPase which required Mg2+ or Mn2+ and was activated by Triton X-100. The optimal pH for ATP hydrolysis was 9-10. ATP or GTP were hydrolyzed at the same rate while ITP, CTP, and UTP were hydrolyzed at about half that rate. The products of ATP hydrolysis were ADP and phosphate. The ATPase required high concentrations (3.5 M) of NaCl for maximum activity. ADP was a competitive inhibitor of the activity, with an apparent Ki of 50 microM. Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD) inhibited ATP hydrolysis. The inhibition was marginal at the optimum pH of the enzyme. When the ATPase was preincubated with DCCD at varying pH values, but assayed at the optimal pH for activity, DCCD inhibition was observed to increase with increasing acidity of the preincubation medium. DCCD inhibition was also dependent on time of preincubation, and protein and DCCD concentrations. When preincubated at pH 6.0 for 4 h at a protein:DCCD ratio of 40 (w/w), ATPase activity was inhibited 90%.
