A DNA helicase activity was detected in extracts of purified chloroplasts from the SB-1 cell line of Glycine max and partially purified by column chromatography on DEAE cellulose, phosphocellulose, and single-stranded DNA cellulose. The chloroplast helicase has a DNA-dependent ATPase activity, and its strand displacement activity is strictly dependent upon the presence of a nucleoside triphosphate and Mg2+ or Mn2+. Strand displacement activity does not require a free unannealed single-strand or replication fork-like structure.

Prolonged achlorhydria leads to hypergastrinemia which must be matched by increased gastrin production. The extent to which the balance between synthesis and storage or secretion is shifted in achlorhydria remains uncertain. In the present study, rats were treated for 14 days with the hydrogen-potassium-stimulated ATPase inhibitor omeprazole, and the effects on plasma and tissue gastrin concentrations and on the abundance of gastrin messenger RNA were examined. To calculate the fractional release rates of gastrin, the metabolic clearance rate of synthetic unsulfated rat heptadeca peptide gastrin in anesthetized rats was also measured. Treatment with omeprazole for 14 days led to a profound hypergastrinemia, a twofold increase in antral gastrin stores, and a tenfold increase in messenger RNA. Calculations based on the metabolic clearance rate for rat heptadecapeptide gastrin suggested that in control rats, about 0.08% of stored gastrin was released per minute compared with about 0.4% in omeprazole-treated rats. No evidence was observed to suggest that changes in the efficiency of conversion of Gly-extended gastrins to amidated peptides were of any significance in accounting for the increased production of amidated gastrin. The increased gastrin synthesis in achlorhydria is therefore attributable to increased messenger RNA levels; most of the increase in gastrin production is directly secreted as changes in the stores of gastrin appear to be of lesser importance.

The expression of Ha-ras in quiescent NIH3T3 cells carrying a glucocorticoid-inducible human Ha-ras gene (Val-Gly mutation at codon 12) stimulates total 86Rb+ influx. This effect is predominantly due to an elevated 86Rb+ uptake through an ouabain-resistant, furosemide-sensitive system. The ouabain-sensitive Na+/K(+)-ATPase is less affected. The transport which is resistant to both inhibitors is not altered by Ha-ras. Overexpression of the Ha-ras proto-oncogene causes only a marginal increase in total 86Rb+ uptake. The stimulation of the furosemide-sensitive influx by Ha-ras is paralleled by an increase in mean cell volume which can be inhibited by furosemide. A rapid stimulation of the furosemide-sensitive Rb+ influx is also observed after addition of bombesin to growth-arrested cells. Furosemide inhibits the mitogenic response after expression of Ha-ras or addition of bombesin. Both the Ha-ras and the bombesin-induced stimulation of the furosemide-sensitive Rb+ transport can be blocked by protein kinase C depletion or the protein kinase C inhibitor staurosporine. In contrast to bombesin-induced phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate hydrolysis which is down-modulated by Ha-ras, the stimulation of the furosemide-sensitive Rb+ influx by bombesin is elevated in Ha-ras-expressing cells. This is in accordance with the increased mitogenic activity of bombesin in Ha-ras-expressing cells.

The synthetic heptapeptide, Ile-Arg-Ile-Cys-Arg-Lsy-Gly-ethoxy, an analog of one of the actin binding sites on myosin head (S-site) (Suzuki, R., Nishi, N., Tokura, S., and Morita, F. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 11410-11412) was found to completely inhibit the acto-S-1 (myosin subfragment 1) ATPase activity. The effect of the heptapeptide on the binding ability of S-1 for F-actin was determined by an ultracentrifugal separation. Results indicated that the heptapeptide scarcely dissociated the acto-S-1 complex during the ATPase reaction. Consistent results were obtained from the acto-S-1 ATPase activities determined as a function of S-1 concentrations in the absence or presence of the heptapeptide at a fixed F-actin concentration. The heptapeptide reduced the maximum acto-S-1 ATPase activity without affecting the apparent dissociation constant of the acto-S-1 complex. The heptapeptide bound by a site on actin complementary to the S-site probably inhibits the activation of S-1 ATPase by F-actin. These results suggest that S-1 ATPase is necessary to rebind transiently with F-actin at the S-site in order to be activated by F-actin. This is consistent with the activation mechanism proposed assuming the two actin-binding sites on S-1 ATPase (Katoh, T., and Morita F. (1984) J. Biochem. (Tokyo) 96, 1223-1230).

The ATP synthases of eubacteria and eukaryotes possess a conserved tyrosine (beta 331) that is labeled by ATP analogs and is believed to be at the catalytic site. In this report, this tyrosine was replaced by Phe, Ser, Cys, Gly, and Ala in an attempt to determine its role in catalysis. Each of the beta 331 mutant strains assembled an ATP synthase. Membranes from the beta 331-Ser, -Cys, -Ala, or -Gly strains showed strongly attenuated ATP hydrolysis and ATP-driven proton-pumping activities. The beta 331-Phe membranes showed nearly normal ATPase and functional proton pumping. A new purification procedure yielding highly active unc+ F1 (ATPase rates greater than 1000 s-1) allowed rapid isolation of soluble F1-ATPases. Kinetic analyses of purified enzymes confirmed that the structural and functional properties of beta 331-Tyr can be substituted by Phe but not effectively by Ser, Cys, Ala, or Gly. Since all of the beta 331 mutant enzymes catalyzed measurable ATP hydrolysis, it is clear that beta 331-Tyr is not directly involved in the bond making-breaking steps of catalysis. The ability of the beta 331-Phe enzyme to rapidly bind and hydrolyze ATP, and the results with other beta 331 mutant enzymes, suggests that a residue with an aromatic character is required at this position.

The proteolipid subunit c of F1F0-type H(+)-transporting ATP synthases [ATP phosphohydrolase (H(+)-transporting), EC 3.6.1.34] contains a conserved Asp/Glu residue that is thought to function in H+ translocation. To test the importance of the position of this residue in the Escherichia coli enzyme, we used oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis to move the carboxyl side chain from position 61 to position 58, 60, or 62. Mutant cells with these changes were incapable of growth via oxidative phosphorylation on succinate. An Asp-61----Glu mutant grew on succinate but at 50% the efficiency of wild type. Hence, even minor changes in the position of the carboxyl group can significantly reduce function. In a second approach, slow-growing revertants to an Asp-61----Gly mutant were isolated. In one such revertant, Ala-24 was changed to Asp, while the original Asp-61----Gly mutation remained unchanged. The Asp-24-Gly-61 double mutant grew on succinate at 60% the efficiency of wild type. Hence the essential carboxyl group of subunit c can function when anchored at either position 24 or position 61, and this supports the idea that these residues may neighbor each other when subunit c is folded in the membrane. The rate of ATP-driven H+ translocation by mutant membrane vesicles was estimated by the quenching of 9-amino-6-chloro-2-methoxyacridine fluorescence and corresponded to actual H+ pumping rates less than 25% that of wild type.

The sequences Thr-Gly-Glu-Ser184 and Asp-Gln-Ser178 and individual residues Asp149, Asp157, and Asp162 in the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2(+)-ATPase are highly conserved throughout the family of cation-transporting ATPases. Mutant Thr181----Ala, Gly182----Ala, Glu183----Ala, and Glu183----Gln, created by in vitro mutagenesis, were devoid of Ca2+ transport activity. None of these mutations, however, affected phosphorylation of the enzyme by ATP in the presence of Ca2+ or by inorganic phosphate in the absence of Ca2+, indicating that the high affinity Ca2(+)-binding sites and the nucleotide-binding sites were intact. In each of these mutants, the ADP-sensitive phosphoenzyme intermediate (E1P) decayed to the ADP-insensitive form (E2P) very slowly relative to the wild-type enzyme, whereas E2P decayed at a rate similar to that of the wild-type enzyme. Thus, the inability of the mutants to transport Ca2+ was accounted for by an apparent block of the transport reaction at the E1P to E2P conformational transition. These results suggest that Thr181, Gly182, and Glu183 play essential roles in the conformational change between E1P and E2P. Mutation of Ser184, Asp157, or Ser178 had little or no effect on either Ca2+ transport activity or expression. Mutations of Asp149, Asp162, and Gln177, however, were poorly expressed. Where expression could be measured, in mutations to Asp162 and Gln177, Ca2+ transport activity was essentially equivalent to that of the wild-type enzyme.

At concentrations from 10 to 100 mM, inorganic phosphate and sulfate stimulate the activity of the H(+)-ATPase purified from the wild type Schizosaccharomyces pombe plasma membranes. Compared to the wild type ATPase, the stimulation by phosphate is more pronounced in the mutant pma1-1 (Gly-268----Asp) and is much reduced in the mutant pma1-2 (Lys-250----Thr) enzymes. In contrast, the inhibition by trifluoperazine is less pronounced in the pma1-1 mutant than in the wild type or pma1-2 mutant. The mutant pma1-2 ATPase activity is markedly stimulated by 10-20% dimethyl sulfoxide, which has a limited effect on the wild type and pma1-1 enzymes. These data indicate that the protein domain located in the beta-strand sector, including Lys-250 and Gly-268, is located in the active site and that its hydrophobic character influences the interactions of the yeast H(+)-ATPase with inorganic phosphate, as well as with the hydrophobic inhibitor trifluoperazine or the hydrophobic solvent dimethyl sulfoxide.

A short sequence motif rich in glycine residues, Gly-X-X-X-X-Gly-Lys-Thr/Ser, has been found in many nucleotide-binding proteins including the beta subunit of Escherichia coli H(+)-ATPase (Gly-Gly-Ala-Gly-Val-Gly-Lys-Thr, residues 149-156). The following mutations were introduced in this region of the cloned E. coli unc operon carried by a plasmid pBWU1: Ala-151----Pro or Val; insertion of a Gly residue between Lys-155 and Thr-156; and replacement of the region by the corresponding sequence of adenylate kinase (Gly-Gly-Pro-Gly-Ser-Gly-Lys-Gly-Thr) or p21 ras protein (ras) (Gly-Ala-Gly-Gly-Val-Gly-Lys-Ser). All F0F1 subunits were synthesized in the deletion strain of the unc operon-dependent on pBWU1 with mutations, and essentially the same amounts of H(+)-ATPase with these mutant beta subunits were found in membranes. The adenylate kinase and Gly insertion mutants showed no oxidative phosphorylation or ATPase activity, whereas the Pro-151 mutants had higher ATPase activity than the wild-type, and the Val-151 and ras mutants had significant activity. It is striking that the enzyme with the ras mutation (differing in three amino acids from the beta sequence) had about half the membrane ATPase activity of the wild-type. These results together with the simulated three-dimensional structures of the wild-type and mutant sequences suggest that in mutant beta subunits with no ATPase activity projection of Thr-156 residues was opposite to that in the wild-type, and that the size and direction of projection of residue 151 are important for the enzyme activity.

Amino acids in three highly conserved segments of the Ca2(+)-ATPase. Asp-Pro-Pro-Arg604, Thr-Gly-Asp627, Thr-Gly-Asp703 as well as Asp707, have been proposed to participate in formation of the nucleotide binding site. We have tested this hypothesis by investigating the properties of mutants with alterations to amino acids within these segments. Most of the mutants were found to be defective in Ca2+ transport function. The inactive mutants could be separated into two classes on the basis of the kinetics of phosphoenzyme intermediate formation and decomposition. One group, Asp601----Asn, Pro603----Leu, Asp627----Glu, and Asp703----Asn, formed phosphoenzyme intermediates with ATP in the presence of Ca2+ and with inorganic phosphate only in the absence of Ca2+, indicating that both the high affinity Ca2+ binding sites and the nucleotide binding sites were intact. In each of these mutants, however, the ADP-sensitive phosphoenzyme intermediate (E1P) decayed to the ADP-insensitive phosphoenzyme intermediate very slowly, relative to the wild-type enzyme. Thus the inability of these mutants to transport Ca2+ was accounted for by an apparent block of the transport reaction at the E1P to E2P conformational transition. Another group, Asp601----Glu, Pro603----Gly, Asp707----Glu, and Asp707----Asn, did not form detectable phosphoenzyme intermediates from either ATP or Pi. Although we have demonstrated an effect on Ca2+ transport of mutations in each of the highly conserved regions predicted to be involved in ATP binding, we cannot yet define their roles in ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport.
