The effects of the divalent cations Mg2+, Mn2+ and Ca2+ on the Brownian rotational motion of fluorescently labeled myosin, heavy meromyosin and myosin subfragment-1 were measured by the method of time-resolved fluorescence depolarization. When Mg2+ was added to solutions of myosin or heavy meromyosin and EDTA, their rotational mobility increased. Ca2+ had no effect. Mn2+ increased the mobility of heavy meromyosin but decreased that of myosin. None of these divalent cations effected the mobility of subfragment-1. The binding of heavy meromyosin to actin was affected very little by Mg2+ or EDTA over a wide range of conditions. Divalent cations appear to change the swivel about which the heads of myosin rotate, presumably by binding to light chain 2 (also called DTNB light chain). However, the heads are still able to bind actin in nearly the same way whether Mg2+ is present or not. The concentration of free Mg2+ for the mid-point of the change in heavy meromyosin mobility is in good agreement with that for EDTA activation of ATPase activity. This suggests that EDTA activation is due to removal of Mg2+ bound to myosin itself.

The effect of combined administration of ethanol and manganese on the brain tissue of rats was investigated to evaluate the role of alcohol ingestion in inducing susceptibility to manganese poisoning. Ethanol and manganese alone and the combination of the two were administered orally daily to the rats for 30 days. Almost identical increase in the brain contents of manganese in rats receiving the metal alone and in combination with ethanol indicates that ethanol administration does not influence the accumulation of manganese in that organ. The copper contents of brain also increased to almost the same extent in these two groups. Synergistic effect of ethanol and manganese was noticed on increasing the activity of ATPase and RNase while marked antagonistic effect was observed on the activity of MAO. The mechanism and the significance of these neurochemical alterations occurring after the administration of ethanol and manganese have been discussed.

The dynamic properties of cross-bridge movement were investigated in glycerol-treated muscle fibers under various conditions by analyzing tension responses to two types of length change. First, the fiber bundles were stretched linearly with time for 0.3 s from the rest length (L0) by 2.5% of L0, suddenly released, then fixed at L0 (sudden release of the slow stretch). Second, they were stretched for 0.01 s by 2.5% of L0, then held at the plateau length (a quick stretch). 1. The transient tension responses following both length changes were divided into three phases: (i) very quick recovery of tension (0 approximately 0.05 s), (ii) quick recovery (0.05 approximately 0.3-0.4 s), and (iii) gradual recovery (0.3-0.4 s approximately several seconds). 2. The effects of activating conditions on the rates of the quick phases (0 approximately 0.3-0.4 s) were not associated with those on the nucleoside triphosphatase [EC 3.6.1.3] rates: the rates of the quick phases increased with increase in temperature and Mg2+-ATP concentration, with decrease in Ca2+ concentration, and also on replacement of Mg2+-ATP by Mg2+-ITP or Mn2+-ATP. Only a small amount of ADP, 0.07 mol per mol of myosin (Fig. 24 in the preceding paper), was liberated during the quick recovery phases. 3. The remaining slow tension recovery was concluded to be associated with one cycle of ATP splitting, and progressed very smoothly. This suggests that most of the cross-bridges do not exist in a synchronously dissociated state during one cycle of ATP splitting.

Centrifuge transport, equilibrium dialysis, and electron paramagnetic resonance studies on the binding of Mn2+ to myosin revealed two sets of noninteracting binding sites which are characterized at low ionic strength (0.016 M KCl) by affinity constants of 10(6) M-1 (Class I) and 10(3) M-1 (Class II), respectively. At 0.6 M KCl concentration, the affinity of Mn2+ for both sets of sites is reduced. The maximum number of binding sites is 2 for the high affinity and 20 to 25 for the low affinity set. Other divalent metal ions displace Mn2+ from the high affinity sites in the following order of effectiveness: Ca greater than Mg = Zn = Co greater than Sr greater than Ni. The inhibitory effects of Mg2+ and Ca2+ upon the Mn2+ binding are competitive with inhibitor constants of 0.75 to 1 mM which is similar to that of the low affinity divalent metal ion binding sites. Exposure of myosin to 37 degrees partially inhibits Mn2+ binding to Class I parallel with inhibition of ATPase activity. The binding of Mn2+ to the high affinity binding sites is not significantly influenced by ADP or PPi, although Mn2+ increases the affinity of ADP binding to myosin at high ionic strength.

Metal (Me) and MeATP interactions with adenylate cyclases associated with rabbit ventricular particles and with a detergent-dispersed preparation from rat cerebellum have been studied. data were simulated to fit kinetic models in which an inhibitor (HATP or ATP) is added in constant proportion to the variable substrate (MeATP). The specific models considered were that the enzyme binds (a) MeATP as the substrate; (b) MeATP as the substrate and HATP or ATP as an inhibitor; (c) MeATP as the substrate and free Me as an activator; and (d) MeATP as the substrate, free Me as an activator, and HATP or ATP as an inhibitor. Both equilibrium-ordered and random (rapid equilibrium assumption) types of sequential kinetic models were considered. The various models were tested using cardiac particulate adenylate cyclase in the presence of either a phosphoenolpyruvate-pyruvate kinase or a creatine phosphate-creatine kinase ATP-regeneration system. Although the enzyme with either system appeared to bind Mg2+ as an activator, one or both ATP-regeneration systems also seemed to interact directly with adenylate cyclase, making clear interpretations difficult. With the phosphoenolpyruvate-pyruvate kinase system, kinetic patterns on double reciprocal plots were linear as a function of MgATP, but with creatine phosphate-creatine kinase, kinetic patterns were concave downward. The kinetic models were further tested using the detergent-dispersed cerebellar enzyme, a preparation with low adenosine triphosphatase activity and not requiring the addition of an ATP-regeneration system. Reciprocal plots were linear and intersecting as a function of either MeATP or Me (Me = Mg2+ or Mn2+), and secondary replots of slopes and intersecting as function of either MeATP or Me (Me = Mg2+ or Mn2+), and secondary replots of slopes and intercepts also were linear. These data indicate that the brain detergent-dispersed enzyme conforms to a bireactant, sequential mechanism where free cation is a required activator and free ATP is not a potent inhibitor.

Hydrolysis of extracellular ATP and other nucleoside phosphates by A-431 human epidermoidal carcinoma cells was studied. The hydrolysis of extracellular ATP by these cells required either Mg2+ or Ca2+, and either cation could be replaced by Co2+, Fe2+, or Mn2+. Nucleoside triphosphates (ATP, GTP, CTP, UTP, and dTTP), but not nucleoside diphosphates, were hydrolyzed by the cells with Km and Vmax values similar to those for ATP (0.9-1.1 mmol/l and 6-10 nmol Pi formed/10(6) cells, respectively). The hydrolysis of ATP was inhibited strongly by ATP-gamma S and AMPPNP, and weakly by AMPCPP and ADP-beta S, but not by AMPCPP or AMPCP. Since the hydrolysis of [gamma-32P]ATP was inhibited by all these nucleoside triphosphates, the binding site for ATP is presumed to be the same as that for the other nucleoside triphosphates. All these results indicate that ecto-ATPase activity associated with A-431 cells is due to ecto-nucleoside triphosphatase. The nucleotide specificity shown in the present study indicates that ecto-nucleoside triphosphatase associated with A-431 cells is a molecule different from P2-purinergic receptors which can be stimulated specifically with nucleoside phosphates like ATP, ADP, UTP, UDP, and GTP, but not by other nucleotides.

Receptor-activated Ca2+ influx was investigated in PC12 cells clones loaded with fura-2. Cells were stimulated in a Ca(2+)-free medium and studied after reintroduction of the cation or addition of Mn2+ into the medium. A first influx component, independent of receptor activation and sustained by depletion of the intracellular inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate sensitive Ca2+ store (store-dependent Ca2+ influx, SDCI), was identified by experiments with carbachol followed by atropine and with agents that induce store discharge without polyphosphoinositide hydrolysis: thapsigargin, an inhibitor of Ca(2+)-ATPase activity; ryanodine and caffeine, activators of the ryanodine receptor. A second component of Ca2+ influx, induced by carbachol and rapidly blocked by atropine, relies on receptor-effector coupling via G protein(s) different from that (those) involved in phospholipase C activation. SDCI and receptor-coupled influx are similar in their voltage dependence and insensitivity to forskolin and phorbol esters but they differ with respect to their Mn2+ permeability and their sensitivity to the SC 38249 imidazole blocker. The two components might play different roles. SDCI might act as a safety device to prevent Ca2+ store depletion whereas receptor-dependent influx might control physiological functions such as secretion and growth.

Both phosphointermediate- and vacuolar-type (P- and V-type, respectively) ATPase activities found in cholinergic synaptic vesicles isolated from electric organ are immunoprecipitated by a monoclonal antibody to the SV2 epitope characteristic of synaptic vesicles. The two activities can be distinguished by assay in the absence and presence of vanadate, an inhibitor of the P-type ATPase. Each ATPase has two overlapping activity maxima between pH 5.5 and 9.5 and is inhibited by fluoride and fluorescein isothiocyanate. The P-type ATPase hydrolyzes ATP and dATP best among common nucleotides, and activity is supported well by Mg2+, Mn2+, or Co2+ but not by Ca2+, Cd2+, or Zn2+. It is stimulated by hyposmotic lysis, detergent solubilization, and some mitochondrial uncouplers. Kinetic analysis revealed two Michaelis constants for MgATP of 28 microM and 3.1 mM, and the native enzyme is proposed to be a dimer of 110-kDa subunits. The V-type ATPase hydrolyzes all common nucleoside triphosphates, and Mg2+, Ca2+, Cd2+, Mn2+, and Zn2+ all support activity effectively. Active transport of acetylcholine (ACh) also is supported by various nucleoside triphosphates in the presence of Ca2+ or Mg2+, and the Km for MgATP is 170 microM. The V-type ATPase is stimulated by mitochondrial uncouplers, but only at concentrations significantly above those required to inhibit ACh active uptake. Kinetic analysis of the V-type ATPase revealed two Michaelis constants for MgATP of approximately 26 microM and 2.0 mM. The V-type ATPase and ACh active transport were inhibited by 84 and 160 pmol of bafilomycin A1/mg of vesicle protein, respectively, from which it is estimated that only one or two V-type ATPase proton pumps are present per synaptic vesicle. The presence of presumably contaminating Na+,K(+)-ATPase in the synaptic vesicle preparation is demonstrated.

The effect of regucalcin, a calcium-binding protein isolated from rat liver cytosol, on deoxyuridine 5'-triphosphatase (dUTPase) in the cytosol of rat liver was investigated. Addition of Ca2+ up to 5.0 microM to the enzyme reaction mixture caused a significant decrease of dUTPase activity, while Zn2+, Cd2+, Co2+, Al3+, Mn2+ and Ni2+ (10 microM) did not have an appreciable effect. The Ca(2+)-induced decrease of dUTPase activity was reversed by the presence of regucalcin; the effect was complete at 1.0 microM of the protein. Regucalcin had no effect on the basal activity of the enzyme. Meanwhile, the reversible effect of regucalcin on the Ca2+ (10 microM)-induced decrease of dUTPase activity was not altered by the coexistence of Cd2+ or Zn2+ (10 microM). The present data suggest that liver cytosolic dUTPase is uniquely regulated by Ca2+ of various metals, and that the Ca2+ effect is reversed by regucalcin.

The relationship between agonist-sensitive calcium compartments and those discharged by the Ca(2+)-ATPase inhibitor thapsigargin were studied in human platelets. In this context, calcium mobilization from intracellular pools and manganese influx was investigated in relation to the effect of altered cyclic-nucleotide levels. For maximal calcium release from intracellular stores, thapsigargin, compared to a receptor agonist like thrombin, requires the platelet's self-amplification mechanism, known to generate thromboxane A2. With this lipid mediator formed, thapsigargin released calcium and stimulated manganese influx in a manner similar to thrombin. Blocking the thromboxane receptor by addition of sulotroban (BM13.177) or, alternatively, increasing platelet cAMP or cGMP using prostacyclin or sodium nitroprusside, dramatically reduced the ability of thapsigargin to release calcium from intracellular compartments. The same experimental conditions significantly reduced the rate of manganese influx initiated by thapsigargin compared to thrombin. The experiments indicate that thapsigargin-sensitive compartments play only a minor role in inducing manganese influx compared to the receptor-sensitive compartment. Cyclic nucleotides accelerate the redistribution of an agonist-elevated platelet calcium into the thapsigargin-sensitive compartment, from which calcium can be released by inhibition of the Ca(2+)-ATPase. In human platelets, thapsigargin-induced calcium increase and influx were responsible for only part the calcium release resulting from inhibition of the corresponding ATPase; another part results from the indirect effect of thapsigargin acting via thromboxane-A2-receptor activation. Cyclic nucleotides are therefore an interesting regulatory device which can modify the thapsigargin response by not allowing the self-amplification mechanism of platelets to operate.
