The functional activity, adenine nucleotides, and creatine phosphate content of spontaneously beating isolated rabbit atria were measured prior to anoxia, after 1 hr anoxia, and at the end of 1 hr reoxygenation at pH 6.7 and 7.2 During anoxia at pH 7.2 there was 13.3% loss of adenine nucleotides pool, 35.2% loss of ATP, 36.2% increase in ADP, 200% increase in AMP, and a decrease to 8.8% of CP assayed to the beating atria in oxygen. At pH 6.7 there was almost the same decrease in CP, about 10% decrease in ATP, no change in total adenine nucleotides, no change in AMP and a higher increase in ADP (88.7%). The postanoxic recovery was much more complete when the pH was 6.7 during anoxia, and the first 40 min of reoxygenation. The extent of recovery of functional activity correlated well with the level of ATP in all cases not CP. Since the adenylate kinase and ATPase activity both decrease at acidic pH, their combined diminution would tend to preserve the adenine nucleotide pool and thus the better recovery at pH 6.7, because of a decrease in energy demand and unavailability of AMP for the degradation process. This study also supports the notion of compartmented adenine nucleotides connected by the creatine phosphate-creatine energy shuttle.

Single fibers of rabbit fast-twitch tibialis anterior (TA) muscles were analyzed after continuous low-frequency stimulation for up to 8 wk. After 2-5 wk, every fiber showed higher levels of citrate synthase, hexokinase, and 3-oxoacid CoA-transferase than any control fiber; in some cases these levels were 2-10 times higher (well above any found even in the control soleus, a slow-twitch muscle). Average levels of malate dehydrogenase and alanine transaminase also rose dramatically, but peak single fiber levels were not much above the highest in controls. These differential effects confirm at the single fiber level that chronic stimulation can alter mitochondrial composition. Lactate dehydrogenase, fructose-bisphosphatase, and adenylate kinase declined to levels far below those of any control TA fiber, and, in the case of fructose-bisphosphatase, to within the activity range of control soleus fibers. According to their staining reaction for myofibrillar ATPase, TA fibers were initially 23% type IIA, and 74% type IIB, but by 5 wk these had been converted to a mixture of type I, IIA, and IIC fibers. At 5 wk, levels of lactate dehydrogenase, adenylate kinase, and malate dehydrogenase were characteristic of their (new) ATPase type, but 3-oxoacid CoA transferase had increased to levels 6-15 times higher than in control fibers of the same type.

The onset of respiration in the cyanobacteria Anacystis nidulans and Nostoc sp. strain Mac upon a shift from dark anaerobic to aerobic conditions was accompanied by rapid energization of the adenylate pool (owing to the combined action of ATP synthase and adenylate kinase) and also the guanylate, uridylate, and cytidylate pools (owing to nucleoside diphosphate and nucleoside monophosphate kinases). Rates of the various transphosphorylation reactions were comparable to the rate of oxidative phosphorylation, thus explaining, in part, low approximately P/O ratios which incorporate adenylates only. The increase of ATP, GTP, UTP, and CTP levels (nanomoles per minute per milligram [dry weight]) in oxygen-pulsed cells of A. nidulans and Nostoc species was calculated to be, on average, 2.3, 1.05, 0.8, and 0.57, respectively. Together with aerobic steady-state pool sizes of 1.35, 0.57, 0.5, and 0.4 nmol/mg (dry weight) for these nucleotides, a fairly uniform turnover of 1.3 to 1.5 min-1 was derived. All types of nucleotides, therefore, may be conceived of as being in equilibrium with each other, reflecting the energetic homeostasis or energy buffering of the (respiring) cyanobacterial cell. For the calculation of net efficiencies of oxidative phosphorylation in terms of approximately P/O ratios, this energy buffering was taken into account. Moreover, in A. nidulans an additional 30% of the energy initially conserved in ATP by oxidative phosphorylation was immediately used up by a plasma membrane-bound reversible H+-ATPase for H+ extrusion. Consequently, by allowing for energy buffering and ATPase-linked H+ extrusion, maximum P/O ratios of 2.6 to 3.3 were calculated. By contrast, in Nostoc sp. all the H+ extrusion, appeared to be linked to a plasma membrane-bound respiratory chain, thus bypassing any ATP formation and leading to P/O ratios of only 1.3 to 1.5 despite the correction for energy buffering.

Nucleoside diphosphokinase (NDK) of human platelets has been purified by chromatography on Blue Sepharose CL-6B gel (purification factor of 950) and shown to be free of adenylate kinase, ATPase and adenylate cyclase. The molecular weight was 70,000 with subunits of 17,000. The pH optimum was 8.0 Km values for ATP and dTDP were determined in two ways using the pyruvate kinase-lactate dehydrogenase coupled enzyme assay. Values of 0.38 and 0.20 mM were obtained for ATP and 0.29 and 0.21 mM for dTDP. Km values for ADP (0.024 mM) and GTP (0.12 mM) were determined with the hexokinase-glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase coupled enzyme assay. These values are in agreement with those reported for NDK from other sources. Theophylline, which inhibits the NDK activity of intact platelets and platelet membrane preparations and inhibits the ADP-induced shape change of platelets, was shown to be a competitive inhibitor of both the free and phosphorylated forms of NDK with competitive inhibition constants (Kic) of 9.3 and 9.6 mM respectively. Papaverine, another cAMP phosphodiesterase inhibitor, which also inhibits the ADP-induced shape change of platelets, had no inhibitory effect on platelet NDK. It was concluded that the inhibitory effect of theophylline on the activity of the purified enzyme was due to the structural similarity between the methylxanthine and the adenine moiety of ADP.

Phosphorus 31 magnetic resonance spectroscopy (31P MRS) was used to study noninvasively the intracellular free Mg2+ concentration and cellular bioenergetic state of rat brain in vivo before and after fluid percussion-induced traumatic brain injury of graded severity. Brain injury was induced at four levels: low (1.0 +/- 0.5 atm); moderate (2.1 +/- 0.4 atm); high (3.9 +/- 0.9 atm); and severe (5.9 +/- 0.7 atm). Prior to injury, mean intracellular values for all groups (n = 24; mean +/- SE) were as follows: pH = 7.11 +/- 0.03; free [Mg2+] = 0.99 +/- 0.07 mM; cytosolic [ADP] = 25.2 +/- 0.8 nmol/g wet weight; cytosolic [AMP] = 0.29 +/- 0.02 nmol/g wet weight; cytosolic phosphorylation potential = 118.5 +/- 3.1 X 10(3) M-1; free energy of ATP hydrolysis = 62.11 +/- 0.04 kJ/mole; and energy charge = 0.99 +/- 0.01. Following every level of injury, there were decreases in intracellular free Mg2+ concentration, and alterations in the intracellular pH. These posttraumatic changes in Mg2+ and pH induced shifts in the equilibrium constants of the creatine kinase, adenylate kinase, and ATPase reactions, resulting in alterations in [ADP], [AMP], cytosolic phosphorylation potential, and free energy of hydrolysis, but not in the energy charge. The alterations in cytosolic phosphorylation potential following trauma were linearly correlated with the changes in intracellular free Mg2+ concentration. None of the individual bioenergetic parameters could be correlated with the severity of injury over the entire injury range; however, an association between cytosolic phosphorylation potential and reversibility of injury was apparent. These results suggest that reductions in cellular bioenergetic state following traumatic brain injury occur through a posttraumatic decrease in the cells' capacity for oxidative phosphorylation, which itself may be directly related to the intracellular free Mg2+ concentration.

During prolonged submaximal exercise, skeletal muscle must overcome the problem of continually renewing the local supply of ATP at the ATPase site of myosin. This problem is compounded by the fact that there is little free water in the cell to enable a rapid diffusion of the compound (ATP and ADP) involved. This appears to occur via the Cr-CrP shuttle whereby the ADP produced as a result of contraction is converted to ATP via the adenylate kinase reaction with the production of AMP. The ADP used to regenerate ATP by the adenylate kinase reaction is ultimately replenished from ATP generated by the metabolic pathways and transported through the cytosol via the CK located sequentially on the myofibrils, in the cytosol, and bound to the outer surface of the inner mitochondrial membrane. The increase in the mitochondrial protein concentration of skeletal muscle that occurs with endurance training has a direct effect on improving work capacity by providing a greater potential for the CrP shuttle, produced by a greater surface area, increasing the number of transport sites for the exchange of substrates and products between the cytosol and the mitochondrial matrix, exerting a tighter control over the adenine nucleotides as they turnover during contractile and metabolic activity, and providing for a tighter control over the Embden-Meyerhof pathway to prevent excessive lactate production. The effect of these changes is to produce a more effective use of fat and carbohydrate reserves.

Attempts to identify mechanisms by which calcium antagonists might influence intracellular metabolism have not yet yielded conclusive findings. In this study bepridil, verapamil, nifedipine, and nisoldipine were found to have no influence on the rate of rat heart myosin adenosine triphosphatase or the calcium dependence of myofibrillar adenosine triphosphatase. None of these calcium antagonists alters the rate of reaction of any of the adenine nucleotide catabolic or adenosine salvage enzymes, adenylate kinase, creatine kinase, adenosine kinase, adenosine deaminase, or 5' nucleotidase, in extracts of rat heart. All four compounds, however, reduced, apparently in a non-specific manner, the rate of uptake of adenosine by myocytes isolated from rat heart. It is concluded that calcium antagonists may, through intercalation with the sarcolemmal membrane, inhibit efflux of adenosine formed by catabolism of adenine nucleotides in ischaemic myocytes. This might offer therapeutic advantage since the intracellular concentration of adenosine would thereby be increased, allowing an increased rate of incorporation of adenosine into the adenosine triphosphate pool in reoxygenated myocardium.

During muscular fatigue two metabolites, hydrogen ions (H+) and inorganic phosphate (Pi), increase in concentration. The effect of increase in [H+] has been modeled mathematically for a system containing creatine kinase (EC 2.7.3.2), adenylate kinase (EC 2.7.4.3), and the appropriate concentrations of their substrates. Assuming that no other equilibrium reactions are involved, the result of acidification should be a useful increase in the ratio [ATP]/[ADP]. It is also shown by a reanalysis of earlier 31P NMR studies that the observed combination of increased [H+] and increased [Pi] leads to an increase in the monobasic phosphate concentration [Pi-] that is inversely proportional to the force of contraction. This suggests that Pi- may be a direct inhibitor of the actomyosin ATPase system.

The characteristics of ATP synthesis in cell envelope vesicles of Halobacterium halobium were further studied. The results confirmed the previous conclusion (Mukohata et al. (1986) J. Biochem. 99, 1-8) that the ATP synthase in this extremely halophilic archaebacterium can not be an ordinary type of F0F1-ATPase, which has been thought to be ubiquitous among all the aerobic organisms on our biosphere. The ATP synthesis was activated most in 1 M NaCl and/or KCl, and at 40 degrees C, and at 80 mM MgCl2 where F0F1-ATPase loses its activity completely. The synthesis was negligible at 10 degrees C, and at 5 mM MgCl2. The Km for ADP was about 0.3 mM in the presence of 20 mM Pi, 1 M NaCl, 80 mM MgCl2, and 10 mM PIPES at pH 6.8 and 20 degrees C. The ATP synthesis was not inhibited by NaN3 and quercetin (specific inhibitors for F0F1-ATPase) or vanadate (for E1E2-ATPase) or ouabain (for Na+,K+-ATPase) or P1,P5-di(adenosine-5')pentaphosphate (AP5A, for adenylate kinase). The ATP synthesis was not inhibited by modification (pretreatment) with NaN3 or 5'-p-fluorosulfonylbenzoyladenosine (FSBA). On the contrary, the ATP synthesis was rather non-specifically inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide (NEM), trinitrobenzenesulfonate (TNBS), phenylglyoxal, and pyridoxal phosphate. 7-Chloro-4-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazole (NBD-Cl) as well as N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD) was found to be a specific inhibitor at least partly, because the NBD-Cl inhibition was partly prevented by ADP added to the modification mixture.

Light-induced ATP synthesis was studied in intact cells and chromatophores of Erythrobacter sp. strain OCh114. ATP synthesis was measured by both the pH method and the luciferin-luciferase luminescence method. The rate of ATP synthesis was moderate (a typical value of 0.65 mol of ATP per mol of bacteriochlorophyll per min), and synthesis was inhibited by antimycin A. ATP was synthesized under illumination only under aerobic conditions and not under anaerobic conditions. This characteristic was similar to that of other light-induced energy transduction processes in this bacterial species, such as oxidation of reaction center, oxidation of cytochrome c551, and translocation of H+, which were not observed under anaerobic conditions. This phenomenon was reconciled with the fact that the Erythrobacter sp. could not grow anaerobically even in the light. The characteristics of oxidative phosphorylation and ATP hydrolysis were also investigated. The respiratory ratio of chromatophores was 2.3. Typical rates of oxidative phosphorylation by NADH and by succinate were 2.9 mol of ATP per mol of bacteriochlorophyll per min (P/O = 0.22) and 1.1 mol of ATP per mol of bacteriochlorophyll per min (P/O = 0.19), respectively. A typical rate of ATP hydrolysis was 0.25 mol of ATP per mol of bacteriochlorophyll per min in chromatophores. ATPase and adenylate kinase are also involved in the metabolism of adenine nucleotides in this bacterium.
