The action of atebrin on purified adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) from Micrococcus lysodeikticus was studied as well as on the membrane-bound and soluble ATPases from Escherichia coli and Bacillus megaterium. Atebrin inhibited the Ca(2+)-dependent activity of all these enzymes, and the inhibition was reversed by an excess of Ca(2+) ions. Kinetic studies carried out with the purified enzyme from M. lysodeikticus showed that the inhibition by atebrin was strongly cooperative, suggesting the complex nature of the process. On the other hand, atebrin stimulated the Mg(2+)ATPase activity of the M. lysodeikticus enzyme, displacing its adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP)/Mg(2+) optimum ratios, but inhibited the Mg(2+)-ATPase activity of E. coli provided that ATP was in excess over Mg(2+), i.e., that the ATP/Mg(2+) ratio was higher than its optimum. These results suggest that divalent cations influence the bacterial ATPases in different ways depending on the type of divalent ion and/or enzyme. The effect of atebrin on bacterial ATPases may reflect those differences, and its complex mechanism of action might be related to the existence of more than one site for divalent cations and/or distinct conformational states in these enzymes.

Ruthenium red was found to inhibit actin-activated myosin Mg(2+)-ATPase in smooth muscle and to bind to myosin heavy chain, but not to F-actin. The inhibition by Ruthenium red of actin-activated Mg(2+)-ATPase was of the competitive type with respect to actin (Ki 4.4 microM) and of the non-competitive type with respect to ATP (Ki 6.6 microM). However, Ruthenium red scarcely dissociated the acto-heavy meromyosin complex during the ATPase reaction. These results suggest that Ruthenium red interacts directly with the binding site for F-actin on the myosin heavy chain. This site is considered to be necessary not for maintaining the binding affinity of myosin for F-actin, but for activation of the Mg(2+)-ATPase.

Synthetic ether lipids (EL) exert their antiproliferative action on leukemic cells through localization in the plasma membrane with subsequent biochemical effects which are still being elucidated. In the present study, the modulation of membrane-linked ATPase activity was investigated in relation to changes in membrane fluidity of HL60 and K562 human leukemic cells. Incubation of HL60 and K562 cells with EL under non-cytotoxic conditions caused significant membrane fluidization which was related to the membrane cholesterol (CHOL) levels. HL60 cells, which are sensitive to the cytotoxic action of EL, had a lower basal CHOL content. When HL60 cells were loaded with CHOL, Na+, K(+)-ATPase activity was reduced significantly compared to that of untreated cells. In contrast, CHOL-deprived K562 cells had twice the Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity of unmodified K562 cells. Na+K(+)- and Mg(2+)-ATPase activities were stimulated significantly in both cell lines by EL at concentrations lower than 20 microM. This stimulation was greater in cells richer in CHOL, such as K562 cells and CHOL-enriched HL60 cells. In contrast, Na+,K(+)-ATPase in both cell lines was inhibited by EL above 20 microM regardless of the CHOL content. Mg(2+)-ATPase activity was not related to cell CHOL content and was not inhibited by EL above 20 microM.

Four different oil-based diets were used in a feeding study involving rats to assess the relationship between the fatty acid composition of the dietary fat and its influence on erythrocyte membrane (EM) lipid composition and the activities of membrane-bound enzymes. Nutritionally adequate diets containing 20% groundnut (GNO), coconut (CO), safflower (SO), or mustard oil (MO) were fed to weanling CFY rats for 4 months. EMs were analyzed for total cholesterol, phospholipids, fatty acid profiles, and sialic acid content. Activities of membrane-bound enzymes such as Na+, K(+)-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase), Mg(2+)-ATPase, Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase, and acetylcholinesterase were also assayed. The activities of all membrane-bound enzymes, except Mg(2+)-ATPase, and sialic acid content were higher in the MO-fed group than in the rest of the groups. Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase activity was distinctly lower in the SO-fed group than in the other groups. Cholesterol to phospholipid molar ratio was similar in all the groups. However, SO- and MO-fed groups displayed an increased cholesterol content and a higher degree of unsaturation in the membrane fatty acid composition. The higher membrane fatty acid unsaturation in the SO-fed group was principally due to linoleic (18:2) and arachidonic (20:4) acids, while in the MO-fed group it was mainly due to oleic (18:1), eicosenoic (20:1), erucic (22:1), and linoleic (18:2) acids. These results suggest a relationship between the quality of dietary fat, EM fatty acyl composition, and the activities of membrane-bound enzymes.

The effect of cAMP on active Ca2+ extrusion across the plasma membrane of intact human platelets was studied using quin2, a fluorimetric indicator of free Ca2+ in the cytoplasmic compartment ([Ca2+]cyt). Elevations of cAMP were achieved by incubation with dibutyryl-cAMP or by forskolin, which was found to selectively elevate cAMP without affecting cGMP levels. Progress curves of Ca2+ extrusion from quin2-overloaded platelets were measured. The rate vs. [Ca2+]cyt characteristic was calculated as previously described (Johansson, J.S. and Haynes, D.H. (1988) J. Membr. Biol. 104, 147-163). Forskolin, at a maximally effective concentration of 10 microM, was shown to stimulate Ca2+ extrusion by increasing by a factor of 1.6 +/- 0.5 the Vm of a saturable component, previously identified with a Ca(2+)-Mg(2+)-ATPase located in the plasma membrane. Neither the Km (80 nM) or Hill coefficient (1.7 +/- 0.3) of the Ca(2+)-ATPase was affected. Forskolin had no effect on the linear, non-saturable component of extrusion (previously identified with a Na+/Ca2+ exchanger) over the [Ca2+]cyt range examined (50-1500 nM). Dibutyryl-cAMP (Bt2-cAMP, 1 mM) stimulated the Ca(2+)-Mg(2+)-ATPase component of Ca2+ extrusion by a factor of 2.0 +/- 0.6. Separate experiments showed that 10 microM forskolin reduces the resting [Ca2+]cyt from 112 nM to 96 nM. Mathematical analysis showed that this can be accounted for by the above-mentioned increase in Vm of the pump, countered by a 37-74% increase in the rate constant for passive Ca2+ leakage across the plasma membrane. The results suggest two mechanisms by which prostacyclin-induced elevation of cAMP inhibits platelet aggregation: (a) lowering of resting [Ca2+]cyt and (b) increasing the rate of Ca2+ extrusion after the initial influx or triggered release event.

beta-Eudesmol, a major component of the crude drug "So-jutsu" (Atractylodis Lanceae Rhizoma), inhibited Na+, K(+)-ATPase activity most strongly among the various kinds of phosphatases examined. It also inhibited Ca(2+)-ATPase and H+, K(+)-ATPase, but to a lesser extent. Its effect on Mg(2+)-ATPase was minute. No effects on H(+)-ATPase or alkaline and acid phosphatase activities were observed. The effects of beta-eudesmol on horse kidney Na+, K(+)-ATPase were studied in detail, and the following results were obtained: (1) beta-eudesmol inhibited the Na+, K(+)-ATPase activity with an I50 value of 1.6 x 10(-4) M. The mode of its inhibition was uncompetitive with respect to ATP; (2) it prevented the stimulation of enzyme activity by Na+. The inhibition gradually increased in accord with the increase of Na+ concentration, and it was constant when Na+ was higher than 6.3 mM; (3) it did not alter the K+ concentration necessary for half-maximal activation (K0.5 for K+); and (4) it inhibited the enzyme activity with a mode of action different from ouabain. Phosphorylation of enzyme with [gamma-32P]ATP was inhibited by beta-eudesmol with an I50 of 1.4 x 10(-4) M. The inhibition was greater in 1 M NaCl than in 0.1 M NaCl. It had no effects on dephosphorylation steps, i.e. none of the non-specific, the ADP-sensitive (Na.E1-P----Na.E1) and the K(+)-dependent (E2-P----K.E2) dephosphorylation processes were affected. These results suggest that beta-eudesmol, a relatively specific inhibitor of Na+, K(+)-ATPase, interacts with the enzyme in the Na.E1 form and inhibits the reaction step Na.E1----Na.E1-P.

The activities of Na+K(+)- and Mg(2+)-ATPases in mitochondrial, microsomal, and cytosolic fractions of Singi fish (Heteropneustes fossilis Bloch) brain were investigated after injections of various doses (0.012, 0.025, 0.05, and 0.10 micrograms/g) of triiodothyronine (T3) for 3 consecutive days. Both ATPases were found in the mitochondrial and microsomal fractions. The cytosolic fraction showed only Mg(2+)-ATPase activity. Mitochondrial Na+K(+)-ATPase activity increased to almost the same level in fish treated with 0.025, 0.05, or 0.10 micrograms of T3/g, while the T3 dose of 0.012 micrograms/g was ineffective in this respect. Microsomal Na+K(+)-ATPase activity increased to about the same level with all of the doses of T3 used. No detectable amount of Na+K(+)-ATPase was found in the brain cytosolic fraction. Mitochondrial Mg(2+)-ATPase activity was enhanced with 0.025, 0.05, and 0.10 micrograms of T3/g. The last dose, however, produced a higher increase in activity than the other two doses. Surprisingly, microsomal and cytosolic Mg(2+)-ATPase activity was not increased by T3 treatment. Although T3 concentrations rose sharply after each T3 injection, the serum T3 level in T3-injected fish was not different from that in the control as observed on the fourth day. The T3-induced rise of Na+K(+)- and Mg(2+)-ATPase activities was inhibited by cycloheximide treatment. Immersion of Singi fishes in thiourea significantly reduced brain Na+K(+)-ATPase activity in microsomal and mitochondrial fractions but decreased Mg(2+)-ATPase activity only in the mitochondrial fraction. Three consecutive daily injections of T3 (0.10 micrograms/g) into the thiourea-treated fishes increased their ATPase activities even beyond the control level.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Na+/K(+)-ATPase, Mg(2+)-ATPase and sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+)-ATPase are examined in cultured human skeletal muscle cells of different maturation grade and in human skeletal muscle. Na+/K(+)-ATPase is investigated by measuring ouabain binding and the activities of Na+/K(+)-ATPase and K(+)-dependent 3-O-methylfluorescein phosphatase (3-O-MFPase). SR Ca(2+)-ATPase is examined by ELISA, Ca(2+)-dependent phosphorylation and its activities on ATP and 3-O-methylfluorescein phosphate. Na+/K(+)-ATPase and SR Ca(2+)-ATPase are localized by immunocytochemistry. The activities of Na+/K(+)-ATPase and SR Ca(2+)-ATPase show a good correlation with the other assayed parameters of these ion pumps. All ATPase parameters investigated increase with the maturation grade of the cultured muscle cells. The number of ouabain-binding sites and the activities of Na+/K(+)-ATPase and K(+)-dependent 3-O-MFPase are significantly higher in cultured muscle cells than in muscle. The Mg(2+)-ATPase activity, the content of SR Ca(2+)-ATPase and the activities of SR Ca(2+)-ATPase and Ca(2+)-dependent 3-O-MFPase remain significantly lower in cultured cells than in muscle. The ouabain-binding constant and the molecular activities of Na+/K(+)-ATPase and SR Ca(2+)-ATPase are equal in muscle and cultured cells. During ageing of human muscle the activity as well as the concentration of SR Ca(2+)-ATPase decrease. Thus the changes of the activities of the ATPases are caused by variations of the number of their molecules. Na+/K(+)-ATPase is localized in the periphery of fast- and slow-twitch muscle fibers and at the sarcomeric I-band. SR Ca(2+)-ATPase is predominantly confined to the I-band, whereas fast-twitch fibers are much more immunoreactive than slow-twitch fibers. The presence of cross-striation for Na+/K(+)-ATPase and SR Ca(2+)-ATPase in highly matured cultured muscle cells indicate the development and subcellular organization of a transverse tubular system and SR, respectively, which resembles the in vivo situation.

A (Ca(2+)-Mg2+)-ATPase associated with rat liver lysosomal membranes was purified about 300-fold over the lysosomal membranes with a 7% recovery as determined from the pattern on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of SDS. The purification procedure included: preparation of lysosomal membranes, solubilization of the membrane with Triton X-100, WGA-Sepharose 6B, Con A-Sepharose, hydroxylapatite chromatography, and preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The molecular mass, estimated by gel filtration with Sephacryl S-300 HR, was approximately 340 kDa, and SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed the enzyme to be composed of four identical subunits with an apparent molecular mass of 85 kDa. The isoelectric point of the purified enzyme was 3.6. The enzyme had a pH optimum of 4.5, a Km value for ATP of 0.17 mM and a Vmax of 71.4 mumol/min/mg protein at 37 degrees C. This enzyme hydrolyzed nucleotide triphosphates and ADP but did not act on p-nitrophenyl phosphate and AMP. The effects of Ca2+ and Mg2+ on the ATPase were not additive, thereby indicating that both Ca2+ and Mg(2+)-ATPase activities are manifested by the same enzyme. The (Ca(2+)-Mg2+)-ATPase differed from H(+)-ATPase in lysosomal membranes, since the enzyme was not inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide but was inhibited by vanadate. The effects of some other metal ions and compounds on this enzyme were also investigated. The N-terminal 18 residues of (Ca(2+)-Mg2+)-ATPase were determined.

The effects of BRB-I-28, SAZ-VII-22 and SAZ-VII-23, a novel class of antiarrhythmic agents and other 3,7-diheterobicyclo[3.3.1]nonane (DHBCN) derivatives on guinea pig myocardial Na+,K(+)-ATPase and Mg(2+)-activated ATPase activities were investigated in comparison with those of tedisamil, lidocaine and ouabain. BRB-I-28, SAZ-VII-22, SAZ-VII-23, tedisamil and their derivatives produced concentration-dependent inhibition on both Na+,K(+)-ATPase and Mg(2+)-activated ATPase. Ouabain had no effect on the Mg(2+)-activated ATPase activity and GLG-IV-44 had no significant inhibition on Na+,K(+)-ATPase. Molar refractivity, retention time in reverse-phase HPLC, and partition coefficients were determined and the influence of these three parameters on the inhibitory effects of DHBCN on ATPase was examined. It seems that inhibitory effects of DHBCN derivatives on Na+,K(+)-ATPase and Mg(2+)-activated ATPase increase with an increase in lipophilicity, while hydrophilic groups of the drugs may not be important for interaction between drugs and ATPases. The effects of BRB-I-28 on contractile force development in rabbit atrial and papillary muscles were studied. At paced rates of 0.5 and 1.0 Hz in atrial muscle, BRB-I-28 produced an apparent positive inotropic effect in isolated rabbit atrial muscle, which is consistent with its inhibitory effects on Na+,K(+)-ATPase and Mg(2+)-ATPase activities. Inhibitory effects on myocardial Na+,K(+)-ATPase and Mg(2+)-activated ATPase activities may be the basis of some electrophysiological effects of antiarrhythmic properties of BRB-I-28, SAZ-VII-22, SAZ-VII-23, and tedisamil.
