Some of the characteristics of the pyrophosphatase and ATPase activities studied in isolated cartilage matrix vesicles were found to be similar to those already reported for the solubilized and purified bone alkaline phosphatase. Thus, the pH optimum of the pyrophosphatase activity responded similarly to changes in the concentration of Mg2+, Ca2+, and PPi. Further, the ATPase activity was not activated by Ca2+ in the presence of an optimal Mg2+ concentration. It is proposed that a function of the alkaline phosphatase of matrix vesicles in vivo is to hydrolyze the substrates PPi, ADP, and ATP, which are known inhibitors of calcium phosphate precipitation.

An ATPase stimulated by HCO-3ions and other oxybases and inhibited by SCN- has been found in main excretory duct of rat submaxillary gland, a tissue, capable of actively secreting HCO-3ions. No such ATPase was found in the rabbit duct, which normally does not secrete HCO-3. The HCO-3ATPase was localized in the plasma membrane fraction of the homogenate, as evidenced by the marker 5'nucleotidase. The activities of the HCO-3ATPase increased in metabolic alkalosis and decreased in metabolic acidosis in parallel to secretion of HCO-3 and K+ ions by the rat salivary duct epithelium. In renal cortex tissue, where HCO-3 is actively reabsorbed respectively H+ is secreted, there was also found a parallel change in the activity of the HCO-3ATPase and the rate of active H+ secretion. These findings provide further evidence that the membrane-bound HCO-3ATPase is involved in active H+/HCO-3 transport. The HCO-3ATPase is not only stimulated by HCO-3 but also by other non transportable oxybases, a finding which indicates H+ rather than HCO-3 being the actively transported component of the buffer system. Small concentrations of K+ ions decrease the Km for HCO-3 and thus yield stimulation of the HCO-3-ATPase. Thport changing in parallel with that of H+/HCO-3 may be taken as indicative for a coupled K+-H+-exchange mechanism to which the HCO-3ATPase is linked.

Myosin was extracted and partially purified from the head portion of spermatozoa of the starfish, Asterias amurensis. The sperm myosin showed a specific Ca2+-activated ATPase [EC 3.6.1.3] activity of 0.2 mumoles Pi/min/mg at high ionic strength and pH 6.5. It resembled egg myosin in forming thick filaments, becoming attached to actin filaments. subunit composition, and serological properties.

Differential and density gradient centrifugation were used to prepare a vesicular membrane fraction from hog gastric mucosa enriched 17-fold with respect to cation-activated ATPase and 5'-AMPase. Fractionation of the gradient material by free flow electrophoresis resulted in a fraction 35-fold enriched in cation-activated ATPase and essentially free of 5'-AMPase and Mg2+ATPase. The addition of ATP to either fraction resulted in H+ uptake and Rb+ efflux. The ionophoric and osmotic sensitivity showed that these ion movements were due to transport rather than binding. The cation selectivity sequences, substrate specificities and action of inhibitors indicated that the transport was a function of K+ATPase activity. The characteristics of the ATP-dependent enhancement of SCN- uptake and 8-anilinonapthalene-1-sulfonate fluorescence in the presence of valinomycin and the action of ionophores and lipid-permeable ions suggested that the energy dependent K+:H+ exchange was effectively nonelectrogenic. Thus these vesicles contain a nonelectrogenic (H+ + K+)-ATPase, hence acid secretion by the stomach is probably due to an ATP-dependent H+ + K+ exchange.

1. The specific activity of mitochondrial ATPase (adenosine triphosphatase) in extracts of Schizosaccharomyces pombe decreased 2.5-fold as the glucose concentration in the growth medium decreased from 50mM to 15mM. 2. During the late exponential phase of growth, ATPase activity doubled. 3. Sensitivity to oligomycin and Dio-9 as measured by values for I50(mug of inhibitor/mg of protein giving 50% inhibition) at pH 6.8 increased sixfold and ninefold respectively during the initial decrease in ATPase activity, and this degree of sensitivity was maintained for the remainder of the growth cycle. 4. Increased sensitivity to NN'-dicyclohexylcarbodi-imide, triethyltin and venturicidin was also observed during the early stage of glucose de-repression. 5. Smaller increases in sensitivity to efrapeptin, aurovertin, 7-chloro-4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diaz-le, quercetin and spegazzinine also occurred. 6. The ATPase of glycerol-grown cells was less sensitive to inhibitors than that of glucose-repressed cells; change in values for I50 were not so marked during the growth cycle of cells growing with glycerol. 7. When submitochondrial particles from glycerol-grown cells were tested by passage through Sephadex G-50, a fourfold increase in activity was accompanied by increased inhibitor resistance. 8. Gel filtration of submitochondrial particles from glucose-de-repressed cells gave similar results, whereas loss of ATPase occurred in submitochondrial particles from glucose-repressed cells. 9. It is proposed that alterations in sensitivity to inhibitors at different stages of glucose derepression may be partly controlled by a naturally occuring inhibitor of ATPase. 10. The inhibitors tested may be classififed into two groups on the basis of alterations of sensitivity of the ATPase during physiological modification: (a) oligomycin, Dio-9, NN'-dicyclohexylcarbodi-imide, venturicidin and triethyltin, and (b) efrapeptin, aurovertin, 7-chloro-4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole, quercetin and spegazzinine.

A highly purified membrane fraction was derived from hog gastric mucosa by a combination of differential and density gradient centrifugation and free flow electrophoresis. This final fraction was 35-fold enriched with respect to cation activated ouabain-insensitive ATPase. Antibody against this fraction was shown to be bound to the luminal surface of the gastric glands. The addition of ATP to this fraction or the density gradient fraction resulted in H+ uptake into an osmotically sensitive space. The apparent Km for ATP was 1.7-10(-4) M in the absence of a K+ gradient similar to that found for ATPase activity. The reaction is specific for ATP and requires cation in the sequence K+ greater than Rb+ greater than Cs+ greater than Na+ greater than Li+ and inhibited by ATPase inhibitors such as N,N'-dicylclohexyl-carbodiimide. Maximal H+ uptake occurs with an outward K+ gradient but the minimal apparent KA is found in the absence of a K+ gradient. The pH optimum for H+ uptake is between 5.8 and 6.2 which corresponds to the pH range for phosphroylation of the enzyme, but is considerably less than the pH maximum of the K+ dependent dephosphorylation. In the presence of an inward K+ gradient, protonophores such as tetrachlorsalicylanilide only partially abolish the H+ gradient but valinomycin dissipates 75% of the gradient, and nigericin abolishes the gradient. The vesicles therefore have a low K+ conductance but a measurable H+ conductance, hence a K+ gradient can produce an H+ gradient in the presence of valinomycin. The uptake and spontaneous leak of H+ are temperature sensitive with a similar transition temperature. Ultraviolet irradiation inactivates ATPase and proton transport at the same rate, approximately at twice the rate of p-nitrophenylphosphatase inactivation. It is concluded that H+ uptake by these vesicles is probably due to a dimeric (H+ + K+)-ATPase and is probably non-electrogenic.

We described a micromethod for determining serum triglycerides (triacylglycerols) with the centrifugal analyzer. This technique is based on the procedure of Bublitz and Kennedy [J. Biol. Chem. 211, 951 (1954)]. The enzymic hydrolysis requires 10 min at 30 degrees C. Twenty-six serum triglyceride assays can be done in about 30 min. Concentration and absorbance are linearly related up to 5.0 mmol/liter, but higher concentrations can be assayed by changing conditions slightly. Day-to-day reproducibility for the method was satisfactory (CV, 2.7 to 8.4%). Comparison of this method and two other methods for triglycerides, the automated Hantzsch condensation method and a commercial enzymic method (Calbiochem), gave correlation coefficients of 0.976 and 0.990, respectively. Results are unaffected by the presence of endogenous serum ADP, pyruvic acid, phosphatases, or ATPase.

A prodcedure was developed for the purification of the ATP-dependent deoxyribonuclease of Bacillus subtilis 168. It comprises ammonium sulphate fractionation, Sephadex gel filtration, DEAE-cellulose chromatography and gel electrophoresis on a discontinuous polyacrylamide gradient. The enzyme has been obtained in a homogeneous state. Its molecular weight was estimated to be 270000 by disc electrophoresis. Dodecylsulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed the presence of five nonidentical subunits of the following molecular weights: 81000, 70000, 62000, 52500 and 42500. These values give 308000 as the molecular weight of the native enzyme. The pH optimum of the purified enzyme is 9.6. The optimal concentrations of Mg2+ and ATP for exonuclease activity on native B. subtilis DNA were determined. ATP-requirement for hydrolysis of single-stranded DNA is less strigent. The enzyme also possesses high DNA-dependent ATPase activity. The purification procedure was applied to extracts of a mutant devoid of activity for this enzyme (strain GSY 1290). A protein was isolated which is very similar to the active DNAase as regards electrophoretic mobility, reaction with specific antisera and size of four of the subunits. One subunit is missing (Mr 70000) and is replaced by a smaller polypeptide (Mr 565000). The latter results suggest that the mutant is affected in the genetic locus coding for the 70000-Mr subunit.

The respiration and the ATP content of Klebsiella aerogenes in the presence of various inhibitors were compared to the transport of scyllo-inositol. The ATPase was found to be inhibited by dicyclohexyl carbodiimide. The transport has been tested in anaerobiosis and aerobiosis. From the results obtained it is concluded that either ATP or respiration can sustain the transport activity in independent manner. 2. The energy derived from the respiratory chain reactions or the ATP hydrolysis results in electrogenic extrusion of protons. The electrochemical potential created drives the accumulation of scyllo-inositol, as shown by an increase of pH of the medium on addition of the substrate to cells in anaerobiosis. With non-induced cells no change in pH occurs, which demonstrates that proton flow is really linked to the transport. No H+/Na+ or K+ exchange is observed and the proton conductor carbonylcyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone abolishes the pH shift caused by substrate addition. The stoichiometry of the symport H+/cyclitol is 1 and the half-maximum value of the pH variation as a function of the amount of scyllo-inositol added corresponds to a concentration of scyllo-inositol very close to the KT of influx.

Measurements were made of the difference in the electrochemical potential of protons (delta-mu H+) across the membrane of vesicles restituted from the ATPase complex (TF0.F1) purified from a thermophilic bacterium and P-lipids. Two fluorescent dyes, anilinonaphthalene sulfonate (ANS) and 9-aminoacridine (9AA) were used as probes for measuring the membrane potential (delta psi) and pH difference across the membrane (delta pH), respectively. In the presence of Tris buffer the maximal delta psi ans no delta pH were produced, while in the presence of the permeant anion NO-3 the maximal delta pH and a low delta psi were produced by the addition of ATP. When thATP concentration was 0.24 mm, the delta psi was 140-150 mV (positive inside) in Tris buffer, and the delta pH was 2.9-3.5 units (acidic inside) in the presence of NO-3. Addition of a saturating amount of ATP produced somewhat larger delta psi and delta pH values, and the delta -muH+attained was about 310mV. By trapping pH indicators in the vesicles during their reconstitution it was found that the pH inside the vesicles was pH 4-5 during ATP hydrolysis. The effects of energy transfer inhibitors, uncouplers, ionophores, and permeant anions on these vesicles were studied.
