The optimal conditions are selected for electron-cytochemical detection of the ATPase activity in nuclei of the skeletal muscles of rabbits and nuclei of Vicia faba L. meristem. It is shown that the previous fixation of nuclei in the rabbit skeletal muscle for 10 min in a mixture of the buffer solutions of 4% glutaric dialdehyde and 4% neutral formalin (1:1) causes a decrease in their ATPase activity by 78% in the medium containing Mg2+ and by 34% - in the medium containing Ca2+; in nuclei of horse bean seedlings meristem it lowers respectively by 28 and 16%. Ions of lead in a concentration of 0.4 mM evoke a decrease in the ATPase activity in the medium containing Mg2+, in nuclei of the rabbit skeletal muscles by 35% and in nuclei of horse bean meristem by 15% in the medium containing Ca2+. The vaule of the residual activity is sufficient for detection of the product of ATP enzymic hydrolysis reaction by activity is sufficient for detection of the product of ATP enzymic hydrolysis reaction by the method of electronic cytochemistry. An increase in the Pb2+ concentration higher than 2.8 mM evokes nonenzymic hydrolysis of ATP. The ATPase activity under the electron-cytochemical study is found within the range of pH 6.3-8.5. The product of reaction forms most intensively at pH 7.2-7.5 in the medium with both Mg2+ and Ca2+.

The sodium-potassium activated adenosine triphosphatase (NaKATPase) activity of the rat cornea was investigated histochemically using a Pb2+-precipitation technique in which adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is used as substrate and two methods for potassium-dependent para-nitrophenyl-phosphatase (K-NPPase) activity. With all the three techniques used it was demonstrated that the sodium-potassium-activated adenosine triphosphatase (NaK-ATPase) activity is localized in the cell membranes of the endothelium whereas a much weaker activity was observed in the epithelium. When the Pb2+-technique was used, the epithelial cell membranes showed a weaker reaction in the presence of ouabain. This activity was only Mg2+-dependent and was presumably due to an Mg2+-dependent ATPase. The validity of the histochemical techniques for NaK-ATPase activity is discussed. The results emphasize the importance of the endothelium as the main site of Na+ transport in the cornea. Small amounts of the enzyme are also present in the epithelium, which seems to be rich in Mg2+-ATPase. Provided that careful controls are performed, all the methods give consistent results in the cornea.

The Ca2+-sensitive ATPase (adenosine triphosphatase) of human erythrocyte membranes is activated, not only by Ca2+ ions, but also by a series of other bivalent metal ions including Sr2+, Ba2+, Mn2+, Ni2+, Co2+, Cd2+, Cu2+, Zn2+ and Pb2+. The degree of activation is dependent on the radius of the ion rather than on its nature, in contrast with the dissociation constant of the enzyme--metal ion complex.

Two highly lead-sensitive ATPases, Na+,K+-ATPase and adenylate cyclase, can be demonstrated cytochemically by the lead precipitation technique in briefly prefixed tissue, provided that the free Pb2+ concentration in the incubation medium is kept below 0.1 mM by a heavy metal chelator. Under conditions suitable for Na+,K+-ATPase activity precipitation of final reaction product (lead phosphate) at the sarcolemma of cardiac muscle is abolished by 0.1-1mM ouabain. In contrast, reaction product deposition at the intramuscular part of the plasma membrane and at intracellular sites is not noticeably affected by the glycoside. These findings indicate either that the sarcolemma is the exclusive location of Na+,K+-ATPase in cardiac muscle or that the presence of the enzyme at other loci is masked by active Na+,K+-independent, ouabain resistant ATPases. Under conditions favoring adenylate cyclase activity, precipitation by Pb2+ of orthophosphate derived, with the help of added cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase and 5'-nucleotidase, from cyclic AMP formed from adenylyl imidodiphosphate (AMP-PNP) is seen after prolonged incubation in myocardial cells along the entire course of the plasma membrane and also at the transverse tubules and is particularly intense at the tight junction regions of the intercalated disks. Ouabain has no effect on these reactions. Reaction product deposition is also observed at the sarcolemma in red skeletal muscle and at the terminal cisternae of the sarcoplasmic reticulum in white skeletal muscle, where the reaction is intensified by adrenaline. Sarcoplasmic reticulum of cardiac and of red skeletal muscle exhibits only relatively weak staining attributable to cyclic AMP formation. These observations are in agreement with the results of tissue fractionation studies according to which the plasma membrane is the chief site of adenylate cyclase in heart and in red, but not white skeletal muscle.

Inhibition of adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase) by lead chloride (PbCl2) was studied in microsomal fractions or tissue homogenates of kidney, brain, and heart of several species, including humans. The concentration of PbCl2 causing 50% inhibition (I50) of Na+ + K+ ATPase activity varied from 8 X 10(-6) to 8 X 10(-5) M, depending on the species and organ of origin of the enzyme. The enzyme preparations derived from various parts of the kidney showed no differential sensitivity to PbCl2. These differences in sensitivity to lead were not related to specific activity of the enzyme or to the protein content of the preparations studied. Mg2+ ATPase, which contaminated the enzyme preparations to a variable degree, was 10--100 times more resistant to PbCl2 than was Na+ + K+-activated ATPase. The following more detailed studies were performed on the dog brain and/or kidney enzyme. The inhibition of microsomal Na+ + K+ ATPase was characterized by reversible kinetics. The inhibitory effect was antagonized by Na+, increased by Mg2+, and not altered by K+. ATP alone, or together with Mg2+, antagonized the inhibition. Disodium edetate prevented or reversed the inhibition. These inhibitory characteristics suggest that Pb2+ inhibits Na+ + K+ ATPase at the Na+-dependent phosphorylation site, and that ATP chelates Pb2+ in competition with Mg2+. Combining Pb2+ with ATP may not only result in a reduction of ATPase activity but also cause a relative ATP deficiency if lead is present in sufficiently high concentration.

Inorganic lead ion in micromolar concentrations inhibits Electrophorus electroplax microsomal (Na+ + K+)-adenosine triphosphatase ((Na+ + K+)-ATPase) and K+-p-nitrophenylphosphatase (NPPase). Under the same conditions, the same concentrations of PbCl2 that inhibit ATPase activity also stimulate the phosphorylation of electroplax microsomes in the absence of added Na+. Enzyme activity is protected from inhibition by increasing concentrations of microsomes, ATP, and other metal ion chelators. The kinetics follow the pattern of a reversible noncompetitive inhibitor. No kinetic evidence is elicited for interactions of Pb2+ with Na+, K+, Mg2+, ATP, or p-nitrophenylphosphate. Na+- ATPase, in the absence of K+, and (Na+ + K+)-NPPase activity at low [K+] are also inhibited. ATP inhibition of NPPase is not reversed by Pb2+. The calculated concentrations of free [Pb2+] that produce 50% inhibition are similar for ATPase and NPPase activities. Pb2+ may act at a single independent binding site to produce both stimulation of the kinase and inhibition of the phosphatase activities.

Inorganic lead ion, in micromolar concentrations, reversibly inhibits the sodium-plus-potassium-activated adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase) and potassium-activated p-nitrophenylphosphatase (NPPase) activities of microsomal fractions from electric organ, rat kidney, and rat brain. In the presence of 3 mM MgC12 and 3 mM ATP, the concentrations of PbC12 producing half-maximal inhibition of the ATPase from these tissues are 4 X 10(-6) M, 20 X 10(-6) M, and 55 X 10(-6) M, respectively. The corresponding values for inhibition of the NPPase are 10(-6) M, 53 X 10(-6) M, and 22 X 10(-6) M. PbC12 also stimulates the phosphorylation by [gamma-32P]ATP of a microsomal protein from all three tissues in the absence of added sodium ion. This reaction was extensively studied with electroplax microsomes. In common with the well-known Na+-dependent phosphorylation of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, the Pb2 -dependent reaction is inhibited by ouabain, specific for ATP, dependent on Mg2+, and yields and acid-stable phosphoprotein with a molecular weight of 98,000 in sodium dodecylsulfate. The Pb2+-dependent phosphoprotein, however, is not sensitive to K+. These observations are pertinent to the biochemistry and toxicity of inorganic lead in tissues and to the molecular mechanism of the cation transport enzyme.

Pb2+-stimulated phosphorylation of Electrophorus electricus electroplax (Na+ + K+)-adenosine triphosphatase is prevented by stoichiometric quantities of 2,3-dimercaptopropanol. The chelator in the same low concentrations does not block Na+-dependent phosphorylation. Both Pb2+-and Na+-dependent phosphorylation reactions show the same dependence on MgCl2. Phosphorylation in the presence of both Na+ and Pb2+ is cumulative suggesting that Pb2+ and Na+ bind at separate, independent sites. The enthalpy change due to binding of Pb2+ is about -1.76 kcal/mol. 32P-phosphopeptides obtained from pronase or pepsin digests of Pb2+-and Na+-dependent phosphoproteins are electrophoretically identical. Pb2+ does not stimulate but does inhibit ATP-ADP exchange activity under the conditions in which this activity is stimulated by Na+. Since the phosphorylation sites are identical, it is concluded that the differences in reactivity of the Na+- and Pb2+-phosphoenzymes are due to different conformational changes produced by binding of Na+ and Pb2+. The Pb2+-sensitive conformation is critical for Na+ specificity of phosphorylation, reversibility of phosphorylation, and for phosphatase activity but not for acceptor site phosphorylation by ATP. These findings have implications for enzyme reaction models.

Defective potassium excretion with clinical acidosis, associated with fixed moderate sodium wasting, has been found to be a common abnormality in lead nephropathy. Lead poisoning has been shown by others to be associated with depression of the renin-aldosterone system and of sodium and potassium activated adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase). Since these hormonal defects may contribute to the hyperkalemia and are reversible, lead poisoning should be treated aggressively. Management also requires proper regulation of dietary sodium, correction of acidosis, limitation of dietary potassium, and minimal use of antihypertensive agents, as well as the administration of allopurinal for urate control.

The catalytic activity of topoisomerase II is stimulated approximately 2-3-fold following phosphorylation by casein kinase II (Ackerman, P., Glover, C. V. C., and Osheroff, N. (1985) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 82, 3164-3168). In order to delineate the mechanism by which the activity of the enzyme is enhanced, the effects of casein kinase II-mediated phosphorylation on the individual steps of the catalytic cycle of Drosophila topoisomerase II were characterized. Phosphorylation did not affect reaction steps that preceded hydrolysis of the enzyme's high energy ATP cofactor. This included enzyme-DNA binding, pre-strand passage DNA cleavage/religation, the double-stranded DNA passage event, and post-strand passage DNA cleavage/religation. In contrast, the rate of topoisomerase II-mediated ATP hydrolysis was stimulated 2.7-fold following phosphorylation by casein kinase II. Since ATP hydrolysis is a prerequisite for enzyme turnover, it is concluded that phosphorylation modulates the overall catalytic activity of topoisomerase II by stimulating the enzyme's ATPase activity.
