2,4-Dinitrophenol (DNP) activates the myosin ATPase of mammalian skeletal muscle in the presence of Ca2+ or Mg2+, and inhibits it when the bivalent cations are replaced by K+ and EDTA. Activation of Mg2+ATPase is abolished by the presence of unregulated actin. 3-Nitrophenol (3-NP) is also an activator, whereas other analogues (2-nitrophenol, 2-NP, and 4-nitrophenol, 4-NP) are much less effective. Concentrations required for their half-maximal effects (K0.5) range from 2 to 15 mM for 3-NP and DNP in the presence of different cations, and the sequence for the analogues is 3-NP<=DNP<<2-NP approximately 4-NP, which is apparently unrelated to either hydrophobicity or pK. DNP and 3-NP have almost identical effects on the ATPase activity of chymotryptic subfragment 1 as they do on myosin, which is an indication that their target is the globular head region rather than the tail, or the 18 kDa (regulatory) light chain. Analysis of the ATP concentration dependence for subfragment- 1 ATPase in the presence of Ca2+ or Mg2+ shows that DNP activates only at high substrate concentrations, becoming increasingly effective with ATP concentrations in the physiological range. At low substrate concentrations, DNP inhibits hydrolysis by increasing the apparent Km for ATP at the catalytic site. In the presence of Mg2+, it mimics the effect of actin, which increases the Km and accelerates the release of products following hydrolysis. At high substrate concentrations, activation by DNP appears to involve a kinetic component with low affinity for ATP that can increase the overall reaction rate by a factor of 2- to 9-fold, depending on the bivalent cation. This low-affinity component is either induced by the drug (in the presence of Mg2+) or shifted by the drug to a lower ATP concentration range (in the presence of Ca2+).

The multidrug resistance protein (MRP) is an ATP-dependent transport protein for organic anions, as well as neutral or positively charged anticancer agents. In this study we report that dinitrophenyl-S-glutathione increases ATPase activity in plasma membrane vesicles prepared from the MRP-overexpressing cell line GLC4/ADR. This ATPase stimulation parallels the uptake of DNP-SG in these vesicles. We also show that the (iso)flavonoids genistein, kaempferol and flavopiridol stimulate the ATPase activity of GLC4/ADR membranes, whereas genistin has no effect. The present data are consistent with the hypothesis that certain (iso)flavonoids affect MRP-mediated transport of anticancer drugs by a direct interaction with MRP.

1. When added to the Na(+)-containing solution bathing the isolated toad skin, dinitrophenol (DNP, an uncoupler of oxidative phosphorilation) caused decreases in the baseline values of short circuit current (SCC) and transepithelial conductance (G). 2. DNP also inhibited the increases in SCC and G caused by theophylline, whether added prior to the xanthine, or after the effect of the latter was fully developed. 3. In skins exposed to theophylline and bathed in Cl(-)-free (sulfate Ringer's) solution, the changes in SCC and G had a similar time course (t1/2 > 15 min). In the presence of Cl- (skins bathed in Ringer's solution), SCC decreased with a similar rate, whereas the rate of the decrease in G was greater (t1/2 < 15 min). 4. DNP also decreased the SCC induced by a Cl- concentration gradient in skins exposed to theophylline (SCCg) with a time course similar to its effect on the theophylline-increased G in the presence of Cl-. DNP was effective irrespective of the presence of ambient Na+. 5. A similar difference was observed in skins bathed in CIR and exposed to forskolin. In contrast to theophylline, however, forskolin partially overcame the inhibition of G brought about by DNP; no such recovery was observed in SCC. 6. In contrast to its influence on the responses to theophylline and forskolin, DNP failed to prevent either the increase in G or the onset of SCCg in skins exposed to dibutyryl cyclic AMP. 7. Rotenone, an inhibitor of the electron-transport chain, significantly decreased SCC and G in the unstimulated skin. It also prevented the SCC response to theophylline, and decreased it if added after the effects of the xanthine were fully developed, but failed to modify the increase in G brought about by theophylline. The time course of SCC inhibition by rotenone was similar to that caused by DNP. 8. Ouabain, an inhibitor of Na+,K(+)-ATPase, decreased SCC in the theophylline-stimulated skin, without affecting G. 9. We conclude that, whereas integrity of oxidative energy metabolism is necessary to sustain SCC in the isolated toad skin, it is not a strict requirement for the increase of Cl(-)-dependent G activated by cAMP. 10. The effect of DNP on Cl(-)-dependent G activated by cAMP is probably exerted at the cAMP generation step, by inhibition of adenyl cyclase and/or a decrease in the availability of ATP.

Dinitrophenyl S-glutathione (DNP-SG) ATPase is a 38 kDa membrane protein expressed in erythrocytes and other tissues. Although stimulation of ATP hydrolysis catalyzed by DNP-SG ATPase has been demonstrated in the presence of several structurally unrelated amphiphilic ions, structural and functional properties of this protein have not been well-defined. In the present study, we have developed an improved protocol for the purification of DNP-SG ATPase and investigated its kinetic and substrate-binding properties. The purification procedure was based on highly specific elution of the 38 kDa protein from DNP-SG affinity resin in the presence of ATP. The protein could not be eluted using either ADP or adenosine-5'-[beta,gamma-methylene]triphosphate (methylene-ATP), a nonhydrolyzable analogue of ATP. Doxorubicin (DOX), a weakly basic anthracycline chemotherapy agent, was found to be the preferred activator for stimulation of ATP hydrolysis by the enzyme. ATP binding to the enzyme was demonstrated using 8-azido-ATP photoaffinity labeling and binding of trinitrophenyl (TNP)-ATP, a fluorescent analogue of ATP. The photoaffinity labeling of DNP-SG ATPase (38 kDa) was saturable with respect to 8-azido ATP (Kd = 2 microM), indicating that the enzyme was capable of specific and saturable binding to ATP. DNP-SG binding was evident from the purification procedure itself and was also demonstrable by quenching of tryptophan fluorescence. Results of quenching of tryptophan fluorescence as well as radioactive isotope-binding studies indicated that DOX was bound to the purified protein as well.

Purified dinitrophenyl S-glutathione (DNP-SG) ATPase was reconstituted into artificial liposomes prepared from soybean asolectin. Electron micrography confirmed the formation of unilamellar vesicles with an average radius of 0.25 micron. Intravesicular volume estimated by incorporation of radiolabled inulin into the vesicles was found to be 19.7 +/- 1.3 microL/mL reconstitution solution. Accumulation of the glutathione-conjugate of CDNB, DNP-SG, and of doxorubicin (DOX) in the proteoliposomes was increased in the presence of ATP as compared to equimolar ADP or adenosine 5'-[beta,gamma-methylene]triphosphate tetralithium. ATP-dependent transmembrane movement of DOX and DNP-SG into DNP-SG ATPase-reconstituted vesicles was saturable with respect to time, sensitive to the osmolarity of the assay medium, and temperature dependent. The energy of activation was found to be 12 and 15 kcal/mol for DNP-SG and DOX, respectively. Optimal temperature for transport was 37 degrees C. Saturable transport was demonstrated for DNP-SG (Vmax of 433 +/- 20 nmol/min/mg of protein, KmATP = 2.4 +/- 0. 3 mM and KmDNP-SG = 36 +/- 5 microM) as well as DOX (Vmax = 194 +/- 19 nmol/min/mg of protein, KmATP = 2.5 +/- 0.6 mM and KmDOX = 2.4 +/- 0.7 microM). The kinetic data for both DNP-SG and DOX transport were consistent with a random bi-bi sequential reaction mechanism. DOX was found to be a competitive inhibitor of DNP-SG transport with Kis of 1.2 +/- 0.2 microM and DNP-SG was found to be a competitive inhibitor of DOX transport with Kis of 13.3 +/- 2.6 microM.

An uncoupler of oxidative phosphorylation, 2,4-dinitrophenol, and an aconitase inhibitor, fluoroacetic acid, both of which are known to lower the cellular ATP pool, protected Escherichia coli cells from the bactericidal actions of gyrase poisons including quinolone antibiotics, nalidixic acid and ciprofloxacin, and the epipodophyllotoxins VP-16 and VM-26. Using purified E. coli DNA gyrase, we examined the effect of ATP on gyrase-mediated DNA cleavage in the presence of these gyrase poisons. ATP was shown to stimulate gyrase-mediated DNA cleavage from 10- to more than 100-fold in the presence of these gyrase poisons. ADP antagonized the stimulatory effect of ATP. Consequently, gyrase-mediated DNA cleavage induced by gyrase poisons is modulated by the ATP concentration/ADP concentration ([ATP]/[ADP]) ratio. Coumermycin A1, an inhibitor of the ATPase subunit of DNA gyrase, like ADP, also effectively antagonized the stimulatory effect of ATP on gyrase-mediated DNA cleavage induced by gyrase poisons. Furthermore, coumermycin A1, like DNP and fluoroacetic acid, also protected cells from the bactericidal action of gyrase poisons. In the aggregate, our results are consistent with the notion that the [ATP]/[ADP] ratio, through its modulatory effect on the gyrase-mediated DNA cleavage, is an important determinant of cellular susceptibility to gyrase poisons.

Cumulative evidence suggests that several organic anions are actively effluxed from the brain to the blood across the blood-brain barrier (BBB). We examined the possibility of the presence of primary active transporters for organic anions (multidrug resistance associated protein (MRP) and canalicular multispecific organic anion transporter (cMOAT)) on the BBB by measuring the ATP-dependent uptake of 2,4-dinitrophenyl-S-glutathione (DNP-SG) and leukotriene C4 (LTC4) into membrane vesicles prepared from a cell line derived from mouse brain capillary endothelial cells (MBEC4). The ATP-dependent uptake of DNP-SG into the membrane vesicles was osmotically sensitive and was also supported by GTP, but not by AMP or ADP. An ATPase inhibitor, vanadate, blocked the ATP-dependent uptake of DNP-SG. The ATP-dependent uptake process was saturable, with Km values of 0.56 and 0.22 microM, and Vmax values of 5.5 and 27.5 pmol/min/mg protein for DNP-SG and LTC4, respectively. Northern and Western blot analyses showed the expression of murine MRP but not cMOAT in MBEC4 cells. Western blot analysis of the rat cerebral endothelial cells indicated the expression of protein(s) that is detectable with MRPr1, an antibody against MRP. These results, together with previous findings that both DNP-SG and LTC4 are good ligands for MRP, suggest that MRP is responsible for the unidirectional, energy-dependent efflux of organic anions from the brain into the circulating blood across the BBB.

Glutathione (GSH) S-transferases (GSTs) have an important role in the detoxification of (+)-anti-7,8-dihydroxy-9,10-oxy-7,8,9, 10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene [(+)-anti-BPDE], which is the ultimate carcinogen of benzo[a]pyrene. However, the fate and/or biological activity of the GSH conjugate of (+)-anti-BPDE [(-)-anti-BPD-SG] is not known. We now report that (-)-anti-BPD-SG is a competitive inhibitor (Ki 19 microM) of Pi-class isoenzyme mGSTP1-1, which among murine hepatic GSTs is most efficient in the GSH conjugation of (+)-anti-BPDE. Thus the inhibition of mGSTP1-1 activity by (-)-anti-BPD-SG might interfere with the GST-catalysed GSH conjugation of (+)-anti-BPDE unless one or more mechanisms exist for the removal of the conjugate. The results of the present study indicate that (-)-anti-BPD-SG is transported across canalicular liver plasma membrane (cLPM) in an ATP-dependent manner. The ATP-dependent transport of (-)-anti-[3H]BPD-SG followed Michaelis-Menten kinetics (Km 46 microM). The ATP dependence of the (-)-anti-BPD-SG transport was confirmed by measuring the stimulation of ATP hydrolysis (ATPase activity) by the conjugate in the presence of cLPM protein, which also followed Michaelis-Menten kinetics. In contrast, a kinetic analysis of ATP-dependent uptake of the model conjugate S-[3H](2,4-dinitrophenyl)-glutathione ([3H]DNP-SG) revealed the presence of a high-affinity and a low-affinity transport system in mouse cLPM, with apparent Km values of 18 and 500 microM respectively. The ATP-dependent transport of (-)-anti-BPD-SG was inhibited competitively by DNP-SG (Ki 1.65 microM). Likewise, (-)-anti-BPD-SG was found to be a potent competitive inhibitor of the high-affinity component of DNP-SG transport (Ki 6.3 microM). Our results suggest that GST-catalysed conjugation of (+)-anti-BPDE with GSH, coupled with ATP-dependent transport of the resultant conjugate across cLPM, might be the ultimate detoxification pathway for this carcinogen.

Molecular masses of functional units of two components of 2, 4-dinitrophenyl-S-glutathione (DNP-SG) transport across the erythrocyte membrane determined by radiation inactivation were 437 +/- 69 kDa for the high-affinity component and 466 +/- 67 kDa for the low-affinity component. These results confirm that the multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) 1 is responsible for the high-affinity DNP-SG transport across the erythrocyte membrane and suggest that MRP1 exists in the membrane as a dimer. The molecular size of the low-affinity transporter is similar if not identical to that of MRP1. Moreover, while the molecular mass of the DNP-SG-ATPase activity of the erythrocyte membrane corresponds also to that of MRP (375 +/- 36 kDa), the molecular mass of the functional unit of dinitrophenol-stimulated ATPase is significantly lower (232 +/- 26 kDa), which suggests that thisactivity is linked to a different protein, perhapsaminophospholipid translocase.

Mg(2+)-dependent vanadate-sensitive glutathione S-conjugate ATPase (GS-X pump) activity is a common feature of some ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters, such as the multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP1) gene product, that exports biologically active electrophiles after their conjugation with intracellular glutathione (GSH) from normal and cancer cells. Antitumor electrophiles (e.g. naturally occurring cyclopentenone prostaglandins and anticancer chemicals) can be intracellularly conjugated with GSH via a glutathione S-transferase catalyzed reaction and be eliminated through GS-X pumps thus threatening cancer chemotherapeutics. Since different sensitivities to antitumor electrophiles are shown by different cell types, the ability of several human cancer cell lines to produce and export S-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-glutathione (DNP-SG) conjugate through the GS-X pump, using whole cells and inside-out membrane vesicle preparations, is investigated. Different cancer cell lines exhibited characteristically different GS-X pump activity. In particular, HEp-2 larynx carcinoma cells possess an elevated DNP-SG export rate through the GS-X pump compared with HeLa, K562, U937 or HL-60 cells, which exhibit the lowest activity. The differences in DNP-SG export rates are not due to decreased glutathione S-transferase activity or impaired de novo synthesis of GSH. The findings suggest that the GS-X pump may be involved in the modulation of the biological activity of both naturally occurring electrophiles and anticancer drugs. The differential expression of GS-X pumps may lead to an improved understanding of multidrug resistance and may be exploited in the development of new therapeutic strategies for the treatment of cancer patients.
