The photoaffinity label 8-azido-ATP has been used to study the effect of inhibition of ATP synthase on ATP-driven reverse electron transfer from succinate to NAD+ ('reversal'), succinate- and NADH-driven ATP synthesis and ATP-Pi exchange. In reversal, where ATPase functions as primary proton pump, inactivation by covalently bound nitreno-ATP results in an inhibition that is proportional to the inactivation of ATP hydrolysis, or, consequently, with the concentration of inactivated ATP synthases. Up to 60% inactivation of the reversal rate does not lead to a decrease in delta mu H+. Inhibition of ATP synthase as secondary proton pump results in case of NADH-driven ATP synthesis in a proportional inhibition, but with succinate as substrate ATP synthesis is less than proportionally inhibited, compared with inactivation of ATP hydrolysis. Inhibition of one of the primary pumps of NADH-driven ATP synthesis, the NADH:Q oxidoreductase, with rotenone also resulted in an inhibition of the rate of ATP synthesis proportional to that of the NADH oxidation. ATP-Pi exchange is much more affected than ATP hydrolysis by photoinactivation with 8-azido-ATP. Contrary to reversal and NADH-driven ATP synthesis the rate of ATP-Pi exchange does not depend linearly, but quadratically on the concentration of active ATP synthases. The observed proportional relationships between inhibition of the primary or secondary pump and the inhibition of the overall energy-transfer reactions do not support the existence of a pool intermediate in energy-transduction reactions. However, the results are consistent with a direct transfer of energy from redox enzymes to ATP synthase and vice versa.

A cell-free system prepared from rat liver containing cytosol and mitochondria as well as a number of cofactors and gluconeogenic intermediates at near-physiological concentrations was shown to form hexose 6-phosphates linearly from lactate + pyruvate + glutamate at a rate of 0.82 +/- 0.05 mumol/min per g of liver (mean +/- S.E.M., n = 8, 37 degrees C). The indicated rates were measured between 20 min and 60 min incubation time, when the system was near steady state. Experiments with either [1-14C]lactate or [U-14C]glutamate revealed that the incorporation of radioactive label into hexose 6-phosphates was proportional to the utilization of lactate + pyruvate and of glutamate during incubation and that both served as gluconeogenic substrates at a ratio of about 2:1. When the [ATP]/[ADP] ratio was lowered from 60 to 19 by addition of ATPase, the rate of hexose 6-phosphate formation fell to one-third. This decrease in gluconeogenic flux was mainly due to a decreased flow through the phosphoglycerate kinase step. Hexose 6-phosphate formation could also be decreased by increasing the ratio [NADH]/[NAD+], either by addition of ethanol or by increasing the initial concentration of lactate + pyruvate at a fixed ratio of 10:1. The observed inhibition was linked to a limitation in the availability of oxaloacetate for the phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase reaction and to an increased formation of sn-glycerol 3-phosphate. Finally, the rates of hexose 6-phosphate formation in incubations with cytosols from fed rats were only 50% of those observed with cytosols from animals starved for 48 h. One of the limiting steps was found to be the flow through the phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase step.

In order to elucidate the problem of which cells are involved in calcium transport and to estimate the role of mitochondria in calcium transport in the avian shell gland, the fine structure and the Ca-ATPase, succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent isocitrate dehydrogenase (NAD+-ICDH) activity of the shell gland of egg-laying Japanese quails were examined. The surface epithelial cells, consisting of ciliated cells with cilia and microvilli and non-ciliated cells with microvilli, had many large and electron-dense granules. The tubular-gland cells occupied the proprial layer and lacked secretory granules. When an egg was in the shell gland, the well-developed mitochondria of tubular-gland cells characteristically tended to accumulate in the apical cytoplasm, while they were scattered throughout the cytoplasm when an egg was not in the shell gland. Intense Ca-ATPase activity was found on the microvilli of tubular-gland cells, and moderate activity was found on the lateral-cell surface. In the surface epithelial cells, the basolateral cell surface showed moderate enzymatic activity. Both SDH and NAD+-ICDH activity were found in tubular-gland cells when an egg was in the shell gland. These results strongly suggest that calcium for eggshell calcification is actively transported by the tubular-gland (depending on Ca-ATPase activity) and that the mitochondria of gland cells may play an important role in this process as an energy source.

The mechanism of coupling between mitochondrial ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3) and nicotinamide nucleotide transhydrogenase (EC 1.6.1.1) was studied in reconstituted liposomes containing both purified enzymes and compared with their behavior in submitochondrial particles. In order to investigate the mode of coupling between the transhydrogenase and the ATPase by the double-inhibitor and inhibitor-uncoupler methods, suitable inhibitors of transhydrogenase and ATPase were selected. Phenylarsine oxide and A3'-O-(3-(N-(4-azido-2-nitrophenyl)amino)propionyl)-NAD+ were used as transhydrogenase inhibitors, whereas of the various ATPase inhibitors tested aurovertin was found to be the most convenient. The inhibition of the ATP-driven transhydrogenase activity was proportional to the inhibition of both the ATPase and the transhydrogenase. Inhibitor-uncoupler titrations showed an increased sensitivity of the coupled reaction towards carbonyl cyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone (FCCP)--an uncoupler that preferentially uncouples localized interactions, according to Herweijer et al. (Biochim. Biophys. Acta 849 (1986) 276-287)--when the primary pump was partially inhibited. However, when the secondary pump was partially inhibited the sensitivity towards FCCP remained unchanged. Similar results were obtained with submitochondrial particles. These results are in contrast to those obtained previously with the ATP-driven reverse electron flow. In addition, the amount of uncoupler required for uncoupling of the ATP-driven transhydrogenase was found to be similar to that required for the stimulation of the ATPase activity, both in reconstituted vesicles and in submitochondrial particles. Uncoupling of reversed electron flow to NAD+ required much less uncoupler. On the basis of these results, it is proposed that, in agreement with the chemiosmotic model, the interaction between ATPase and transhydrogenase in reconstituted vesicles as well as in submitochondrial particles occurs through the delta mu H+. In contrast, the energy transfer between ATPase and NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase appears to occur via a more direct interaction, according to the above-mentioned results by Herweijer et al.

In the obligate aerobe, moderate halophile bacterium, Ba1, the ion composition of the medium was found to have a profound influence on the response of the respiratory system to changes in the external pH. In the pH range 6.5 to 8.5 the respiratory activity either increased or decreased progressively, depending whether K+ or Na+ ions were omitted from the medium. A nearly constant rate of respiration was observed in the entire pH range when both K+ and Na+ were present simultaneously. The stimulatory effect of Na+ was expressed especially in the alkaline pH range, where it induced acidification of the intracellular milieu. It was manifest in whole cells as well as in inverted membrane vesicles, and was not affected by either uncoupler or inhibitor of H+-ATPase. In contrast, the respiratory stimulation induced by K+ was most prominent in the acidic pH range and was accompanied by alkalinization of the internal pH. The effect of K+ was observed only in intact cells. Agents which interfered with energy transfer suppressed the effect of K+. With ethanol as the electron donor, Na+ was found to decrease the extent of reduction of the cellular NAD+ in the aerobic steady state, and to cause increased reduction of the cytochromes. K+ had no appreciable effect on the extent of reduction of any component in the respiratory chain. The implications of the above findings are discussed in relation to the mechanism(s) involved in the cation-mediated regulation of respiration and intracellular pH.

An ion-pair, reverse-phase, high-performance liquid chromatography method of assay was developed and used in a series of rate studies carried out with the enzyme chicken liver NAD+ kinase (ATP:NAD+ 2'-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.23). Complete separation of all products and reactants was achieved within 15 min. ATP, NAD+, ADP, and NADP+ were monitored at 260 nm as they eluted from a Zorbax (Dupont) ODS (4.6 X 250-mm) column using an acetonitrile and 0.01 mM NH4(H2PO4)/0.005 M tetrabutylammonium phosphate (pH 7.0) gradient. The enzyme shows a marked preference for ATP (and dATP) and Mg2+ (or Mn2+) relative to other trinucleotides and divalent metal ions. It exhibits residual adenylate kinase and ATPase activity, but no NADH kinase activity. When polyphosphate replaced ATP, NADP+ production dropped to 2.5%. The addition of Ca2+ and/or bovine brain calmodulin did not significantly enhance the rate of NADP+ production.

The interaction between pure transhydrogenase and ATPase (Complex V) from beef heart mitochondria was investigated with transhydrogenase-ATPase vesicles in which the two proteins were co-reconstituted by dialysis or dilution procedures. In addition to phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine, reconstitution required phosphatidylserine and lysophosphatidylcholine. Transhydrogenase-ATPase vesicles catalyzed a 20-30-fold stimulation of the reduction of NADP+ or thio-NADP+ by NADH and a 70-fold shift of the apparent equilibrium expressed as the nicotinamide nucleotide ratio [NADPH][NAD+]/[NADP+][NADH]. In both of these respects, the transhydrogenase-ATPase vesicles were severalfold more efficient than beef heart submitochondrial particles. By measuring the ATP-driven transhydrogenase and the oligomycin-sensitive ATPase activities simultaneously and under the same conditions at low ATP concentrations, i.e. below 15 microM, the ATP-driven transhydrogenase/oligomycin-sensitive ATPase activity ratio was found to be about 3. This value is consistent with the stoichiometries of three protons translocated per ATP hydrolyzed and one proton translocated per NADPH formed and with a mechanism where the two enzymes interact through a delocalized proton-motive force.

The maximum Gibbs free energies of reverse electron transfer from succinate to NAD+ and from cytochrome c to fumarate driven by ATP hydrolysis in submitochondrial particles from beef heart were measured as a function of the Gibbs free energy of ATP hydrolysis. The ratio of the energies delta G'redox/delta G'ATP was 1.40 from succinate to NAD+ and 0.89 from cytochrome c to succinate. The ratio, equivalent to a thermodynamic P/2e-ratio, was dependent on whether the electrochemical proton gradient was primarily a membrane potential or a pH gradient for the cytochrome c to fumarate reaction. The results are consistent with H+/ATP = 3 for F1 ATPase, H+/2e- = 4 for NADH-CoQ reductase, and H+(matrix)/2e- = 2 for succinate-cytochrome c reductase.

Coupling factor B activity was measured by the stimulation of the ATP-driven NAD+ reduction by succinate or the 32Pi-ATP exchange activity of Factor B-depleted submitochondrial particles. Half-maximal coupling activity was inhibited by 30 microM cadmium, 5 microM phenylarsine oxide, or 0.3 mM arsenite-2,3-dimercaptopropanol. The inhibition was relieved by slight excess of dithiol but not by a 10-fold molar excess of 2-mercaptoethanol. Inhibition of coupling activity by phenylarsine oxide or cadmium was not due to interference in binding of Factor B to depleted particles. Isolated Factor B binds phenylarsine oxide resulting in loss of ability to stimulate depleted submitochondrial particles. The inhibition was largely overcome by dithiol but not by monothiols. The residual coupling activity of depleted submitochondrial particles was highly resistant to cadmium or arsenical. Moreover, binding of arsenical to the depleted particles per se, did not result in inhibition of Factor B-stimulated activity. Furthermore, the addition of phenylarsine oxide to H+-ATPase resulted in loss of Pi-ATP exchange and stimulation of oligomycin-sensitive ATPase activities. Both effects were further potentiated by 2-mercaptoethanol and reversed by dithiols. These effects parallel uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria by these inhibitors and point to Factor B as the probable component sensitive to these inhibitors.

Aldosterone-dependent changes in citrate synthase (CS) activity have been used as an index of mineralocorticoid target sites. However, adrenalectomy (ADX) resulted in a fall in activity of CS and several other enzymes in rabbit heart, a tissue with glucocorticoid-but not mineralocorticoid-specific receptors. The enzymes included CS (2.03-1.36 U/mg protein, normal----ADX, P less than 0.001), isocitrate dehydrogenase-NADP+ (1.10-0.80 U/mg, P less than 0.002), isocitrate dehydrogenase-NAD+ (0.034-0.020 U/mg, P less than 0.01), and hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA lyase (0.072 to 0.035 U/mg, P less than 0.001); in contrast, mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase levels were not significantly reduced by adrenal loss. There was also a decrease after surgery in sarcolemmal Na-K-(17.30-12.31 mumol Pi . mg protein-1 . h-1, P less than 0.002) and Mg-ATPase activities (14.16-12.11 mumol Pi . mg protein-1 . h-1, P less than 0.05). However, ADX did not result in a significant change in heart weight per kilogram body weight or recovery of mitochondrial protein per gram heart. CS was also assayed in hearts from ADX animals following acute (90 min) and chronic (3 day) steroid replacement. Although neither acute intravenous aldosterone (10 micrograms/kg) nor dexamethasone (100 micrograms/kg) increased activity, exposure to multiple subcutaneous injections of either steroid over a 3-day period significantly elevated CS above ADX values. The coordinate changes in the levels of several myocardial enzymes associated with energy metabolism is discussed in terms of an adaptation to chronic alterations in energy demands as opposed to specific mineralocorticoid or glucocorticoid receptor-mediated processes.
