The Na,K-ATPase alpha 3 isoform of the catalytic subunit has been isolated from pig kidney microsomes. The procedure employs immunoaffinity chromatography on Sepharose 4B covalently coupled with monospecific antibodies a-II against the synthetic peptide including the putative alpha 3 N-terminus. The structural analysis provides unambiguous proof that the isolated protein corresponds to the third transcript for the alpha 3 isoform. The N-terminal amino acid sequence determined. Met-Gly-Asp-Lys-Lys-Asp-Asp, shows that unlike the alpha 1 and alpha 2 proteins, the mature Na,K-ATPase isoform lacks post-translational proteolytic processing.

Site-specific mutagenesis was used to study the function of a conserved, extracellular aspartic acid residue from the sheep Na,K-ATPase alpha subunit. This amino acid, Asp-121, is the penultimate residue of the first extracellular domain of the alpha subunit. The border residues of this particular extracellular loop of the alpha subunit have been shown to be determinants of ouabain sensitivity (Price, E. M., and Lingrel, J. B. (1988) Biochemistry 27, 8400-8408). In order to determine if Asp-121 is involved in ouabain binding, five different amino acid substitutions at this position were generated. Four of the five mutant alpha subunits, containing either Asn, Ala, Glu, or Ser in place of Asp-121, conferred ouabain resistance to HeLa cells when expressed in those cells. Cloned sublines of cells selected in ouabain were characterized in terms of ouabain-inhibitable cell growth and Na,K-ATPase activity. The cells expressing the mutant Na,K-ATPase alpha subunit containing either Asn, Ala, Glu, or Ser in place of Asp-121 contained a component of Na,K-ATPase activity that was nearly 100-times more resistant to ouabain than the endogenous HeLa (human) or sheep enzyme. Apparently, conservative (Glu for Asp), isosteric (Asn for Asp), and nonconservative (Ala or Ser for Asp) substitutions all significantly decreased ouabain sensitivity. These data suggest that Asp-121 of the sheep Na,K-ATPase alpha subunit participates in the binding interaction between the enzyme and ouabain.

The (Na+ + K+)-activated ATPase catalyzes the K+-activated hydrolysis of 3-O-methylfluorescein phosphate (3OMFP) with a Km of 50 microM, nearly two orders of magnitude lower than the Km for nitrophenyl phosphate, 3 mM. Both ATP and nitrophenyl phosphate are competitors toward 3OMFP with Ki values corresponding to their Km values (for ATP that at the low-affinity sites of the E2 conformation). Enzyme treated with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) such that 60% of the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity is lost still hydrolyzes both 3OMFP and nitrophenyl phosphate: the apparent Km values are increased less than 2-fold and the Vmax is unaffected. ATP still inhibits these K+-phosphatase reactions of the FITC-treated enzyme, and this inhibition can exceed the 40% of residual (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity. Evaluation of a kinetic model indicates that the Ki for ATP is increased about an order of magnitude by FITC-binding. Similar results obtain with trinitrophenyl-ATP (TNP-ATP) as inhibitor, in this case with Ki values in the micromolar range. Finally, FITC treatment increases K+-activated ADPase activity. These observations are interpreted as the fluorescein ring of 3OMFP binding to the adenine pocket of the substrate site, thereby conferring high affinity, just as the fluorescein ring of FITC binding to the adenine pocket in the E1 conformation permits specific linkage of the isothiocyanate chain to a particular lysine, Lys-501. Then, coincident with the transition to the E2 conformation, which bears the low-affinity site for ATP and which catalyzes the K+-phosphatase reaction, the FITC molecule tethered to Lys-501 is pulled from the adenine pocket: allowing 3OMFP and ADP to bind as substrates and ATP and TNP-ATP as inhibitors, albeit in altered conformation. The E1 to E2 transition thus involves not only a change from high to low affinity for ATP, but also a distortion of the adenine pocket and the orientation between Lys-501 and Asp-369, the residue associated with catalysis.

The beta-subunit of dog kidney (Na+ + K+)-ATPase is a sialoglycoprotein and contains three potential N-glycosylation sites. In this study, the oligosaccharide chains of purified dog kidney beta-subunit were labeled with tritium by oxidation with sodium periodate or galactose oxidase followed by NaB3H4 reduction. The beta-subunit was extensively digested by trypsin and the radioactive peptides were purified by HPLC. The enzyme, glycopeptidase A, which catalyzes the removal of N-linked oligosaccharide chains and the conversion of the glycosylated Asn residue to Asp, was used to demonstrate that a number of purified beta-subunit tryptic peptides were glycosylated. Amino-acid analysis of these beta-subunit peptides following glycopeptidase-A treatment revealed the expected Asn to Asp conversion for Asn-157, Asn-192 and Asn-264, demonstrating that all three potential N-glycosylation sites of the dog kidney beta-subunit are glycosylated. In addition, amino-acid sequence data suggest that a disulfide bond exists between Cys-158 and Cys-174.

We have studied a female mongrel dog found in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan. This dog was selected and examined thoroughly because she naturally maintained a high glutathione (GSH) concentration in her erythrocytes and did not exhibit any clinical signs or hematologic disorders. Erythrocytes from this animal demonstrated high K and low Na concentrations, as well as accumulation of the amino acids, glutamic acid, aspartic acid and glutamine. The Na, K-ATPase activity was also markedly elevated and the osmotic fragility of the dog's erythrocytes was found to be significantly increased. Crossbreeding of our dog with a normal dog and also with a heterozygous carrier dog revealed that the genetic abnormality possessed by our dog is transmitted as an autosomal recessive trait. All of the clinical data obtained from studying this animal strongly suggest that it possesses a genetic trait similar to that of the HK dogs previously described by Maede.

Na,K-ATPases from various species differ greatly in their sensitivity to cardiac glycosides such as ouabain. The sheep and human enzymes are a thousand times more sensitive than the corresponding ones from rat and mouse. To define the region of the alpha 1 subunit responsible for this differential sensitivity, chimeric cDNAs of sheep and rat were constructed and expressed in ouabain-sensitive HeLa cells. The construct containing the amino-terminal half of the rat alpha 1 subunit coding region and carboxyl-terminal half of the sheep conferred the ouabain-resistant phenotype to HeLa cells while the reverse construct did not. This indicates that the determinants involved in ouabain sensitivity are located in the amino-terminal half of the Na,K-ATPase alpha subunit. By use of site-directed mutagenesis, the amino acid sequence of the first extracellular domain (H1-H2) of the sheep alpha 1 subunit, Gln-Ala-Ala-Thr-Glu-Glu-Glu-Pro-Gln-Asn-Asp-Asn, was changed to that of the rat, Arg-Ser-Ala-Thr-Glu-Glu-Glu-Pro-Pro-Asn-Asp-Asp. When expressed in HeLa cells, this mutated sheep alpha 1 construct, like the rat/sheep chimera, was able to confer ouabain resistance to these cells. Furthermore, similar results were observed when HeLa cells were transfected with a sheep alpha 1 cDNA containing only two amino acid substitutions. This double mutation was a Gln-111----Arg and Asn-122----Asp change at the amino terminus and carboxyl terminus, respectively, of the H1-H2 extracellular region. The resistant cells, whether transfected with the rat alpha 1 cDNA, the rat/sheep chimera, or the mutant sheep alpha 1 cDNAs, exhibited identical biochemical characteristics including ouabain-inhibitable cell growth, 86Rb+ uptake, and Na,K-ATPase activity.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

A mutant affected in the b subunit (coded by the uncF gene) of the F1F0-ATPase in Escherichia coli was isolated by a localized mutagenesis procedure in which a plasmid carrying the unc genes was mutagenized in vivo. The biochemical properties of cells carrying the uncF515 allele were examined in a strain carrying the allele on a multicopy plasmid and a mutator-induced polar unc mutation on the chromosome. The strain carrying the mutant unc allele was uncoupled with respect to oxidative phosphorylation. Membrane-bound ATPase activity was very low or absent, and membranes were somewhat proton permeable. It was concluded that the F0 sector was assembled. Determination of the DNA sequence of the uncF515 allele showed it differed from wild type in that a G----A substitution occurred at position 392, resulting in glycine being replaced by aspartate at position 131. Genetic complementation tests indicated that the uncF515 allele complemented the uncF476 allele (Gly 9----Asp). Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis of membrane preparations indicated that the uncF515 and uncF476 alleles interrupted assembly of the F1F0-ATPase at different stages.

A model for the mechanism of ATP synthase was proposed previously (Cox, G.B., Jans, D.A., Fimmel, A.L., Gibson, F. and Hatch, L. (1984) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 768, 201-208) in which the b subunit of the Fo of Escherichia coli rotated. The driving force was proposed to be an interaction between two charged residues in the membrane, namely, Lys-23 of the b subunit and Asp-61 of the c subunit. To test this proposal the Lys-23 of the b subunit was replaced by threonine using site-directed mutagenesis. The resulting mutant, although it had an impairment in the assembly of the F1F0-ATPase, was normal with respect to oxidative phosphorylation. The role of the a subunit, which had been previously proposed to be a structural one, was reassessed by examination of the possible secondary and tertiary structure of the analogous proteins from several sources. Not only did these subunits appear to have very similar structures, but in each there was a highly conserved helical arm on one of the transmembrane helices which could form a proton channel if it interacted with the Asp-61 of the c subunit. A revised model is therefore presented in which five transmembrane helices from the a subunit and two from the b subunit are surrounded by a ring of c subunits. The highly conserved nature of the structures of the a, b and c subunits from various organisms suggests that the model may have relevance for ATP synthases from bacterial plasma membranes, mitochondria and chloroplasts.

Mutant genes for the beta subunit of H+-translocating ATPase (F0F1) were cloned from Escherichia coli strains isolated in this laboratory. Determination of their nucleotide sequence revealed four missense mutations (strain KF39, Glu-41----Lys; strain KF16 and KF42, Glu-185----Lys; strain KF48, Gly-223----Asp; KF26 and 4 other strains, Ser-292----Phe). Two nonsense mutants (strain KF40, Gln-361----end; strain KF20, Gln-397----end) were also identified. Glu-41, Glu-185, and Ser-292 are conserved in the amino acid sequences of the beta subunits so far studied, and Gly-223, Gln-361, and Gln-397 are conserved in beta subunits from bacteria and mitochondria, but not in those from chloroplasts. The amounts of F1 subunits in the membranes of these strains were studied by immunochemical assay and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. In the mutants studied, the amounts of alpha and beta subunits in the membranes were 69-21 and 46-2%, respectively, of the amounts in wild-type membranes, the amount depending on the strain. No delta and epsilon subunits were detected in membranes of a missense mutant KF16, although reduced amounts of alpha and beta subunits could be detected, suggesting that the F1 portion may not be connected to F0 through the delta and epsilon subunits. The altered residues in missense mutants or missing domains in nonsense mutants may be important for the subunit-subunit interactions or assembly of the entire complex. Genetic experiments on introduction of suppressor tRNA into strains KF40 and KF20 suggested that F1 could be active even when residue 361 or 397 was replaced by a Ser, Leu, or Tyr residue.

A mutation of the b subunit of the Escherichia coli proton translocating ATPase was previously described (Porter, A. C. G., Kumamoto, C., Aldape, K., and Simoni, R. D. (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 8182-8187). This mutation, which causes substitution of aspartic acid for glycine at position 9 (basp9), results in loss of function of the ATPase complex. In this paper we describe the isolation and characterization of two mutations that partially suppress the effects of the basp9 alteration. The suppressor mutations cause amino acid substitutions at position 240 of the a subunit. Membranes derived from strains carrying a suppressor mutation and the basp9 mutation exhibited ATP-dependent proton translocating activity.
