Metal (Me) and MeATP interactions with adenylate cyclases associated with rabbit ventricular particles and with a detergent-dispersed preparation from rat cerebellum have been studied. data were simulated to fit kinetic models in which an inhibitor (HATP or ATP) is added in constant proportion to the variable substrate (MeATP). The specific models considered were that the enzyme binds (a) MeATP as the substrate; (b) MeATP as the substrate and HATP or ATP as an inhibitor; (c) MeATP as the substrate and free Me as an activator; and (d) MeATP as the substrate, free Me as an activator, and HATP or ATP as an inhibitor. Both equilibrium-ordered and random (rapid equilibrium assumption) types of sequential kinetic models were considered. The various models were tested using cardiac particulate adenylate cyclase in the presence of either a phosphoenolpyruvate-pyruvate kinase or a creatine phosphate-creatine kinase ATP-regeneration system. Although the enzyme with either system appeared to bind Mg2+ as an activator, one or both ATP-regeneration systems also seemed to interact directly with adenylate cyclase, making clear interpretations difficult. With the phosphoenolpyruvate-pyruvate kinase system, kinetic patterns on double reciprocal plots were linear as a function of MgATP, but with creatine phosphate-creatine kinase, kinetic patterns were concave downward. The kinetic models were further tested using the detergent-dispersed cerebellar enzyme, a preparation with low adenosine triphosphatase activity and not requiring the addition of an ATP-regeneration system. Reciprocal plots were linear and intersecting as a function of either MeATP or Me (Me = Mg2+ or Mn2+), and secondary replots of slopes and intersecting as function of either MeATP or Me (Me = Mg2+ or Mn2+), and secondary replots of slopes and intercepts also were linear. These data indicate that the brain detergent-dispersed enzyme conforms to a bireactant, sequential mechanism where free cation is a required activator and free ATP is not a potent inhibitor.

The targeting of creatine kinase isoenzymes to specific sites within muscle cells provides a system for the regeneration of ATP in situ from ADP and creatine phosphate. We have recently reported the colocalization of brain-type (B) creatine kinase and the nonsarcomeric mitochondrial creatine kinase isoenzymes in the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle in the rat kidney, suggesting that creatine kinase may regenerate ATP for sodium transport (Friedman, D.L., and Perryman, M.B. (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 22404-22410). In order to test the hypothesis regarding the association of B creatine kinase with sodium transport, we examined the creatine kinase enzymes in the rectal (salt-secreting) gland of the dogfish shark which contains high levels of the Na+/K(+)-ATPase. The creatine kinase isoform composition was determined by non-denaturing electrophoresis, immunoblotting, protein purification, and amino acid sequence analysis. The results demonstrate both B creatine kinase and mitochondrial creatine kinase proteins are present in the rectal gland, an isoform composition which is the same as in the mammalian kidney. By using a combination of chromatographic techniques, shark B creatine kinase was purified to homogeneity and partial sequence data was obtained from two cyanogen bromide peptide fragments. One of these fragments contains the active site and is identical at all sequenced residues with the corresponding region from the echinoderm sperm flagellar creatine kinase, and is 96% homologous with both chicken and rat B creatine kinase subunits. The other fragment corresponds to a region near the N-terminal of mammalian creatine kinases and is 89% homologous with B creatine kinase from chicken. The localization of these isoforms was examined by immunocytochemistry using subunit specific antisera. Mitochondrial creatine kinase and B creatine kinase immunoreactivity are detected in all tubules, and is restricted to the basal region of the cells, which is the site of the Na+/K(+)-ATPase. The conservation of creatine kinase isoform expression in excretory tissue, and the localization of creatine kinase immunoreactivity in the basal region of the tubule cells, demonstrate that subcellular compartmentation of B creatine kinase may underly the functional coupling of creatine kinase activity with sodium transport.

A smooth muscle plasma membrane vesicular fraction (PMV) purified for the (Ca2+/Mg2+)-ATPase has endogenous glycolytic enzyme activity. In the presence of glycolytic substrate (fructose 1,6-diphosphate) and cofactors, PMV produced ATP and lactate and supported calcium uptake. The endogenous glycolytic cascade supports calcium uptake independent of bath [ATP]. A 10-fold dilution of PMV, with the resultant 10-fold dilution of glycolytically produced bath [ATP] did not change glycolytically fueled calcium uptake (nanomoles per milligram protein). Furthermore, the calcium uptake fueled by the endogenous glycolytic cascade persisted in the presence of a hexokinase-based ATP trap which eliminated calcium uptake fueled by exogenously added ATP. Thus, it appears that the endogenous glycolytic cascade fuels calcium uptake in PMV via a membrane-associated pool of ATP and not via an exchange of ATP with the bulk solution. To determine whether ATP produced endogenously was utilized preferentially by the calcium pump, the ATP production rates of the endogenous creatine kinase and pyruvate kinase were matched to that of glycolysis and the calcium uptake fueled by the endogenous sources was compared with that fueled by exogenous ATP added at the same rate. The rate of calcium uptake fueled by endogenous sources of ATP was approximately twice that supported by exogenously added ATP, indicating that the calcium pump preferentially utilizes ATP produced by membrane-bound enzymes.

Epithelium of the inner ear in the gerbil and mouse was examined immunocytochemically for presence of creatine kinase (CK). Marginal cells of the cochlear stria vascularis and dark cells and transitional cells of the vestibular system were found to contain an abundance of the MM isozyme (MM-CK). CK in these cells concurs with that which is coupled to Na,K-ATPase in other cells and is considered to supply ATP for the Na,K-ATPase that mediates the high KCl of endolymph. Inner hair cells revealed content of the BB isozyme and in this respect resembled the energy-transducing photoreceptor cells in retina. In addition, outer phalangeal (Deiters') cells stained for both MM- and BB-CK whereas inner phalangeal cells evidenced content of only the BB isozyme. Immunolocalization of CK appeared similar in mouse and gerbil inner ear. Specificity of the staining was affirmed by observations in agreement with those reported for CK in various cell types and by staining with antisera from more than one source.

Myotoxin a, a small basic polypeptide isolated from the venom of prairie rattlesnake (Crotalus viridis viridis), has been shown to bind to sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+)-ATPase. The attachment of myotoxin a to Ca(2+)-ATPase is believed to cause uncoupling of the calcium pump. In order to further elucidate which portion of myotoxin a is important for the uncoupling action, five peptides were synthesized and two peptide fragments were obtained by chemical cleavage. These peptides correspond to discrete portions of the primary sequence of myotoxin a. The peptides are equivalent to the primary sequence of myotoxin a from 1 to 16 residues, 7 to 22 residues, 13 to 28 residues, 19 to 34 residues, and 25 to 42 residues. Chemically produced fragments are equivalent to 1 to 28 residues and 29 to 42 residues of myotoxin a. Peptides of the sequences "YKQCHKKGGHCFPKEK" and "LGKMDCRWKWKCCKKGSG" of myotoxin a inhibited 45Ca uptake into isolated SR and bound to Ca(2+)-ATPase. The same peptides caused weak skeletal muscle vacuolization similar to that caused by native myotoxin a and increased serum creatine kinase activity. The active peptides correspond to the N-terminal and C-terminal portions of myotoxin a. The inactive or less active peptides have sequences which correspond to the middle sequence of myotoxin a. From this study, both the N-terminal and the C-terminal regions of primary sequence of myotoxin a are required to express myotoxin a's biological activity.

Ubiquinol-1 in aerated aqueous solution inactivates several enzymes--alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, Na+/K(+)-ATPase, creatine kinase and glutamine synthetase--but not isocitrate dehydrogenase and malate dehydrogenase. Ubiquinone-1 and/or H2O2 do not affect the activity of alkaline phosphatase and glutamine synthetase chosen as model enzymes. Dioxygen and transition metal ions, even if in trace amounts, are essential for the enzyme inactivation, which indeed does not occur under argon atmosphere or in the presence of metal chelators. Supplementation with redox-active metal ions (Fe3+ or Cu2+), moreover, potentiates alkaline phosphatase inactivation. Since catalase and peroxidase protect while superoxide dismutase does not, hydrogen peroxide rather than superoxide anion seems to be involved in the inactivation mechanism through which oxygen active species (hydroxyl radical or any other equivalent species) are produced via a modified Haber-Weiss cycle, triggered by metal-catalyzed oxidation of ubiquinol-1. The lack of efficiency of radical scavengers and the almost complete protection afforded by enzyme substrates and metal cofactors indicate a 'site-specific' radical attack as responsible for the oxidative damage.

Myosin and creatine kinase were co-immobilized onto Immunodyne films to mimic the behaviour of creatine kinase bound to the M-line of myofilaments. The Mg-ATPase activity of bound myosin was studied by a coupled enzymatic assay, which detects Mg-ADP in the bulk solution by means of pyruvate kinase and lactate dehydrogenase. The competition for Mg-ADP between pyruvate kinase and creatine kinase either free in solution or co-immobilized with myosin was studied at various creatine phosphate concentrations. Bound creatine kinase competed efficiently when present in very low amounts, corresponding to an activity ratio higher than 1:20,000 between creatine kinase and pyruvate kinase and a molar ratio higher than 1:1000 between creatine kinase and myosin. The Mg-ADP produced by myosin ATPase in the vicinity of the film did not diffuse into the bulk solution but, in the presence of creatine phosphate, was recycled into Mg-ATP by the neighbouring creatine kinase. The existence of an unstirred layer near the surface of the film is sufficient to explain the channeling of ADP (or ATP) between co-immobilized myosin and creatine kinase, without direct interaction or 'intimate coupling' between the enzymes. The problem now is to determine the importance of this kind of facilitated diffusion in the myofilaments in vivo.

Treatment of perfused rat hearts with 0.5 mM iodoacetamide (IAAm) for 15 min at different workloads resulting in a nearly complete inhibition of creatine kinase (CK, 99%) was followed by a rapid decline of the phosphocreatine (PCr) level (30%) and a 2-fold increase of the P(i) level which then stabilized. Conversely, the ATP content started to drop monotonously at the beginning of the IAAm washout and reached 30% 90 min after the IAAm removal under medium load. Under low workload the ATP decay occurred at later periods. Neither the ADP-stimulated mitochondrial respiration in skinned fibers, nor the Ca(2+)-stimulated ATPase activity of myofibrils was affected by IAAm treatment. The sensitivity of the resting tension of skinned fibers to Ca2+ tended to a slight increase. The cardiac work index (PRP-pressure-rate product) decreased by 25%, while the end diastolic pressure (EDP) rose by 15 mm Hg when IAAm acted under medium load. In contrast, under low work these parameters were practically stable. The hearts poisoned with IAAm performed a two times lower maximal work and had reduced (by 35%) oxygen consumption rates. The efficiency of energy utilization for mechanical work decreased by 40%. The changes in PRP and EDP correlated with the cytosolic [ATP]/[ADP] ratio in such a way that the decrease in the latter was associated with a decrease in PRP and the elevation of EDP. These data suggest that the creatine kinase system is necessary for the effective translation of a high [ATP]/[ADP] ratio from the intermembrane space of mitochondria to the cytoplasm, myofibrils and ionic pumps. This provides a high level of mechanical work and good relaxation of the left ventricle and protects cytosolic adenine nucleotides from the breakdown.

Malnutrition has been associated with changes in cardiac metabolism and performance. We have previously reported a diabetic-type cardiomyopathy associated with chronic food restriction and weight loss. Because the creatine-phosphocreatine-creatine kinase system is important in the contractile process, we studied the components of this system in rats fed a food-restricted diet (33% of control animal intake). After 4 weeks of food restriction, total creatine kinase (CK) activities were reduced by 28% in ventricles and by 38% in atria. The CK isoenzymes in the heart were not equally affected. The BB isoenzyme was decreased by 77% and 78%, the MB isoenzyme by 45% and 43%, the MM isoenzyme by 22% and 19% and CKmito by 16% and 15% in ventricles and atria, respectively. In contrast, brain CK activity which is predominantly the BB isoenzyme, was slightly higher in the food-restricted than in control rats. Further studies on ventricular tissue from food-restricted rats revealed a 27% decline in myofibrillar CR activity and a 58% decline in myofibrillar ATPase activity. Phosphocreatine and creatine concentrations were not changed by food restriction, however, ATP was decreased by 23% in ventricles from rats on the restricted diet. Cardiac mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation was also impaired. State 3 respiration with alpha-ketoglutarate was reduced 20% in the food-restricted heart. These changes are compared to those which we previously observed in the diabetic rat heart and the significance of these findings is discussed.

The kinetic influence of bound creatine kinase (CK) on the Ca(2+)-activated myosin ATPase was evaluated. ATPase rates were measured from 0.8 microM to 3.2 mM MgATP. Under control conditions, the apparent KmATP was 79.9 +/- 13.3 microM. In contrast, the addition of 12.2 mM phosphocreatine (PCr) decreased the apparent KmATP to a value of 13.6 +/- 1.4 microM. To determine if this reduction was merely the result of an ATP maintenance system, ATP was regenerated using either phosphoenolpyruvate and pyruvate kinase (PEP-PK), or PCr and soluble bovine cardiac CK. Data obtained with PEP + PK indicated an apparent KmATP of 65.5 +/- 7.3 microM. To study the effects of exogenous CK, the endogenous CK was irreversibly inhibited with 1 mM iodoacetamide. The kinetics of the ATPase were then examined by adding soluble CK to the incubation medium. Under these conditions, the KmATP was 56.4 +/- 0.86 microM. Therefore, these two ATP regeneration systems could not duplicate the effects of endogenous CK. The reduction of the apparent KmATP by endogenous CK was not the result of an altered inhibition by MgADP. MgADP inhibition was determined to be non-competitive, with a Ki of 5.0 +/- 0.1 mM. These data suggest that the observed kinetic effects reflect the proximity of the enzymes in the myofibrillar bundle, thus emphasizing the importance of bound CK for the localized regeneration of MgATP utilized by the myosin ATPase.
