In order to understand the molecular mechanism of ouabain resistance in the toad Bufo marinus, Na,K-ATPase alpha and beta subunits have been cloned and their functional properties tested in the Xenopus laevis oocyte expression system. According to sequence comparison between species, alpha 1, beta 1, and beta 3 isoforms were identified in a clonal toad urinary bladder cell line (TBM 18-23). The sequence of the alpha 1 isoform is characterized by two positively charged amino acids (Arg, Lys) at the N-terminal border of the H1-H2 extracellular loop and no charged amino acid at the C terminus, a pattern distinct from the ouabain-resistant rat alpha 1 isoform. The coexpression of alpha 1 beta 1 or alpha 1 beta 3 TBM subunits in the Xenopus oocyte resulted in the expression of identical maximum Na,K-pump currents with identical inhibition constant for ouabain (Ki) (alpha 1 beta 1: 53 +/- 3 microM; n = 7 vs. alpha 1 beta 3: 57 +/- 3.0 microM; n = 8) but distinct potassium half activation constant (K1/2) (alpha 1 beta 1: 0.87 +/- 0.08 mM, n = 16; alpha 1 beta 3: 1.29 +/- 0.07 mM, n = 17; p less than 0.005). We conclude that (i) the TBM alpha 1 isoform is necessary and sufficient to confer the ouabain resistant phenotype; (ii) the beta 3 or beta 1 subunit can associate with the alpha 1 equally well without affecting the ouabain-resistant phenotype; (iii) some specific sequence of the beta subunit can modulate the activation of the Na,K-pump by extracellular potassium ions.

Eight strains carrying amino acid substitutions within the c subunit of the F0F1 ATPase of Escherichia coli have been constructed by using site-directed mutagenesis. Three strains carrying the substitutions Gly-23----Leu, Ala-24----Leu, and Gly-38----Leu, which reside in or near the highly conserved glycine-rich region of the c subunit, are unable to carry out oxidative phosphorylation. Membranes prepared from these strains possess basal levels of ATPase activity. In contrast, strains carrying the substitutions Ile-30----Phe, Gly-33----Leu, Gly-58----Leu, and Lys-34----Val and the Lys-34----Val, Glu-37----Gln double substitution were found to possess a coupled phenotype similar to that of the wild type.

Site-specific mutagenesis was used to analyse the role of the residue, Glu309, in the function of the Ca(2+)-ATPase of frog skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum by substitution with Ala or Lys. At pH 6.0, 100 microM Ca2+ was unable to prevent phosphorylation from Pi, consistent with previous observations on the Ca(2+)-ATPase of rabbit fast twitch muscle [Clarke, D.M., Loo, T.W, Inesi, G. and MacLennan, D.H. (1989) Nature 339, 476-478]. At neutral pH, however, micromolar concentrations of Ca2+ were sufficient to inhibit phosphorylation of the Glu309----Lys mutant from inorganic phosphate, suggesting that at least one high-affinity Ca2+ site was relatively intact in this mutant. The Glu309----Lys mutant was unable to form a phosphoenzyme from ATP at all Ca2+ concentrations studied (up to 12.5 mM), whereas phosphorylation of the Glu309----Ala mutant occurred at 12.5 mM Ca2+, but not at Ca2+ concentrations in the submillimolar range. Kinetic studies demonstrated a reduced rate of dephosphorylation of the E2P intermediate in the Glu309----Lys mutant. A less pronounced stabilization of E2P was observed with the Glu309----Ala mutant, suggesting a possible role of the charge at the position of Glu309 in phosphoenzyme hydrolysis.

Fluorescein 5'-isothiocyanate (FITC) was used to modify the lysine residue in the active site of tonoplast H(+)-ATPase from etiolated mung-bean (Vigna radiata L.) seedlings. FITC caused marked inactivation of the enzyme activities of both membrane-bound and soluble ATPase and its associated H+ translocation. The SDS/PAGE pattern revealed that the FITC-binding site was in the large (A) subunit of ATPase. Inhibition could be substantially prevented by its physiological substrate ATP, pyrophosphate and nucleotides in the decreasing order: ATP greater than pyrophosphate greater than ADP greater than AMP greater than GTP greater than CTP greater than UTP. The mode of inhibition by FITC was competitive with respect to ATP. Loss of ATPase activity followed pseudo-first-order kinetics with a Ki of 0.33 mM, a minimum inactivation half-time of 110 s, and a first-order rate constant of 0.244 s-1. A double-logarithmic plot of apparent rate constant versus FITC concentration gave a slope of 0.913, indicating that inactivation results from reaction of at least one lysine residue at the catalytic site of the large subunit. Labelling studies indicated that the incorporation of approx. 1 mol of FITC/mol of ATPase is sufficient to inhibit ATPase completely. The enhancement and blue shift of emission maxima of FITC after modification of ATPase indicated that the labelled lysine residue was located in a relatively hydrophobic domain.

Limited proteolysis of actin with trypsin removes its two or three C-terminal amino acid residues [Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 81 (1984) 3680-3684]. Carboxypeptidase B-treatment of G- and F-actin previously digested with trypsin revealed that in the first case preferential release of three and in the second two C-terminal amino acid residues takes place. Tryptic removal of three but not two C-terminal amino acid residues of actin causes weakening of its interaction with caldesmon and lowering of the caldesmon-induced inhibitory effect on actomyosin ATPase activity. Therefore, it is concluded that the third amino acid residue from the C terminus of actin, Lys-373, is important for the interaction with caldesmon.

Calponin inhibits the actin-activated ATPase of smooth muscle myosin and thus has been proposed as a thin filament-based regulatory component in smooth muscle. To obtain information on the mechanism of inhibition by calponin we have used chemical modification of actin and cross-linking of actin and subfragment 1. Modification of Lys 61 of actin had no effect on the inhibition by calponin of acto-heavy meromyosin ATPase, i.e. different from tropomyosin-troponin. In addition, modification of the acidic N-terminal region of actin did not impair the ability of calponin to bind to F-actin. Finally, calponin was effective in inhibiting ATPase activity of cross-linked acto-subfragment 1. Therefore the mechanism of inhibition by calponin is distinct from troponin-tropomyosin and caldesmon in that it does not involve either the N-terminal acidic region of actin nor the area around Lys 61 and does not fit a simple steric blocking model.

beta Lys-155 in the glycine-rich sequence of the beta subunit of Escherichia coli F1-ATPase has been shown to be near the gamma-phosphate moiety of ATP by affinity labeling (Ida, K., Noumi, T., Maeda, M., Fukui, T., and Futai, M. (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 5424-5429). For examination of the roles of beta Lys-155 and beta Thr-156, mutants (beta Lys-155-->Ala, Ser, or Thr; beta Thr-156-->Ala, Cys, Asp, or Ser; beta Lys-155/beta Thr-156-->beta Thr-155/beta Lys-156; and beta Thr-156/beta Val-157-->beta Ala-156/beta Thr-157) were constructed, and their properties were studied extensively. The beta Ser-156 mutant was active in ATP synthesis and had approximately 1.5-fold higher membrane ATPase activity than the wild type. Other mutants were defective in ATP synthesis, had < 0.1% of the membrane ATPase activity of the wild type, and showed no ATP-dependent formation of an electrochemical proton gradient. The mutants had essentially the same amounts of F1 in their membranes as the wild type. Purified mutant enzymes (beta Ala-155, beta Ser-155, beta Ala-156, and beta Cys-156) showed low rates of multisite (< 0.02% of the wild type) and unisite (< 1.5% of the wild type) catalyses. The k1 values of the mutant enzymes for unisite catalysis were lower than that of the wild type: not detectable with the beta Ala-156 and beta Cys-156 enzymes and 10(2)-fold lower with the beta Ala-155 and beta Ser-155 enzymes. The beta Thr-156-->Ala or Cys enzyme showed an altered response to Mg2+, suggesting that beta Thr-156 may be closely related to Mg2+ binding. These results suggest that beta Lys-155 and beta Thr-156 are essential for catalysis and are possibly located in the catalytic site, although beta Thr-156 could be replaced by a serine residue.

We introduced mutations to test the function of the conserved amino-terminal region of the gamma subunit from the Escherichia coli ATP synthase (F0F1-ATPase). Plasmid-borne mutant genes were expressed in an uncG strain which is deficient for the gamma subunit (gamma Gln-14-->end). Most of the changes, which were between gamma Ile-19 and gamma Lys-33, gamma Asp-83 and gamma Cys-87, or at gamma Asp-165, had little effect on growth by oxidative phosphorylation, membrane ATPase activity, or H+ pumping. Notable exceptions were gamma Met-23-->Arg or Lys mutations. Strains carrying these mutations grew only very slowly by oxidative phosphorylation. Membranes prepared from the strains had substantial levels of ATPase activity, 100% compared with wild type for gamma Arg-23 and 65% for gamma Lys-23, but formed only 32 and 17%, respectively, of the electrochemical gradient of protons. In contrast, other mutant enzymes with similar ATPase activities (including gamma Met-23-->Asp or Glu) formed H+ gradients like the wild type. Membranes from the gamma Arg-23 and gamma Lys-23 mutants were not passively leaky to protons and had functional F0 sectors. These results suggested that substitution by positively charged side chains at position 23 perturbed the energy coupling. The catalytic sites of the mutant enzymes were still regulated by the electrochemical H+ gradient but were inefficiently coupled to H+ translocation in both ATP-dependent H+ pumping and delta mu H+ driven ATP synthesis.

Arg-210 of the a subunit of the Escherichia coli F0F1-ATPase has been proposed previously as a component of the proton pore. A mutant in which lysine was substituted for Arg-210 was generated and was found to be unable to translocate protons. A plasmid carrying this mutation, along with wild-type genes encoding the c and b subunits, was unusual in that it failed to complement a chromosomal c-subunit mutation on succinate minimal medium. Three revertants on succinate minimal medium contained plasmids that showed complementation with chromosomal c-subunit but not with a-subunit mutations. One of these had a deletion in the a subunit. The other two were point mutations, resulting in the substitution of aspartic acid by Gly-53 and of arginine for Leu-211. The Gly-53 to aspartic acid change implied that Gly-53 and Arg-210 are normally in close proximity. To test this idea further, a series of mutants in which aspartic acid was placed in helix I at positions ranging from 42 to 57 was generated. Full complementation was regained only when the aspartic acid residue was present on the same side of a putative helix as Gly-53 over a span of three turns of the alpha-helix. These results and others suggest modifications of a previously proposed model for the transmembrane helices of the F0 portion of the F0F1-ATPase. The implications of these modifications for the mechanism of proton translocation are discussed.

A novel family of cyclosporin A (CsA) binding proteins was identified by using the biologically active, radioiodinated photoaffinity probe [D-Lys-N epsilon-(4-azido-3-[125I]iodophenyl)propionyl)]8-CsA. In addition to cyclophilin, proteins with molecular masses of 43 kDa and approximately 50-55 kDa were labeled in Jurkat extracts and bovine calf thymus. Sequence analysis of the 43-kDa protein purified from calf thymus and subsequent Western analysis of CsA affinity-purified material from Jurkat extracts identified the 43-kDa component as actin. [D-Lys-N epsilon-(5-dimethylamino-1-naphthalenesulfonyl)]8-CsA, a fluorescent analogue of CsA, was prepared and used to measure the binding constants of cyclosporin derivatives to actin by means of a new fluorescence displacement assay. [D-Lys-N epsilon-(5-dimethylamino-1-naphthalenesulfonyl)]8-CsA and [N delta-t-butoxycarbonyl diaminobutyryl)]8-CsA bind to bovine actin at physiologically relevant concentrations, with dissociation constants of 60 +/- 33 and 570 +/- 380 nM, respectively. Because the ATPase fragment of heat shock cognate 70 (HSC 70) is structurally related to actin, the yeast homologue SSA1 was tested and found to be radiolabeled by the cyclosporin A photoaffinity reagent. The binding constant for [D-Lys-N epsilon-(5-dimethylamino-1-naphthalenesulfonyl)]8-CsA to SSA1 was determined and is 53 +/- 48 nM. These results indicate that actin and the 70-kDa heat shock protein family contain a structurally related domain for binding of cyclosporin A-related peptides.
