The substrate specificity and the effects of nucleotides and SH-blocking agents on the p-nitrophenylphosphatase activity of intact Ehrlich ascites tumor cells (EAT) cells were studied. DL-beta-Glycerophosphate, o-phosphoethanolamine, cholinephosphate, glucose-6-phosphate, o-carboxyphenylphosphate,, phosphoenolpyruvate and AMP were not attacked by intact cells. ATP is greater than GTP is greater than UPT is greater than PPi is greater than pNPP were cleaved with decreasing velocity. A stimulation of the cleavage of p-NPP by the following nucleotides was observed with decreasing effectivity: ATP is greater than ADP is greater than GTP is greater than UTP; AMP was ineffective. The phosphatase activity was not affected by malate, tartrate and glutathion disulfide. The SH blocking agents diamide and thimerosal were more effective inhibitors of the pNPPase than of the ATPase activity, whereas the hydrolysis of ATP is more affected by the ATP analog adenylylimidodiphosphate. The present data are best compatible with a double headed enzyme: Both active sites interact with ATP, only one is active against p-NPP and sensitive against SH-blocking agents.

We have prepared human blood lymphocyte membrane vesicles of high purity in sufficient quantity for detailed enzyme analysis. This was made possible by the use of plateletpheresis residues, which contain human lymphocytes in amounts equivalent to thousands of milliliters of blood. The substrate specificity and the kinetics of the cofactor and substrate requirements of the human lymphocyte membrane Na+, K+-ATPase activity were characterized. The Na+, K+-ATPase did not hydrolyze ADP, AMP, ITP, UTP, GTP or TTP. The mean ATPase stimulated by optimal concentrations of Na+ and K+ (Na+, K+-ATPase) was 1.5 nmol of P(i) hydrolyzed, microgram protein-1, 30 min-1 (range 0.9-2.1). This activity was completely inhibited by the cardiac glycoside, ouabain. The K(m) for K+ was approximately 1.0 mM and the K(m) for Na+ was approximately 15 mM. Active Na+ and K+ transport and ouabain-sensitive ATP production increase when lymphocytes are stimulated by PHA. Na+, K+-ATPase activity must increase also to transduce energy for the transport of Na+ and K+. Some studies have reported that PHA stimulates the lymphocyte membrane ATPase directly. We did not observe stimulation of the membrane Na+, K+-ATPase when either lymphocytes or lymphocyte membranes were treated with mitogenic concentrations of PHA. Moreover, PHA did not enhance the reaction velocity of the Na+, K+-ATPase when studied at the K(m) for ATP, Na+, K+ OR Mg++, indicating that it does not alter the affinity of the enzyme for its substrate or cofactors. Thus, our data indicate that the increase in ATPase activity does not occur as a direct result of PHA action on the cell membrane.

The mechanism of the Mg2+-dependent myosin subfragment 1 catalyzed hydrolysis of GTP and 2-amino-6-mercapto-9-beta-ribofuranosylpurine 5'-triphosphate (thioGTP) has been investigated by rapid-reaction techniques. The myosin was isolated from rabbit skeletal muscle. The steady-state intermediate of these reactions consists pre-dominantly of a protein-substrate complex unlike the myosin subfragment 1 ATPase reaction which has a protein-products complex as the principal steady-state component. The mechanism of GTP hydrolysis catalyzed by subfragment 1 has other marked differences from the ATPase mechanism. The second-order rate constant of binding of GTP to subfragment 1 is tenfold greater than that for GDP binding. The dissociation rate constant of GDP from subfragment 1 is 0.06 s-1 compared with the subfragment 1 catalytic center activity for GTP hydrolysis of 0.5 s-1 at pH 8.0 and 20 degrees C. This shows that GDP bound to subfragment 1 forms a complex which is not kinetically competent to be an intermediate of the GTPase mechanism. GDP is hydrolyzed in the presence of subfragment 1 to GMP and Pi. The subfragment 1 GTPase mechanism has a nuber if features in common with that of the elongation factor Tu GTPase of the protein biosynthetic system of Escherichia coli.

The nucleoside triphosphatase activities of the nuclear envelopes from rat liver, pig liver and simian-virus-40-transformed mouse-embryo 3T3 cells were shown to exhibit similar parperties. All three preparations hydrolyse ATP, 2'-dATP, 3'-dATP, GTP, CTP and UTP in the presence of Mg2+, Ca2+, Mn2+ and Co2+ with a pH optimum of 8.0, are sensitive to inhibition by mercurials, arsenicals, quercetin, proflavin and adenosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate and are partially inactivated by exposure to high ionic strength. The kinetic behaviour is similar for all substrates irrespective of the source of material. The typical Eadie-Hofstee plot, which is concave upwards at pH 8.0 when the ionic strength is 20mM, becomes linear when the pH is increased to 8.5 or the ionic strength to 160mM. The overall evidence, particularly the labelling of only one polypeptide by [gamma-32P]ATP, suggests that under the conditions of preparation and assay used only one class of nucleoside triphosphatase active sites is detectable in nuclear envelopes. The importance of these results for an understanding of the role of the enzyme in vivo is discussed.

The ATP-phosphohydrolase activity of extracts prepared from bovine spermatozoa flagella (BSFE), was characterized with respect to enzyme, substrate, activator ion and salt concentration, temperature dependence and time stability. BSFE required the presence of a divalent cation for activity: Mg++ or Ca++ could function as activator; Mn++, Zn++ and Cd++ could not. EDTA, but not EGTA, was inhibitory to enzymatic activity. Ca++ inhibited the Mg++ stimulated activity. ATP was dephosphorylated more rapidly than GTP greater than CTP greater than ITP, and ADP was dephosphorylated at 40% of the rate of ATP. The magnesium activated ATPase was stimulated by potassium and inhibited by sodium ions. Activation of BSFE ATP-phosphohydrolase was maximal in the presence of Mg++ and ATP in equimolar concentrations and K+ (0.05-0.3 M) at 30 degrees C. Although the enzymatic activity of the extract was found to decrease rapidly with time, it could be maintained for up to three days by the addition of 2-beta-mercaptoethanol to the bovine spermatozoa flagellar extracts.

Adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) from Thiobacillus ferrooxidans was purified 55-fold. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the most purified fraction showed only one major band; histochemical analysis showed that the ATPase activity was associated with this band. The pH optimum is 9-10. The enzyme hydrolyzed ATP stoichiometrically to ADP and inorganic phosphate, the Km for this substrate being 7.75 times 10-3 M. GTP and ITP are alternate substrates, the Km values for these being 6.71 times 10-3 M and 3.12 times 10-3 M, respectively. ADP is slightly hydrolyzed. Magnesium, manganese, and calcium can serve as cofactors; Km values for these are 2.0 times 10-3 M, 9.4 times 10-4 M, and 8.0 times 10-4 M, respectively. The enzyme activity was not activated by either sodium or potassium, but a combination of the two ions were inhibitory. Azide and p-hydroxymercuribenzoate strongly inhibited the enzyme activity, whereas cyanide, dinitrophenol, and N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD) were without effect. The enzyme was cold labile at 0 degrees-C, but was more stable at 18-24 degrees-C.

The kinetic properties of the nonmitochondrial ATP-dependent Ca sequestering mechanism in disrupted nerve terminal (synaptosome) preparations have been investigated with radioactive tracer techniques; all solutions contained DNP, NaN3, and oligomycin, to block mitochondrial Ca uptake. The apparent half-saturation constant, KCa, for the nonmitochondrial Ca uptake is approximately 0.4 micrometer Ca; the Hill coefficient is approximately 1.6. Mg is also required for the Ca uptake, and the apparent KMg is approximately 80 micrometer. ATP and deoxy-ATP, but not CTP, GTP, ITP, UTP, ADP, or cyclic AMP, promote Ca uptake; the KATP, is approximately 10 micrometer. ATP analogs with blocked gamma-phosphate groups are unable to replace ATP. Particulate fractions from the disrupted synaptosomes possess Ca-dependent ATPase activity in the presence of Mg; the apparent KCa for this activity is 0.4--0.8 micrometer Ca, and the Hill coefficient is approximately 1.6. The Ca uptake and ATPase kinetic data suggest that the hydrolysis of 1 ATP may energize the transport of two Ca2+ ions into the storage vesicles. The second part of the article concerns the intraterminal distribution of Ca in "intact" terminals. When the terminals are disrupted after 45Ca loading, about one-half of the 45Ca is retained in the particulate material; some of this Ca, presumably stored in mitochondria, is released by the uncoupler, FCCP. Some of the 45Ca is released by A-23187, but not by FCCP; this fraction may be Ca stored in the nonmitochondrial sites described above. The proportion of 45Ca stored in the nonmitochondrial sites is increased when the Ca load is reduced or when the mitochondria are blocked with ruthenium red. These data indicate that the nonmitochondrial Ca storage sites are involved in intraterminal Ca buffering; they may play an important role in synaptic facilitation and post-tetanic potentiation, which result from Ca retention after neural activity.

Five enzyme complexes, which are concerned with electron transport and oxidative phosphorylation, have been isolated from beef heart mitochondria. Enzyme complexes I, II, III and IV are the electron transfer complexes discovered in 1961. Complex V is an energy-conserving complex. It catalyzes ATP-Pi exchange and ATP hydrolysis. The exchange reaction is sensitive to uncouplers, rutamycin, valinomycin plus K-+, dicyclorexylcarboditmide, arsenate, azide, and adenylyl imidodiphosphate. It is also specific for ATP; ITP, GTP and UTP are essentially ineffective. Studies with the photoaffinity labeling uncoupler, 2-azido-4-nitrophenol (NPA), have shown that the mitochondrial uncoupler-binding sites are located exclusively in complex V. Complexes I, III and IV, which carry the three coupling sites of the respiratory chain, had negligible capacity for the binding of NPA, whereas the uncoupler-binding capacity of complex V appeared to be increased two- to threefold as compared to mitochondria. Complexes I, II, III, IV and V are obtained from the same batch of mitochondria by a simple fractionation procedure, which employs cholate, deoxycholate, ammonium acetate and ammonium sulfate. Studies with NPA have shown that mitochondria contain per milligram protein about 0.6 nmole of uniformly reacting uncoupler binding site. All of the uncouplers tested appeared to interact competitively with this site. Photoaffinity labeling with tritiated NPA has shown that a major portion of NPA binds to a polypeptide of molecular weight between 26,000 and 30,000. Other studies on the mechanism of uncoupling have shown that picrate is a membrane-impermeable uncoupler. It cannot uncouple mitochondria. However, it is an effective uncoupler of ATP synthesis and ATP-induced transhydrogenation or reverse electron transfer when used in conjunction with sonicated submitochondrial particles, which have an inside-out orientation of the inner membrane with respect to the medium. In these particles, picrate binds to the same uncoupler-binding site as NPA and other uncouplers. However, unlike the membrane-permeable uncouplers, picrate is a poor protonophore. It has a very small effect on the proton permeability of phosphorylating submitochondrial vesicles, even at two to three times the concentration needed for complete uncoupling. The increase in the proton permeability of submitochondrial vesicles caused by such high concentrations of picrate (500 mum) can be achieved with approximately 5 mum 2,4-dinitrophenol. At this concentration, dinitrophenol results in only about 20% uncoupling.

Hydrolysis of extracellular ATP and other nucleoside phosphates by A-431 human epidermoidal carcinoma cells was studied. The hydrolysis of extracellular ATP by these cells required either Mg2+ or Ca2+, and either cation could be replaced by Co2+, Fe2+, or Mn2+. Nucleoside triphosphates (ATP, GTP, CTP, UTP, and dTTP), but not nucleoside diphosphates, were hydrolyzed by the cells with Km and Vmax values similar to those for ATP (0.9-1.1 mmol/l and 6-10 nmol Pi formed/10(6) cells, respectively). The hydrolysis of ATP was inhibited strongly by ATP-gamma S and AMPPNP, and weakly by AMPCPP and ADP-beta S, but not by AMPCPP or AMPCP. Since the hydrolysis of [gamma-32P]ATP was inhibited by all these nucleoside triphosphates, the binding site for ATP is presumed to be the same as that for the other nucleoside triphosphates. All these results indicate that ecto-ATPase activity associated with A-431 cells is due to ecto-nucleoside triphosphatase. The nucleotide specificity shown in the present study indicates that ecto-nucleoside triphosphatase associated with A-431 cells is a molecule different from P2-purinergic receptors which can be stimulated specifically with nucleoside phosphates like ATP, ADP, UTP, UDP, and GTP, but not by other nucleotides.

Sarcoplasmic reticulum with calcium transport activity has been isolated from the cross-striated adductor muscle of the scallop, which lives in cold (< or = 20 degrees C) sea water, by using pH 7.0 buffer solution both to homogenize the tissue and to sediment the membrane fraction. The yield of the preparation was 60-100 mg protein from 100 g of the scallop muscle. Ca(2+)-activated ATPase protein of about 100 kDa accounted for 40-50% of the protein preparation. The maximum activities of ATP-dependent, oxalate-facilitated calcium accumulation and Ca(2+)-ATPase were observed at a pH of about 7.0 and temperature of 20-30 degrees C, and their values were about 2 mumol Ca2+/mg of protein/min and about 3 mumol ATP hydrolysis/mg of protein/min, respectively. At 0 degree C, 10-20% of these activities was maintained, while at 37 degrees C, the activities were irreversibly lost. The Ca(2+)-ATPase activity was half-maximally activated at about 0.3 microM [Ca2+]. The ATPase activity exhibited non-Michaelian behavior with respect to ATP, with two different Km values of approximately 10 microM and 0.1-0.3 mM. GTP, CTP, and ITP were also hydrolyzed by the preparation at a rate of 10-30% of that of ATP. The preparation was stored at -80 degrees C with retention of function for about a year.
