Free-flow electrophoresis was used to subfractionate membrane vesicles from calf thymocyte plasma membranes. The fractionation resulted in a separation of vesicle populations bearing four different enzymes: alkaline nitrophenyl-phosphatase (orthophosphoric-monoester phosphohydrolase (alkalin optimum) EC 3.1.3.1), gamma-glutamyltransferase (EC 2.3.2.2), (Mg2+ + Na+ + K+)-ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) and acyl-CoA:lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase (acyl-CoA:1-acylglycero-3-phosphocholine-O-acyltransferase, EC 2.3.1.23). The specific content of cholesterol and total phospholipid coincided with the distribution of membrane-bound protein. However, vesicles migrating towards the cathode had a higher molar ratio of cholesterol to phospholipid (0.75) compared to those migrating to the anode (0.55). Sodium dodecyl sulphate-gel electrophoresis of pooled vesicle fractions also demonstrates distinct differences in their protein pattern. Electron-micrographic thin sections show that the vesicle populations have a similar morphology and size distribution. These results are discussed in terms of heterogeneity of the original thymocytes, contamination with intracellular membranes and a heterogeneous structure of the plasma membrane.

The effect of inhibitors and uncouplers on the osmotic shock-sensitive transport systems for glutamine and galactose (by the beta-methyl galactoside permease) was compared to their effect on the osmotic shock-resistant proline and galactose permease systems in cytochrome-deficient cells of Salmonella typhimurium SASY28. Both osmotic shock-sensitive and -resistant systems were sensitive to uncouplers and to inhibitors of the membrane-bound Ca2+, Mg2+-activated adenosine triphosphatase. This suggests that uptake by both types of systems is energized in these cells by an electrochemical gradient of protons formed by ATP hydrolysis through the ATPase.

Kinetic properties of guanylate cyclase present in the washed particles, plasma membranes, and the soluble cytoplasm of heart and skeletal muscle are described; properties of the enzyme solubilized by Triton X-100 treatment of the particles or membrane fractions are also reported. It is apparent from the data that the membrane-bound guanylate cyclase in the cell may be regulated by acetylcholine, may exist as a metallo-protein with bound Mn2+ (essential for activity), and that Mg2+ regulates, whereas Ca2+ and nucleotides (especially ATP) modulate, guanylate cyclase activity. The findings also suggest that guanylate cyclase, similar to adenylate cyclase and (Na+, K+)-ATPase, is mainly located in the plasma membranes of heart and skeletal muscle.

We have compared the adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity of mitochondria prepared from wild-type Neurospora crassa and from poky, a maternally inherited mutant known to possess defective mitochondrial ribosomes and reduced amounts of cytochromes aa3 and b. poky contains two distinct forms of mitochondrial ATPase. The first is normal in its Km for ATP, specificity for nucleotides and divalent cations, pH optimum, cold stability, and sensitivity to inhibitors (oligomycin, N,N-dicyclohexyl carbodiimide, and adenylyl imidodiphosphate). The fact that membrane-bound, cold-stable, oligomycin-sensitive ATPase activity is present in poky (with an activity of 1.93 +/- 0.03 mumol/min-mg of protein compared with 1.33 +/- 0.07 mumol/min-mg of protein in the wild-type strain) and also in chloramphenicol-grown wild-type cells suggests that products of mitochondrial protein synthesis play only a limited role in the attachment of the mitochondrial ATPase to the membrane in Neurospora. poky also contains a second form of mitochondrial ATPase, which has an activity of 1.5 +/- 0.2 mumol/min-mg of protein, is oligomycin sensitive but cold labile, and presumably is attached less firmly to the mitochondrial membrane. The two forms, added together, represent a substantial overproduction of mitochondrial ATPase by poky.

ATP-driven transport and accumulation of epinephrine in chromaffin granule membrane vesicles isolated from bovine adrenal medulla is inhibited by the proton ionophores carbonylcyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone and nigericin, but not by valinomycin. Moreover, an artificially imposed pH gradient (interior acid) is able to drive this reserpine-sensitive transport system in the absence of ATP. Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, an inactivator of the chromaffin granule membrane-bound ATPase, completely inhibits ATP-dependent epinephrine accumulation, but has much less effect when an imposed pH gradient is the driving force for epinephrine transport. The findings provide a strong indication that a pH gradient (interior acid) is the immediate driving force for epinephrine uptake in these storage granules and suggest that ATP-driven epinephrine transport is the result of two processes: (i) generation of a proton electrochemical gradient (interior acid and positive) by the membrane-bound, proton-translocating ATPase; and (ii) pH gradient-driven accumulation of the catecholamine.

The membrane-bound adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity of Acholeplasma laidlawii B differs in many respects from the common (Mg2+, Ca2+)-ATPase activity of higher bacteria, most notably in that it is specifically activated by Mg2+ and strongly and specifically stimulated by Na+ (or Li+). Various inhibitors diminish the ATPase activity with a concentration dependence which suggests that a single enzyme species is responsible for all of the observed ATP hydrolytic activity (both basal and Na+ stimulated). The Km for ATP is influenced by temperature but not by membrane lipid fatty acid composition. Vmax is influenced by both of these factors, showing a break in Arrhenius plots which falls below the lipid phase transition midpoint but well above the lower boundary when a phase transition occurs within the temperature range studied. The apparent energy of activation for Vmax is strongly influenced by lipid fatty acid composition both above and below the break. When whole cells of A. laidlawii B are incubated in KCl or NaCl buffers, they rapidly swell and lyse if deprived of an energy source or treated with ATPase inhibitors at concentrations which significantly inhibit enzyme activity in isolated membranes, whereas in sucrose or MgSO4 buffers of equal osmolarity, the cells are stable under these conditions. These results suggest that the membrane ATPase of A. laidlawii B is intimately associated with the membrane lipids and that it functions as a monovalent cation pump which regulates intracellular osmolarity as the (Na+, K+)-ATPase does in eucaryotes.

A membrane-bound ATPase detected in extracts of anaerobically grown Staphylococcus epidermidis was inhibited by a variety of compounds which inhibit ATPases in other organisms. Serine and 2-aminoisobutyric acid (AIB) were shown to enter the organism via the same transport system. The transport of AIB, the membrane potential and the transmembrane pH gradient were partially or completely abolished by the same inhibitors and also by uncoupling agents and lipid-soluble ions. It is proposed therefore that this ATPase generates and maintains an electrochemical gradient of protons across the cytoplasmic membrane of S. epidermidis capable of driving AIB uptake. Studies of AIB-induced proton movements suggested that AIB enters via a proton symport mechanism.

Current information is reviewed on the mechanism of secretion in small intestine, including how it is altered by cyclic 3',5'-adenosine monophosphate and on the structures and properties of cholera and both heat-labile and heat-stable Escherichia coli enterotoxins. Two separate active ion transport processes are altered by cyclic 3',5'-adenosine monophosphate: 1) coupled absorption of NaCl is inhibited in villus cells and 2) active anion secretion is stimulated, probably in crypt cells. Cholera and heat-labile E. coli toxins exert their secretory effect by stimulating intestinal mucosal adenylate cyclase. This stimulation results from the A1 subunit catalyzed transfer of adenosine diphosphate ribose from NAD to a membrane-bound guanosine triphosphatase, thereby inhibiting the enzyme, which normally represses adenylate cyclase. Heat-stable E. coli enterotoxin stimulates intestinal mucosal guanylate cyclase, which appears to be the basis for its enterotoxicity.

1. pH and potential gradients are generated across the membranes of chromaffin granule 'ghost' by incubating them with MgATP: the inside of the 'ghosts' is positive and acid with respect to the incubation medium. 2. The pH gradient is partially dissipated by inclusion of a substrate for the catecholamine pump, or a mitochondrial uncoupling agent, but is enhanced by reserpine. 3. An imposed pH gradient leads to amine uptake by the 'ghosts': a potential gradient leads to ATP uptake. Studies with inhibitors confirm that amine accumulation by chromaffin granules is dependent on the former, and that ATP uptake results from ATPase-induced potential difference generation. 4. ATP has two known roles in chromaffin granule structure: the first is as a substrate for a membrane-bound proton-translocating ATPase; the second is as a component of the intragranular catecholamine storage complex.

The membrane-bound (Na+ + K+)-activated ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) system was treated with the nonionic detergent octaethylene-glycoldodecyl ether, yielding a transparent supernatant after centrifugation. The supernatant was highly active with both ATPase and p-nitrophenylphosphatase, with initial specific activities of 2300 mumol Pi released . mg-1 protein. h-1 and 350 mumol p-nitrophenol released.mg-1 protein.h-1, respectively. The supernatant was purified to 95--100%, with respect to the 96 000 dalton and the 56 000 dalton peptides. The solubilized enzyme was gel filtered in Sepharose 4B-Cl and displayed 2 peaks, both with catalytic activity. The low molecular weight particles eluted at Kav = 0.54, corresponding to a molecular weight of approximately 500 000 daltons and the particles had a specific activity of 2100 mumol Pi.mg-1 protein.h-1. Both peaks contained phospholipid with 60 mol phospholipid bound per 300 000 g protein. The low molecular weight particles had a molecular weight of 276 000 as determined by sedimentation equilibrium analysis.
