In the ATP-dependent carboxylation of biotin that is catalyzed by most biotin-dependent carboxylases, a fundamental mechanistic question is whether the ATP activates bicarbonate (via the formation of carboxyphosphate as an intermediate) or whether the ATP activates biotin (via the formation of O-phosphobiotin). We have resorted to three mechanistic tests using the biotin carboxylase subunit of acetyl-CoA carboxylase from Escherichia coli: positional isotope exchange, intermediate trapping, and 18O tracer experiments on the ATPase activity. First, no catalysis of positional isotope exchange in adenosine 5'-[( alpha, beta-18O, beta, beta-18O2]triphosphate) was observed when either biotin or bicarbonate was absent, nor was any exchange seen in the presence of both N-1-methylbiotin and bicarbonate. Second, the putative carboxyphosphate intermediate could not be trapped as its trimethyl ester, under conditions of incubation and analysis where the authentic triester was shown to be adequately stable. In the third test, however, we showed that the ATPase activity of biotin carboxylase that is seen in the absence of biotin, an activity that is known to parallel the normal carboxylase reaction when biotin is present, occurs with the transfer of an 18O label directly from [18O]bicarbonate into the product Pi. This result suggests that the bicarbonate-dependent biotin-independent ATPase reaction catalyzed by biotin carboxylase goes via carboxyphosphate and that the carboxylation of biotin itself may proceed analogously.

The purpose of this investigation was to determine which enzyme activities are true canine neutrophil plasma membrane markers. Three enzymes thought to be present on plasma membranes were chosen for study: 5'-nucleotidase, magnesium-dependent adenosine triphosphatase (Mg2+-ATPase), and leucine aminopeptidase. Both 5'-nucleotidase and Mg2+-ATPase were found to be ectoenzymes in the canine neutrophil but additional Mg2+-ATPase activity was located intracellularly. An endogenous inhibitor of 5'-nucleotidase was found in the cytosol of canine neutrophils. The specific 5'-nucleotidase inhibitor, adenosine 5'-[alpha, beta-methylene] diphosphate also inhibited the canine enzyme in intact cells. Leucine aminopeptidase was located solely in the myeloperoxidase-containing granules of the canine neutrophil. Plasma membrane, as identified by the presence of Mg2+-ATPase and 5'-nucleotidase activities, was separated from other cell organelles by Percoll-density gradient centrifugation of a 10 000 X g supernatant of nitrogen cavitated neutrophils.

The protein components required for generation of cohesive ends in vitro from circular bacteriophage P2 DNA have been purified to near homogeneity. In the presence of ATP, the purified products of P2 genes M and P together with empty phage capsids (comprised primarily of the N protein) mediate site-specific cleavage of circular P2 DNA at the cohesive end site (cos). This terminase or ter system also utilizes circular DNAs of bacteriophages P4 and 186, introducing site-specific scissions at cos sites within these molecules. The ter reaction exhibits a peculiar requirement for a circular DNA substrate. Substrate activity is greatly reduced when circular P2, P4, or 186 DNAs are linearized by restriction endonuclease hydrolysis. Furthermore, multimeric P4 DNA molecule sites are also essentially inactive in the linear form but are active in the circular state. The dependence of ter action on a circular substrate is not due to inhibition of the system by linear DNA, nor does it appear to reflect a requirement for substrate superhelicity since circular P4 DNA containing single strand scissions is subject to terminase action. The terminase reaction is supported by ATP, dATP, or beta, gamma-imido ATP, but not by other ribonucleoside triphosphates ADP, alpha, beta-methylene ATP, or beta, gamma-methylene ATP. A DNA-dependent ATPase, which hydrolyzes ATP to AMP, copurifies with the P2 P protein and is inactivated with the same kinetics as P activity upon treatment with N-ethylmaleimide. The ATPase does not display specificity for P2 DNA in vitro.

Imidazo[4,5-b]pyridines, such as AR-L57, AR-L100 and AR-L115 (Vardax), have been of interest as inotropic agents for the management of congestive heart failure. Although it has been presumed that their activities derive from inhibition of phosphodiesterase, it is now apparent that similar structural analogs possess surprisingly diverse pharmacologies and mechanisms of action. AR-L100 increased the contractile state of cat papillary muscles in a concentration-dependent manner; these effects were not blocked by either alpha, beta or H2-receptor antagonists. To determine whether the contractile responses resulted from intracellular cyclic AMP accumulation, the cardiotonic actions of AR-L100 were assessed in the presence of carbachol. Muscarinic receptor stimulation did not alter inotropic responses to AR-L100; in addition, AR-L100 did not potentiate the inotropic actions of isoproterenol. These results imply that cyclic AMP is not involved in the cardiac responses to this agent. AR-L100 inhibited Na+,K+-adenosine triphosphatase activity of either canine kidney or cardiac sarcolemmal vesicles. Inhibition of this enzyme paralleled inotropic responses in vitro; that is, in papillary muscle, the EC50 for contractility was 11.5 microM compared with an IC50 for inhibition of Na+,K+-adenosine triphosphatase of 8 microM. By contrast, the IC50 for inhibition of phosphodiesterase (isozyme III) was 280 microM. AR-L100 also inhibited sodium pump activity in intact cat papillary muscles. Concentrations of 30 and 100 microM AR-L100 resulted in 13 and 45% decreases in ouabain-sensitive 86Rb+ uptake determined at 3 Hz. In anesthetized dogs, AR-L100 increased contractility but did not alter either heart rate or mean arterial blood pressure.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The Mg(2+)- and Ca(2+)-stimulated ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3; ATP phosphohydrolase) (bacterial coupling factor) was purified from two strains of E. coli by two different procedures: (a) method of Nelson, Kanner, and Gutnick [Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. USA (1974) 71, 2720-2724] and (b) a modified procedure described in this paper. The ATPase purified from E. coli K12 (lambda) by the first procedure had 4 subunits (alpha, beta, gamma, and epsilon). It did not bind to a deficient membrane, nor did it reconstitute ATP-driven transhydrogenase activity. Our modified procedure (b) yielded 5 subunits (alpha, beta, gamma, delta, and epsilon). This ATPase could bind to a deficient membrane and reconstitute ATP-driven transhydrogenase. This finding suggests that the delta subunit is required for the reaction with the membrane. The molecular weight of the 4-subunit ATPase was significantly lower than that of the 5-subunit ATPase, as judged by equilibrium centrifugation. The specific ATPase activities of both preparations were about the same. These two procedures were also applied to E. coli ML308-225.

When the bovine mitochondrial F1-ATPase is inactivated with dicyclohexyl[14C]carbodiimide and then gel-filtered, from 2 to 3 g atoms of 14C are incorporated/mol of enzyme. Prior inactivation of the enzyme by the modification of an essential tyrosine residue with 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzofurazan, a reaction that can be reversed by thiols, does not affect the irreversible inactivation of the ATPase by dicyclohexyl[14C]carbodiimide. During the large scale modification of the F1-ATPase by dicyclohexyl[14C]carbodiimide which led to 70% inactivation, 1.9 g atoms of 14C were incorporated/mol of enzyme. Isolation of the alpha, beta, and gamma subunits from this large scale inactivation revealed that the gram atoms of 14C bound per mol of each of the subunits was: alpha, 0.04; beta, 0.56; and gamma, 0.04. The majority of the radioactivity in a cyanogen bromide digest of the 14C-labeled beta subunit was isolated in a fragment that has the following amino acid sequence: Glu-Leu-Ile-Asn-Asn-Val-Ala-Lys-Ala-His-Gly-Gly-Tyr-Ser-Val-Phe-Ala-Gly-Val-Gly -Glu-Arg-Thr-Arg-Glu-Gly-Asn-Asp-Leu-Tyr-Glu*-His-Met; where Glu* represents the N gamma-glutamyl derivative of dicyclohexyl[14C]urea.

The activity of plasma membrane marker enzymes which are involved in purine metabolism (5'-nucleotidase, alkaline 5'-nucleotide phosphodiesterase), in active ion transport (Na-K-Mg-adenosine triphosphatase, ouabain-sensitive Na-K-adenosine triphosphatase), in aminoacid transport (gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase), and in basic physiologic functions (alkaline phosphomonoesterase) were assayed in mononuclear cells isolated from peripheral blood of normal donors and of patients with primary immunodeficiency. Irrespective of the clinical classification of the immunodeficiency, the cells of patients were characterized by significantly diminished 5'-nucleotidase and to a certain extent by lower alkaline phosphomonoesterase activities. Average activity levels of other enzymes were similar in cells of patients and controls, but scattering was more pronounced in the first group. Determination of substrate affinity revealed different kinetic properties of 5'-nucleotidase in cells from patients and normal donors; however, the extent of inhibition by beta-glycerophosphate or alpha, beta-adenosine-methylene diphosphate was comparable for both types of cells. The presence of inhibitory compounds in patients' serum was excluded by mixing experiments. When activities of the various plasma-membrane-associated enzymes were compared with each other, significant correlations emerged in normal lymphocytes. Most of these correlations were absent in cell membranes of immunodeficient patients. The findings indicate that the plasma membrane of lymphocytes from patients with immunodeficiency may be characterized by an altered distribution of enzymatic constituents.

Five chromatographically distinct DNA-dependent ATPase activities have been identified in high salt-detergent extracts of the Novikoff hepatoma. One of these, ATPase III, has been purified to apparent homogeneity as judged by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and has a specific activity of 12 mumol of ATP hydrolyzed min-1 (mg of protein)-1. The enzyme, a dimer of Mr 65000 subunits, has a sedimentation coefficient of 7.0 S in both high salt and low salt, a Stokes radius of 43 A, and a frictional coefficient of 1.31. In the presence of Mg2+ ion and a polynucleotide effector, the enzyme catalyzes hydrolysis of ATP or dATP to a diphosphate with a Km of 206 microM and 110 microM, respectively, for the two substrates. Although single-stranded effectors are preferred, the enzyme has significant activity with double-stranded effectors. The Km for effector is 0.4 microM (nucleotide). The analogues adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (ATP gamma S), dideoxyadenosine triphosphate (ddATP), and adenosine 5'-(alpha, beta-methylenetriphosphate) (alpha, beta-Me-ATP) are competitive inhibitors of the enzyme while adenosine tetraphosphate (ATP-P), 8-bromoadenosine 5'-triphosphate (8-Br-ATP), 5'-adenylyl imidodiphosphate (AMP-PNP), and adenosine 5'-(beta, gamma-methylenetriphosphate) (beta, gamma-Me-ATP) do not inhibit. The enzyme is insensitive to nalidixic acid, novobiocin, and berenil but is sensitive to N-ethylmaleimide. ATPase III is capable of stimulating DNA polymerase beta on duplex DNA, but this effect is abolished in the presence of ATP gamma S. Polymerase stimulation is further enhanced in the presence of a single-stranded DNA-binding protein. These data suggest that ATPase III may play a role in DNA repair.

The Mn2+-dependent endonuclease activity associated with the avian myeloblastosis virus RNA-directed DNA polymerase has been shown to be activated by ATP in the presence of Mg2+. In the presence of Mn2+ the endonucleolytic activity was stimulated about 3-fold by the addition of ATP. The earlier identified Mr = 40,000 Friend murine leukemia virus (F-MuLV)-associated endonuclease which functions in the presence of both Mg2+ and Mn2+ has also been shown to be similarly stimulated by ATP. For both endonuclease activities stimulation was only observed at ATP concentrations above 0.5 mM, and it did not increase upon elevating the ATP concentration above 2.5 mM. ADP and dATP also stimulated both activities, although not to the same extent as ATP. GTP had no apparent effect and AMP seemed to inhibit both activities. The effect ATP analogs had on the F-MuLV associated endonuclease activity could suggest that the endonuclease reaction in the presence of ATP might involve the cleavage of beta-gamma phosphate bonds in ATP. Neither adenyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate nor (beta, gamma-methylene)adenosine 5'-triphosphate stimulated the activity, whereas significant stimulation was observed in the presence of (alpha, beta-methylene)adenosine 5'-triphosphate. Although no ATPase activity could be detected in the purified F-MuLV endonuclease preparation, the data do not exclude the possibility that ATP may be cleaved in amounts which are equivalent to the number of nicks introduced into DNA by the virus-associated endonuclease. In the presence of ATP and Mg2+ the F-MuLV-associated endonuclease nicked both supercoiled and linear DNA duplexes extensively, although the former was nicked more readily than the latter. Single-stranded DNA functioned poorly as a substrate. The nicks introduced by the enzyme contained a 5'-phosphoryl terminus and a 3'-hydroxyl group.
