Administration of 60,000 i.e. of vitamin A into rats within three weeks caused an increase in amount of reticulocytes, in the rate of glucose utilization and in formation of lactic acid by erythrocytes. The activity of glycolytic enzymes was intensified. The activity of hexokinase was increased by 84.6%, activities of aldolase and phosphohexoisomerase were increased by 34%. But in the erythrocytes content of AMP, ADP and ATP was unaltered, probably due to activation of total and Na+, K+-dependent ATPase. The harmful effect of an excess of the vitamin A was manifested in an increased content of Na+ in erythrocytes and also in decreased stability of the cells to acid hemolytics.

An approach to explain the early metabolic disturbances induced by a moderate ischaemia on the basis of comparative biochemical investigations concerning the oxidative metabolism in the skeletal muscles, is the object of the present paper. These investigations have revealed the following findings: (i) during a slight ischaemia the skeletal muscle maintains its ability to oxidize in vitro lactate and exhibits an increased activity in oxidizing pyruvate, succinate and L-glutamate, and (ii) the stores of adenosine and ATP are depleted and an important accumulation of inorganic phosphate, accompanied by a remarkable activation of phosphatases, occurs in the ischaemic muscle, while no significant changes in the ATPase and creatine phosphokinase activities and in the amount of AMP, ADP and creatine phosphate are detectable in this muscle.

Bovine cardiac myosin ATPase activity was rapidly inactivated by the purine disulfide analog of ATP,6,6'-dithiobis(inosinyl imidodiphosphate). Kinetic investigations showed that this analog acted as a site-specific reagent at 0 degrees with a Ki of 130 muM and a half-life of 8.2 min at saturating inhibitor concentrations. Concentrations (50 to 500 muM) of ATP, adenyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate (AMP-PNP), or ADP that saturated the active site caused an enhancement in the rate of inactivation, indicating the purine disulfide analog was not reacting at the active site. Under these conditions saturation kinetic data were still observed with Ki values remaining unchanged (120 muM) but with the half-life of inactivation decreasing to 6.0 min (ATP) and 4.6 min (AMP-PNP) at saturating inhibitor concentrations. At concentrations greater than 0.5 mM ATP, AMP-PNP, or ADP there was a decrease in the rate of inactivation, implying protection by these nucleotides. However, saturation kinetics of inactivation could no longer be demonstrated, implying a change in the mechanism of inactivation. A comparison of the inactivation of the Mg2+, Ca2+, and EDTA-ATPase activities of cardiac myosin after modification by the purine disulfide analog showed that the Mg2+- and Ca2+ATPase activities plateaued at approximately 60% and 40%, respectively, while the EDTA-ATPase activity continued to decrease to below 10%. This evidence supports the suggestion that the purine disulfide analog was not reacting at the active site. Equilibrium dialysis experiments were used to measure the binding of [8-3H]AMP-PNP to native cardiac myosin, the thiopurine nucleotide-modified myosin, and the derivative formed by displacing the thiopurine nucleotide by cyanide (thiocyanato-myosin). Native myosin bound a total of 2.1 mol of AMP-PNP with a binding constant of 6.0 X 10(6) M-1. There was a 15 to 40% decrease in the number of AMP-PNP binding sites in the enzyme derivatives, but the active sites appeared not to be blocked since the association constants remained essentially unchanged (KA=3.9 X 10(6) M-1 for thiopurine nucleotide-myosin and 12.0 X 10(6) M-1 for thiocyanato-myosin). The kinetic studies and the binding experiments indicate that the purine disulfide analog reacts at a specific site other than the active site but do not offer support to earlier suggestions from skeletal myosin studies that this site is a possible ATP control site.

The UV absorption difference spectrum of heavy meromyosin induced by adenylyl imidodiphosphate (AMP-PNP) was found to be changed by temperature. At higher temperatures, the shape of the difference spectrum resembled the ATP-form of difference spectrum induced by ATP. At lower temperatures, a different shape was observed, resembling that induced by ADP. This temperature transition was found in the presence of both MgCl2 and MnCl2. The transition temperatures, were 21 degrees and 9 degrees in the presence of MnCl2 and MgCl2, respectively. A similar temperature dependence was observed with the difference spectrum induced by ATP at the steady state. The transition temperatures in this case were 11 degrees and 4.5 degrees in the presence of MnCl2 and MgCl2, respectively. The similarity of the effects of the two kinds of divalent cation on both transitions indicates that the temperature induced transition between two species of heavy meromyosin-AMP-PNP complex mimics the step in APTase [EC 3.6.1.3] reaction in which the intermediate complex showing the ATP-form of difference spectrum changes to that showing the ADP-form. The equilibrium constant of the decay step of the ATP-form of difference spectrum to the ADP-form in ATPase is, therefore, thought to be highly temperature dependent. Thermodynamic parameters were calculated for the transition between the two species of heavy meromyosin AMP-PNP complex. Large decreases in enthalpy and entropy were observed, while the standard free energy change was small. The results suggest that the intermediate showing the ATP-form of difference spectrum hardly changes to the forward direction in the ATPase reaction at higher temperature. The complex appears to be so stable in the steady state that almost all the myosin is present as this complex. The decay step in ATPase of the difference spectrum from the ATP-form to to the ADP-form may be coupled to muscular contraction. The temperature induced transition of heavy meromyosin AMP-PNP complex may, therefore, provide information concerning the state of myosin in active muscles.

Fast (extensor digitorum longus) and slow (soleus) rat skeletal muscles served as the source for isolation and biochemical comparison of two distinct surface membrane fractions with properties of the sarcolemma and transverse tubular system. Enriched sarcolemmal membrane from soleus demonstrated a lighter density after sucrose density centrifugation. Sialic acid content was 1.5-fold higher in soleus (62 nmol/mg) than extensor (40 nmol/mg). The specific activity of (Na+ + K+ + Mg2+)-ATPase was similar (1.40 and 1.65 micronmol Pi/mg per 5 min) with the soleus enzyme displaying a (1) greater resistance to inhibition by ouabain, and (2) broader ionic ratio (Na+/K+) requirement than extensor enzyme. The polypeptide and phospholipid composition showed no major differences between the two muscle types. The second surface membrane fraction, tentatively identified as transverse tubule, differed in membrane composition. The major polypeptide of extensor was of 95 000 molecular weight whereas for soleus a Mr=28 000 species was dominant. Total phospholipid content of soleus was 1.5-fold greater than extensor due mostly to increased levels of phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine. Endogenous membrane protein kinase for the 28 000 molecular weight polypeptide was found exclusively in this membrane. The reaction conditions were identical for extensor and soleus since both required divalent cations (Ca2+ and Mg2+) and neither was affected by cyclic AMP. Soleus showed a 2-fold higher capacity for phosphate incorporation than extensor. These studies show that surface membrane fractions derived from fast and slow muscles differ in terms of functional and compositional properties. These differences are specific not only for the surface membrane but for the muscle type and may relate to the known physiological differences observed between fast and slow mammalian muscle.

Human adult lung fragments removed from macroscopically undamaged and anthracosis exempted zones of lungs of 20 pneumonectomies made for cancer, were tested for 25 enzymic activities. The location and intensities of these enzymic activities were different in the lung tissue components; The bronchial epithelia contained highly active LDH, MDH, SDH, NADH-TR and NADPH-TR, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, active hydroxyproline-2-epimerase, alkaline phosphatase. Ca2+-activated ATP-ase, and beta-galactosidase. Bronchial and vascular muscles presented intense activities of LDH, MDH and SDH of alkalinephosphatase, AMP-ase and Ca2+-activated ATP-ase, as well as of beta-galactosidase. The alveolar walls presented high activities of SDH, MDH and LDH, of alkaline and acid phosphatases, of beta-galactosidase and of Tween-40 and 60-esterases, of HEP, cytochrome-oxidase and peroxidase. The free alveolar macrophages were active for LDH, MDH, SDH, NADH-TR and NADPH-TR, G1-6-ph-DH, acid and alkaline phosphatase, cytochrome-oxidase and peroxidase, HEP, AMP-ase and Mg2+-activated ATP-ase, Tween-esterases, naphthol-ASD-acetate esterase, and beta-galactosidase. The endothelia contained high activities of alkaline phosphatase, of AMP-ase and Mg2+-activated ATPase, of LDH, MDH and SDH, and of beta-galactosidase. In bronchial lymphoid nodules it was the LDH, MDH, SDH, cytochrome-oxidase and peroxidase, HEP, alkaline phosphatase and AMP-ase, Tween-60-esterase and beta-galactosidase that were active. The interlobular areas of the lung presented intense activities of SDH, MDH, LDH, HEP and cytochrome-oxidase. The activities of the other tested enzymes were weaker or absent in the adult human lung components, the same as those of aminopeptidases which were present only in some free alveolar macrophages. The discussion of some relationships between these enzymic actitivies and the morphology of the human adult lung tissue asserted that the latter could not be considered as a "normal" tissue but as one overstrained by the components of blood and polluted air.

1. The specific activity of rat and pig liver nuclear-envelope nucleoside triphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.3) decreases when the system is depleted of RNA. The activity can be restored by adding high concentrations of yeast RNA to the assay medium. 2. Exogenous RNA also increases the activity of the enzyme in control envelopes (not RNA-depleted). The effect appears to be largely specific for poly(A) and poly(G); it is not stimulated by rRNA or tRNA preparations, ribonuclease-hydrolysed RNA, AMP, or double- or single-stranded DNA. 3. Inhibitors of the enzyme, in concentrations at which half-maximal inhibition of the enzyme is achieved, do not affect the percentage stimulation of the enzyme by yeast RNA. 4. The simulation is abolished by the inclusion of 150 mM-KCl or -NaCl in the assay medium, but not by increasing the assay pH to 8.5. 5. The results are discussed in the light of the possible role of the nucleoside triphosphatase in vivo in nucleo-cytoplasmic ribonucleoprotein translocation. 6. It is proposed that poly(G)-stimulated Mg2+-activated adenosine triphosphatase activity should be adopted as an enzymic marker for the nuclear envelope.

The isolated rectal gland of Squalus acanthias was stimulated to secrete chloride against an electrical and a chemical gradient when perfused in vitro by theophylline and/or dibutyryl cyclic AMP. Chloride secretion was depressed by ouabain which inhibits Na-K-ATPase. Thiocyanate and furosemide also inhibited chloride secretion but ethoxzolamide, a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor, did not. Chloride transport was highly dependent on sodium concentration in the perfusate. The intracellular concentration of chloride averaged 70-80 meq/liter in intact glands, exceeding the level expected at electrochemical equilibrium and suggesting active transport of chloride into the cell. These features suggest a tentative hypothesis for chloride secretion by the rectal gland in which the uphill transport of chloride into the cytoplasm is coupled through a membrane carrier to the downhill movement of sodium along its electrochemical gradient. The latter is maintained by the Na-K-ATPase pump while chloride is extruded into the duct by electrical forces.

The fluorescent sulfhydryl reagent S-mercuric-N-dansyl cysteine (Dn-Cys-Hg+) has been used to label a purified preparation of the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase obtained from the electric organ of Electrophorous electricus. The labelled (Na+ +K+)-ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3), although reversibly inhibited, was capable of undergoing conformational changes associated with the active enzyme that could be monitored fluorometrically. The presence of ligands (Na+ + Mg2+ + ATP or Mg2+ + Pi) which are known to convert the enzyme from the E-1 state to the E-2-P state brought about large (97--100%) increases in fluorescence of the dimethylaminonaphthalene sulfonyl (Dn) label. An E-2 state could be achieved by the addition of Mg2+ which caused only a 32.3% increase in fluorescence over the E-1 state. Neither AMP nor TTP with or without Mg2+ or Na+ or Pi added without Mg2+ had any effect on the Dn fluorescence. If the enzyme was denatured, no fluorescence changes were observed. Small changes in the polarization of fluorescence of the Dn moiety were observed under all the conditions used. These small polarization changes and the large increases in the fluorescence intensity suggest that the enzyme can change conformational states in the presence of appropriate ligands and these conformational changes may take place in a relatively limited region of the protein's structure.

The electrophysiologic properties and the negative inotropic effect of verapamil are most likely due to the inhibition of calcium movement across the sarcolemmal membrane. A possible biochemical basis for this inhibition of calcium movement was studied in a membrane fraction rich in (Na+ + K+)-ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3) and adenylate cyclase (EC 4.6.1.1) activity and which demonstrated Ca2+-ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3) activity. Since each of these enzymes has the potential for influencing transsarcolemmal calcium movements, the effect of verapamil on their activities was studied in this membrane fraction isolated from rat and guinea pig hearts. Ca2+-ATPase activity in the rat was 37.7 mumol Pi/mg per hour compared with 13.8 +/- 2.9 in the guinea pig (p less than 0.01). Corresponding values for (Na+ + k+)-atpase activites were 7.9 +/- 0.9 mumol Pi/mg per hour versus 10.2 +/- 1.4. Adenylate cyclase activity in the rat was 240 +/- 8 pmol/mg per minute compared with 299 +/- 27. It was found that verapamil in concentrations of 0.01-100 mg/litre (2.1 X 10(-8) to 2.1 X 10(-4) M) had no effect on the activity of the above enzymes in either species and it was concluded that a biochemical basis for the effect of verapamil on calcium flux has yet to be defined.
