The phospholipid and fatty acid composition and role of phospholipids in enzyme and transport function of gastric (H+ + K+)-
ATPase
vesicles was studied using
phospholipase A2
(bee venom). The composition (%) was phosphatidyl-choline (PC) 33%; sphingomyelin (sph) 25%; phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) 22%; phosphatidylserine (PS) 11%; and phosphatidylinositol (PI) 8%. The fatty acid composition showed a high degree of unsaturation. In both fresh and lyophilized preparations, even with prolonged incubation, only 50% of phospholipids were hydrolyzed, but the amount of PE and PS disappearing was increased following lyophilization. There was a marked decrease in K+-
ATPase
activity (75%) but essentially no loss of the associated K+ p-nitrophenyl phosphatase was found.
ATPase
activity could be largely restored by various phospholipids (PE greater than PC greater than PS). There was also an increase in Mg2+-ATPase activity, partially reversed in fresh preparations by the addition of phospholipids (PE greater than PS greater than PC). Proton transport activity of the preparation was rapidly inhibited, initially due to a large increase in the HCl permeability of the preparation. Associated with these enzymatic and functional changes, the ATP-induced conformational changes, as indicated by circular dichroism spectra were inhibited.

1. When complete hydrolysis of glycerophosphlipids and sphingomyelin in the outer membrane leaflet is brought about by treatment of intact red blood cells with
phospholipase A2
and sphingomyelinase C, the
(Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase
activity is not affected. 2. Complete hydrolysis of sphingomyelin, by treatment of leaky ghosts with spingomyelinase C, does not lead to an inactivation of the
(Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase
. 3. Treatment of ghosts with
phospholipase A2
(from either procine pancreas of Naja naja venom), under conditions causing an essentially complete hydrolysis of the total glycerophospholipid fraction of the membrane, results in inactivation of the
(Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase
by some 80--85%. The residual activity is lost when the produced lyso-compounds (and fatty acids) are removed by subsequent treatment of the ghosts with bovine serum albumin. 4. The degree of inactivation of the
(Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase
, caused by treatment of ghosts with phospholipase C, is directly proportional to the percentage by which the glycerophospholipid fraction in the inner membrane layer is degraded. 5. After essentially complete inactivation of the
(Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase
by treatment of ghosts with phospholipase C from Bacillus cereus, the enzyme is reactivated by the addition of any of the glycerophospholipids, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine or lysophosphatidylcholine, but not by addition of sphingomyeline, free fatty acids or the detergent Triton X-100. 6. It is concluded that only the glycerophospholipids in the human erythrocyte membrane are involved in the maintenance of the
(Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase
activity, and in particular that fraction of these phospholipids located in the inner half of the membrane.

Treatment of red cell membranes with pure phospholipase C inactivates (Na+ + K+)-
ATPase
activity and Na+-dependent phosphorylation but increases K+-dependent phosphatase activity. When
phospholipase A2
replaces phospholipase C, all activities are lost. Activation of K+-dependent phosphatase by treatment with phospholipase C is caused by an increase in the maximum rate of hydrolysis of p-nitrophenylphosphate and in the maximum activating effect of K+, the apparent affinities for substrate and cofactors being little affected. After phospholipase C treatment K+-dependent phosphatase is no longer sensitive to ouabain but becomes more sensitive to N-ethylmaleimide. In treated membranes Na+ partially replaces K+ as an activator of the phosphatase. Although ATP still inhibits phosphatase activity, neither ATP, nor ATP+Na+ are able to modify the apparent affinity for K+ of K+-dependent phosphatase in these membranes.

1. For a period of 31 days male rats were given a liquid diet containing 36% of its energy as ethanol. Liver mitochondria from these animals demonstrated lowered respiratory control with succinate as substrate, a diminished energy-linked anilinonaphthalene-sulphonic acid fluorescence response, and lowered endogenous ATP concentrations. The phospholipid/protein ratio in mitochondria from these animals was unchanged; only minor alterations in the phospholipid fatty acid composition were observed. 2. In experiments where mitochondria were incubated at 18 degrees C in iso-osmotic sucrose (aging experiments), the above energy-linked properties were lost at an earlier time in organelles from ethanol-fed animals. Phospholipase A2 acitivty was depressed in mitochondria from control animals until respiratory control was lost and ATP was depleted. In contrast, no lag in the expression of phospholipase activity was observed in mitochondria from ethanol-fed rats. This loss of control of the phospholipase resulted in an earlier degradation of membrane phospholipids under the conditions of the aging experiments. 3. The
ATPase
(
adenosine triphosphatase
) activities, measured in freshly prepared tightly coupled mitochondria and in organelles uncoupled with carbonyl cyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone, were not significantly different in ethanol-fed and liquid-diet control animals. When the mitochondria were aged at 18 degrees C, the activity increased with time of incubation in organelles from both groups of animals. A lag was observed, however, as the
ATPase
activity increased in control preparations. This lag was not present as APTase activity increased in mitochondria from ethanol-fed animals. 4. The significantly lowered values observed for energy-linked functions with succinate as an energy source demonstrate that ethanol elicits an alteration in liver mitochondria that affects the site II-site III regions of the oxidative-phosphorylation system. The apparent lack of control of the
phospholipase A2
and
ATPase
activities in mitochondria from ethanol-fed animals suggests that the membrane microenvironment of these enzymes has been altered such that they can exert their catabolic effects more readily under conditions of mild perturbation. The fatty acid analyses demonstrate that the observed alterations both in the energy-linked functions and in control of the phospholipase and
ATPase
are not mediated through changes in the acyl chain composition of bulk-phase phospholipids.

We investigated the kinetics of mitochondrial ATPase in bovine heart mitochondria and submitochondrial particles upon treatment with
phospholipase A2
, or upon addition of n-butanol to perturb the lipid protein interactions. The changes observed are the following: (1) Lipid removal or perturbation with butanol is accompanied by loss of
ATPase
activity with decrease of both V and of the KM for ATP. (2) There are changes of activation energy of
ATPase
activity at temperatures above the discontinuity normally observed for membrane-bound enzymes in mitochondria. In particular, butanol abolishes the discontinuity, and induces a constant activation energy of about 32 kcal/mol in the range 8--37 degrees C. (3) Butanol modifies the pH dependence of
ATPase
shifting the pH optimum from around 10 to less alkaline values. The optimum for Mg2+ concentrations is increased by the solvent. (4) Treatment with
phospholipase A2
results in a removal of oligomycin-sensitive
ATPase
, whereas butanol addition prevents oligomycin inhibition of
ATPase
. (5) In beef heart mitochondria, a spin-labelled analog of the inhibitor, dicyclohexyl carbodiimide, did not show any change in environment upon butanol addition, unlike that found in mitochondria from Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Treatment of human red cell membranes with pure
phospholipase A2
results in a progressive inactivation of both Ca2+-dependent and (Ca2+ + K+)-dependent
ATPase
and phosphatase activities. When phospholipase C replaces
phospholipase A2
, Ca2+-dependent
ATPase
activity and Ca2+-dependent phosphorylation of red cell membranes are lost, while Ca2+-dependent phosphatase activity is enhanced and its apparent affinity for Ca2+ is increased about 20-fold. Activation of Ca2+-dependent phosphatase following phospholipase C treatment was not observed in sarcoplasmic reticulum preparation. Phospholipase C increases the sensitivity of the phosphatase to N-ethylmaleimide but has little effect on the kinetic parameters relating the phosphatase activity to substrate and cofactors, suggesting that no extensive structural disarrangement of the Ca2+-ATPase system has occurred after incubation with phospholipase C.

Inactivation of (Na+ + K+)-
ATPase
of Yoshida sarcoma cells and beef brain microsomes by
phospholipase A2
and a cytotoxin P6 from snake venom has been examined in relation to their activity to degrade phospholipids. Cytotoxin P6 which was most basic and devoid of phospholipase activity was most effective in inhibiting the (Na+ + K+)-
ATPase
of Yoshida sarcoma cells. Phospholipase A2 from Naja naja which was most active in degrading phospholipids was least effective in inhibiting (Na+ + K+)-
ATPase
in Yoshida sarcoma cells or in beef brain microsomes. Addition of trace amounts of cytotoxin P6 to the phospholipase considerably enhanced the inactivation of (Na+ + K+)-
ATPase
. The evidence suggests that the charge of the inhibitor protein and its specific structure play an important role in the inactivation of (Na+ + K+)-
ATPase
.

A procedure is described for the isolation of synaptic membrane fragments that retain such functionally important proteins as acetylcholine receptors, acetylcholinesterase, 3',5'-cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase, and (Na+ + K+)-
ATPase
. The method is based on the observation, made in brain slices, that junctional membranes are more resistant to
phospholipase A2
attack than mitochondrial or plasma membranes. Hydrolysis by
phospholipase A2
was controlled by addition of fatty acid-free bovine serum albumin. The membrane fraction obtained represents approximately a 15-fold enrichment of the postsynaptic marker proteins muscarinic and nicotinic acetylcholine receptor and 3',5'-cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase over an ordinary synaptic plasma membrane preparation, and is devoid of mitochondrial and microsomal contaminations. The membranes appear on the electron micrographs as rigid fragments (average length 2500-4000A), which do not form vesicles.

The role of lipid-protein interaction in the regulation of the brain Na-pump by different neurotropic agents (prostaglandin E2, middle molecules from blood plasma of uremic patients, neuropeptide galanin, the oligopeptide fraction from brain) was investigated. We established a definite correlation between the lipid status (the peroxidativity of the lipids, the phospholipids and cholesterol content) of the Na,K-
ATPase
enzyme preparation (plasma membrane fragments) and the influence of the neurotropic agents. Besides, after the treatment with delipidative agents (
phospholipase A2
, SDS) the inhibitory effects of these neurotropic agents, were diminished significantly. These facts do not contradict our previous suggestion that the lipid-protein interactions underlay the regulative action mechanism of the natural bioactive ligands.

A set of aligned homologous protein sequences is divided into two groups consisting of m and n most related sequences. The value of position variability for homologous protein sequences is defined as a number of failures to coincide in the intergroup comparison of all possible m*n pairs of amino acid residues in that position divided by m*n. The position variability value plotted versus the sequence position number with a window of 10 positions gives the intergroup local variability profile. Area S of the figure included between the local variability profile and the straight line corresponding to the mean local variability value is compared with the average area Sr for 1000 random homologous protein families. If S is greater than Sr by more than 2 standard deviation units sigma r, the local variability profile is assumed to contain peaks and hollows corresponding to significant variable and conservative regions of the sequences. The profile extrema containing the area surplus delta S = S-(Sr+ 2 sigma r) are cut off by two straight lines to locate significant regions. The difference (S-Sr) given in standard deviation units sigma r is believed to be the amino acid substitution overall irregularity along the homologous protein sequences OI = (S-Sr)/sigma r. The significant conservative and variable regions of six homologous sequence families (
phospholipase A2
, cytochromes b, alpha-subunits of Na,K-
ATPase
, L- and M-subunits of photosynthetic bacteria photoreaction centre and human rhodopsins) were identified. It was shown that for artificial homologous protein sequences derived by k-fold lengthening of natural protein sequences, the OI value rises as square root of k. To compare the degree of substitution irregularity in homologous protein sequence families of different lengths L the value of standard substitution overall irregularity for L = 250 is proposed.
