The transmembrane electrical potential (deltaphi), the proton flux (H+), the rate of electron transport (e), the pH gradient (deltapH) and the rate of phosphorylation (ATP) were measured in chloroplasts of spinach. Photosynthesis was excited periodically with flashes of variable frequencies and intensities. A new method is described for determining the rate of electron transport and proton flux. Under conditions where the rate of electron transport and proton flux are not pH controlled the following correlations were found in the range 50 mV less than or equal to deltaphi less than or equal to 125 mV and 1.8 less than or equal to deltapH less than or equal to 2.7: (1) The pH gradient, deltapH, increases with H+ independently of Phout between 7-9. (2) The rate of phosphorylation, ATP, depends exponentially on deltapH (at constant deltaphi) and is independent of pHout between 7-9. (3) The rate of phosphorylation, ATP, depends also on deltaphi (at constant deltapH and at constant proton flux H+). (4) The proton flux via the ATPase pathway, Hp+, depends non-linearly on the ratio of the proton concentrations: Hp+ approximately (Hin+/Hout+)b, (b=2.3--2.6). The proton flux via the basal pathway, Hb+, depends linearly on the ratio of the proton concentrations: Hb+ approximately (Hin/Hout). (5) The ratio deltaH+/ATP (e/ATP, i.e. the ratio of the total proton flux, Hp+ + Hb+, and the rate of ATP formation, ATP, depends strongly on deltaphi and on deltapH. The ratio is deltaH+/ATP approximately 3 (e/ATP approximately 1.5) at deltapH 2.7 and deltaphi = 125 mV. (6) It is supposed that the reason for the dependence of deltaH+/ATP on deltaphi anddeltapH is the different functional dependence of the basal proton flux Hb+ and the phosphorylating proton flux Hp+ on deltapH and deltaphi. The calculation of deltaH+/ATP on the basis of this assumption is in fair agreement with the experimental values. Also the "threshold" effects can be explained in this way. (7) The ratio of deltaHp+/ATP, i.e. the ratio of the phosphorylating proton flux Hp+ and ATP, is deltaHp+/ATP APPROXIMATELY 2.4.

Treatment of phosphorylating fragments of bacterial membrane from Micrococcus lysodeikticus with trypsin leads to increase ATPase activity. As a result of this treatment, the membrane fragments acquire the ability to transform the ATP energy into transmembrane difference in potential. Dithiothreitol has a similar effect to that of trypsin on the membrane fragments from M. lysodeikticus. Dicyclohexylcarbodimide inhibits ATPase of the membrane fragments of M. lysodeikticus, and also the ATPase-reaction-coupled generation of membrane potential. It has been suggested that the increased ATPase activity of membranes from M. lysodeikticus during treatment with trypsin and dithiothreitol is connected with the effect of these agents on the protein inhibitor of ATPase.

1. Preincubation with N-ethylmaleimide inhibits the overall activity of highly purified (Na+ +K+)-ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) preparations of rabbit kidney outer medulla. 2. This inhibition is decreased by addition of ATP or 4-nitrophenylphosphate under non-phosphorylating conditions, and also by addition of ADP or adenylylimidodiphosphate. 3. N-ethylmaleimide treatment leads to inhibition of K+-stimulated 4-nitrophenylphosphatase activity, Na+-stimulated ATPase activity, and phosphorylation by ATP as well as by inorganic phosphate. These inhibitions strictly parallel that of the overal (Na+ +K+)-ATPase reaction. 4. N-ethylmaleimide lowers the number of sites which are phosphorylated by inorganic phosphate, without affecting the dissociation constant of the enzyme-phosphate complex. 5. N-ethylmaleimide does not affect the relative stimulation by ATP of the K+-stimulated 4-nitrophenylphosphatase activity. 6. These effects of N-ethylmaleimide can be explained as a complete loss of active enzyme, either by reaction of N-ethylmaleimide inside the active center, or by alterations in the quaternary structure through reactions outside the active center.

4-Phenylspiro [furan-2(3H),1-phtalan]3,3'-dione (fluorescamine) was used to covalently modify amino groups of thylakoids. Subsequently its effect on parameters of energy transfer and phosphorylating activity was assessed. While electron transport, the extent of proton uptake, 515 nm change and 9-aminoacridine quench were relatively resistant to such treatment, the functions connected to coupling factor 1, namely ATP formation by acid/base transition, ATPase activity and photophosphorylation were affected much earlier. Photophosphorylation appears to be the most sensitive. The data are interpreted as indicating an involvement of free amino groups in energy transfer.

We have recognized an experimental confluence between oxidative phosphorylation and chemical carcinogenesis and, therefore, became interested in the mitochondrial target of hydrazine, which is not only a potential environmental hazard as a carcinogen but is also a likely metabolite of many drugs. Hydrazine induced a Pi dependent transitory uncoupling of rat liver mitochondria when beta-hydroxybutyrate was the substrate. Uncoupling was inhibited by rutamycin; accordingly, the mitochondrial target for nucleophilic hydrazine is an electrophilic site, presumably involving activated Pi. The protective action of ATP2, ADP, PPi and Mg++ was attributed to a conformational change of the phosphorylating enzyme which participated in oxidative phosphorylation. In a mitochondrial system which included ATP gramicidin potassium ion and sulfate, hydrazine, acting as a large cation but not as a nucleophile, blocked mitochondrial swelling and the increment in ATPase activity associated with potassium ion. These data in conjunction with our previous reports dealing with other carcinogens and certain of their derivatives also contribute to an experimental confluence between oxidative phosphorylation and chemical carcinogenesis and are compatible with toxic effects of hydrazine on mitochondria observed previously by others.

Ethidium bromide, in addition to combination with mitochondrial nucleic acids, is a phosphorylation inhibitor during glutamate and succinate respiration by mitochondria. Exhaustive washing of ethidium bromide-treated mitochondria did not relieve the inhibition nor significantly decrease the amount of bound dye. Dialysis against a cation exchange resin at 3 degrees for 17 hr removed about 97% of bound dye. This restored phosphorylating capacity to that of untreated mitochondria which had also been dialyzed against the resin. Since state 3 respiration was diminished and state 4 was unaffected by the presence of the acridine dye, and since neither swelling of mitochondria nor release of latent ATPase was observed, then ethidium bromide was not an electron transport inhibitor nor an uncoupler of oxidative phosphorylation. Inhibition of metabolic processes by ethidium bromide may be due in part to depressed generation of mitochondrial ATP.

The (Na+ plus K+)-ATPase activities in salt gland homogenates increased 3- to 4-fold after saline treatment of ducks for 3 weeks. The ATPase was purified to a specific activity of 460 and 1015 mumol Pi/mg protein per h, respectively, in control and saline-treated ducks. The catalytic protein was identified on polyacrylamide electrophoresis gels by phosphorylating the enzyme with (32P)ATP. The molecular weight of the protein was estimated to be 98 000. The amount of catalytic unit increased commensurately with the enzyme activity after saline treatment. It is therefore concluded that the increased enzyme activity is due to a de novo enzyme synthesis and is not an activation effect. Phospholipid concentration in the salt gland tissue increased 1.7-fold after the saline treatment. Significant increases occurred in the percentage of the total phospholipids as phosphatidylserine and sphingomyelin. In the partially purified (Na+ plus K+)-ATPase preparation, the percentage composition of phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylethanolamine increased after saline treatment.

Ouabain-binding and phosphorylation of (Na+ mk+)-ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3) of the plasma membranes from kidney were investigated after treatment with N-ethylmaleimide or oligomycin. Either of these inhibitors brought about the following changes: the phosphoenzyme, formed in the presence of Na+, Mg2+ and ATP became essentially insensitive to splitting by K+ but was split by ADP. One mole of this ADP-sensitive phosphoenzyme bound one mole of ouabain but the enzyme-ouabain complex was less stable than in the native enzyme primarily because the rate of its dissociation increased. Ouabain was bound to the ADP-sensitive phosphoenzyme in the presence of Mg2+ alone and addition of inorganic phosphate enhanced both the rate of formation and the steady-state level of the enzyme-ouabain complex. The inhibitors did not affect the properties of this second type of complex. Both in the native enzyme and in the enzyme treated with the two inhibitors inorganic phosphate enhanced ouabain binding by phosphorylating the active center of the enzyme as shown (a) by mapping the labeled peptides from the enzyme after peptic digestion, (b) by inhibition of this phosphorylation with Na+ and (c) by the 1:1 stoichiometric relation between this phosphorylation and the amount of bound ouabain. Unlike the phosphoenzyme, the binding of ouabain remained sensitive to K+ in the enzyme treated with the inhibitors. K+ slowed ouabain-binding either in the presence of Na+, Mg2+ and ATP or of Mg2+ and inorganic phosphate. A higher concentration of K+ was needed to slow ouabain-binding either in the presence of Na+, Mg2+ and ATP or of Mg2+ and inorganic phosphate. A higher concentration of K+ was needed to slow ouabain-binding than to stimulate dephosphorylation. This finding is interpreted as being an indication of separate sites for K+ on the enzyme: a site(s) with high K+-affinity which stimulates dephosphorylation, another site(s) with moderate K+-affinity which inhibits ouabain-binding. Inhibitors may enhance formation of the ADP-sensitive phosphoenzyme by blocking interaction between K+ and the site(s) with high affinity.

The ATPase of matrix vesicles is not stimulated by calcium ions, nor do the vesicles have any capacity to metabolize glucose. ADPase of high activity is also present; thus vesicles cannot be a component of the conventional ATP cycle, in which energy is stored by phosphorylating ADP and released by hydrolyzing the resultant ATP. These results do not support speculations that matrix vesicles might function by concentrating calcium via an energy-dependent ion transport system such as those found in the plasma membrane and the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Matrix vesicles' alkaline phosphatase can be solubilized by treatment with certain detergents: sodium dodecyl sulfate (12 mM and 16 mM), cetylpyridinium chloride (14mM), and deoxycholic acid (DOC, 14 MM). The first two detergents denature the enzyme during storage whereas DOC does not. DOC will also solubilize ATPase and inorganic pyrophosphatase. Yields of the three enzymes are 85-95%. Dialysis of a DOC digest of vesicles removes DOC and 43% of protein, and also causes much of the alkaline phosphatase to become particulate once again.

1. The activity of the ATPase (adenosine triphosphatase) of phosphorylating particles prepared by sonication of bovine heart mitochondria in the presence of MgCl2 and ATP is influenced by the isolation method for the mitochondria used in the preparation of particles. Type-I particles, made from mitochondria isolated in a medium lacking succinate, have a lower ATPase activity than to Type-II particles, which are prepared from mitochondria isolated in a medium containing succinate. 2. Centrifugation under appropriate energized conditions increases the ATPase activity of Type-I particles almost to that of the Type-II particles. The ATPase activity of Type-II particles was only slightly stimulated by this procedure. These data are interpreted as indicating a higher content of the ATPase-inhibitor protein in the Type-I particles. 3. A comparison was made of the ATP-driven enhancement of 8-anilinonaphthalene-1-sulphonate fluorescence and the exchange of the endogenous tightly bound nucleotides of the ATPase in Type-I and Type-II particles. The effect of exogenous inhibitor protein on both these reactions was also studied. 4. The time-scale on which the inhibitor protein can exchange between ATPase molecules is discussed.
