Purified chondrocytic alkaline phosphatase (orthophosphoric-monoester phosphohydrolase (alkaline optimum), EC 3.1.3.1) from bovine fetal epiphyseal cartilage hydrolyzes a variety of phosphate esters as well as ATP and inorganic pyrophosphate. Optimal activities for p-nitrophenyl phosphate, ATP and inorganic pyrophosphate are found at pH 10.5, 10.0 and 8.5, respectively. The latter two substrates exhibit substrate inhibition at high concentrations. p-Nitrophenyl phosphate demonstrates decreasing pH optima with decreasng substrate concentration. Heat inactivation studies indicate that both phosphorolytic and pyrophosphorolytic cleavage occur at the same site on the enzyme. Mg2+ (0.1-10.0 mM) and Mn2+ (0.01-0.1 mM) show a small stimulation of p-nitrophenyl phosphate-splitting activity at pH 10.5. Levamisole, Pi, CN-, Zn2+ and L-phenylalanine are all reversible inhibitors of the phosphomonoesterase activity. Pi is a competitive inhibitor with a Ki of 10.0 mM. Levamisole and Zn2+ are potent non-competitive inhibitors with inhibition constants of 0.05 and 0.04 mM, respectively. The chondrocytic alkaline phosphatase is inhibited irreversibly by Be2+, EDTA, EGTA, ethane-1-hydroxydiphosphonate, dichloromethane diphosphonate, L-cysteine, phenyl-methylsulfonyl fluoride, N-ethylmaleimide and iodoacetamide. NaCL, KCL and Na2SO4 at 0.5-1.0 M inhibit the enzyme. At pH 8.5, the cleavage of inorganic pyrophosphate (pyrophosphate phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.1) by the chondrocytic enzyme is slightly enhanced by low levels of Mg2+ and depressed by concentrations higher than 1mM. Ca2+ show only inhibition. Similar effects of Mg2+ and Ca2+ on the associated ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.1.6.3) activity were observed. Arrhenius studies using p-nitrophenyl phosphate and AMP as substrates have accounted for the ten-fold difference in V in terms of small differences in both the enthalpies and entropies of activation which are 700 cal/mol and 2.3 cal/degree per mol, respectively.

TN-C was purified from bovine cardiac muscle. In the absence of Ca-2+, cardiac TN-C has an intrinsic sedimentation coefficient of 1.93 S and a molecular weight of 18 000 daltons. Cardiac TN-C reverses the inhibitory effect of skeletal TN-I on the Mg-2+-activated ATPase of a skeletal synthetic actomyosin preparation in the presence of skeletal tropomyoson. Circular dichroism (CD) studies indicate that cardiac TN-C undergoes a major conformational change upon binding Ca-2+. A similar response is elicited by Sr-2+, whereas Mg-2+ has a much less pronounced effect. The presence of Mg-2+ does not alter the net effects of either Ca-2+ or Sr-2+. Cardiac TN-C is rich in acidic amino acid residues. UV absorption, near UV CD, and fluorimetric studies show that the protein lacks tryptophan and has a relatively high phenylalanine to tyrosine ratio. The results of this study invite direct comparisons with results reported for the skeletal muscle analogue of cardiac TN-C.

In contrast with wild-type Salmonella typhimurium LT2, strain HfrA did not have ATP-driven energy-dependent transhydrogenase activity, although ATP-dependent quenching of atebrin fluorescence was normal. Respiration-dependent and energy-independent transhydrogenase, and Ca2+-activated ATPase (adenosine triphosphatase) activities were similar in both strains. Purified ATPases from the two strains had similar specific activities, similar subunit polypeptides, and were equally effective in restoring energy-dependent transhydrogenase activities to membrane particles of strain LT2 from which the ATPase had been stripped. The purified ATPases from both strains could restore respiration-dependent but not ATP-dependent transhydrogenation to stripped particles of strain HfrA. Both strains grew aerobically equally well on salts media containing glucose, malate, succinate, citrate, acetate, pyruvate, fumarate, lactate or aspartate as substrates. Growth on glucose under anaerobic conditions was similar. Strains LT2 and HfrA were equally effective in the accumulation under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions of the amino acids proline, phenylalanine, histidine, lysine, isoleucine and aspartic acid. Inhibition of amino acid accumulation by KCN and dicyclohexylcarbodi-imide occurred to the same extent in both strains. The complete inhibition by dicyclohexylcarbodi-imide of amino acid uptake under anaerobic conditions suggested that ATP could drive amino acid uptake in both strains. The ability of strain HfrA to carry out ATP-dependent transport or quenching of atebrin fluorescence but not ATP-dependent transhydrogenation is different from the wild-type strain and from any previously described energy-coupling mutant. It is difficult to reconcile the properties of this mutant with the chemiosmotic hypothesis.

The uptake of proline and glutamine by cytochrome-deficient cells of Escherichia coli SASX76 grown aerobically on glucose or anaerobically on pyruvate was stimulated by these two substrates. Pyruvate could not stimulate transport in the glucose-grown cells. Uptake of these amino acids energized by glucose was inhibited by inhibitors of the Ca2+, Mg2+-stimulated ATPase such as DCCD, pyrophosphate, and azide, and by the uncouplers CCCP and 2,4-dinitrophenol. Glycerol (or glycerol 3-phosphate) in the presence of fumarate stimulated the transport of proline and glutamine under anaerobic conditions in cytochrome-deficient cells but not in membrane vesicles prepared from these cells although glycerol 3-phosphate-fumarate oxidoreductase activity could be demonstrated in the vesicle preparation. In contrast, in vesicles prepared from cytochrome-containing cells of E. coli SASX76 amino acid transport was energized under anaerobic conditions by this system. Inhibitors of the Ca2+, Mg2+-activated ATPase and uncoupling agents inhibited the uptake of proline and glutamine in cytochrome-deficient cells dependent on the glycerol-fumarate oxidoreductase system. Ferricyanide could replace fumarate as an electron acceptor to permit transport of phenylalanine in cytochrome-deficient or cytochrome-containing cells under anaerobic conditions. It is concluded that in cytochrome-deficient cells using glucose, pyruvate, or glycerol in the presence of fumarate, transport of both proline and glutamine under under anaerobic conditions is energized by ATP through the Ca2+, Mg2+-activated ATPase. In cytochrome-containing cells under anaerobic conditions electron transfer between glycerol and fumarate can also drive transport of these amino acids.

Harmaline inhibits both the Na+ -K+ -ATPase activity and the uptake of L-phenylalanine in guinea-pig intestinal mucosa. The latter effect is not a direct consequence of the former, since higher concentrations are needed to inhibit the enzyme than the influx into the mucosa; Furthermore the uptake is still sensitive to harmaline when the Na+ -K+ -ATPase has been fully inhibited by ouabain. Harmaline can inhibit L-phenylalanine influx at a concentration at which it does not affect intracellular ion concentrations. Ouabain, however, inhibits the uptake of L-phenylalanine only after a 30 min preincubation period, when the intracellular sodium concentration reached the extracellular level. Harmaline also interferes with the influx of beta-methyl-D-glucoside in the mucosa of the dog colon. Addition of harmaline at the mucosal face of the tissue suppresses all net transport of sodium and chloride ions and L-phenylalanine across the mucosa. Thus the same mode of action appears to apply in both the guinea-pig ileum and the dog colon.

Juvenile rats fed a diet containing 1% lead acetate for 7 weeks, in addition to an impaired growth rate and renal function derangements, suffered malabsorption of glucose and certain amino acids, as assessed by an in vivo perfusion technique. The reduction in glucose absorption ranged between 10% and 31% when the carbohydrate was pumped in concentrations of 2-80 mM. This alteration was compatible with a noncompetitive type of transport inhibition. The intestinal absorption of glycine, lysine, and phenylalanine were, respectively, decreased 22, 18, and 15% when these amino acids were present at 1 mM levels. Sodium transport was severely reduced (57.6 +/- 17.9 (SEM) vs. 124.2 +/- 17.4 muEq/min-cm) and intestinal mucosa (Na+-K+)-ATPase was concomitantly lower in the lead-intoxicated rats (186.4 +/- 19.0 vs 268.4 +/- 29.8 nmol P/min-mg protein). However, this enzyme was not altered in liver and kidney. Furthermore, intestinal mucosa fructose-1,6-diphosphatase, succinic dehydrogenase, pyruvate kinase, and tryptophan hydroxylase were not different in experimental and control animals. These studies substantiate the presence of functional and biochemical abnormalities in the intestinal mucosa of young rats when fed substantial amounts of a soluble lead salt. It is, therefore, reasonable to accept the possibility that physiologic damage occurs in tissues directly subjected to high and persistent levels of a toxic agents, as it occurs in other organs, underscoring the parallelism between transport mechanisms at the renal and intestinal levels.

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.

Differential centrifugation of rat small intestinal homogenates produced a crude brush border (BB) fraction that was enriched 15-fold for the marker enzymes, alkaline phosphatase and sucrase; contamination with mitochondrial enzymes, monoamine oxidase and succinate dehydrogenase, was minimal. ATP hydrolysis by this BB fraction was stimulated by addition of several anions to the incubation medium: HCO3 and Cl were equally effective in this regard, with NO3, NO2, SO4, and acetate being less stimulatory. SCN and CNO inhibited ATPase activity, whereas the divalent anion SO3 was stimulatory at low concentrations (less than 25 mM) but inhibitory at 100 mM. Maximum anion stimulation was observed at a Mg concentration of 0.5 mM, and pH optimum was 8.5. Kinetic analysis showed that HCO3 increased the Vmax without altering the Km for ATP; the Ka for this effect of HCO3 was 35 mM. This enzyme activity was completely inhibited by 20 mM L-phenylalanine, 10 mM L-cysteine, and 3 mM EDTA, compounds that also inhibited intestinal alkaline phosphatase. These results demonstrate the presence of anion-stimulated ATPase activity in rat small intestinal brush border and suggest that this activity may be related to intestinal alkaline phosphatase. The role of this enzyme in intestinal transport is not known, but could relate to the regulation of intestinal absorption and secretion.

Differences exist in the coupling of energy to transport of glycine and phenylalanine in aerobically grown cells of Escherichia coli. Energy derived from respiration, although involved in both uptake systems, is not employed identically as shown by kinetic effects of cyanide and anoxia and by temperature dependencies. Additional evidence for aerobic differences was provided by the effects of azide which greatly decreased initial rates of uptake of glycine but not phenylalanine. The effect on glycine uptake was not due to uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation or to a decrease in respiration rate. Evidence for anaerobic differences was provided by the addition of either glucose or ferricyanide to cell suspensions containing glycerol, thereby maintaining anoxic uptake of phenylalanine, but not glycine, at the aerobic level. Ferricyanide stimulation required a functional Ca, Mg-adenosine 5'-triphosphatase and involved cell metabolism. Ferricyanide was also found to produce differential stimulation of other amino acid transport systems; tyrosine, tryptophan and leucine uptakes were stimulated whereas those for alanine, proline, threonine, and glutamine were relatively unaffected.

Troponin C was isolated from the skeletal muscle of bullfrog (Rana catesbeiana), and its relative molecular mass was estimated to be 18,000 by SDS/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. In its amino acid composition, bullfrog troponin C was similar to that of the frog (Rana esculenta) but different from that of rabbit. Its ultraviolet spectrum was consistent with its amino acid composition. The ultraviolet difference spectrum of the Ca(2+)-loaded form vs. the metal-free form indicated that the single Tyr residue and some Phe residues in the bullfrog troponin C molecule were affected by the conformational change associated with Ca2+ binding. On electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gel in 14 mM Tris and 90 mM glycine, the metal-free and Mg(2+)-loaded forms migrated slower than the Ca(2+)-loaded form. The property is shared by rabbit troponin C but not parvalbumins or calmodulin. The ATPase activity of CDTA-treated myofibrils reconstituted with bullfrog troponin C showed the same Ca(2+)- and Sr(2+)-sensitivity as that of those reconstituted with rabbit troponin C. Bullfrog troponin C is, thus, physiologically the same as rabbit troponin C, in spite of several marked differences in their physicochemical properties.
