The antimalarial drug chloroquine is found to inhibit Na+, K(+)-ATPase, Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase, Ca(2+)-ATPase, pNPPase and acetylcholinesterase activities in different organs of rat in vivo when injected for a certain periods of time. The inhibition seems to be due to the changes in the level of phospholipid, cholesterol and the fatty acid of the lipid and the alteration of the fluidity of the microsomal membranes. However, the enzyme activities return to the normal level in about 2-3 weeks after the discontinuation of the drug suggesting that the drug effect is reversible.

The effect of erythropoietin (Ep), a glycoprotein hormone, has been studied on lipid peroxidation induced by Cu2+ and ascorbate in vitro, Mg2+ ATPase activity and spectrin of RBC membrane. Our present investigation reveals that Cu2+ and ascorbic acid increases lipid peroxidation of RBC membrane significantly. It has further been observed that under the same experimental condition spectrin, a major cytoskeleton membrane protein, and Mg(2+)-ATPase activity of RBC membrane decrease significantly. However, exogenous administration of Ep completely restores lipid peroxidation and Mg(2+)-ATPase activity and partially recovers spectrin of RBC membrane.

Na(+)-K(+)-dependent ouabain-sensitive ATPase and Mg(2+)-ATPase activities have been assayed in brain and kidney of healthy and Schistosoma mansoni-infected mice before and after praziquantel (EMBAY 8440, CAS 5526874-1) treatment. Schistosoma mansoni infection caused a moderate decrease of brain Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity with a marked inhibition of its Mg-stimulated ATPase. Meanwhile, a marked inhibition in both renal ATPase activities was observed in infected mice. Treatment of the infected mice with praziquantel (2 x 500 mg/kg b.wt.) reversed the inhibitory effect of infection on brain and kidney ATPase, so that the activity of both renal ATPase and that of brain Mg-ATPase were nearly corrected while the activity of brain Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase was increased to an extent greater than normal values. However, treatment of normal mice with praziquantel did not affect any of the measured parameters. Possible explanations of these findings are given.

Evidence is presented for the sensitivity of the synaptosomal plasma membrane Mg(2+)-ATPase activity to arachidonic acid being dependent on the functional state of Na+,K(+)-ATPase. An "Inversion effect" was observed at arachidonic acid concentrations exceeding 80 mumol/l when the Mg(2+)-ATPase activity (after ouabain addition) is higher than the total ATPase activity (without ouabain). The "Inversion effect" is reduced by cyclooxygenase inhibitor indomethacin or acetylsalicylic acid and restored by prostaglandin PGA2 or PGD2.

The effects of divalent cations and of some inhibitors on the activities of alkaline phosphatase and ATPase were examined in rat jejunal brush-border membranes (BBM) isolated by tha Ca(2+)-(BBMCa) or the Mg(2+)-precipitation method (BBMMg). Similar results were found in BBMCa and BBMMg though generally higher in BBMCa. Alkaline phosphatase activity was stimulated by 5 mM MgCl2 (30% to 44%), but not by 5 mM CaCl2 or 0.1 mM ZnCl2, at pH 9.5 or 7.4. ATPase activity was equally stimulated by 5 mM MgCl2 and by 5 mM CaCI2 (about 150%). Alkaline phosphatase activity was significantly inhibited by 1 mM vanadate, 5 mM diamox, 5.0 mM L-leucine and 1 mM theophylline. In contrast, Ca(2+)-ATPase and Mg(2+)-ATPase activities were not depressed by those alkaline phosphatase inhibitors, but were inhibited by 0.1 mM trifluoperazine (more than 70%). 0.1 mM ZnCl2 also appeared to be inhibitory to Ca(2+)-ATPase and Mg(2+)-ATPase, but not to alkaline phosphatase activity even in the presence of Ca2+ and Mg2+. These results suggest that Ca(2+)-ATPase and Mg(2+)-ATPase activities of the rat jejunal BBM are not merely manifestations of alkaline phosphatase, but rather belong to (a) distinct enzyme(s).

We characterized Mg(2+)-dependent ATPase activity in membranes from the renal cortex, the outer and inner stripes of the outer medulla, and papillary vesicles. In all regions, there was Mg(2+)-dependent ATPase activity that was resistant to oligomycin and vanadate and sensitive to N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD), N-ethylmaleimide, and filipin. DCCD-Sensitive Mg(2+)-ATPase activity was highest in the inner stripe of the outer medulla and lowest in the cortex, with intermediate values in the outer stripe of the outer medulla and papilla. The Km for ATP, however, was similar among the different regions of the kidney. DCCD-Sensitive Mg(2+)-ATPase activity was critically dependent upon chloride with Km for Cl- in the range of 2-5 mM. In the presence of ATP, this ATPase was capable of H+ translocation, as assessed by acridine orange quenching. Inhibitors of ATPase activity prevented H+ translocation, which suggests that the Mg(2+)-ATPase represents, at least in part, an H(+)-ATPase. H+ transport was likewise critically dependent upon chloride, with similar Km. The effect of chloride on H+ translocation was blocked by the chloride channel inhibitor, diphenylamine-2 carboxylic acid. In the absence of chloride, H+ transport was abolished, but it could be partially restored by the creation of a favorable electric gradient by K+ and valinomycin. These studies demonstrate that the renal H(+)-ATPase exhibits different activities in various regions of the kidney. The ATPase activity and H+ translocation are critically dependent upon the presence of chloride, which suggests that chloride influences H+ translocation by dissipating the H+ gradient and acting at the catalytic site of the ATPase.

Myosin I is an actin-based motor responsible for powering a wide variety of motile activities in amebae and slime molds and has been found previously in vertebrates as the lateral bridges within intestinal epithelial cell microvilli. Although neurons exhibit extensive cellular and intracellular motility, including the production of ameboid-like growth cones during development, the proteins responsible for the motor in these processes are unknown. Here, we report the isolation of a partially purified protein fraction from bovine brain that is enriched for a 150-kDa protein; immunochemical and biochemical analyses suggest that this protein possesses a number of functional properties that have been ascribed to myosin I from various sources. These properties include an elevated K(+)-EDTA ATPase, a modest actin-activated Mg(2+)-ATPase, the ability to bind calmodulin, and a ready association with phospholipid vesicles made from phosphatidylserine, but not from phosphatidylcholine. The combination of these properties, together with a molecular mass of 150 kDa (most myosin I molecules found to date have molecular masses in the range 110-130 kDa) yet recognition by an anti-myosin I antibody, suggests the presence of a new member of the myosin I family within mammalian brain.

We present a new method to specifically and stably label proteins by attaching extrinsic probes to amino acids that are thiophosphorylated by protein kinases and ATP gamma S. The method was demonstrated for labeling of a thiophosphorylatable serine of the isolated regulatory light chain of smooth muscle myosin. We stoichiometrically blocked the single thiol (Cys-108) either by forming a reversible intermolecular disulfide bond or by reacting with iodoacetic acid. The protein was stoichiometrically thiophosphorylated at Ser-19 by myosin light chain kinase and ATP gamma S. The nucleophilic sulfur of the protein phosphorothioate was coupled at pH 7.9 and 25 degrees C to the fluorescent haloacetate [3H]-5-[[2-[(iodoacetyl)-amino]ethyl]amino]naphthalene-1- sulfonic acid ([3H]IAEDANS) by displacement of the iodide. Typical labeling efficiencies were 70-100%. The labeling was specific for the thiophosphorylated Ser-19, as determined from the sequences of two labeled peptides isolated from a tryptic digest of the labeled protein. [3H]IAEDANS attached to the thiophosphorylated Ser-19 was stable at pH 3-10 at 25 degrees C, and to boiling in high concentrations of reductant. The labeled light chains were efficiently exchanged for unlabeled regulatory light chains of the whole myosin molecule. The resulting labeled myosin had normal ATPase activities in the absence of actin, indicating that the modification of Ser-19 and the exchange of the labeled light chain into myosin did not significantly disrupt the protein. The labeled myosin partially retained the elevated actin-activated Mg(2+)-ATPase activity which is characteristic of thiophosphorylated myosin. This indicates that labeling of the thiophosphate group with [3H]IAEDANS did not completely disrupt the functional properties of the thiophosphorylated protein in the presence of actin.

From striated (m. pectoralis and myocardium) and smooth (myometrium) muscle tissues of hen, by means of differential centrifugation with Ca-oxalate loading, membrane preparations were obtained with high activity of Mg(2+)-ATPase, i.e. a marker enzyme of tubular membranes of T-system of skeletal muscles. Some properties (pH and temperature optima) of this enzyme were investigated and compared to those of Ca(2+)-ATPase from membranes of the sarcoplasmic reticulum. It was shown that in all the investigated muscles, Mg(2+)-ATPase is associated with membrane fraction which in its density corresponds to tubular membranes of T-system. Activation of this enzyme is characterized by similar optimal levels of pH (7.2) and temperature (25 degrees C). The activity of Ca(2+)-ATPase in the membranes of the sarcoplasmic reticulum, in contrast to that of Mg(2+)-ATPase, is observed in more narrow bands of pH and temperature, exhibiting tissue specificity. The data obtained, indicating a possibility of chromatographic separation of these enzymes, confirm their biochemical individuality.

2,3-Butanedione monoxime (BDM) reversibly inhibits force production in muscle. At least part of its action appears to be directly on the contractile apparatus. To understand better its mechanism of action, we studied the effect of BDM on the steps of myosin subfragment 1 Mg(2+)-ATPase in 0.1 M potassium acetate, pH 7.4. Because of the rapidity of certain processes, we experimented at 4 degrees C and our main technique was the rapid flow quench method. By varying the experimental conditions (relative concentrations of reagents, time scale, quenching agent), it was possible to study selectively the different steps of the S1 Mg(2+)-ATPase: [formula: see text] At saturation (20 mM), BDM had two major effects on the ATPase. First, it increased the equilibrium constant of the cleavage step (K3) from 2 to > 10. Second, it slowed the kinetics of the release of Pi by an order of magnitude (k4; from 0.054 to 0.004 s-1). By contrast, the kinetics of the binding of ATP (k) and the release of ADP (k6) were little affected by BDM. Thus, the oxime appears to interact specifically with M**.ADP.Pi, and it is a rare example of an uncompetitive inhibitor. Its effect is to reduce the steady-state concentration of the "strong" actin binding state M*.ADP and to increase that of the "weak" binding state, M**.ADP.Pi. The effect of BDM on the initial ATPase of Ca2+ activated myofibrils was very similar to that on S1 ATPase. Thus, with myofibrils too BDM seems to exert its main effect subsequent to the initial binding and cleavage steps.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
