Site-specific mutagenesis was used to investigate the functional roles of amino acids in the relatively hydrophobic sequence Ile-Thr-Thr-Cys-Leu-Ala-320, located at the M4S4 boundary of the sarcomplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase. Each of the residues was replaced with either a less hydrophogic, a polar, or a charged residue. Mutants Ile-315----Arg and Leu-319----Arg were devoid of any Ca2+ transport function or ATPase activity, while the mutant Thr-317----Asp retained about 5 and 7% of the wild-type Ca2+ transport and ATPase activities, respectively. These three mutants were able to form the ADP-sensitive phosphoenzyme intermediate (E1P) by reaction with ATP, but this intermediate decayed very slowly to the ADP-insensitive phosphoenzyme intermediate (E2P). In the mutants Ile-315----Arg and Leu-319----Arg, the level of E2P formed in the backward reaction with inorganic phosphate was extremely low, but hydrolysis of E2P occurred at a normal rate. These mutants, in addition, displayed a higher apparent affinity for Ca2+ than the wild-type enzyme. In the mutants Ile-315----Ser and Ile-315----Asp, the Ca2+ transport and ATPase activities were moderately reduced to 30-40% of the wild-type activities, but normal affinities for Ca2+, Pi, and ATP were retained, as was the low affinity modulatory effect of ATP. Mutation of Thr-316 to Asp, Thr-317 to Ala, Cys-318 to Ala and Ala-320 to Arg had little or no effect on Ca2+ transport or ATPase activities. Introduction of two negative and one positive charge by triple mutation of the Ile-Thr-Thr-317 sequence created a mutant enzyme that, although completely inactive, was inserted into the membrane, consistent with a location of these residues on the cytoplasmic side of the M4S4 interface. Our findings suggest that the amphipathic character of the S4 helix and/or the distribution of charges in S4 is important for the stability of the E2P intermediate.

In this study we show that the plasma membrane [H+]ATPase of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is phosphorylated on multiple Ser and Thr residues in vivo. Phosphorylation occurs during the movement of newly synthesized ATPase from the ER to the cell surface, as revealed by the analysis of temperature-sensitive sec mutants blocked at successive steps of the secretory pathway. Two-dimensional phosphopeptide analysis of the ATPase indicates that, although most sites are phosphorylated at or before arrival in secretory vesicles, some phosphopeptides are unique to the plasma membrane. Phosphorylation of plasma membrane-specific site(s) is associated with increased ATPase activity during growth on glucose. Upon glucose starvation, dephosphorylation occurs concomitantly with a decrease in enzymatic activity, and both are rapidly reversed (within 2 min) upon readdition of glucose. We suggest that reversible, site-specific phosphorylation serves to adjust ATPase activity in response to nutritional signals.

Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD) inhibits the activity of the F1F0-H+ ATP synthase of Escherichia coli by reacting with aspartyl 61 in subunit c of the FO sector to form a stable N-acylurea. The segment of chromosomal DNA which codes the subunits of the FO was cloned from four independently isolated DCCD-resistant mutants, and the sequence of the subunit c gene (uncE) was determined. An Ala24 to serine (A24S) substitution was found in the subunit c gene of each mutant. The A24S uncE gene was cloned into the BamHI site of a mutant derivative of plasmid pBR322. The A24S subunit c conferred DCCD resistance to a variety of recipient E. coli strains when it was overexpressed from this plasmid. A 7-base pair deletion beginning at position 132 of the plasmid vector was responsible for the observed overexpression. Hoppe et al. (Hoppe, J., Schairer, H. U., and Sebald, W. (1980) Eur. J. Biochem. 112, 17-24) had previously shown that mutation of subunit c Ile28 to threonine or valine resulted in DCCD resistance. The DCCD sensitivities of the membrane ATPase of these mutants and the A24S mutant were compared. DCCD sensitivity decreased in the order: wild-type much greater than I27V greater than I28T = A24S. The venturicidin sensitivities of wild-type and mutant membranes were also examined. The membrane ATPase of the I28T and I28V mutants was venturicidin resistant whereas the A24S substitution resulted in a hypersensitivity to inhibition by venturicidin. These results support a model in which subunit c folds in the membrane like a hairpin, where the region of residues 24-28 in transmembrane helix-1 is close to that of aspartyl 61 in transmembrane helix-2.

DnaK, the sole Escherichia coli member of the highly conserved 70-kDa heat shock protein (HSP70) family of proteins, autophosphorylates when incubated with ATP in vitro. We show that threonine-199 is the amino acid that becomes phosphorylated and we demonstrate that threonine-199 is critical for the ATPase activity of DnaK. We also report that both the ATPase and autophosphorylating activities of DnaK increase very strongly over the range of temperatures that is physiologically relevant for E. coli growth. The temperature dependence of either or both of these activities could be of significance with respect to the postulated role of DnaK as a molecular chaperone in helping cells ameliorate the deleterious consequences of elevated temperature. Furthermore, we postulate that DnaK plays a key role in regulation of the heat shock response by serving as a cellular thermometer that directly senses the environmental temperature.

We have previously demonstrated [Rihs, H.-P. and Peters, R. (1989) EMBO J., 8, 1479-1484] that the nuclear transport of recombinant proteins in which short fragments of the SV40 T-antigen are fused to the amino terminus of Escherichia coli beta-galactosidase is dependent on both the nuclear localization sequence (NLS, T-antigen residues 126-132) and a phosphorylation-site-containing sequence (T-antigen residues 111-125). While the NLS determines the specificity, the rate of transport is controlled by the phosphorylation-site-containing sequence. The present study furthers this observation and examines the role of the various phosphorylation sites. Purified, fluorescently labeled recombinant proteins were injected into the cytoplasm of Vero or hepatoma (HTC) cells and the kinetics of nuclear transport measured by laser microfluorimetry. By replacing serine and threonine residues known to be phosphorylated in vivo, we identified the casein kinase II (CK-II) site S111/S112 to be the determining factor in the enhancement of the transport. Either of the residues 111 or 112 was sufficient to elicit the maximum transport enhancement. The other phosphorylation sites (S120, S123, T124) had no influence on the transport rate. Examination of the literature suggested that many proteins harboring a nuclear localization sequence also contain putative CK-II sites at a distance of approximately 10-30 amino acid residues from the NLS. CK-II has been previously implicated in the transmission of growth signals to the nucleus. Our results suggest that CK-II may exert this role by controlling the rate of nuclear protein transport.

An endogenous ATPase inhibitor protein has been identified and isolated for the first time from plant mitochondria. The inhibitor protein was isolated from potato (Solanum tuberosum) tuber mitochondria and purified to homogeneity. The isolated inhibitor is a heat-stable, trypsin-sensitive, basic protein, with a molecular mass approximately 8.3 kDa. Amino acid analysis reveals a high content of glutamic acid, lysine and arginine and the absence of proline; threonine and leucine. The interaction of the inhibitor with F1-ATPase requires the presence of Mg2(+)-ATP in the incubation medium. The ATPase activity of isolated F1 is inhibited to 50% in the presence of 14 micrograms inhibitor/mg F1. A stoichiometry of 1.3 mol inhibitor/mol F1 for complete inhibition can be calculated from this value. The potato ATPase inhibitor is also a potent inhibitor of the ATPase activity of the isolated yeast F1. The inhibitor resembles the ATPase inhibitors of yeast and mammalian mitochondria, and does not seem to be related to the inhibitory peptide, epsilon subunit, of chloroplast ATPase.

Glu309, Glu771, Asn796, Thr799, Asp800, and Glu908 (ligands 1 to 6, respectively) appear to form the high affinity Ca2(+)-binding sites of the Ca2(+)-ATPase. The plasticity of the Ca2(+)-binding sites was tested by separate replacement of each of the ligands with a structurally similar oxygen-containing residue using site-specific mutagenesis. Mutant cDNAs were transfected into COS-1 cells, and ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport or partial reactions were studied in microsomes containing the expressed Ca2(+)-ATPases. In most cases where amino acid substitutions were carried out, the expressed enzymes lacked Ca2+ transport function and Ca2(+)-dependent phosphorylation by ATP. Furthermore, the mutant enzymes were phosphorylated by inorganic phosphate, even in the presence of Ca2+, which inhibits phosphorylation of the wild-type enzyme possessing intact Ca2(+)-binding sites. On mutant, however, containing an isosteric replacement of Glu by Gln at ligand 6, exhibited wild-type levels of Ca2+ transport activity and Ca2+ affinity. Two mutants exhibited properties consistent with a reduction in Ca2+ affinity. In the mutant in which Thr was replaced by Ser at ligand 4, Ca2+ transport activity was 70% of wild-type, while half-maximal activation by Ca2+ occurred at 0.8 microM as compared to 0.3 microM for the wild-type enzyme. In the mutant Glu309----Asp at ligand 1, Ca2+ transport activity was lost, but Ca2(+)-activated phosphorylation by ATP was retained. The concentration of Ca2+ required to activate phosphorylation was increased about 10-fold, however, compared to wild type. These results support our hypothesis that ligands 1 to 6, believed to reside within the transmembrane domain, interact with Ca2+ ions during the transport process. The roles of 12 other oxygen-containing residues and of His278 located in the transmembrane domain were also examined by mutation. Although the oxygen-containing side chains of these residues are potential Ca2+ ligands, their replacement with nonpolar amino acids did not abolish Ca2+ transport function, leading to the conclusion that they are not essential ligands for high affinity Ca2+ binding by the Ca2+ pump.

Cloned uncG genes (wild-type or in vitro mutagenized) for the Escherichia coli gamma subunit were introduced into the uncG mutant Gln-14----end), and the functions of the mutant subunits were studied. The F1's with Ala-283----end and Thr-277----end mutant gamma subunits had 63 and 14% of the wild-type ATPase activity, respectively, and mutants with these subunits showed reduced growth by oxidative phosphorylation, indicating that the 10 residues at the carboxyl terminus (286th residue) are important, but dispensable, for catalysis. On the other hand, F1 with a Gln-269----end gamma subunit was inactive. Replacement of conserved residues (Gln-269, Thr-273, or Glu-275) between Gln-269 and Leu-276 gave enzymes with significantly reduced ATPase activity (2-41% of that of the wild-type) and lower ATP-driven proton conduction. Thus these residues are required for the normal catalytic activity of F1, although they are not absolutely essential. Membranes with amino acid replacements (Thr-277----end, Gln-269----Leu, or Glu-275----Lys) and the frameshift mutation (downstream of Thr-277) had about 15% of the wild-type ATPase activity, but showed different degrees of ATP-dependent H+ translocation and growth yield by oxidative phosphorylation, suggesting that the gamma subunit, especially its carboxyl-terminal region, functions in coupling between catalysis and H+ translocation.

The sequences Thr-Gly-Glu-Ser184 and Asp-Gln-Ser178 and individual residues Asp149, Asp157, and Asp162 in the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2(+)-ATPase are highly conserved throughout the family of cation-transporting ATPases. Mutant Thr181----Ala, Gly182----Ala, Glu183----Ala, and Glu183----Gln, created by in vitro mutagenesis, were devoid of Ca2+ transport activity. None of these mutations, however, affected phosphorylation of the enzyme by ATP in the presence of Ca2+ or by inorganic phosphate in the absence of Ca2+, indicating that the high affinity Ca2(+)-binding sites and the nucleotide-binding sites were intact. In each of these mutants, the ADP-sensitive phosphoenzyme intermediate (E1P) decayed to the ADP-insensitive form (E2P) very slowly relative to the wild-type enzyme, whereas E2P decayed at a rate similar to that of the wild-type enzyme. Thus, the inability of the mutants to transport Ca2+ was accounted for by an apparent block of the transport reaction at the E1P to E2P conformational transition. These results suggest that Thr181, Gly182, and Glu183 play essential roles in the conformational change between E1P and E2P. Mutation of Ser184, Asp157, or Ser178 had little or no effect on either Ca2+ transport activity or expression. Mutations of Asp149, Asp162, and Gln177, however, were poorly expressed. Where expression could be measured, in mutations to Asp162 and Gln177, Ca2+ transport activity was essentially equivalent to that of the wild-type enzyme.

At concentrations from 10 to 100 mM, inorganic phosphate and sulfate stimulate the activity of the H(+)-ATPase purified from the wild type Schizosaccharomyces pombe plasma membranes. Compared to the wild type ATPase, the stimulation by phosphate is more pronounced in the mutant pma1-1 (Gly-268----Asp) and is much reduced in the mutant pma1-2 (Lys-250----Thr) enzymes. In contrast, the inhibition by trifluoperazine is less pronounced in the pma1-1 mutant than in the wild type or pma1-2 mutant. The mutant pma1-2 ATPase activity is markedly stimulated by 10-20% dimethyl sulfoxide, which has a limited effect on the wild type and pma1-1 enzymes. These data indicate that the protein domain located in the beta-strand sector, including Lys-250 and Gly-268, is located in the active site and that its hydrophobic character influences the interactions of the yeast H(+)-ATPase with inorganic phosphate, as well as with the hydrophobic inhibitor trifluoperazine or the hydrophobic solvent dimethyl sulfoxide.
