Synthetic polypeptides were employed as substrates in kinetic analyses of the reaction mechanism for the catalytic subunit of a cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (ATP:protein phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.37) from calf thymus. This enzyme preparation was shown to catalyze the transfer of phosphate from ATP to histone H1 from calf thymus, as well as to two synthetic polypeptides, Arg-Lys-Ala-Ser-Gly-Pro (H1-6) and Arg-Arg-Lys-Ala-Ser-Gly-Pro (H1-7), corresponding to the amino acid sequence about serine-38 in calf H1. A related, basic heptapeptide corresponding to a sequence from pig liver pyruvate kinase, Leu-Arg-Arg-Ala-Ser-Leu-Gly (K), was also a substrate. The stoichiometry of peptide phosphorylation was established in each case as the transfer of 1 mol of phosphate from the gamma position of MgATP to the serine hydroxyl of 1 mol of the peptide. Steady-state, initial-velocity, kinetic parameters were determined for each substrate, using various concentrations of ATP. Under the conditions used, all synthetic peptides reacted with greater maximum velocities than whole histone H1. Nevertheless, the K(m) for H1, 54 muM, was lower than the K(m) values of the synthetic substrates. The most efficient substrate was peptide K, which had a V(max) of 50.6 mumol/min per mg of kinase and a K(m) of 63 muM. In the absence of peptide substrate no ATPase activity was detectable at a sensitivity of 0.05% of the rate of peptide phosphorylation, suggesting that ATP is not cleaved to form an unstable phosphoenzyme complex. The data are consistent with a sequential reaction mechanism involving a ternary complex between enzyme, polypeptide substrate, and ATP.

To distinguish ligand-induced structural states of the (Na+--K+)-ATPase, the purified membrane-bound enzyme isolated from rat kidneys was digested with trypsin in the presence of various combinations of Na+, K+, Mg++ and ATP. It was found that first the large and then the small polypeptide chain of the (Na+--K+)-ATPase was degraded, indicating that the lysine and arginine residues of the large chain are more exposed than are those of the small one. The (Na+--K+)-ATPase activity was inactivated in parallel with the degradation of the large polypeptide chain. After the degradation of the large polypeptide chain, about 75% of the (Na+--K+)-ATPase protein remained bound to the membrane, demonstrating that the split protein segments were only partially released. It was found that the combinations of ATP, Mg++, Na+ and K+ present during trypsin digestion influenced the time course and degree of degradation of the (Na+--K+)-ATPase protein. The degradations of the large and the small polypeptide chain were affected in parallel. Thus, certain ATP and ligand combinations influenced neither the degradation of the large nor the degradation of the small polypeptide chain, whereas by other combinations of ATP and ligands the degree of susceptibility of both polypeptide chains to trypsin was equally increased or reduced. In the absence of ATP the time course of trypsin digestion of the (Na+--K+)-ATPase was the same, whether Na+ or K+ was present. With low ATP concentrations (e.g., 0.1 mM), however, binding of Na+ or K+ led to different degradation patterns of the enzyme. If a high concentration of ATP (e.g. 10 mM) was present, Na+ and K+ also influenced the degradation pattern of the (Na+--K+)-ATPase, but differentially compared to that at low ATP concentrations, since the effects of Na+ and K+ were reversed. Furthermore, it was found that the degradation of the small chain was only influenced by certain combinations of ATP, Mg++, Na+ and K+ if the large chain was intact when the ligands were added to the enzyme. The described results demonstrate structural alterations of the (Na+--K+)-ATPase complex which are supposed to include a synchronous protrusion or retraction of both (Na+--K+)-ATPase subunits. The data further suggest that ATP and other ligands primarily alter the structure of the large (Na+--K+)-ATPase subunit. This structural alteration is presumed to lead to a synchronous movement of the small subunit of the enzyme. The structural state of the (Na+--K+)-ATPase is regulated by binding of Na+ or K+ to the enzyme-ATP complex. The effects of Na+ and K+ on the (Na+--K+)-ATPase structure are modulated by the ATP binding to "high affinity" and to "low affinity" ATP binding sites.

The ATPase preparations from the hog thyroid was preincubated with various amounts of trypsin. The activity of Mg-ATPase was consistently elevated. On the contrary, the Na, K-ATPase activity decreased with increasing amounts of trypsin. The effects were similar to those which were observed in the enzyme preparations treated with basis polyamino acids as previously reported. This phenomenon seemed to be specific in the preparations from the thyroid. The Mg-dependent activity was increased after pretreatment with trypsin or poly-L-lysine (PLL) when CTP, ITP and UTP were used as substrate. Thus the substrate specificity of Mg-ATPase was low. The enzyme-kinetics using ATP as substrate showed that the increase in activity was due to an increase in Vmax and not to a change in Km. The activity of Mg-ATPase was increased even after 30 min of preincubation with trypsin, while the Na, K-ATPase activity was almost diminished. These results suggest that the activity of Mg-ATPase in the preparation from the thyroid is specifically changed by the modification of the molecular environment of the enzyme with trypsin or basic polyamino acids.

The ATP-energy transducing system in membranes of Escherichia coli is inhibited by dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. The protein component of this complex with which carbodiimides covalently react to inhibit function was previously identified by labeling wild type and dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-resistant mutants with dicyclohexyl[14C]carbodiimide (Fillingame, R. H. (1975) J. Bacteriol. 124, 870-883). This specific carbodiimide-reactive protein has now been purified. The protein was extracted from the membrane with chloroform:methanol and chromatographed on DEAE-cellulose and hydroxypropyl Spehadex G-50 in this sulvent mixture. The resultant 700-fold purification yielded a protein that was homogeneous on dodecyl sulfate-acrylamide gel electrophoresis and virtually free of phospholipid. It remained soluble in neutral chloroform:methanol throughout the purification procedure. The amino acid composition of the purified protein was extraordinary in that only 16% of the amino acids present could be considered polar. Histidine, serine, cysteine, and tryptophan were not found. Abnormally high contents of methionine, glycine, alanine, and leucine were present. One mole of lysine and threonine were found/mole of dicyclohexyl[14C]carbodiimide bound. The minimum molecular weight based on the amino acid composition was 8400. The specific carbodiimide-reactive protein has also been purified without prior modification by dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. The unmodified protein eluted from DEAE-cellulose at a higher salt concentration than the dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-modified form, which suggested that the reaction with the carbodiimide neutralized the negative charge. Only one-third of the total carbodiimide-reactive protein in the membrane was modified by dicyclohexylcarbodiimide under conditions which maximally inhibited adenosine triphosphatase activity. These results rais the possibility that the carbodiimide-reactive protein may be present as an oligomer in the energy-transducing complex. The purification of the unmodified carbodiimide-reactive protein should permit assessment of tis biological function, particularly its role in the protein-translocation process that is catalyzed by this energy-transducing complex.

The molecular biological approach has provided important information toward understanding the complexities of the F0F1 ATPase. This article focuses on our recent results on the ATPase catalytic site contained in the beta subunit and the role of the gamma subunit in regulation of proton transport. We used a combination of affinity labeling and mutagenesis to locate several residues of the alpha and beta subunits in the catalytic site. Adenosine triphosphopyridoxal (AP3-PL) labeled beta Lys-155, beta Lys-201 and alpha Lys-201, suggesting that they are near the gamma-phosphate moiety of ATP. Turning to a mutagenesis approach we demonstrated that the two conserved residues, beta Lys-155 and beta Thr-156 in the glycine-rich sequence, are essential for catalysis. Finally, using pseudorevertant analysis, we positioned residue beta Gly-149 (also in the glycine-rich sequence) in proximity to beta Ser-174, beta Glu-192 (binding site for DCCD), and beta Val-198 (only three residues away from the AP3-PL binding site, beta Lys-201). Genetic studies suggested that the gamma subunit plays a role in regulation of catalysis and its coupling with proton conduction. We found that four mutations in the carboxyl-terminal region (gamma Gln-269-->Leu, gamma Gly-275-->Lys, gamma Thr-277-->end, or frameshift) had similar membrane ATPase activities but different ATP-dependent proton pumping and growth by oxidative phosphorylation. These results suggested a perturbation in the coupling between catalysis and proton translocation. We were able to clearly define the "uncoupling" by introducing mutations in the amino-terminal region of the gamma subunit. We were led to gamma Met-23-->Lys and Arg which resulted in an enzyme still regulated by delta microH+, but with profoundly inefficient coupling between ATPase catalytic sites and proton translocation in both ATP-dependent proton pumping and delta microH(+)-driven ATP synthesis. Second-site mutations in the carboxyl-terminal region of the gamma subunit reversed this effect.

Lysine 480 has been suggested to be essential for ATP binding and hydrolysis by Na,K-ATPase because it is labeled by reagents that are thought to react with the ATPase from within the ATP binding site. In order to test this hypothesis, Lys-480 was changed to Ala, Arg, or Glu by site-directed mutagenesis, and the resultant Na,K-ATPase molecules were expressed in yeast cells. The ATPase activity of each of the mutants was similar to the activity of the wild type enzyme indicating that Lys-480 is not essential for ATP hydrolysis. The binding of [3H]ouabain in both ATP-dependent and inorganic phosphate-dependent reactions was used to determine the apparent affinity of each mutant for ATP or Pi. The K0.5(ATP) for ouabain binding to phosphoenzyme formed from ATP was 1-3 microM for Lys-480, Arg-480, and Ala-480, whereas for Glu-480 the K0.5(ATP) was 18 microM. The K0.5(Pi) for ouabain binding to phosphoenzyme formed from inorganic phosphate was 16-28 microM for Lys-480, Arg-480, and Ala-480, but was 74 microM for Glu-480. The Kd for ouabain binding was similar for both the wild type and mutant Na,K-ATPase molecules (3-6 nM). These data indicate that the substitution of an acidic amino acid for lysine at position 480 appears to reduce the affinity of the Na,K-ATPase for both ATP and phosphate. It is concluded that Lys-480 is not essential for ATP binding or hydrolysis or for phosphate binding by Na,K-ATPase but is likely to be located within the ATP binding site of the Na,K-ATPase.

Site-directed polyclonal antibodies were generated against four oligopeptides derived from the rat alpha-isoforms of Na(+)-K(+)-adenosinetriphosphatase (i.e., Na(+)-K+ pump) and were used to assess the phylogenetic conservation of the target regions. The first antibody was directed against a region near the phosphorylation site that is conserved among alpha-subunits from numerous species. The remaining antibodies were specific for the isoforms of alpha and recognized a region near the fluorescein isothiocyanate-reactive lysine of the adenine binding site. Immunoblots of protein from a number of species probed with these antibodies revealed dramatic differences in the conservation of the target sequences. The region derived from alpha 1 was found in four of the six mammals screened. In contrast, the analogous region derived from alpha 2 was found in all the screened mammals. Most conserved was the region derived from alpha 3, which was found in all the screened mammals as well as in chickens, catfish, dogfish, and sea slugs. Conservation of the region from alpha 3 suggests functional significance and implies that strong selective pressures have discouraged mutational change. Results from the immunoblots further suggest that isoforms are present in all vertebrates.

The PriA replication protein of Escherichia coli (formerly replication factor Y or protein n') is multifunctional. It is a site-specific, single-stranded DNA-dependent ATPase (dATPase), a 3'----5' DNA helicase, and guides the ordered assembly of the primosome, a mobile, multiprotein DNA replication priming/helicase complex. Although PriA is not absolutely required for viability, priA null mutant cells grow very slowly, have poor viability, and form extensive filaments. In order to assess which of the multiple activities of PriA are required for normal replication and growth, site-directed mutagenesis was employed to introduce single amino acid substitutions for the invariant lysine within the consensus nucleotide-binding motif found in PriA. Biochemical characterization of the representative purified mutant PriA proteins revealed them to be completely deficient in nucleotide hydrolysis, incapable of translocation along a single-stranded DNA binding protein-coated single-stranded DNA template, and unable to manifest the 3'----5' DNA helicase activity of wild-type PriA. These mutant proteins were, however, capable of catalyzing the assembly of active primosomes in vitro. Furthermore, when supplied in trans to insertionally inactivated priA cells, plasmids containing a copy of these mutant priA genes restored the wild-type growth rate, viability, and cell morphology. Based on these results, a model for PriA function in vivo is discussed.

cDNAs for mutant alpha-subunits of Torpedo californica (Na,K)ATPase variously truncated at the N-terminal end were constructed and transcribed in vitro. Each of the mRNAs thus synthesized was co-injected into Xenopus oocytes together with mRNA for wild-type beta-subunit. Truncation of the alpha-subunit at trypsin accessible site T2(removal of the N-terminal 36 residues, alpha delta K37) led to a decrease in ouabain-sensitive ATPase activity and ouabain-binding capacity, leaving the amount of immunoprecipitable alpha-subunit unchanged. The Km values for Na+ and K+ of alpha delta K37 were about 10mM and 2mM, respectively, and fall in the same range for the wild-type ATPase. Truncation of the alpha-subunit leaving lysine-54(alpha delta K54) or alanine-79(alpha delta A79) resulted in the loss of the ATPase activity as well as a substantial decrease in the amount of immunoprecipitable alpha-subunit. Since the beta-subunit assembles with and thereby stabilizes the alpha-subunit, which is otherwise degraded rapidly, these results suggest that the segment of the alpha-subunit between lysine-37 and lysine-54 is involved in the assembly with the beta-subunit leading to the formation of the stable and active alpha beta complex.

The sodium pump or Na,K-ATPase, maintains the Na+ and K+ gradients across eukaryotic cell membranes at the expense of ATP. Incubation of purified canine renal Na,K-ATPase with 4-acetamido-4'-isothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (SITS) inhibited the ATPase activity. Both the labeling of the protein and the loss of ATPase activity were prevented by co-incubation with ADP (acting as an ATP analog) or KCl. Only the alpha-subunit was labeled by SITS. The alpha-subunit from the inhibited enzyme was extensively digested with trypsin, and SITS-labeled peptides were purified by reverse-phase HPLC and sequenced. The amino acid sequence determined, His-Leu-Leu-Val-Met-X-Gly-Ala-Pro-Glu, indicated that SITS modifies Lys-501 (X) on the alpha-subunit of Na,K-ATPase.
