The rats were irradiated in the doses 1, 5, 4, 7 and 10 Gr and on the 1, 8, 15, 22 and 30 day after the irradiation activity of Ca(2+)-ATPase and Mg(2+)-ATPase and peroxidation lipids in the thymocytes was determined. It was found that postradiation changes in activity of Mg(2+)-ATPase were characterized by a higher sensitivity to the processes of lipids peroxidation as compared to Ca(2+)-ATPase.

At least three types of vanadate-insensitive membranous ATPase were identified on rat liver lysosomes: bafilomycin A1-sensitive Mg(2+)-ATPase (H(+)-ATPase), N-ethylmaleimide (NEM)-sensitive but bafilomycin A1-insensitive Mg(2+)-ATPase (ATPase I), and NEM-insensitive Ca2+/Mg(2+)-ATPase (ATPase II). They showed different sensitivity to chemicals and ions with apparent molecular masses of 700-800, 500-650, and 360 kDa, respectively. Of these membranous ATPases, H(+)-ATPase seemed to constitute only one tenth of the ATPase activity on rat liver lysosomes and to be the only ATPase that exposed its active site to the cytoplasmic side of the lysosomal membranes.

1. A high-affinity (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase and a low-affinity Mg(2+)-ATPase were identified in the 105,000 g fraction from epimastigote forms of Trypanosoma cruzi, the agent of Chagas' disease (Tulahuen strain). 2. Activities were conserved after enzyme solubilization with deoxycholate. 3. The Ca(2+)-stimulated ATPase activity was (a) lower than that of the Mg(2+)-ATPase; (b) inhibited by p-chloromercurobenzoate and orthovanadate and (c) insensitive to oligomycin. 4. Optimal stimulation by Ca2+ was observed at pH 6.5-6.8 in the presence of 1 mM MgCl2 and 0.1 M KCl. 5. The Mg(2+)-ATPase was insensitive to p-chloromercurobenzoate and orthovanadate and did not require KCl for activity. 6. Kinetic analysis of the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase yielded a half-maximal stimulating concentration of 1.1 microM for Ca2+ and a Km of 66 microM for ATP. 7. The (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase clearly differed from the Ca(2+)- or Mg(2+)-ATPases previously characterized in the same strain of T. cruzi (Frasch et al., 1978; Comp. Biochem. Physiol. 60B, 271-275).

1. The rate of energy expended for the clearance of sarcoplasmic Ca2+ by sarcoreticular Ca2+ uptake process(es), plus the concomitant metabolic reactions, was evaluated from measurements of resting heat production by mouse soleus muscle before and after indirect inhibition of Ca2+ uptake by sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). 2. Direct inhibition of the Ca2+, Mg(2+)-ATPase of SR membrane in intact muscle preparations exposed to the specific inhibitor 2,5-di(tert-butyl-1,4-benzohydroquinone (tBuBHQ) slowly increased the rate of heat production (E). Indirect inhibition of SR Ca2+ uptake was obtained by reducing sarcoplasmic Ca2+ concentration (Ca2+i) as a consequence of reducing Ca2+ release from the SR using dantrolene sodium. This promptly decreased E by 12%. Exposure of the preparations to an Mg(2+)-enriched environment (high Mg2+) or to the chemical phosphatase 2,3-butanedione monoxime (BDM), two other procedures aimed at decreasing SR Ca2+ release, also acutely decreased E, by 20 and 24%, respectively. 3. Subthreshold-for-contracture depolarization of the sarcolemma achieved by increasing extracellular K+ concentration to 11.8 mM induced a biphasic increase of E: an initial peak to 290% of basal E, followed by a plateau phase at 140% of basal E during which resting muscle tension was increased by less than 3%. Most, if not all, of the plateau-phase metabolic response was quickly suppressed by dantrolene or high Mg2+ or BDM. Another means of increasing SR Ca2+ cycling was to partially remove the calmodulin-dependent control of SR Ca2+ release using the calmodulin inhibitor W-7. The progressive increase in E with 30 microM-W-7 was largely reduced by dantrolene or high Mg2+ or BDM. 4. In the presence of either dantrolene or BDM to prevent the effect of W-7 on SR Ca2+ release, exposure of the muscle to W-7 acutely suppressed about 3% of E. This and the above results confirm that the plasmalemmal, calmodulin-dependent Ca(2+)-ATPase, although a qualitatively essential part of the Ca2+i homeostatic system of the cell, can only be responsible for a very minor part of the energy expenditure devoted to the homeostasis of Ca2+i. Active Ca2+ uptake by SR which, at least in the submicromolar range of Ca2+i, is expected to be responsible for most of this Ca(2+)-dependent energy expenditure, might dissipate up to 25-40% of total metabolic energy in the intact mouse soleus under basal and near-basal conditions.

Myosin I, an actin-dependent force-generating enzyme, has been purified from three mammalian sources: bovine adrenal medulla, adrenal cortex, and brain. The purification procedure includes extraction of tissue with ATP at low ionic strength and coprecipitation with actin, followed by gel filtration on Sepharose 4B, anion-exchange chromatography on Q Sepharose, and affinity chromatography on ATP-agarose. Mammalian myosin I molecules are composed of a heavy chain of 116 kDa and multiple low molecular weight polypeptides identified as calmodulin. The structural and enzymatic properties of adrenal medulla myosin I were further characterized. This enzyme exhibits high K+,EDTA- and Ca(2+)-ATPase specific activities (about 0.2 mumol.min-1 per mg of protein), whereas the Mg(2+)-ATPase activity is very low (1-3 nmol.min-1.mg-1). The Mg(2+)-ATPase of medulla myosin I is activated by F-actin in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner: activity is stimulated 40-fold in the presence of EGTA and 90-fold in the presence of 10 microM Ca2+. Two structural domains of the myosin I heavy chain were identified. A 74-kDa chymotryptic fragment contains the catalytic site, while a 36-kDa polypeptide contains the calmodulin-binding sites. These results indicate that mammalian myosin I is more closely related to myosin I from the avian intestinal brush border than to the enzymes isolated from the protozoans Acanthamoeba and Dictyostelium.

We studied changes in myofibrillar function and protein profiles after complete global ischemia with anoxia in rat hearts. Hearts were exposed to global ischemia and anoxia (CGI) for 30 or 60 minutes at 37 degrees C, and myofibrils were prepared for measurement of Ca(2+)-dependent Mg(2+)-ATPase activity at pH 7.0 and 6.5. Hearts incubated in cold saline (1 +/- 1 degrees C) and nonincubated hearts served as controls. Maximum ATPase activity was unchanged at pH 7.0 and pH 6.5 in myofibrils from hearts treated with 30 or 60 minutes of CGI. At pH 7.0, the Hill coefficient, which is an index of cooperative interactions among thin-filament proteins, was unchanged after 30 minutes of CGI but was significantly increased after 60 minutes of CGI. A similar trend for increased cooperativity was observed when myofibrillar ATPase activity was measured at pH 6.5 in myofibrils from rat hearts made ischemic for 30 or 60 minutes. Both 30 and 60 minutes of CGI resulted in increased pCa50 values (half-maximally activating free [Ca2+]) at pH 7.0 and pH 6.5. Densitometric analysis of myofibrillar proteins separated with sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis indicated that troponin I and troponin T were degraded during 60 minutes of CGI. Two new protein bands appearing in ischemia-treated myofibrils were identified as partially degraded troponin I and troponin T with Western blots. The troponin I fragment could be phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase. In addition, we observed phosphorylation of a protein band that corresponded to myosin light chain-2 in myofibrils from CGI-treated hearts. These results suggest that degradation of thin-filament proteins may contribute to the changes in cooperativity of Ca2+ regulation of ATPase activity observed in the myofibrils from rat hearts exposed to CGI.

The transient kinetics of rabbit psoas Ca(2+)-activated myofibrillar Mg(2+)-ATPase were studied in a buffer of near physiological ionic strength at 4 degrees C by the rapid flow quench technique. The initial ATP binding steps were studied by the ATP chase and the cleavage and release of products steps were studied by the Pi burst method. The data obtained were interpreted by the simple scheme [formula; see text] represents the myosin heads with or without actin interaction. The constants obtained with myofibrils (where the molecules are highly organized) were compared with those with myosin subfragment 1 (S1) and cross-linked acto-S1 (where the molecules are dispersed in solution). Myofibrils appear to bind ATP as tightly as do S1 and cross-linked acto-S1. This suggests that with them k-2 less than kcat much less than k2, and it is proposed that the ATP chase method can be used to titrate the ATPase sites in myofibrils. The results of titration and single-turnover experiments revealed that myofibrils may contain partially active myosin heads. It is proposed that these heads bind ATP loosely without hydrolysis, as found with S1 [Tesi, C., N. Bachouchi, N., Barman, T., & Travers, F. (1989) Biochimie 71, 363-372]. There were large Pi bursts with the three preparations, showing that with all of them the release of products step (k4) is rate limiting.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Normal and sickle cell erythrocyte membranes were examined for significant differences in their ATPase activities, thiobarbituric acid reactive products formed (measured relative to malondialdehyde), membrane protein polymerization, and number of protein-free sulfhydryl groups when treated with 0.5 mmol/L t-butylhydroperoxide (tBHP) for 30 minutes. Isolated sickle cell membranes treated with tBHP produced significantly greater inhibition in both their basal and calmodulin-stimulated Ca2+ + Mg(2+)-ATPase activities (75% inhibition in both cases) compared with that of control membranes. In addition, there was significantly more malondialdehyde formed from sickle cell membranes compared with control membranes. Oxidation caused greater protein polymerization in sickle cell membranes compared with normal membranes as demonstrated by the formation of high molecular weight polymers separated on sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gels. The number of free sulfhydryl groups present in spectrin and actin decreased more in sickle cell membranes as measured by 3H-N-ethyl maleimide autoradiography and gel scanning. To prevent enzyme inhibition, erythrocyte membranes were treated with tBHP in the presence of 1 mmol/L ascorbate, a potential antioxidant, and 1 mmol/L desferal, an iron chelator. Both ascorbate and desferal added alone with tBHP were effective in preventing inhibition of the basal and calmodulin-stimulated Ca2+ + Mg(2+)-ATPase activities in normal membranes, but in sickle cell membranes only the addition of ascorbate and desferal together offered significant protection. The enhanced oxidation observed with sickle cell membranes can be mimicked in normal white membranes by adding hemoglobin, hemin, or ferrous chloride in the presence of tBHP. In contrast to hemoglobin, ferrous chloride has the ability to enhance membrane oxidation in the presence of ascorbate with or without tBHP. Furthermore, the addition of desferal to these membranes greatly decreased the iron-ascorbate-tBHP oxidation of erythrocyte membranes as determined by the sustained ATPase activities and the reduced formation of malondialdehyde. Maximal protection was provided by 1 mmol/L desferal in the presence of 1 mmol/L ascorbate, although some protection was observed even at 10 mumol/L, the lowest concentration tested. These results are discussed in light of the pro- and anti-oxidant effects of ascorbate in the absence and presence of iron and tBHP.

The role of the N-terminal region of myosin light chain 1 (LC1) in actomyosin interaction was investigated using an IgG monoclonal antibody (2H2) directed against the N-terminal region of LC1. We defined the binding site of 2H2 by examining its cross-reactivity with myosin light chains from a variety of species and with synthetic oligopeptides. Our findings suggest that 2H2 is directed against the N-terminal region of LC1 which includes the trimethylated alanine residue at the N-terminus. In the presence of 2H2, the rate of actomyosin superprecipitation was reduced, although the extent was not. 2H2 caused a reduction in the Vmax of both myosin and chymotryptic S1(A1) actin-activated ATPase activity, while the Km appeared to be unaltered. The Mg(2+)-ATPase activity of myosin alone was also unaffected. Binding studies revealed that 2H2 did not prevent the formation of acto-S1 complex, either in the presence or in the absence of ATP, nor did it affect the ability of ATP to dissociate S1 from F-actin. Our findings suggest that the N-terminal region of LC1 is not essential for actin binding but is involved in modulating actin-activated ATPase activity of myosin.

The vanadate-sensitive Mg(2+)-dependent ATPase activity of the human erythrocyte ghost is believed to be involved in the shape change events that convert echinocytic ghosts to smoothed forms (biconcave discs and stomatocytes). At physiological salt concentration, pH 7.4, 2 mM ATP, 5 mM Mg2+ and 1 mM EGTA, the Mg(2+)-ATPase activity of ghosts was inhibited strongly by millimolar concentrations of sodium fluoride: I50 = 1.31 +/- 0.23 mM (mean +/- S.D.; n = 12). The addition of aluminium chloride to 15 microM reduced the concentration of NaF required for 50% inhibition to 0.76 +/- 0.21 mM (n = 10). Aluminium alone had only a small inhibitory effect on the ATPase activity (13 +/- 9%; n = 10). Desferrioxamine, a strong chelator of tervalent aluminium ion, failed to reverse the inhibition by fluoride and reversed the inhibition in the presence of aluminium and fluoride back to those values obtained with fluoride alone. Of several metal salts tested only beryllium sulfate was able to replace aluminium as an effective inhibitor in the presence of fluoride. Inhibition of the Mg(2+)-ATPase activity by fluoride and the aluminofluoride complexes correlated with an inhibition of the rate of MgATP-dependent change in red cell ghost shape from echinocytes to smoothed forms. All gross morphological changes of the smoothing process were affected, including the production of discocytes, stomatocytes and endocyctic vesicles.
