Synthetic mRNAs (i.e. cRNA alpha and cRNA beta) were obtained by cell-free transcription of M13 KS(+) (Bluescript) expression vectors which contained the entire coding region of the alpha or beta subunits of lamb kidney Na,K-ATPase. Translation in reticulocyte lysates of cRNA alpha yielded full length alpha polypeptide, as well as a limited array of immunoprecipitable lower molecular weight products. cRNA beta yielded a single immunoprecipitable full length polypeptide. Association of the alpha polypeptide with the microsomal membranes was obtained only co-translationally. Fifteen to 50% of the membrane-associated alpha subunit was resistant to extraction with alkali. The resistance of a 29-kDa fragment to trypsinolysis indicated that the alpha subunit was inserted into microsomal membranes. In the presence of dog pancreatic microsomes, the beta polypeptide was glycosylated as indicated by the appearance of three higher molecular weight polypeptides that were sensitive to endoglycosidase H and bound to Concanavalin A. The beta subunit was predominantly translocated into the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum since 90% of the mass of the membrane-associated beta polypeptide was resistant to trypsin (i.e. reduced in size from 40 kDa to 37.5 kDa), and 95% of all of the beta chains were resistant to extraction with alkali. Neither the alpha nor the beta subunits have NH2-terminal leader signal sequences, but both may require the signal recognition receptor for membrane insertion, as evidenced by inhibition of incorporation of both subunits into microsomes pretreated with N-ethylmaleimide. Simultaneous translation of cRNA alpha and cRNA beta did not enhance membrane insertion of either the alpha or beta polypeptide.

Somatic mutations in a subset of growth hormone (GH)-secreting pituitary tumors convert the gene for the alpha polypeptide chain (alpha s) of Gs into a putative oncogene, termed gsp. These mutations, which activate alpha s by inhibiting its guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase) activity, are found in codons for either of two amino acids, each of which is completely conserved in all known G protein alpha chains. The likelihood that similar mutations would activate other G proteins prompted a survey of human tumors for mutations that replace either of these two amino acids in other G protein alpha chain genes. The first gene so far tested, which encodes the alpha chain of Gi2, showed mutations that replaced arginine-179 with either cysteine or histidine in 3 of 11 tumors of the adrenal cortex and 3 of 10 endocrine tumors of the ovary. The mutant alpha i2 gene is a putative oncogene, referred to as gip2. In addition, gsp mutations were found in 18 of 42 GH-secreting pituitary tumors and in an autonomously functioning thyroid adenoma. These findings suggest that human tumors may harbor oncogenic mutations in various G protein alpha chain genes.

An immunoadsorbent specific for the carboxy-terminal sequence -GAPER, which comprises residues 502-506 of the alpha-polypeptide of ovine sodium and potassium ion activated adenosinetriphosphatase [(Na+ + K+)-ATPase], was used to isolate the products of the reaction between the lysine immediately preceding this sequence in the intact protein and either [3H]acetic anhydride or fluorescein 5'-isothiocyanate. Changes in the apparent nucleophilicity of this lysine, Lys501, were observed with both reagents when ATP was bound by the intact, native enzyme poised in the E1 conformation or when the structure of the enzyme was changed from the E1 conformation into the E2-P conformation. With both reagents, a decrease of more than 4-fold in the yield of incorporation occurred during the former change, but a decrease of only 2-fold occurred during the latter. Because a much larger decrease occurred when ATP was bound in the absence of a conformational change than occurred when a major conformational change took place in the absence of the occupation of the active site, these changes in the incorporation of [3H]acetyl suggest that Lys501 from the alpha polypeptide is directly involved in binding ATP within the active site of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase. The immunochemical reactions between the specific polyclonal antibodies raised against the sequence-GAPER and denatured or enzymically active (Na+ + K+)-ATPase were also investigated. Western blots and the inhibition of enzymic activity caused by the antibody have shown that it can bind to both the denatured and the native form of the alpha-polypeptide, respectively.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Determinations of reaction stoichiometry demonstrate that the covalent incorporation of one molecule of 5'-isothiocyanatofluorescein can inactivate one molecule of sodium and potassium ion activated adenosinetriphosphatase in agreement with earlier determination of this stoichiometry. Several different modified peptides are produced, however, when the modified enzyme is digested with trypsin. One of these peptides has been identified as HLLVMK (thioureidylfluorescein)GAPER by use of a specific immunoadsorbent. The modified lysine is lysine 501 in the amino acid sequence of the alpha polypeptide of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase. This peptide has been previously isolated from such digests [Farley, R. A., Tran, C. M., Carilli, C. T., Hawke, D., & Shively, J. E. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 9532-9535]. The other specifically modified peptides have been purified and identified by amino acid sequencing. Their sequences identify lysine 480 and lysine 766 from the alpha polypeptide as amino acids modified by 5'-isothiocyanatofluorescein in reactions sensitive to the addition of ATP and responsible for inactivation of the enzyme.

The Na+/K+-ATPase purified from lamb kidney contains a gamma polypeptide fraction which is a collection of fragments derived from the alpha and beta polypeptides of the enzyme. This fraction has the solubility characteristics of a proteolipid and was isolated either by high performance liquid chromatography (size exclusion chromatography) in 1% sodium dodecyl sulfate or by sequential organic extraction of purified lamb kidney Na+/K+-ATPase. Formation of gamma polypeptide(s) from detergent solubilized holoenzyme was accelerated by sulfhydryl containing reagents and was unaffected by addition of inhibitors of proteolytic enzymes. Treatment of the holoenzyme with the photoaffinity reagent N-(2-nitro-4-azidophenyl)[3H]ouabain ([3H]NAP-ouabain) labeled the alpha polypeptide and the gamma polypeptide fraction but not the beta polypeptide. Amino acid sequence analysis of one gamma polypeptide preparation revealed homology of one component of this fraction with the N-terminus of the beta subunit of the Na+/K+-ATPase. Amino acid analysis of two preparations of proteolipid showed similar amino acid compositions with a peptide derived from the alpha subunit. The insolubility and complexity of the gamma polypeptide(s)/proteolipid fraction appears to preclude a conclusive sequence analysis of all components of this fraction.

Sodium ion and potassium ion activated adenosinetriphosphatase, isolated from canine kidney, was reacted with N-[3H]ethylmaleimide while it was poised in three different conformations, ostensibly E2-P, E2, and E1, respectively. These assignments were made from a consideration of the particular concentrations of ligands in the respective alkylation mixtures. After a 30-min reaction, the remaining enzymatic activity was found to vary among these three different samples from 90 to 30% of that of unalkylated controls. In all cases, the alpha polypeptide was purified and subjected to digestion with cyanogen bromide, and in each digest the same two distinct radioactive peptides were identified and purified by gel filtration on a column of Sephadex LH-60. The incorporation of N-[3H]ethylmaleimide into one of these two peptides correlated closely with enzymatic inactivation, while the incorporation into the other was most extensive when the portion of the active site to which ATP binds was unoccupied. Alkylation of the residue within the latter peptide, however, does not result in inactivation of the enzyme. Both peptides were further purified by high-pressure liquid chromatography, and their amino-terminal sequences were determined by manual dansyl Edman or solid-phase techniques. The peptide containing the sulfhydryl protected by ATP has, as its amino terminus, the lysine that reacts exclusively with fluoresceinyl 5'-isothiocyanate [Farley, R. A., Tran, C. M., Carilli, C. T., Hawke, D., & Shively, J. E. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 9532-9535].

The subunit locations of each of the three nucleotide binding sites of soluble chloroplast coupling factor 1 have been studied with the photoaffinity label 3'-O-(4-benzoyl)benzoyl-ATP. This derivative is an effective inhibitor of ATPase activity. Photolysis of the radioactive label when bound to each of the three nucleotide sites on the coupling factor has been examined. For the nucleotide site that normally binds ADP very tightly, NaDodSO4/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis after photolysis indicates that primarily the beta polypeptide chain is appreciably labeled (86%), although some labeling of the alpha polypeptide chain is found (14%). For the site that binds MgATP tightly, 97% of the radioactivity is found on the beta polypeptide chain. The alpha and beta polypeptide chains are labeled in approximately equal amounts when photolysis is carried out with the nucleotide analog bound to the third site.

Five long, membrane-spanning tryptic peptides from the alpha polypeptide of sodium and potassium ion activated adenosinetriphosphatase [(Na+ + K+)-ATPase] have been purified. (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, isolated from canine kidney, was exposed to ultraviolet light in the presence of a high concentration of 1-tritiospiro[adamantane-4,3'-diazirine], a carbene precursor that partitions into the bilayer of the membrane. The alpha polypeptide, modified with 1.2 mol of [3H]adamantylidene (mol of polypeptide)-1, was isolated and digested with trypsin. Digestion with trypsin ensures that membrane-spanning sequences remain intact during the digestion, since lysine and arginine, being extremely hydrophilic, rarely appear in the membrane-embedded regions of membrane proteins. This digestion produced radioactive tryptic peptides greater than 25 residues in length. The tryptic digest of the labeled alpha polypeptide was chromatographed on Sephadex LH-60 in ethanol-formic acid, 4:1. The majority of the radioactivity (87%) eluted with distribution coefficients corresponding to peptides longer than melittin (26 residues), whereas 73% of the protein traveled with distribution coefficients corresponding to peptides less than 30 residues in length. Five radioactive peptides were further purified by high-pressure liquid chromatography, and each peptide displayed a unique, hydrophobic amino-terminal sequence. No other candidates could be found when a search for additional membrane-spanning peptides was conducted. Gel filtration of the tryptic peptides from the alpha polypeptide of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase labeled with 5-[125I]iodo-1-naphthyl azide, a lipophilic nitrene precursor, produced no additional radioactive components. Amino-terminal sequences and amino acid compositions of the five purified peptides are presented.

Because of the conflicting conclusions that have been reached regarding the location of the two putative membrane-spanning segments from cysteine 911 through isoleucine 929 and from isoleucine 946 through cysteine 964 in the alpha subunit of native ovine Na+/K(+)-transporting ATPase, the disposition of lysine 943 with respect to the plane of the lipid bilayer was investigated. Sealed, right-side-out vesicles were modified with pyridoxal phosphate and Na[3H]BH4 in the presence and absence of saponin, a reagent that creates holes in the membranes. Modified alpha polypeptide was isolated, and digested with trypsin and chymotrypsin to release the desired peptides, QQGMK and QQGMK([3H]pyr)NK (where [3H]pyr designates the modification on lysine 943). These peptides, after cyclization of their amino-terminal glutamines, were isolated with an immunoadsorbent specific for the amino-terminal sequence pyroglutamyl-QGM-followed by high-pressure liquid chromatography on a C-18 reverse phase column. Comparisons were made of the extent of incorporation of radioactivity into lysine 943 between sealed vesicles and sealed vesicles pretreated with saponin. An increase in incorporation into lysine 943 of 5-fold to 18-fold was seen in vesicles pretreated with saponin prior to the modification with pyridoxal phosphate. This increase in incorporation is consistent with a cytoplasmic location for lysine 943. This conclusion places the residues on the carboxy-terminal side of the putative membrane-spanning segment from cysteine 911 through isoleucine 929 and the amino-terminal side of the putative membrane-spanning segment from isoleucine 946 through cysteine 964 in the ovine alpha subunit on the cytoplasmic side of the membrane.

Bacteriophage P4 DNA replication depends on the product of the alpha gene, which has origin recognition ability, DNA helicase activity, and DNA primase activity. One temperature-sensitive and four amber mutations that eliminate DNA replication in vivo were sequenced and located in the alpha gene. Sequence analysis of the entire gene predicted a domain structure for the alpha polypeptide chain (777 amino acid residues, M(r) 84,900), with the N terminus providing the catalytic activity for the primase and the middle part providing that for the helicase/nucleoside triphosphatase. This model was confirmed experimentally in vivo and in vitro. In addition, the ori DNA recognition ability was found to be associated with the C-terminal third of the alpha polypeptide chain. The type A nucleotide-binding site is required for P4 replication in vivo, as shown for alpha mutations at G-506 and K-507. In the absence of an active DnaG protein, the primase function is also essential for P4 replication. Primase-null and helicase-null mutants retain the two remaining activities functionally in vitro and in vivo. The latter was demonstrated by trans complementation studies, indicating the assembly of active P4 replisomes by a primase-null and a helicase-null mutant.
