In energy transducing systems the direction of energy transfer is proposed to be maintained by the synchronized turnovers of the conformational change of one protein coupling up to affect another. Catalysis by those systems implies, therefore, that under new space restrictions the groups of the transducing enzyme increase and decrease reactivity between themselves, with activatory and/or inhibitory ligands (H+,
H2O
, metals, etc.) and with the electron shells of the reactant molecules. The exergonic reaction-dependent turnover of the forms of the enzyme within the transition complexes would be maintained, therefore, under asymmetric phase angles of conformational-dependent reactivity that would effectively restrict the microscopic reversibility of transducing systems. Some well known reactions, such as hemoglobins Bohr effect, can be used to illustrate that microscopic (molecular) interactions subject to thermodynamic equilibria laws may similarly paricipate as driving forces in energy transducing sytems. This would allow the thermodynamic description of the role of proton translocation as that of a modificatory force of the structural parameters of proteins. Similarly, the relationship between the liganded states of hemoglobin and its change in conformation has been used to develop an illustrative model relating changes in oxido-reduction of electron carriers to induced-fit effects leading to a sequence of
ATPase
forms in transition complexes which become stabilized as high energy intermediates under the constraints imposed by the membrane of energy transducing organelles.

1. The terminal phosphate of (gamma-32P)ATP is rapidly incorporated into cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes (0.7--1.3 mumol/g protein) in the presence of calcium and magnesium. Cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes catalize an ATP-ADP phosphate exchange in the presence of calcium and magnesium. 2. Half-maximum activation of the phosphoprotein formation and ATP-ADP phosphate exchange is reached at an ionized calcium concentration of about 0.3 muM. The Hill coefficients are 1.3. 3. Transphosphorylation and ATP-ADP phosphate exchange require magnesium and are maximally activated at magnesium concentrations close to or equal to the ATP concentration. 4. The phosphoprotein level is reduced to about 45% at an ADP/ATP ratio of 0.1. The rate of calcium-dependent ATP splitting declines, whilst the rate of the calcium-dependent ATP-ADP phosphate exchange increases when the ADP/ATP ratio is varied from 0.1 to 1. The sum of both, the rate of ATP splitting and the rate of ADP-ATP phosphate exchange remains constant. 5. Phosphoprotein formation and ATP-ADP phosphate exchange are not affected by azide, dinitrophenol, dicyclohexyl carbodiimide and oubain, whilst both activities are reduced by blockade of -SH groups localized on the outside of the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane. 6. The isolated phosphoprotein is acid stable. The trichloroacetic acid denatured 32P-labelled membrane complex is dephosphorylated by hydroxylamine, which might indicate that the phosphorylated protein is an acyl-phosphate. 7. Polyacrylamide gel elctrophoresis (performed with phenol/acetic acid/
water
) of phosphorylated sarcoplasmic reticulum fractions demonstrates that the 32P-incorporation occurs into a protein of about 100000 molecular weight. 8. It is suggested that the phosphoprotein represents a phosphorylated intermediate of the calcium-dependent
ATPase
which formation occurs as an early step in the reaction sequence of calcium translocation by cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum similar as in skeletal muscle.

The teleostean gill is characterized by an exceptionally low permeability to
water
.
Water
moves along the osmotic gradient across the gill, being gained in fresh
water
and lost in sea
water
. Coupling of
water
movement to solute movement has not been reported. In fresh
water
, the gill is the site of independent active uptake of sodium and chloride. Na+ uptake is coupled to H+ or NH4+ excretion, Cl- uptake to HCO3- excretion. Amiloride blocks sodium transport and thiocyanate inhibits the chloride pump. In sea
water
, sodium and chloride exchanges across the gill are about 100 times faster than in fresh
water
, up to 100% of the internal sodium or chloride being exchanged per hour. Chloride is actively excreted, while sodium movement may well be passive. The chloride pump is associated with a mechanism for Na/K exchange; both pump and Na/K exchange are blocked by thiocyanate and possibly by ouabain. Three enzymes are involved in the ionic pumps: carbonate dehydratase (EC 4.2.1.1; carbonic anhydrase), sodium/potassium-stimulated adenosine-
triphosphatase
(
EC 3.6.1.3
,
ATPase
) and anion-stimulated
ATPase
. Specialized cells ('chloride cells') are presumably the site of the active transport.

2' (or 3')-O-(2,4,6-Trinitrophenyl) adenosine 5'-triphosphate (N3ph-ATP), which contains a Meisenheimer complex moiety, is one of the class of compounds which do not fluoresce in
water
but fluoresce both in low polarity solvents and when bound to the protein molecule. Fluorescence intensity of N3ph-ATP in the range of 540 nm, when excited at 410 nm, decreased with increasing the solvent polarity accompanying the increment of the wavelength of maximum emission. When bound to heavy meromyosin
ATPase
, the fluorescence properties of N3ph-ADP were almost the same as those of N3ph-ATP in a low polarity solvent, suggesting that N3ph-ADP was bound to hydrophobic area on heavy meromyosin
ATPase
.

Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-resistant mutants of Escherichia coli were isolated and characterized In one mutant the unc genes and affects the membrane-integrated part of the ATP synthetase. The sensitivity of ATP synthetase functions to N,N' -dicyclohexylcarbodiimide was compared in wild-type and mutant membranes. The membrane-integrated part of the wild-type ATP synthetase is highly sensitive to ATP-dependent membrane energization and restoration of lactate-dependent energization of
ATPase
-depleted membranes. In mutant membranes this concentration has only a slight effect on these activities whereas a severe inhibition is obtained at 200 muM. Using the highly
water
-soluble 1-ethyl-3(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-carbodiimide theactivities of wild-type and mutant membranes are inhibited to the same extent. TheATP synthetase of wild-type and mutant was partially purified and incorporated muM. Uinto liposomes. These showed an uncoupler-sensitive ATP-32Pi exchange and ATP-dependent quenching of acridine-dye fluorescence. The activities of mutant and wild-type proteoliposomes exhibit the same pattern of sensitivity to dicyclohexylcarbodiimide as the corresponding membranes.

Reversible gamma-PO3 transfer in ATP reactions can be recognized by exchange of 18O from the beta,gamma-bridge position to the beta-P-nonbridge positions: (see article). Such intramolecular exchange is less demanding for the detection of the bond cleavage than the usual ATP:ADP isotope exchange because it does not require dissociation of bound ADP from the intermediate complex. Acyl phosphate intermediates are indicated for the glutamine synthetase and carbamyl-P synthetase reactions by their extreme requirements for glutamate and bicarbonate, respectively, for positional oxygen exchange. No support is given for E-P or concerted mechanisms. No support is found for an active CO2 in the latter reaction, although this is not ruled out by the data. Positional isomerization in ATP occurs with lamellae from spinach chloroplast only in the light. When the ATP molecule interacts, it also undergoes complete exchange of the gamma-PO3 oxygen with
water
before it rejoins the pool of free ATP. The difference in rates of the two exchanges suggests that the torsional motion of ADP-beta-PO3 is greatly hindered on the enzyme. This may explain, by the argument of substrate activation, the rapid reversibility of the
ATPase
reaction on the enzyme.

The rate of enzymic reaction of ATP, ITP, GTP with myosin is studied in the presence of potassiu, ammonium and calcium ions in
H2O
--D2O solutions. There is no kinetic isotope effect of ITPase and GTPase reaction in the neutral pH region (VHVD = 1). The value VH/VD for the
ATPase
reaction in the pH range from 6.5 to 8.5 with all cations studied varies from 1.05 to 1.26. Such changes of myosin enzymic activity in D2O infer that small changes in the interaction of subunits is not the decisive one in the regulation of myosin ATPase. The equality of isotope effects in potassium salts and ammonium solution suggests that a specific effect of ammonium ion as a proton donor affects the
ATPase
reaction of myosin. The relationship between the value of isotope effect and D2O concentration in solution in non-linear. The shape of concentration curve suggests essential conformational changes of myosin during ATP hydrolysis.

NAD+ reduction catalyzed by transhydrogenase (EC 1.6.1.1) from E. coli membrane particles at the expense of NADPH oxidation is coupled with phenyldicarbaundecaborate (PCB-) absorption by the particles. This process is inhibited by oxidative phosphorylation protonophorous uncouplers and by equilibration of concentrations of the substrates and products of the transhydrogenase reaction. Elimination of the
water
-soluble part of membrane
ATPase
results in the inhibition of PCB- absorption at the expense of the transhydrogenase reaction energy. Treatment of the particles by dicyclohexyl carbodiimide increases the transhydrogenase-coupled absorption of PCB-. The transhydrogenase-induced increase of pPCB in the suspension of particles is directly correlated with the ratio of ([NADPH].[NAD+])/([NADP+].[NADH]). When this value is equal to 1, no energy-dependent increase of pPCB was observed. NADP+ reduction at the expense of NADH oxidation leads to a decrease in the amount of PCB- absorbed by the particles at the expense of ATP hydrolysis energy. The experimental data suggest that NADPH oxidation in the course of the transhydrogenase reaction is coupled with the formation of a membrane potential with a positive charge localized inside the particles.

The surface activity and enzymic properties of the factor F1, the catalytic moiety of Streptococcus faecalis H+-
ATPase
, has been studied at the air-
water
and phospholipid-
water
interfaces. F1 does not interact with the monolayer phospholipids, hence its adsorption on a biological membrane must be due mainly to its recognition of proteins of the hydrophobic complex. The dimensions of the F1 molecule at the air-
water
interface have been estimated. In the presence of Mg2+, base area is S = 1.8 . 10(4) A2, height h = 27 A. Bearing in mind the size of a globular subunit, it follows from the measurements that the major F1 subunits should all lie in the same plane. The
ATPase
activity of F1 at the interface is inversely proportional to the monolayer density. With low density monolayer, the specific
ATPase
activity is higher at the interface than in the bulk of the solution. Adsorption of F1 at the interface shifts the isoelectric point of tiscussed relative to the proton-active transport mechanism.

Chick embryo cells transformed by the Bryan "high titer" strain of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV-BH) are heavily vacuolated. A variety of microscopic techniques have been used demonstrating that the vacuoles are cytoplasmic, bounded by membrane, and are composed largely of
water
. Proteins, lipids, glycoproteins, glycolipids, glycosaminoglycans, glycogen, and nucleic acids were undetectable in the vacuoles. Physiological requirements for development of the vacuoles, and reversal of vacuolization, were examined in cells infected with a virus mutant, RSV-BH-Ta, which induces reversible temperature-dependent transformation. Na+ was the only component of the cell culture medium found essential for both the development and reversal of vacuoles. Glucose depletion or dinitrophenol treatment inhibited vacuolization, suggesting a possible energy requirement in the vacuolization process. Ouabain, an inhibitor of Na+-K+
ATPase
, enhanced vacuolization, but a variety of other substances affecting cell surface components were in active. Two sugars, glucosamine and mannosamine, prevented the disappearance of vacuoles. The observations suggest that cellular vacuolization may be a normal physiological response to an increase in
water
and Na+, and, in the specific case of transformation by RSV-BH, may be relevant to the physiological basis for malignancy.
