The properties of Mg2+-ATPase in the vacuole of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were studied, using purified intact vacuoles and right-side-out vacuolar membrane vesicles prepared by the method of Y. Ohsumi and Y. Anraku ((1981) J. Biol. Chem. 256, 2079). The enzyme requires Mg2+ ion but not Ca2+ in. Cu2+ and Zn2+ ions inhibit the activity. The optimal pH is at pH 7.0. The enzyme hydrolyzes ATP, GTP, UTP, and CTP in this order and the Km value for ATP was determined as 0.2 mM. It does not hydrolyze ADP, adenosyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate, or p-nitrophenyl phosphate. ADP does not inhibit hydrolysis of ATP by the enzyme. The activities of intact vacuoles and of vacuolar membrane vesicles were stimulated 3- and 1.5-fold, respectively, by the protonophore uncoupler 3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxybenzilidenemalononitrile and the K+/H+ antiporter ionophore nigericin. Sodium azide at a concentration exerting an uncoupler effect also stimulated the activity. The activity was sensitive to the ATPase inhibitor N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, but not to sodium vanadate. The ATP-dependent formation of an electrochemical potential difference of protons, measured by the flow-dialysis method, was determined as 180 mV, with contribution of 1.7 pH units, interior acid, and of a membrane potential of 75 mV. It is concluded that the Mg2+-ATPase of vacuoles is a new marker enzyme for these organelles and is a N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-sensitive, H+-translocating ATPase whose catalytic site is exposed to the cytoplasm.

Rat heart sarcolemma was shown to hydrolyze ATP in the presence of Ca2+ or Mg2+; Ka values for Ca2+ and Mg2+ were in the range of 0.58-0.67 and 0.72-0.83 mM, whereas Vmax values were 33-38 and 21-28 mumol Pi/mg per hr, respectively. Both Ca2+ ATPase and Mg2+ ATPase showed low- and high-affinity sites for ATP; the Km value for the low-affinity sites for both enzyme activities was 300-325 microM, whereas Km values for high-affinity sites were 75-85 and 100-108 microM, respectively. The pattern of nucleotide hydrolysis in the presence of Ca2+ was found to be different from that with Mg2+. Although both high concentrations of ADP and Pi inhibited the enzyme activities, Mg2+ ATPase was more sensitive to ADP and less sensitive to Pi in comparison to Ca2+ ATPase. Storage of sarcolemma at about 0 degrees C showed a greater increase in ATP hydrolysis with Ca2+ than with Mg2+. The inhibitory effect of Mg2+ on Ca2+ ATPase, unlike that of Ni2+, Co2+, and Cu2+, was more than that on Mg2+ ATPase. Treatment of membranes with sodium dodecylsulfate or deoxycholate produced a greater reduction in Mg2+ ATPase than in Ca2+ ATPase. These results further support the view that Ca2+ ATPase and Mg2+ ATPase may be two separate enzymes in heart sarcolemma. It is suggested that Ca2+-dependent ATPase may be involved in opening calcium channels for the entry of calcium, whereas Mg2+ ATPase may serve as a Mg2+ pump mechanism for the efflux of magnesium from the cardiac cell.

1. The plasma membrane of the flounder erythrocyte contains a Mg2+-dependent ATPase which is insensitive to ouabain. Mg2+ is part of the substrate, Mg-ATP, and Mg2+ also functions as a nonessential activator. 2. Ca2+, Mn2+ and Co2+ can replace Mg2+ as an activator of ATP hydrolysis. Cu2+ and Zn2+ abolish the Mg-dependent activity. It is shown that Ca2+ and Mg2+ activate the same enzyme and that Mg-ATP and Ca-ATP are mutually competitive. 3. The hydrolysis of ATP obeys Michaelis-Menten kinetics whether or not the Mg2+-ATPase is fully activated by Mg2+. The KM values for Mg-ATP were found to be 0.13 and 0.43 mM respectively. 4. Free ATP acts as a competitive inhibitor towards Mg-ATP and the dissociation constant for the enzyme-ATP complex was determined to be about 0.55 mM. 5. The Mg2+ -ATPase has a low specificity and reacts with the common nucleoside triphosphates GTP, ITP, UTP and CTP. 6. The enzyme has a broad pH optimum ranging from 6.5 to 7.2 and an energy of activation of 13.5 kcal/mol between 0 and 30 degrees C. 7. The effect of some activators and inhibitors of membrane-bound ATPases are reported.

The effect of manganese on brain microsomal Mg2+-Na+K+-ATPase was examined both in vitro and in vivo. Daily intraperitoneal administration of MnCl2 . 4H2O (Mn2+, 6 mg/kg) to the rats for a period of 90 days produced 10% (P less than 0.05) inhibition in the activity of Mg2+-ATPase, and 72 and 63% increases in the contents of manganese and copper, respectively, in the microsomal fraction of brain. In in vitro studies, lower concentrations of Mn2+ activated while higher concentrations inhibited the activity of brain microsomal ATPase. Addition of equal concentrations of Mn2+ + Cu2+ (8 mM) in vitro produced 8% inhibition in the activity of Mg2+-ATPase and 83% inhibition in Na+-K+-ATPase. Free Cu2+ ions were able to antagonize the effect of Mn2+ on ATPase in vitro and inhibited the activity of Mg2+-Na+-K+-ATPase with more pronounced effect of Na+-K+-ATPase. The lack of change in the activity of Na+-K+-ATPase in the brain microsomes of rats administered manganese, in spite of a significant increase in copper, could not be explained. It is, however, evident that a manganese-induced elevation in brain copper was not responsible for initiating biochemical changes in manganese neurotoxicity.

Membrane energization by ATP has been measured in vesicles containing purified bovine heart mitochondrial H+-ATPase (ATP synthase) with the voltage-sensitive dye oxonol VI. The dithiol chelator, Cd2+, and the thiol oxidant, copper o-phenanthroline, produced discharge of the membrane potential when added at the steady state and inhibited its establishment when added prior to energization by ATP. These effects, which were reversed by dithiothreitol, were not accompanied by an increase in the nonspecific H+ permeability of the membrane. Passive H+ conduction in proteoliposomes containing F0 (hydrophobic segment of ATP synthase) was assayed by the quenching of 9-aminoacridine fluorescence after establishing a K+ diffusion potential. This conductance was blocked by Cd2+, an inhibitor of coupling factor B (FB). Labeling of F0 with 115Cd2+ at the concentrations that inhibited the F0 conductance followed by gel electrophoresis yielded a single radioactive band with a molecular weight corresponding to FB, the presence of which in the F0 preparation was confirmed by immunoblot staining. The data offer strong evidence that FB is an essential component of the H+ channel of F0, because H+ conduction through the channel is inhibited by chemical modification of FB.

Effects of chlorpromazine, metals and I-ascorbic acid (AA) on Ca2+-ATPase and Mg2+-ATPase in microsomal and granular fractions obtained from the bovine adrenal medulla were studied. Marker enzyme analysis on microsomal subfractions in a discontinuous sucrose density gradient showed a correlation of distribution between ATPase activities and plasma membrane. The two ATPase activities in such plasma membrane-rich microsomes were reduced by chlorpromazine, Hg2+ and Cu2+ (0.3 mM of each), and their effects were greater on the Mg2+-ATPase activity. Zn2+ (0.3 mM) also reduced only the Mg2+-ATPase activity. AA (3 mM) reduced the two ATPase activities to an equal extent. Nevertheless, the inhibitions of ATPases by Hg2+, Cu2+ and Zn2+ were decreased, unaltered and additively enhanced in combination with AA, respectively. We also observed high Mg2+-ATPase activity in the granule-rich fraction, but this ATPase activity was unaffected by all of the above agents. These results indicate that Mg2+-ATPase in the plasma membrane-rich microsome of adrenal medulla is inhibited by chlorpromazine, Hg2+, Cu2+ and Zn2+ more significantly than Ca2+-ATPase, but Mg2+-ATPase in the granular fraction is unaffected, and that AA changes the potency of inhibition by some metals of ATPases diversely.

The effects of copper on the activity of erythrocyte (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase have been tested on membranes stripped of endogenous calmodulin or recombined with purified calmodulin. The interactions of copper with Ca2+, calmodulin and (Mg-ATP)2- were determined by kinetic studies. The most striking result is the potent competitive inhibition exerted by (Cu-ATP)2- against (Mg-ATP)2- (Ki = 2.8 microM), while free copper gives no characteristic inhibition. Our results also demonstrate that copper does not compete with calcium either on the enzyme or on calmodulin. The fixation of calmodulin on the enzyme is not altered in the presence of copper as shown by the fact that the dissociation constant remains unaffected. It may be speculated that (Cu-ATP)2- is the active form of copper, which could plausibly be at the origin of some of the pathological features of erythrocytes observed in conditions associated with excess copper.

Evidence for the presence of a functionally important vicinal dithiol in mitochondrial coupling factor B (FB) has been presented earlier (Sanadi, D. R. (1982) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 683, 39-56). FB was completely inactivated by 38 micron of copper o-phenanthroline or 0.63 mM iodosobenzoate, and the kinetics were consistent with intramolecular disulfide formation as were polyacrylamide gel patterns which showed that FB which had been treated with copper o-phenanthroline had a different mobility from that of untreated FB. ATP-Pi exchange activity and ATP-induced binding of bis[3-propyl-5-oxoisoxazol-4-yl]pentamethine oxonol (oxonol VI) to H+ -ATPase were also inhibited by the thiol oxidizing reagents, although oligomycin-sensitive ATPase activity was unaffected. F0 isolated from H+ -ATPase rebinds purified F1 with the restoration of ATP-induced oxonol-binding activity. Prior treatment of F0 (but not of F1) with copper o-phenanthroline abolished the oxonol-binding activity of reconstituted F0-F1. 115Cd binds tightly to H+ -ATPase and the bound protein can be recovered by gel electrophoresis in phosphate buffer in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate at a position corresponding to FB. Prior treatment of the H+ -ATPase with copper o-phenanthroline abolished 115Cd binding. The results indicate that the major effect of these inhibitors is on FB dithiol and leave little doubt that Cd2+ is indeed bound to a vicinal dithiol group.

Various physiological important activities of Mycoplasma gallisepticum were inhibited by the copper(I) complex of 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline [Cu(DMP)2NO3]. The energy-yielding metabolism was inhibited because the conversion of pyruvate into lactate was found to be blocked by Cu(DMP)2NO3, indicating a selective inhibition of lactate dehydrogenase. Also, the production rate of acetate and the rate of oxygen uptake by whole cells of M. gallisepticum appeared to be strongly decreased. Experiments with crude cell extracts showed an inhibition of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) oxidase by Cu(DMP)2NO3 and an even stronger inhibition of NADH oxidase and lactate dehydrogenase by CuSO4. No preferential inhibition of adenosine 5'-triphosphatase and pyruvate kinase was found. Investigations on the influence of Cu(DMP)2NO3 on deoxyribonucleic acid, ribonucleic acid, and protein synthesis with growing cells of M. gallisepticum showed a selective inhibition of the incorporation of [14C]thymidine into deoxyribonucleic acid. Cu(DMP)2NO3 induced a decrease in the total amount of accessible sulfhydryl groups of whole cells of M. gallisepticum, indicating that the observed diverse toxicity of Cu(DMP)2NO3 may be associated with the interaction of copper ions with protein sulfhydryl groups.

Fluorescein isothiocyanate-conjugated dextran was introduced preferentially into hepatic lysosomes by intraperitoneal injection into rats. The pH in isolated lysosomes, measured by fluorescein fluorescence, was approximately 5 and gradually increased in KCl (to 7.0) at 25 degrees C. In the presence of Mg2+, ATP caused acidification of lysosomes that was reversed by the protonophore carbonyl cyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone. Mn2+, Co2+, and Fe2+ could replace Mg2+ but Ca2+ could not. Cu2+, Zn2+, and Cd2+ were inhibitory. A membrane-permeant anion, in practice chloride, was required for this acidification. ATP analogues, including 5'-adenylyl imidodiphosphate, could not be substituted for ATP. ATP-driven acidification was sensitive to N-ethylmaleimide and quercetin but insensitive to oligomycin, ouabain, and vanadate. There were some differences between "normal" lysosomes and tritosomes; the acidification was resistant to azide and N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide in normal lysosomes but sensitive to these reagents in tritosomes. These results provide evidence for the presence of an electrogenic proton pump driven by MgATP (H+-ATPase) on lysosomes.
