A deviation from optimal conditions of the Na, K-ATPase reaction results in a drastic change in the plot: enzyme activity versus Na/K ratio. Acidification of the medium and a decrease in Mg2+ concentration and temperature results in two peaks on the curve at Na/K ratio of about 1 and at Na/K ratio greater than 4. The enhancement of pH of the medium and increase in Mg2+ concentration decreases the first peak and increases the second one. A comparison of these curves for hydrolysis of ATP, UTP and p-nitrophenylphosphate and temperature dependence of the hydrolysis of the substrates suggest that the anomalies observed may be accounted for the Na+ effect on the K-sites or K+ effect on the Na-sites under conditions when cation-binding sites are heterogeneous.

Free-flow electrophoresis was used to subfractionate membrane vesicles from calf thymocyte plasma membranes. The fractionation resulted in a separation of vesicle populations bearing four different enzymes: alkaline nitrophenyl-phosphatase (orthophosphoric-monoester phosphohydrolase (alkalin optimum) EC 3.1.3.1), gamma-glutamyltransferase (EC 2.3.2.2), (Mg2+ + Na+ + K+)-ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) and acyl-CoA:lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase (acyl-CoA:1-acylglycero-3-phosphocholine-O-acyltransferase, EC 2.3.1.23). The specific content of cholesterol and total phospholipid coincided with the distribution of membrane-bound protein. However, vesicles migrating towards the cathode had a higher molar ratio of cholesterol to phospholipid (0.75) compared to those migrating to the anode (0.55). Sodium dodecyl sulphate-gel electrophoresis of pooled vesicle fractions also demonstrates distinct differences in their protein pattern. Electron-micrographic thin sections show that the vesicle populations have a similar morphology and size distribution. These results are discussed in terms of heterogeneity of the original thymocytes, contamination with intracellular membranes and a heterogeneous structure of the plasma membrane.

Sarcolemma was isolated by fractionation of salt-extracted particles on two consecutive sucrose density gradients. Salt extraction of homogenates, rather than of washed particles, was found to preserve the activities of adenylate cyclase and ouabain-sensitive (Na+,-K+)-ATPase in the isolated sarcolemmal membranes. Purified sarcolemma contained substantial adenylate cyclase and guanylate cyclase activities that were stimulable by beta-adrenergic and muscarinic agonists, respectively. Significant ouabain-sensitive (Na+, K+)-ATPase activity as well as putative digitalis receptor activity was also present in sarcolemma. Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases of sarcolemma, both cAMP- and cGMP-dependent, displayed positive cooperativity of substrate interactions; Ca2+ ions were found to increase the activity of the GMP-dependent enzyme.

Kinetic properties of guanylate cyclase present in the washed particles, plasma membranes, and the soluble cytoplasm of heart and skeletal muscle are described; properties of the enzyme solubilized by Triton X-100 treatment of the particles or membrane fractions are also reported. It is apparent from the data that the membrane-bound guanylate cyclase in the cell may be regulated by acetylcholine, may exist as a metallo-protein with bound Mn2+ (essential for activity), and that Mg2+ regulates, whereas Ca2+ and nucleotides (especially ATP) modulate, guanylate cyclase activity. The findings also suggest that guanylate cyclase, similar to adenylate cyclase and (Na+, K+)-ATPase, is mainly located in the plasma membranes of heart and skeletal muscle.

1. Preincubation of purified (Na+ + K+)-ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) preparations from rabbit kidney outer medulla with 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) inhibits the (Na+ + 5+)-ATPase and K+-stimulated 4-nitro-phenylphosphatase activities. Phosphorylation of the enzyme by ATP and the Na+-stimulated ATPase activity are inhibited to the same extent as the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity, whereas the K+-stimulated 4-nitrophenylphosphatase activity is inhibited much less. 2. Titration with 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) in sodium dodecyl sulphate shows the presence of 36 reactive sulfhydryl groups per molecule (Na+ + K+)-ATPase (Mr = 250 000). 3. Treatment with N-ethylmaleimide, resulting in complete inhibition of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity, leads to modification of 26 sulfhydryl groups, whereas treatment with 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) results in modification of 12 sulfhydryl groups under the same conditions. 4. The reaction of N-ethylmaleimide with an essential SH-group is not prevented by previous blocking of sulfhydryl groups with 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid). 5. These findings indicate the existence of at least two classes of sulfhydryl groups on the enzyme, each containing at least one vital group. The difference between these classes consists in their different reactivity towards 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) and N-ethylmaleimide.

The activity of calcium-stimulated ATPase (E.C. 3.6.1.3) in homogenates of the secretory enamel organ of rat incisors was studied biochemically. ATP hydrolysis was estimated from the amount of inorganic phosphate liberated. An analysis of the total degradation of ATP was initially performed to ensure that the enzyme assays pertained to the original substrate, ATP, and were not influenced by reaction products formed. Standard incubations were run in tris-maleate buffer, pH 8.2, with 3 mM ATP, 3 mM Ca2+ and 0.5 mM R 8231 at 37 degrees C. The presence of R 8231 was necessary to inhibit nonspecific alkaline phosphatase. The calcium-stimulated ATPase was completely inhibited when heated at 55-60 degrees C for 5 min. The pH optimum was found to be 8.2. The hydrolysis was substantially dependent on Ca2+ and was fastest when the ATP:Ca2+ ratio was 1:1. High substrate concentrations inhibited the hydrolysis. The addition of 1 mM Zn2+ and Ni2+ to the incubation medium markedly inhibited the hydrolysis as did, though less strongly, p-hydroxymercuribenzoate, oligomycin, EDTA and ruthenium red. l-Cysteine, mercaptoethanol, iodoacetic acid and sodium azide were without effect. F- was without effect unless added to a final concentration above 15 mM to media where Ca2+ had first been allowed to react with ATP.

p-Nitrophenyl phosphate hydrolysis was studied at neutral pH with tissue preparations of the rat secretory and maturation enamel organs and dental pulp. By introduction of inhibitors to nonspecific alkaline phosphatase activity and stimulants to the K+-stimulated and ouabain-sensitive p-nitrophenyl phosphatase activity, the latter enzyme activity could be demonstrated. This enzyme activity is generally held to be representative of the enzyme sodium- and potassium-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase. The K+-stimulated activity was magnesium dependent and highly sensitive to fluoride. It was inhibited completely by 3 mM fluoride in the incubation medium and about 1 mM produced half the maximum inhibition. The K+-independent enzyme activity was inhibited 50-60% by fluoride in concentrations between 3 and 15 mM. The high fluoride sensitivity of the K+-stimulated activity may perhaps help to explain the vulnerability of dental tissues to fluoride.

An enzyme capable to split adenosine triphosphate (ATP) was shown to be firmly associated with mature herpes simplex virus particles purified from infected rabbit lung (ZP) cells. The enzyme localized in the viral envelope was markedly activated by bivalent cations, to the largest degree by Mg2+ at a pH optimum of 7.8--8.0. Na+ and K+ ions neither separately nor together showed any activating effect. Enzyme activity was not sensitive to the action of ouabain. No adenosine diphosphatase (ADPase) and adenosine monophosphatase (AMPase) activities were observed. ATPase activity was competitively inhibited by ADP. AMP and inorganic phosphate were without effect. The ATPase of nuclear membranes isolated from ZP cells exhibited similar properties but behaved differently to the action of sodium dithionite, dinitrophenol, oligomycin and gramicidin, as well as on heat inactivation. The origin of the virus enzyme is discussed.

Patulin (4-hydroxy-4H-furo[3,2-c]pyran-2(6H)-one), a carcinogenic lactone produced as a major metabolite by several fungi, inhibited the Mg++-dependent Na+-K+ activated adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity of mouse brain microsomal fractions with an estimated IC50 of 3.0 X 10(-4) M. Inhibition was concentration dependent. Hydrolysis of ATP was linear with both time and enzyme concentration either with or without patulin in reaction mixtures. Altered pH and activity curves for Na+-K+ ATPase demonstrated comparable inhibition by patulin in buffered acidic ranges through an optimum of 7.5, followed by a reduction of toxicity to this system at higher alkaline pH. Kinetic studies of cationic-substrate activation of Na+-K+ ATPase indicated noncompetitive inhibition with respect to ATP (at low affinity nucleotide-directed sites) and Na+ (in the presence of low, noninterfering concentrations of K+). Competitive inhibition with respect to activation of the Na+-k+-stimulated activity and K+-stimulated p-nitrophenyl phosphatase activity of the enzyme system was indicated by altered binding site parameters without change in apparent Vmax in the presence of patulin. Activity was partially restored by washing. Preincubation of patulin with dithiothreitol or glutathione protected the enzyme from inhibition. Results suggest that patulin exerted its effect on Na+-K+ ATPase either directly by interfering with K+ binding or indirectly by inducing a conformational change in the enzyme.

1. ATPase isolated from Rhodospirillum rubrum by chloroform extraction and purified by gel filtration or affinity chromatography shows three bands (alpha, beta and gamma) upon electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulphate. 2. Ca2+-ATPase activity of the preparation is inhibited by aurovertin and efrapeptin but not by oligomycin. Activity may be inhibited by treatment with 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzofurazan and subsequently restored by dithiothreitol. 3. The enzyme fails to reconstitute photophosphorylation in chromatophores depleted of ATPase by sonic irradiation. 4. Most of the active protein from the crude chloroform extract binds to an affinity chromatography column bearing an immobilised ADP analogue but not to a column bearing immobilised pyrophosphate. 5. In the absence of divalent cations, a component with a very high specific activity for Ca2+-ATPase is eluted from the column by 1.6 mM ATP. This protein migrates asa single band on 5% polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and only possesses three subunits. At 12 mM ATP an inactive protein is eluted which does not run on acid or alkali polyacrylamide gels and shows a complex subunit structure. 6. ATPase preparations prepared by acetone extraction or by sonic irradiation of chromatophores may also be purified 10-fold by affinity chromatography. 7. The inclusion of 5 mM MgCl2 or CaCl2 during affinity chromatography of chloroform ATPase increases the capacity of the column for the enzyme and demands a higher eluting concentration of ATP. 8. When the enzyme is more than 90% inhibited by efrapeptin or 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzofurazan, the binding characteristics of the enzyme are not affected. 9. 10 mM Na2SO3, which greatly stimulates the Ca2+- and Mg2+-dependent ATPase activity of the enzyme and increases Ki (ADP) for Ca2+-ATPase from 50 to 850 micron, prevents binding to the affinity column. Binding may be restored by the addition of divalent cations. 10. Na2SO3 increases the rate of ATP hydrolysis, ATP-driven H+ translocation and ATP-driven transhydrogenase in chromatophores. 11. It is proposed that anions such as sulphite convert the chromatophore ATPase into a form which is a more efficient energy transducer.
