By trypsin treatment of highly purified ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3) from Micrococcus sp. ATCC 398E, two enzyme modifications have been obtained. (i) ATPase Ta, which has about the same activity as untreated ATPase. (ii) A protein complex Ti, which lacks ATPase activity, but nevertheless binds ATP as shown by affinity chromatography. Trypsin primarily shortens the alpha-chains of the "native" enzyme to alpha-chains and removes the gamma-subunit, thus yielding ATPase Ta. The formation of the protein complex Ti appears to be due to additional cleavage of one alpha-chain into at least two more fractions.

Oligomycin reduced the fluorescence intensity of an N-(p-(2-benzimidazoly)phenyl) maleimide (BIPM) probe at Cys-964 of the alpha-chain of pig kidney Na+,K(+)-ATPase with increase in the concentration of Na+ with a Hill coefficient of nh = 0.77 with Kh = 231 mM. The maximum fluorescence decrease was around 80% of the value observed after accumulation of ADP-sensitive phosphoenzyme (E1P) in the presence of 2 M Na+. The addition of Mg2+ and ATP with Na+ or choline chloride to give the same final ligand concentration to the Na(+)-enzyme-oligomycin complex formed with 16 mM Na+ + 1,984 mM choline chloride or 2 M Na+ induced rapid phosphorylation (20 or 21/s) and slower fluorescence decrease (12.1 +/- 1.2 or 10.1 +/- 3.2/s). These additions to the Na(+)-enzyme complex formed under the former or the latter conditions induced slow phosphorylation (13/s) prior to a much slower fluorescence decrease (3.4 +/- 0.3 or 8.6 +/- 0.7/s). The addition of Ca2+ and ATP to these enzyme complexes induced rapid fluorescence changes (21-11/s) followed by one order of magnitude slower rates of phosphorylation (1.5-1.3 s). These data suggest that the decrease in BIPM fluorescence induced by ATP with Ca2+ or with Mg2+, reflects the change of the Na+ binding state before or after the formation of E1P, respectively.

Lanthanides are useful probes in Ca2+ binding proteins, including sarcoplasmic reticulum (Ca2+,Mg2+)-ATPase. Here, we report that lanthanides compete with Rb+ and Na+ for occlusion in renal (Na+,K+)-ATPase. The lanthanides appear to bind at a single site and act as competitive antagonists, without themselves becoming occluded. All lanthanides tested are effective with the order of potencies Pr greater than Nd greater than La greater than Eu greater than Tb greater than Ho greater than Er, but differences are small. The presence of Mg2+ ions does not affect competition of La3+ with Na+ or K+ suggesting that the effects are not exerted via divalent metal sites. Lanthanides compete with Rb+ and Na+ in membranes digested with trypsin so as to produce 19-kDa and smaller fragments of the alpha-chain (Karlish, S.J.D., Goldshleger, R., and Stein, W. D. (1990) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 87, 4566-4570), also suggestive of a direct interaction of lanthanides with Na+ and K+ sites. Effects of lanthanides on conformational changes of fluorescein-labeled (Na+,K+)-ATPase are Na(+)-like. They stabilize the E1 state and compete with K+ ions. The Ki for La3+ is 0.445 microM. The apparent affinity in fluorescence assays is proportional to enzyme concentration (Ki = 32.4*[protein] + 0.445 microM La3+), suggesting that lanthanides are also bound nonspecifically (possibly to phospholipids). Direct assays confirm that Tb3+ binding is nonspecific. Measurements of the rate of various conformational transitions show that the rate of E2(K+)----E1(X) (X = Na+ or La3+) is significantly inhibited by La3+ compared to Na+. La3+ ions also slightly accelerate the rate of the E1----E2(K+) conformational transition. The dissociation rate of La3+ has been measured by monitoring the rate of E1(La3+)----E2(K+). It is 1.741 s-1 at 25 degrees C. Based on this value, it is unlikely that La3+ ions are stably occluded, consistent with the conclusion from occlusion experiments. In the future, lanthanides bound to monovalent cation sites with high affinity may become useful probes for location and characterization of sites, although it will be necessary to take into account the large amount of nonspecific binding.

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 development of tension in platelet-rich clots is a manifestation of fibrin polymer binding to platelets as well as platelet contractile activity. Arg-Gly-Asp(RGD)-containing peptides of fibrinogen alpha-chain and gamma-400-411 of fibrinogen gamma chain increased clot tension considerably, especially when it developed under isometric conditions. Morphometry revealed increased confluence of oriented fibrin and platelet aggregates. Monoclonal antibodies directed against different epitopes on the glycoprotein IIb-IIIa complex had varying effects on clot tension development. Monoclonal antibodies A2A9 and 7E3 inhibited clot tension while T10 and 10E5 increased it. Since neither peptides nor antibodies affected the platelet actomyosin ATPase activity, their effect on tension must reflect the interaction between platelets and polymerizing fibrin. We conclude that gamma-400-411 and RGD-peptides increase platelet-polymerizing fibrin interaction. This suggests that clot tension requires a platelet receptor for polymerizing fibrin, which is different from the fibrinogen receptor domain required for aggregation. The results with the monoclonal antibodies support this hypothesis.

The contractile properties of single rat cardiac cells isolated from normal and hypertrophied right ventricles have been investigated. These have been correlated with the isoenzyme composition of the whole ventricle. Right cardiac hypertrophy was induced by injecting rats with monocrotaline, an alkaloid which induces severe pulmonary hypertension. Ca2+ ATPase activity and myosin alpha-chain percentage were decreased in the hypertrophied right ventricle as compared with that of control rats. The contraction amplitude and speed of shortening of the isolated cells were measured using an inverted microscope, video camera, and edge detection device. Cells from the hypertrophied ventricle showed a significantly decreased contraction amplitude and speed of shortening in maximally activating concentrations of isoprenaline. A statistically significant correlation existed between myosin alpha-chain percentage and both contraction amplitude and speed of shortening in maximum isoprenaline. This was true when all cells studied were included, as well as within the hypertrophy group. A similar, although not always statistically significant, correlation was observed when cells were maximally activated with calcium. These results suggest that changes in isomyosin pattern that occur in cardiac hypertrophy produce alterations in contraction amplitude and speed of shortening which can be detected in single cells isolated from the hypertrophied ventricles. Isolated cells appear to give responses representative of the function of the whole heart.

Na+,K+-ATPase from pig kidney was sequentially modified with two different sulfhydryl fluorescent reagents, N-[p-(2-benzimidazolyl)phenyl]maleimide (BIPM) and N-[7-dimethylamino 4-coumarinyl]maleimide (DACM). The preparation thus obtained contained 3 and 2 moles of each residue in the alpha-chain. When the BIPM residues were excited at 313 nm, ouabain sensitive decrease and increase in the fluorescence intensity at not only 365 nm (BIPM fluorescence) but also 455 nm (DACM fluorescence) were observed, which were dependent on the amounts of reaction intermediates accumulated. When DACM residues were excited directly at 390 nm, only the decrease in the fluorescence intensity was observed irrespective of the intermediates accumulated. The data suggest that at least two DACM residues which differently change their microenvironments during ouabain sensitive Na+,K+-ATPase reaction are present. One is located close enough and the other is located too far to accept the energy from BIPM residue(s) in the three dimensional structure of Na+,K+-ATPase. Addition of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) remarkably inhibited the energy transfer from BIPM to DACM residues. Limited proteolysis suggested that BIPM residues are located mainly in the peptides which are assumed to contain ATP binding sites and that DACM residues are located near the phosphorylation sites.

Na+, K+-ATPase is a heterodimeric enzyme responsible for the active maintenance of sodium and potassium gradients across the plasma membrane. Recently, cDNAs for several tissue-specific isoforms of the larger catalytic alpha-subunit and the smaller beta-subunit have been cloned. We have hybridized rat brain and human kidney cDNA probes, as well as human genomic isoform-specific DNA fragments, to Southern filters containing panels of rodent X human somatic cell hybrid lines. The results obtained have allowed us to assign the loci for the ubiquitously expressed alpha-chain (ATP1A1) to human chromosome 1, region 1p21----cen, and for the alpha 2 isoform that predominates in neural and muscle tissues (ATP1A2) to chromosome 1, region cen----q32. A common PstI RFLP was detected with the ATP1A2 probe. The alpha 3 gene, which is expressed primarily in neural tissues (ATP1A3), was assigned to human chromosome 19. A fourth alpha gene of unknown function (alpha D) that was isolated by molecular cloning (ATP1AL1) was mapped to chromosome 13. Although evidence to date had suggested a single gene for the beta-subunit, we found hybridizing restriction fragments derived from two different human chromosomes. On the basis of knowledge of conserved linkage groups on human and murine chromosomes, we propose that the coding gene ATP 1B is located on the long arm of human chromosome 1 and that the sequence on human chromosome 4 (ATP 1BL1) is either a related gene or a pseudogene.

When outer-row dynein arms are extracted from Chlamydomonas flagellar axonemes, they dissociate into two ATPase complexes with sedimentation coefficients of 12S and 18S. We immunized mice with 18S dynein and generated a library of monoclonal antibodies against the polypeptides in this complex. Antibodies were selected which specifically recognize the 18S alpha- and beta-heavy chains and the 83,000-dalton and 70,000-dalton intermediate chains. These antibodies were isolated and characterized for their ability to recognize determinants on both denatured antigens and native 18S dynein; 18S dynein was dissociated in stepwise fashion into smaller aggregates with ionic and nonionic detergents and the resulting subcomplexes were isolated by precipitation with specific monoclonal antibodies. The smallest aggregates isolated were heterodimers between the alpha-chain and a 16,000-dalton light chain and between the two intermediate chains. Additional close associations of the beta-heavy chain with an 18,000-dalton light chain and 70,000-dalton intermediate chain, and a weaker interaction between the intermediate chain heterodimer and light chains of 21,000 daltons and 12,500 daltons, were also observed. We present a model of 18S dynein substructure based upon this information.

Na+,K+-ATPase from pig kidney was specifically modified with a sulfhydryl fluorescent reagent, N-[p-(2-benzimidazolyl)phenyl]maleimide (BIPM), by pretreatment of N-ethylmaleimide. The preparation thus obtained retained 100% of initial Na+,K+-ATPase activity and contained 1 BIPM residue/alpha-chain, and it showed almost 2-fold larger fluorescence changes accompanying ATP hydrolysis than the previous preparations which retained 60% of initial activity and contained 3-4 BIPM residues/alpha-chain (Taniguchi, K., Suzuki, K., and Iida, S. (1982) J. Biol. Chem. 257, 10659-10667). Extensive trypsin (Sigma type I) treatment of the new preparation produced mainly two different fluorescent peptide peaks in both ion-exchange and reverse-phase chromatography. Amino acid sequence analysis of both peptides showed that they had the same common sequence, Ser-Tyr-X-Pro-Gly-Met-Gly-Val, except that the larger one contained Ala-Leu next to the Val residue. From the comparison of the amino acid sequence deduced from cDNA from sheep kidney (Shull, G. E., Schwartz, A., and Lingrel, J. B. (1985) Nature 316, 691-695), X was shown to correspond to Cys-964 of the alpha-chain in Na+,K+-ATPase. The data suggest that the microenvironment of the BIPM residue covalently bound to the sulfhydryl group of Cys-964 changes accompanying sequential appearance of reaction intermediates of Na+,K+-ATPase.
