The phototoxic effects of demethylchlortetracycline (DMCT) with UVA radiation on isolated rat liver mitochondria were studied. DMCT at concentration of 21.5 microM with 5.53 x 10(-2) J cm-3 of UVA was found to be a potent uncoupler of oxidative phosphorylation. DMCT alone also uncoupled mitochondria but at higher concentrations (105 microM). ATPase activity was remarkably induced in mitochondria exposed to DMCT (21.5 microM) plus UVA (120% of DNP-stimulated ATPase activity). Content of ATP in such mitochondria when measured after addition of ADP was much smaller than that in control mitochondria. Ultrastructurally, mitochondria treated either with DMCT (21.5 microM) or with UVA alone stayed in the condensed configuration. On the other hand, uncoupled mitochondria treated with DMCT plus UVA became swollen and were changed into the orthodox configuration.

The role of structural and functional factors in the processes of the bacterial cell interaction with colloid Au (0) and ionic Au (III) states has been investigated. It is shown that the bacterial walls of Bacillus sp. 4368 aggregating with colloid gold contain glycoprotein with isoelectric point 11. Glycoprotein from cell walls indifferent to colloid gold strain (Bacillus subtilis 168) has pHiso = 5. At the same time the cells of both strains accumulate Au (III) introduced into a medium in the form of tetrachloroaurate. The process is energy-dependent because it is suppressed by azide, uncouplers of oxidative phosphorylation and dicyclohexyl carbodiimide (DCCD). The role of ATPase of Au (III) accumulation has been studied on Bacillus sp. 4368 plasma membrane vesicles. The ATPase activity is inhibited by 70, 50 and 35-50% by vanadate, DCCD and Au (III), respectively, but it does not change in the presence of dinitrophenol and NaN3. ATP but not ADP and AMP stimulated the Au (III) accumulation by membrane vesicles and prevents the inhibitory action of azide but neither of DNP or DCCD. In the energized state membrane vesicles link gold sol particles. It has been assumed that the Au (III) accumulation is associated with the functioning of transmembrane potential generators, the metal being localized on the membrane surface.

Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE)-choroid-sclera preparations from black dutch-belted rabbits were sealed in an Ussing chamber maintained at 37-39 degrees C. Typical preparations produced a spontaneous voltage (Ve) of 12.5 mV (retina side positive) and possessed an electrical resistance (R) of 350 ohm-cm2. Both of these values can be attributed to the RPE. Ouabain and amiloride diminished the Ve without affecting R. Ouabain was effective when applied to the apical but not to the basolateral side of the preparation, suggesting the presence of a Na-K ATPase on rabbit RPE apical membrane similar to that found in bullfrogs, embryonic chickens, cats and dogs. Dinitrophenol also reduced Ve. Digoxin, furosemide, bumetanide, ethacrynic acid and chlorothiazide had no apparent effect upon Ve and R. The lack of response to furosemide, bumetanide and ethacrynic acid strongly suggests that, unlike RPE from other species, rabbit RPE does not possess Na-dependent Cl transport and/or does not possess furosemide receptors on its apical membrane.

Administration of beta- and gamma-isomers of hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) at 800 ppm dietary level for 2 weeks to albino rats produced noticeable hepatocellular damage as indicated by elevations in serum aminotransferases and decreases in hepatic soluble enzymes. Although serum total LDH activity was not altered, the LD5 isoenzyme was proportionately higher in the HCH isomers treated animals. Treatment of rats with beta- and gamma-isomers of HCH increased the hepatic glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and aldolase activities suggesting a higher rate of glucose oxidation. Liver glucose-6-phosphatase activity was decreased in these animals indicating inactivation of gluconeogenesis in liver. Dietary beta- and gamma-HCH decreased the liver mitochondrial DNP/Mg++/Ca++-activated ATPases thus affecting the energy metabolism. An unaltered ratio of DNP/Mg++-ATPase, a study of swelling pattern of hepatic mitochondria, and NAD+ permeability test suggested the maintenance of structural integrity of mitochondrial membrane in these pesticide fed animals. Liver microsomal Na+,K+-ATPases were lower in these animals.

The affinity reagents 3'-O-(5-fluoro-2,4-dinitrophenyl) [alpha-32P]ATP (FDNP-[alpha-32P]ATP) and 3'-O-(5-fluoro-2,4-dinitrophenyl) [8-14C]ATP (FDNP-[14C]ATP) were synthesized and used to characterize the structure and function of the three active sites in F1-ATPase. FDNP-[alpha-32P]ATP was found to bind covalently to F1 up to two DNP-[alpha-32P]ATP labels per F1 in the absence of Mg2+ without decreasing the ATPase activity. However, when MgCl2 was subsequently added to the reaction mixture, the enzyme could be further labeled with concomitant decrease in ATPase activity that is consistent with the complete inactivation of one enzyme molecule by an affinity label at the third ATP-binding site. Partial hydrolysis of the FDNP-[14C]ATP-labeled enzyme and sequencing of the isolated peptide indicated that the affinity label was attached to Lys-beta 301 at all three active sites. Samples of F1 with covalent affinity label on Lys-beta 301 were also used to reconstitute F1-deficient submitochondrial particles. The reconstituted particles were assayed for ATPase and oxidative phosphorylation activities. These results show that the catalytic hydrolysis of ATP either by F1 in solution or by F0F1 complex attached to inner mitochondrial membrane takes place essentially at only one active site, but is promoted by the binding of ATP at the other two active sites, and that ATP synthesis during oxidative phosphorylation takes place at all three active sites [corrected].

In earlier studies we have established that rat cortical synaptosomes isolated after a 2-h postmortem storage period showed functional performance and morphological characteristics similar to those isolated immediately after decapitation. The present paper is an account of further functional studies involving the activity of Na-K- and Mg-dependent ATPase and the binding of ouabain in postmortem synaptosomes. These functions were found to survive without major alteration even in the 6-h postmortem fractions. On the other hand the 6-h postmortem fractions showed a very slow oxygen consumption unaffected by DNP and veratrine. In both control and postmortem synaptosomes the actual activity of Na-K-ATPase as calculated from the ouabain-sensitive component of oxygen consumption was consistently less than the potential activity of the enzyme revealed if determination was carried out on the basis of phosphate splitting.

Impairment of mitochondrial respiration in early myocardial ischemia was studied with special reference to myocellular irreversible injury. The technique used was total ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery, followed by reconstruction of coronary blood flow, in the dog. State 3 respiratory activity reduced significantly to 76% of that of the non-ischemic myocardium in subendocardial muscle (Endo) as early as 30 min after occlusion, and at 60 min to 84% in the subepicardium (Epi). The activity was not recovered by reperfusion. The activity of complex I of sonicated submitochondrial particles decreased at 30 min to 67% in Endo and at 60 min to 71% in Epi, and was not recovered by reperfusion. Complex II and IV activities were kept in the control level until 60 min of ischemia. DNP-stimulated ATPase activity reduced to 79% in Endo at 15 min and to 70% in Epi at 30 min, but recovered significantly by reperfusion until 30 min of ischemia. Mitochondrial respiratory activity was impaired irreversibly in ischemia for 30 min in Endo and this spread to Epi later. Degradation of complex I is considered to be one of the causes of myocardial irreversibility in early ischemia.

The effect of phosphate on the inhibition by 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzofurazan of the ATPase activity of the proton-translocating ATP synthase in heart submitochondrial particles was investigated. Binding of phosphate protected strongly against the inhibition. A dissociation constant of 0.2 mM was determined for the enzyme X Pi complex and shown to be independent of pH in the range 7.0-8.0. The protective effect of phosphate was mimicked by arsenate but not by sulphate or malonate. Similar results were obtained for the enzyme from Paracoccus denitrificans. 2,4-Dinitrophenol enhanced phosphate binding to the mitochondrial enzyme since the protective effect of phosphate was increased. The data are compatible with protection arising from binding of phosphate to a catalytic site.

1. ATPase natural inhibitor interacted in a mixed non-competitive manner with compounds affecting hydrolytic activity. 2. Ka's for DNP, HCO3- and free ATP, and Ki's for SCN- and ADP became smaller as inhibitor peptide concentration increased, reflecting an increase in affinity of F1-ATPase for these compounds induced by the peptide. 3. Activators increased the peptide inhibitory effect, whereas inhibitors decreased it. 4. A two-step model for the peptide-enzyme interaction is suggested in which ATP hydrolysis is a key factor.

In vivo administration of L-thyroxine (L-T4) in Anabas testudineus, while significantly stimulated the activities of cytochrome c oxidase and alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase (alpha-GPDH), inhibited glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PDH), cytosolic and mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase (cyt. MDH; mit. MDH), and Mg2+ DNP-dependent adenosine triphosphatase (Mg2+ ATPase) activities. The activities of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), and catalase remained unaltered after L-T4 treatment. Administration of protein synthesis inhibitors such as actinomycin D, while significantly inhibited cytochrome oxidase, alpha-GPDH, catalase, SDH, and Mg2+ ATPase activities, did not change LDH, cyt. MDH, and mit. MDH activities. Chloramphenicol injection significantly stimulated cytochrome oxidase, alpha-GPDH, and G-6-PDH activities. Simultaneous injections of actinomycin D or chloramphenicol with 3,5,3'-triiodo-L-thyronine (L-T3) or L-T4 prevented the effects of thyroid hormones on enzyme activities, when compared to the respective controls.
