An ATP-dependent calcium transport component from rat liver plasma membranes was solubilized by cholate and reconstituted into egg lecithin vesicles by a cholate dialysis procedure. The uptake of Ca2+ into the reconstituted vesicles was ATP-dependent and the trapped Ca2+ could be released by A23187. Nucleotides, including ADP, UTP, GTP, CTP, GDP, AMP, and adenyl-5'-yl beta, gamma-imidophosphate, and p-nitrophenylphosphate did not substitute for ATP. The concentration of ATP required for half-maximal stimulation of Ca2+ uptake into the reconstituted vesicles was 6.2 microM. Magnesium was required for calcium uptake. Inhibitors of mitochondrial calcium-sequestering activities, i.e. oligomycin, sodium azide, ruthenium red, carbonyl cyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone, and valinomycin did not affect the uptake of Ca2+ into the vesicles. In addition, strophanthidin and p-chloromercuribenzoate did not affect the transport. Calcium transport, however, was inhibited by vanadate in a concentration-dependent fashion with a K0.5 of 10 microM. A calcium-stimulated, vanadate-inhibitable phosphoprotein was demonstrated in the reconstituted vesicles with an apparent molecular weight of 118,000 +/- 1,300. These properties of Ca2+ transport by vesicles reconstituted from liver plasma membranes suggest that this ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport component is different from the high affinity (Ca2+-Mg2+)-ATPase found in the same membrane preparation (Lotersztajn, S., Hanoune, J. and Pecker, F. (1981) J. Biol. Chem. 256, 11209-11215; Lin, S.-H., and Fain, J.N. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 3016-3020). When the entire reconstituted vesicle population was treated with ATP and 45Ca in a buffer containing oxalate, the vesicles with Ca2+ transport activity could be separated from other vesicles by centrifugation in a density gradient and the ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport component was purified approximately 9-fold. This indicates that transport-specific fractionation may be used to isolate the ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport component from liver plasma membrane.

The characteristics of the H+ pump in isolated rat renal endocytotic vesicles were studied by the delta pH-sensitive dye acridine orange, the voltage-sensitive dye 3,3'-dipropylthiadicarbocyanine iodide, and by a coupled optical ATPase assay. Intravesicular acidification depended on ATP and Mg2+ concentrations with half-maximal activations at 73 and 77 microM, respectively. CTP, GTP, UTP, and ITP partially supported acidification, but ADP and AMP did not. Ouabain, ethoxzolamide, levamisole, and vanadate did not inhibit H+ uptake into endocytotic vesicles. Oligomycin inhibited partially. Depending on concentration and preincubation time, Dio-9, filipin, N-ethylmaleimide (NEM), and dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD) inhibited H+ uptake completely. Filipin and, partially, DCCD acted nonspecifically by dissipating pH gradients. A specific cation was not required for the H+ pump; Zn2+ inhibited. Compared with mannitol, ATP-driven H+ uptake was stimulated by SCN- greater than Cl- greater than Br- greater than I- much greater than HPO4(2-) = gluconate = HCO3- = F-, but not by SO4(2-), NO3-, CH3COO-, S2O3(2-), and S4O6(2-). Chloride stimulated H+ uptake from the outside of the vesicles with an apparent Km of 27 mM. In the absence of Cl-, ATP-driven proton uptake was increased by intravesicular K+ and valinomycin, suggesting that the pump is electrogenic. The electrogenicity, however, could not be demonstrated with voltage-sensitive dyes. The vesicle membrane contains no significant K+ and Cl- conductances; only a conductance for H+ was found. The vesicles exhibited an ouabain-, oligomycin-, and vanadate-insensitive ATPase activity that was inhibited by DCCD and NEM. Our data indicate the presence of an electrogenic H+ pump in endocytotic vesicles from rat renal proximal tubules with similar characteristics as H+ pumps present in various intracellular (nonmitochondrial) membranes.

We have characterized divalent-cation-stimulated nucleoside triphosphate hydrolase activity of the excitable ciliary membrane and compared it with a soluble Ca2+-ATPase released upon deciliation of Paramecium. The membrane-bound activity is strongly dependent on a divalent cation; calcium stimulates the basal activity of this enzyme at least 10-fold; magnesium and manganese stimulate less well, and strontium and barium, although less effective, also give measurable stimulation. This membrane-bound activity prefers ATP and GTP as substrates but also hydrolyzes UTP and CTP at measurable rates. The maximum velocity at saturating ATP concentrations and optimal calcium concentrations is 0.3 mumol/min per mg. The pH optimum for the membrane-bound activity is broad and centers around pH 7. From the temperature dependence of ATP hydrolysis, we calculate activation energies of 14 and 11 kcal/mol for the Ca2+- and Mg2+-stimulated activities, respectively. The Arrhenius plot is linear over the temperature range of 4 to 25 degrees C. The membrane ATPase is relatively insensitive to ouabain, oligomycin, N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, vanadate, Ruthenium red and two calmodulin antagonists. Polyclonal antisera raised against the purified soluble ATPase from the deciliation supernatant show low reactivity with the membrane-bound ATPase. We conclude from the comparison of properties of the two activities that the ciliary membrane-bound ATPase is distinct from the soluble ATPase released by deciliation.

The ability of ATP, CTP, ITP, GTP, UTP and two synthetic ATP analogs to provide for ouabain-sensitive Na+ accumulation into proteoliposomes with a reconstituted Na+,K+-ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.37) was investigated. A correlation between the proton-accepting properties of the nucleotides and their ability to provide for active transport was found. The proton-accepting properties of the substrate seem to be a necessary condition for the shift from the K-form of Na+,K+-ATPase--an immutable step in the active translocation of Na+ and K+ through the Na+ pump.

The products of the arsenical resistance operon of resistance plasmid R733 form an efflux system for arsenicals. Detoxification results from active efflux of the oxyanions, preventing their concentration from reaching toxic levels. The largest polypeptide encoded by the ars operon was purified. From N-terminal sequencing the purified protein, termed the ArsA protein, was shown to correspond to the product of the arsA gene. The purified protein was demonstrated to bind ATP by two methods. First, a photoadduct of the protein with [alpha-32P]ATP was formed by irradiation at 254 nm. Second, the purified protein bound a fluorescent ATP analogue, 2',3'-o-(2,4,6)trinitrophenyl ATP, with a half-maximal affinity of 2 microM. By both assays competition was observed with ATP or ADP, but not with AMP, GTP, CTP, or UTP. In both nucleotide binding assays, Mg2+ was required, but neither arsenite nor antimonate had any affect. In contrast, the ArsA protein exhibited an ATPase activity which was dependent on the presence of arsenite or antimonate. The results suggest that the ArsA protein is the catalytic subunit of an oxyanion-translocating ATPase.

We have shown that the rat liver plasma membrane has at least two (Ca2+-Mg2+)-ATPases. One of them has the properties of a plasma membrane Ca2+-pump (Lin, S.-H. (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 7850-7856); the other one, which we have purified (Lin, S.-H., and Fain, J.N. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 3016-3020) and characterized (Lin, S.-H. (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 10976-10980) has no established function. In this study we present evidence that the purified (Ca2+-Mg2+)-ATPase is a plasma membrane ecto-ATPase. In hepatocytes in primary culture, we can detect Ca2+-ATPase and Mg2+-ATPase activities by addition of ATP to the intact cells. The external localization of the active site of the ATPase was confirmed by the observation that the Ca2+-ATPase and Mg2+-ATPase activities were the same for intact cells, saponin-treated cells, and cell homogenates. Less than 14% of total intracellular lactate dehydrogenase, a cytosolic enzyme, was released during a 30-min incubation of the hepatocytes with 2 mM ATP. This indicates that the hepatocytes maintained cytoplasmic membrane integrity during the 30-min incubation with ATP, and the Ca2+-ATPase and Mg2+-ATPase activity measured in the intact cell preparation was due to cell surface ATPase activity. The possibility that the ecto-Ca2+-ATPase and Mg2+-ATPase may be the same protein as the previously purified (Ca2+-Mg2+)-ATPase was tested by comparing the properties of the ecto-ATPase with those of (Ca2+-Mg2+)-ATPase. Both the ecto-ATPase and the (Ca2+-Mg2+)-ATPase have broad nucleotide-hydrolyzing activity, i.e. they both hydrolyze ATP, GTP, UTP, CTP, ADP, and GDP to a similar extent. The effect of Ca2+ and Mg2+ on the ecto-ATPase activity is not additive indicating that both Ca2+- and Mg2+-ATPase activities are part of the same enzyme. The ecto-ATPase activity, like the (Ca2+-Mg2+)-ATPase, is not sensitive to oligomycin, vanadate, N-ethylmaleimide and p-chloromercuribenzoate; and both the ecto-ATPase and purified (Ca2+-Mg2+)-ATPase activities are insensitive to protease treatments. These properties indicate that the previously purified (Ca2+-Mg2+)-ATPase is an ecto-ATPase and may function in regulating the effect of ATP and ADP on hepatocyte Ca2+ mobilization (Charest, R., Blackmore, P.F., and Exton, J.H. (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 15789-15794).

Large T antigen, the regulatory protein encoded by simian virus 40, has DNA helicase activity and unwinds double-stranded DNA at the expense of ATP. T antigen also functions as an RNA helicase separating duplex regions in partially double-stranded RNA substrates. Surprisingly, T antigen RNA helicase activity requires UTP, CTP, or GTP as a cofactor, whereas ATP is an inefficient energy source for the RNA unwinding reaction. Accordingly, T antigen has both an intrinsic non-ATP NTPase activity that is stimulated by single-stranded RNA and an ATPase activity stimulated by single-stranded DNA. Thus, it appears that the bound nucleotide determines whether T antigen acts as an RNA helicase or as a DNA helicase.

Mg-ATP dependent electrogenic proton transport, monitored with fluorescent acridine orange, 9-aminoacridine, and oxonol V, was investigated in a fraction enriched with potassium transporting goblet cell apical membranes of Manduca sexta larval midgut. Proton transport and the ATPase activity from the goblet cell apical membrane exhibited similar substrate specificity and inhibitor sensitivity. ATP and GTP were far better substrates than UTP, CTP, ADP, and AMP. Azide and vanadate did not inhibit proton transport, whereas 100 microM N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and 30 microM N-ethylmaleimide were inhibitors. The pH gradient generated by ATP and limiting its hydrolysis was 2-3 pH units. Unlike the ATPase activity, proton transport was not stimulated by KCl. In the presence of 20 mM KCl, a proton gradient could not be developed or was dissipated. Monovalent cations counteracted the proton gradient in an order of efficacy like that for stimulation of the membrane-bound ATPase activity: K+ = Rb+ much greater than Li+ greater than Na+ greater than choline (chloride salts). Like proton transport, the generation of an ATP dependent and azide- and vanadate-insensitive membrane potential (vesicle interior positive) was prevented largely by 100 microM N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and 30 microM N-ethylmaleimide. Unlike proton transport, the membrane potential was not affected by 20 mM KCl. In the presence of 150 mM choline chloride, the generation of a membrane potential was suppressed, whereas the pH gradient increased 40%, indicating an anion conductance in the vesicle membrane. Altogether, the results led to the following new hypothesis of electrogenic potassium transport in the lepidopteran midgut. A vacuolar-type electrogenic ATPase pumps protons across the apical membrane of the goblet cell, thus energizing electroneutral proton/potassium antiport. The result is a net active and electrogenic potassium flux.

The release of Ca2+ from vesicles of heavy sarcoplasmic reticulum after its accumulation due to hydrolysis of ATP, GTP, CTP, UTP or ITP has been studied using Antipyrylazo III, a metal-chromic Ca-indicator. All the studied substrates of the Ca-pump provide Ca2+ accumulation inside the heavy sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles, the spontaneous Ca2+ outflux rate being different for different nucleoside triphosphates. It is only ATP that provides Ca-(caffeine)-induced Ca2+ release, however AMP, ADP, beta, gamma-methylene-ATP induce Ca2+ ejection in the presence of nonadenylic nucleotides. The ruthenium red (10(-7M) inhibits the induced ejection of Ca2+ from vesicles of the heavy sarcoplasmic reticulum, but does not prevent the spontaneous release of Ca2+ in the same concentrations. A conclusion is drawn that besides Ca-channels sensitive to Ca2+ and caffeine in the presence of ATP (or to AMP, ADP, beta, gamma-methylene-ATP in the presence of nonadenylic nucleotides) and possessing high sensitivity to the ruthenium red there is another pathway for Ca2+ in the heavy reticulum membranes along which its spontaneous release occurs after the substrate exhaustion. It is supposed that this release is provided by the presence of the Ca-ATPase protein.

We have compared the ATPase, DNA-binding, and helicase activities of free simian virus 40 (SV40) large T antigen (To) and T antigen complexed with cellular p53 (T+p53). Each activity is essential for productive viral infection. The T+p53 and To fractions were prepared by sequential immunosorption of infected monkey cells with monoclonal antibodies specific for p53 and T antigen. The immune-complexed T fractions were then assayed in parallel. For ATP hydrolysis, the Vmax for T+p53 was 143 nmol of ADP per min per mg of protein, or 18-fold greater than for To. ATP had no effect on the stability of the T+p53 complex. The T+p53 complex was significantly more active than To in hydrolyzing dATP, dGTP, GTP, and UTP. Of the nucleotide substrates tested, the greatest relative increase (T+p53/To) was in hydrolyzing dGTP and GTP. In DNase footprinting assays performed under replication conditions, the T+p53 complex protected regions I, II, and III of origin DNA while equivalent amounts of To protected only regions I and II. Region III is known to contribute to the efficiency of DNA replication and contains the SP1-binding sites of the early viral promoter. The T+p53 fraction was also a more efficient helicase than To, especially with a GC-rich primer and template. Thus, the T+p53 complex has enhanced ATPase, GTPase, DNA-binding, and helicase activities. These findings imply that complex formation between cellular monkey p53 and SV40 T antigen modulates a number of essential activities of T in SV40 productive infection.
