Abnormalities have been noticed in the phospholipid and cholesterol composition of the atrophied gastrocnemius muscle of frog denervated for 1 month. Cholesterol : phospholipid molar ratios in the muscle increased on denervation. Sphingomyelin and cardiolipin fractions increased in contrast to phosphatidyl choline, phosphatidyl serine and phosphatidyl ethanolamine in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) of denervated muscle. Na-azide sensitive Ca2+ ATPase activity of the mitochondria did not alter whereas that of SR decreased on denervation. Phospholipase C digestion impaired the organelle Ca2+-ATPase activity. The above abnormalities in enzyme activities have been correlated to the changes in the lipid composition of the denervated muscle. On the basis of these changes it is discussed that the primary change in the muscle due to denervation is the change in the permeability of the membrane.

1. The thiol group of fragmented sarcoplasmic reticulum that is protected from reaction with N-ethylmaleimide by 1 mM ATP was labelled with N-ethyl-[2,3-14C2] maleimide. Autoradiography after electrophoresis of this material on dodecylsulphate/polyacrylamide gels showed that this group is located on the polypeptide chain of the ATPase. 2. The ATP-protected thiol group of fragmented sarcoplasmic reticulum has been labelled by treatment with either 1-(2,4,-dinitrophenylamino), 6-(N-maleimido) hexane or N, N'-bis(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-L-cystine. The total dinitrophenyl contents of the dinitrophenyl-vesicle conjugates found by spectrophotometry were in good agreement with the ATP-protected thiol content, especially in the case of the N,N'-bis(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-L-cystine-treated vesicles. Fluorescence-quenching titrations of anti-dinitrophenyl-antibody tryptophyl fluorescence with the dinitrophenyl-vesicle conjugates showed that not all the dinitrophenyl groups were available for combination with antibody. 3. Phospholipase C(EC 3.1.4.3) digestion of ATP-protected, N-ethylmaleimide-treated vesicles, labelled with dinitrophenyl groups using N,N'-bis(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-L-cystine, caused the dinitrophenyl groups to become completely inaccessible to anti-dinitrophenyl-antibody, although no dinitrophenyl groups were lost during the incubation. This indicates a possible crowding together of the ATPase molecules as the effective membrane area was reduced.

Treatment of human red cell membranes with pure phospholipase A2 results in a progressive inactivation of both Ca2+-dependent and (Ca2+ + K+)-dependent ATPase and phosphatase activities. When phospholipase C replaces phospholipase A2, Ca2+-dependent ATPase activity and Ca2+-dependent phosphorylation of red cell membranes are lost, while Ca2+-dependent phosphatase activity is enhanced and its apparent affinity for Ca2+ is increased about 20-fold. Activation of Ca2+-dependent phosphatase following phospholipase C treatment was not observed in sarcoplasmic reticulum preparation. Phospholipase C increases the sensitivity of the phosphatase to N-ethylmaleimide but has little effect on the kinetic parameters relating the phosphatase activity to substrate and cofactors, suggesting that no extensive structural disarrangement of the Ca2+-ATPase system has occurred after incubation with phospholipase C.

Temperature dependence of bovine brain NA,K-ATPase before and after the short-term treatment of enzyme preparations with phospholipases A, C and D is investigated. Arrhenius plots of the temperature dependence of the reaction rate catalysed by Na,K-ATPase are non-linear, they have an inflection at the region of about 20 degrees C. The treatment of the enzyme with phospholipase A makes the inflection more smooth, phospholipase D shifts the inflection by 4 degrees C to lower temperature and simultaneously activates Na,K-ATPase. Phospholipase C sharply changes the Arrhenius curve and makes it linear. The data obtained are discussed with respect to the role of phospholipids in the formation of membrane bilayer and in the regulation of Na,K-ATPase activity.

Essential hypertension is primarily hereditary. The property inherited is present in all cells but because of adaptation and differentiation it is particularly prominent in systemic vascular smooth muscle. This inherited property is manifested functionally as increased reactivity to vasoactive substances, such as (-)noradrenaline and angiotensin II. This abnormal function is present before the onset of hypertension. Vascular hypertrophy and hyperplasia are not only caused by hyperactivity of the smooth muscle and by the hypertension itself but are also trophic effect of the agonists, especially noradrenaline. The only two proteins in vascular smooth muscle which can produce both contractile and trophic effects are the guanosine triphosphate binding protein (Gs) and phospholipase C. Phospholipase C has already been demonstrated to be abnormally active in response to agonists in the spontaneously hypertensive rat and in human essential hypertension. The Gs protein is less likely to be critically abnormal since it is active in the vascular smooth muscle relaxation cascade as well as in contraction. None of the other proteins involved in vascular smooth muscle contraction or relaxation affect both contractile reactivity and cellular growth. There are many secondary effects dependent upon the phospholipase C abnormality such as calcium (Ca2+) cellular content, Ca2+ Mg2+ ATPase pump effects and possibly Ca2+ Na+ exchange. There are also many secondary effects impinging on the phospholipase C abnormality including changes in noradrenaline and angiotensin II metabolism. Present antihypertensive therapy is directed largely at secondary factors dependent upon or influencing the primary phospholipase C cascade. The path is now open for a more direct and basic diagnostic and therapeutic attack.

Endogenous activities of phospholipases A and C in Ureaplasma urealyticum were assayed in cellular fractions of exponential-phase cells. Enzymatic studies indicated that ATPase activity was localized in the plasma membrane fraction and NADH and NADPH dehydrogenase activities were localized in the cytosol fraction. Studies with purified ureaplasma membranes demonstrated that, of three serovars tested, endogenous phospholipase A1, A2, and C activities were localized in the plasma membrane. Very low levels of activity were observed in the cytosol fractions. Phospholipase A2 activity in the plasma membrane was 3- to 5-fold higher than the activity in the lysates and 60- to 300-fold higher than the activity of phospholipase A1. Phospholipase C was localized mainly in the plasma membrane, with 20% found in the cytosol fraction. The levels of activity were comparable among the three serovars. There was a significantly lower level of activity in cells from the stationary growth phase than in the exponential phase. Significant differences were observed in the phospholipase A activities among the U. urealyticum serovars 3, 4, and 8. Phospholipase A2 activity was twofold higher in serovar 8 membranes, and phospholipase A1 activity was twofold higher in serovar 3 membranes. These results demonstrate that endogenous activities of phospholipase A and C are localized primarily in the plasma membrane fraction of U. urealyticum. The specific activities in the membranes of the phospholipases varied among the three serovars. Phospholipase enzymes may function as virulence factors in U. urealyticum and may vary among the serovars.

Phospholipase C gamma 1 (PLC gamma 1) and p21ras guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase) activating protein (GAP) bind to and are phosphorylated by activated growth factor receptors. Both PLC gamma 1 and GAP contain two adjacent copies of the noncatalytic Src homology 2 (SH2) domain. The SH2 domains of PLC gamma 1 synthesized individually in bacteria formed high affinity complexes with the epidermal growth factor (EGF)- or platelet derived growth factor (PDGF)-receptors in cell lysates, and bound synergistically to activated receptors when expressed together as one bacterial protein. In vitro complex formation was dependent on prior growth factor stimulation and was competed by intracellular PLC gamma 1. Similar results were obtained for binding of GAP SH2 domains to the PDGF-receptor. The isolated SH2 domains of other signaling proteins, such as p60src and Crk, also bound activated PDGF-receptors in vitro. SH2 domains, therefore, provide a common mechanism by which enzymatically diverse regulatory proteins can physically associate with the same activated receptors and thereby couple growth factor stimulation to intracellular signal transduction pathways.

The purpose of this investigation was to study the effects of a distinct type of phospholipase C on sarcolemmal Na+-Ca2+ exchange. With this phospholipase C (Staphylococcus aureus), treatment of cardiac sarcolemmal vesicles resulted in a specific hydrolysis of membrane phosphatidylinositol. This hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol also released two proteins (110 and 36 kDa) from the sarcolemmal membrane. Phospholipase C pretreatment of the sarcolemma resulted in an unexpected stimulation of Na+-Ca2+ exchange. The Vmax of Na+-Ca2+ exchange was increased but the Km for Ca2+ was not altered. This stimulation was specific to the Na+-Ca2+ exchange pathway. ATP-dependent Ca2+ uptake was depressed after phospholipase C treatment, but passive membrane permeability to Ca2+ was unaffected. Sarcolemmal Na+,K+-ATPase activity was not altered, whereas passive Ca2+ binding was modestly decreased after phospholipase C pretreatment. The stimulation of Na+-Ca2+ exchange after phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis was greater in inside-out vesicles than in a total population of vesicles of mixed orientation. This finding suggests that the cardiac sarcolemmal Na+-Ca2+ exchanger is functionally asymmetrical. The results also suggest that membrane phosphatidylinositol is inhibitory to the Na+-Ca2+ exchanger or, alternatively, this phospholipid may anchor an endogenous inhibitory protein in the sarcolemmal membrane. The observation that a transsarcolemmal Ca2+ flux pathway may be stimulated solely by phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis independently of phosphoinositide metabolic products like inositol triphosphate is novel.

Hydrolysis of adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) and p-nitrophenyl phosphate by the hydrogen ion-transporting potassium-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase (H,K-ATPase) was investigated. Hydrolysis of ATP was studied at pH 7.4 in vesicles treated with the ionophore nigericin. The kinetic analysis showed negative cooperativity with one high affinity (Km1 = 3 microM) and one low affinity (Km2 = 208 microM) site for ATP. The rate of hydrolysis decreased at 2000 microM ATP indicating a third site for ATP. When the pH was decreased to 6.5 the experimental results followed Michaelis-Menten enzyme kinetics with one low affinity site (Km = 116 microM). Higher concentrations than 750 microM ATP were inhibitory. Proton transport was measured as accumulation of acridine orange in vesicles equilibrated with 150 mM KCl. The transport at various concentrations of ATP in the pH interval from 6.0 to 8.0 correlated well with the Hill equation with a Hill coefficient between 1.5-1.9. The concentration of ATP resulting in half-maximal transport rate (S0.5) increased from 5 microM at pH 6.0 to 420 microM at pH 8.0. At acidic pH the rate of proton transport decreased at 1000 microM ATP. The K+-stimulated p-nitrophenylphosphatase (pNPPase) activity resulted in a Hill coefficient close to 2 indicating cooperative binding of substrate. The pNPPase was noncompetitively inhibited by ATP and ADP; half-maximal inhibition was obtained at 2 and 100 microM, respectively. Phospholipase C-treated vesicles lost 80% of the pNPPase activity, but the Hill coefficient did not change. These kinetic results are used for a further development of the reaction scheme of the H,K-ATPase.

The fluorescent probe 8-(dimethylamino)naphthalene-1-sulfonylphosphatidylserine (Dns-PS) was incorporated into purified lamb kidney Na+- and K+-stimulated adenosinetriphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.3) [(Na+,K+)-ATPase] by using a purified phospholipid exchange protein. Phospholipase C was used to reduce phospholipid content. Up to 40% of the phospholipid could be hydrolyzed with only 10% inhibition of the (Na+,K+)-ATPase, but when 67% of the phospholipid was hydrolyzed, the enzyme was inhibited 53%. To examine the effect of protein on the phospholipid bilayer, the fluorescent parameters of the probe incorporated into the enzyme preparation were contrasted with the same parameters for the probe incorporated into the total lipid extract of the preparation. The polarization of fluorescence of the probe in the lipid extract was 0.118 while in the enzyme preparation it was 0.218. This reflected a decrease in fluidity of the glycerol region of the phospholipid bilayer which was mediated by the protein. This effect increased as the phospholipid content of the (Na+,K+)-ATPase preparation was reduced so that with maximal phospholipid reduction the polarization of fluorescence was 0.262. The protein caused a decrease in the transition temperature from gel to fluid states of the bilayer detected by polarization of the probe. The midpoint temperature transition of the enzyme preparation decreased from 33 degrees C when all phospholipids were present to 20 degrees C when 67% of the phospholipids were hydrolyzed. This decrease was not observed for the lipid extract of these samples. A direct correlation between the (Na+,K+)-ATPase specific activity and the polarization of fluorescence of Dns-PS was found. The reduction in phospholipid content did not affect the steady-state level of phosphorylation of the enzyme by ATP but did affect the rate of dephosphorylation which would require conformational changes of the enzymes. The data showed that the fluidity of the phospholipid bilayer can modulate the activity of the (Na+,K+)-ATPase.
