Highly purified fraction of squid photoreceptor membranes exhibits relatively low activity of Na+,K+-ATPase. No correlation was observed between the distribution of rhodopsin and Na+,K+-ATPase activity among photoreceptor membrane subfractions obtained from rhabdomeres. On the basis of these data, it is suggested that Na+,K+-ATPase and rhodopsin are localized in different membrane structures. In most purified fractions of rhabdomeres, the ratio of rhodopsin to total protein amounted up to 45--50%. In Triton X-100 extracts from membrane fractions, significant enrichment in rhodopsin content was observed.

The properties of a Ca2+ activated adenosine triphosphatase shown to be present in homogenates of purified rat peritoneal mast cells were investigated. The enzyme was activated by Ca2+, Mg2+, and to a lesser extent by Mn2+ and Co2+. Ca2+ alone was necessary for full activity and the further addition of Mg2+ did not have any effect. The chelating agents EGTA (ethanedioxybis(ethylamine)tetra-acetate) and EDTA completely inhibited the reaction. The pH optimum was 7.8. Reduced glutathione, cysteine, dithiothreitol, N-ethylmaleimide, urea, ADP, NaF, increasing ionic strength and Triton X-100 all inhibited the reaction. On subcellular fractionation of mast-cell homogenates by density-gradient centrifugation, the distribution of Ca2+ activated adenosine triphosphatase resembled that of 5'-nucleotidase, but differed from that of the other markers used, suggesting localization in the plasma membrane. Further experiments indicated that the enzyme is present on the external surface of the plasma membrane.

1. The interaction of a variety of fluorescent probes with the membranes of adrenal medullary chromaffin granules is described. 2. Changes in the motional properties of the bound probes with temperature were investigated and evidence is presented which indicates that ordering of the membrane lipids occurs below 33 degrees C. 3. The ordering is characteristics of the membrane lipids and is retained by sonicated aqueous dispersions of the total lipid extracted from chromaffin granule membranes. 4. The ATPase and NADH:acceptor oxidoreductase activities of the chromaffin granule membrane have discontinuous Arrhenius temperature versus activity relationships with 'transitions' at 33 degrees C. 5. The ATPase has a second transition at 36.5 degrees C. 6. The 33 degrees C 'transition' for the NADH:acceptor oxidoreductase is removed by treatment with the detergent Triton X-100. 7. The correlation between the onset of lipid ordering and the change in activation energy of the membrane-bound enzyme activities is discussed in terms of the co-operative interactions of the different membrane components. The possible role of lipid ordering in exocytosis is discussed.

Rat spermatozoa from the cauda epididymidis were found to have a lower activity of the surface ATPase than the spermatozoa from the caput region. The enzyme from spermatozoa of both regions had the same Michaelis constant (Km) for ATP of 5 X 10(-4) M. It was partly inhibited by ouabain and fluoride, but strongly inhibited by Cu2+, Zn2+,p-chloromercuribenzoate, 8-anilino-1-naphthalenesulphonate Triton X-100, Lubrol-PX, urea, guanidine hydrochloride, sodium dodecyl sulphate and glycerylphosphorylcholine. The enzyme of the spermatozoa from the cauda epididymidis was more sensitive to inhibition by ouabain and fluoride but less sensitive to inhibition by Cu2+ than that of the cells form the caput region. The Arrhenius plot of the temperature dependence of enzymatic activity varied for the cells from the caput and cauda epididymidis. The differences in the enzyme properties of spermatozoa from the two regions of the epididymis suggested that the decline in the activity during epididymal maturation may reflect changes in the lipids and sulphydryl groups of the sperm membrane.

The N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD)-sensitive latent adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase) (EC 3.6.1.3; ATP phosphohydrolase) from Mycobacterium phlei has been purified to homogeneity and used to resotre oxidative phosphorylation to detergent-extracted membranes. The phosphorylation was inhibited by DCCD any by tetraphenylboron and valinomycin. The enzyme was solubilized from the membrane vesicles by treatment with cholate followed by extraction with Triton X-100. After partial purification on a sucrose gradient, the enzyme was purified to homogeneity by affinity chromatography on Sepharose coupled to ADP. The DCCD-sensitive latent ATPase of coupling factor from M. phlei consists of two components, the latent ATPase (Bcf4), which is insensitive to DCCD, and an intrinsic membrane component, BCF0. This hydrophobic portion of the DCCD-sensitive ATPase was partially purified on a sucrose gradient after solubilization with detergents from membrane vesicles that had been first depleted of the BCF4 by washing with 0.25 M sucrose. When BCF0 was combined with purified BCF4, the latent ATPase of the resulting complex was sensitive to DCCD. Moreover, like the purified DCCD-sensitive latent ATPase, the combined BCF4 and BCF0 restored coupled phosphorylation to detergent-extracted membranes.

Modification of calcium-translocating sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes (SR) with 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoate) (Nbs2) reveals four classes (kinetic sets) of sulfhydryl groups. Of the 25 mol/1.5 X 10(5) G OF SR protein (i.e., containing 1 mol of ATPase protein) estimated in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate, 8 mol are unreactive, while 7, 8, and 2 mol display pseudo-first-order rate constants (k1) of 0.16, 0.68, and 8.3 min(-1), respectively (25 decrees C, pH 7.8, 4 MM Nbs2). Under these conditions, the Ca-ATPase activity is lost with k1 = 0.73 min(-1), whereas the Ca-independent ATPase activity is essentially unchanged. These results are little changed by the presence of Mg2+ or Ba2+ in the modification mixture, while Ca2+ or Sr2+ causes all 16-17 reactable sulfhydryls to be modified with k1 = 0.50 and 0.53 min(-1), respectively. The corresponding values for the loss of Ca-ATPase activity are 0.53 and 0.67 min(-1); this suggests that blocking of only one of the 16-17 SH groups inactivates the enzyme, i.e., that there is a single "essential" SH group. The midpoint of the transition between the Ca2+-free and Ca2+-modification patterns occurs at a free Ca2+ concentration of about 0.9 muM, implying that it is Ca2+ binding at the active sites (KD = 0.1 muM), rather than at the low-affinity nonspecific sites, that effects a conformation change in the ATPase protein (which contains greater than 90% of the cysteines). A calcium-induced conformation change is also suggested by increased ultraviolet absorbance spectrum of the purified ATPase protein upon calcium binding. If protein-lipid interaction is disrupted with deoxycholate or Triton X-100 (which does not destroy the Ca-ATPase activity and hence presumably leaves the tertiary structure of the ATPase protein largely intact), 95% of the sulfhydryls react with Nbs2 considerably faster; thus, at 2 mg/ml o- deoxycholate, 14 groups react with k1 greater than 20, 5 with k1 = 2.3, and 5 with k1 = 0.4 min(-1). These results suggest that the inaccessibility of SH groups in the absence of detergents is due to extensive interaction of the bilayer phospholipids with the ATPase protein.

Glycerol-extracted cilia from Tetrahymena pyriformis were demembranated by treatment with Triton X-100 and then heated for up to 30 min at temperatures between 34-38 degrees C. Heat treatment caused an uncoupling of the ATPase from motility as indicated by an increase in ATPase activity and a loss of pellet height response. After heat treatment, the ATPase activity of the dynein in situ differed from that in unheated cilia as shown by an increased sensitivity to a lower temperature of assay (0 degrees C) and by a loss of the activation normally observed upon reaction with N-ethylmaleimide or p-phenylenedimaleimide. Upon extraction of the heat-treated cilia by Tris-EDTA, there was a large loss in ATPase activity so that the heat-treated cilia yielded a crude dynein fraction with a lower specific activity compared with that obtained from unheated controls. The difference was not due to a change in the amount of protein recovered or in the amount of ATPase activity which remained unextracted. Resolution of the crude dynein by sucrose density sedimentation indicated that activity was lost from both the 14S and 30S peaks but more so from the latter than from the former. Thus dynein in situ in cilia in which the ATPase has been uncoupled from motility by gentle heat treatment differs in several important respects from dynein inside unheated cilia.

The "total" ATPase activity of rabbit sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) vesicles includes a Ca2+-independent component ("basic") and Ca2+-dependent component ("extra"). Only the "extra" ATPase is coupled to Ca2+ transport. These activities can be measured under conditions in which the observed rates approximate maximal velocities. The "basic" ATPase is predominant in one of the various SR fractions obtained by prolonged density-gradient centrifugation of SR preparations already purified by repeated differential centrifugations and extractions at high ionic strength. This fraction (low dnesity, high cholesterol) has a protein composition nearly identical with that of other SR fractions in which the "extra" ATPase is predominant. In these other fractions the ratio of "extra" to "basic" ATPase activities is temperature dependent, being approximately 9.0 at 40 degrees C and 0.5 at 4 degrees C. In all the fractions and at all temperatures studied, similar steady-state levels of phosphorylated SR protein are obtained in the presence of ATP and Ca2+. Furthermore, in all cases the "basic" (Ca2+-independent) ATPase acquires total Ca2+ dependence upon addition of the nonionic detergent Triton X-100. This detergent also transforms the complex substrate dependence of the SRATPase into a simple dependence, displaying a single value for the apparent Km. The experimental findings indicate that the ATPase of rabbit SR exists in two distinct functional states (E1 and E2), only one of which (E2) is coupled to Ca2+ transport. The E1 in equilibrium E2 equilibrium is temperature-dependent and entropy-driven, indicative of its relation to the physical state of the ATPase protein in its membrane environment. Thenonlinearity of Arrhenius plots of Ca2+-dependent ("extra") ATPase activity and Ca2+ transport is explained in terms of simultaneous contribtuions from both the free energy of activation of enzyme catalysis and the free energy of conversion of E1 to E2. Thermal equilibrium between the two functional states is drastically altered by factors which affect membrane structure and local viscosity.

1. The presence of concanavalin A binding sugars in the glycoprotein component of a partially purified (Na++K+) ATPase preparation from dog fish salt gland was demonstrated by binding of a Triton X-100 extract of the enzyme and isolated glycoprotein to concanavalin A-Sepharose, and by binding of membrane-associated enzyme to free concanavalin A. 2. The binding of concanavalin A to the glycoprotein in both membrane-associated enzyme and a Lubrol extract of the enzyme had no effect on (Na++K+)-ATPase activity. Binding was completely inhibited by methyl-alpha-mannoside. Also, enzyme activity was not affected by removal of 50% of glycoprotein sialic acid by neuraminidase. These results suggest that the carbohydrate moiety of the glycoprotein does not play a catalytic role in the (Na++K+)-ATPase. 3. When a Triton X-100 extract of (Na++K+)-ATPase was chromatographed on concanavalin A-Sepharose, 37% of total protein was bound to the column and eluted by methyl-alpha-mannoside. The bound fraction was free of lipid, and contained not only the glycoprotein but also the large protein which is the catalytic subunit of the enzyme, and small amounts of other membrane derived proteins. The ratio of large protein to glycoprotein, as measured by the relative Coomassie blue absorbance of the two proteins separated by gel electrophoresis, was the same in the bound fraction as in the membrane. These results suggest that the glycoprotein and lareg protein are either associated together in the membrane or become associated during lipid replacement by Triton.
