gamma-Glutamylcysteine synthetase was purified from rat liver by an improved method involving chromatography on Sepharose-aminohexyl-ATP to a specific activity of about 1600 units/mg, or approximately twice that previously obtained; it is thus the most active preparation of this enzyme thus far isolated. The earlier preparation, which is homogeneous on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, exhibits "half of the sites" reactivity in that it binds a maximum of 0.5 mol of the inhibitor L-methionine-S-sulfoximine phosphate per mol of enzyme. In contrast, the present enzyme preparation binds 1 mol of methionine sulfoximine phosphate per mol of enzyme; it also differs from the enzyme obtained earlier in exhibiting much less ATPase activity and less activity in catalyzing ATP-dependent cyclization of glutamate. gamma-Glutamylcysteine synthetase dissociates in sodium dodecyl sulfate into two nonidentical subunits of apparent molecular weights 74,000 and 24,000; after cross-linking with dimethyl-suberimidate, a species having a molecular weight of about 100,000 was found on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. New information has been obtained about the interaction of the enzyme with glutamate analogs; thus, the enzyme is active with such glutamate analogs as beta-glutamate, N-methyl-L-glutamate, and threo-beta-hydroxy-L-glutanate, and it is effectively inhibited by cis-1-amino-1,3-dicarboxycyclonexane, 2-amino-4-phosphonobutyrate, and gamma-methylglutamate.

Selectively permeable membrane vesicles isolated from Simian virus 40-transformed mouse fibroblasts catalyzed Na+ gradient-coupled active transport of several neutral amino acids dissociated from intracellular metabolism. Na+-stimulated alanine transport activity accompanied plasma membrane material during centrifugation in discontinuous dextran 110 gradients. Carrier-mediated transport into the vesicle was demonstrated. When Na+ was equilibrated across the membrane, countertransport stimulation of L-[3H]alanine uptake occurred in the presence of accumulated unlabeled L-alanine, 2-aminoisobutyric acid, or L-methionine. Competitive interactions among neutral amino acids, pH profiles, and apparent Km values for Na+ gradient-stimulated transport into vesicles were similar to those previously described for amino acid uptake in Ehrlich ascites cells, which suggests that the transport activity assayed in vesicles is a component of the corresponding cellular uptake process. Both the initial rate and quasi-steady state of uptake were stimulated as a function of a Na+ gradient (external Na+ greater than internal Na+) applied artificially across the membrane and were independent of endogenous (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity. Stimulation by Na+ was decreased when the Na+ gradient was dissipated by monensin, gramicidin D or Na+ preincubation. Na+ decreased the apparent Km for alanine, 2-aminoisobutyric acid, and glutamine transport. Na+ gradient-stimulated amino acid transport was electrogenic, stimulated by conditions expected to generate an interior-negative membrane potential, such as the presence of the permeant anions NO3- and SCN-. Na+-stimulated L-alanine transport was also stimulated by an electrogenic potassium diffusion potential (K+ internal greater than K+ external) catalyzed by valinomycin; this stimulation was blocked by nigericin. These observations provide support for a mechanism of active neutral amino acid transport via the "A system" of the plasma membrane in which both a Na+ gradient and membrane potential contribute to the total driving force.

The source of metabolic energy for the accumulation of methionine in cells of Escherichia coli was shown to differ from that for proline uptake. In contrast to proline uptake, methionine accumulation was sensitive to arsenate, and relatively resistant to azide or dinitrophenol. Adenosine triphosphatase mutant strains also differentiated between the two systems, consistent with the conclusion that, although proline uptake is driven directly by the energized membrane state, methionine uptake is not. Methionine transport is similar to that of other osmotic shock-sensitive systems in its direct utilization of adenosine 5'-triphosphate or a related compound as energy source.

The present studies concern the roles of synthesis and degradation of the large subunit of (Na+ + k+)-adenosine triphosphatase (NaK-ATPase) in the response to triiodothyronin (T3). Single doses of either the diluent of T3 (50 mug/100 g body weight) were given to two pairs of surgically thyroidectomized rats. Twenty hours after injection, the rats received 3H- or 35S-labeled methionine administered as a constant injusion into the tail vein for 1 h. The kidneys were removed either 8 h or 20 h after infusion and the eight kidneys were divided into pairs, as follows. I, 3H (diluent)/35S (T3); II, 35S (diluent)/3H (T3); III, 3H (diluent)/35S (diluent); IV, 3H (T3)/35S (T3). Partially purified NaK-ATPase was prepared from the pooled homogenates and prepared from the pooled homogenates and analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAG-electrophoresis). The large subunit of NaK-ATPase was identified by (Na+ + mg2+)-dependent and K+-sensitive incorpotation of 32P from [gamma-32P]ATP. This component had an estimated molecular weight of 92,000 and migrated as a single peptide in gels of varying total carylamide concentration, with respect to: (1) Coomassie blue staining, (b) (Na+ + Mg2+)-dependent, K+-sensitive incorporation of 32P from [gamma-32-P]ATP, and (c) T3-dependent enhanced incorporation of labeled methionine. T3 augmented incorporation of labeled methionine into the large subunit by 44% 8 h after infusion of the amino acid and by 61% 20 h after infusion. Incorporation of methionine into two adjacent polypeptides in the SDS gels was unaffected by thyroid status. The effect otical NaK-ATPase was assessed by a double label technique. Pairs of thyroidectomized rats were injected with either the diluent or 50 mug of T3/100 g body weight at 48-h after the first injection (diluent or T3, i.e. Day "zero"). Kidney cortices were processed on either Day 4 or Day 6; the partially purified NaK-ATPase fraction was prepared, labeled with [gamma-32P]ATP, and analyzed by SDS-PAG-electrophoresis. The degredation rate constants of the large subunit were similar; 0.145 and 0.124 day-1 for the hypothyroid and T3-treated groups, respectively. Thus, the T2-dependent increase in incorporation of labeled methionine into the large subunit appears to result from enhanced synthesis and this increase is sufficient to account for the entire increase in both the number of the activity of the NaK-ATPase units.

Addition of the synthetic chemotactic factor, formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylala-nine (F-Met-Leu-Phe) to medium containing magnesium, sodium, and potassium results in a doubling of the "Na+, K+"-ATPase activity of the plasma membrane fraction from polymophonuclear leukocytes (PMN). This activation is sensitive to ouabain inhibition and is dose dependent, maximal activity occuring at 10(-9)MF-Met-Leu-Phe. Equivalent activation was observed with the nonformylated derivative Met-Leu-Phe at 10(-9)M. The dipeptide, carbobenzoxy-methionylphenylalanine, which acts as an antagonist for F-Met-Leu-Phe, prevents the stimulation of the "Na+, K+"-ATPase by F-Met-Leu-Phe.

The mitochondrial F1-ATPase is irreversibly inactivated by the adenine nucleotide analogue, p-fluorosulfonylbenzoyl-5'-adenosine. This inactivation is partly prevented by the presence of bound adenine nucleotides. Inactivations of the ATPase with p-fluorosulfonyl[14C]benzoyl-5'-adenosine were most efficiently accomplished with the nucleotide-free enzyme at pH 7.0, in a buffer containing 20% glycerol. Under these conditions, 4.2 g atoms of 14C are incorporated per 350,000 g of enzyme when the ATPase is inactivated by 90% by its reaction with 2 mM p-fluorosulfonyl[14C]benzoyl-5'-adenosine. Isolation of the component polypeptide chains of the labeled ATPase showed that all of the radioactivity was associated with the two largest subunits. The isolated alpha subunit contained 0.45 g atom of 14C/mol and the isolated beta subunit contained 0.88 g atom of 14C/mol. Hence, the inactivation can be correlated with the incorporation of 14C into the beta subunit. This suggests that the hydrolytic site of the enzyme resides on this subunit. The majority of the radioactivity in a tryptic digest of labeled beta subunit is contained ina tryptic peptide that has the following amino acid sequence: Ile-Met-Asp-Pro-Asn-Ile-Val-Gly-Ser-Glu-His-Tyr-Asp-Val-Ala-Arg, where Tyr is the radioactive derivative of the tyrosine residue that was sulfonylated during the inactivation.

Characterization of a butanol-solubilized protein isolated from chloroplast membranes is reported. The proteolipid, which specifically and covalently binds dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, has an apparent molecular weight of 8,000 in dodecylsulfate electrophoresis. The minimum molecular weight calculated from amino acid analysis data is 7,700. N-Formyl-methionine was determined to be the N-terminal amino acid. Glycine, alanine and leucine were present in elevated amounts, resulting in a polarity of 29%. Cysteine and histidine were lacking. In high-voltage electrophoresis the peptide appeared as a single homogenous spot which migrated, at pH 6.5, with the relative mobility of glycine. At concentrations where dicyclohexylcarbodiimide inhibited ATPase activity maximally (20 nmol per mg membrane protein), 0.17 nmol dicyclohexylcarbodiimide was covalently bound per nmol isolated proteolipid, indicating that one out of six molecules of proteolipid was labeled.

A heat-stable protein has been purified from rat liver mitochondria which inhibits the ATP hydrolytic activity of both the soluble and membrane-bound mitochondrial F1-ATPase. The overall purification is about 2400-fold with the major purification step consisting of Sephadex "affinity" chromatography. The purified rat liver inhibitor is homogeneous as assessed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis with an apparent molecular weight of 12,300. Amino acid analysis reveals a high content of glutamic acid, lysine, and arginine and the absence of cysteine, proline and methionine. Whether tested with the rat liver or bovine heart ATPase, the liver inhibitor is equally as potent and specific as the heart inhibitor preparation of Pullman and Monroy (Pullman, M.E., and Monroy, G.C. (1963) J. Biol. Chem. 238, 3762-3769). Although the results presented show that the rat liver ATPase inhibitor resembles closely the ATPase inhibitors from other tissues with respect to specific activity and reaction specificity, it is important to note that the rat liver inhibitor is almost 2000 daltons larger than the bovine heart inhibitor, about 5000 daltons larger than ATPase inhibitors of yeast, and contains significantly more lysine residues than both the bovine heart and yeast inhibitors.

The calcium transport ATPase (M(r) 100,000) from sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes was synthesized in a cell-free translation system containing rough microsomes or detergent-treated bound polysomes from 14- to 16-day old chicken embryo muscles. Immunoprecipitates obtained from total translation mixtures treated with anti-ATPase antiserum contained 1.5% of the total radioactivity incorporated in vitro. A polypeptide with the electrophoretic mobility, isoelectric point, and [(35)S]methionine-labeled tryptic peptide pattern of the mature ATPase was a major component of these immunoprecipitates. By contrast, free polysomes from the same source, which were capable of high levels of in vitro protein synthesis, did not yield immunoprecipitable ATPase. ATPase synthesized in rough microsomes was not released by treatment with 10 mM EDTA in a high-salt medium (0.5 M KCl) which removes ribosomes and peripheral membrane proteins. Furthermore, labeled ATPase remained associated with the microsomes after these were treated with low concentrations of deoxycholate (0.1 mg/mg of protein in 0.3 ml) which release the luminal content of the vesicles. Only with higher deoxycholate concentrations (0.5 mg/mg of protein in 0.3 ml), which cause membrane dissolution, was the labeled ATPase found on the detergent extracts. These observations indicate that newly synthesized ATPase discharged from bound ribosomes is transferred directly to the sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes where it is incorporated as an integral membrane protein.

We described previously the existence of a soluble ATPase activity in rat liver mitochondria [1]. The purification and catalytic properties have been described [2]. In a continuation of these experiments, we have studied the immunologic and structural properties of one molecular form of this enzyme : ATPase I. We have prepared the antiserum anti-ATPase I and demonstrated the purity of our enzyme preparation by immunodiffusion and immunoelectrophoresis. An immunohistochemical method also confirmed the localization of ATPase I in the soluble fraction of mitochondria. The molecular weight of ATPase I was measured by G 100 Sephadex gel filtration and was found to be 18,400; electrophoresis on polyacrylamide gels gave a value of 18,600. The pHi of ATPase I was found to be 7,2. Amino acid analysis showed high amounts of aspartic acid, glutamic acid, serine and glycine. The molecular weight calculated from the total amino acid residues was found to be 17,000. Alanine is the NH2 terminal amino acid. The peptide maps obtained after degrading ATPase I with cyanogen bromide or trypsin are in accordance with the methionine, lysine and arginine residues we found in the ATPase I molecule. ATPase I does not appear to be a glycoprotein.
