Preincubation of sarcoplasmic reticulum with 1 mM-ATP completely inhibits Ca2+ accumulation and stimulates ATPase activity by over 2-fold. This effect of ATP is obtained only when the preincubation is carried out in the presence of Pi, but not with arsenate, chloride or sulphate. The inhibition by ATP of Ca2+ accumulation is pH-dependent, increasing as the pH is increased above 7.5. Inhibition of Ca2+ accumulation is observed on preincubation with ATP, but not with CTP, UTP, GTP, ADP, adenosine 5'-[beta gamma-methylene]triphosphate or adenosine 5'-[beta gamma-imido]triphosphate. The presence of Ca2+, but not Mg2+, during the preincubation, prevents the effect of ATP + Pi on Ca2+ accumulation. The ATP + Pi inhibition of Ca2+ accumulation is not due to modification of the ATPase catalytic cycle, but rather to stimulation of a rapid Ca2+ efflux from actively or passively loaded vesicles. This Ca2+ efflux is inhibited by dicyclohexylcarbodi-imide. Photoaffinity labelling of sarcoplasmic-reticulum membranes with 8-azido-[alpha-32P]ATP resulted in specific labelling of two proteins, of approx. 160 and 44 kDa. These proteins were labelled in the presence of Pi, but not other anions.

A novel ATPase was solubilized from membranes of an acidothermophilic archaebacterium, Sulfolobus acidocaldarius, with low ionic strength buffer containing EDTA. The enzyme was purified to homogeneity by hydrophobic chromatography and gel filtration. The molecular weight of the purified enzyme was estimated to be 360,000. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the purified enzyme in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate revealed that it consisted of three kinds of subunits, alpha, beta, and gamma, whose molecular weights were approximately 69,000, 54,000, and 28,000, respectively, and the most probable subunit stoichiometry was alpha 3 beta 3 gamma 1. The purified ATPase hydrolyzed ATP, GTP, ITP, and CTP but not UTP, ADP, AMP, or p-nitrophenylphosphate. The enzyme was highly heat stable and showed an optimal temperature of 85 degrees C. It showed an optimal pH of around 5, very little activity at neutral pH, and another small activity peak at pH 8.5. The ATPase activity was significantly stimulated by bisulfite and bicarbonate ions, the optimal pH remaining unchanged. The Lineweaver-Burk plot was linear, and the Km for ATP and the Vmax were estimated to be 1.6 mM and 13 mumol Pi.mg.-1.min-1, respectively, at pH 5.2 at 60 degrees C in the presence of bisulfite. The chemical modification reagent, 7-chloro-4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole, caused inactivation of the ATPase activity although the enzyme was not inhibited by N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, N-ethyl-maleimide, azide or vanadate. These results suggest that the ATPase purified from membranes of S. acidocaldarius resembles other archaebacterial ATPases, although a counterpart of the gamma subunit has not been found in the latter. The relationship of the S. acidocaldarius ATPase to other ion-transporting ATPases, such as F0F1 type or E1E2 type ATPases, was discussed.

We recently found that the brain cytosolic microtubule-associated protein 1C (MAP 1C) is a microtubule-activated ATPase, capable of translocating microtubules in vitro in the direction corresponding to retrograde transport. (Paschal, B. M., H. S. Shpetner, and R. B. Vallee. 1987b. J. Cell Biol. 105:1273-1282; Paschal, B. M., and R. B. Vallee. 1987. Nature [Lond.]. 330:181-183.). Biochemical analysis of this protein (op. cit.) as well as scanning transmission electron microscopy revealed that MAP 1C is a brain cytoplasmic form of the ciliary and flagellar ATPase dynein (Vallee, R. B., J. S. Wall, B. M. Paschal, and H. S. Shpetner. 1988. Nature [Lond.]. 332:561-563). We have now characterized the ATPase activity of the brain enzyme in detail. We found that microtubule activation required polymeric tubulin and saturated with increasing tubulin concentration. The maximum activity at saturating tubulin (Vmax) varied from 186 to 239 nmol/min per mg. At low ionic strength, the Km for microtubules was 0.16 mg/ml tubulin, substantially lower than that previously reported for axonemal dynein. The microtubule-stimulated activity was extremely sensitive to changes in ionic strength and sulfhydryl oxidation state, both of which primarily affected the microtubule concentrations required for half-maximal activation. In a number of respects the brain dynein was enzymatically similar to both axonemal and egg dyneins. Thus, the ATPase required divalent cations, calcium stimulating activity less effectively than magnesium. The MgATPase was inhibited by metavandate (Ki = 5-10 microM for the microtubule-stimulated activity), 1 mM NEM, and 1 mM EHNA. In contrast to other dyneins, the brain enzyme hydrolyzed CTP, TTP, and GTP at higher rates than ATP. Thus, the enzymological properties of the brain cytoplasmic dynein are clearly related to those of other dyneins, though the brain enzyme is unique in its substrate specificity and in its high sensitivity to stimulation by microtubules.

A microtubule-stimulated ATPase is associated with particles that are responsible for microtubule gelation-contraction in vitro. These particles have been proposed to be slow axonal transport, component a, particulates (SCAPs) [Weisenberg, R. C., Flynn, J. J., Gao, B., Awodi, S., Skee, F., Goodman, S., & Riederer, B. (1987) Science (Washington, D.C.) 238, 1119-1122]. The SCAP ATPase activity is stimulated approximately twofold by microtubules. The microtubule-stimulated ATPase activity correlates with the occurrence of microtubule gelation-contraction. Both microtubule-stimulated ATPase activity and microtubule gelation-contraction are inhibited by millimolar calcium, 0.3 M KCl plus 2 mM ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), 5 microM vanadate, and millimolar N-ethylmaleimide (NEM). Neither the ATPase activity nor microtubule gelation-contraction is affected by high magnesium concentrations (up to 8 mM) or by the anti-ATPase drugs ouabain, oligomycin, sodium azide, and erythro-9-(2-hydroxy-3-nonyl)adenine (EHNA). Magnesium is required for both ATPase activity and microtubule gelation-contraction. Microtubule-stimulated hydrolysis of GTP, CTP, ITP, and UTP is less than 50% of ATP hydrolysis, and microtubule gelation-contraction is reduced in these nucleotides. On the basis of these results we propose that the microtubule-stimulated ATPase activity associated with SCAPs is a previously undescribed enzyme that is responsible for microtubule gelation-contraction in vitro and that is the likely motor for component a of slow axonal transport.

The Ca2+/Mg2+ ATPase of the rat heart sarcolemmal particles was solubilized with Triton X-100 after treating the membranes with trypsin and purified by high speed centrifugation, ammonium sulfate fractionation, hydrophobic chromatography and gel filtration. The purified enzyme was seen as a single protein band in non-denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and its molecular weight by gel filtration was found to be about 240,000. The enzyme utilized Ca-ATP or Mg-ATP as a substrate with high affinity sites (Km = 0.12-0.16 mM) and low affinity sites (Km = 1 mM). The enzyme also utilized CTP, GTP, ITP, UTP and ADP as substrates but at a lower rate in comparison to ATP. The enzyme was activated by Ca2+ (Ka = 0.4 mM) and Mg2+ (Ka = 0.2 mM) as well as by other cations in the order Ca2+ greater than Mg2+ greater than Mn2+ greater than Sr2+ greater than Ba2+ greater than Ni2+ greater than Cu2+. The ATPase activity in the presence of Ca2+ was markedly inhibited by Mg2+, Mn2+, Ni2+ and Cu2+ whereas the monovalent cations such as Na+ and K+ were without effect. The enzyme did not exhibit Ca2+ stimulated Mg2+ dependent ATPase activity and was insensitive to calmodulin, ouabain, verapamil, D-600, oligomycin, azide and vanadate. Optimum pH for Ca2+ or Mg2+ ATPase activity was 8.5-9.0. In view of the possible ectoenzyme nature of the ATPase, its role in adenine nucleotide and Ca2+ metabolism in the myocardium is discussed.

Plasmodium falciparum digestive vacuoles containing ferric oxide granules were purified from parasite homogenates by centrifugation on discontinuous sucrose gradients. Digestive vacuole membranes prepared by osmotic lysis and washed with KCl showed no detectable contamination by erythrocyte membrane proteins and only minimal contamination by non-vacuolar parasite proteins. Purified vacuolar membranes were 2.6-fold enriched in total parasite membrane ATPase activity. This ATPase was optimally active at pH 7 in the presence of at least 2 mM Mg2+. Ca2+ and Mn2+ were approximately 80-90% as effective as Mg2+, and Zn2+, Co2+ and Fe2+ also exerted some stimulatory effect. The vacuolar membrane also hydrolyzed GTP, UTP, CTP and ADP, but AMP and 3',5'-cyclic AMP were hydrolyzed only one-tenth as effectively as ATP. The ATPase was unaffected by vanadate, ouabain or oligomycin but was significantly inhibited by the proton pump inhibitors NEM and NBD-Cl. Of 6 antimalarial drugs tested, quinine and quinacrine were the most effective inhibitors and mefloquine was the least effective.

ATP analogues are studied for their effect on phosphatase and ATPase activities of Na+, K+-ATPase with the aim to obtain data concerning properties and structure of sites of high and low affinity to ATP. The activating effect of nucleotides on K+-dependent phosphatase reflecting their ability to be bound with the centres of high affinity decreases in a series: ATP, N1-oxy-ATP, CTP, JTP. In the domain of high ATP concentrations, where low affinity site is saturated, ADP is a competitive inhibition of ATPase reaction with Ki of 300 microM. The analysis of N1-oxy-ATP inhibiting effect has shown that its affinity to this site is six times less than that of ADP. The absence of the inhibiting effect of CDP, JDP, GDP and UDP in concentrations up to 10 mM testifies to the fact that sites of both low and high affinity to ATP are characterized by high specificity with respect to the adenine part of the substrate molecule.

Ethacrynic acid (EA) highly sensitive Mg2+-ATPase activity was demonstrated in rat brain microsomes. Marker enzyme studies suggested that the EA highly sensitive Mg2+-ATPase activity originated mainly from plasma membranes, and possibly from synaptic vesicles. Oligomycin did not affect the EA highly sensitive Mg2+-ATPase activity. Sulfhydryl reagents, such as N-ethylmaleimide and 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid), and anion transport inhibitors, such as 4-acetamide-4'-isothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid, 4,4'-diisothiocyano-stilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid and 2,4-dinitro-1-fluorobenzene, completely inhibited the EA highly sensitive Mg2+-ATPase activity with apparent Ki values at 5, 5, 8, 8 and 10 microM respectively. Treatment of microsomes with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid and ammonium sulfate increased the EA highly sensitive Mg2+ and Na+,K+-ATPase activities, but not EA less sensitive Mg2+- or HCO3-ATPase activity, 2- to 3-fold that in crude microsomes. Relative substrate specificities of ATP much greater than GTP greater than ITP greater than UTP, CTP, a Km for ATP at 0.77 mM, and an optimal pH at pH 7.4 were observed. Among the anions tested (Cl-, Br-, F-, HCO3-, I-, SCN-, NO3-), EA highly sensitive Mg2+-ATPase activity was stimulated significantly by Cl- and reduced by NO3-. These data suggest that a novel, plasma membrane-located and anion-sensitive Mg2+-ATPase activity exists in the brain.

Glycerol-induced tubulin polymerization supported by non-guanine nucleotides was examined. The electrophoretically homogeneous tubulin was devoid of nucleoside diphosphate kinase activity and 95% saturated with exchangeable GDP and nonexchangeable GTP. All purine ribonucleoside 5'-triphosphates were active but no polymerization occurred with CTP or UTP. All polymerization reactions, as a function of nucleotide concentration, were similar: above a minimum (threshold) concentration, as the amount of nucleotide increased the reaction became progressively more rapid and extensive with a progressively shorter nucleation period. Threshold concentrations of ATP, XTP, ITP and GTP were 0.6 mM, 0.3 mM, 30 microM and 7 microM, respectively. Most ribose- and polyphosphate-modified ATP analogs also supported polymerization at high concentrations, but the activity of these analogs relative to ATP was very similar to the activity of cognate GTP analogs relative to GTP. Polymerization with ATP was associated with an ATPase reaction. ATP hydrolysis was potently inhibited by GDP and GTP and altered by antimitotic drugs in parallel with the effects of these agents on GTP hydrolysis. Substantial amounts of [8-14C]GDP bound in the exchangeable site of tubulin were displaced during polymerization with GTP or ATP, but much higher concentrations of ATP were required for equivalent displacement of the tubulin-bound GDP. Polymerization with GTP or ATP was inhibited in a qualitatively similar manner by GDP, with increasing concentrations of GDP causing a progressive prolongation of the nucleation period and reduction in reaction rate and extent. However, complete inhibition of polymerization required that GDP:GTP much greater than 1, but that GDP:ATP much less than 1. Inhibition appeared to be primarily competitive, since with higher triphosphate concentrations higher GDP concentrations were required for comparable inhibition. We conclude that ATP effects on tubulin polymerization are mediated through a feeble interaction at the exchangeable GTP site.

Type I topoisomerases have been purified from nuclei and mitochondria of human acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells. Both of these ATP-independent enzymes are actually found to be inhibited by ATP at physiologically significant concentrations. Other adenine nucleotides showed varying effects: ADP inhibited only at high concentrations; AMP had no effect on either topoisomerase. Both enzymes were also inhibited by dATP. The importance of the adenine ring structure was confirmed by the lack of an inhibitory effect observed with equivalent levels of GTP, UTP, CTP, or their deoxy counterparts. Assays performed in the presence of nonhydrolyzable analogs of ATP suggest that hydrolysis of ATP does not accompany this enzyme inhibition. This was supported by direct determination of the ATPase activity of the purified enzymes. Type I topoisomerase from calf thymus and HeLa cells were also found to be sensitive to ATP. These results suggest that mammalian type I topoisomerases in general may possess a nucleotide-binding site that may be involved in regulation of enzyme activity.
