1. A purified preparation of Ascaris myosin was obtained from the muscle layer of Ascaris lumbricoides suum, using gel filtration and ion-exchange chromatography. 2. Ascaris myosin whether purified or unpurified, had almost the same ability for ATP-splitting and superprecipitation. 3. Ascaris myosin and rabbit skeletal myosin were subjected to sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. A significant difference in the number of light chains between both myosins was found. Ascaris myosin was found to have one heavy chain and two distinct light chain components (LC1-A and LC2-A), having molecular weights of 18000 and 16000, respectively. These light chains correspond in molecular weight to the light chain 2 (LC2-S) and light chain 3 (LC3-S) in rabbit skeletal myosin. 4. LC1-A could be liberated from the Ascaris myosin molecule reacted with 5,5'-dithio-bis(2-nirobenzoic acid( Nbs2) with recovery of ATPase activity by addition of dithiothreitol. These properties are equivalent to those of the LC2-S in rabbit skeletal myosin, although Ascaris myosin when treated with Nbs2-urea lost its ATPase activity.

The inhibitory component of the troponin complex (TN-I) was purified from bovine cardiac muscle, using a combination of ion exchange and molecular exclusion chromatographies in the presence of urea. It has the ability to inhibit the Mg2+-activated APTase (EC 3.6.1.3) of a synthetic cardiac actomyosin preparation and this inhibition is reversed by the addition of cardiac calcium binding component of troponin (TN-C). Conventional sedimentation equilibrium experiments suggest a molecular weight for cardiac TN-I of 22 900 +/- 500. However, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) gels indicate a molecular weight of 27 000 +/- 1000. The mobility of TN-I on SDS gels may be anomalous due to the high proportion of basic amino acid residues in the protein. Cardiac TN-I and TN-C interact to form a tight complex, even in the presence of 6 M urea. The results of this study invite direct comparison with results published for rabbit skeletal TN-I.

The three major components of bovine cardiac troponin were separated by successive chromatography on sulfopropyl-Sephadex and DEAE-Sephadex columns in the presence of 6 M urea. All three of the bovine cardiac troponin subunits were necessary to restore full troponin activity in both skeletal and cardiac actomyosin ATPase assay systems. The 38,000-dalton subunit bound tropomyosin, and the 20,000-dalton subunit bound calcium, like skeletal TN-T and TN-C, respectively. The 28,000 component, although presumably analogous to skeletal TN-I, gave very little inhibition of actomyosin ATPase activity. Differences between cardiac and skeletal troponin subunits were also found in the elution patterns from ion exchange columns and in amino acid composition, thus demonstrating a significant muscle-type specificity.

1-5 of the epsilon-amino groups of myosin were trinitrophenylated by 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulphonate. The Mg2+-activated ATPase activity was found to increase twenty fold while the K+-activated ATPase was strongly inhibited as a result of this treatment. Myosin was dissociated by urea after trinitrophenylation and its heavy and light chains were isolated. Virtually all the introduced trinitrophenyl groups were found in the heavy chain indicating that the lysyl residues, the modification of which affects the ATPase activity, are located at the heavy core of the myosin molecule.

Two new forms of the plasma membrane ATP-ase of Micrococcus lysodeikticus NCTC 2665 were isolated from a sub-strain of the microorganism by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. One of them had a mol.wt of 368,000 and a very low specific activity (0.80 mumol.min-1.mg protein-1) that could not be stimulated by trypsin. This form has been called B1 (strain B, inactive). If the elctrophoresis was carried out in the presence of reducing agents (i.e., dithiothreitol) and the pH of the effluent maintained at a value of 8.5 another form of the enzyme was obtained. This had a mol.wt of 385,000 and a specific activity of 2.5-5.0 mumol.min-1.mg protein-1 that could be stimulated by trypsin to 5-10 mumol.min-1.mg protein-1. This preparation of the ATPase has been called from BA (strain B, enzyme active). The subunit composition of both forms has been studied by sodium dodecyl sulphate and urea gel electrophoresis and compared to that of the enzyme previously purified from the original strain (form A). The three forms of the enzyme had similar beta and delta subunits, with mol.wt of about 50,000 and 30,000 dalton, respectively. They also had in common the component(s) of relative mobility 1.0, whose status as true subunit(s) of the enzyme remains yet to be established. However, subunit alpha, that had a mol.wt of about a 52,500 in form A (ANDREU et al. Eur. J. Biochem. (1973) 37, 505-515), had a mol.wt similar to beta in form B1 and about 60,000 in form BA. Furthermore BA usually showed two types of this subunit (alpha' and alpha") and an additional peptide chain E) with a mol.wt of about 25,000 dalton. This latter subunit seemed to account for the stimulation by trypsin of form BA. Forms BA could be converted to B1 by storage and freezing and thawing. Conventional protease activity could not be detected in any of the purified ATPase forms and addition of protease inhibitors to form BA failed to prevent its conversion to form B1. The low activity form (B1) was more stable than the active forms of the enzyme and also differeed in its circular dichroism. These results show that M. lysodeikticus ATPase can be isolated in several forms. Although these variations may be artifacts caused by the purification procedures, they provide model systems for understanding the structural and functional relationships of the enzyme and for drawing some speculations about its function in vivo.

In order to examine acid phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.2) and ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3) activities of baker's yeast (pH optimum 3.5) a protoplast-secreted enzyme preparation was purified and some physical and chemical properties were studied. Three protein fractions containing ATPase and acid phosphatase activities, in the same ratio as the initial preparation, were separated by ion-exchange chromatography. The first fraction which had the highest protein content yielded a homogeneous preparation after Sepharose 4B chromatography and was used in further studies. An attempt to estimate molecular weight of this protein was made. Attempts to separate acid phosphatase and ATPase activities by ion-exchange chromatography, gel filtration, isoelectric focusing and sucrose density gradient centrifugation have been unsuccessful. Both activities behaved the same way to heat and urea denaturation. These results suggest that the two activities are associated with the same protein molecule.

The subunit composition, the thiol group content and the biological activities of cardiac tropomyosins (TM) of various animal species were compared. Cardiac TM from small animals such as rabbit, guinea-pig, rat and dog contain 2 SH/mole and were resolved into one band on SDS and acid urea electrophoresis and into two bands on alkaline urea electrophoresis. Chicken cardiac TM likewise gave one band and it contains 4 SH/mole. In contrast pig, sheep and human cardiac TM contain respectively 2.6, 2.4, and 2.4 SH/mole and were resolved into two bands alpha and beta on the different electrophoresis systems used, with a beta:alpha ratio respectively of I:4.2, I:4.6, I:4.8. The alpha-TM components from sheep skeletal and pig and sheep cardiac muscles were more positively charged than the rabbit skeletal alpha-TM component, as shown in alkaline urea electrophoresis system. The alphaalpha and alphabeta combinations of dimers found for skeletal muscle by other authors, were also found for cardiac pig TM. All the TM have the same effect on the Ca2+-stimulated ATPase activity of desensitized actomyosin (DAM) and on the Mg2+-stimulated ATPase activity of DAM with troponin-complex. This work suggests that the subunits of the TM from skeletal and cardiac muscles are heterogenous in their M.W. and their charges and that in the heart as well as in skeletal muscle a relationship seems to exist between the amount of the beta component and the speed of contraction of the muscle: a higher amount of this component was found in the bulky hearts which are also those which contract slower.

The toxic effects of imidocarb diproprionate (3,3'-bis [2 imidazolin-2yl]-carbanilde diproprionate) were evaluated in adult goats given (intramuscular injection) a lethal dose (6.75 mg/kg). The immediate clinical signs of toxicosis were transient excessive salivation and diarrhea. Anorexia, dyspnea, recumbency, and death occurred between postinjection days (PID) 4 and 8, during which time 7 goats died and 4 moribund goats were euthanatized. There were marked increases in mean serum urea nitrogen concentration and significant increases in serum glutamic oxalacetic transminase activity and in the mean number of circulating neutrophils after PID 4. Renal hyperemia and enlargement were evident by PID1. Serosanguineous fluid in the trachea and major bronchi, pulmonary congestion and edema, hydrothorax, hydroperitoneum, and less frequently hydropericardium were observed on and after day 4. Microscopic renal tubular lesions rapidly progressed from pyknotic epithelial nuclei observed at 6 and 12 hours to acute tubular necrosis of epithelium of the proximal convoluted tubules on days 1 and 2. Pulmonary congestion and edema; hemorrhage into alveoli, bronchioles, and bronchi; and intracytoplasmic lipid vacuoles within the hepatocytes in the periacinar zones of the hepatic lobules were observed on or after day 4. Succinic dehydrogenase and adenosine triphosphatase activities decreased progressively in the epithelial cells of the proximal convoluted tubules. The decreases in cellular enzymatic activity occurred shortly after the appearance of microscopic lesions in the tubular epithelium.

The properties of a Ca2+ activated adenosine triphosphatase shown to be present in homogenates of purified rat peritoneal mast cells were investigated. The enzyme was activated by Ca2+, Mg2+, and to a lesser extent by Mn2+ and Co2+. Ca2+ alone was necessary for full activity and the further addition of Mg2+ did not have any effect. The chelating agents EGTA (ethanedioxybis(ethylamine)tetra-acetate) and EDTA completely inhibited the reaction. The pH optimum was 7.8. Reduced glutathione, cysteine, dithiothreitol, N-ethylmaleimide, urea, ADP, NaF, increasing ionic strength and Triton X-100 all inhibited the reaction. On subcellular fractionation of mast-cell homogenates by density-gradient centrifugation, the distribution of Ca2+ activated adenosine triphosphatase resembled that of 5'-nucleotidase, but differed from that of the other markers used, suggesting localization in the plasma membrane. Further experiments indicated that the enzyme is present on the external surface of the plasma membrane.

Rat spermatozoa from the cauda epididymidis were found to have a lower activity of the surface ATPase than the spermatozoa from the caput region. The enzyme from spermatozoa of both regions had the same Michaelis constant (Km) for ATP of 5 X 10(-4) M. It was partly inhibited by ouabain and fluoride, but strongly inhibited by Cu2+, Zn2+,p-chloromercuribenzoate, 8-anilino-1-naphthalenesulphonate Triton X-100, Lubrol-PX, urea, guanidine hydrochloride, sodium dodecyl sulphate and glycerylphosphorylcholine. The enzyme of the spermatozoa from the cauda epididymidis was more sensitive to inhibition by ouabain and fluoride but less sensitive to inhibition by Cu2+ than that of the cells form the caput region. The Arrhenius plot of the temperature dependence of enzymatic activity varied for the cells from the caput and cauda epididymidis. The differences in the enzyme properties of spermatozoa from the two regions of the epididymis suggested that the decline in the activity during epididymal maturation may reflect changes in the lipids and sulphydryl groups of the sperm membrane.
