We examined the energy requirement for maltose transport in right-side-out membrane vesicles derived from Escherichia coli. When membrane vesicles were made from strains producing tethered maltose-binding proteins by dilution of spheroplasts into phosphate buffer, those from an F0F1 ATPase-containing (unc+) strain transported maltose in the presence of an exogenous electron donor, such as ascorbate/phenazine methosulfate, at a rate of 1-5 nmol/min per mg of protein, whereas those from an isogenic unc- strain failed to transport maltose. Transport in vesicles obtained from the latter strain could be restored in the presence of electron donors if the vesicles were made to contain NAD+ and either ATP or an ATP-regenerating system. ATP hydrolysis was apparently required for transport, since nonhydrolyzable ATP analogues did not sustain transport. Maltose transport significantly increased ATP hydrolysis in ATP-containing vesicles from unc- cells. Finally, ATP-containing vesicles from unc- strains producing normal maltose-binding proteins could accumulate maltose in the absence of electron donors. These results provide convincing evidence that it is the hydrolysis of ATP that drives maltose transport, and probably also other periplasmic-binding-protein-dependent transport systems.

Hypocrellin A (HA)-sensitized photoinactivation of enzymes in human erythrocyte membrane, including AchE, GPDH, Na(+)-K+ ATPase, Ca2(+)-Mg2+ ATPase were studied in this paper. The sensitivity of these four enzymes inactivated by HA and light are as following order: Ca2(+)-Mg2+ ATPase greater than Na(+)-K+ ATPase greater than GPDH greater than AchE. The relationship among ATPase inactivation, sulfhydryl photoinactivation and lipid peroxidation was also investigated. Results show that SH group photooxidation probably is one of the major reasons of enzyme inactivation whereas lipid peroxidation has little effect. The isolated GPDH was less sensitive than that membrane-bound, GSH, NAD acted protectively on GPDH and ATPase respectively. The evidence of electrophoresis and protein intrinsic fluorescence showed that protein structure did not change significantly even though most activity had lost in case of GPDH.

The specific activity of the Mg2+-ATPase and the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase has been measured in a microsomal fraction from pig antral smooth muscle with the phosphate-release assay and the NADH-coupled enzyme assay, and the release of inorganic phosphate as a function of time is compared with the concomitant production of ADP. Both assays are found to overestimate the true Mg2+-ATPase activity. The adenylate kinase inhibitor P1,P5-di(adenosine-5'-)pentaphosphate (Ap5A) reduces the specific activity of the Mg2+-ATPase measured in the NADH-coupled enzyme assay to about half of its original value; however, it does not affect the specific activity of the Mg2+-ATPase in the Pi-release assay. The considerable overestimation of the Mg2+-ATPase activity in the NADH-coupled enzyme assay results from a combined action of an ATP pyrophosphatase (ATP in equilibrium AMP + PPi) and adenylate kinase activity contaminating the microsomes. The adenylate kinase activity in the microsomes catalyses the conversion of AMP formed by the ATP pyrophosphatase together with ATP into two ADP's. Also the phosphate-release assay is prone to an overestimation artefact because an inorganic pyrophosphatase will degrade the pyrophosphate and thus lead to additional Pi-production. Measurements of AMP and NAD+ production by HPLC confirmed our proposed reaction scheme. The same (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity is found in both assays, because the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity is calculated from the difference in ATPase activity in the presence and absence of Ca2+, so that as a consequence the interfering activities are automatically subtracted.

ADP-ribosylation of skeletal muscle actin by Clostridium perfringens iota toxin increased the rate of exchange of actin-bound [gamma-32P]ATP by unlabelled ATP about twofold. Increased exchange rates were observed with ATP and ATP[gamma S], much less with ADP but not with AMP or NAD. ADP-ribosylation of skeletal muscle actin reduced "basal" and Mg2+ (1 mM)-induced ATP hydrolysis by about 80%. Similar inhibition of ATP hydrolysis was observed with liver actin ADP-ribosylated by Clostridium botulinum C2 toxin. The data indicate that ADP-ribosylation of actin at Arg-177 largely affects the ATP-binding and ATPase activity.

The enzyme activity of Mg++-ATPase, Na+-K+-ATPase, 5'-nucleotidase and NAD(P)H-oxidase was cytochemically detected at the ultrastructural level in mouse peritoneal macrophages infected with untreated and with specific antibody-coated Toxoplasma gondii tachyzoites. The Mg++-ATPase and 5'-nucleotidase were distributed throughout the macrophages' plasma membrane but were not observed in the membrane lining endocytic vacuoles containing ingested parasites; however, Na+-K+-ATPase activity was detected in the macrophages' plasma membrane as well as in the parasitophorous vacuoles that contained untreated or specific antibody-coated parasites. Reaction product, indicative of NAD(P)H-oxidase, was detected in the parasitophorous vacuoles that contained only specific antibody-coated parasites.

Brush-border and basal-lateral membranes were prepared from rabbit intestinal epithelial cells by differential centrifugation and MgCl2 precipitation. The ADP-ribosylation of proteins in these fractions when incubated with [adenylate-32P]NAD+ and cholera toxin was investigated. Three proteins of molecular mass 45, 40 and 37 kDa were labelled in a toxin-dependent manner in each membrane fraction. The incorporation of 32P-labelled ADP-ribose was 18-fold greater in brush-border membranes than in basal-lateral membranes, comparable to the enrichment of sucrase (marker enzyme for the brush border) in these membranes. There was a 20% release of the 40 and 45 kDa proteins from the brush-border membrane following this ADP-ribosylation. Activation of adenylate cyclase by both cholera toxin and sodium fluoride was 2.7- and 2.3-fold greater, respectively, in basal-lateral membranes than in brush-border membranes, comparable to the enrichment of Na+/K+-ATPase (marker enzyme for the basal-lateral membrane) in these membranes. The effect of sodium fluoride on membranes pretreated with cholera toxin revealed no increase in adenylate cyclase activity above that due to the toxin. This presumably means that both toxin and fluoride activate adenylate cyclase by the same regulatory protein. The results show that cholera toxin catalyzes the ADP-ribosylation of regulatory proteins in the brush-border membrane, and these proteins then migrate to the basal-lateral membrane where they activate the catalytic component of adenylate cyclase.

Mitochondrial functions were investigated in permeabilized rat liver cells. For permeabilization isolated hepatocytes were treated with digitonin using a perifusion technique. After permeabilization the cell count was almost unchanged, and the mitochondrial marker enzyme, glutamate dehydrogenase, was decreased to as little as 83%. The mitochondria in permeabilized cells were functionally intact, a finding evident from a marked stimulation of respiration by ADP, inhibition by carboxyatractyloside, and stimulation by uncoupler. The ADP-stimulated and uncoupled respiration rates with succinate as substrate were comparable to those reported for isolated mitochondria, whereas the rates with NAD(+)-dependent substrates were somewhat higher. The ratios between ADP-stimulated and carboxyatractyloside-inhibited respiration rates were in the range noted for isolated mitochondria with identical substrates. Almost unchanged ADP-stimulated and carboxyatractyloside-inhibited respiration rates were found for at least 180 min after digitonin treatment. The preparation exhibited only a low extramitochondrial ATPase activity which was partially inhibited by vanadate.

Liver mitochondria isolated from vanadate-administered rats showed increased (20-25%) rates of oxidation of both NAD(+)-linked substrates and succinate. Respiratory control index and ADP/O were unaffected by the treatment. Dormant and uncoupler-stimulated ATPase activity also was not affected by vanadate administration. Membrane-bound, electron-transport-linked dehydrogenase activities (both NAD(+)- and succinate-dependent) increased by 15-20% on vanadate treatment. Mitochondrial alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase activity increased by 50% on vanadate administration. The above effects of vanadate on oxidoreductase activities could be prevented by the prior administration of antagonists to alpha-adrenergic receptors. Substrate-dependent H2O2 generation by mitochondria also showed an increase on vanadate administration.

ATPase activity of uterus and ovary was markedly elevated in presence of gossypol and decreased in presence of lactic acid indicating activation and inhibition of energy metabolism by gossypol and lactic acid respectively. The elevated levels of glycogen in uterus indicate inhibition of glycogenolysis as supported by phosphorylase activity. Whereas in ovary the glycogen depletion indicates activation of glycogenolysis supported by phosphorylase activity. The activity levels of aldolase and G-6-PDH decreased in the uterus in presence of gossypol and increased in presence of lactic acid. The same were elevated in ovary indicating the activation of hexose mono and diphosphate pathways. Lactic acid accumulated in presence of both gossypol and lactic acid with a depletion in level of pyruvic acid in both the tissues. This situation in the uterus indicates the condition of anti-implantation in presence of both gossypol and lactic acid. The NAD-LDH activity was inhibited in presence of gossypol and activated in presence of lactic acid in both tissues.

A simple and fast ion pair reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic method has been developed for the simultaneous determination of ATP, ADP, AMP, GTP, GDP, IMP, NADP+, NADPH+, NAD+, NADH, ADP-ribose, inosine, adenosine, hypoxanthine, and xanthine. This method allows us to have a complete picture of the most important nucleotides present in fresh human erythrocytes. Furthermore it is particularly useful in the study of the erythrocyte adenine nucleotide catabolism allowing the detection of degradation products such as IMP, inosine, adenosine, hypoxanthine, and xanthine. The separation of the compounds under investigation is achieved in less than 15 min using a reversed-phase 3-micron Supelcosil LC-18 column and adding tetrabutylammonium, as ion-pair agent, to the buffers. The short time of analysis, the high reproducibility of the system, and the accurate evaluation of the compounds of interest make this method particularly suitable for routine analysis. Finally it is possible to use this assay as an alternative method of measuring activities of enzymes which catalyze reactions involving some of these compounds, as in the case of Na+-K+ ATPase, AMP deaminase, and adenosine deaminase.
