Sodium- and potassium-activated adenosine triphosphatase (NaK-ATPase) was purified from nasal salt glands of the duck (Anas platyrhynchos). Enzyme of specific activity 2,000 to 2,300 mumol of Pi/mg/hour was routinely obtained by sodium dodecyl sulfate treatment of a microsomal fraction of gland homogenate in the presence of 3 mM ATP followed by pelleting of the enzyme through a sucrose density gradient. Purified NaK-ATPase was stable for over 3 months at -20 degree. By sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and gel filtration chromatography purified NaK-ATPase was shown to contain two polypeptide chains of molecular weight 94,000 and 60,000, the smaller of which was a glycoprotein. Purified enzyme of activity 2,300 mumol of Pi/mg/hour bound 3,600 pmol of ouabain/mg of enzyme protein. Reaction with [gamma-32P]ATP in the presence of Mg2+ and Na+ gave 7,025 pmol of acyl phosphate/mg of enzyme protein. The turnover number calculated from phosphorylation data was 5,460 min-1. Amino acid analysis of the polypeptide components of duck salt gland enzyme after separation by gel filtration chromatography in sodium dodecyl sulfate demonstrated strong compositional homology with highly purified NaK-ATPase preparations from other organs and species. The NH2-terminal amino acid of the 94,000-dalton component was glycine and of the 60,000-dalton component, alanine. With a combination of manual sequencing and automated Edman degradation, the NH2-terminal amino acid sequence of the 94,00-dalton catalytic subunit was found to be Gly-Arg-Asn-Lys-Tyr-Glu-Thr-Thr-Ala-()-Ser-Glu.

The ATP-energy transducing system in membranes of Escherichia coli is inhibited by dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. The protein component of this complex with which carbodiimides covalently react to inhibit function was previously identified by labeling wild type and dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-resistant mutants with dicyclohexyl[14C]carbodiimide (Fillingame, R. H. (1975) J. Bacteriol. 124, 870-883). This specific carbodiimide-reactive protein has now been purified. The protein was extracted from the membrane with chloroform:methanol and chromatographed on DEAE-cellulose and hydroxypropyl Spehadex G-50 in this sulvent mixture. The resultant 700-fold purification yielded a protein that was homogeneous on dodecyl sulfate-acrylamide gel electrophoresis and virtually free of phospholipid. It remained soluble in neutral chloroform:methanol throughout the purification procedure. The amino acid composition of the purified protein was extraordinary in that only 16% of the amino acids present could be considered polar. Histidine, serine, cysteine, and tryptophan were not found. Abnormally high contents of methionine, glycine, alanine, and leucine were present. One mole of lysine and threonine were found/mole of dicyclohexyl[14C]carbodiimide bound. The minimum molecular weight based on the amino acid composition was 8400. The specific carbodiimide-reactive protein has also been purified without prior modification by dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. The unmodified protein eluted from DEAE-cellulose at a higher salt concentration than the dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-modified form, which suggested that the reaction with the carbodiimide neutralized the negative charge. Only one-third of the total carbodiimide-reactive protein in the membrane was modified by dicyclohexylcarbodiimide under conditions which maximally inhibited adenosine triphosphatase activity. These results rais the possibility that the carbodiimide-reactive protein may be present as an oligomer in the energy-transducing complex. The purification of the unmodified carbodiimide-reactive protein should permit assessment of tis biological function, particularly its role in the protein-translocation process that is catalyzed by this energy-transducing complex.

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.

The molecular biological approach has provided important information toward understanding the complexities of the F0F1 ATPase. This article focuses on our recent results on the ATPase catalytic site contained in the beta subunit and the role of the gamma subunit in regulation of proton transport. We used a combination of affinity labeling and mutagenesis to locate several residues of the alpha and beta subunits in the catalytic site. Adenosine triphosphopyridoxal (AP3-PL) labeled beta Lys-155, beta Lys-201 and alpha Lys-201, suggesting that they are near the gamma-phosphate moiety of ATP. Turning to a mutagenesis approach we demonstrated that the two conserved residues, beta Lys-155 and beta Thr-156 in the glycine-rich sequence, are essential for catalysis. Finally, using pseudorevertant analysis, we positioned residue beta Gly-149 (also in the glycine-rich sequence) in proximity to beta Ser-174, beta Glu-192 (binding site for DCCD), and beta Val-198 (only three residues away from the AP3-PL binding site, beta Lys-201). Genetic studies suggested that the gamma subunit plays a role in regulation of catalysis and its coupling with proton conduction. We found that four mutations in the carboxyl-terminal region (gamma Gln-269-->Leu, gamma Gly-275-->Lys, gamma Thr-277-->end, or frameshift) had similar membrane ATPase activities but different ATP-dependent proton pumping and growth by oxidative phosphorylation. These results suggested a perturbation in the coupling between catalysis and proton translocation. We were able to clearly define the "uncoupling" by introducing mutations in the amino-terminal region of the gamma subunit. We were led to gamma Met-23-->Lys and Arg which resulted in an enzyme still regulated by delta microH+, but with profoundly inefficient coupling between ATPase catalytic sites and proton translocation in both ATP-dependent proton pumping and delta microH(+)-driven ATP synthesis. Second-site mutations in the carboxyl-terminal region of the gamma subunit reversed this effect.

A Crithidia fasciculata 83-kDa protein purified during a separate study of C. fasciculata trypanothione synthetase was shown to have ATPase activity and to belong to the hsp90 family of stress proteins. Because no ATPase activity has previously been reported for the hsp90 class, ATP utilization by C. fasciculata hsp83 was characterized: this hsp83 has an ATPase kcat of 150 min-1 and a Km of 60 microM, whereas the homologous mammalian hsp90 binds ATP but has no ATPase activity. Crithidia fasciculata hsp83 undergoes autophosphorylation on serine and threonine at a rate constant of 3.3 x 10(-3) min-1. Similar analysis was performed on recombinant Trypanosoma cruzi hsp83, and comparable ATPase parameters were obtained (kcat = 100 min-1, Km = 80 microM, kautophosphorylation = 6.3 x 10(-3) min-1). The phosphoenzyme is neither on the ATPase hydrolytic pathway nor does it affect ATPase catalytic efficiency. Both C. fasciculata and T. cruzi hsp83 show up to fivefold stimulation of ATPase activity by peptides of 6-24 amino acids.

The effects of 16 group-specific, amino acid-modifying agents were tested on ouabain binding, catalytical activity of membrane-bound (rat brain microsomal), sodium dodecyl sulfate-treated Na+,K(+)-ATPase, and Na+,K(+)-pump activity in intact muscle cells. With few exceptions, the potency of various tryptophan, tyrosine, histidine, amino, and carboxy group-oriented drugs to suppress ouabain binding and Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity correlated with inhibition of the Na+,K(+)-pump electrogenic effect. ATP hydrolysis was more sensitive to inhibition elicited by chemical modification than ouabain binding (membrane-bound or isolated enzyme) and than Na+,K(+)-pump activity. The efficiency of various drugs belonging to the same "specificity" group differed markedly. Tyrosine-oriented tetranitromethane was the only reagent that interfered directly with the cardiac receptor binding site as its inhibition of ouabain binding was completely protected by ouabagenin preincubation. The inhibition elicited by all other reagents was not, or only partially, protected by ouabagenin. It is surprising that agents like diethyl pyrocarbonate (histidine groups) or butanedione (arginine groups), whose action should be oriented to amino acids not involved in the putative ouabain binding site (represented by the -Glu-Tyr-Thr-Trp-Leu-Glu- sequence), are equally effective as agents acting on amino acids present directly in the ouabain binding site. These results support the proposal of long-distance regulation of Na+,K(+)-ATPase active sites.

A partial purification of the Epstein-Barr-virus nuclear antigen 2A (EBNA 2A) protein from the Epstein-Barr-virus-infected lymphoblastoid cell line, Cherry, has been designed. The main purification step was immunoaffinity chromatography, based on the mAb, 115E, directed towards the carboxy terminus of EBNA 2A. This was followed by chromatography over a Blue Sepharose column. According to silver-stained SDS/PAGE, EBNA 2A was estimated to be 20% pure. The purified fractions contained an ATPase activity that was inhibited by the mAb 115E. Immunopurification of six EBNA-2A-positive cell lines and their negative counterpart showed that only fractions from EBNA-2A-positive lines contained ATPase activity. In gel-filtration experiments EBNA 2A eluted as a 75-kDa protein in conjunction with an ATPase activity. The EBNA 2A protein was covalently labeled by the ATP analog [14C]5'-[p-(fluorosulfonyl)benzoyl]adenosine. The ATPase activity was found to be optimal in the presence of 0.25 mM MgCl2 or CaCl2, whereas, in the presence of MnCl2 and ZnCl2, the activity was only about 50% of the control. High concentrations of Na2VO3 and heparin do not interfere with the activity, while 2.5 mM NaF or 0.5 M NaCl give a 50% reduction of the activity. The Km for ATP and for GTP was 13 microM and 11 microM, respectively, and the Vmax for ATP was about six-times higher than with GTP as substrate. Other low-molecular-mass non-protein phosphate esters, such as phosphoserine or phosphothreonine inhibited the ATPase activity with a Ki of 18 and 32 microM, respectively. Phosphotyrosine had a Ki of 480 microM. Serine, threonine and tyrosine had no inhibitory effect on the ATPase activity.

The phosphorylation of the alpha-subunit of Na+/K(+)-transporting ATPase (Na,K-ATPase) by cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) and protein kinase C (PKC) was characterized in purified enzyme preparations of Bufo marinus kidney and duck salt gland and in microsomes of Xenopus oocytes. In addition, we have examined cAMP and phorbol esters, which are stimulators of PKA and PKC, respectively, for their ability to provoke the phosphorylation of alpha-subunits of Na,K-ATPase in homogenates of Xenopus oocytes. In the enzyme from the duct salt gland, phosphorylation by PKA and PKC occurs on serine and threonine residues, whereas in the enzyme from B. marinus kidney and Xenopus oocytes, phosphorylation by PKA occurs only on serine residues. Phosphopeptide analysis indicates that a site phosphorylated by PKA resides in a 12-kDa fragment comprising the C terminus of the polypeptide. Studies of phosphorylation performed on homogenates of Xenopus oocytes show that not only endogenous oocyte Na,K-ATPase but also exogenous Xenopus Na,K-ATPase expressed in the oocyte by microinjection of cRNA can be phosphorylated in response to stimulation of oocyte PKA and PKC. In conclusion, these data are consistent with the possibility that the alpha-subunit of Na,K-ATPase can serve as a substrate for PKA and PKC in vivo.

We discuss our recent results on the Escherichia coli F-ATPase, in particular its catalytic site in the beta subunit and regulation of H+ transport by the gamma subunit. Affinity labelling experiments suggest that beta Lys-155 in the glycine-rich sequence is near the gamma-phosphate moiety of ATP bound at the catalytic site. The enzyme loses activity upon introduction of missense mutations in beta Lys-155 or beta Thr-156 and changes catalytic properties upon introduction of other mutations. By analysis of mutations and their pseudo revertants, residues beta Ser-174, beta Glu-192 and beta Val-198 were found to be located near the glycine-rich sequence. The combined approaches of chemical labelling and genetics have been fruitful in visualizing the structure of the catalytic site. Analysis of mutations in the gamma subunit suggests that this subunit has an essential role in coupling catalysis with proton translocation.

The properties of divalent metal.ADP.vanadate (V(i)) complexes of the 6S extended and 10S folded conformations of gizzard myosin before and after UV irradiation have been studied. The half-lives of both 6S and 10S myosin.MgADP.V(i) complexes in the dark at 0 degrees C are on the order of 2 weeks. Brief irradiation with UV light, however, photomodified the enzyme as suggested by changes in the NH(4+)-, K(+)-, and Ca(2+)-ATPase activities, and destabilized the complexes. The 6S complex, when irradiated, released ADP and V(i) rapidly (t1/2 less than or equal to 1 min) as has been observed in comparable experiments with skeletal myosin subfragment 1 (S1) [Grammer et al. (1988) Biochemistry 27, 8408-8415]. The irradiated 10S complex released approximately 20% of the ADP and V(i) rapidly (t1/2 less than or equal to 1 min), but the remainder stayed trapped, possibly as the vanadyl (VO2+).ADP complex, for much longer times (t1/2 approximately 8 h). The site of photomodification was sought by reducing both photomodified 6S and 10S myosin with NaB3H4. Amino acid composition analyses identified [3H]serine as the only labeled residue(s), suggesting that the hydroxymethyl group of serine had been oxidized to an aldehyde as shown previously for photomodified skeletal myosin S1 [Cremo et al. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 6608-6611]. The 29-kDa NH2-terminal tryptic peptide from the heavy chain was found to contain essentially all of the [3H]serine. Preparations of 6S and 10S [3H]myosin were digested exhaustively with trypsin. An identical [3H]peptide was purified from each preparation and its sequence determined to be Glu169-Asp-Gln-Ser-Ile-Leu-(Cys)-Thr-Gly-[3H]Ser-Gly-Ala-Gly-Ly s183.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
