Poly L-lysine, poly L-ornithine, and histone significantly inhibited the iodide uptake by the thyroid slices, as previously reported. These basic polymers diminshed Na, K-ATPase and concomitantly markedly elevated Mg-ATPase activity in the NaI-treated microsomal preparation and the plasma membrane fraction obtained from thyroid. Poly L-glutamic acid, which was noneffetive to the iodide uptake in vitro, did not show such phenomenon. K-dependent p-nitrophenylphosphatase activity which is considered to reflect the terminal step of the reaction sequence of Na, K-ATPase was also inhibited by poly L-lysine. The effects mentioned above of poly L-lysine and other basic polyamino acids on membrane ATPase system were only found in the preparations from thyroid. The inhibitory effect of these reagents on thyroidal iodide uptake was discussed in terms of the change in membrane ATPase activities.

Essential redistribution of various polyphosphate fractions was shown during dehydration and subsequent reactivation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae 14. Dehydration no matter what method was used, was followed by an increase in the content of acid soluble polyphosphates (fraction Poly P1) and a decrease of that of salt soluble polyphosphates (fraction Poly P2). Reactivation of dehydrated yeast was, on the contrary, accompanied by a decrease in the PP 1 and an increase in the Poly P2 content. A direct correlation between the Poly P2 fraction and total nucleic acids was demonstrated under various conditions of dehydration and subsequent reactivation. An inverse correlation between the content of the Poly P2, fraction and nucleic acids, on the one hand, and that of the Poly P1 fraction, on the other, was observed. Study of activities of polyphosphatases, tripolyphosphatase, pyrophosphatase and ATPase in dehydrated yeast showed values similar to those in original cells.

In our previous study, we identified four chromatographically distinct DNA-dependent ATPases, B, C1, C2, and C3, in mouse FM3A cells (Tawaragi, Y., Enomoto, T., Watanabe, Y., Hanaoka, F., and Yamada, M. (1984) Biochemistry 23, 529-533). The DNA-dependent ATPase C1 has been purified and characterized in detail. A divalent cation and a polynucleotide cofactor were required for the ATPase activity. Poly(dT), single-stranded circular DNA, and heat-denatured DNA were very effective. Almost no ATPase activity was observed with S1 nuclease-treated native DNA. ATPase C1 hydrolyzed ATP only among the ribo- and deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates tested, and this fact distinguished ATPase C1 from ATPases B, C2, and C3, because the latter enzymes are capable of hydrolyzing both ATP and dATP. The purified DNA-dependent ATPase C1 fraction was shown to have a DNA helicase activity that was dependent on hydrolysis of ATP. The helicase activity and DNA-dependent ATPase activity cosedimented at 5.2 S on glycerol gradient centrifugation. Both activities showed similar preferences for nucleoside 5'-triphosphates and similar requirements for divalent cations. The DNA helicase activity was inhibited by the addition of single-stranded DNAs that served as cofactor for the ATPase activity. The efficiency of a single-stranded DNA to inhibit DNA helicase activity correlated well with the capacity of the DNA to serve as cofactor for DNA-dependent ATPase activity. The helicase was shown to migrate along the DNA strand in the 5' to 3' direction, which is the same direction of migration of the mouse DNA helicase B (Seki, M., Enomoto, T., Yanagisawa, J., Hanaoka, F., and Ui, M. (1988) Biochemistry 27, 1766-1771).

We recently reported that autophosphorylated rat brain protein kinase C (PKC) catalyzes a Ca2(+)- and phosphatidylserine- (PS-) dependent ATPase reaction. The Ca2(+)- and PS-dependent ATPase and histone kinase reactions of PKC each had a Km app(ATP) of 6 microM. Remarkably, the catalytic fragment of PKC lacked detectable ATPase activity. In this paper, we show that subsaturating concentrations of protein substrates accelerate the ATPase reaction catalyzed by PKC and that protein and peptide substrates of PKC induce ATPase catalysis by the catalytic fragment. At subsaturating concentrations, histone III-S and protamine sulfate each accelerated the ATPase activity of PKC in the presence of Ca2+ and PS by as much as 1.5-fold. At saturating concentrations, the protein substrates were inhibitory. Poly(L-lysine) failed to accelerate the ATPase activity, indicating that the acceleration observed with histone III-S and protamine sulfate was not simply a result of their gross physical properties. Furthermore, histone III-S induced the ATPase activity of the catalytic fragment of PKC, at both subsaturating and saturating histone concentrations. The induction of ATPase activity was also elicited by the peptide substrate Arg-Arg-Lys-Ala-Ser-Gly-Pro-Pro-Val, when the peptide was present at concentrations near its Km app. The induction of the ATPase activity by the nonapeptide provides strong evidence that the binding of phospho acceptor substrates to the active site of PKC can stimulate ATP hydrolysis. Taken together, our results indicate that PKC-catalyzed protein phosphorylation is inefficient, since it is accompanied by Pi production.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

RNA-dependent ATPase activity of Rho + and two mutant proteins Rho15 and Rho301 was studied. It was shown that monomeric Rho forms oligomers in the presence of ATP. This ATP-induced structural change of Rho allows protection of the protein from heat inactivation. Poly(C), which highly activates Rho ATPase, was found to potentiate heat inactivation of Rho301, but no Rho + and Rho15, only under optimal conditions of ATP hydrolysis. It was also shown that Rho301 is defective in interaction with RNA. The molecular model postulating that Rho-catalysed ATP hydrolysis with free RNA involves the cyclic process of protein dissociation and reassembly is postulated.

We investigated the endogenous mono(ADP-ribosyl)ation of the sarcoplasmic reticulum from rabbit skeletal muscle. The autoradiogram obtained after sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the [adenylate-32P]NAD-treated sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles revealed a major band corresponding to the MW 105 K Ca2+-dependent ATPase and other bands corresponding to proteins of MW 153, 60 and 38 K and those of 125 to 135 K range. The addition of poly L-lysine during the incubation led to an enhancement of the modification. Poly L-lysine is proving to be a pertinent tool for identifying acceptor proteins.

There are at least four forms of DNA-dependent ATPase in mouse FM3A cells [Tawaragi, Y., Enomoto, T., Watanabe, Y., Hanaoka, F., & Yamada, M. (1984) Biochemistry 23, 529-533]. One of these, ATPase B, has been purified and characterized in detail. During the purification of the enzyme, we encountered the difficulties that the enzyme could not be recovered well from the single-stranded DNA-cellulose column and that the enzyme activity was distributed very broadly. The problems were resolved by the addition of ATP in the elution buffer. The ATPase has a sedimentation coefficient of 5.5 S in both high salt and low salt. The enzyme hydrolyzes rNTPs and dATP, but ATP and dATP are preferred substrates. Adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (ATP-gamma-S), 5'-adenylyl methylenediphosphate (AMP-PCP), and 5'-adenylyl imidodiphosphate (AMP-PNP) inhibit the enzyme activity. The enzyme is insensitive to ouabain, oligomycin, novobiocin, and ethidium bromide. A divalent cation (Mg2+ congruent to Mn2+ greater than Ca2+) as well as a nucleic acid cofactor is required for activity. Poly(dT), single-stranded circular DNA, and heat-denatured DNA were very effective. Native DNA was little effective with an efficiency of 29% of that obtained with heat-denatured DNA. In addition, the enzyme showed almost no activity with poly(dA).poly(dT) although it showed very high activity with the noncomplementary combination of poly(dT) and poly(dC), suggesting that ATPase B requires single-stranded DNA for activity. ATP altered the affinity of ATPase B for single-stranded DNA. The interaction of the enzyme with DNA was studied by Sephadex G-200 gel filtration assay.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Poly(C) and heparin at low concentrations (1 microgram/ml) prevent the RNA synthesis termination protein rho from functioning during the biosynthesis of RNA from bacteriophage T7 DNA catalyzed by Escherichia coli RNA polymerase. Both of these polyanions inhibit the binding of rho to isolated T7 RNA. Heparin also inhibits rho ATPase when isolated RNA transcripts are used as cofactors. It is concluded that the polyanions inhibit termination by binding to the site on rho that is normally used for the initial interaction with a nascent RNA transcript in the rho-mediated release of RNA. Since one of the inhibitors, poly(C), is itself a potent activator for rho ATPase, it is also concluded that the ATP hydrolysis step that is required for rho termination has to be coupled to an action of rho on the RNA molecule to be released from the transcription complex.

Nuclear envelopes contain a nucleoside triphosphatase which is thought to be involved in the supply of energy for nucleo-cytoplasmic RNA transport. This enzyme is stimulated most efficiently by poly(A) and to a lesser extent by poly(G) and poly(dT). Half-maximal stimulation of the enzyme from rat liver nuclei, which was associated with the poly(A)-specific Endoribonuclease IV and was free from poly(A) polymerase and Endoribonuclease V activity, was determined to occur at a concentration of 1.1 X 10(6) poly(A) molecules/nuclear ghost. Double-reciprocal plot analysis revealed a 2.8-fold stimulation of the enzyme by poly(A). Poly(A) in the hybrid form had no influence on the activity of the nucleoside triphosphatase. Stimulation by oligo(A) required a minimal chain length of 18 nucleotide units. Naturally occurring RNA species enhanced the nucleoside triphosphatase activity, provided they contained a poly(A) segment. Using poly(A)(+)mRNA, half-maximal stimulation was determined to proceed at 0.5 X 10(6) molecules/nuclear ghost. Removal of the poly(A) segment from mRNA mRNA abolished the stimulatory effect on the enzyme. Microtubule protein was found to inhibit the nucleoside triphosphatase efficiently. At a concentration of 2.0 mg/ml, polymerized microtubule protein reduced the enzyme activity by 96%. Dimeric tubulin was less inhibitory, while actin was without any significant effect. From these findings it is suggested that a possible nucleoside triphosphatase-mediated transport of poly(A)(+) mRNA through nuclear envelope is controlled firstly, by the poly(A) segment of this RNA species and secondly, by cytoplasmic microtubules.

An enzymatic activity that synthesizes oligoribonucleotides in lengths of 9-10 nucleotides and multiples thereof has been purified over 10,000-fold from mouse hybridoma cells. The oligoribonucleotides serve as primers to initiate DNA synthesis, and the activity has properties expected of mammalian DNA primase. The most highly purified fraction has two major protein components, as determined by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate, of 56,000 and 46,000 Da. These proteins co-purify in a 1:1 stoichiometry along with oligoribonucleotide synthesis activity and with an activity that initiates the synthesis of DNA by DNA polymerase alpha. The sedimentation coefficient on glycerol gradients is 5.5 S, and this is consistent with one 56,000- and one 46,000-Da subunit/native enzyme. No DNA polymerase activity was detected in the most highly purified fraction. Poly(dIT) is the most active template, whereas a variety of single-stranded DNA templates are 10-15% as active and double-stranded DNA templates are 10-15% as active and double-stranded DNA is less than 1%. rATP is an absolute requirement as is Mg2+. No ATPase activity was detected with or without addition of DNA, single- or double-stranded. (NH4)2SO4 and NaPO4 buffer, pH 7.6, are inhibitory above 20 mM, whereas KCl is inhibitory above 80 mM. beta-D-arabinose-CTP is a strong inhibitor of primase; approximately 50% inhibition is observed when present at one-fifth the concentration of rCTP.
