Oxidative phosphorylation in Escherichia coli membrane vesicles with a right-side-out orientation and loaded with ADP was investigated. Substrates of the electron transport chain could energize the phosphorylation of ADP, with the order of effectiveness being D-lactate greater than reduced phenazinemethosulfate greater than succinate greater than reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. Inhibitors of D-lactate oxidation, proton conductors, and inhibitor of the Mg2+ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3) all inhibited oxidative phosphorylation when coupled to D-lactate oxidation. ATP synthesis was absent in membrane vesicles prepared from a mutant strain lacking the Mg2+ATPase. Valinomycin or nigericin partially inhibited oxidative phosphorylation in the presence of potassium. Valinomycin plus nigericin completely inhibited ATP synthesis. The effect of various agents on the respiration-dependent establishment of a transmembrane pH gradient was also examined. NaCN and carbonyl cyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone inhibited the establishment of a pH gradient while dicyclohexylcarbodiimide had no effect. These results are in good agreement with a chemiosmotic model for oxidative phosphorylation.

Membrane vesicles from Azotobacter vinelandii O prepared by osmotic lysis of spheroplasts in tris (hydroxymethyl) aminomethane/acetate buffer (pH 7.8) contain a latent adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase). The ATPase can be activated when the vesicles are incubated in the presence of an electron donor (D-lactate) and a mixture of adenosine diphosphate and inorganic phosphate or by controlled treatment with trypsin. After the ATPase is activated, the membrane vesicles in the presence of adenosine triphosphate accumulate calcium but not glucose or rubidium (in the presence of valinomycin). ATP-dependent calcium uptake follows Michaelis-Menten kinetics with a Km of 48 muM and a Vmax of 20 nmol/min/mg of membrane protein and is highly specific for calcium over cations magnesium, barium, lanthanum, sodium, potassium, and lithium. The calcium accumulated in the presence of ATP is freely exchangeable with external calcium and is rapidly released in the presenceof uncouplers or ATPase inhibitors. Calcium uptake in the presenceof ATP is blocked by dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, ADP, p-chloromercuriphenylsulfonate, by the proton-conducting ionophores m-chlorophenylcarbonylcyanide hydrazone, nigericin, monensin, and gramicidin D, but not by potassium cyanide, anoxia, or valinomycin (in the presence of potassium). Measurements of the external pH of vesicle suspensions reveal that protons are actively taken up by the membranes during hydrolysis of ATP. These results suggest that vesicles prepared under these conditions have a topology which is inverted with respect to the intact cell and that calcium is accumulated by means of proton antiport.

Preillumination of Rhodospirillum rubrum chromatophores with strong, far-red light in the presence of phenazine methosulfate under non-phosphorylation conditions results in a selective, irreversible inactivation (typically about 70%) of photophosphorylation and of uncoupler-stimulated dark ATPase. The time course of the photoinactivation is similar to the light-on kinetics of the light-induced proton uptake in the absence of ADP. Only little photoinactivation occurs when the uncoupler carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenyl hydrazone is present or when phenazine methosulfate is absent during the preillumination, indicating that the reaction occurs only when the membrane is energized. Phosphorylation conditions offer a practically complete protection against the photoinactivation. Inorganic phosphate, Mg2+ or ADP do not provide a significant protection against the photoinactivation, nor does ATP. The pH-dependence of the reaction(s) leading to photoinactivation may indicate that a partial reaction of the photophosphorylation process (perhaps only a conformational change of the coupling factor) precedes the photoinactivation.

Transitional states of Candida utilis BKM Y-1668 were found during its growth in conditions of chemostat at D of 0.1 hr(-1) and glycerol limit after a shock caused by an extreme pH value (2.2). The optical density of the cells, the amount of dry biomass and protein, the activity of respiration, the content of ATP, and the activity of ATPase decreased, the character of the decrease being that of damped oscillations. Qualitative changes were detected in the activity of respiration, oxygen uptake was not inhibited by cyanide. More glycerol and phosphorus are utilized in processes of vital activity. Therefore, a sharp change of pH values causes profound changes in the metabolism of the yeast cell.

A vesicular microsomal fraction isolated from hog fundic mucosa demonstrates the capacity to take up equal amounts of RB+ and Cl-. The amount of the Rb+ uptake is sensitive to the extravesicular osmolarity, and rate of uptake is sensitive to temperature. 86Rb+ efflux is dependent upon the cation composition of the diluting solution. ATP, but not beta-gamma methylene ATP, induces a reversible efflux of 86Rb+ from loaded vesicles, and this is dependent upon a functional K+-ATPase. The ATP induced efflux is not affected by CCCP (carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone) or TCS (tetrachlorosalicylanilide) nor by lipid soluble ions or valinomycin. Nigericin inhibits the efflux by 40%. Uptake of the lipid soluble ion 14C-SCN- has been demonstrated and is enhanced by ATP only in the presence of valinomycin. The results are consistent with a neutral or isopotential exchange of H+ for Rb+ mediated by K+-ATPase.

When the two main energy yielding pathways, respiration and the membrane ATPase of Escherichia coli are poisoned, the lactose permease is unable to accomplish accumulative transport of thiogalactosides, but the efflux of preloaded substrate can be coupled to a transiently uphill transport of exogenous substrate. This transient uphill transport, called overshoot has been reexamined with the possibility of an obligate H+ cotransport in mind. Overshoot can be diminished but not suppressed by a proton-conducting uncoupler, carbonyl cyanide m chlorophenylhydrazone, (CCCP) and by a liposoluble cation, triphenyl-methyl phosphonium (TPMP+). The effect of other factors, such as temperature, amount of permease and pH were also explored. The overshoot was found to decrease with increasing pH, until at pH 8 it became negligible. This is in sharp contrast with the relatively flat pH dependence of uphill and downhill transport in unpoisoned cells. CCCP and TPMP+ had no inhibitory effect on the overshoot at pH 6 and below.

31P nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of glycolyzing, anaerobic Escherichia coli cells and their perchloric acid extracts were obtained at 145.7 MHz. Time-dependent intracellular concentrations of nucleoside di- and triphosphates, Pi, and sugar phosphates were measured during glycolysis with 2-min resolution, while intracellular and extra-cellular pH values were monitored simultaneously. Upon glucose addition, anaerobic E. coli cells rapidly produce acids and develop a transmembrane pH gradient (delta pH). Glycolysis rates were calculated from the changes in the external pH. It was found that glycolysis rates are strongly dependent on internal pH, sharply decreasing when the pH drops below approximately 7.2. The ATPase inhibitor, dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD), prevented NTP hydrolysis and inhibited delta pH formation. The uncoupler, carbonyl cyanide p-triflouromethoxyphenyl hydrazone (FCCP), drastically reduced both the delta pH and the NTP level. When the cells were previously treated with DCCD, FCCP collapsed the delta pH while the NTP levels remained high. It is concluded that ATP produced by glycolysis is hydrolyzed by the membrane ATPase to generate a delta pH and that FCCP stimulates ATP hydrolysis by ATPase and collapses the proton gradient.

Exogenous and endogenously generated reduced pyridine nucleotides caused marked stimulation of O(2) uptake when added to treponemal cell-free extracts, which indicated that terminal electron transport was coupled to the consumption of O(2). Oxidation of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) was shown to correlate stoichiometrically with O(2) reduction, suggesting that NADH was being oxidized through a mainstream respiratory chain dehydrogenase. Oxygen evolution in treponemal extracts was observed after the completion of O(2) uptake which was stimulated by exogenous NADH and endogenously generated reduced NAD phosphate. Oxygen evolution was inhibited by both cyanide and pyruvate, which was consistent with O(2) release from H(2)O(2) by catalase. The addition of exogenous H(2)O(2) to treponemal extracts caused rapid O(2) evolution characteristic of a catalase reaction. A spectrophotometric assay was used to measure ATP formation in T. pallidum cell-free extracts that were stimulated with NADH. P/O ratios from 0.5 to 1.1 were calculated from the amounts of ATP formed versus NADH oxidized. Phosphorylating activity was dependent on P(i) concentration and was sensitive to cyanide, N, N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, and carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenyl hydrazone. Adenine nucleotide pools of T. pallidum were measured by the firefly luciferin-luciferase assay. Shifts in adenine nucleotide levels upon the addition of NADH to cell-free extracts were impossible to evaluate due to the presence of NAD(+) nucleosidase. However, when whole cells, previously incubated under an atmosphere of 95% N(2)-5% CO(2), were sparged with air, ATP and ADP levels increased, while AMP levels decreased. The shift was attributed to both oxidative phosphorylation and to the presence of an adenylate kinase activity. T. pallidum was also found to possess an Mg(2+) - and Ca(2+) -stimulated ATPase activity which was sensitive to N, N' -dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. These data indicated a capability for oxidative phosphorylation by T. pallidum.

The effects of ATP, Mg(2+), and various agents on pH gradient, membrane potential, and catecholamine transport across membranes of intact bovine chromaffin vesicles were investigated. Methylamine and thiocyanate (SCN(-)) distributions across the vesicle membrane were used to estimate the H(+) concentration gradient and membrane potential, respectively. The H(+) concentration ratio (intravesiculanmedium) equals 16 when the medium pH is 6.9 and is unaltered by ATP and Mg(2+). In the absence of ATP and Mg(2+), the steady-state intravesicular S(14)CN(-) concentration is lower than the medium concentration. ATP and Mg(2+) cause an increased influx and a decreased efflux of SCN(-) that results in SCN(-) being concentrated in the vesicles 6- to 8-fold over the medium. The findings are consistent with an ATP,Mg(2+)-induced potential of approximately 50 mV (intravesicular side positive). Carbonyl cyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone (FCCP), a H(+) translocater, and N-ethylmaleimide (NEM), a sulfhydryl reagent, decrease the SCN(-) ratio and, thus, the membrane potential in the presence of ATP and Mg(2+). They have no effect on the H(+) concentration gradient. The rate of catecholamine uptake into vesicles is increased 4- to 6-fold by ATP and Mg(2+). The ATP,Mg(2+)-stimulated uptake is inhibited by FCCP and NEM over the same concentration ranges that reduce the SCN(-) distribution (membrane potential). FCCP increases and NEM decreases vesicular membrane ATPase activity. Thus, catecholamine uptake is correlated to an inside-positive membrane potential, and not to ATPase activity. If catecholamine uptake is coupled to membrane potential, then a charged species must be involved in the transport mechanism. Reserpine and rotenone inhibit catecholamine influx but have no effect on the H(+) electrochemical gradient; they probably act at a step before coupling to the membrane potential (or the H(+) electrochemical gradient). Atractyloside, an inhibitor of nucleotide transport, has no effects on catecholamine transport or the H(+) electrochemical gradient.

Purified chondrocytic alkaline phosphatase (orthophosphoric-monoester phosphohydrolase (alkaline optimum), EC 3.1.3.1) from bovine fetal epiphyseal cartilage hydrolyzes a variety of phosphate esters as well as ATP and inorganic pyrophosphate. Optimal activities for p-nitrophenyl phosphate, ATP and inorganic pyrophosphate are found at pH 10.5, 10.0 and 8.5, respectively. The latter two substrates exhibit substrate inhibition at high concentrations. p-Nitrophenyl phosphate demonstrates decreasing pH optima with decreasng substrate concentration. Heat inactivation studies indicate that both phosphorolytic and pyrophosphorolytic cleavage occur at the same site on the enzyme. Mg2+ (0.1-10.0 mM) and Mn2+ (0.01-0.1 mM) show a small stimulation of p-nitrophenyl phosphate-splitting activity at pH 10.5. Levamisole, Pi, CN-, Zn2+ and L-phenylalanine are all reversible inhibitors of the phosphomonoesterase activity. Pi is a competitive inhibitor with a Ki of 10.0 mM. Levamisole and Zn2+ are potent non-competitive inhibitors with inhibition constants of 0.05 and 0.04 mM, respectively. The chondrocytic alkaline phosphatase is inhibited irreversibly by Be2+, EDTA, EGTA, ethane-1-hydroxydiphosphonate, dichloromethane diphosphonate, L-cysteine, phenyl-methylsulfonyl fluoride, N-ethylmaleimide and iodoacetamide. NaCL, KCL and Na2SO4 at 0.5-1.0 M inhibit the enzyme. At pH 8.5, the cleavage of inorganic pyrophosphate (pyrophosphate phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.1) by the chondrocytic enzyme is slightly enhanced by low levels of Mg2+ and depressed by concentrations higher than 1mM. Ca2+ show only inhibition. Similar effects of Mg2+ and Ca2+ on the associated ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.1.6.3) activity were observed. Arrhenius studies using p-nitrophenyl phosphate and AMP as substrates have accounted for the ten-fold difference in V in terms of small differences in both the enthalpies and entropies of activation which are 700 cal/mol and 2.3 cal/degree per mol, respectively.
