Net synthesis of adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) in energy-depleted cells of Escherichia coli was observed when an inwardly directed protonmotive force was artificially imposed. In wild-type cells, ATP synthesis occurred whether the protonmotive force was dominated by the membrane potential (negative inside) or the pH gradient (alkaline inside). Formation of ATP did not occur unless the protonmotive force exceeded a value of 200 mV. Under these conditions, no ATP synthesis was found when cells were exposed to an inhibitor of the membrane-bound Ca2+- and
Mg2+
- stimulated
adenosine triphosphatase
(
EC 3.6.1.3
), dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, or to a proton conductor, carbonylcyanide-p-trifluoromethoxyphenyl-hydrazone. Adenosine
triphosphatase
-negative mutants failed to show ATP synthesis in response to either a membrane potential or a pH gradient. ATP synthesis driven by a protonmotive force was observed in a cytochrome-deficient mutant. These observations are consistent with the chemiosmotic hypothesis of Mitchell (1961, 1966, 1974).

Adenosine
triphosphatase
(ATPase) activated by
Mg2+
or Ca2+ ions was detected in single mechanoreceptors (Pacini's corpuscles) of cat; addition of Ca2+ (10(-5)M) to Mg-ATP-ase increased the activity by the factor of 1.6. The activity optimum of Mg- or Co-ATPase was in the alkaline pH zone. A high substrate specificity of Mg, Ca-ATPase was shown. Parachlorinemercury-benzoate (5muM) considerably reduced the activity of Mg, Ca-ATPase, whereas oubain (10(-5)M) failed to affect it significantly. It is supposed that Mg, Ca-ATPase of Pacini's corpuscles was close to actomyosine -like proteins.

Adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) synthesis driven by an artificially imposed membrane potential in right-side-out membrane vesicles of Escherichia coli was investigated. Membrane vesicles prepared in the presence of adenosine diphosphate were loaded with K+ by incubation with 0.5 M potassium phosphate. Addition of valinomycin resulted in the synthesis of 0.2 to 0.3 nmol of ATP/mg of membrane protein, whereas no synthesis was observed after addition of nigericin. Addition of K+, dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, carbonylcyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone, or azide to the assay buffer inhibited ATP synthesis. Adenosine diphosphate and
Mg2+
were found to be required. Ca2+, which can replace
Mg2+
for the hydrolytic activity of the
Mg2+
-
adenosine triphosphatase
(
ATPase
) (
EC 3.6.1.3
), could not replace
Mg2+
in the synthetic reaction and, in fact, inhibited ATP synthesis even in the presence of
Mg2+
. Strain NR-70, a mutant lacking the Mg2+-ATPase, was unable to synthesize ATP using an artificially imposed membrane potential. Additionally, the Mg2+-ATPase was found to contain tightly bound ATP.

The Lubrol-dispersed guanylate cyclase from sea urchin sperm was purified and isolated essentially free of detergent by GTP affinity chromatography, DEAE-Sephadex chromatography, and gel filtration. After removal of the detergent, the enzyme remained in solution in the presence of 20% glycerol. The specific activity of the purified enzyme was about 12 mumol of guanosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic GMP) formed - min-1 - mg of protein-1 at 30 degrees, an activity about 4600 times that of a soluble guanylate cyclase purified recently from Escherichia coli (Macchia V., Varrone, S., Weissbach, H., Miller, D.L., and Pastan, I. (1975) J. Biol. Chem. 250, 6214-6217). The cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase activity was negligible and adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) phosphodiesterase was not detectable in the purified preparation. Cyclic AMP formation from ATP occurred at a rate of 0.002% of that of guanylate cyclase. In the absence of phosphodiesterase or guanosine
triphosphatase
inhibitors, 100% of the added GTP was converted to cyclic GMP. The purified enzyme required Mn2+ for maximum activity, the relative rates in the presence of
Mg2+
or Ca2+ being less than 0.6% of the rates with Mn2+. The purified enzyme displayed classical Michaelis-Menten kinetics with respect to MnGTP (apparent Km is approximately equal to 170 muM) in contrast to the positively cooperative kinetic behavior displayed by the unpurified, detergent-dispersed, or particulate guanylate cyclase. The molecular weight of the purified enzyme was approximately 182,000 as estimated on Bio-Gel A-0.5m columns equilibrated in the presence or absence of 0.1 M NaCl. The unpurified, detergent-dispersed enzyme also migrated with an apparent molecular weight of 182,000 on columns equilibrated with 0.5% Lubrol WX and 0.1 M NaCl, but it migrated as a large aggregate (molecular weight is greater than 5 X 10(5)) on columns equilibrated in the absence of either the detergent of NaCl. After gel filtration, the unpurified, dispersed enzyme still yielded positive cooperative kinetic patterns as a function of MnGTP. Na dodecyl-SO4 gel electrophoresis of the enzyme after the DEAE-Sephadex or the gel filtration steps resulted in two major protein bands with estimated molecular weights of 118,000 and 75,000. Whether or not these protein bands represent the subunit molecular weights of guanylate cyclase is unknown at present.

(1) The
ATPase
inhibitior protein has been isolated from rat liver mitochondria in purified form. The molecular weight determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis is approximately 9500, and the isoelectric point is 8.9. (2) The protein inhibits both the soluble
ATPase
and the particle-bound
ATPase
from rat liver mitochondria. It also inhibits
ATPase
activities of soluble F1, and inhibitor-depleted submitochondrial particles derived from bovine heart mitochondria. (3) On particle-bound
ATPase
the inhibitor has its maximal effect if incubated in the presence of
Mg2+
. ATP at slightly acidic pH. (4) The inhibitor has a minimal effect on Pi-ATP exchange activity in sonicated submitochondrial particles. However, unexpectedly the inhibitor greatly stimules Pi-ATP exchange activity in whole mitochondria while the low
ATPase
activity of the mitochondria is not affected. The possible mechanism of action of the inhibitor on intact mitochondria is offered.

Membrane-bound
ATPase
activities in chloroplasts of Euglena were examined. Ca2+- and
Mg2+
-dependent activities were relatively high in membrane preparations and could not be further activated by a number of procedures. The enzyme was found to be highly specific for purine nucleotides and was inhibited by the usual inhibitors of photophosphorylation. Km values of Ca2+ and
Mg2+
ATPase
for ATP were 2.5 and 2.1 mM, respectively. Both activities were competitively inhibited by ADP and inorganic phosphate. A relationship was found between Ca2+- or
Mg2+
-dependent
ATPase
activities and chloroplast completeness. The possibilities that these activities result from one enzyme depending on Ca2+ or
Mg2+
or from two different enzymes are discussed.

The mechanism of biosynthetic, transferase,
ATPase
, and transphosphorylation reactions catalyzed by unadenylylated glutamine synthetase from E. coli was studied. Activation complex(es) involved in the biosynthetic reaction are produced in the presence of either
Mg2+
or Mn2+ ; however, with the Mn2+-enzyme inhibition by the product, ADP, is so great that the overall forward biosynthetic reaction cannot be detected with the known assay methods. Binding studies show that substrates (except for NH3 and NH2OH which are not reported here) can bind to the enzyme in a random manner and that binding of the ATP-glutamate, ADP-Pi or ADP-arsenate pairs is strongly synergistic. Inhibition and binding studies show that the same binding site is utilized for glutamate and glutamine in biosynthetic and transferase reactions, respectively, and that a common nucleotide binding site is used for all reactions studied. Studies of the reverse biosynthetic reaction and results of fluorescent titration experiments suggest that both arsenate and orthophosphate bind at a site which overlaps the gamma-phosphate site of nucleoside triphosphate. In the reverse biosynthetic and transferase reactions, ATP serves as a substrate for the Mn2+-enzyme but not for the
Mg2+
-enzyme. The ATP supported transferase activity of Mn2+-enzyme is probably facilitated by the generation of ADP through ATP hydrolysis. When AMP was the only nucleotide substrate added, it was converted to ATP with concomitant formation of two equivalents of glutamate, under the reverse biosynthetic reaction conditions, and no ADP was detected. The reversibility of 180 transfer between orthophosphate and gamma-acyl group of glutamate was confirmed.
ATPase
activity of
Mg2+
and Mn2+ unadenylylated enzymes is about the same. Both enzymes forms catalyze transphosphorylation reactions between various purine nucleoside triphosphates and nucleoside diphosphates under biosynthetic reaction conditions. The data are consistent with the hypothesis that a single active center is utilized for all reactions studied. Two stepwise mecanisms that could explain the results are discussed.

The kinetic study of the C2+
ATPase
activity of lymphocyte plasma memebranes allowed some properties of this enzyme to be evidenced. The Ca2+-activated hydrolysis of ATP is independent of a non-specific alkaline phosphatase. The substrate of the
ATPase
activity is the chelate Ca2+- ATP.
Mg2+
may substitute for Ca2+ both as chelating ion and as activating ion. Several results suggest that we have only one
ATPase
, activated either by Ca2+-, or by
Mg2+
with less efficiency; both chelates hve the same Km; pH values for maximum activity and transition temperatures are identical; the effects of free ions are also the same, activation at low concentration and inhibition at high concentration.

The 13S coupling factor of oxidative phosphorylation from Alcaligenes faecalis has a latent
adenosine triphosphatase
(
ATPase
) function that can be activated by heating at 55 degrees C for 10 min at pH 8.5 in 50% glycerol. The specific activity increases from 0.1 to 20--30 mumol min-1 mg-1. Adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) is not required for stabilization at 55 degreesC when glycerol is present. Activation involves displacement of the endogenous
ATPase
inhibitor subunit (epsilon subunit), and readdition of this subunit results in deactivation. In the deactivation process the
ATPase
inhibitor subunit can be replaced by other cationic proteins such as protamine, histones, or poly(lysine).
Mg2+
and H+ also are effective deactivators. The fact that every positively charged substance tested deactivated the enzyme suggests that the inhibitor subunit is complexed with the enzyme at a site containing a surplus of negative charges. The activated enzyme is not labile, but it is salt labile, having a half-life of 2-3 min in 0.1 M KI at either 25 or 0 degrees C. The activated
ATPase
is also inhibited by aurovertin, 7-chloro-4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole (NBD), and by the cross-linking agent dimethyl suberimidate. Evidence for polymorphism comes from finding that the properties of the unactivated enzyme (intrinsic
ATPase
) are different in many ways from the properties of activated
ATPase
. With respect to the coupling factor's ability to hydrolyze ATP, the data in this study suggest that there are at least four distinct functional allomorphs of this enzyme: (1) the latent enzyme, which has no kinetically measurable
ATPase
activity, (2) intrinsic
ATPase
, which is catalyzed by a small percentage of the molecular population that has been activated by some natural mechanism, (3) activated
ATPase
, which has properties different from those of intrinsic
ATPase
, and (4) aged activated
ATPase
, in which some of the properties (Km for substrate, sensitivity to deactivation by
Mg2+
and H+) spontaneously change within 30 min.

A density gradient-purified microsomal membrane preparation from rabbit fundic gastric mucosa was used for a detailed study of the K+-stimulated
ATPase
and associated intermediate reactions. Membranes incubated with gamma-[32P]ATP show the rapid incorporation of 32P into phosphoprotein. Phosphoprotein levels were markedly reduced (1) when ATP hydrolysis went to completion or (2) upon addition of unlabeled ATP, thus suggesting the participation of a rapid turnover phosphorylated intermediate in the gastric microsomal
ATPase
. Addition of K+, Rb+ or Tl+ greatly reduced the level of the intermediate while stimulating
ATPase
activity; the observed affinities of these cations were similar for the effects on both
ATPase
and intermediate levels, with Tl+ greater than K+ greater than Rb+. Neither
ATPase
nor intermediate were stimulated by Na+, and ouabain was without effect on the reactions, thus differentiating this system from the (Na+ + K+)-
ATPase
. Addition of various inhibitors showed differential effects on the partial reactions of the gastric
ATPase
system. N-ethylmaleimide and Zn2+ showed characteristics of completely abolishing the K+-stimulated component of
ATPase
as well as the effects of K+ in reducing the level of intermediate, thus suggesting that these agents exert their inhibitory effect on a phosphoprotein phosphatase partial reaction. F- abolished the K+-stimulated
ATPase
, but its more complex effects on the intermediate suggested an additional reaction step within the domain of the phosphorylated intermediate. Results are consistent with a model system for the gastric microsomal
ATPase
involving a
Mg2+
-dependent protein kinase, a phosphorylated intermediate(s), and a K+-stimulated phosphoprotein phosphatase.
