Spinach leaf mitochondrial F0F1 ATPase has been purified and is shown to consist of twelve polypeptides. Five of the polypeptides constitute the F1 part of the enzyme. The remaining polypeptides, with molecular masses of 28 kDa, 23 kDa, 18.5 kDa, 15 kDa, 10.5 kDa, 9.5 kDa and 8.5 kDa, belong to the F0 part of the enzyme. This is the first report concerning identification of the subunits of the plant mitochondrial F0. The identification of the components is achieved on the basis of the N-terminal amino acid sequence analysis and Western blot technique using monospecific antibodies against proteins characterized in other sources. The 28-kDa protein crossreacts with antibodies against the subunit of bovine heart ATPase with N-terminal Pro-Val-Pro- which corresponds to subunit F0b of Escherichia coli F0F1. Sequence analysis of the N-terminal 32 amino acids of the 23-kDa protein reveals that this protein is similar to mammalian oligomycin-sensitivity-conferring protein and corresponds to the F1 delta subunit of the chloroplast and E. coli ATPases. The 18.5-kDa protein crossreacts with antibodies against subunit 6 of the beef heart F0 and its N-terminal sequence of 14 amino acids shows a high degree of sequence similarity to the conserved regions at N-terminus of the ATPase subunits 6 from different sources. ATPase subunit 6 corresponds to subunit F0a of the E. coli enzyme. The 15-kDa protein and the 10.5-kDa protein crossreact with antibodies against F6 and the endogenous ATPase inhibitor protein of beef heart F0F1-ATPase, respectively. The 9.5-kDa protein is an N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-binding protein corresponding to subunit F0c of the E. coli enzyme. The 8.5-kDa protein is of unknown identity. The isolated spinach mitochondrial F0F1 ATPase catalyzes oligomycin-sensitive ATPase activity of 3.5 mumol.mg-1.min-1. The enzyme catalyzes also hydrolysis of GTP (7.5 mumol.mg-1.min-1) and ITP (4.4 mumol.mg-1.min-1). Hydrolysis of ATP was stimulated fivefold in the presence of amphiphilic detergents, however the hydrolysis of other nucleotides could not be stimulated by these agents. These results show that the plant mitochondrial F0F1 ATPase complex differs in composition from the other mitochondrial, chloroplast and bacterial ATPases. The enzyme is, however, more closely related to the yeast mitochondrial ATPase and to the animal mitochondrial ATPase than to the chloroplast enzyme. The plant mitochondrial enzyme, however, exhibits catalytic properties which are characteristic for the chloroplast enzyme.

The stimulated fusion of intracellular H/K-ATPase-containing tubulovesicles with a target canalicular membrane surface is central to the process of acid secretion. A super-family of small GTP-binding proteins (smGTPBPs) has been implicated in many aspects of intracellular dynamics and vesicle membrane trafficking. We have investigated the presence of smGTPBPs in isolated rabbit parietal cells. Parietal cells possess a number of smGTPBP species with molecular masses of 18-28 kDa. One 23 kDa smGTPBP has been localized to tubulovesicles and identified immunochemically as rab2. Rab2 redistributes during stimulation in concert with the movement of the H/K-ATPase. The results demonstrate that specific smGTPBPs are associated with the parietal cell secretory apparatus. Small GTP-binding proteins are important candidate regulators of parietal secretory membrane dynamics.

We have examined growth, water status and gene expression in dark-grown soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) seedlings in response to water deficit (low water potentials) during the first days following germination. The genes encoded the plasma membrane proton ATPase and two proteins of 28 kDa and 31 kDa putatively involved in vegetative storage. Water potentials of stems and roots decreased when 2-day-old seedlings were transferred to water-saturated air. Stem growth was inhibited immediately. Root growth continued at control rates for one day and then was totally inhibited when the normal root-stem water potential gradient was reversed. Expression of mRNA for the 28 kDa and 31 kDa proteins, measured independently using specific 3'-end probes, occurred about equally in stems. However, only the mRNA for the 31 kDa protein was detected in roots and at a lower abundance than in stems. Low water potentials increased the mRNA only for the 28 kDa protein in stems and the 31 kDa protein in roots. This differential expression followed the inhibition of stem growth but preceded the inhibition of root growth. The expression of the message for the ATPase, measured using a probe synthesized from a partial oat ATPase clone, was low in stems and roots but there was a 6-fold increase at low water potentials in roots. The increase followed the inhibition of root growth. This appears to be the first instance of regulation of ATPase gene expression in plants and the first demonstration of differential expression of the 28 kDa, 31 kDa, and ATPase messages. The correlation with the differential growth responses of the stems and roots raises the possibility that the differential gene expression could be involved in the growth response to low water potentials.

A simple and high yield purification procedure for the isolation of F0F1-ATPase from spinach leaf mitochondria has been developed. This is the first report concerning purification and composition of the plant mitochondrial F0F1-ATPase. The enzyme is selectively extracted from inner membrane vesicles with the zwitterionic detergent, 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl) dimethyl ammonio]-1- propane sulfonate (CHAPS). The purified enzyme exhibits a high oligomycin-sensitive ATPase activity (3,6 mumol.min-1.mg-1). SDS-PAGE of the purified F0F1-ATPase complex reveals protein bands of molecular masses of 54 kDa (F1 alpha,beta), 33 kDa (F1 gamma), 28 kDa, 23 kDa, 21 kDa (F1 delta), 18.5 kDa, 15 kDa, 10.5 kDa, 9.5 kDa (F1 epsilon) and 8.5 kDa. All polypeptides migrate as one complex in a polyacrylamide gradient gel under non-denaturing conditions in the presence of 0.1% Triton X-100. Five polypeptides could be identified as subunits of F1. Polypeptides of molecular masses 28 kDa, 23 kDa, 18.5 kDa, 15 kDa, 10.5 kDa, 9.5 kDa and 8.5 kDa constitute the F0 part of the complex. Our results show that polypeptide composition of the plant mitochondrial F0 differs from other eukaryotic F0 of yeast, mammals and chloroplasts.

Limited digestion of caldesmon by alpha-chymotrypsin generates mainly 110, 80, 60, 38, and 28 kDa fragments. Affinity chromatography of these fragments on columns immobilized with myosin, HMM, or tropomyosin showed that the bound fraction from these columns was similar and it contained 110, 80, 60 and 28 kDa fragments. These fragments did not bind to myosin filaments, acto-HMM, actin or tropomyosin-actin in the solution, and they had no effect on the actin-activated ATPase of HMM. In contrast, the flow-through fraction from these affinity columns inhibited the actin-activated ATPase. Binding studies revealed that the 38 kDa fragment and its break down products bound to actin and tropomyosin-actin, and they were released partially from actin by calmodulin with a concomitant increase in the ATPase activity. These results indicate that, unlike the actin binding domain, the myosin and tropomyosin binding domains require the caldesmon molecule to be intact in order to exert their effects on the protein-protein interaction.

Renal calcium transport is described as the result of two processes, a paracellular, gradient-dependent process that predominates in most segments of the nephron and a transcellular, energy-dependent step that characterizes calcium transport in the distal convoluted tubule (DCT). Transcellular calcium transport involves entry into the DCT cell, possibly via channels, intracellular movement which appears to be facilitated by the presence of the vitamin D-dependent, cytosolic calcium-binding protein (CaBPr, calbindin D28k, mol mass approximately 28 kDa), and extrusion via the Ca-ATPase. Although much is known about calcium channels, their presence in renal tissue has only been demonstrated by preliminary studies. Quantitative data on CaBPr content of rat DCT are also unavailable, but theoretical analysis and early experimental values of intracellular self-diffusion of calcium have confirmed the need for an intracellular calcium "ferry," i.e., a molecule like CaBPr to amplify intracellular calcium movement. Available data on the plasma membrane Ca-ATPase are consistent with the extrusion kinetics attributed to the renal Ca-ATPase, but it has not been isolated, nor has its gene been cloned. Regulation and disorders of renal calcium transport are likely to involve one of the three transcellular steps, but indirect regulation by modification of the cell walls and molecules constituting the paracellular pathway cannot be excluded.

Membrane-bound (H+ + K+)-ATPase purified from hog gastric mucosa was exposed to limited papain digestion. Such treatment resulted in a rapid inhibition of the K+-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase and p-nitrophenyl phosphatase activities, with about 90% of these activities lost after 3 min incubation at 37 degrees C with 0.1 units of papain per mg of enzyme protein. Parallel to the inhibition of the enzyme activities, there was a production of a 77 kDa membrane-bound fragment containing the aspartyl phosphate residue of the phospho-intermediate. This fragment accounted for about 45% of the total enzyme protein after the 3 min papain treatment. The digestion barely affected the steady-state level of phosphorylation, allowed the aspartyl phosphate of the 77 kDa fragment to undergo the transition to the E2P form, and did not significantly alter the fraction of ADP-sensitive phosphoenzyme. The presence of KCl, however, depressed the steady-state level of phosphoenzyme formed from [gamma-32P]ATP considerably less than that of the control enzyme. With further exposure to papain the 77 kDa peptide became fragmented into a 28 kDa soluble peptide that retained the phosphorylating site. Binding of fluorescein 5'-isothiocyanate (FITC) to the native enzyme did not affect the sites of papain hydrolysis because the same peptide fragments were obtained. The FITC reaction site was also in the 28 kDa soluble peptide fragment.

Controversial views have been reported regarding the role of myosin light chain phosphorylation in the regulation of cardiac contractility (for review see. In the past, adenosine 5'-(-thio)triphosphate) (ATP gamma S) instead of ATP has frequently been used to study mechanical and biochemical consequences of myosin P-light chain (P-LC, LC-2) phosphorylation since thiophosphorylated sites are not significantly attacked by phosphatases. Unlike thiophosphorylation phosphorylation of myosin by myosin light chain kinase did neither decrease maximal (unloaded) shortening velocity of cardiac skinned fibres nor ATPase activity of cardiac myofibrils. We have accordingly investigated the phosphorylation pattern of purified cardiac myosin light chains using radioactive labeled ATP gamma S and ATP. We found that both the 28 kDa myosin light chain (LC-1) and the 18 kDa myosin light chain (LC-2, P-LC) were phosphorylated when ATP gamma S was present. In the presence of ATP, however, only LC-2 was found to be phosphorylated.

Purified plasma membranes of mouse EL4 lymphoma cells were fractionated by means of affinity chromatography on concanavalin A-Sepharose into two subfractions; one (MF1) eluted freely from the affinity column, the second (MF2) adhered specifically to Con A-Sepharose. Both membrane subfractions proved to be of plasma membrane origin, as evidenced by the following criteria. (i) The ratio of cholesterol to phospholipid was nearly identical in plasma membrane and both subfractions. (ii) When isolated plasma membranes were labelled with tritiated NaBH4, both subfractions exhibited identical specific radioactivities. (iii) After enzymatic radioiodination of the cells, the total content of labelled proteins was very similar in isolated plasma membranes and in both subfractions. (iv) Some plasma membrane marker enzymes exhibited nearly identical specific activities in plasma membranes, MF1 or MF2 including gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, 5'-nucleotidase and Mg2+-ATPase. Both subfractions exhibited characteristic differences. Thus the specific activities of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, Ca2+-ATPase and lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase were several-fold enriched in MF2 compared to MF1. SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed a different polypeptide composition of the two subfractions. Polypeptides of apparent molecular mass of 116, 95, 42, 39, 30 and 28 kDa were highly enriched in MF2, whereas MF1 contained another set of proteins, of apparent molecular mass of 70, 55 and 24 kDa. The phospholipid fatty acid composition of the subfractions proved to be different, as well, MF2 contained more saturated fatty acids than MF1. The data suggest the existence of plasma membrane domains in the plasma membranes of the mouse EL4 lymphoma cells, containing a set of polypeptides, among others membrane bound enzymes, embedded in a different phospholipid milieu.

Saccharomyces carlsbergenis vacuoles possess an ATPase activity differing from those of the well-known H(+)-ATPase of plasma membranes and mitochondria as well as from those of other phosphohydrolases. Yeast vacuolar ATPase represents an electrogenic H(+)-translocase. H(+)-ATPase was incorporated into a liposomal membrane in a functionally active form. Tonoplast ATPase did not form a phosphorylated intermediate. Purified vacuolar ATPase contained three major polypeptides with M(r) of 72, 62 and 16 kDa. S. carlsbergensis vacuoles also contained a pyrophosphatase (PPase) whose properties differed significantly from those of other vacuolar phosphohydrolases. Vacuolar membrane-bound PPase is a proton pump; its molecular mass is about 120 kDa. The enzyme molecule consists of three subunits, each of M(r) = 41 kDa. Soluble PPase from vacuolar sap has a molecular mass of about 82 kDa and consists of three subunits of M(r) = 28 kDa.
