The localization of leukotriene D4-metabolizing enzyme on the cell surface was examined using human neutrophils. Intact neutrophils rapidly converted leukotriene D4 to leukotriene E4. However, when neutrophils were modified chemically by diazotized sulfanilic acid, a poorly permeant reagent which inactivates cell surface enzymes selectively, the leukotriene D4-metabolizing activity of neutrophils decreased significantly without any inhibition of the cell viability or marker enzymes of cytosol, granules, microsome and mitochondria. The leukotriene D4-metabolizing enzyme activity of the membrane fraction was inhibited by modification to the same extent as that of Mg2+-dependent ATPase, a cell-surface marker enzyme. Among various enzyme inhibitors examined, a metal chelator, o-phenanthroline, strongly suppressed the leukotriene D4-metabolizing activity of intact neutrophils and the o-phenanthroline-inactivated enzyme activity was fully reactivated by Co2+, Mn2+ and Zn2+. These results would suggest that some metalloenzyme located on the cell surface is involved in the conversion of leukotriene D4 to leukotriene E4 by neutrophils.

A protein tyrosine kinase that phosphorylates both alpha and beta subunits of inactivated (Na+,K+)-ATPase from dog kidney was purified about 500-fold from Ehrlich ascites tumor cell membranes. The enzyme required divalent cations Mn2+, Mg2+, or Fe2+ but was inhibited by Cu2+ or Zn2+. The purified enzyme phosphorylated the beta subunit about five times faster than the alpha subunit of the (Na+,K+)-ATPase. The random polymer poly(Glu80Tyr20) was an excellent substrate while casein was only marginally phosphorylated. In contrast, the purified transforming gene product of Rous sarcoma virus phosphorylated all three substrates and the (Na+,K+)-ATPase was preferentially phosphorylated on the alpha subunit. The transforming gene product of Fujinami sarcoma visue and EGF receptor kinase from A431 cells phosphorylated (Na+,K+)-ATPase poorly whereas casein was an excellent substrate. The molecular weight of the partially purified protein tyrosine kinase from Ehrlich ascites tumor cells determined by gel filtration was about 60,000. One of two major phosphorylated phosphopeptides resolved by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis had an Mr of 60 kDa, thus suggesting that it might be the autophosphorylated protein tyrosine kinase. A phosphatase that hydrolyzes phosphorylated histones or poly(Glu80Tyr20) was partially purified from the same membrane.

Zinc, copper and lead are known as inhibitory trace metals against brain (Na+-K+)-ATPase. Alcohol (4 g/kg intraperitoneally for 10 days, to rats) induced an elevated level of lead in the cerebral cortex and cerebellum, whereas that of zinc was elevated only in latter region. Copper levels were found to be decreased in the hippocampus, amygdala and hypothalamus, but increased in the spinal cord. Zinc and lead contents were decreased in the amygdala and hypothalamus. The activity of (Na+-K+)-ATPase was enhanced in the hippocampus, amygdala and hypothalamus, but inhibited in the cerebral cortex and cerebellum. It is suggested that alcohol acts differentially on brain zinc, copper and lead concentrations and (Na+-K+)-ATPase activity.

The formation of a complex between Zn(II) and beta-D-fructose 2,6-bisphosphate was shown because the latter compound: activated bis(5'-guanosyl)tetraphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.17) and dinucleoside triphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.29) only to the extent that they could be inhibited by Zn(II); increased the consumption of Zn(II) necessary to titrate to an end point a solution of the metallochromic indicator eriochrome black T; coeluted with Zn(II) in a gel filtration column capable of resolving them if unbound. Neither of those effects was shown by D-fructose 1,6-bisphosphate under the same conditions.

Ferrous iron uptake studies in Bifidobacterium bifidum var. pennsylvanicus were carried out in a well-defined salt solution termed "modified Hanks solution" at both high iron concentrations (LAFIUS conditions) and low concentrations (HAFIUS conditions). Various divalent metals, Mn2+, Zn2+, Ni2+ and Cu2+, inhibited iron uptake under HAFIUS conditions in a non-competitive manner, and in a pseudo-competitive manner under LAFIUS conditions. Cr2+ had no effect. Co2+ inhibited iron uptake competitively under HAFIUS conditions. Metabolic affectors that inhibited iron uptake both under HAFIUS and LAFIUS conditions were: tetraphenylphosphonium chloride, diethylstilbesterol, vanadate, carbonylcyanide-m-chlorophenyl-hydrazone, and a mixture of valinomycin and nigericin. Substances that stimulated iron uptake were KCl, valinomycin, and nigericin. Iron uptake under LAFIUS conditions in piperazine-buffered modified Hanks solution was higher than that in the acetate-buffered solution, and acetate inhibited iron uptake in the piperazine buffer. HAFIUS showed no difference. It is concluded that iron uptake in bifidobacteria is driven by an ATPase-dependent proton-motive force and that both the pH gradient and membrane potential are involved in this process. Mn2+, Zn2+, Ni2+, and Cu2+ may be transported via LAFIUS, but not HAFIUS. HAFIUS may transport only Co2+ in addition to Fe2+.

We have characterized protein phosphorylation in vitro in subcellular fractions from Drosophila melanogaster heads. Optimal conditions for the incorporation of 32P into proteins, and its dependence on ATP, divalent cations, and cyclic nucleotides have been determined, as well as the effect of inhibitors of ATPase, protein phosphatase, and protein kinase on protein phosphorylation. Among these inhibitors, Zn2+ was found to affect the incorporation of 32P into specific bands and p-hydroxymercuribenzoate was found to be most suited for freezing the activity of both kinases and phosphatases. Cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (cAMP-dPK) activity was present in both supernatant (S2) and particulate (P2) fractions, with the majority (60-85%, depending on the homogenization medium) being associated with S2, as determined by phosphorylation of exogenous synapsin I. cAMP-dPK catalyzed the phosphorylation of at least 18 endogenous polypeptides in S2 and at least 10 endogenous polypeptides in P2. These proteins could be classified on the basis of the extent of stimulation of phosphorylation by cyclic nucleotides, dependence on cyclic nucleotide concentration, and rate of phosphorylation. A phosphoprotein of 51 kilodaltons (pp51) was a major component of the S2 and P2 fractions and displayed properties expected from the regulatory subunit of the cAMP-dPK, R-II. A phosphoprotein doublet of approximately 37 kilodaltons (pp37) was stimulated to the largest extent by cAMP in the P2 and S2 fractions. The phosphorylation of several proteins in both fractions was significantly lowered by the mammalian Walsh inhibitor of cAMP-dPK, whereas in some cases the stimulation of phosphorylation of the same proteins by exogeneous cAMP was relatively small. Phosphoproteins from two learning mutants known to be deficient in cAMP metabolism, dnc and rut, were analyzed for their extent of phosphorylation in the presence of a stable cAMP analogue; no significant differences from normal were detected, suggesting that the genetic defect in cAMP metabolism is not accompanied by constituent abnormalities in phosphorylated substrates in the adult fly, and that the physiological defects in these mutants result from aberrations in the interaction of the cAMP cascade with normal substrates. The majority of Ca2+/calmodulin kinase activity (80-90%, depending on the homogenization procedure) was associated with S2, as revealed by phosphorylation of exogenous synapsin I. Two endogenous substrates for this kinase in P2 had molecular masses of approximately 45 and 87 kilodaltons. At least 11 substrates for the Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent kinase were detected in S2.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Zinc, lead and cadmium in the form of chloride salts when added to a standard assay system containing 80 X 10(-6) ejaculated washed human spermatozoa caused a dose and duration-dependent inhibition of their motility. The activity of certain key enzymes of carbohydrate and energy metabolism, viz, glycogen phosphorylase, glucose-6-phosphatase, fructose-1, 6-diphosphatase, glucose-6-phosphate isomerase, amylase, Mg2+- dependent ATPase and lactic and succinic acid dehydrogenases were also found to be inhibited. The order of inhibitory effects of the heavy metals were zinc less than lead less than cadmium. The metal chelating agent, ethylene diamine tetra-acetic acid (EDTA, disodium salt) also interfered with the spermatozoal motility and inhibited the enzyme activities.

Properties of the anion ATPase from rat red blood cell membranes were investigated. Diethyl ether treated membranes exhibited the increased activity of the anion ATPase. Na+, K+- and Ca2+-ATPase activities were not found in these preparations. The pH optimum of the anion ATPase was at pH 8.5. The enzyme was stimulated by methanol and inhibited by glycerol. Among the inorganic anions stimulators, inhibitors and indifferent substances were observed. Anions of thiocyanate, sulfite and bicarbonate altered noncompetitively the ATPase activity. Sulfite stimulated and thiocyanate inhibited the ATP hydrolysis in presence of magnesium, calcium, zinc, cobalt, manganese and nickel. Reactions with ATP, ITP, GTP but not with ADP and AMP used as substrates were sensitive to sulfite and thiocyanate. EGTA did not change the stimulation and inhibition effects of the anions on the ATPase activity. The similarity of properties of erythrocyte and mitochondrial ATPases is discussed.

Microvilli isolated from intestinal epithelial cells contain a cytoskeletal Mr 110,000 polypeptide complexed with calmodulin (110K-CM) that is believed to link the microfilament core bundle laterally to the plasma membrane. Previous work has shown that physiological levels of ATP can partially solubilize the 110K-CM complex from isolated microvillus cytoskeletons or isolated microvilli. However, once extracted, the 110K-CM complex has been found to be difficult to maintain stably soluble in aqueous buffers. This is due to the presence of an endogenous ATPase (approximately 100 nmol Pi/min per mg at 37 degrees C) in microvillus cytoskeletal preparations that depletes the ATP with subsequent precipitation of 110K-CM. Addition of ATP to such precipitates resolubilizes 110K-CM. Inclusion of an ATP regenerating system in the solubilization of 110K-CM from cytoskeletons, or membrane-bound brush borders, increases the amount of 110K-CM solubilized. Solubilization of 110K-CM from microvillus cytoskeletons was found to require a divalent cation (Mg2+, Mn2+, or Co2+, but not Zn2+) and a nucleoside triphosphate (ATP, GTP, CTP, or ITP). ADP did not solubilize 110K-CM, but could partially inhibit ATP-dependent solubilization. Solubilized 110K was phosphorylated during extraction of microvillus cores with [gamma-32P]ATP, but this was unrelated to the solubilization of 110K-CM as the endogenous kinase was specific for ATP, whereas the solubilization was not. The 110K-CM was purified using ATP extraction of brush border cytoskeletons in the presence of an ATP regenerating system, gel filtration of the solubilized extract, an ATP depletion step to specifically precipitate 110K-CM with F-actin, and resolubilization followed by phosphocellulose chromatography. The purified complex was stably soluble in aqueous buffers both in the presence and absence of ATP. It bound almost quantitatively to F-actin in the absence of ATP, and showed nucleotide solubilization characteristics from F-actin similar to that found for solubilization of 110K-CM from microvillus cores. At low ATP levels, the binding to F-actin was increased in the presence of ADP. These results suggest that the purified complex has been isolated in a native form. The data confirm and extend the studies of Howe and Mooseker (1983, J. Cell Biol., 97:974-985) using a partially purified preparation of 110K-CM and further emphasize that 110K-CM is a stably water soluble complex and not an integral membrane protein.

The kinetics of ATP hydrolysis and cation effects on ATPase activity in plasma membrane from Candida albicans ATCC 10261 yeast cells were investigated. The ATPase showed classical Michaelis-Menten kinetics for the hydrolysis of Mg X ATP, with Km = 4.8 mM Mg X ATP. Na+ and K+ stimulated the ATPase slightly (9% at 20 mM). Divalent cations in combination with ATP gave lower ATPase activity than Mg X ATP (Mg greater than Mn greater than Co greater than Zn greater than Ni greater than Ca). Divalent cations inhibited the Mg X ATPase (Zn greater than Ni greater than Co greater than Ca greater than Mn). Free Mg2+ inhibited Mg X ATPase weakly (20% inhibition at 10 mM). Computed analyses of substrate concentrations showed that free Zn2+ inhibited Zn X ATPase, mixed (Zn2+ + Mg2+) X ATPase, and Mg X ATPase activities. Zn X ATP showed high affinity for ATPase (Km = 1.0 mM Zn X ATP) but lower turnover (52%) relative to Mg X ATP. Inhibition of Mg X ATPase by (free) Zn2+ was noncompetitive, Ki = 90 microM Zn2+. The existence of a divalent cation inhibitory site on the plasma membrane Mg X ATPase is proposed.
