This paper presents some evidence that the osmotic shock-sensitive, energy-dependent transfer of vitamin B12 from outer membrane receptor sites into the interior of cells of Escherichia coli requires an energized inner membrane, without obligatory intermediation of adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP). The experiments measured the effects of glucose, D-lactate, anaerobiosis, arsenate, cyanide, and 2,4-dinitrophenol upon the rates of B12 transport by starved cells of E. coli KBT001, which possesses a functional Ca2+, Mg2+-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase (Ca,MgATPase), and of E. coli AN120, which lacks this enzyme. Both strains were able to utilize glucose and D-lactate aerobically to potentiate B12 transport, indicating that the Ca,MgATPase was not essential for this process. When respiratory electron transport was blocked, either by cyanide or by anaerobic conditions, and the primary source of energy for the cells was presumably ATP from glucose fermentation, the rate of B12 transport was much reduced in E. coli AN120 but not in E.coli KBT001. These results support the view that the CaMgATPase can play a role in B12 transport but only when the energy for this process must be derived from ATP. The results of experiments with arsenate also supported the conclusion that the generation of phosphate bond energy was not absolutely required for B12 transport.

A method for isolation of a soluble ATPase from rat liver mitochondria after freeze thaw cycling is described. Two enzymatically active fractions were separated by DEAE-cellulose chromatography (ATPase 1 and ATPase 2). ATPase 1 has been purified 300 fold. ATPase 1 was homogenous as judged by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The optimum pH of the enzyme was 5.8-6.0 and the optimum temperature was 45 degrees C. The enzyme follows Michaelis-Menten kinetics: Km (9 X 10(-4) M), Vmax (23,6 mumoles Pi released X min -1 X mg protein -1). The enzyme hydrolysed nucleoside triphosphates, but was inactive upon nucleoside di and monophosphates, glucose 6-phosphate, phosphoserine, pyrophosphate and glycerol 2-phosphate. In contrast to membrane bound ATPase, cations have no effect on the enzyme activity. Nucleoside di and mono phosphates and glycerol 2 phosphate inhibited competitively the enzyme. The enzyme was not affected by oligomycin, but was stimulated by lactate, 2-mercaptoethanol and dithiothreitol.

Administration of 60,000 i.e. of vitamin A into rats within three weeks caused an increase in amount of reticulocytes, in the rate of glucose utilization and in formation of lactic acid by erythrocytes. The activity of glycolytic enzymes was intensified. The activity of hexokinase was increased by 84.6%, activities of aldolase and phosphohexoisomerase were increased by 34%. But in the erythrocytes content of AMP, ADP and ATP was unaltered, probably due to activation of total and Na+, K+-dependent ATPase. The harmful effect of an excess of the vitamin A was manifested in an increased content of Na+ in erythrocytes and also in decreased stability of the cells to acid hemolytics.

Juvenile rats fed a diet containing 1% lead acetate for 7 weeks, in addition to an impaired growth rate and renal function derangements, suffered malabsorption of glucose and certain amino acids, as assessed by an in vivo perfusion technique. The reduction in glucose absorption ranged between 10% and 31% when the carbohydrate was pumped in concentrations of 2-80 mM. This alteration was compatible with a noncompetitive type of transport inhibition. The intestinal absorption of glycine, lysine, and phenylalanine were, respectively, decreased 22, 18, and 15% when these amino acids were present at 1 mM levels. Sodium transport was severely reduced (57.6 +/- 17.9 (SEM) vs. 124.2 +/- 17.4 muEq/min-cm) and intestinal mucosa (Na+-K+)-ATPase was concomitantly lower in the lead-intoxicated rats (186.4 +/- 19.0 vs 268.4 +/- 29.8 nmol P/min-mg protein). However, this enzyme was not altered in liver and kidney. Furthermore, intestinal mucosa fructose-1,6-diphosphatase, succinic dehydrogenase, pyruvate kinase, and tryptophan hydroxylase were not different in experimental and control animals. These studies substantiate the presence of functional and biochemical abnormalities in the intestinal mucosa of young rats when fed substantial amounts of a soluble lead salt. It is, therefore, reasonable to accept the possibility that physiologic damage occurs in tissues directly subjected to high and persistent levels of a toxic agents, as it occurs in other organs, underscoring the parallelism between transport mechanisms at the renal and intestinal levels.

1. Changes in activity of ATPase (adenosine triphosphatase) during the cell cycle of Schizosaccharomyces pombe were analysed in cell-free extracts of cells harvested from different stages of growth of synchronous cultures and also after cell-cycle fractionation. 2. Oligomycin-sensitive ATPase oscillates in both glucose-repressed synchronous cultures and shows four maxima of activity approximately equally spaced through the cell cycle. The amplitude of the oscillations accounts for between 13 and 80% of the total activity at different times in the cell cycle. 3. Oligomycin sensitivity varies over a fourfold range at different stages of the cell cycle. 4. The periodicity of maximum oligomycin sensitivity is one-quarter of a cell cycle. 5. These results were confirmed for the first three-quarters of the cell cycle by cell-cycle fractionation. 6. In cells growing synchronously with glycerol, ATPase activity increases in a stepwise pattern, with two steps per cell cycle; the first of these occurs at 0.54 of the cell cycle and the second at 0.95. 7. These results are discussed in relation to previously obtained data on the development of mitochondrial activities during the cell cycle.

The effect of the hallucinogenic drug harmaline was tested on rat kidney proximal tubular solute and water transport, using in vivo micropuncture and electrophysiological techniques as well as in vitro biochemical techniques. During peritubular application harmaline (5 mmol/l) was found to block net tubular volume absorption reversibly (by 85%) through inhibition of active Na+ transport and possibly active HCO-3 transport. The inhibition was accompanied by a rapid strong depolarization of the tubular cell membranes. As a biochemical equivalent harmaline inhibited the Na+-K+-ATPase and the Mg2+-ATPase of peritubular cell membrane fractions as well as the HCO-3-stimulated ATPase of a brush border membrane fraction with similar kinetics. By studying glucose tracer efflux and by measuring cell membrane potential and conductance changes in response to glucose perfusions, no evidence for a direct effect of harmaline on Na+-glucose (or amino acid) cotransport mechanisms in the brush border could be obtained. The data suggest that harmaline does not specifically compete with Na+ for transport sites. Neither are the cotransport systems in the brush border membrane specifically inhibited, nor could the inhibition of the Na+ pump in the peritubular cell membrane simply result from a competition between harmaline and Na+.

Experiments were performed to investigate whether the inhibitory effect of ethanol on intestinal glucose transport is related to its action on the brush border or on the ATPase-dependent sodium pump of the basolateral membrane of the enterocyte. We compared the effect of ethanol on glucose and water transport when it was added either to the mucosal or to the serosal solution of an in vitro preparation of hamster jejunum. The purpose of the addition of ethanol to the serosal solution was to mimic a situation similar to that produced when ouabain is placed on the serosal side to inhibit the ATPase-dependent sodium pump at the basolateral membrane. The presence of 450 mM ethanol (2.07%) in the mucosal solution depressed glucose and water transport by 40 and 63%, respectively, but the presence of the same concentration of ethanol on the serosal side had no effect on glucose and water absorption. These findings seem to indicate that the depressing effect of ethanol on intestinal glucose and water transport cannot be ascribed to the inhibition of the Na+, K+-sensitive ATPase-dependent sodium pump located at the basolateral membrane.

A plasmid was isolated which included the region of the Escherichia coli chromosome carrying the known genes concerned with oxidative phosphorylation (unc genes). This plasmid was used to prepare partial diploids carrying normal unc alleles on the episome and one of the three mutant alleles (unc A401, uncB402 or unc-405) on the chromosome. These strains were compared with segregants from which the plasmid had been lost. Dominance of either normal ormutant unc alleles was determined by growth on succinate, growth yields on glucose, Mg-ATPase (Mg2+-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase) activity, atebrin-fluorescence quenching, ATP-dependent transhydrogenase activity and oxidative phosphorylation. In all the above tests, dominance of the normal allele was observed. However, in membranes from the diploid strains which carried a normal allele and either of the mutant alleles affecting Mg-ATPase activity (uncA401 or unc-405), the energy-linked functions were only partially restored.

Shifts in the distribution of the monovalent cations Na+ and K+ between the extra- and intracellular space seem to be important for the secretory response of the beta-cell. An attempt was therefore made to study the enzyme responsible for monovalent cation transport, the (NaK)-activated ATPase. In the presence of NaN3 as inhibitor of the mitochondrial Mg-ATPase, a NaK-ATPase with a specific activity of 72 mU X mg protein-1 could be demonstrated in crude membrane preparations of rat pancreatic islets. The enzyme, which was inactive in the absence of Mg++, needed both Na+ and K+ for activation and was inhibited by ouabain and PCMB. The main part of the NaK-ATPase was localized in the microsomal fraction. Glucose, sulphonylureas, somatostatin and diazoxide were without effect on NaK-ATPase.

An adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) mutant of Bacillus megaterium was isolated and characterized. This mutant (designated A37) was unable to grow on nonfermentable carbon sources and possessed less than 5% of the wild-type ATPase activity. Oxygen uptake by the mutant was comparable to that in the wild type. Sporulation in the wild type occurred in both glucose- and nitrogen-limiting media; however, A37 sporulated only in the nitrogen-limiting medium. The inability of A37 to sporulate in glucose-limiting medium seemed to be due to insufficient adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) levels during the sporulation stages. Fructose, which can generate ATP via substrate-level phosphorylation, is equally efficient in stimulating ATP synthesis in the wild type and A37. Malate-stimulated ATP synthesis in the wild type was shown to have many characteristics associated with oxidative phosphorylation and was absent in the mutant. These data suggest that the ATPase deficiency results in the loss of oxidative phosphorylation.
