Fluorescence resonance energy transfer measurements have been used to construct spatial maps for the accessible sulfhydryl of the gamma subunit (dark site) and the essential tyrosine residue of the beta subunits relative to previously mapped sites on the H+-ATPase from chloroplasts. The extent of energy transfer was measured between a coumarinylmaleimide derivative reacted covalently at the dark site and acceptor species selectively bound at the gamma-disulfide and the three nucleotide binding sites of the solubilized coupling factor complex. The nucleotide energy acceptor was 2'(3')-(trinitrophenyl)adenosine triphosphate, and the gamma-disulfide site was labeled with fluoresceinylmaleimide. The dark-site sulfhydryl also was labeled with pyrenylmaleimide which served as an energy donor for 7-chloro-4-nitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole reacted at the beta-tyrosine sites. Similar measurements were also made with pyrenylmaleimide covalently attached to the gamma-sulfhydryl accessible only under energized conditions on the thylakoid membrane surface (light site). The observed transfer efficiencies indicate that the dark-site sulfhydryl is approximately 45 A from all three nucleotide sites and 41-46 A from the gamma-disulfide site. The average distances separating the essential beta-tyrosines and the light- and dark-site sulfhydryls are 38 and 42 A, respectively. (In calculating these distances, random orientation of the donor-acceptor dipoles was assumed.) The results are consistent with a previously described structural model of the intact enzyme and can be used to gain insight into the overall structural organization or alpha-, beta-, and gamma-polypeptides within the coupling factor.

The native tonoplast and the mitochondrial H+-ATPase from oat roots were compared to determine whether the two enzymes have similar mechanisms. H+ pumping in low-density microsomal vesicles reflected activity from the tonoplast-type ATPase, as ATPase activity and ATP-dependent H+ pumping (quinacrine fluorescence quenching) showed similar sensitivities to inhibition by N-ethylmaleimide, N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, 4,4'-diisothiocyano-2,2'-stilbene disulfonate, nitrate, quercetin, or 7-chloro-4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole. The tonoplast-type ATPase was stimulated by C1-,Br- greater than HCO3- whereas the mitochondrial ATPase was stimulated by HCO3- much greater than C1-,Br-. Both enzymes hydrolyzed ATP preferentially and were inhibited competitively by AMP or ADP. Apart from resistance to azide, the tonoplast-type ATPase was strikingly similar in its inhibitor sensitivities to the mitochondrial ATPase. The insensitivity to vanadate of both enzymes suggests the reaction mechanisms do not involve a covalent phosphoenzyme. Inhibition by 7-chloro-4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole and N-ethylmaleimide and protection by ATP suggests tyrosine and cysteine residues are in the catalytic site of the tonoplast ATPase. The mitochondrial ATPase was 100 times more sensitive to N,N'-dicyclohexyl-carbodiimide inhibition than the tonoplast H+-ATPase. These results suggest the tonoplast and the mitochondrial H+-ATPases share common steps in their catalytic and vectorial reaction mechanisms, yet sufficient differences exist to indicate they are two distinct ATPases.

Mutant genes for the beta subunit of H+-translocating ATPase (F0F1) were cloned from Escherichia coli strains isolated in this laboratory. Determination of their nucleotide sequence revealed four missense mutations (strain KF39, Glu-41----Lys; strain KF16 and KF42, Glu-185----Lys; strain KF48, Gly-223----Asp; KF26 and 4 other strains, Ser-292----Phe). Two nonsense mutants (strain KF40, Gln-361----end; strain KF20, Gln-397----end) were also identified. Glu-41, Glu-185, and Ser-292 are conserved in the amino acid sequences of the beta subunits so far studied, and Gly-223, Gln-361, and Gln-397 are conserved in beta subunits from bacteria and mitochondria, but not in those from chloroplasts. The amounts of F1 subunits in the membranes of these strains were studied by immunochemical assay and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. In the mutants studied, the amounts of alpha and beta subunits in the membranes were 69-21 and 46-2%, respectively, of the amounts in wild-type membranes, the amount depending on the strain. No delta and epsilon subunits were detected in membranes of a missense mutant KF16, although reduced amounts of alpha and beta subunits could be detected, suggesting that the F1 portion may not be connected to F0 through the delta and epsilon subunits. The altered residues in missense mutants or missing domains in nonsense mutants may be important for the subunit-subunit interactions or assembly of the entire complex. Genetic experiments on introduction of suppressor tRNA into strains KF40 and KF20 suggested that F1 could be active even when residue 361 or 397 was replaced by a Ser, Leu, or Tyr residue.

F1-type ATPase is the central enzyme for ATP synthesis in most organisms. Because of the extreme reconstitutability of thermophilic ATPase (TF1) and diversity of the minor subunits of F1 type ATPase, an operon coding for TF1 was isolated from DNA of thermophilic bacterium PS3, and its terminal region containing the epsilon subunit (TF1 epsilon) and terminator was sequenced. The primary structure of the epsilon subunit (Mr = 14 333) was deduced from the nucleotide sequence (396 base-pairs) and amino-acid sequence of its amino terminus. The conclusions drawn from the results are as follows. Homologies: TF1 epsilon shows only 6% homology with the epsilon subunits of eight species reported, but 50% homology with Escherichia coli epsilon and 41% with chloroplast. The residues having a tendency to form reverse turns (Gly, Pro and Tyr) and His are relatively well conserved. Unlike some F1 epsilon types TF1 epsilon has no ATPase inhibitor activity and is not homologous with ATPase inhibitor. TF1 epsilon is essential to connect F1 to F0, like the b subunit, and is weakly homologous with the b subunit of F0F1. The cause of 3 beta: 1 epsilon subunit stoichiometry: The ribosome binding sequence of TF1 epsilon is TAGGN7, which is incomplete compared with that of TF1 beta. The codon usage for TF1 epsilon is similar to that for TF1 epsilon. The cause of stability of TF1 epsilon and its gene: There are 18 ionic groups at the putative reverse turns and the N- and C-termini of TF1 epsilon, but only 10 ionic groups in the corresponding sites of E. coli epsilon subunit. These ionic groups enhance the external polarity of TF1 epsilon and may intensify subunit-subunit interaction. There is a terminator at the 3' end of the TF1 epsilon gene, which is stabilized by a long (13 base-pairs) stem.

Mutations in the uncB gene which encodes the a subunit of F1F0-ATPase in Escherichia coli were isolated and characterized. Eight mutations caused premature polypeptide chain termination. Two mutations were single amino acid substitutions resulting in the replacements of serine 206 with leucine (ser-206----leu) and histidine 245 with tyrosine (his-245----tyr). The ser-206----leu mutation does not alter F1 binding and allows ATP driven membrane energization at a low level. Stripping of F1 from membranes containing the ser-206----leu mutation does not render the membranes permeable to protons indicating impaired proton conductivity. The his-245----tyr mutation also blocks Fo-mediated proton conduction but has normal F1 binding properties. F1 bound to membranes with both ser-206----leu and his-245----tyr mutant a subunits is sensitive to dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. Apparently, both missense mutations impair proton conduction without altering assembly of the F1F0-ATPase complex. The direct involvement of the a subunit in proton translocation is discussed.

The saturable, carrier-mediated system capable of the brain-to-blood transport of small peptides with an N-terminal tyrosine was characterized. The rate of disappearance of intraventricularly injected iodinated peptide in the presence or absence of the inhibitor being tested was determined from formulas based on the residual radioactivity in the brains of mice after decapitation. The injection of 100 nmol/mouse of unlabeled N-Tyr-MIF-1 (TMIF) increased the half-time disappearance of 125I-TMIF (ITMIF) in the central nervous system (CNS) from 14.1 to 88.7 min (P less than 0.00005). Technetium, a substance transported out of the brain by the same system that transports iodine, was used as a control; the half-time disappearance of technetium pertechnetate was unaffected by unlabeled TMIF. With two related but distinct techniques, the maximum transport rate out of the CNS (Vmax) for TMIF was 0.266 nmol X g of brain per min (method 1) and 0.297 nmol X g-1 X min-1 (method 2), while the amount of unlabeled material needed to achieve 50% of Vmax (Km) was 15.2 nmol/g (method 1) and 15.1 nmol/g (method 2). The lack of effect of the tyrosinated fragments of TMIF as inhibitors indicates that TMIF is being transported in intact form. The Vmax for methionine enkephalin determined with labeled and unlabeled methionine enkephalin was 0.630 nmol X g-1 X min-1 and the Km was 24.95 nmol/g. Studies with the metabolic modulators furosemide, acetozolamide, reserpine, ouabain, and theophylline suggest that the system is sodium dependent and probably independent of ATPase.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The inactivation of the bovine heart mitochondrial F1-ATPase by 5'-p-fluorosulfonylbenzoylinosine (FSBI) proceeds with pseudo-first order kinetics. The rate of inactivation increased from pH 7 to 9 revealing a pKa of about 8.2. When a tryptic digest of the enzyme which had been inactivated with 5'-p-fluorosulfonylbenzoyl[3H]inosine ([3H]FSBI) was submitted to reversed phase high pressure liquid chromatography, a single major peak of radioactivity, T1, was resolved. Amino acid sequence analysis of purified peptide fragments derived from T1 showed that the modification of beta-Tyr-345 is responsible for inactivation of the enzyme. Complete inactivation of the enzyme by [3H]FSBI is estimated to proceed with modification of 0.8 mol of beta-Tyr-345/mol of enzyme. Another notable observation is that inosine triphosphatase (ITPase) activity catalyzed by F1 from bovine heart mitochondria is much more sensitive to inactivation by 5'-p-fluorosulfonylbenzoyladenosine (FSBA) than is ATPase activity. Whereas complete inactivation of ATPase activity by FSBA has been shown to proceed with the mutually exclusive modification of Tyr-368 or His-427 in all three copies of the beta subunit (Bullough, D. A., and Allison, W. S. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 5722-5730), it is shown here that complete inactivation of ITPase activity by FSBA is accompanied by modification of these residues in only one copy of the beta subunit. Inactivation of both the ATPase and ITPase activities of the enzyme by FSBI proceeds with modification of Tyr-345 in a single copy of the beta subunit.

Two geometric isomers of covalently labeled F1-adenosinetriphosphatase (F1-ATPase) have been prepared by reaction with 7-chloro-4-nitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (NBD-Cl): a directly labeled product denoted by O-beta'-NBD-F1 and an indirectly prepared product denoted by 0-beta'-NBD-F1. The normal isomer O-beta'-NBD-F1 is highly inhibited, and its label can be removed by 20 microM N-acetyl-L-cysteine (AC) at the expected rate with dr/dn approximately equal to -1, where n is the molar ratio of the label to F1 and r is the ratio of the ATPase activity of the labeled enzyme to that of the unlabeled control enzyme. But O-beta"-NBD-F1 is almost fully active, and its label can be removed by 20 microM AC at much slower rates with dr/dn approximately equal to 0. Cleavage of either isomer with pepsin and subsequent amino acid analysis of the isolated radioactive polypeptides show that the label is attached to Tyr-beta 311 in both isomers. At pH 9 the label in O-beta'-NBD-F1 spontaneously transfers from Tyr-beta 311 to the presumably nearby Lys-beta 162 in the dark with a half-time of 1/2 h, but the label in O-beta"-NBD-F1 does not transfer under the same conditions. The existence of geometric isomers of O-NBD-F1 with contrastingly different properties invalidates models for F1 with three equivalent beta subunits but is consistent with the model based on one principal catalytic beta' subunit and two auxiliary beta" subunits. A possible mechanism for promoting the catalytic efficiency of beta' through protein conformation change induced by ATP and/or ADP is suggested.

The proton pump (H+-ATPase) found in the plasma membrane of the fungus Neurospora crassa is inactivated by dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD). Kinetic and labeling experiments have suggested that inactivation at 0 degrees C results from the covalent attachment of DCCD to a single site in the Mr = 100,000 catalytic subunit (Sussman, M. R., and Slayman, C. W. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 1839-1843). In the present study, when [14C]DCCD-labeled enzyme was treated with the cleavage reagent, N-bromosuccinimide, a single major radioactive peptide fragment migrating at about Mr = 5,300 on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was produced. The fragment was coupled to glass beads and partially sequenced by automated solid-phase Edman degradation at the amino terminus and at an internal tryptic cleavage site. By comparison to the DNA-derived amino acid sequence for the entire Mr = 100,000 polypeptide (Hager, K., and Slayman, C. W. (1986) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 83, 7693-7697), the fragment has been identified as arising by cleavage at tyrosine 100 and tryptophan 141. Covalently incorporated [14C]DCCD was released at a position corresponding to glutamate 129. The DCCD-reactive glutamate is located in the middle of the first of eight predicted transmembrane sequences. When the sequence surrounding the DCCD site is compared to that surrounding the DCCD-reactive residue of two other proton pumps, the F0F1-ATPase and cytochrome c oxidase, no homology is apparent apart from an abundance of hydrophobic amino acids.

Oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis was used to generate six mutant strains of Escherichia coli which had the following specific amino acid substitutions in the beta-subunit of F1-ATPase: (i) Lys-155----Gln; (ii) Lys-155----Glu; (iii) Gly-149----Ile; (iv) Gly-154----Ile; (v) Tyr-297----Phe;(vi) Tyr-354----Phe. The effects of each mutation on growth of cells on succinate plates or limiting (3 mM) glucose and on cell membrane ATPase activity and ATP-driven pH gradient formation were studied. The results showed Lys-155 to be essential for catalysis, as has been predicted previously from sequence homology and structural considerations; however, the results appear to contradict the hypothesis that Lys-155 interacts with one of the substrate phosphate groups because the Lys-155----Glu mutation was less detrimental than Lys-155----Gln. Gly-149 and Gly-154 have been predicted to be involved in essential conformational changes in F1-ATPase by virtue of their position in a putative glycine-rich flexible loop structure. The mutation of Gly-154----Ile caused strong impairment of catalysis, but the Gly-149----Ile mutation produced only moderate impairment. The two tyrosine residues chosen for mutation were residues which have previously received much attention due to their being the sites of reaction of the inactivating chemical modification reagents 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzofurazan (Tyr-297) and p-fluorosulfonylbenzoyl-5'-adenosine (Tyr-354). We found that mutation of Tyr-297----Phe caused only minor impairment of catalysis, and mutation of Tyr-354----Phe produced no impairment. Therefore, a direct role for either of these tyrosine residues in catalysis is unlikely.
