To distinguish ligand-induced structural states of the (Na+--K+)-ATPase, the purified membrane-bound enzyme isolated from rat kidneys was digested with trypsin in the presence of various combinations of Na+, K+, Mg++ and ATP. It was found that first the large and then the small polypeptide chain of the (Na+--K+)-ATPase was degraded, indicating that the lysine and arginine residues of the large chain are more exposed than are those of the small one. The (Na+--K+)-ATPase activity was inactivated in parallel with the degradation of the large polypeptide chain. After the degradation of the large polypeptide chain, about 75% of the (Na+--K+)-ATPase protein remained bound to the membrane, demonstrating that the split protein segments were only partially released. It was found that the combinations of ATP, Mg++, Na+ and K+ present during trypsin digestion influenced the time course and degree of degradation of the (Na+--K+)-ATPase protein. The degradations of the large and the small polypeptide chain were affected in parallel. Thus, certain ATP and ligand combinations influenced neither the degradation of the large nor the degradation of the small polypeptide chain, whereas by other combinations of ATP and ligands the degree of susceptibility of both polypeptide chains to trypsin was equally increased or reduced. In the absence of ATP the time course of trypsin digestion of the (Na+--K+)-ATPase was the same, whether Na+ or K+ was present. With low ATP concentrations (e.g., 0.1 mM), however, binding of Na+ or K+ led to different degradation patterns of the enzyme. If a high concentration of ATP (e.g. 10 mM) was present, Na+ and K+ also influenced the degradation pattern of the (Na+--K+)-ATPase, but differentially compared to that at low ATP concentrations, since the effects of Na+ and K+ were reversed. Furthermore, it was found that the degradation of the small chain was only influenced by certain combinations of ATP, Mg++, Na+ and K+ if the large chain was intact when the ligands were added to the enzyme. The described results demonstrate structural alterations of the (Na+--K+)-ATPase complex which are supposed to include a synchronous protrusion or retraction of both (Na+--K+)-ATPase subunits. The data further suggest that ATP and other ligands primarily alter the structure of the large (Na+--K+)-ATPase subunit. This structural alteration is presumed to lead to a synchronous movement of the small subunit of the enzyme. The structural state of the (Na+--K+)-ATPase is regulated by binding of Na+ or K+ to the enzyme-ATP complex. The effects of Na+ and K+ on the (Na+--K+)-ATPase structure are modulated by the ATP binding to "high affinity" and to "low affinity" ATP binding sites.

We have isolated a new DNA-dependent ATPase from E. coli. The enzyme has been purified to greater than 90% purity. It appears to be composed of two identical polypeptide chains of molecular weight 20,000. The enzyme catalyzed the hydrolysis of ATP in the presence, but not in the absence, of single-stranded DNA. Double-stranded DNA is not a cofactor. The products of hydrolysis are ADP and Pi. The enzyme also catalyzed strand separation of duplex DNA in the presence of ATP and E. coli DNA binding protein. Two E. coli proteins capable of promoting strand separation have been reported previously and have been termed helicase I and II (Abdel-Monem, M., and Hoffmann-Berling, H. (1977) Eur. J. Biochem. 79, 33-38). Accordingly, this protein is named helicase III.

The nucleoside triphosphatase activities of the nuclear envelopes from rat liver, pig liver and simian-virus-40-transformed mouse-embryo 3T3 cells were shown to exhibit similar parperties. All three preparations hydrolyse ATP, 2'-dATP, 3'-dATP, GTP, CTP and UTP in the presence of Mg2+, Ca2+, Mn2+ and Co2+ with a pH optimum of 8.0, are sensitive to inhibition by mercurials, arsenicals, quercetin, proflavin and adenosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate and are partially inactivated by exposure to high ionic strength. The kinetic behaviour is similar for all substrates irrespective of the source of material. The typical Eadie-Hofstee plot, which is concave upwards at pH 8.0 when the ionic strength is 20mM, becomes linear when the pH is increased to 8.5 or the ionic strength to 160mM. The overall evidence, particularly the labelling of only one polypeptide by [gamma-32P]ATP, suggests that under the conditions of preparation and assay used only one class of nucleoside triphosphatase active sites is detectable in nuclear envelopes. The importance of these results for an understanding of the role of the enzyme in vivo is discussed.

Proteins of apparent molecular weights between 10 000 and 250 000 could be solubilized from guinea pig epidermis using a Tris/sucrose/ATP buffer. When the ionic concentration of the solubilized extract was made 75 mM with respect to KCl and 2 mM with respect to MgCl2, a protein complex precipitated which on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis resolved into bands corresponding in migration to myosin, actin and a number of low molecular weight proteins. Myosin was dissociated from the complex with 0.6 M KI and purified by gel filtration chromatography on an agarose column. The purified epidermal myosin fraction contained a polypeptide of 200 000 molecular weight andtwo low molecular weight polypeptides of 16 500 and 13 000. The amino acid composition of the epidermal myosin heavy chain was similar to that of muscle myosin. At high ionic strength epidermal myosin had high specific (K+ + Ca2+)- and (K+ + EDTA)-ATPase activities and low specific (K+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity. The pH activity curves of the (K+ + Ca2+)- and (K+ + EDTA)-ATPase were different. ATP was hydrolyzed faster than other nucleoside triphosphates. At low ionic strength, the (K+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity of epidermal myosin was stimulated two fold by skeletal muscle actin. The myosin formed bipolar filaments in 50 mM KCl in the presence of 5 mM Mg2+.

We have studied the composition of ATP-driven proton pumps from bovine heart mitochondria and have reconstituted the oligomycin-sensitive ATPase complex from its individual components. The complex contains 9 to 10 subunits of which 5 are assembled in the soluble F1 protein, 2 are required for the attachment of F1 to the membrane and 2 form the proton channel within the membrane. With the help of information obtained from studies of the chloroplast and the bacterial proton pumps, we can tentatively assign a function to each of the subunits of the pump. The position of F1 outside of the membrane seen in electron micrographs of negatively stained preparations, does not appear to be an artifact. Evidence from immunological studies, chemical derivatizations as well as further electron microscopy (positive staining and freeze-etching), support this statement. We describe in this paper a 28 000-dalton polypeptide which has been isolated from the mitochondria membrane and is required for the reconstitution of oligomycin-sensitive ATPase and 32Pi-ATP exchange activity. We propose a mechanism of action of the proton pump in which the key energy-yielding reaction is the binding of Mg2+ to the protein. The function of the proton gradient is to displace Mg2+ from this site to permit cyclic repetition of the binding process. Essential for this scheme is the cyclic opening and closing of the proton channel. We have outlined our present approaches to test this hypothesis.

Ca-2+-ATPase purified from sarcoplasmic reticulum of rabbit muscle forms a phsophoeznyme when exposed to inorganic phosphate in the presence of Mg-2+. On addition of ADP and Ca-2+ virtually all of the phosphate bound to the enzyme is transferred to form ATP. It has been shown previously and confirmed by us that (a) the purified ATPase contains one major polypeptide and about 30% phospholipids; (b) on removal of residual detergent by passage through Sephadex the enzyme forms vesicular membranes; and (c) these vesicles are leaky and incapable of accumulating Ca-2+. Our findings therefore indicate that we have observed ATP generation from ADP and P-i without the formation of an ion gradient across a membrane. We propose that the energy derived from ion-protein interaction drives the formation of ATP.

1. Mitochondrial membrane of brown adipose tissue compared to that of liver possesses a very high activity of oxidative enzymes but a low activity of ATPase. 2. The polypeptide composition of the mitochondrial membranes proves that the above differences in enzyme activities are due to increased content of oxidative enzymes and decreased content of ATPase in brown adipose tissue. 3. The inhibition of ATPase of brown adipose tissue mitochondria by aurovertin, oligomycin and DCCD indicates modified proportions between the components of the ATPase complex. 4. The organization of brown adipose tissue mitochondrial membrane in relation to its thermogenic function is discussed.

Extracts of the DNA initiation-defective mutant Escherichia coli dnaB252 are inactive in a dnaB complementation assay but yield a ribonucleoside triphosphatase activity of native molecular weight of about 270,000 (60,000-dalton polypeptide as subunit) that can be inactivated by antibody to dnaB. On the other hand, extracts of a dnaB252(P1 bac) lysogen, in which the dnaB mutation is suppressed in vivo by the constitutive expression of the P1 dnaB analog (ban protein), are active in dnaB complementation and the activity is also sensitive to dnaB antibody. Upon further purification two proteins (with polypeptide molecular weights of 60,000 and 56,000, respectively) are found associated with each other (native molecular weight about 270,000). The larger and the smaller protein are tentatively identified as the dnaB and P1 ban protein. It is suggested that suppression of the dnaB mutation by prophage P1 bac is accomplished by a stabilization of dnaB252 by P1 ban subunit molecules in a heteromultimer.

The T4 bacteriophage gene 41 protein is known from genetic analysis to be essential for phage DNA replication in vivo. It became possible to monitor the activity of this protein during purification after development of an "in vitro complementation assay," which measures its stimulation of DNA synthesis in a concentrated crude lysate prepared from Escherichia coli cells infected with a T4 bacteriophage mutant in gene 41 (L. Moran and B. Alberts, manuscript in preparation). In this report, a purification procedure involving three chromatographic steps is described which reproducibly yields a 90% homogeneous preparation of this rather unstable protein. The major polypeptide chain present (58,000 daltons) is shown to cosediment with a DNA-dependent GTPase (and ATPase) activity, and to induce extensive in vitro DNA synthesis on both single- and double-stranded DNA templates when incubated with our preparations of five other purified T4 DNA replication proteins (plus deoxyribonucleoside and ribonucleoside triphosphates).

Ethanol and acetaldehyde, alone or in combination, at physiologic concentrations, significantly inhibit mitochondrial protein synthesis in vitro. Mitochondria from rats chronically fed ethanol also display a reduced rate of mitochondrial protein synthesis in vitro. This effect is further aggravated by addition of ethanol to the incubation medium. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis of mitochondria fractionated with acetic acid-lubrol, which were incubated in the presence of ethanol or acetaldehyde, revealed a modest over-all decrease in labeling. However, a polypeptide fraction in the molecular weight range of 36,000 to 40,000 was conspicuously decreased. This range includes subunits of cytochrome oxidase, cytochrome b, and ATPase. Liver mitochondria from rats fed ethanol chronically showed a comparable decrease in the 36,000- to 40,000-molecular weight peak after incubation with radioactive leucine in vitro and fractionation with acetic acid-lubrol. Similar results were obtained when mitochondrial protein synthesis was determined in vivo in chronically treated rats. The data suggest that chronic ethanol consumption interferes with mitochondrial membrane biogenesis and that several products are more sensitive to this effect than others.
