Bacterial periplasmic transport systems require the function of a specific substrate-binding protein, located in the periplasm, and several cytoplasmic membrane transport components. In Escherichia coli K-12, the arginine-ornithine transport system requires an arginine-ornithine-binding protein and the lysine-arginine-ornithine (LAO) transport system includes a LAO-binding protein. Both periplasmic proteins can be phosphorylated by a single kinase. The enzyme exhibits a kinase activity and an ATPase activity. A mutant, defective in the phosphorylation of the arginine-ornithine and the LAO periplasmic proteins, was isolated and characterized. The defective enzymatic activity was reflected in substantially reduced levels of transport activity of the periplasmic transport systems that include each of the binding proteins. The binding proteins, extracted from the mutant, showed no detectable alterations in terms of quantity, electrophoretic mobility, or affinity constants. An apparent Km value of 1.0 mM was calculated for the ATPase activity of the defective enzyme. The ATPase activity of the wild-type enzyme yielded an apparent Km value of 50 microM. The amount of inorganic phosphate incorporated in vivo and in vitro into the binding proteins by the activity of the defective kinase was reduced to very low levels. A structural gene for the phosphorylating enzyme was located near the serA marker on the linkage map of E. coli. These results indicate that phosphorylation of the periplasmic transport protein is obligatorily linked to the normal function of the periplasmic transport system.

Control processes in oxidative phosphorylation have been studied in three experimental models. (1) In isolated yeast mitochondria, external ATP is a regulatory effector of cytochrome-c oxidase activity. In phosphorylating or uncoupling states, the relationships between respiratory rate and delta mu H+, and the respiratory rate and cytochrome-c oxidase reduction level are dependent on this kinetic regulation. (2) In rat liver mitochondria, the response of the respiratory rate to uncoupler addition is age-dependent: liver mitochondria isolated from young rats maintain a greater delta mu H+ than liver mitochondria isolated from adults, with the same respiratory rate obtained with the same concentration of uncoupler. This behaviour is linked to redox proton pump properties, i.e., to the degree of intrinsic uncoupling induced by uncoupler addition. (3) The effect of almitrine, a new kind of ATPase/ATPsynthase inhibitor, was studied in mammalian mitochondria. (i) Almitrine inhibits oligomycin-sensitive ATPase - it decreases the ATPase/O value without any change in delta mu H+; (ii) almitrine increased the mechanistic H+/ATP stoichiometry of ATPase/ATPsynthase; (iii) almitrine-induced changes in H+/ATPase stoichiometry depend on the flux magnitude through ATPase. These results are discussed in terms of the following interdependent parameters; flux value, force, pump efficiency and control coefficient.

More than 35 site-directed mutants of the plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae have been constructed and expressed to investigate the function of N- and C-termini and of conserved amino acids. Conserved motif TGES seems to form part of both the catalytic machinery for the hydrolysis of the phosphorylated intermediate and the vanadate binding site. In addition, it is involved in the coupling of ATP hydrolysis to H+ transport. The phosphorylated intermediate is also essential for this coupling, but not for ATP hydrolysis. The aspartate residues of conserved motifs DPPR, TGD and TGDGVND (the last one) seem to form part of the ATP binding site. The positive charge of the conserved motif KGAP is important for the kinase or phosphorylating activity. A conserved proline and a conserved aspartate predicted to have a transmembrane location are essential for activity. The N-terminus contains a conserved acidic region which may be involved in assembly into the plasma membrane. All the hydrophobic stretches at the C-terminus are also required for assembly. The last 11 amino acids constitute a non-essential inhibitory domain involved in regulation of the enzyme by glucose metabolism.

Defining the structural and catalytic properties of the ion transport site(s) of enzyme-phosphorylating ATPases is of key importance in understanding the mechanism of ion transport by these enzymes. In the case of the H+, K(+)-ATPase, SCH 28080 (3-(cyanomethyl)-2-methyl-8-(phenylmethoxy)imidazo[1,2a]-pyridine) has been shown to act as a high affinity, extracytosolic, K(+)-competitive inhibitor of Mg2+, K(+)-ATPase activity (Wallmark, B., Briving, C., Fryklund, J., Munson, K., Jackson, R., Mendlein, J., Rabon, E., and Sachs, G. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 2077-2084). To define the nature of the SCH 28080-binding site in relation to the catalytic cycle of the enzyme, we have investigated the effects of this potential K+ transport site probe on the steady-state and partial reactions of the H+, K(+)-ATPase. In the absence of K+, SCH 28080 inhibits Mg2(+)-ATPase activity with high affinity (apparent Ki = 30 nM). Inhibition is due to K(+)-like prevention of phosphoenzyme formation. SCH 28080 has no effect on Mg2(+)-catalyzed dephosphorylation. SCH 28080, at concentrations less than 0.5 microM, increases the apparent Km for K+ for Mg2+, K(+)-ATPase activity with little effect on the maximum velocity. At higher concentrations of SCH 28080, reversal of inhibition by higher K+ concentrations is not complete, due to inhibition of ATPase activity by high K+. In contrast, SCH 28080 inhibits K(+)-stimulated dephosphorylation by competitively displacing K+ from phosphoenzyme with an extracytosolic conformation of the monovalent cation site (E2P) at low concentrations of SCH 28080 and K+. At higher concentrations, 10 microM SCH 28080 and 50 mM K+, a slowly dephosphorylating complex with both SCH 28080 and K+ bound to E2P may form which represents a small fraction of the total E2P (15-25%). Preincubation of SCH 28080 with E2P completely blocks K(+)-stimulated dephosphorylation, and K+ is unable to reverse this preincubation effect, indicating that the SCH 28080 dissociation rate is at least as slow as K(+)-independent dephosphorylation of E2P. These findings indicate that SCH 28080 inhibits K(+)-stimulated ATPase activity by competing with K+ for binding to E2P and blocking K(+)-stimulated dephosphorylation. In the absence of K+, SCH 28080 has a higher apparent affinity for E2P, but it permits K(+)-independent dephosphorylation. Since the dissociation rate of SCH 28080 from the enzyme is slow, phosphoenzyme formation is prevented by SCH 28080 remaining bound to the extracytosolic conformation of the monovalent cation site, thereby reducing the steady-state level of phosphoenzyme.

A synaptosomal factor stimulated by neurotransmitters activates the Na, K-ATPase system effecting the phosphorylating intermediates moving the Na, K-ATPase system in the mode of simultaneous transport of Na+ and K+. This conclusion has been made during the analysis of kinetics of the effect of MgATP complex, free Mg2+ ions and ATP on Na, K-ATPase activity. Unlike the EGTA, the factor under study does not change the number of essential activators (ions of Na+ and K+) of the Na, K-ATPase system at the equimolar ATP and Mg2+ correlation.

To help characterize the Na,K-ATPase active site with enzyme incorporated into phospholipid vesicles, the activities with alternative substrates were compared, 22Na/Na-transport was equivalent with ATP, CTP, carbamylphosphate and acetylphosphate, but slower with CTP, 3-O-methylfluoresceinphosphate (3-O-MFP), nitrophenylphosphate and umbelliferonephosphate. It indicates a slower rate of formation of phosphorylating enzyme complex in conformation position of E1 (E1P) when the second group of substrates is bound with enzyme active center. 22Na/K-transport was half as effective with CTP as with ATP and was far slower with the other substrates. It indicates a more stringent selectivity at the low-affinity site of enzyme in conformation E2 that accelerates the slow step of this transport mode. Although enzyme modification with fluoresceinisothiocyanate blocks the high-affinity site to ATP, the K-phosphatase reaction catalyzed by E2 is retained, even with a substrate, 3-O-MFP, that binds to the adenine pocket. Dimethylsulfoxide inhibits hydrolysis of the nucleotides and of the carboxylic phosphate substrates of the K-phosphatase reaction, but stimulates hydrolysis of the phenolic phosphate substrates (nitrophenylphosphate and umbelliferone phosphate) which normally are hydrolyzed more slowly than the other substrates. On the basis of these data the authors propose the model of Na,K-ATPase active center.

The anti-proliferative effect of interferons (IFNs) was investigated, focusing on the physiological activities of membrane-associated proteins involved in the progress of cell proliferation. In preliminary screening of the inhibitory effect of IFNs against the cell growth of various human hematopoietic tumor cells, Daudi cell was the most sensitive to rIFN-alpha 2a. SDS-PAGE followed by autoradiography detected that treatment of Daudi cells with rIFN-alpha 2a significantly reduced phosphorylation of the membrane-associated Mr 98,000 and 70,000 polypeptides. To determine the physiological significance of these phosphorylating polypeptides in mediation of the IFN effects, they were purified from Daudi cells. It was found that the molecular weight of the purified polypeptides was approximately 330,000 and it (designated 330-kDa protein) was consist of two distinct subunits [alpha-subunit (Mr 98,000) and beta-subunit (Mr 70,000)]. The biochemical properties, such as subunit structure, subunit phosphorylation, requirements for phosphorylating activity and protease sensitivity of the 330-kDa protein were similar to those reported for Na+, K(+)-ATPase. Evidence provided here suggests that the anti-proliferative action of IFNs may, at least in part, be implicated in the IFN-induced physiological impairment of the membrane-associated 330-kDa protein.

The effects of hypothyroidism and of replacement therapy with T4 or T3 were studied on the enzymatic activities of liver subcellular fractions isolated from Cynomolgus monkeys. Animals were sacrificed 20 days after thyroidectomy. In mitochondria, thyroidectomy decreased significantly the respiratory chain activity (succinate cytochrome c-reductase), the transfer of cytosolic reducing equivalents (glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase) and the phosphorylating capacity (oligomycin-sensitive ATPase and state 3 respiratory rate). The activity of nucleolar and nucleoplasmic RNA polymerases dropped by about 50% in hypothyroid monkeys. In T4 (2.5 micrograms/kg/d) or T3 (1 microgram/kg/d) treated thyroidectomized animals, the iodothyronine concentrations and the activity of mitochondria and nuclei enzymes were halfway between normal and hypothyroid values. Thus, the mitochondrial effects of thyroidectomy in monkey are, as in rat, at least partly secondary to a decrease in nucleocytoplasmic protein synthesis.

Progress along the path of the sodium pump cycle requires a stepwise recruitment of additional subunits for maximal activity. These results show that whereas a particle the size of the alpha beta protomer presents Na+,K+-ATPase activity at 10 microM ATP, an additional subunit, perhaps a second alpha-chain, is required to obtain the much greater Na+,K+-ATPase activity resulting from the occupation of low-affinity ATP sites at physiological ATP concentrations. A non-phosphorylating ATP analogue, however, will modestly stimulate the Na+,K+-ATPase activity acting at an alternative low-affinity site or step on the alpha beta protomer.

The rates of ATP synthesis and of ATP-driven NAD reduction have been measured in bovine heart submitochondrial particles as a function of the fraction of inhibited redox pumps (in titrations with either antimycin or rotenone) and of the fraction of inhibited ATPases (in titrations with DCCD). The flux control coefficients of the redox and ATPase proton pumps on the rates of ATP synthesis and of ATP-driven NAD reduction have been derived and found to be equal to 1 for both pumps; i.e., both pumps appear to be 'completely rate limiting'. A theoretical analysis of the inhibitor titration approach based on kinetic models of chemiosmotic coupling and on the theory of metabolic control is presented. This analysis (i) shows that the results of the single inhibitor titrations are incompatible with a delocalized chemiosmotic mechanism of energy coupling if the proton conductance of the membrane is sufficiently low with respect to the conductances of the pumps; and (ii) suggests an experimental approach based on the determination of the P/O and the respiratory control ratios at different degrees of inhibition of the proton pumps to establish the origin of the 'loose coupling' of submitochondrial particle preparations. Three independent types of observation show that the 'loose coupling' of the particle preparation is not mainly due to an increased membrane proton conductance. The same and other independent observations are consistent with the view that the loose coupling of submitochondrial particle preparation is due mainly to inhomogeneity, i.e. to the presence of a subpopulation of highly leaky non-phosphorylating vesicles respiring at maximal rate. The results as a whole together with the simulations and analysis presented lead to the conclusion that the mechanism of free-energy coupling in submitochondrial particles is not completely delocalized.
