The kinetics of reversible inactivation of chloroplast CF1-ATPase by Mg2+ and ADP was studied. The rate of inactivation obeys the first-order equation and is independent of ADP concentration. An analysis of the dependence of the inactivation rate on Mg2+ concentration demonstrated that the limiting step of inactivation is other than Mg2+ binding, i.e. the subsequent steps which include, in all probability, the conformational changes of the enzyme. The original Mg2+-dependent activity of CF1-ATPase is close to that observed under steady-state conditions in the presence of sulphate and methanol and exceeds the Ca2+-dependent activity approximately 6-fold. Preincubation of CF1-ATPase with Mg2+ results in inhibition of the original activity of the enzyme. This effect is not removed by addition of the ATP-regenerating system (pyruvate kinase + phosphoenol pyruvate) to the preincubation medium but is diminished by sulphite and the non-hydrolyzed analog of ATP--beta, gamma-methyladenosine-5-triphosphate. After addition of AMPPCP to the reaction mixture the initial reaction rate is decreased, while the steady-state rate is increased. It may be concluded that the Mg2+-dependent inactivation of CF1-ATPase is induced by the tightly bound ADP. The latter can be replaced by ATP, which in contrast to ADP does not form an inactive complex with the enzyme. A comparison of experimental results with literature data suggests that the mechanism of "alternating sites" proposed by Boyer et al. for ATP hydrolysis by soluble CF1-ATPase is not realized under the given experimental conditions.

Energized submitochondrial particles were subjected to high or low [3H]ATP/[3H]ADP ratios, maintained during steady state by a pyruvate kinase or hexokinase regenerating system, respectively. Under both steady state conditions, about 1.4 mol [3H]nucleotide/mol ATPase was retained but considerably more [3H]ATP was retained with the high [3H]ATP/[3H]ADP ratio. The ATPase activity and the oxygen exchange of these differentially labeled SMP were the same, suggesting a lack of control function of non-catalytic tightly bound nucleotides.

Several seemingly unrelated procedures used to elicit the latent ATPase activity of soluble spinach coupling factor 1 can be correlated to the release of tightly-bound ADP from the uncoupled enzyme. This ADP release is further enhanced by the presence of medium nucleotides, especially substrate ATP, and may or may not involve release from the catalytic site itself. Similarly, the light/dithiothreitol activation of membrane-bound CF1 ATPase is reported to be accompanied by energy-dependent ADP dissociation. Further indication that ADP release is involved in the ATPase activation mechanism is the observation that a pyruvate kinase phosphoenolpyruvate trap for ADP released during light/dithiothreitol treatment greatly retards the decay of membrane-bound ATPase activity that occurs in the dark, presumably by preventing reassociation of ADP. The time course of CF1 reactivation by light, after light/dithiothreitol activation followed by dark decay, allows a distinction to be made between the apparently rate-limiting dithiol modification and the more rapid dissociation of tightly bound ADP.

In isolated and purified cardiac myofibrillar and sarcolemmal preparations, the route of movement of ADP produced in the Mg2+-ATPase reactions was studied by investigating the efficiency of competition between the endogenous creatine kinase and exogenous pyruvate kinase reactions. In the homogeneous control system composed of hexokinase and glucose as ATPase, soluble creatine kinase rapidly rephosphorylated ADP produced in the presence of 1 mM ATP, but the addition of pyruvate kinase in an increasing amount inhibited the reaction of creatine release from phosphocreatine and symmetrically increased the rate of pyruvate production from phosphoenol pyruvate. At a pyruvate-kinase/creatine-kinase activity ratio (PK/CK) of 50, all ADP was used by the pyruvate kinase. In myofibrillar and sarcolemmal preparations containing particulate creatine kinase, the creatine kinase reaction was much less efficiently suppressed by pyruvate kinase, and at PK/CK = 50 half-maximal release of creatine was still observed. The rate of immediate myofibrillar MgADP rephosphorylation in the endogenous creatine-kinase reaction was observed to be governed by the concentration of phosphocreatine in accordance with the kinetics of this enzyme. The physiological significance of these findings is discussed.

Damage to the plasma membrane of rabbit epididymal spermatozoa during spontaneous lipid peroxidation was examined by means of trypan blue uptake and expression of activity of the intracellular enzymes, lactate dehydrogenase and pyruvate kinase. Both the dye uptake and the expression of enzyme activity probe cell damage from lipid peroxidation as loss of integrity of the plasma membrane. A linear correlation was obtained between trypan blue staining of the cells and malondialdehyde production, a quantifiable measure of the extent of lipid peroxidation. At the point of trypan blue staining of all cells, 0.5 nmol malondialdehyde/10(8) cells was produced. This is the same amount produced at the point of complete loss of motility and superoxide dismutase activity. We have defined this as the "lipoperoxidative lethal end point." Expression of lactate dehydrogenase and pyruvate kinase activities increased with time of aerobic incubation. In the high Na+ medium, NTP, in which lipid peroxidation is slow, there is a linear correlation between increase in expressed enzyme activities and malondialdehyde production. But in the high K+ medium, KTP, in which lipid peroxidation is rapid, there is an initial rapid rise in expressed enzyme activity over 3 h, followed by a slower increase. Activities of rabbit sperm lactate dehydrogenase, pyruvate kinase, and flagellar ATPase were unaffected by aerobic incubations for up to 48 h, double the incubation period used for the assay of enzymatic activities for the first two. The activity of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase decreased during aerobic incubation, the time course matching the loss of motility. The subcellular distribution of lactate dehydrogenase in rabbit spermatozoa was determined: 4% in the mitochondrial matrix, 10% in the plasma membrane and 85% in the cytosolic compartment.

Membrane vesicles from Salmonella typhimurium induced for phosphoglycerate transport, were loaded with pyruvate kinase and ADP by lysing spheroplasts under appropriate conditions. Vesicles so prepared catalyze active transport of proline and serine in the presence of phosphoenolpyruvate; this activity is abolished by the protonophore carbonyl cyanide-m-chlorophenylhydrazone and by the H+-ATPase inhibitor N,N' dicyclohexylcarbodiimide but not by anoxia or cyanide. In contrast, D-lactate-driven active transport is abolished by the hydrazone and by anoxia or cyanide but not by the carbodiimide. Moreover, phosphoenolpyruvate does not drive transport effectively in vesicles that lack the phosphoglycerate transport system. The results are consistent with an overall mechanism in which phosphoenolpyruvate gains access to the interior of the vesicles by means of the phosphoglycerate transporter and is then acted on by pyruvate kinase to phosphorylate ADP. ATP formed inside of the vesicles is then hydrolyzed by the H+-ATPase, leading to the generation of a proton electrochemical gradient that drives H+/solute symport. By using pBR322 as vector and Escherichia coli as host, a fragment of S. typhimurium DNA coding for the phosphoglycerate transport system has been cloned. E. coli membrane vesicles containing the phosphoglycerate transport system also catalyze transport in the presence of phosphoenolpyruvate when they are loaded with pyruvate kinase and ADP.

It has previously been shown that there are two sites for divalent metals at the active site of kidney (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, one bound directly to the enzyme and one coordinated to the ATP substrate [Grisham, C. (1981) J. Inorg. Biochem. 14, 45; O'Connor, S., & Grisham, C. (1980) FEBS Lett. 118, 303]. The conformation of the metal-nucleotide complex has been studied by using beta, gamma-bidentate Co-(NH3)4ATP, a substitution-inert analogue of MgATP. Kinetic studies show that Co(NH3)4ATP is a competitive inhibitor with respect to MnATP for the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase. The Ki values under both high- and low-affinity conditions (Ki = 10 microM and Ki = 1.6 mM, respectively) are similar to the Km values for MnATP under the same conditions (2.88 microM and 0.902 mM). From the paramagnetic effect of Mn2+ bound to the ATPase on the longitudinal relaxation rates of the phosphorus nuclei of Co(NH3)4ATP at the substrate site (at 40.5 and 145.75 MHz), Mn-P distances to all three phosphates are determined. The distances are consistent with the formation of a second sphere coordination complex on the enzyme between Mn2+ and the phosphates of Co(NH3)4ATP. In this respect, kidney (Na+ + K+)-ATPase appears to be similar to pyruvate kinase [Sloan, D., & Mildvan, A. (1976) J. Biol. Chem. 251, 2412] and phosphoribosylpyrophosphate synthetase [Granot, J., Gibson, K., Switzer, R., & Mildvan, A. (1980) J. Biol. Chem. 255, 10931]. Roles for both of the active site divalent cations are discussed.

Altered erythrocyte sodium potassium (Na,K)-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity has been cited as having pathophysiologic significance in morbidly obese man. Previous studies have failed to consider obese patients after weight loss and, therefore, did not clarify the role of ATPase deficiency as a cause or effect of the obese state. To define more completely the possible alteration of cellular thermogenesis in obesity, a study was made of three groups of people: (1) normal weight controls; (2) morbidly obese; and (3) formerly morbidly obese patients who had lost over 100 pounds after gastric bypass surgery. Erythrocyte ATPase activity was determined by use of an assay that coupled ATPase activity with NADH oxidation in the presence of excess pyruvate kinase, lactic dehydrogenase, and phosphoenolpyruvate. This coupled assay produced a continuous slope so that activity could be calculated from the initial, maximal, linear portion of the decay trace. Results did not demonstrate any statistically significant differences in Na,K-ATPase activity between groups by analysis of variance. A nonsignificant correlation of 0.086 was seen between obesity index and Na,K-ATPase activity. It is concluded that (1) erythrocyte Na,K-ATPase activity is similar in both normal and obese individuals, (2) erythrocyte Na,K-ATPase does not change with weight loss, and (3) therefore, disordered erythrocyte thermogenesis does not have a role in the development or maintenance of obesity.

Conditions are described for the preparation of permeabilized cells of Candida albicans. This method has been used for the in situ assay of enzymes in both yeast cells and germ-tube forming cells. A mixture of toluene/ethanol/Triton X-100 (1:4:0.2, by vol.) at 15% (v/v) and 8% (v/v) was optimal for the in situ assay of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase in yeast and germ-tube forming cells, respectively. The concentration of toluene/ethanol/Triton X-100 required for optimal in situ activity of other enzymes was influenced by the cellular location of the enzyme, growth phase and morphology. The membrane-bound enzymes (chitin synthase, glucan synthase, ATPase), cytosolic enzymes (glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, isocitrate dehydrogenase, pyruvate kinase, phosphofructokinase, alkaline phosphatase, glucosamine-6-phosphate deaminase and N-acetylglucosamine kinase) and wall enzymes (beta-glucosidase and acid phosphatase) were measured and compared to the activity obtained in cell extracts. The pattern of enzyme induction and the properties of the allosteric enzymes phosphofructokinase and pyruvate kinase were measured in situ. Pyruvate kinase in situ was homotropic for phosphoenolpyruvate with a Hill coefficient of 1.9 and a S0.5 of 0.6 mM, whereas in cell extracts, it had a Hill coefficient of 1.9 and a S0.5 of 1.0 mM. The Km for ATP was 1.6 mM in cell extracts and 1.8 mM in permeabilized cells. In situ phosphofructokinase was homotropic for fructose 6-phosphate (S0.5 of 2.3 mM, Hill coefficient of 4.0). The kinetic properties of pyruvate kinase and phosphofructokinase measured in situ or in vitro were similar for both yeast cells and germ-tube forming cells.

Rabbit sperm pyruvate kinase remains bound to the cell structure of hypotonically treated mature rabbit epididymal spermatozoa (HTRES). It displays kinetic behavior very similar to that of rabbit muscle pyruvate kinase with regard to KM values for substrates, activation by monovalent and divalent cations, inhibition by phenylalanine which is reversed by alanine, and lack of activation by fructose-1,6-biphosphate. The flagellar ATPase also remains bound to the cell structure of HTRES, whose motility may be reactivated by a source of ATP. It requires Mg+2 for activity; the KM for both ATP and MG+2 is 0.2 mM, implying that MgATP is the substrate. The ATPase activity is not inhibited by ouabain, oligomycin, or vanadate, which also do not affect reconstituted motility, and is not affected by cyclic AMP in the presence of an inhibitor of phosphodiesterase. The activities of pyruvate kinase and the flagellar ATPase in a given preparation of HTRES are comparable. Rabbit spermatozoa have a metabolic strategy which is very similar to muscle cells. This suggests that the major use of the sperm cell's metabolic machinery is maintenance of energy for the contractile work of motility and that only minor amounts of metabolic energy appear to be consumed in other reactions, including those involved in fertilization.
