Previous investigation showed two distinct ATP-dependent proton-transporting systems in microsomal vesicle from radish seedlings, one inhibited by vanadate and one inhibited by NO-3. On the bases of the effects of these inhibitors we could discriminate two distinct ATPase activities in the same material. The NO-3 sensitive activity was separated from the vanadate-sensitive activity and partially purified by a single-step chromatographic method, which lead to approx 35-fold purification from the microsomes and to a specific activity of 2.3 mumol Pi X min-1 X mg protein-1, at 30 degrees C. The partially purified activity was specific for ATP, some activity being observed toward GTP, and even less toward CTP, UTP and ITP. No significant Pi hydrolysis was found with ADP, AMP, p-nitrophenylphosphate and glucose 6-phosphate. ADP but not AMP was inhibiting in the presence of ATP. The activity was dependent on divalent cations in the order of preference: Mg2+ greater than Mn2+ greater than Co2+ greater than Ca2+ greater than Zn2+. The activity was unaffected by monovalent cations, strongly activated by Cl-, inhibited by 90% by 50 mM NO-3, virtually unaffected by oligomycin and NaN3. At least 90% of the activity was abolished in the presence of each: 10 microM N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, 10 microM erythrosin B, 10 mu mersalyl, 100 microM trimethyltin, 100 microM diethylstilbestrol, 100 microM N-ethylmaleimide. No inhibition has been found in the presence of Ca2+, at a concentration blocking the vanadate-sensitive activity. Nigericin, gramicidin and carbonylcyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone stimulated the activity of this preparation after it was incubated in the presence of sonicated phospholipids, suggesting the capacity of the ATPase to function as a H+-transporting system. All characteristics mentioned were closely similar to those described in the vacuolar ATPases.

F1-ATPase of rat liver was examined for its capacity to interact with both metal ions and nucleotides and for the effect of covalent ATPase inhibitors on these interactions. As isolated, rat liver F1 contains about 2 mol of Mg2+/mol of F1, 1 mol of which can be removed or exchanged. The remaining mole of Mg2+ per mole of F1 remains very tightly associated with F1 and is recovered in the alpha gamma fraction after cold denaturation. Rat liver F1 also contains as isolated a nearly equivalent amount of nucleotide (approximately 1.7 mol/mol of F1) which is readily removed by incubation at room temperature followed by column centrifugation. The "2 Mg2+ enzyme" binds almost 3 mol of 5'-adenylyl imidodiphosphate (AMP-PNP)/mol of F1 in the presence or absence of added divalent cation. When divalent cation is present as Co2+, an equivalent activator to Mg2+ in the ATPase reaction, 1 mol of F1 binds 3 mol of both AMP-PNP and Co2+. under these conditions, the very tight Mg2+ site remains loaded, the exchangeable Mg2+ site is replaced with AMP-PNPCo, and two additional AMP-PNPCo sites are filled. At this point, ADP can be loaded onto the enzyme as a fourth nucleotide at a site separate and distinct from the AMP-PNP sites. Significantly, rat liver F1 contains only a single readily detectable ADP binding site in the presence or absence of divalent cation.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The purified proton ATPase of chromaffin granules contains five different polypeptides denoted as subunits I to V in the order of decreasing molecular weights of 115,000, 72,000, 57,000, 39,000, and 17,000, respectively. The purified enzyme was reconstituted as a highly active proton pump, and the binding of N-ethylmaleimide and nucleotides to individual subunits was studied. N-Ethylmaleimide binds to subunits I, II, and IV, but inhibition of both ATPase and proton pumping activity correlated with binding to subunit II. In the presence of ADP, the saturation curve of ATP changed from hyperbolic to a sigmoid shape, suggesting that the proton ATPase is an allosteric enzyme. Upon illumination of the purified enzyme in the presence of micromolar concentrations of 8-azido-ATP, alpha-[35S]ATP, or alpha-[32P]ATP subunits I, II, and IV were labeled. However, at concentrations of alpha-[32P]ATP below 0.1 microM, subunit II was exclusively labeled in both the purified and reconstituted enzyme. This labeling was absolutely dependent on the presence of divalent cations, like Mg2+ and Mn2+, while Ca2+, Co2+, and Zn2+ had little or no effect. About 0.2 mM Mg2+ was required to saturate the reaction even in the presence of 50 nM alpha-[32P]ATP, suggesting a specific and separate Mg2+ binding site on the enzyme. Nitrate, sulfate, and thiocyanate at 100 mM or N-ethylmaleimide and 7-chloro-4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole at 100 microM prevented the binding of the nucleotide to subunit II. The labeling of this subunit was effectively prevented by micromolar concentrations of three phosphonucleotides including those that cannot serve as substrate for the enzyme. It is concluded that a tightly bound ADP on subunit II is necessary for the activity of the enzyme.

Inhibition of glutamate transport is a potential indirect cause of excitotoxic damage by glutamate in the CNS. The mercuric ion, the form in which metallic mercury vapor is believed to exert its neurotoxic action, is a known inhibitor of amino acid transport. This study examines the specificity with which HgCl2 inhibits glutamate transport in mouse cerebral astrocytes by means of comparative measurements of 2-deoxyglucose uptake. Uptake of 2-deoxyglucose is an index of glucose utilization that reflects the function of Na+,K+-ATPase and hexokinase, and is sensitive to Na+ entry. The kinetic parameters, ionic dependence, and substrate specificity of glutamate transport in these astrocyte cultures were consistent with the commonly occurring system designated X-AG. Acute exposure to 0.5 microM HgCl2 inhibited by 50% the initial rate of glutamate transport but did not affect 2-deoxyglucose uptake. Glutamate transport was not detectably inhibited by Al2+, Pb2+, Co2+, Sr2+, Cd2+, or Zn2+ (10 microM as chlorides). The inhibitory action of 0.5 microM HgCl2 on glutamate transport was rapidly reversible. The action of 1-2 microM HgCl2 was progressive when exposures were extended to 1-3 h, and was more slowly reversible. These results suggest that Hg2+ can impair glial glutamate transport reversibly at exposure levels that do not compromise some other vital cell functions.

The Mr 170,000 to 180,000 membrane glycoprotein associated with multidrug resistance (P-glycoprotein) is involved in drug transport mechanisms across the plasma membrane of multidrug-resistant cells. We have recently reported the purification of P-glycoprotein. The purified P-glycoprotein was found to have an ATPase activity, which might be coupled with the active efflux of anticancer drugs. In the present study, we have further studied the properties of the P-glycoprotein ATPase activity by an immobilized enzyme assay procedure using a P-glycoprotein-antibody-Protein A-Sepharose complex. GTP was also hydrolyzed by the P-glycoprotein, although less efficiently than ATP. The ATPase activity of P-glycoprotein had an optimal pH range around neutrality (pH 6.5-7.4). The detergent concentration of 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethyl-ammonio]-1-propane sulfonate used for protein solubilization was essential for enzyme recovery. Maximum activity was obtained when 0.1-0.2% 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethyl-ammonio]-propane sulfonate was used, while higher concentrations markedly inhibited the ATPase activity. The ATPase activity was dependent on Mg2+; maximum activity was obtained at 2-10 mM. Manganese and cobalt could substitute for magnesium as ionic cofactors. Divalent cations such as Ca2+, Zn2+, Ni2+, Cd2+, and Cu2+ inhibited the Mg2+-catalyzed ATP hydrolysis. N-Ethylmaleimide and vanadate inhibited the ATPase activity, while sodium azide or ouabain had no effect. Anticancer agents such as vincristine and Adriamycin did not affect the enzyme activity. In contrast, verapamil and trifluoperazine, agents which inhibit active drug efflux and restore drug sensitivity in resistant cells, caused an increase in the P-glycoprotein ATPase activity suggesting that P-glycoprotein might be the target molecule of these agents.

The properties of ATPase activity were examined in the intact cells of yeast. The activity was stimulated by Mg2+, Mn2+ and Co2+. The activity was inhibited by NaN3 and by high concentrations of NaF, NaVO3 and PCMB. Optimal pH for the activity was approximately 8. The maximum value of the activity was obtained in the cells at the early stationary phase and it decreased in 3 hr after transfer to sporulation medium.

The microsomal Mg-ATPase from various rat tissues was compared. After fractionating the microsomal vesicles by sucrose gradient centrifugation, the highest specific activity of the Mg-ATPase was found in the low-density vesicles which contained plasma membrane. A large fraction (25-90%) of the microsomal Ca-independent Mg-ATPase found in each tissue had the following properties: (1) the Km for ATP was 0.2 mM; (2) the rate of ATP hydrolysis by the Mg-ATPase was nonlinear due to an ATP-stimulated inactivation of the enzyme; (3) wheat germ agglutinin, concanavalin A, glutaraldehyde, and antiserum prevented inactivation induced by ATP or AdoPP[NH]P; (4) detergents at relatively low detergent:protein ratios increased the rate of inactivation with little change in the initial rate of ATP hydrolysis; (5) the Mg-ATPase was inactivated by irradiation in the presence of 8-azido ATP. (6) in addition to ATP, the Mg-ATPase was able to hydrolyze CTP, GTP, UTP, ITP, and GTP but was unable to hydrolyze any of the 10 nonnucleotide phosphocompounds which were tested; (7) the bivalent cation requirement of the Mg-ATPase could be provided by Mg2+, Ca2+, Mn2+, Zn2+, or Co2+ but the enzyme was inactive in the presence of Cu2+, Sr2+, Ba2+, or Be2+; (8) the Mg-ATPase activity was not altered by ionophores or inhibitors of the Na,K-ATPase, the Ca,Mg-ATPase or the mitochondrial F1ATPase. These data suggest that a major portion of the microsomal, basal Mg-ATPase activity is due to one unique enzyme found in most if not all tissues.

The ATPase activity of native dynein 1 from sea urchin sperm flagella is activated reversibly by inorganic monovalent chlorides with the magnitude of activation being nearly independent of the cation below 0.3 M. At higher concentrations, activation increases in the order LiCl greater than NH4Cl greater than NaCl greater than KCl, with the maximum occurring at about 0.8 M in all cases. The sodium halides activate reversibly in the order NaI greater than NaBr greater than NaCl, but NaF is strongly inhibitory. The presence of the organic anions formate, acetate, or propionate favors the native low ATPase activity state, with lithium acetate giving little activation at up to 1 M and sodium acetate partially reversing the activation due to simultaneous presence of 0.6 M NaCl. The sedimentation rate of the dynein does not change between 0.2 and 0.8 M NaCl or sodium acetate, suggesting that the effects of the anions on ATPase activity are due to local changes near the catalytic site, rather than to large-scale changes in the molecular structure. All the agents that activate the dynein ATPase, either reversibly (halides) or irreversibly (Triton X-100), decrease its sensitivity to inhibition by vanadate, consistent with ATPase activation being the result of a decreased stability of the dynein. ADP.Pi kinetic intermediate that is thought to bind vanadate at the gamma-Pi site and act as a dead-end kinetic block. Although many divalent cations, including Mg2+, Mn2+, Fe2+, Co2+, Ni2+, Zn2+, Ca2+, and Sr2+, can support dynein ATPase activity, the magnitude of ATPase increase observed upon treatment with Triton X-100 is greatest with Mg2+ and Mn2+, which are also the only cations capable of supporting the motility of demembranated flagella at rates similar to those observed in vivo.

The effects of various divalent cations on the Ca2+ uptake by microsomes from bovine aortic smooth muscle were studied. High concentrations (1 mM) of Co2+, Zn2+, Mn2+, Fe2+, and Ni2+ inhibited neither the Ca2+ uptake by the microsomes nor the formation of the phosphorylated intermediate (E approximately P) of the Ca2+,Mg2+-ATPase of the microsomes. The cadmium ion, however, inhibited both the Ca2+ uptake and the E approximately P formation by the microsomes. Dixon plot analysis indicated Cd2+ inhibited (Ki = 135 microM) the Ca2+ dependent E approximately P formation in a non-competitive manner. The inhibitory effect of Cd2+ was lessened by cysteine or dithiothreitol. The strontium ion inhibited the Ca2+ uptake competitively, while the E approximately P formation increased on the addition of Sr2+ at low Ca2+ concentrations. At a low Ca2+ concentration (1 microM), Sr2+ was taken up by the aortic microsomes in the presence of 1 mM ATP. It is thus suggested that Sr2+ replaces Ca2+ at the Ca2+ binding site on the ATPase.

Irradiation of soluble dynein 1 from sea urchin sperm flagella at 365 nm in the presence of MgATP and 0.05-50 microM vanadate (Vi) cleaves the alpha and beta heavy chains (Mr 428,000) at their V1 sites to give peptides of Mr 228,000 and 200,000, without the nonspecific side effects produced by irradiation at 254 nm as described earlier (Lee-Eiford, A., Ow, R. A., and Gibbons, I. R. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 2337-2342). The decrease in intact heavy chain material is biphasic; in 10 microM Vi, approximately 80% occurs with a half-time of 7 min and the remainder with a half-time of about 90 min, and the yield of cleavage peptides is better than 90%. Loss of dynein ATPase activity appears to be a direct result of the cleavage process and is not significantly affected by the presence of up to 0.1 M cysteamine (CA, 60-23-1) or 2-aminoethyl carbamimidothioic acid dihydrobromide (CA, 56-10-0) as free radical trapping agents. The concentration of Vi required for 50% maximal initial cleavage rate is 4.5 microM, while that for 50% ATPase inhibition is 0.8 microM, both in a 0.6 M NaCl medium. In the presence of 20 microM Vi, CTP and UTP support cleavage at about half the rate of ATP, whereas GTP and ITP support cleavage only if the Vi concentration is raised to about 200 microM. Substitution of any of the transition metal cations Cr2+, Mn2+, Fe2+, or Co2+ for the usual Mg2+ suppresses the photocleavage, presumably by quenching the excited chromophore prior to scission of the heavy chain. The photocleaved dynein 1 binds to dynein-depleted flagella similarly to intact dynein 1, but upon reactivation of the flagella with 1 mM ATP their motility is partially inhibited, rather than being augmented as with intact dynein. These results indicate that Vi acts as a photosensitizing catalyst and suggest that the cleavage proceeds through excitation of Vi bound to dynein at the hydrolytic ATP binding site on each heavy chain, probably in a dynein X MgADP X Vi complex. The exquisite specificity of Vi-sensitized photocleavage will aid the peptide mapping of dynein heavy chains and may be of broader use in studies of protein structure.
