We have screened the bloodstream form of Trypanosoma brucei for the presence of enzymes that could serve as markers for the microbodies and the highly repressed mitochondrion of this organism. None of seven known microbody enzymes were detected at all, but glycerol-3-phosphate oxidase, ATPase, isocitrate dehydrogenase, acid phosphatase and part of the hyperoxide dismutase and malate dehydrogenase activities were found to be particle-bound after fractionation of homogenates by differential centrifugation. Part of the ATPase activity was sensitive to oligomycin, an inhibitor of oxidative phosphorylation. This oligomycin-sensitive activity can serve as a specific marker for the mitochondria. More than 80% of the NAD+-linked glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase in T. brucei was found to be particulate and latent. The enzyme could be activated by Triton X-100, by the combined action of sonication and salt, but not by salt alone, and partially by freezing and thawing. We conclude that the NAD+-linked glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase is located inside an organelle.

A carrier protein mediating alanine transport was purified from the membranes of the thermophilic bacterium PS3, by ion exchange chromatography in the presence of both Triton X-100 and urea. The alanine carrier was recovered in the nonadsorbed fraction from either DEAE- or CM-cellulose columns, suggesting that its isoelectric point was in the neutral pH region. The final preparation contained virtually no electron transfer components, ATPase, or NADH dehydrogenase. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate revealed that the final preparation consisted of two major protein components with molecular weights of 36,000 and 9,400. Active transport of alanine after incorporation of the alanine carrier into reconstituted proteoliposomes was driven not only by an artificial membrane potential generated by potassium ion diffusion via valinomycin but also by mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase incorporated into the same liposomes and supplemented with both cytochrome c and ascorbic acid. The membrane-integrated portion (TFo) of the ATPase complex uncoupled alanine transport by conducting protons across the membrane.

Adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activities of sonically prepared submitochondrial particles of rat liver and Morris Hepatoma 3924A were compared as a function of changes in temperature. On Arrhenius plots, a discontinuity at 18 degrees was observed for the rat liver mitochondrial ATPase, while the hepatoma mitochondrial ATPase revealed a discontinuity at 20.4 degrees. Values for energy of activation of the rat liver and hepatoma mitochondrial ATPases were comparable below the break (34.5 and 35.5 kcal/mole, respectively) and above the break (11.6 and 9.2 kcal/mole, respectively). Solubilization of the mitochondrial membrances with Triton X-100 resulted in constant and similar values of energy of activation for the ATPases Km values of hepatoma and rat liver mitochondrial ATPases for adenosine triphosphate were similar in both the membrane-bound and solubilized states. The lack of uncoupler-stimulated ATPase activity in hepatoma mitochondria is apparently not due to membranous effects on the affinity of the ATPase for adenosine triphosphate.

In order to investigate the roles of the physical states of phospholipid and protein in the enzymatic behavior of the Ca2+ -ATPase from sarcoplasmic reticulum, we have modified the lipid phase of the enzyme, observed the effects on the enzymatic activity at low temperatures, and correlated these effects with spectroscopic measurements of the rotational motions of both the lipid and protein components. Replacement of the native lipids with dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine inhibits ATPase activity and decreases both lipid fluidity, as monitored by EPR spectroscopy on a stearic acid spin label, and protein rotational mobility, as monitored by saturation transfer EPR spectroscopy on the covalently spin-labeled enzyme. Solubilization of the lipid-replaced enzyme with Triton X-100 reverses all three of these effects. Ten millimolar CaCl2 added either to the enzyme associated with the endogenous lipids or to the Triton X-100 soulbilized enzyme inhibits both ATPase activity and protein rotational mobility but has no detectable effect on the lipid mobility. These results are consistent with the proposal that both lipid fluidity and protein rotational mobility are essential for enzymatic activity.

Protein composition of cardiac sarcolemmal membranes was analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Membranes were observed to contain about 20 polypeptide bands ranging from 18000 to 200 000 dalton mass. Out of these, six bands were prominent and together comprised 57% of the membrane protein. When sarcolemmal membranes, phosphorylated by [gamma-(32)P] ATP in the presence of Ca(2+) or Na+ with and without K+, were fractionated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis at pH 2.4, the band III region (Mr 105 000) of gels was found to contain active sites of monomeric Ca-ATPase and (Na,K)ATPase. Bands I (Mr greater than 200 000), II (Mr 150 000), III (Mr 105 000), and VI (Mr 47 000) were accesible to trypsin; the extent of proteolysis was dependent on the time of exposure to, and the concentration of, trypsin (i.e, ratio of sarcolemmal protein/trypsin). Addition of molar sucrose protected sarcolemmal proteins from the tryptic proteolysis. Calcium transport was reduced by the action of trypsin; the degree of reduction was influenced by the time of exposure of membranes to trypsin as well as the concentration of trypsin. (Mg,Ca)ATPase activity, on the other hand, was elevated moderately at lower concentration and reduced at higher concentration of trypsin. Treatment with phospholipase C cium transport and (Mg,Ca)ATPase activity; electrophoretic patterns were unaffected by this treatment. Addition of lecithin to phospholipase C treated membranes produced a moderate increase in calcium transport. Exposure to Triton X-100 (1%) specifically solubilized three protein bands (Mr90 000, 67 000, and 57 000), whereas exposure to deoxycholate (1%) preferentially solubilized high-molecular-weight proteins, including band III (Mr 105 000); Lubrol-PX (1%) caused nonspecific solubilization of proteins, although the extent of solubilization with Lubrol-PX was considerably less than with either Triton or deoxycholate.

Treatment of demembranated sea urchin sperm axonemes with an extraction solution containing 0.6 M NaCl, pH 7.0 for 10 min at 4 degrees C yields a solution of dynein 1 having a low, latent specific ATPase activity of about 0.25 mumol of Pi mg(-1) min(-1). Exposure of this dynein solution to 0.1% Triton-X-100 for 10 min at 25 degrees C causes an increase in its ATPase activity to about 3 mumol of Pi mg(-1) min(-1). A similar activation can be obtained by treating at 42 degrees C or by reacting with 60 mol of p-chloromercuribenzene sulfonate/10(6) g of protein. The effects of these activating procedures are not additive, suggesting that they lead to a common activated state. Purification of the latent activity dynein 1 by sucrose density gradient centrifugation yields a monodisperse preparation sedimenting at 21 S, and having a molecular weight of 1,250,000 as determined by sedimentation diffusion and sedimentation equilibrium. Activation of the latent dynein 1 with Triton X-100 converts it to a form sedimenting at 10 to 14 S. The 21 S dynein is also converted to a 10 S form by dialysis against 5 mM imidazole/NaOH buffer, 0.1 mM EDTA, 5 mM 2-mercaptoethanol, pH 7, although in this case, the ATPase activity is increased only about 3-fold, with another 3-fold activation being obtainable upon subsequent treatment with Triton X-100. The 21 S latent form of dynein 1 may represent the intact dynein arms that form moving cross-bridges and generate active sliding between adjacent doublet tubules of the flagellar axoneme. Electrophoretic analysis on polyacrylamide gels in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate suggests a model in which the 21 S dynein 1 particle is composed of three subunits of about 330,000 daltons and one of each of three medium weight subunits of 126,000, 95,000, and 77,000 daltons. When latent dynein 1 is added back to NaCl-extracted axonemes in the presence of 0.15 M NaCl, it recombines stoichiometrically and restores the arms on the doublet tubules with a 6-fold activation of its ATPase activity measured in the absence of KCl.

Cytochrome c oxidase has been purified from rat liver mitochondria using affinity chromatography. The preparation contains 10.5 to 13.4 nmol of heme a + a3 per mg of protein and migrates as a single band during polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under nondissociating conditions. It has a heme a/a3 ratio of 1.12 and is free of cytochromes b, c, and c1 as well as the enzymes, NADH dehydrogenase, succinic dehydrogenase, coenzyme Q-cytochrome c reductase, and ATPase. The enzyme preparation consists of six polypeptides having apparent Mr of 66,000, 39,000, 23,000, 14,000, 12,500 and 10,000 as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The peptide composition is similar to those found for cytochrome c oxidases from other systems. The enzymatic activity of the purified enzyme is completely inhibited by carbon monoxide or cyanide, partially inhibited by Triton X-100 and dramatically enhanced by Tween 80 or phospholipids.

When (Na+ + K+)-ATPase is reacted with Cu2+ or Cu2+-phenanthroline, cross-linking of the two subunits (alpha and beta) occurs. The major products are alpha,beta- and alpha,alpha-dimers. The alpha,beta-dimer is unstable in the presence of EDTA, but becomes stable when it is first exposed to digitonin or Triton X-100. Conversion of alpha-CU2+-beta to alpha-S-S-beta is suggested. If the enzyme that is pretreated with these detergents is used, only the stable alpha,beta-dimer is obtained, and the formation of alpha,alpha-dimer is inhibited. The data are consistent with alpha 2 beta 2 quaternary structure of the enzyme.

A large fraction of the Ca-2plus- and Mg-2plus-dependent ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3) in sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes solubilized with Triton X-100 was phosphorylated with Pi. The phosphorylation required Mg-2plus but was strongly inhibited by low concentrations of Ca-2plus. A Ca-2plus ion concentration of 30 muM caused half-maximum inhibition in the presence of 50 mM MgCl2. The phosphorylated enzyme showed a rapid turnover and was in dynamic equilibrium with Pi in the medium. At equilibrium the amount of the phosphorylated enzyme increased markedly with increased in the reaction temperature. The apparent standard free energy change, the apparent standard enthalpy change, and the apparent standard entropy change in the formation of the phosphorylated enzyme from the enzyme-phosphate complex in the presence of excess Mg-2plus at 37 degrees and pH 7.0 were, respectively, 0.35 Cal per mol, 15.9 Cal per mol, and 50.2 e.u. per mol. The susceptibility of the acid-denatured phosphorylated enzyme to hydroxylamine showed that the phosphorylated enzyme is of an acyl phosphate type. The present results are consistent with the probability that the phosphorylation results from reversal of late steps in the Ca-2plus transport process. The results clearly show that the phosphorylated enzyme is stabilized by a great increase in entropy upon its formation from the enzyme-phosphate complex.

1. A stable ATPase complex with sensitivity to dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (TFo-F1) was purified from the membranes of the thermophilic aerobic bacterium PS3, by ion exchange chromatography in the presence of Triton X-100. 2. The ATPase of TFo-F1 was maximal at 70 degrees at pH 8.6 and was stable after monomerization in 4 M urea and 0.5% Triton X-100 at 25 degrees. The activity was dependent on Mg2+, Co2+, or Mn2+, and it became insensitive to dicyclohexylcarbodiimide when Ca2+ or Cd2+ was added instead. 3. TFo-F1 required P-lipids of this bacterium contained branched fatty acyl groups but no unsaturated groups and were stable against oxidation and heat. 4. Studies by electron microscopy, gel electrophoresis, and use of anti-ATPase antibody and [3H]acetyl-ATPase indicated that the TFo-F1 complex was composed of an ATPase moiety (TF1, five different subunits) and a hydrophobic moiety (TFo, three different subunits. TFo conferred TF1 with sensitivity to dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. 5. Vesicles catalyzing 32Pi-ATP exchange and ATP-driven enhancement of fluorescence of anilinonaphthalene sulfonate were reconstituted by dialyzing pure TFo-F1 and P-lipids together, and were active even at 50-75 degrees. The vesicles reconstituted from TFo-F1 and bacterial P-lipids were more stable than those reconstituted from TFo-F1 and soybean P-lipids.
