Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD) inhibits the (Ca2+)ATPase, Ca2+ uptake by sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles and Ca2+ binding to the (Ca2+)ATPase from sarcoplasmic reticulum. Ca2+ (at micron concentrations) specifically protects against DCCD inhibition. The inhibition can, therefore, be readily demonstrated only in the presence of Ca2+ chelating agents such as EGTA. In the presence of EGTA, the ionophore A-23187 increased the sensitivity to DCCD. The ionophore also increased the phosphorylation of the enzyme by inorganic phosphate in the presence of Mg2+. These results indicate that tightly bound Ca2+ is located in a hydrophobic region of the enzyme which is not accessible to EGTA. Complete inhibition of the (Ca2+)ATPase is accompanied by binding of 4--5 nmol of [14C]DCCD per mg of ATPase protein in the absence of Ca2+ compared with 2 nmol bound per mg in the presence of Ca2+ with no ATPase inhibition. Assuming a molecular weight of 100 000 for the ATPase monomer, about 1 nmol of DCCD inhibits 4 nmol of ATPase. This result suggests that the minimal functional unit of the enzyme is a tetramer. Following trypsin digestion of the [14C]DCCD-labeled ATPase most of the radioactivity appears in the 20 000-dalton fragment. We propose that DCCD reacts with the Ca2+-binding site of the ATPase.

The oligomycin- and N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-sensitive adenosine triphosphatase complex extracted with Triton X-100 from the chromatophores of Rhodospirillum rubrum was extensively purified. The purification procedure included (diethylamino)ethylcellulose chromatography and glycerol gradient centrifugation. The specific activity of Mg2+-dependent ATP hydrolysis in the purified preparation increased about 11-fold, while that of Ca2+-dependent ATP hydrolysis increased 50-fold as compared with chromatophores. The purified adenosine triphosphatase complex dissociated into a maximum of eight different polypeptides upon electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. The estimated subunit molecular weights were as follows: 56 000 (alpha), 50 000 (beta), 33 000 (gamma), and those ranging from 17 000 to 9400 for the remaining smaller subunits. The purified preparation was incorporated into phospholipid vesicles by using the freeze--thaw technique. The reconstituted vesicles catalyzed [32P]ATP exchange, which was almost completely inhibited by both oligomycin and N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide as well as by a protonophorous uncoupler, carbonyl cyanide p-(trifluoromethoxy)phenylhydrazone.

Intense illumination isolated, intact, spinach chloroplasts triggers the well known proton-pumping Mg2+ ATPase activity of coupling factor, which can be assayed in subsequently lysed chloroplasts by monitoring ATP-driven quenching of 9-aminoacridine fluorescence. The light-triggered ATPase activity decays slowing in the dark and is inhibited by N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. After osmotic lysis and washing of the chloroplasts, preillumination no longer triggers maximal proton-pumping ATPase until methylviologen and dithiothreitol are added to the medium. It is suggested that intact organelles contain soluble or loosely bound cofactors necessary for light-triggering of coupling factor ATPase. On osmotic lysis, these endogenous cofactors are diluted or inactivated and must be replaced by addition of a dithiol reagent and an electron acceptor.

Hydrogenase and the adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) synthetase complex, two enzymes essential in ATP generation in Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum, were localized in internal membrane systems as shown by cytochemical techniques. Membrane vesicles from this organism possessed hydrogenase and adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity and synthesized ATP driven by hydrogen oxidation or a potassium gradient. ATP synthesis depended on anaerobic conditions and could be inhibited in membrane vesicles by uncouplers, nigericin, or the ATPase inhibitor N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. The presence of an adenosine 5'-diphosphate-ATP translocase was postulated. With fluorescent dyes, a membrane potential and pH gradient were demonstrated.

Short-chain ubiquinone (UQ-3) abolishes oligomycin sensitivity of ATPase in submitochondrial particles and the effect is reversed by long-chain ubiquinone (UQ-7). Ubiquinone-3 also abolishes DCCD sensitivity of ATPase in submitochondrial particles but the effect is not reversed by long-chain ubiquinones. These data suggest that ubiquinone interferes with energy transfer process by interaction with mitochondrial ATPase.

Cell division is induced in stationary cultures of BALB/c-3T3 mouse embryo cells without renewal of medium by addition of the tumor promoter, phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), or bovine serum. The addition of dbcAMP (10(-3) M) or other inhibitors of cAMP phosphodiesterase, papaverine (6.7 X 10(-6) M), Persantin (5 X 10(-5) M) or RO-20-1724 (10(-4) M), prevents cell replication induced by PMA or serum. In contrast, ouabain (10(-4) M) and N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (10(-5) M), inhibitors of Na+-K+-ATPase activity, block the PMA-stimulated effect but do not inhibit serum-stimulated cell division. Several stages in the cell cycle are sensitive to dbcAMP addition. One is early in the G1 phase at the time of reinitiation of the cell cycle from a stationary (Go) phase, a second is associated with the G1-S transition, and a third with passage of cells from a post-S phase to mitosis. Based on observations of early morphological changes, responses of plasma membrane enzymes and effects of enzyme inhibitors, the stimulation of cell division in BALB/c-3T3 cells by PMA or serum appears to involve several membrane functions which may act in a cooperative manner.

(1) Extensive studies on proton-translocating ATPase (H+-ATPase) revealed that H+-ATPase is an energy transforming device universally distributed in membranes of almost all kinds of cells. (2) Crystallization of the catalytic portion (F1) of H+-ATPase showed that F1 is a hexagonal molecule with a central hole. The diameter of F1 is about 90 A and its molecular weight is about 380,000. (3) Use of thermophilic F1 permits the complete reconstitution of F1 from its five subunits (alpha, beta, gamma, delta, epsilon) and demonstration of the gate function of the gamma delta epsilon-complex, the catalytic function of beta (supported by alpha and gamma), and the H+-translocating functions of all five subunits. (4) Studies using purified thermostable F0 showed that F0 is an H+-channel portion of H+-ATPase. The direct measurement of H+-flux through F0, sequencing of DCCD-binding protein, and isolation of F1-binding protein are described. (5) The subunit stoichiometry of F1 may be alpha 3 beta 3 gamma delta epsilon. (6) Reconstitution of stable H+-ATPase-liposomes revealed that ATP is directly synthesized by the flow of H+ driven by an electrochemical potential gradient and that H+ is translocated by ATP hydrolysis. This rules out functions for all the hypothetical components that do not belong to H+-ATPase in H+-driven ATP synthesis. The roles of conformation change and other phenomena in ATP synthesis are also discussed.

Adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) from Thiobacillus ferrooxidans was purified 55-fold. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the most purified fraction showed only one major band; histochemical analysis showed that the ATPase activity was associated with this band. The pH optimum is 9-10. The enzyme hydrolyzed ATP stoichiometrically to ADP and inorganic phosphate, the Km for this substrate being 7.75 times 10-3 M. GTP and ITP are alternate substrates, the Km values for these being 6.71 times 10-3 M and 3.12 times 10-3 M, respectively. ADP is slightly hydrolyzed. Magnesium, manganese, and calcium can serve as cofactors; Km values for these are 2.0 times 10-3 M, 9.4 times 10-4 M, and 8.0 times 10-4 M, respectively. The enzyme activity was not activated by either sodium or potassium, but a combination of the two ions were inhibitory. Azide and p-hydroxymercuribenzoate strongly inhibited the enzyme activity, whereas cyanide, dinitrophenol, and N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD) were without effect. The enzyme was cold labile at 0 degrees-C, but was more stable at 18-24 degrees-C.

1. Mitochondrial membrane of brown adipose tissue compared to that of liver possesses a very high activity of oxidative enzymes but a low activity of ATPase. 2. The polypeptide composition of the mitochondrial membranes proves that the above differences in enzyme activities are due to increased content of oxidative enzymes and decreased content of ATPase in brown adipose tissue. 3. The inhibition of ATPase of brown adipose tissue mitochondria by aurovertin, oligomycin and DCCD indicates modified proportions between the components of the ATPase complex. 4. The organization of brown adipose tissue mitochondrial membrane in relation to its thermogenic function is discussed.

The transport processes for uridine, deoxycytidine, uracil, adenine and hypoxanthine require an energy source and are active under anaerobic or aerobic conditions. Inhibitory effects of cyanide, arsenate, carbonylcyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone, 2,4-dinitrophenol and N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide on the transport of uridine and deoxycytidine differ from the corresponding effects on the transport of uracil, adenine and hypoxanthine. The nature of these inhibitory effects supports the conclusion that uridine and deoxycytidine transport is energized either by electron transport or by ATP hydrolysis via (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase. The transport or uracil, adenine and hypoxanthine is dependent upon ATP or some high energy phosphate derivative of ATP, but is independent of (Ca2+ + Mg+)-ATPase and electron transport. Uptake of the ribose moiety of uridine by a mutant of Escherichia coli B, which lacks the transport system for uracil and intact uridine, is neither stimulated by energy sources nor inhibited by various inhibitors of energy metabolism under either aerobic or anaerobic conditions.
