We have previously shown that the rat Na(+)-K(+)-
ATPase
alpha 1-isoform is phosphorylated at Ser-943 by protein kinase A (PKA) and at Ser-23 by protein kinase C (PKC), which in both cases results in inhibition of enzyme activity. We now present evidence that suggests that the phosphorylation of Ser-943 by PKA modulates the response of Na(+)-K(+)-
ATPase
to PKC. Rat Na(+)-K(+)-
ATPase
alpha 1 or a mutant in which Ser-943 was changed to Ala-943 was stably expressed in
COS
cells. The inhibition of enzyme activity measured in response to treatment with the phorbol ester, phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu; 10(-6) M), was significantly reduced in the cells expressing the Ala-943 mutant compared with that observed in cells expressing wild-type enzyme. In contrast, for cells expressing Na(+)-K(+)-
ATPase
alpha 1 in which Ser-943 was mutated to Asp-943, the effect of PDBu was slightly enhanced. The PDBu-induced inhibition was not mediated by activation of the adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate/PKA system and was not achieved via direct phosphorylation of Ser-943. Sp-5,6-DCI-cBIMPS, a specific PKA activator, increased the phosphorylation of Ser-943, and this was associated with an enhanced response to PDBu. Thus the effect of PKC on rat Na(+)-K(+)-
ATPase
alpha 1 is determined not only by the activity of PKC but also by the state of phosphorylation of Ser-943.

A complementary DNA for the Tobacco Budworm, Heliothis virescens, sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum-type Ca(2+)-
ATPase
(HVSERCA) has been cloned and sequenced. cDNA fragments of adult rabbit fast-twitch muscle Ca(2+)-
ATPase
(SERCA1a) were used as heterologous probes to isolate a partial cDNA clone coding for a protein with high homology to the Ca(2+)-
ATPase
from Drosophila melanogaster (DRSERCA) and vertebrate ER/SR Ca2+ pumps. The entire cDNA clone contains an ORF encoding a protein of 1000 amino acids which shares the characteristic motifs of a P-type
ATPase
. HVSERCA shares 89% identity with DRSERCA, 80% identity with the Artemia Ca(2+)-
ATPase
and 72% identity with avian and mammalian SERCAs. An insect Ca(2+)-
ATPase
-specific polyclonal antiserum has been raised against a fusion protein containing sequence from the cytoplasmic domain of HVSERCA. Heterologous expression of the insect pump in
COS
-7 cells has been demonstrated by immunocytochemistry and the reticular pattern of staining is consistent with an ER localisation. However, the expressed enzyme from
COS
-7 cells does not appear to be active.

A full-length E(ecto)-
ATPase
(Plesner, L. (1995) Int. Rev. Cytol. 158, 141-214) cDNA was cloned from a human brain cDNA library; it encodes a 610-amino acid protein that contains two putative transmembrane domains. Heterologous expression of this protein in
COS
-7 cells caused a significant increase in intracellular membrane-bound nucleoside phosphatase activity. The activity was highest with UDP as substrate and was stimulated by divalent cations in the following order: Ca2+ >> Mg2+ > Mn2+. The results of immunofluorescence staining indicate that this protein is located in the Golgi apparatus. UDP hydrolysis was increased in the presence of Triton X-100 or alamethicin, an ionophore that facilitates movement of UDP across the membrane, suggesting that the active site of this UDPase is on the luminal side of the Golgi apparatus. This is the first identification of a mammalian Golgi luminal UDPase gene. Computer-aided sequence analysis of the EATPase superfamily indicates that the human UDPase is highly similar to two hypothetical proteins of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans and to an unidentified 71.9-kDa yeast protein and is less related to the previously identified yeast Golgi GDPase.

Excessive platelet accumulation and recruitment, leading to vessel occlusion at sites of vascular injury, present major therapeutic challenges in cardiovascular medicine. Endothelial cell CD39, an ecto-enzyme with ADPase and
ATPase
activities, rapidly metabolizes ATP and ADP released from activated platelets, thereby abolishing recruitment. Therefore, a soluble form of CD39, retaining nucleotidase activities, would constitute a novel antithrombotic agent. We designed a recombinant, soluble form of human CD39, and isolated it from conditioned media from transiently transfected
COS
-1 cells and from stably transfected Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. Conditioned medium from CHO cells grown under serum-free conditions was subjected to anti-CD39 immunoaffinity column chromatography, yielding a single approximately 66-kD protein with
ATPase
and ADPase activities. Purified soluble CD39 blocked ADP-induced platelet aggregation in vitro, and inhibited collagen-induced platelet reactivity. Kinetic analyses indicated that, while soluble CD39 had a Km for ADP of 5.9 microM and for ATP of 2.1 microM, the specificity constant kcat/Km was the same for both substrates. Intravenously administered soluble CD39 remained active in mice for an extended period of time, with an elimination phase half-life of almost 2 d. The data indicate that soluble CD39 is a potential therapeutic agent for inhibition of platelet-mediated thrombotic diatheses.

COS
-7 cells expressing 1,360 residues from the amino terminus of porcine submaxillary mucin were used to determine whether this region, containing the D1, D2, and D3 domains, is involved in forming mucin multimers. Analysis of the proteins immunoprecipitated from the medium of transfected cells by reducing SDS-gel electrophoresis showed a single N-glycosylated protein with no indication of proteolytically processed forms. Without prior reduction, only two proteins, corresponding to monomeric and disulfide-linked trimeric species, were observed. The expressed protein devoid of N-linked oligosaccharides also formed trimers, but was secreted from cells in significantly less amounts than glycosylated trimers. Pulse-chase studies showed that the disulfide-linked trimers were assembled inside the cells no earlier than 30 min after protein synthesis commenced and after the intracellular precursors were N-glycosylated. Trimer formation was inhibited in cells treated with brefeldin A, monensin, chloroquine, or bafilomycin A1, although only brefeldin A prevented the secretion of the protein. These results suggest that trimerization takes place in compartments of the Golgi complex in which the vacuolar H+-
ATPase
maintains an acidic pH. Coexpression in the same cells of the amino-terminal region and the disulfide-rich carboxyl-terminal domain of the mucin showed that these structures were not disulfide-linked with one another. Cells expressing a DNA construct encoding a fusion protein between the amino- and carboxyl-terminal regions of the mucin secreted disulfide-linked dimeric and high molecular weight multimeric species of the recombinant mucin. The presence of monensin in the medium was without effect on dimerization, but inhibited the formation of disulfide-linked multimers. These studies suggest that disulfide-linked dimers of mucin are subsequently assembled into disulfide-linked multimers by the amino-terminal regions. They also suggest that the porcine mucin forms branched disulfide-linked multimers. This ability of the amino-terminal region of mucin to aid in the assembly of multimers is consistent with its amino acid identities to the amino-terminal region of human von Willebrand factor, which also serves to form disulfide-linked multimers of this protein.

An extracellular
ATPase
(E-type ATPase) clone was isolated from a human brain cDNA library and sequenced. The transcript shows similarity to the previously published chicken smooth muscle and rat brain ecto-ATPase cDNAs, human CD39L1 cDNA (putative human ecto-ATPase), and mammalian CD39 (lymphoid cell activation antigen, ecto-apyrase, ATPDase, ATP-diphosphohydrolase) cDNAs. The full-length human brain cDNA encodes a 529 amino acid glycoprotein with a putative membrane spanning region near each terminus, with the majority of the protein found extracellularly. Expression of this clone in mammalian
COS
-1 cells yielded NaN3-sensitive
ATPase
and ADPase activity detectable both on intact cells and cell membrane preparations. The nucleotide hydrolysis ratio of the expressed protein is approx. 2.75:1 (
ATPase
:ADPase activity), classifying it as an ecto-apyrase. However, this hydrolysis ratio is intermediate between that observed for the ecto-ATPases and the CD39 ecto-apyrases (L. Plesner, Int. Rev. Cytol. 158 (1995) 141-214). Quantitative analyses of amino acid identities and similarities between this ecto-apyrase and other vertebrate E-type ATPases suggest that this human brain enzyme is nearly equally related to the ecto-ATPases and the CD39s, and phylogenetic analysis suggests that it could be an ancestral enzyme from which both ecto-ATPases and CD39 ecto-apyrases are derived.

The pH and trafficking of recycling endosomes have previously been studied using transferrin. We have used another approach, one in which the vesicle transport protein cellubrevin was appended with a luminal IgG epitope to allow targeting of fluorescein-5'-isothiocyanate (FITC)-labeled anti-IgG F(ab) antibodies to the recycling endosomes in living cells. FITC-F(ab) was specifically internalized by
COS
cells transfected with cellubrevin-Ig, which at steady state accumulated in a pericentriolar region similar to rhodamine-transferrin. Confocal microscopic analysis showed that endosome labeling by these two markers was heterogeneous. This differential distribution was not induced by the IgG tag, since endogenous Cb and Tf were also partitioned into separate endosomal populations. We used fluorescence ratio imaging of internalized FITC-F(ab) to measure the pH of cellubrevin-enriched recycling endosomes (pHCb) and FITC-transferrin to measure the pH of transferrin-enriched recycling endosomes (pHTf). In
COS
cells, cellubrevin endosomes (mean pHCb 6.1 +/- 0.05; range, 5.2-6.6) were more acidic than transferrin endosomes (mean pHTf 6.5 +/- 0.05; range, 5.6-7.2). Similar results were obtained in Chinese hamster ovary cells. Treatment with the vacuolar H+-
ATPase
inhibitor bafilomycin A1 caused pHTf to increase (DeltapHTf = 1.2 pH units) to a greater extent than pHCb (DeltapHCb = 0.5 pH units). Furthermore, inhibition of the Na+/K+-
ATPase
by ouabain or acetylstrophanthidin caused pHTf to decrease by 0.6 pH units but had no effect on pHCb. Based on the combination of these morphological and functional data, we suggest that the recycling endosomes are heterogeneous in their biochemical compositions, ion transport properties, and pH values.

Ankyrins are a family of adapter molecules that mediate linkages between integral membrane and cytoskeletal proteins. Such interactions are crucial to the polarized distribution of membrane proteins in transporting epithelia. We have cloned and characterized a novel 190-kDa member of this family from a rat kidney cDNA library, which we term AnkG190 based on the predicted size and homology with the larger neuronal AnkG isoform. AnkG190 displays a unique 31-residue amino terminus, a repeats domain consisting of 24 repetitive 33-residue motifs, a spectrin binding domain, and a truncated regulatory domain. Probes derived from the unique amino terminus hybridize to an 8-kilobase message exclusively in kidney and lung and specifically to the kidney outer medullary collecting ducts by in situ hybridization. Transfections of Madin-Darby canine kidney and
COS
-7 epithelial cell lines with a full-length AnkG190 construct result in (a) expression at the lateral plasma membrane, (b) functional assembly with the cytoskeleton, and (c) interaction with at least one membrane protein, the Na,K-
ATPase
. Two independent Na,K-
ATPase
binding domains on AnkG190 are demonstrated as follows: one within the distal 12 ankyrin repeats, and a second site within the spectrin binding domain. Thus, ankyrins may interact with integral membrane proteins in a pleiotropic manner that may involve complex tertiary structural determinants.

Activation by protein kinase A by forskolin phosphorylates and inactivates Na+,K(+)-
ATPase
in
COS
-7 cells (Cheng et al. 1997b). In this study we show, using [3H]ouabain binding, that forskolin-induced inhibition of Na+,K(+)-
ATPase
activity is not because of internalization of the enzyme. The effect of forskolin on Na+,K(+)-
ATPase
activity was examined by two independent methods, ouabain-sensitive 86Rb+ uptake in intact cells and ATP hydrolysis in microsomal preparations from cells. The change in number of functional pumps on cell surface before and after protein kinase A activation was assessed by [3H]ouabain binding measured under equilibrium conditions. Cells, which had been ATP-depleted by antimycin A and 2-deoxyglucose treatment, served as a positive control for the internalization of Na+,K(+)-
ATPase
. Activation of protein kinase A with forskolin in combination with the phosphodiesterase inhibitor 3-isobutyl-1-methyl xanthine, inhibited Na+,K(+)-
ATPase
activity, but this treatment had no effect on specific ouabain binding. No change in ouabain binding was found following activation of protein kinase C by phorbol ester or diacyl glycerol analogue treatment in cells. These data suggest that protein kinase A phosphorylation and inhibition of Na+,K(+)-
ATPase
activity does not lead to any internalization of the enzyme in
COS
-7 cells.

The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is a member of the traffic
ATPase
family that includes multiple proteins characterized by (1) ATP binding, (2) conserved transmembrane (TM) motifs and nucleotide binding domains (NBDs), and (3) molecular transport of small molecules across the cell membrane. While CFTR NBD-1 mediates ATP binding and hydrolysis, the membrane topology and function of this domain in living eukaryotic cells remains uncertain. In these studies, we have expressed wild-type CFTR NBD-1 (amino acids 433-586) or NBD-1 containing the DeltaF508 mutation transiently in
COS
-7 cells and established that the domain is situated across the plasma membrane by four independent assays; namely, extracellular chymotrypsin digestion, surface protein biotinylation, confocal immunofluorescent microscopy, and functional measurements of cell membrane anion permeability. Functional studies indicate that basal halide permeability is enhanced above control conditions following wild-type or DeltaF508 NBD-1 expression in three different epithelial cell lines. Furthermore, when clinically relevant CFTR proteins truncated within NBD-1 (R553X or G542X) are expressed, surface localization and enhanced halide permeability are again established. Together, these findings suggest that isolated CFTR NBD-1 (with or without the DeltaF508 mutation) is capable of targeting the epithelial cell membrane and enhancing cellular halide permeability. Furthermore, CFTR truncated at position 553 or 542 and possessing the majority of NBD-1 demonstrates surface localization and also confers increased halide permeability. These findings indicate that targeting to the plasma membrane and assumption of a transmembrane configuration are innate properties of the CFTR NBD-1. The results also support the notion that components of the halide-selective pore of CFTR reside within NBD-1.
