1. Isolated outer membranes from rat spleen mitochondria can be stored in liquid N(2) for several weeks without significant loss of ATPase (adenosine triphosphatase) activity. 2. The ATPase reaction has a broad pH optimum centering on neutral pH, with little significant activity above pH9.0 or below pH5.5. 3. A sigmoidal response of the ATPase activity to temperature is observed between 0 and 55 degrees C, with complete inactivation at 60 degrees C. The Arrhenius plot shows that the activation energy above the transition temperature (22 degrees C) (E(a)=144kJ/mol) is one-third of that calculated for below the transition temperature (E'(a)=408kJ/mol). 4. The outer-membrane ATPase (K(m) for MgATP=50mum) is inactive unless Mg(2+) is added, whereas the inner-membrane ATPase (K(m) for ATP=11mum) is active without added Mg(2+) unless the mitochondria have been depleted of all endogenous Mg(2+) (by using ionophore A23187). 5. The substrate for the outer-membrane ATPase is a bivalent metal ion-nucleoside triphosphate complex in which Mg(2+) (K(m)=50mum) can be replaced effectively by Ca(2+) (K(m)=6.7mum) or Mn(2+), and ATP by ITP. Cu(2+), Co(2+), Sr(2+), Ba(2+), Ni(2+), Cd(2+) and Zn(2+) support very little ATP hydrolysis. 6. Univalent metal ions (Na(+), K(+), Rb(+), Cs(+) and NH(4) (+), but not Li(+)) stimulate the MgATPase activity (<10%) at low concentrations (50mm), but, except for K(+), are slightly inhibitory (20-30%) at higher concentrations (500mm). 7. The Mg(2+)-stimulated ATPase activity is significantly inhibited by Cu(2+) (K(i)=90mum), Ni(2+) (K(i)=510mum), Zn(2+) (K(i)=680mum) and Co(2+) (K(i)=1020mum), but not by Mg(2+), Ca(2+), Ba(2+) or Sr(2+). 8. The outer-membrane ATPase is insensitive to the inhibitors oligomycin, NN'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, NaN(3), ouabain and thiol-specific reagents. A significant inhibition is observed at high concentrations of AgNO(3) (0.5mm) and NaF (10mm). 9. The activity towards MgATP is competitively inhibited by the product MgADP (K(i)=0.7mm) but not by the second product P(i) or by 5'-AMP.

The K inhibition of ouabain-sensitive ATPase activity of LK goat red cell membranes is greatly reduced at high pH. This effect is reversible, and specific, since the apparent affinities for ATP, ouabain or external K do not alter. Anti-L-treated membranes show a similar alkali-induced affinity change, but have a lower pH optimum.

The effect of inhibitors and uncouplers on the osmotic shock-sensitive transport systems for glutamine and galactose (by the beta-methyl galactoside permease) was compared to their effect on the osmotic shock-resistant proline and galactose permease systems in cytochrome-deficient cells of Salmonella typhimurium SASY28. Both osmotic shock-sensitive and -resistant systems were sensitive to uncouplers and to inhibitors of the membrane-bound Ca2+, Mg2+-activated adenosine triphosphatase. This suggests that uptake by both types of systems is energized in these cells by an electrochemical gradient of protons formed by ATP hydrolysis through the ATPase.

Kinetic properties of guanylate cyclase present in the washed particles, plasma membranes, and the soluble cytoplasm of heart and skeletal muscle are described; properties of the enzyme solubilized by Triton X-100 treatment of the particles or membrane fractions are also reported. It is apparent from the data that the membrane-bound guanylate cyclase in the cell may be regulated by acetylcholine, may exist as a metallo-protein with bound Mn2+ (essential for activity), and that Mg2+ regulates, whereas Ca2+ and nucleotides (especially ATP) modulate, guanylate cyclase activity. The findings also suggest that guanylate cyclase, similar to adenylate cyclase and (Na+, K+)-ATPase, is mainly located in the plasma membranes of heart and skeletal muscle.

Proteoliposome vesicles containing both bacteriorhodopsin of Halobacterium halobium and H+-translocating ATPase [EC 3.6,1.3] of a thermophilic bacterium, PS3, (TF0-F1) were reconstituted by either the dialysis method or the sonication method. Generation of the electrochemical proton gradient (deltamuH+) in these vesicles was measured using 9-aminoacridine for estimation of the chemical (deltapH) component and 8-anilinonaphthalene sulfonate for the electrical (deltaphi) component). In illuminated bacteriorhodopsin-vesicles the deltamuH+ reached 180-190 mV when reconstituted by the dialysis method and 210-220 mV when reconstituted by the sonication method. Vesicles reconstituted from both TF0-F1 and bacteriorhodopsin by the dialysis method generated a deltapH+ of about 200 mV on addition of ATP, while vesicles prepared by the sonication method generated very little deltamuH+, if any. These vesicles generated similar deltamuH+ on illumination to that found in bacteriorhodopsin-vesicles. Using vesicles reconstituted from both TF0-F1 and bacteriorhodopsin by the dialysis method, light dependent ATP synthesis was measured in relation to deltamuH+ formation. It was necessary to generate a deltamuH+ of above 170 mV for demonstration of appreciable formation of ATP and the greater the deltamuH+, the faster the rate of ATP synthesis.

1. Preincubation of purified (Na+ + K+)-ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) preparations from rabbit kidney outer medulla with 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) inhibits the (Na+ + 5+)-ATPase and K+-stimulated 4-nitro-phenylphosphatase activities. Phosphorylation of the enzyme by ATP and the Na+-stimulated ATPase activity are inhibited to the same extent as the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity, whereas the K+-stimulated 4-nitrophenylphosphatase activity is inhibited much less. 2. Titration with 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) in sodium dodecyl sulphate shows the presence of 36 reactive sulfhydryl groups per molecule (Na+ + K+)-ATPase (Mr = 250 000). 3. Treatment with N-ethylmaleimide, resulting in complete inhibition of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity, leads to modification of 26 sulfhydryl groups, whereas treatment with 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) results in modification of 12 sulfhydryl groups under the same conditions. 4. The reaction of N-ethylmaleimide with an essential SH-group is not prevented by previous blocking of sulfhydryl groups with 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid). 5. These findings indicate the existence of at least two classes of sulfhydryl groups on the enzyme, each containing at least one vital group. The difference between these classes consists in their different reactivity towards 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) and N-ethylmaleimide.

We have compared the adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity of mitochondria prepared from wild-type Neurospora crassa and from poky, a maternally inherited mutant known to possess defective mitochondrial ribosomes and reduced amounts of cytochromes aa3 and b. poky contains two distinct forms of mitochondrial ATPase. The first is normal in its Km for ATP, specificity for nucleotides and divalent cations, pH optimum, cold stability, and sensitivity to inhibitors (oligomycin, N,N-dicyclohexyl carbodiimide, and adenylyl imidodiphosphate). The fact that membrane-bound, cold-stable, oligomycin-sensitive ATPase activity is present in poky (with an activity of 1.93 +/- 0.03 mumol/min-mg of protein compared with 1.33 +/- 0.07 mumol/min-mg of protein in the wild-type strain) and also in chloramphenicol-grown wild-type cells suggests that products of mitochondrial protein synthesis play only a limited role in the attachment of the mitochondrial ATPase to the membrane in Neurospora. poky also contains a second form of mitochondrial ATPase, which has an activity of 1.5 +/- 0.2 mumol/min-mg of protein, is oligomycin sensitive but cold labile, and presumably is attached less firmly to the mitochondrial membrane. The two forms, added together, represent a substantial overproduction of mitochondrial ATPase by poky.

On studying the steady-state activity in 0.6 M KCl, it was found that Mg-ATPase of chicken gizzard myosin was identical with that of rabbit skeletal myosin in the pH-activity profile, Michaelis-Menten constant, and maximum velocity. As regards the "initial burst" of ATP splitting in the presence of Mg (0.6 M KCl), it was found that gizzard and skeletal myosins were identical both in the size of the initial burst and in the velocity-ATP concentration relationship. The only difference we observed was that the Ca- and EDTA-ATPase activities of gizzard myosin were, as reported by other investigators, approximately one-half to one-third of those of skeletal myosin, although the pH-activity profiles for the ATPase of gizzard myosin was essentially the same as that of skeletal myosin.

Experiments over the past decade have revealed a third component in the autonomic nervous system which is neither adrenergic nor cholinergic. These nerves are strongly represented in the gastrointestinal tract of a wide range of vertebrate species and have also been identified in lung, trachea, retractor penis, bladder, oesophagus, eye, seminal vesicle and in some parts of the cardiovascular system and brain. Evidence has been presented that the principal active substance released by these nerves in the gut is a purine nucleotide, probably ATP, and they have therefore been termed 'purinergic'. The evidence includes: (1) synthesis and storage of ATP in nerves; (2) release of ATP from the nerves when they are stimulated; (3) mimicry by exogenously applied ATP of the action of nerve-released transmitter; (4) the presence of Mg2+-activated ATPase, 5'-nucleotidase and adenosine deaminase, enzymes which inactivate ATP; (5) the similar blocking and potentiating effects produced by drugs on the responses to exogenously applied ATP and nerve stimulation. A tentative model for the synthesis, storage, release and inactivation of ATP during purinergic nerve transmission is proposed. Some properties of purinergic receptors are described.

The activity of calcium-stimulated ATPase (E.C. 3.6.1.3) in homogenates of the secretory enamel organ of rat incisors was studied biochemically. ATP hydrolysis was estimated from the amount of inorganic phosphate liberated. An analysis of the total degradation of ATP was initially performed to ensure that the enzyme assays pertained to the original substrate, ATP, and were not influenced by reaction products formed. Standard incubations were run in tris-maleate buffer, pH 8.2, with 3 mM ATP, 3 mM Ca2+ and 0.5 mM R 8231 at 37 degrees C. The presence of R 8231 was necessary to inhibit nonspecific alkaline phosphatase. The calcium-stimulated ATPase was completely inhibited when heated at 55-60 degrees C for 5 min. The pH optimum was found to be 8.2. The hydrolysis was substantially dependent on Ca2+ and was fastest when the ATP:Ca2+ ratio was 1:1. High substrate concentrations inhibited the hydrolysis. The addition of 1 mM Zn2+ and Ni2+ to the incubation medium markedly inhibited the hydrolysis as did, though less strongly, p-hydroxymercuribenzoate, oligomycin, EDTA and ruthenium red. l-Cysteine, mercaptoethanol, iodoacetic acid and sodium azide were without effect. F- was without effect unless added to a final concentration above 15 mM to media where Ca2+ had first been allowed to react with ATP.
