Nine residues (Leu321, Lys329, Asn330, Val333, Arg334, Leu336, Pro337, Val339 and Glu340), within the peptide segment intervening between the catalytic domain and the Ca2+ binding domain of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SERCA 1) ATPase, were individually mutated to Ala. The mutated proteins were recovered in the microsomal fraction of COS-1 cells following transient expression, and exhibited inhibition of Ca2+ uptake and ATPase hydrolytic activity, while forming discernable levels of phosphorylated intermediate. Mutation of Glu340 to Gln (rather than to Ala) was much less effective, suggesting that the functional consequence of the mutation is related to structural perturbation, rather than loss of the acidic side chain. The high sensitivity of this peptide segment to single mutations suggests that its structural integrity is required for functional linkage of the phosphorylation and Ca2+ binding domains.

Deletion mutants of the Ca2+ ATPase of rabbit fast-twitch skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum (SERCA1a) were constructed and expressed in COS-1 cells. The mutants were expressed at levels 7- to 15-fold lower than the wild-type and were inactive. In vitro transcription-translation-insertion experiments showed that deletion of transmembrane sequences M1 and M2, but not of M8, M9, M10 or the NH2-terminal 30 amino acids inhibited the stable insertion of the enzyme into the membrane. Thus there was no correlation between loss of function and membrane insertion. A signal sequence for membrane insertion may exist in M1 and M2.

Chimeric molecules consisting of parts from the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase and the Na+,K(+)-ATPase were expressed in COS-1 cells and analysed functionally. One chimera, in which most of the central cytoplasmic loop was derived from the Na+,K(+)-ATPase, while the transmembrane segments and the minor cytoplasmic loop came from the Ca(2+)-ATPase, was able to occlude Ca2+ and to be phosphorylated from ATP with normal apparent affinity for Ca2+ and ATP. This chimera also displayed normal sensitivity to thapsigargin, but was unable to undergo the transition from ADP-sensitive to ADP-insensitive phosphoenzyme and to transport Ca2+. The other chimera, which consisted of the NH2-terminal two-thirds of Na+,K(+)-ATPase and the COOH-terminal one-third of Ca(2+)-ATPase, was unable to phosphorylate from ATP, but phosphorylated from inorganic phosphate in a Ca(2+)-inhibitable and thapsigargin-insensitive reaction. These results can be explained in terms of a structural model in which the non-conserved residues in the central cytoplasmic domain of the Ca(2+)-ATPase are without major importance for the binding and occlusion of Ca2+, but are involved in the E1P-->E2P conformational changes of the phosphoenzyme, whereas residues in transmembrane segments on both sides of the central cytoplasmic domain are involved in formation of the Ca(2+)-binding sites. The data moreover show that thapsigargin sensitivity is dependent on residues in the NH2-terminal one-third of the Ca(2+)-ATPase molecule.

We have shown that bile acid efflux and ecto-ATPase activities are two distinct properties of a single rat liver hepatocyte canalicular membrane protein (Sippel, C. J., Suchy, F. J., Ananthanarayanan, M., and Perlmutter, D. H. (1993) J. Biol. Chem. 268, 2083-2091). Bile acid efflux in COS cells transfected with this rat hepatocyte canalicular bile acid transport/ectoATPase cDNA is stimulated by ATP and inhibited by nonhydrolyzable ATP analogs. In this study, we depleted transfected COS cells of ATP to examine whether bile acid efflux mediated by this transporter was dependent on ATP or just stimulated by ATP. We also used mutagenesis of an ATPase consensus sequence in the ectoplasmic domain to examine the relationship of ATPase activity to bile acid efflux mediated by the same polypeptide. The results indicate that bile acid transport is abrogated by ATP depletion and reconstituted by exogenous ATP in a concentration-dependent and saturable manner. Introduction of mutations at amino acids Gly97 and Arg98 in the ATPase consensus sequence abrogated ATPase activity but did not affect synthesis or cell surface delivery of the transporter and did not affect its bile acid transport activity. Taken together, the data indicate that bile acid efflux mediated by the rat hepatocyte canalicular bile acid transport/ecto-ATPase protein is dependent on ATP but not on its own ATPase activity. The data, therefore, imply that 1) ATP affects its bile acid transport activity through an entirely distinct mechanism; and 2) if there is any functional relationship between the ecto-ATPase and bile acid transport properties, it is mediated indirectly through regulation of net ATP concentrations in the canalicular space by the ecto-ATPase.

Transfection of primate cells with a 6.4-kilobase murine genomic DNA fragment (called ouabain resistance gene or MOR6.5) has been shown previously to confer ouabain resistance (Levenson, R., Racaniello, V., Albritton, L., and Housman, D. (1984) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 81, 1489-1493). The mechanism by which this sequence can transfer ouabain resistance remains unclear. In order to further investigate this mechanism, we determined the full-length nucleotide sequence of MOR6.5. Other than mouse repetitive domains, this DNA does not have significant homology with any coding sequence in GenBank. Although potential open reading frames and polyadenylation signals were found, we were unable to detect an MOR6.5 transcript in CV-1 or COS-1 cells transfected with this DNA, either at early or late times following transfection. We show that in early passages of MOR6.5 transfectants which were under ouabain-selective pressure and still contained MOR6.5 DNA sequence, mRNAs for both alpha 1- and beta 1-subunits of the Na,K-ATPase were amplified approximately 10-fold, compared to parental CV-1 cells. These results suggest that MOR6.5 may rescue the cells from ouabain toxicity by inducing transient up-regulation of the messages for the Na,K-ATPase. This might prolong cell survival on ouabain until mutations in the alpha 1-subunit occur, which permanently reduce ouabain inhibition of the pump (Cantley, L. G., Zhou, X.-M., Cunha, M., Epstein, J., and Cantley, L. C. (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 267, 17271-17278). Possible mechanisms for the up-regulation of transcription based on sequence similarities found between MOR6.5 and the 5'-flanking regions of alpha 1- and beta 1-subunit genes are discussed.

The ion-transporting H,K-ATPase and Na,K-ATPase enzymes are each composed of an alpha and a beta subunit. It is known that assembly of the alpha and beta subunits of the Na,K-ATPase is necessary for the cell-surface delivery of the active enzyme. We have examined the molecular domains involved in the assembly of the H,K-ATPase and Na,K-ATPase alpha and beta subunits by expressing individual subunits and subunit chimeras in transiently transfected COS-1 cells. Our results demonstrate that the H,K-ATPase alpha subunit requires its beta subunit for efficient cell-surface expression, as determined by indirect immunofluorescence. The H,K-ATPase beta protein appears to be able to get to the cell surface unaccompanied by any alpha subunit and appears to localize as well to a population of intracellular vesicles. We find that a transfected chimera encoding the NH2-terminal half of the H,K-ATPase alpha subunit and the COOH-terminal half of the Na,K-ATPase alpha subunit appears to assemble with the endogenous Na,K-ATPase beta subunit and to reach the plasmalemma. Transfection of the complementary alpha chimera requires coexpression with the H,K-ATPase beta subunit in order to attain surface delivery. Thus, it is the COOH-terminal half of the alpha subunit that specifies assembly with a particular beta subunit.

A approximately 110-kDa glycoprotein purified from canalicular vesicles by bile acid affinity chromatography has been identified as the canalicular bile acid transport protein. Internal amino acid sequence and chemical and immunochemical characteristics of this protein were found to be identical to a rat liver canalicular ecto-ATPase. In order to definitively determine whether these were two activities of a single polypeptide, we examined the possibility that transfection of cDNA for the ecto-ATPase would confer bile acid transport characteristics, as well as ecto-ATPase activity, on heterologous cells. The results show that transfection of the ecto-ATPase cDNA conferred on COS cells de novo synthesis of a approximately 110-kDa polypeptide, as immunoprecipitated by antibody to the purified canalicular bile acid transport protein and conferred on COS cells the capacity to pump out [3H]taurocholate with efflux characteristics comparable with those previously determined in canalicular membrane vesicles (Km = 100 microM; Vmax = 200 pmol/mg of protein/20 s). A truncated ecto-ATPase cDNA, missing the cytoplasmic tail, was targeted correctly to the cell surface but did not confer bile acid transport activity on COS cells. The results of this study also show that the canalicular ecto-ATPase/bile acid transport protein is phosphorylated on its cytoplasmic tail and that its phosphorylation is stimulated by activation of protein kinase C and inhibited by inhibitors of protein kinase C activation. Moreover, inhibition of protein kinase C activation by staurosporine completely abrogates bile acid transport but does not affect ATPase activity. This study, therefore, demonstrates that the rat liver canalicular ecto-ATPase is also a bile acid transport protein, that the capacity to pump out bile acid can be conferred on a heterologous cell by DNA-mediated gene transfer, and that phosphorylation within the cytoplasmic tail of the transporter is essential for bile acid efflux activity but not for ATPase activity.

When the SERCA 2 isoform of the Ca(2+)-ATPase of cardiac and slow-twitch muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum was coexpressed with phospholamban in COS-1 cells, a reduction in Ca2+ affinity (measured as Ca2+ dependence of Ca2+ transport) of 0.2-0.3 pCa units was observed. This inhibitory effect was reversed by phosphorylation of phospholamban with cAMP-dependent protein kinase A. SERCA 1 and SERCA 3, were also expressed in COS-1 cells, alone and together with phospholamban. SERCA 1 had high Ca2+ affinity which was reduced upon coexpression with phospholamban, but SERCA 3 had lower Ca2+ affinity, which was unaltered by coexpression with phospholamban. To identify which regions of the Ca2+ ATPase sequence determine its functional interaction with phospholamban, chimeric Ca(2+)-ATPases between SERCA 2 and SERCA 3 were constructed and coexpressed with phospholamban. Measurement of Ca2+ affinities for a series of chimeras showed that two separate regions of the cytoplasmic domain of SERCA 2 were required for manifestation of a functional interaction between phospholamban and the Ca(2+)-ATPase. The first is a region between amino acids 336 and 412 in the phosphorylation domain, which corresponds to a phospholamban interaction site identified earlier (James, P., Inui, M., Tada, M., Chiesi, M., and Carafoli, E. (1989) Nature 342, 90-92). The second region is the nucleotide binding/hinge domain (amino acids 467-762) which determines high Ca2+ affinity for SERCA type pumps (Toyofuku, T., Kurzydlowski, K., Lytton, J., and MacLennan, D. H. (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 267, 14490-14496).

In order to initiate studies on the structural and functional relationships of the myosin heavy chain, we constructed a full-length complementary DNA encoding the isoform that is found in the fast white muscle of the embryonic chicken. The complementary DNA contained 108 basepairs of its 3'-untranslated region and was preceded by a leader sequence derived from the alfalfa mosaic virus. Similarly, a complementary DNA encoding 963 amino acids which encompass the subfragment-1 of myosin and part of the subfragment-2 was also constructed. Each was inserted into the expression vector pMT2 and transiently transfected into COS-1 cells. Both constructs directed the expression of the respective proteins, each of which was immunogenic. The full-length and subfragment-1 proteins interacted with actin and demonstrated high levels of a K(+)-activated, EDTA-resistant ATPase activity, which is characteristic of myosin.

The NS-1 gene of the parvovirus minute virus of mice encodes a multifunctional protein essential for viral DNA replication and gene expression. In addition to possessing DNA helicase and ATPase activities, NS-1 forms a covalent linkage with the 5' ends of viral DNA and is a strong candidate for the site-specific nicking-closing enzyme postulated to be involved in the resolution of concatemers and terminal hairpin structures that arise during parvoviral DNA replication. Since the covalent linkage between NS-1 and the 5' terminus of MVM DNA resists alkali and mild acid treatment, a tyrosine phosphodiester is likely to be involved. To map domains responsible for this activity, mutations converting tyrosine to phenylalanine were introduced into the NS-1 gene using oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis and their effect on the DNA replication and transcriptional activation functions of NS-1 was examined in transient in vivo transfection assays. Replacement of Tyr-188, Tyr-197, Tyr-210, Tyr-310, Tyr-422, or Tyr-550 with phenylalanine greatly reduced the ability of NS-1 to complement the replication of the target genome ins 20B in COS-7 cells. However, a Ser-545 to Thr-545 substitution in the Phe-550 mutant restored DNA replication activity. Replacement of 5 other tyrosines in NS-1 with phenylalanine either enhanced (Phe-6), had a moderate inhibitory effect (Phe-209) or had no effect (Phe-47, Phe 227 and Phe-543) on its DNA replication activity. Two of the 11 phenylalanine substitution mutations, Phe-188 and Phe-197, also greatly reduced the ability of NS-1 to transactivate the p38 promoter and displayed a dominant negative phenotype with respect to transactivation. Since the remaining tyrosines in MVM NS-1, Tyr-152, Tyr-252, Tyr-374, and Tyr-595, are not conserved among the NS-1 proteins encoded by porcine and feline parvoviruses, they are presumed to be nonessential for the normal functioning of NS-1. The results point to a role for either Tyr-188, Tyr-197, Tyr-210, Tyr-310, or Tyr-422 in forming a covalent linkage with viral DNA and further suggest a regulatory role for several tyrosines in other DNA replication and transcriptional activation functions of NS-1.
