The transport processes for uridine, deoxycytidine, uracil, adenine and hypoxanthine require an energy source and are active under anaerobic or aerobic conditions. Inhibitory effects of
cyanide
, arsenate, carbonylcyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone, 2,4-dinitrophenol and N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide on the transport of uridine and deoxycytidine differ from the corresponding effects on the transport of uracil, adenine and hypoxanthine. The nature of these inhibitory effects supports the conclusion that uridine and deoxycytidine transport is energized either by electron transport or by ATP hydrolysis via
(Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase
. The transport or uracil, adenine and hypoxanthine is dependent upon ATP or some high energy phosphate derivative of ATP, but is independent of (Ca2+ + Mg+)-
ATPase
and electron transport. Uptake of the ribose moiety of uridine by a mutant of Escherichia coli B, which lacks the transport system for uracil and intact uridine, is neither stimulated by energy sources nor inhibited by various inhibitors of energy metabolism under either aerobic or anaerobic conditions.

Anaerobiosis, various respiratory inhibitors and certain agents altering cellular energetics profoundly affect the staphylocidal action of the cationic proteins from rabbit polymorphonuclear leucocytes. It is suggested that sensitivity to these proteins depends on the structure of the cell membrane as influenced by (1) the oxidation level of the cytochrome chain and (2) its energized state. Agents such as amytal and rotenone, which cause a block at the beginning of the chain and would increase its oxidation level, enhance killing, whereas those causing a block in or at the end of the chain, such a 2-n-heptyl-4-hydroxyquinoline-N-oxide,
cyanide
and anaerobiosis, which would cause reduction of a part or whole of the chain, prevent killing. Among agents altering the energized state of the membrane, dicyclohexyl-carbodi-imide, an
ATPase
inhibitor, does not prevent killing, whereas 2,4-dinitrophenol, carbonylcyanide-trifluoromethoxy-phenylhydrazone and 5-Cl, 3-t-butyl, 2'-Cl, 4'-NO2-salicylanilide, all uncouplers and ionophores for a specific ion, do prevent killing, although gramicidin, a relatively nonspecific ionophore, does not. The paper also contains an extension of previous work on the effect of iron and haematin, to include various other iron compounds and haematin derivatives.

Differences exist in the coupling of energy to transport of glycine and phenylalanine in aerobically grown cells of Escherichia coli. Energy derived from respiration, although involved in both uptake systems, is not employed identically as shown by kinetic effects of
cyanide
and anoxia and by temperature dependencies. Additional evidence for aerobic differences was provided by the effects of azide which greatly decreased initial rates of uptake of glycine but not phenylalanine. The effect on glycine uptake was not due to uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation or to a decrease in respiration rate. Evidence for anaerobic differences was provided by the addition of either glucose or ferricyanide to cell suspensions containing glycerol, thereby maintaining anoxic uptake of phenylalanine, but not glycine, at the aerobic level. Ferricyanide stimulation required a functional Ca, Mg-
adenosine 5'-triphosphatase
and involved cell metabolism. Ferricyanide was also found to produce differential stimulation of other amino acid transport systems; tyrosine, tryptophan and leucine uptakes were stimulated whereas those for alanine, proline, threonine, and glutamine were relatively unaffected.

1. The biochemical basis of the slowing of relaxation seen in fatigue has been examined using an isolated mouse soleus preparation. 2. Slowing of relaxation occurred during prolonged tetani under anaerobic conditions when ATP and PC fell and lactate accumulated. 3. Slowing of relaxation was also demonstrated with muscles poisoned with
cyanide
and iodoacetic acid when there was a fall in ATP and PC but no accumulation of lactate. During a period of anaerobic recovery following a fatiguing tetanus, relaxation became faster at a time when lactate was accumulating in the muscle. 4. It is concluded that the slowing of relaxation in fatigue is not a consequence of lactate accumulation, and a relationship is demonstrated between the ATP content of the muscle and the rate of relaxation in muscles fatigued by prolonged stimulation, 5. Rates of ATP turn-over in fresh muscle, and at intervals throughout a tetanus are consistent with the suggestion that the rate limiting step for myofibrillar
ATPase
may be directly related to the rate limiting step for the decay of tension during relaxation.

V79 Chinese hamster cells were used as a model for the characterization of the Co(II) uptake into mammalian cells as well as the mechanisms involved. Co(II) was taken up in a dose and time dependent manner. The uptake was exponential without saturation in the tested concentration range up to 400 microM CoCl2. Furthermore, there was a high intracellular cobalt accumulation at elevated extracellular Co(II) doses (up to 16 fold at 200 microM). The time course of Co(II) uptake showed a maximum after about 8-12 h with no further change after the longest tested incubation time (24 h). The uptake of Co(II) into V79 cells seems to be mediated by multiple mechanisms: active, energy consuming transport like ion pumps and endocytosis, since the Co(II) uptake was significantly reduced by ouabain (an inhibitor of the Na+/K+ATPase), N-ethylmaleinimide (an inhibitor of the Ca2+/Mg2+ATPase and the Na+/K+ATPase), chlorpromazine (a calmodulin antagonist and inhibitor of the Ca2+/Mg2+
ATPase
) as well as by the endocytosis inhibitor chloroquine. Furthermore, the two agents iodoacetate and potassium
cyanide
, which produce ATP depletion, resulted in a diminution of the intracellular cobalt concentration. An uptake through anion channels could be excluded, since 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulphonic acid was not inhibitory.

We have studied a mitochondrial inorganic pyrophosphatase (PPase) in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The uncoupler FCCP (carbonyl
cyanide
p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone) and the ionophores valinomycin and nigericin stimulate the PPase activity of repeatedly washed yeast mitochondria 2-3-fold. We have previously cloned a yeast gene, PPA2, encoding the catalytic subunit of a mitochondrial PPase. Uncouplers stimulate the PPase activity several-fold in mitochondria from both cells that overexpress PPA2 from a high copy number plasmid and cells with normal expression. These results indicate that the PPA2 polypeptide functions as an energy linked and membrane associated PPase. The stimulation of mitochondrial PPase activity by FCCP, but not by valinomycin and nigericin, was greatly enhanced by the presence of DTT. The antibiotics Dio-9, equisetin and the F0F1-
ATPase
inhibitor oligomycin also increase mitochondrial PPase activity several fold. This stimulation is much higher, whereas basal PPase activity is lower, in isotonic than in hypotonic solution, which indicates that intact membranes are a prerequisite for maximal effects.

Trans cisternal elements of the Golgi apparatus from rat liver, identified by thiamin pyrophosphatase cytochemistry, were isolated by preparative free-flow electrophoresis and were found to undergo acidification as measured by a spectral shift in the absorbance of acridine orange. Acidification was supported not only by adenosine triphosphate (ATP) but nearly to the same degree by inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi). The proton gradients generated by either ATP or PPi were collapsed by addition of a neutral H+/K+ exchanger, nigericin, or the protonophore, carbonyl
cyanide
m-chlorophenylhydrazone, both at 1.5 microM. Both ATP hydrolysis and ATP-driven proton translocation as well as pyrophosphate hydrolysis and pyrophosphate-driven acidification were stimulated by chloride ions. However, ATP-dependent activities were optimum at pH 6.6, whereas pyrophosphate-dependent activities were optimum at pH 7.6. The Mg2+ optima also were different, being 0.5 mM with ATP and 5 mM with pyrophosphate. With both
ATPase
and especially pyrophosphatase activity, both by cytochemistry and analysis of free-flow electrophoresis fractions, hydrolysis was more evenly distributed across the Golgi apparatus stack than was either ATP- or PPi-induced inward transport of protons. Proton transport colocalized more closely with thiamin pyrophosphatase activity than did either pyrophosphatase or
ATPase
activity. ATP- and pyrophosphatase-dependent acidification were maximal in different electrophoretic fractions consistent with the operation of two distinct proton translocation activities, one driven by ATP and one driven by pyrophosphate.

Rb+ influx was used to assess Na-K-Cl cotransport and Na,K-
ATPase
activities in cultured monkey retinal pigment epithelium. Bumetanide-sensitive (Na-K-Cl cotransport-mediated) Rb+ influx exceeds ouabain-sensitive (Na,K-
ATPase
-mediated) Rb+ influx, with these two transporters accounting for approximately 95% of total Rb+ uptake. Half-maximal inhibition of Rb+ influx by bumetanide is attained at 75 nM bumetanide. The bumetanide-sensitive Rb+ influx depends on both extracellular Na+ and Cl-, and is activated by extracellular Rb+ with a relatively high affinity. Na-K-Cl cotransport activity is stimulated (2.5-fold) by increased extracellular osmolarity. Elevated cAMP content and glycolytic inhibition both depress cotransport activity.
Cyanide
application, however, had very little effect on Na-K-Cl cotransport activity. Monkey retinal pigment epithelial cells, maintained in culture, provide a system in which the activity and regulation of cation transport mechanisms can be examined.

The effects of ifenprodil on
adenosine triphosphatase
(
ATPase
) activity were examined using guinea pig liver mitochondria. 1) Intact mitochondrial ATPase activity was stimulated by ifenprodil in a concentration-dependent manner, this effect being further potentiated with dinitrophenol. The stimulation by ifenprodil appeared with only ATP among four nucleotides as substrate. Mg2+ and Ca2+ attenuated the effect of ifenprodil. Ifenprodil abolished the KCN-induced inhibition. 2) Heat-treated mitochondrial ATPase activity, kept for 60 min at 50 degrees C, was decreased in a concentration-dependent manner by ifenprodil. The inhibitory effect of ifenprodil was abolished by Mg2+ and Ca2+. These results indicate that ifenprodil has two behaviors, acceleration of a latent
ATPase
and inhibition of an activated
ATPase
. These findings, together with our previous data, suggest that ifenprodil seems to affect the actions of Mg2+ and Ca2+ on mitochondrial ATPase by directly affecting the membrane, and these mechanisms may be involved in its anti-
cyanide
effect.

The regulation of the intracellular free Mg2+ concentration ([Mg2+]i) was monitored in rat sublingual mucous acini using dual wavelength microfluorometry of the Mg(2+)-sensitive dye mag-fura-2. Acini attached to coverslips and superfused continuously with a Mg(2+)-containing medium (0.8 mM) have a steady-state [Mg2+]i of 0.35 +/- 0.01 mM. Adjusting the extracellular Mg2+ concentration to 0 and 10 mM or removing extracellular Na+ did not alter the resting [Mg2+]i. Stimulation with the Ca(2+)-mobilizing, muscarinic agonist, carbachol, induced a sustained increase in [Mg2+]i (approximately 50%; t1/2 < 20 s; Kd approximately 1.5 microM), the magnitude and the duration of which were unchanged in Mg(2+)-depleted medium indicating that the rise in [Mg2+]i was generated by Mg2+ release from an intracellular Mg2+ pool. Forskolin, which increases the intracellular cAMP content, produced a small, transient increase in the [Mg2+]i (< 10%). Muscarinic stimulation in a Ca(2+)-free medium blunted the initial increase in [Mg2+]i by approximately 50%, whereas the sustained increase in [Mg2+]i was lost. When the muscarinic-induced increase in [Ca2+]i was blocked by 8-(diethylamino)octyl 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoate, an inhibitor of the agonist-sensitive intracellular Ca2+ release pathway, both the initial and the sustained phases of the increase in [Mg2+]i were virtually eliminated. Thapsigargin and 2,5-di-(terbutyl)-1,4-benzohydroquinone, which increase [Ca2+]i by inhibiting microsomal Ca(2+)-
ATPase
, caused a dramatic increase in [Mg2+]i. Stimulation in a Na(+)-free medium or in the presence of bumetanide, an inhibitor of Na+/K+/2Cl- cotransport, blunted the agonist-induced rise in [Mg2+]i (approximately 50%), whereas ouabain, a Na+,K(+)-
ATPase
inhibitor, had no significant effect. FCCP (carbonyl
cyanide
p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone), a mitochondrial uncoupler, mobilized an intracellular Mg2+ pool as well. The carbachol-induced increase in [Mg2+]i was markedly inhibited by FCCP (approximately 80%), suggesting that the same pool(s) of Mg2+ were primarily involved. The above results provide strong evidence that Ca(2+)-mobilizing agonists increase cytoplasmic free [Mg2+] by releasing an intracellular pool of Mg2+ that is associated with a rise in the [Na+]i.
