The mechanism of retraction of the longitudinal flagellum of Ceratium tripos was studied by making extracted models of the flagellum. Non-detergent models extracted in low ionic strength medium containing 1 M-glucose, 10 mM-EDTA, and 50 mM-Tris X HCl buffer (pH 8.0), retracted when Ca2+, Mg2+, Ba2+, Sr2+, Mn2+ or Cd2+ was applied locally with a glass capillary. A demembranated model of the flagellum was made with an extraction medium containing 0.8-1.0 M-glucose, 20 mM-Tris-acetate (pH 7.8), 2 mM-EGTA, 5-7 mM-MgSO4, 0.1 M-potassium glutamate and 0.1% Triton X-100. The model required a concentration of Mg2+ of a few mmol/l for successful reactivation of both retraction and undulation, and about 0.1 M-potassium glutamate (or sodium glutamate) for reactivation of undulation. Neither type of motion of the models could be reactivated above 35 degrees C. Ca2+ induced the retraction at pCa 5.5 or less. In addition to Ca2+, Mn2+, Ba2+, Sr2+ and Cd2+ also induced retraction but Mg2+, La3+ or Tb3+ did not. Although ATP was required for undulation, it was not required for retraction. Co-incubation with hexokinase to remove contaminating ATP did not suppress the retraction. The potent ATPase inhibitor, orthovanadate, inhibited undulation at 10 micron but did not inhibit retraction even at 2 mM. SH blockers, N-ethylmaleimide and dithio-bis-nitrobenzoic acid strongly suppressed undulation but had no effect on retraction. Calmodulin inhibitors, trifluoperazine and chlorpromazine, also had no effect on retraction. These data indicate that undulation is generated by a 9 + 2 microtubular axoneme using energy released by hydrolysis of ATP and that retraction can be induced by Ca2+ without a requirement for ATP.

The Na+ and K+ equilibrium distribution between the medium and glycerinated muscle fibres of the frog has been investigated under equal concentrations of NaCl and KCl in solutions. Concentrations of NaCl and KCl varied from 0.5-1.5 mkM till 50 mM. Ion strength (0.11) was constant owing to the imidazol--HCl buffer. The binding of Na+ and K+ by model fibres occurred in accordance with the Langmur equation. Two kinds of cation-binding sites were found. The one with a low limiting ion sorption (A infinity approximately 1.3 mmol/kg dry weight of fibres) and high affinities (-delta F0 approximately 4.3 kcal/mol) was saturated at 0.5 mM concentrations (Na+ = K+) in the medium, and the other--with A infinity exceeding the previous one by an order and low -delta F0 (2.5 kcal/mol) was discovered at Na+, K+-1-10 mM. At ion concentrations equal to 0.5-1 mM the Langmur-binding is disturbed. At Na+-K+ less than or equal to 1 mM Na+ bound:K+ bound approximately to 1:1. At higher concentrations of cations Na+ bound:K+ bound approximately equal to 3:2. It is concluded that at least part of the sites in model fibres is capable of interacting only with Na+, but not with K+. It is supposed that at equal concentrations of Na+ and K+ in the medium the cations are bound by Na+, K+-ATPase of glycerinated muscle fibres.

The in vitro deproteinized vastus lateralis muscle buffer capacity, carnosine, and histidine levels were examined in 20 men from 4 distinct populations (5 sprinters, 800-m runners; 5 rowers; 5 marathoners; 5 untrained). Needle biopsies were obtained at rest from the vastus lateralis muscle. The buffer capacity was determined in deproteinized homogenates by repeatedly titrating supernatant extracts over the pH range of 7.0-6.0 with 0.01 N HCl. Carnosine and histidine levels were determined on an amino acid AutoAnalyzer. Fast-twitch fiber percentage was determined by staining intensity of myosin adenosinetriphosphatase. High-intensity running performance was assessed on an inclined treadmill run to fatigue (20% incline; 3.5 m X s-1). Significantly (P less than 0.01) elevated buffer capacities, carnosine levels, and high-intensity running performances were demonstrated by the sprinters and rowers, but no significant differences existed between these variables for the marathoners vs. untrained subjects. Low but significant (P less than 0.05) interrelationships were demonstrated between buffer capacity, carnosine levels, and fast-twitch fiber composition. These findings indicate that the sprinters and rowers possess elevated buffering capabilities and carnosine levels compared with marathon runners and untrained subjects.

1. We have isolated a mutant of Escherichia coli K12 (strain AN295) that forms de-repressed amounts of Mg(2+),Ca(2+)-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase. 2. The Mg(2+),Ca(2+)-stimulated triphosphatase activity was separated from membrane preparations from strain AN295 by extraction with 5mm-Tris-HCl buffer containing EDTA and dithiothreitol, resulting in a loss of the ATP-dependent transhydrogenase activity. The non-energy-linked transhydrogenase activity remained in the membrane residue. 3. The solubilized Mg(2+),Ca(2+)-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase activity from strain AN295 was partially purified by repeated gel filtration. The addition of the purified Mg(2+),Ca(2+)-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase to the membrane residue from strain AN295 reactivated the ATP-dependent transhydrogenase activity. 4. Strain AN296, lacking Mg(2+),Ca(2+)-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase activity, was derived by transducing the mutant allele, uncA401, into strain AN295. The ATP-dependent transhydrogenase activity was lost but the non-energy linked transhydrogenase was retained. 5. The ATP-dependent transhydrogenase activity in membrane preparations from strain AN296 (uncA(-)) could not be re-activated by the purified Mg(2+),Ca(2+)-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase from strain AN295. However, after extraction by 5mm-Tris-HCl buffer containing EDTA and dithiothreitol, the ATP-dependent transhydrogenase activity could be re-activated by the addition of the purified Mg(2+),Ca(2+)-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase from strain AN295 to the membrane residue from strain AN296 (uncA(-)).

Timoprazole, a substituted benzimidazole, is an antisecretory agent that inhibits gastric acid secretion by interference with (H+-K+)-ATPase. In the studies reported herein, timoprazole given orally was found to be cytoprotective for the stomach when given 30 min prior to a challenge to boiling water, ethanol, or 0.6 N HCl. Timoprazole also prevented necrosis of the mucosa and acute ulcerations induced by alcohol in the rat fundus, as evaluated by histopathology. The ED50 for cytoprotection was between 1 and 3 mg/kg of timoprazole depending on the challenge, whereas the antisecretory ED50 was approximately 12 mg/kg. Timoprazole was an active antisecretory agent when given subcutaneously (ED50 10 mg/kg), but was not cytoprotective when given by this route. Indomethacin pretreatment (5 mg/kg orally) blocked the cytoprotective activity of oral timoprazole at doses of 1 or 3 mg/kg given 30 min later. However, at higher doses of timoprazole (5 mg/kg), indomethacin did not inhibit the cytoprotective activity. The ability of high doses of timoprazole to overcome the indomethacin blocks is different than the cytoprotective activity of mild irritants, which is always blocked by indomethacin. However, when tested in vitro, timoprazole exhibited only mild inhibitory activity on both prostaglandin cyclooxygenase and 15-hydroxyl-dehydrogenase and only at high doses, suggestive of nonspecific activity.

Gastric K+-NPPase represents a partial reaction of the (K+-H+)ATPase system, which is considered to be the proton pump in mammalian parietal cells. In the present paper, K+-NPPase activity was cytochemically studied by the method of Mayahara et al. (1980) in gastric glands of birds, amphibia, and mammals, either in the resting state induced by cimetidine or after stimulation of HCl secretion by histamine. The gastric K+-NPPase cytochemical reaction was localized only in oxyntic cells of the gastric mucosa in the three species tested. The subcellular distribution of the K+-NPPase reaction product drastically changes with the secretory state of HCl. In resting cells, the K+-NPPase staining is associated with the membranes of the endocellular tubular system while in HCl-secreting cells, it is associated with the plasma membrane of the elaborate secretory surface characteristic of this functional state. The above results demonstrate that the same enzymatic activity, which is associated with the gastric proton pump, is present in both membranous systems of the oxyntic cell secretory pole. This fact supports the proposal that the tubular system represents a membrane reserve that inserts the proton pump into the luminal plasma membrane in vertebrate oxyntic cells under the action of HCl secretagogues.

The possible role of Mg2+-HCO3-ATPase, carbonic anhydrase and several other enzymes in rat intestinal mucosa as mediators of the action of aldosterone has been examined. The small-intestinal tract was cut into seven segments, 15 cm each in length and the mucosa was scraped off, homogenized in 50 mM D-mannitol-2 mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.1), differentially fractionated and a crude brush border was obtained. The mucosa from the colon and rectum was combined and used as the large-intestinal sample. Five days after the adrenalectomy, activities of brush border Mg2+-HCO3-ATPase and supernatant carbonic anhydrase from the upper small intestine decreased to about 60 and 40% of normal values, respectively. Activities of Na+-K+-ATPase, beta-glycerophosphatase and succinate dehydrogenase were all decreased. Two and 4 h after i.p. injection of aldosterone (40 micrograms/kg) to adrenalectomized rats, all enzyme activities increased except for Na+-K+-ATPase in the upper small intestine. In contrast, Mg2+-HCO-3-ATPase and carbonic anhydrase activities were unchanged 3 h after i.p. injection of dexamethasone (200 micrograms and 1 mg/kg). The activation of both Mg2+-HCO3-ATPase and carbonic anhydrase by a single injection of aldosterone was blocked by pretreatment with cycloheximide (1 mg/kg). These results suggest that aldosterone may induce the synthesis of enzyme proteins in the intestinal mucosa.

Specific antibodies against lysosomal membranes were prepared by using techniques previously described (Louvard, D., H. Reggio, and G. Warren, 1982, J. Cell Biol., 92:92-107) for obtaining organelle-specific antibodies. The purified antibodies stained an acidic vacuolar compartment as shown by double-labeling experiments with acridine orange and indirect immunofluorescence. Characterization of the antibodies by immunoreplica methods revealed one major protein of approximately 100,000 mol wt. The antibodies cross-reacted with purified H+,K+ ATPase from pig gastric mucosa, the enzyme responsible for HCl secretion, but not with ATPases transporting other ions. They may therefore recognize a component of the proton pump involved in the acidification of lysosomes. As was expected, secondary lysosomes contained immunoreactive antigen, as determined by the fine-structural localization of reaction product for peroxidase or immunogold probes in several cell types. The antigen was also found in vacuoles containing phagocytosed bacteria in macrophages so it is present in at least some of the compartments of an endocytic pathway. In liver, the antigen was present in small amounts on the plasma membrane and in large amounts in some coated vesicles (near the sinusoidal surface of hepatocytes), putative endosomes, two cisternae on the cis side of the Golgi complex, adjacent vesicles and vacuoles, and pericanalicular dense bodies. In summary, the antigen seems to be present in those compartments that have recently been demonstrated to be acidified by an ATP-driven pump.

21S Dynein ATPase [EC 3.6.1.3] from axonemes of a Japanese sea urchin, Pseudocentrotus depressus, and its subunit fractions were studied to determine their kinetic properties in the steady state, using [gamma-32P]ATP at various concentrations, 5 mM divalent cations, and 20 mM imidazole at pH 7.0 and 0 degrees C. The following results were obtained. 1. 21S Dynein had a latent ATPase activity of about 0.63 mumol Pi/(mg . min) in 1 mM ATP, 100 mM KCl, 4 mM MgSO4, 0.5 mM EDTA, and 30 mM Tris-HCl at pH 8.0 and 25 degrees C. Its exposure to 0.1% Triton X-100 for 5 min at 25 degrees C induced an increase in the ATPase activity to about 3.75 mumol Pi/(mg . min) and treatment at 40 degrees C for 5 min also induced a similar activation. 2. The double-reciprocal plot for the ATPase activity of dynein activated by the treatment at 40 degrees C consisted of two straight lines, while that of nonactivated 21S dynein fitted a single straight line. 3. In low ionic strength solution, the Mg- and Mn-ATPase of 21S dynein showed substrate inhibition at ATP concentrations above 0.1 mM; the inhibition decreased with increasing ionic strength. Ca- and Sr-ATPase showed no substrate inhibition. 4. Both the Vmax and Km values of dynein ATPase decreased reversibly upon addition of about 40% (v/v) glycerol. In the presence of glycerol, the dynein ATPase showed an initial burst of Pi liberation. The apparent Pi-burst size was 1.0 mol/(10(6) g protein) and the true size was calculated to be 1.6 mol/1,250 K after correcting for the effect of Pi liberation in the steady state and the purity of our preparation. 5. One of the subunit fractions of 21S dynein which was obtained by the method of Tang et al. showed substrate inhibition and an initial burst of Pi liberation of 1.4 mol/(10(6) g protein) in the presence of 54% (v/v) glycerol.

The apical surface of the gastric parietal cell is greatly expanded (5-10-fold) during maximal HCl secretion, as compared to the resting cell. The membrane recycling hypothesis has been proposed to account for the extensive, functionally related, rearrangement of cell membranes. Cytoplasmic membranes within the resting cell, the tubulovesicles, contain the H+/K+-ATPase. Fusion of tubulovesicles with the apical plasma membrane occurs when the cells are stimulated, thus providing the increased surface area and proper disposition of the H+ pump enzyme. Microfilaments, composed of actin and other regulatory proteins, serve to direct the reordering of the apical surface during stages of the secretory cycle. Cell fractionation of resting oxyntic mucosa reveals that virtually all of the H+/K+-ATPase activity is associated with light microsomal membrane vesicles, presumably derived from tubulovesicles. Although the enzyme from resting tissue is fully competent (e.g. ATP-driving pump, H+-K+ exchange), the microsomal vesicles lack an endogenous pathway to provide rapid access for K+ to its intravesicular activity site. In stimulated stomach, there is a redistribution of H+/K+-ATPase to a larger, denser membrane fraction, the so-called stimulation-associated vesicles. Morphological features and chemical content (e.g. microfilament proteins) suggest that the stimulation-associated vesicles are derived from the expanded apical surface of the stimulated oxyntic cell. A KCl cotransport system has been identified in the stimulation-associated membranes, which operates in parallel with the ATP-driven H+-K+ exchange pump. These two transport systems operate in concert within the apical membrane to provide the machinery for net HCl transport by the parietal cell.
