The effect of chronic aluminium exposure (25 mg/kg b.wt.) was studied on the lipid composition and various membrane-bound enzymes in different regions of monkey brain. Aluminium (Al) administration caused a significant decrease in the total lipid, glycolipid, and phospholipid content of primate brain. Cholesterol levels and the phospholipid to cholesterol ratio were, however, markedly increased as a consequence of Al administration, thereby indicating a loss of membrane integrity. This was further confirmed when Al treatment was found to have a significant effect on the various membrane-bound enzymes in terms of decreased activities of Na+ K+ ATPase and acetylcholinesterase, along with a decrease in the activity of the myelin-specific enzyme, 2' 3'-cyclic nucleotide phosphohydrolase.

Myosin forms stable ternary complexes with Mg2+-ADP and phosphate analogues of aluminum fluoride (AlF4-), beryllium fluoride (BeFn), and scandium fluoride (ScFn). These complexes are distinct from each other and may mimic different transient states in the ATPase cycle [Maruta et al. (1993) J. Biol. Chem. 268, 7093-7100]. Regions of skeletal muscle myosin containing the highly reactive residues Cys 707 (SH1), Cys 697 (SH2), and lysine 83 (RLR) dramatically alter their local conformation when myosin hydrolyzes ATP, and these changes may reflect formation of a series of transient intermediates during ATP hydrolysis. We used the fluorescent probes 4-fluoro-7-sulfamoylbezofurazan, 2-(4'-maleimidylanilino)naphthalene-6-sulfonic acid, and trinitrobenzene-sulfonate, which bind to SH1, SH2, and RLR, respectively, to examine differences in local conformations within myosin.ADP.phosphate analogue (BeFn, Vi, AlF4-, and ScFn) complexes. It was observed that the ternary complexes had SH1 conformations similar to those seen on S-1 in the presence of ATP. In contrast, local conformations in the SH2 and RLR regions of S-1.ADP.BeFn were different from those in corresponding regions of S-1.ADP.AlF4- or ScFn. These results suggest that SH1 and SH2 move distinctly during ATP hydrolysis and that the local conformations of the SH2 and RLR regions more sensitively reflect different transient states.

The thermal unfolding of turkey gizzard smooth muscle myosin subfragment 1 (S1) and heavy meromyosin (HMM) in the absence of added nucleotides, in the presence of ADP, and in S1 or HMM ternary complexes with ADP and Pi analogs, orthovanadate (Vi), beryllium fluoride (BeFx), or aluminum fluoride (AlF4-), have been studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). It has been shown that the formation of these ternary complexes causes significant structural changes in S1 or in the heads of HMM which are reflected in a pronounced increase of the protein thermal stability. The effect of BeFx was less distinct than that of AlF4- or Vi. Phosphorylation of regulatory light chains (RLC) in S1 or in HMM had practically no influence on these effects. In general, the changes caused by various Pi analogs in smooth muscle S1 or HMM were similar to those observed earlier with skeletal muscle S1 devoid of RLC. It is concluded that RLC and their phosphorylation do not significantly affect the character of structural changes induced in motor domains of the HMM heads by the formation of ternary complexes HMM--ADP--Vi, HMM--ADP--AlF4-, and HMM--ADP--BeFx--stable analogs of the intermediate states of the HMM ATPase reaction, HMM.ADP.Pi and HMM.

We generated Chinese hamster ovary cells which are highly multidrug-resistant by selection in colchicine. Purified plasma membranes from these cells are enriched in P-glycoprotein (Pgp), up to 32% w/w of membrane protein. From plasma membranes we purified Pgp to homogeneity and reconstituted it in proteoliposomes. Both plasma membranes and purified reconstituted Pgp show drug-stimulated ATPase activity (approximately 20 s-1), comparable to other transport ATPases. These materials enable investigation and characterization of the catalytic sites and mechanism. Various approaches have been used, notably enzyme kinetics, photoaffinity and other covalent labelling, use of vanadate as transition-state analog, and inhibition by beryllium and aluminum fluoride. Both Pgp nucleotide sites hydrolyse MgATP and are of relatively low specificity and affinity for nucleotides. Trapping of nucleotide by vanadate in either site blocks catalysis at both sites; covalent inactivation of either site completely blocks turnover. Therefore the catalytic sites interact strongly, and it appears that when one site enters the transition-state conformation the other site is prohibited from doing so. A minimal reaction scheme for ATP hydrolysis has been determined. We have proposed an alternating catalytic sites scheme, in which drug-transport is coupled to relaxation of a high chemical potential conformation of the catalytic site (Pgp.MgADP.Pi) which is generated by the hydrolysis step itself. Photoaffinity labelling of Pgp catalytic sites has revealed equivalent Tyr residues which lie close to the adenine ring of bound MgATP in both sites.

2-[(2-Nitrophenyl)amino]ethyl triphosphate (NPhAETP) is the smallest ATP analogue that serves as a substrate for the actin-activated ATPase of myosin subfragment 1 (S1) and supports the development of active tension in skinned fibers. 2-(Phenylamino)ethyl triphosphate (PhAETP), in which the nitro group on the phenyl ring of NPhAETP is substituted by a H atom, is also a substrate of the actin-activated ATPase but does not support active tension [Wang, D., Pate, E., Cooke, R., and Yount, R. (1993) J. Muscle Res. Cell Motil. 14, 484-497]. We compared the S1-catalyzed hydrolysis of these analogues, their ability to support the formation of stable complexes with S1 and phosphate analogues, and their effect on S1 conformation. The analogues were hydrolyzed by S1 under various conditions both in the presence and in the absence of actin. In some cases, the effects of the two analogues are similar to each other and to those of ATP; they protect S1 from heat denaturation at 40 degreesC and inhibit the formation of the N-terminal 29 kDa fragment during the tryptic digestion of S1 and the modification of Lys-83 with trinitrobenzene sulfonate. However, in other cases, the effect of the two analogues is different; the effect of NPhAETP resembles that of ATP. NPhAETP and ATP decrease while PhAETP increases the rate of reaction of the SH1 thiol (Cys-707) with coumarin maleimide. The diphosphate forms of the two analogues induce a much smaller change in the near-UV CD spectrum of S1 than ADP. NPhAEDP forms stable complexes with S1 in the presence of beryllium fluoride (BeFx), aluminum fluoride (AlF4-), or vanadate (Vi) phosphate analogues, while the S1.PhAEDP complex is stable in the presence BeFx but much less stable with AlF4- and Vi. These results indicate that the S1.PhAEDP.Pi state is poorly populated during the PhAETP hydrolysis. The models of the atomic structure of S1 complexed by the two analogues show that PhAETP, unlike NPhAETP or ATP, does not form a H bond with Tyr-134 in S1, which is the probable structural reason of the lack of tension development, with PhAETP as the substrate.

In the presence of MgADP, a novel phosphate analogue of gallium fluoride (GaFn) forms a ternary complex with the myosin subfragment-1 (S-1), in the same way that has been previously reported with aluminum fluoride (AlF4-), beryllium fluoride (BeFn), scandium fluoride (ScFn), and vanadate (Vi), and this complex formation may mimic different states along the ATPase kinetic pathway. This novel complex has been characterized and compared with other complexes to ascertain whether it forms a transition-state analogue of myosin ATPase. The complex formed quickly, although several times slower than the BeFn complex. The half-life of the myosin.ADP.GaFn complex was about 50 h at 4 degreesC. The formation of the myosin.ADP.GaFn complex was accompanied by an increase in tryptophane fluorescence, similar to that observed upon the addition of ATP, but slightly lower than that of the M**.ADP.Pi complex. Upon addition of GaFn to acto-myosin.ADP, acto-myosin did not dissociate, and the S-1.ADP.GaFn complex was scarcely decomposed by actin, like the AlF4- and ScFn complexes but unlike the BeFn and Vi complexes. The conformations at the localized region of SH1, SH2, and RLR, which are very accessible to the binding of ATP, were studied by fluorescent labeling and chemical modification, and the results suggested that these conformations are very similar to that of the M**.ADP.Pi state. Small-angle X-ray solution scattering showed that the radius of gyration value decreases by about 3 A when S-1 forms an S-1.ADP.GaFn complex, suggesting that the shape of the complex becomes compact or rounded in shape, similar to that in the presence of ATP or complexes with other phosphate analogues, and thus mimics the myosin**.ADP.Pi state closely. The overall results may indicate that the complex mimics a somewhat different transient state from that of other complexes but has a similar global conformation along the ATPase kinetic pathway.

Lysosomes are cytoplasmatic organelles, delimitated by a single lipoprotein membrane, that contain several enzymes mostly belonging to the hydrolases in that they function mainly for intracellular digestion. Lysosomal internal pH is characteristically acidic and it is maintained around pH 4.5 by a proton pump, an ATPase, that uses energy from ATP hydrolysis to translocate H+ ions into lysosomes. In the presence of Al3+ the proton pump activity is markedly reduced compromising acidic vesicles functionality. Among different species utilized, Al2(SO4)3 and AlF3 were the most effective. Aluminum effect was not observed when the delta pH was produced artificially by nigericin.

Two 51-kD aluminum (Al)-induced proteins (RMP51, root membrane proteins of 51 kD) were recently discovered in an aluminum-resistant cultivar of wheat (Triticum aestivum) cv PT741 (Basu et al., 1994a). These proteins segregate with the aluminum resistance phenotype in a segregating population arising from a cross between Al-resistant cv PT741 and Al-sensitive cv Katepwa (Taylor et al., 1997). The proteins have been purified by continuous elution electrophoresis and analyzed by peptide microsequencing. Sequence analysis of the purified peptides revealed that they are homologous to the B subunit of the vacuolar H+-ATPase (V-ATPase) and the alpha- and beta-subunits of the mitochondrial ATP synthase (F1F0-ATPase). To confirm that these ATPases are induced by Al, ATPase activity and transcript levels were analyzed under Al stress. Both V-ATPase and F1F0-ATPase activities were induced by Al and responded in a dose-dependent manner to 0 to 150 microM Al. In contrast, plasma membrane H+-ATPase (P-ATPase) activity decreased to 0.5x control levels, even when plants were exposed to 25 microM Al. Northern analysis showed that the transcript encoding the B subunit of V-ATPase increased by 2.2x in a dose-dependent manner, whereas levels of the transcript encoding the alpha-subunit of F1F0-ATPase remained constant. The effect of Al on ATPase activity in other cultivars was also examined. The Al-resistant cultivar, cv PT741, was the only cultivar to show induction of V- and F1F0-ATPases. These results suggest that the V-ATPase in cv PT741 is responding specifically to Al stress with the ATP required for its activity supplied by ATP synthase to maintain energy balance within the cell.

Although aluminum (AL) toxicity has been widely studied in monocotyledonous crop plants, the mechanism of Al impact on economically important dicotyledonous plants is poorly understood. Here, we report the spatial pattern of Al-induced root growth inhibition, which is closely associated with inhibition of H(+)-ATPase activity coupled with decreased surface negativity of plasma membrane (PM) vesicles isolated from apical 5-mm root segments of squash (Cucurbita pepo L. cv Tetsukabuto) plants. High-sensitivity growth measurements indicated that the central elongation zone, located 2 to 4 mm from the tip, was preferentially inhibited where high Al accumulation was found. The highest positive shifts (depolarization) in zeta potential of the isolated PM vesicles from 0- to 5-mm regions of Al-treated roots were corresponded to pronounced inhibition of H(+)-ATPase activity. The depolarization of PM vesicles isolated from Al-treated roots in response to added Al in vitro was less than that of control roots, suggesting, particularly in the first 5-mm root apex, a tight Al binding to PM target sites or irreversible alteration of PM properties upon Al treatment to intact plants. In line with these data, immunolocalization of H(+)-ATPase revealed decreases in tissue-specific H(+)-ATPase in the epidermal and cortex cells (2--3 mm from tip) following Al treatments. Our report provides the first circumstantial evidence for a zone-specific depolarization of PM surface potential coupled with inhibition of H(+)-ATPase activity. These effects may indicate a direct Al interaction with H(+)-ATPase from the cytoplasmic side of the PM.

In order to characterize the domain organization of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase in different physiological states, limited proteolysis using three proteases (proteinase K (prtK), V8 and trypsin) was conducted systematically and quantitatively. The differences between E(2) and E(2)P were examined in our previous study and E(2)P was characterized by the complete resistance to all three proteases (except for trypsin attack at the very top of the molecule (T1 site)). The same strategies were employed in this study for E(1)ATP, E(1)PADP and E(1)P states. Because of the transient nature of these states, they were either stabilized by non-hydrolyzable analogues or made predominant by adjusting buffer conditions. Aluminum fluoride (without ADP) was found to stabilize E(1)P. All these states were characterized by strong (E(1)ATP) to complete (E(1)PADP and E(1)P) resistance to prtK and to V8 but only weak resistance to trypsin at the T2 site. Because prtK and V8 primarily attack the loops connecting the A domain to the transmembrane helices whereas the trypsin T2 site (Arg(198)) is located on the outermost loop in the A domain, these results lead us to propose that the A domain undergoes a large amount of rotation between E(1)P and E(2)P. Combined with previous results, we demonstrated that four states can be clearly distinguished by the susceptibility to three proteases, which will be very useful for establishing the conditions for structural studies.
