We have previously shown that melittin, a bee venom peptide, potently inhibited the catalytic and transport functions of rabbit gastric (H+ + K+)ATPase. A radioactive photoaffinity analog of melittin, ([125I]azidosalicylyl melittin), labeled the (H+ + K+)ATPase. These results suggested that melittin exerted inhibitory effects through direct interaction with the (H+ + K+)ATPase. In this study we attempt to define the melittin-binding domain of the (H+ + K+)ATPase using conformation-dependent proteolytic fragmentation of [125I]azidosalicylyl melittin-labeled hog gastric (H+ + K+)ATPase. In the presence of KCl (E2 form) the 95,000-Da [125I]-azidosalicylyl melittin-labeled (H+ + K+)ATPase was cleaved by trypsin to a 40,000-Da NH2-terminal tryptic fragment and a 56,000-Da COOH-terminal fragment through cleavage at Arg 454 of the (H+ + K+)ATPase. The 40,000-Da fragment was labeled by [125I]-azidosalicylyl melittin. The 56,000-Da fragment was not labeled. When unmodified (H+ + K+)ATPase was trypsinized in the presence of KCl, and the fragments were then reacted with [125I]azidosalicylyl melittin, similar tryptic fragmentation results were obtained. In the absence of KCl (E1 form), the 56,000- and 40,000-Da fragments did not accumulate. Chymotryptic hydrolysis of [125I]azidosalicylyl melittin-labeled (H+ + K+)-ATPase was very slow in the presence of KCl (E2 form). In the absence of KCl (E1 form), chymotryptic hydrolysis was more rapid, with accumulation of a major 42,000-Da fragment which was radiolabeled. The melittin-binding region on the (H+ + K+)ATPase is N-terminal to Arg 454 of the (H+ + K+)ATPase. This region is known to contain the aspartyl phosphate residue (Asp 385), the site of phosphoenzyme formation on the (H+ + K+)ATPase. Melittin is also known to bind to calmodulin and other proteins. Another known calmodulin-binding peptide with a different sequence but similar structure, Trp-3, (Leu-Lys-Trp-Lys-Lys-Leu-Leu-Lys-Leu-Leu-Lys-Lys-Leu-Leu-Lys-Leu-Gly) also inhibited the (H+ + K+)ATPase and label incorporation by [125I]azidosalicylyl melittin. These Trp-3 results suggested that the (H+ + K+)ATPase contains a peptide-binding domain which is similar to the peptide-binding domains found on other melittin-binding proteins.

Tryptic digestion of pig renal Na/K-ATPase in the presence of Rb and absence of Ca ions removes about half of the protein but leaves a stable 19-kDa membrane-embedded fragment derived from the alpha chain, a largely intact beta chain, and essentially normal Rb- and Na-occlusion capacity. Subsequent digestion with trypsin in the presence of Ca or absence of Rb ions leads to rapid loss of the 19-kDa fragment and a parallel loss of Rb occlusion, demonstrating that the fragment is essential for occlusion. The N-terminal sequence of the 19-kDa fragment is Asn-Pro-Lys-Thr-Asp-Lys-Leu-Val-Asn-Glu-Arg-Leu-Ile-Ser-Met-Ala, beginning at residue 830 and extending toward the C terminus. Membranes containing the 19-kDa fragment have the following functional properties. (i) ATP-dependent functions are absent. (ii) The apparent affinity for occluding Rb is unchanged, the affinity for Na is lower than in the control enzyme, and activation is now strongly sigmoidal rather than hyperbolic. (iii) Membranes containing the 19-kDa fragment can be reconstituted into phospholipid vesicles and sustain slow Rb-Rb exchange. Thus the transport pathway is retained. We conclude that cation occlusion sites and the transport pathway within transmembrane segments are quite separate from the ATP binding site, located on the cytoplasmic domain of the alpha chain. Interactions between cation and ATP sites, the heart of active transport, must be indirect--mediated, presumably, by conformational changes of the protein.

The epitopes of two classes of monoclonal antibody and the binding site for the epsilon subunit have been mapped to the carboxyl-terminal region of the beta subunit of Escherichia coli F1-ATPase using partial CNBr cleavage, weak acid hydrolysis, and Western blots. One class of antibody, B-I, inhibits ATPase activity; the other class, B-II, recognizes an epitope not exposed on the surface of intact F1. Data from two-dimensional gels and blots of beta cleaved with CNBr/weak acid showed that the B-I epitope lies between Asp-381 and the carboxyl-terminal Leu-459, and the B-II epitope lies between Asp-345 and Met-380. Weak acid hydrolysis of the beta-epsilon product obtained by cross-linking F1 with a water-soluble carbodiimide yielded a fragment containing epsilon and a 13-kDa carboxyl-terminal fragment of beta indicating that epsilon interacts with this portion of beta as well. Fab fragments from the B-I antibody beta-6 could be cross-linked to the epsilon subunit in native F1 by various cross-linking agents demonstrating that the antibody and the epsilon subunit occupy adjacent, nonoverlapping sites on the beta subunit. Implications of these results for the roles of the epsilon subunit and of the carboxyl-terminal region of the beta subunit in F1 are discussed.

An isozyme-specific domain of the catalytic subunit of the Na,K-ATPase has been identified using a monoclonal antibody, McK1. The antibody's specificity was confirmed by its ability to stain proteolytic fingerprints of the Na,K-ATPase. The antibody recognized the alpha I isozyme of the rat Na,K-ATPase, but not the alpha II or alpha III isozymes. It recognized native and sodium dodecyl sulfate-denatured Na,K-ATPase and specifically stained basolateral membranes of the renal tubule. It bound to rat alpha I with highest affinity, but also cross-reacted with mouse, monkey, and human alpha I. It did not cross-react with sheep, pig, chicken, Torpedo, or dog alpha I. Fine specificity mapping was used to deduce the most likely antibody binding sites, based on comparison of eight amino acid sequences from cDNA clones. Two potential binding sites were found at widely separated locations. Limited tryptic digestion of the native enzyme was then used to demonstrate that the binding site was close to the N-terminal end of the Na,K-ATPase. The binding site is predicted to include the following essential amino acid sequence: Asp-Lys-Lys-Ser-Lys-Lys in rat alpha I or Asp-Lys-Lys-Gly-Lys-Lys in human alpha I. The antibody was found to bind to opened, but not to sealed right-side-out vesicles isolated from the rat renal medulla, demonstrating that the N-terminal end of the Na,K-ATPase is exposed at the interior of the cell.

The development of tension in platelet-rich clots is a manifestation of fibrin polymer binding to platelets as well as platelet contractile activity. Arg-Gly-Asp(RGD)-containing peptides of fibrinogen alpha-chain and gamma-400-411 of fibrinogen gamma chain increased clot tension considerably, especially when it developed under isometric conditions. Morphometry revealed increased confluence of oriented fibrin and platelet aggregates. Monoclonal antibodies directed against different epitopes on the glycoprotein IIb-IIIa complex had varying effects on clot tension development. Monoclonal antibodies A2A9 and 7E3 inhibited clot tension while T10 and 10E5 increased it. Since neither peptides nor antibodies affected the platelet actomyosin ATPase activity, their effect on tension must reflect the interaction between platelets and polymerizing fibrin. We conclude that gamma-400-411 and RGD-peptides increase platelet-polymerizing fibrin interaction. This suggests that clot tension requires a platelet receptor for polymerizing fibrin, which is different from the fibrinogen receptor domain required for aggregation. The results with the monoclonal antibodies support this hypothesis.

ATP synthesis by oxidative phosphorylation in Escherichia coli occurs in catalytic sites on the beta-subunits of F1-ATPase. Random mutagenesis of the beta-subunit combined with phenotypic screening is potentially important for studies of the catalytic mechanism. However, when applied to haploid strains, this approach is hampered by a preponderance of mutants in which assembly of F1-ATPase in vivo is defective, precluding enzyme purification. Here we mutagenized plasmids carrying the uncD (beta-subunit) gene with hydroxylamine or N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine and isolated, by phenotypic screening and complementation tests, six plasmids carrying mutant uncD alleles. When the mutant plasmids were used to transform a suitable uncD- strain, assembly of F1-ATPase in vivo occurred in each case. Moreover, in one case (beta Gly-223----Asp) F1-ATPase assembly proceeded although it had previously been reported that this mutation, when present on the chromosome of a haploid strain, prevented assembly of the enzyme in vivo. Therefore, this work demonstrates an improved approach for random mutagenesis of the F1-beta-subunit. Six new mutant uncD alleles were identified: beta Cys-137----Tyr; beta Gly-142----Asp; beta Gly-146----Ser; beta Gly-207----Asp; beta-Gly-223----Asp; and a double mutant beta Pro-403----Ser,Gly-415----Asp which we could not separate. The first five of these lie within or very close to the predicted catalytic nucleotide-binding domain of the beta-subunit. The double mutant lies outside this domain; we speculate that the region around residues beta 403-415 is part of an alpha-beta intersubunit contact surface. Membrane ATPase and ATP-driven proton pumping activities were impaired by all six mutations. Purified F1-ATPase was obtained from each mutant and shown to have impaired specific ATPase activity.

Mutations in the plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase gene (PMA1) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae that confer growth resistance to hygromycin B have been shown recently to cause a marked depolarization of whole cell membrane potential (Perlin, D. S., Brown, C. L., and Haber, J. E. (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 18118-18122). In this report, the biochemical and genetic properties of H+-ATPases from four prominent hygromycin B-resistant pma1 mutants, pma1-105, pma1-114, pma1-147, and pma1-155, are described. Single base pair changes were identified in pma1-105, pma1-114, and pma1-147 that resulted in amino acid substitutions of Ser-368----Phe, Gly-158----Asp, Pro-640----Leu, respectively. An A----G transition mutation at -39 in the 5'-untranslated region of the mRNA of pma1-155 was also found. This mutation creates an out-of-Frame upstream AUG initiation codon that apparently reduces normal translation of PMA1. DNA sequence analysis of PMA1 from strain Y55 identified 9 base pair substitutions that resulted in 6 amino acid changes in nonconserved regions when compared to the published sequence for strain S288C. Plasma membranes of three of the four pma1 mutants contained normal amounts of H(+)-ATPase; membranes from pma1-155 contained enzyme at 62% of the wild-type level. The kinetics of ATP hydrolysis were most strongly altered for enzymes from pma1-105 and pma1-147 which showed changes in both Km and Vmax. A striking pH dependence for these parameters was found for enzyme from pma1-105 which resulted in a precipitous decline in Km and Vmax below pH 6.5. ATP hydrolysis by enzymes from pma1-105 and pma1-147 was insensitive to inhibition by vanadate. These enzymes, in contrast to wild-type and vanadate-sensitive mutant enzymes, were poorly protected from trypsin-induced inactivation by MgATP and vanadate or Pi alone. These results are pertinent to the mechanism of vanadate-induced enzyme inhibition and suggest that Ser-368 and Pro-640 influence the affinity of the phosphate-binding site for Pi. All mutant enzymes catalyzed ATP-induced pH gradient formation following purification and reconstitution into liposomes. Finally, these results further demonstrate the usefulness of hygromycin B as a generalized screening tool for isolating diverse plasma membrane ATPase mutants.

The isoelectric points of most proteins from the extremely halophilic archaebacteria are between 4.0 and 4.65 which agrees with the generally high content of glutamic and aspartic acid in proteins from halobacteria. The subunits from two purified halobacterial membrane enzymes (ATPase and nitrate reductase) behaved differently with respect to isoelectric focusing, silver staining and interaction with ampholytes. Differential behavior was also observed in whole cell proteins from Halobacterium saccharovorum regarding resolution in two-dimensional gels and silver staining. We propose that these differences reflect the existence of two classes of halobacterial proteins, one resembling non-halophilic proteins, and the other possessing unique properties that may be related to salt dependence.

Limited tryptic digestion of fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-labeled (H+-K+)-ATPase from rat resting light gastric membranes produced a soluble 27-kDa polypeptide which retained the fluorescence of the parent enzyme. Its production was markedly enhanced in the presence of an amphiphilic detergent, Zwittergent 3-14, which potently inhibits the ATPase activity. This increase is probably due to protection of certain tryptic cleavage sites through conformational changes of the membrane enzyme by the detergent. The NH2-terminal sequence of the 27-kDa polypeptide corresponded exactly to that beginning at Asn-369 of the cDNA-deduced primary structure of the rat ATPase. The presence of the phosphorylation site, Asp-385, and FITC-labeled Lys-517, which is known to be a part of the ATP-binding site, indicates that the 27-kDa polypeptide contains a major cytoplasmic portion of (H+-K+)-ATPase. Interestingly, the polypeptide was stained with periodate-Schiff's base, indicating its glycoprotein nature. The carbohydrate group attached to the polypeptide seems to include at least an N-linked high-mannose moiety, since the polypeptide showed Con A binding activity as detected with a Con A-biotin/avidin-peroxidase assay on nitrocellulose transblots. Also, its Con A binding activity was inhibited by excess methyl alpha-D-mannopyranoside and disappeared upon treatment of the polypeptide with endoglycosidase H and N-glycanase. Further tryptic action converted the 27-kDa polypeptide to 2 smaller FITC-labeled polypeptides of 25 and 15 kDa, which lost 18 and 96 amino acid residues, respectively, from the NH2 terminus of the parent polypeptide.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

A material with inhibitory action to Na+/K+ ATPase was found in the lens of the ICR/f rat, a recessive hereditary cataractous rat. The material also induced lens opacification in vitro. From the results of amino acid analysis and by secondary ion mass spectroscopy, it was suggested that the material might contain approximately equimolar amounts of four amino acids, ie, aspartic acid, serine, glutamic acid and glycine, and that the molecular weight was 444. These facts suggested that this material with Na+/K+ ATPase inhibitory action might be a peptide. However, there is not yet any corroborating evidence to show whether this peptide is only a single material or not. The peptide significantly increased with aging in the lens of the ICR/f rat until approximately 90 days, when cataract became manifest, but its content decreased thereafter. This study suggests that one of the causes of cataractogenesis in the ICR/f rat might be this peptide, which is transformed in the lens with aging, and also that the peptide might accelerate lens opacification after cataractogenesis.
