After 10 wash cycles, 0.8 u.e. of creatine kinase activity remained bound per mg of chicken pectoralis myofibrils which had been freed of soluble creatine kinase, mitochondria, and membranes. The bound creatine kinase is located at the M-band and contributes to the electron density of this sarcomeric structure (Wallimann, T., Pelloni, G.W., Turner, D.C., and Eppenberger, H. M. (1978) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 75, 4296-4300). By measuring the combined actin-activated Mg2+-ATPase and creatine kinase reactions of myofibrils by pH-stat, it was shown that the amount of M-line-bound creatine kinase activity was sufficient to rephosphorylate the ATP hydrolyzed in vitro by the actin-activated Mg2+-ATPase. The amount of M-line-bound creatine kinase and thus the ATP regeneration potential depended on the muscle type. It was higher in fast muscles and lower in slow muscles. Inhibition of myofibrillar creatine kinase or extraction of the M-line-bound enzyme abolished the ATP regeneration potential without affecting ATPase activity. Inhibitors of myokinase, mitochondrial ADP/ATP translocase, and respiration did not affect the ATP regeneration potential or the ATPase. M-line-bound creatine kinase, sufficient to support an ATP turnover rate of 6s-1 per myosin head, seems to have the capacity for the intramyofibrillar regeneration of most or all of the ATP hydrolyzed by the myofibrillar ATPase during muscle contraction. Thus, M-line-bound creatine kinase at the myofibrillar receiving end of the phosphorylcreatine shuttle is of physiological significance.

The reasons underlying reported discrepancies in the effects of ATP, ADP, adenosine 5'-[beta gamma-methylene]triphosphate, AMP + PPi, P-chloromercuribenzoate and F- on RNA efflux from isolated rat liver nuclei and on nuclear envelope nucleoside triphosphatase activity were investigated. The stimulatory effect of ADP was attributed to myokinase activity associated with the nuclei; this activity was eluted on repeated washing with nuclear incubation medium. In the absence of Ca2+ and Mn2+, ATP, adenosine 5'[beta gamma-methylene]triphosphate and AMP +PPi were found to promote release of both DNA and RNA. In the presence of 0.5 mM-Ca2+ and 9.3 mM-Mn2+, only ATP promoted RNA efflux to a significant extent. In the absence of spermidine, Ca2+ and Mn2+, nuclei released large quantities of DNA and RNA into the medium; this effect was promoted by p-chloromereuribenzoate. In the presence of the three cations, however, p-chloromercuribenzoate inhibited RNA efflux. F- caused a slight leakage of DNA from nuclei. The results are discussed in terms of models for the effects of ATP and analogues on RNA efflux and nuclear stability.

Dynein was obtained by high salt extraction of Tetrahymena cilia and purified by DEAE-Sephacel chromatography. This fraction consisted of a mixture of 30 S dynein (80%) and the 14 S ATPase (15%). The column purification effectively removed tubulin and adenylate kinase. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide electrophoresis indicated that the 30 S dynein was composed of a major heavy chain (approximately 400 kD, three copies), three intermediate chains (70, 85, and 100 kD), and a group of light chains (approximately 20 kD). The binding of the column-purified dynein to bovine brain microtubules was characterized as follows. (i) Titration of the dynein with microtubules showed a linear increase in turbidity up to an equivalence point of 2.7 mg of dynein/mg of tubulin with apparently tight binding; (ii) the addition of ATP caused the turbidity of the solution of decrease to a level equal to the sum of free dynein plus microtubules; (iii) transmission electron microscopy indicated that microtubules were decorated with dynein arms spaced at a 24-nm longitudinal repeat and that the dynein decoration was removed upon addition of ATP; (iv) cross-section images of microtubules that were saturated with dynein showed six to seven dynein arms around a microtubule consisting of 14 protofilaments, corresponding to a molar ratio of one dynein/six tubulin dimers; (v) the dynein arms were bound primarily by their broader end which corresponds to the end normally bound to the B-subfiber in vivo. Experiments with purified 30 and 14 S dyneins indicated that the dynein-microtubule binding activity and the ATP-induced dissociation were the properties of the 30 S dynein alone. These studies demonstrate that the 30 S dynein under our conditions (50 mM PIPES, pH 6.96, 4 mM MgSO4) interacts with bovine brain microtubules through the ATP-sensitive site of the dynein arm.

The behavior of several enzymes was studied during rat heart development (4 days before birth to adult stage). Hexokinase has its highest activity during the fetal period; it decreases at birth and remains with low activity in the adult. The alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase and alpha-glycerophosphate oxidase profiles are similar up to the 15th day of development. From there onwards, both profiles diverge, the cytoplasmic activity increasing 3-fold, while the mitochondrial activity remains unchanged. The developmental profiles of the malate dehydrogenases are almost parallel. The development of citrate synthase and succinate dehydrogenase results in a 2- to 4-fold increase in their activities. However, ATPase increases dramatically (20-fold) over the same period. With respect to the enzymes of the adenine nucleotide metabolism, adenylate kinase is fully expressed throughout all ages examined, showing no variation during development. AMP deaminase and creatine kinase increase during development, the cytoplasmic creatine kinase reaching a high level at birth whereas the increases of the mitochondrial enzymes take place gradually during development.

We studied the effects of running-training, heavy exercise and termination of training on the heart weight, the ratio heart to body weight and the cardiac muscle activities of actomyosin ATPase, citrate synthase, succinate dehydrogenase, cytochrome c oxidase, malate dehydrogenase, adenylate kinase and beta-glucuronidase with adult male NMRI-mice. Stable hypertrophy (6-7%), estimated by the ratio heart or ventricle weight to body weight, was achieved by 28 exercises and it was dependent on the running speed (20 vs. 25 m X min-1). The withdrawal of training for 5-61 days did not permanently decrease the heart weight or the heart to body weight ratio to the level of sedentary controls. The activity of enzymes of energy metabolism or actomyosin ATPase were not affected by training, heavy exercise or terminated training. beta-glucuronidase activity slightly (20-25%) increased in the trained animals and remained at a higher level during the period of terminated training. The results suggest that the capacity for aerobic metabolism of normal mice heart is sufficient to meet the enhanced demand for ATP imposed by running-training and that the heart enlargement occurs in equal proportions with the enzymatic potential of the cardiac tissue.

Isometric contraction and relaxation of glycerinated rabbit psoas muscle fibers containing native creatine kinase (CK) and ATPase activities were studied. Energy for contraction and relaxation was provided either by ADP + creatine phosphate (CP) or ATP alone, and the effectiveness of these additions on rate and maximum force of contraction and relaxation were compared. In the presence of 250 microM ADP, physiological concentration of CP (10 mM) produced faster and stronger contraction and faster and more complete relaxation than equimolar or even higher concentrations of ATP. When contraction was initiated by addition of ADP to fibers preincubated with 10 mM CP, the apparent Km for ADP was 1.18 +/- 0.24 mM. If the fibers were preincubated with ADP and contraction initiated by addition of 10 mM CP, the apparent Km for ADP was more than an order of magnitude smaller (76.0 +/- 4 microM). The observed Km for ADP for contraction was about half the Km for CP in solution (151.5 microM). The apparent Km for CP for rate of contraction was 2.67 +/- .046 mM independent of sequence of addition of ADP. Since these experiments were done in the presence of P1,P5-diadenosine 5'-pentaphosphate, a powerful inhibitor of adenylate kinase, the role of this enzyme in the process was not significant. These observations support the idea of compartmentation of myofibrillar CK in close function with myosin ATPase as part of the phosphoryl creatine energy shuttle.

We examined the effects of P1,P5-di(adenosine-5')pentaphosphate (Ap5A), a potent inhibitor of adenylate kinase, on fragmented sarcoplasmic reticulum (FSR) obtained from bullfrog skeletal muscle in view of the possible usefulness of the nucleotide in experiments with FSR to avoid complications due to contaminating adenylate kinase. Ap5A itself does not cause Ca uptake in the place of ATP. It inhibited adenylate kinase activity without affecting the Ca-ATPase or Ca uptake activity of FSR. The observed effect was a competitive inhibition of basic ATPase activity of the light fraction of FSR. Therefore, P1,P5-di(adenosine-5')pentaphosphate represents an extremely useful tool in experiments wth fragmented sarcoplasmic reticulum, such as studies of H+ movement accompanying Ca movement, ATP-ADP exchange reaction, and calorimetry of the Ca uptake process. A rather high concentration (50 muM or more) of Ap5A is required for complete inhibition of adenylate kinase. Further, we detected 1.3-2.8 nmol of (ATP + ADP), 2-4 nmol of Pi, and unidentified metal(s) in 50 nmol of Ap5A, and Ap5A is more labile to acid and molybdate than ATP.

The microsomal fraction (13 000 -60 000 x g pellet) from pea stem shows a very high divalent cation-dependent, diethylstilbestrol- and orthovanadate-inhibited ATPase and ADPase activity. No detectable inorganic or organic pyrophosphatase and adenylate kinase and almost negligible activities of mitochondrial ATPase and of other phosphomonoesterases are present in this preparation. The ATPase and ADPase activities of microsomes have been solubilized with NaClO4 and then purified by gel filtration and DEAE-Sephadex fractionation to a final specific activity of 71.5 and 102 mumol Pi/min per mg for ATP and ADP, respectively. The purified enzyme hydrolyzes triphosphonucleosides (ATP, CTP, GTP, UTP) and diphosphonucleosides (ADP and to a lesser extent CDP, UDP, IDP) and presents pH optima of 6 for ATP and 7 for ADP. It requires Mg2+, Mn2+ or Ca2+ and is inhibited by diethylstilbestrol and orthovanadate. The conclusion that the ATPase and ADPase activities belong to the same enzyme is based on the following results: (1) parallel effects of diethylstilbestrol and orthovanadate on both ATPase and ADPase; (2) parallel behavior of ATPase and ADPase throughout all the purification steps; (3) non-additivity of ATPase and ADPase and (4) lack of dilution of beta-32P formed from [beta-32P]-ATP by unlabelled ADP.

1. A method is described to prepare an ATPase-ATP synthase complex from pig heart mitochondria exhibiting a very high ATP-32Pi exchange activity (1.6 mumol/min per mag protein in optimal conditions). 2. The preparation is virtually devoid of nucleoside diphosphokinase and adenylate kinase activities. 3. Freeze-fracture studies show that the ATPase-ATP synthase complex is integrated in lipid vesicles of 400-600 A in diameter. 4. It contains the endogenous natural proteic inhibitor which seems to behave as a coupling factor. 5. The rate of ATP hydrolysis catalyzed by the ATPase-ATP synthase complex is competitively inhibited by ADP, while the presence of ADP increases the initial rate of 32Pi incorporation into ATP. 6. The 32Pi incorporation into ATP can occur at a rate almost equal to that of nucleoside triphosphate (NTP) hydrolysis provided that the rate of NTP hydrolysis is kept low and that the ADP concentration is high enough. In these conditions, a very high coupling between NTP hydrolysis and ATP synthesis can be demonstrated.

The ATP/ADP exchange is shown to be a partial reaction of the (H+ +K+)-ATPase by the absence of measurable nucleoside diphosphokinase activity and the insensitivity of the reaction to P1, P5-di(adenosine-5') pentaphosphate, a myokinase inhibitor. The exchange demonstrates an absolute requirement for Mg2+ and is optimal at an ADP/ATP ratio of 2. The high ATP concentration (K0.5=116 microM) required for maximal exchange is interpreted as evidence for the involvement of a low affinity form of nucleotide site. The ATP/ADP exchange is regarded as evidence for an ADP-sensitive form of the phosphoenzyme. In native enzyme, pre-steady state kinetics show that the formation of the phosphoenzyme is partially sensitive to ADP while modification of the enzyme by pretreatment with 5,5'-dithiobis(2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB) in the absence of Mg2+ results in a steady-state phosphoenzyme population, a component of which is ADP sensitive. The ATP/ADP exchange reaction can be either stimulated or inhibited by the presence of K+ as a function of pH and Mg2+.
