An ATPase which strikingly differed from the mitochondrial ATPases of yeast and of animal tissues was obtained when wheat seedling mitochondria, or electron transport particles derived from them, were subjected to ultrasonication and treated with ammonium sulphate. The enzyme which was purified by chromatography on Sephadex G-100 and DEAE-Sephadex (A50) failed to be inactivated as low as 43 000. The enzyme preparation was capable of hydrolysing ADP, in addition to ATP, and several other nucleoside diphosphates and triphosphates. In contrast to the ATPase of animal mitochondria, the activity of the wheat enzyme was almost as insensitive to oligomycin in intact mitochondria as it was after isolation from the organelles.

The ATP-dependent DNase from Hemophilus influenzae digests double-stranded linear DNA molecules exonucleolytically while hydrolyzing large amounts of ATP to ADP. Various cross-linked linear duplex DNA molecules are partially resistant to the exonuclease action. Vaccinia DNA, containing natural terminal cross-links (probably in the form of terminal single-stranded loops), is much more slowly degraded than comparable "open-ended" DNA molecules, and ATP is consumed at a proportionately lower rate. It is postulated that the vaccinia DNA molecules undergo slow terminal cleavage by the single strand specific endonuclease activity of the enzyme, and are then rapidly degraded by the double strand exonuclease activity. Phage T7 DNA, containing an average of 100 4',5'8-trimethylpsoralen cross-links/molecule at random internal sites, is digested only to the extent of 2 to 3%. However, ATP hydrolysis continues at a linear rate long after DNA digestion has ceased. A stable enzyme-DNA complex is formed as demonstrated by co-sedimentation of DNA and ATPase activity in sucrose gradients. The hypothesis is advanced that the enzyme digests exonucleolytically to the first cross-link at each end of the DNA molecules where further movement is prevented. The enzyme then remains bound at the cross-links and functions continuously as an ATPase.

The N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD)-sensitive latent adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase) (EC 3.6.1.3; ATP phosphohydrolase) from Mycobacterium phlei has been purified to homogeneity and used to resotre oxidative phosphorylation to detergent-extracted membranes. The phosphorylation was inhibited by DCCD any by tetraphenylboron and valinomycin. The enzyme was solubilized from the membrane vesicles by treatment with cholate followed by extraction with Triton X-100. After partial purification on a sucrose gradient, the enzyme was purified to homogeneity by affinity chromatography on Sepharose coupled to ADP. The DCCD-sensitive latent ATPase of coupling factor from M. phlei consists of two components, the latent ATPase (Bcf4), which is insensitive to DCCD, and an intrinsic membrane component, BCF0. This hydrophobic portion of the DCCD-sensitive ATPase was partially purified on a sucrose gradient after solubilization with detergents from membrane vesicles that had been first depleted of the BCF4 by washing with 0.25 M sucrose. When BCF0 was combined with purified BCF4, the latent ATPase of the resulting complex was sensitive to DCCD. Moreover, like the purified DCCD-sensitive latent ATPase, the combined BCF4 and BCF0 restored coupled phosphorylation to detergent-extracted membranes.

The bioflavonoid, quercetin, inhibited the (Na+, K+)adenosine triphosphatase purified from the electric organ of electric eel (Electrophorus electricus) or from lamb kidney. An analysis of its mode of action revealed that the formation of phosphoenzyme from Pi but not from ATP was inhibited. Quercetin increased the amount of ADP-sensitive phosphoenzyme (E1--P), indicating an inhibition of the conversion of E1--P to the ADP-insensitive form (E2--P). The rate of dephosphorylation of the phosphoenzyme formed from ATP was slowed by quercetin. These results suggest that quercetin inhibits the formation of E2--P from either Pi or E1-P as well as the hydrolysis of the phosphoenzyme. Its mode of action is therefore different from that of ouabain and other inhibitors of the Na+, K+)adenosine triphosphatase.

Myosins from rabbit white and red skeletal, rabbit heart, fish skeletal and chicken gizzard muscles, as well as from human platelets were subjected to trinitrophenylation by trinitrobenzene sulfonate and alkylation by N-ethylmeleimide which affected their amino and thiol groups, respectively. The blocking of amino groups was carried out in the presence or in the absence of Mg-ADP and was followed both spectrophotometrically and enzymatically. Essential amino groups, whose modification throughly changes the enzymic characteristics of myosin, were found in heart and in all skeletal muscle myosins but were absent in myosins from chicken gizzard muscle and from human platelets. The reaction of these amino groups was highly retarded in the presence of Mg-ADP. Alkylation of thiols led to loss of the K+-activated ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) in all myosins. However, the rate of loss of activity varied from one myosin to another and, for a given myosin, was affected by the presence of nucleotides and by the value of the ionic strength. The change in Ca(2+)-activated ATPase activity (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) on alkylation was influenced by the presence of Mg - ADP during the reaction. In the absence of this nucleotide, the Ca(2+)-ATPase activity increased and reached a plateau as a consequence of modification. The extent of activation largely depended on the origin of the myosin. When alkylation was carried out in the presence of Mg-ADP, the Ca(2+)-ATPase activity as a function of time exhibited a maximum but the descending part of the curve was absent in myosins from heart and gizzard muscles.

The ATP-supported uptake of strontium by the fragmented sarcoplasmic reticulum is monophasic and proceeds more rapidly than the fast uptake of calcium. Strontium uptake is not activated by Pi. The accumulation of strontium is nearly proportional to the external strontium concentration even in the millimolar range. Internal and external strontium quickly equilibrate. One mole of strontium is stored for every mole of ATP split by the Sr2+-activated ATPase. In the absence of oxalate most of the strontium is taken up with a transport ratio of one. On the opposite, the transport ratio of calcium decreases immediately, especially when ADP is not instantaneously phosphorylated to ATP. In this case, energy conversion is uncoupled more effectively by the simultaneous action of ADP and free internal calcium, resulting in the interruption of the fast uptake. After depletion of ATP most of the stored strontium is released and the remaining fraction appears to be not exchangeable. Strontium activates the slow uptake of calcium, but reduces the amplitude of the fast uptake. The calcium induced release of strontium, and vice versa, is partial and transient. The strontium activated ATPase does not transport calcium at low ionic calcium concentrations.

Soluble mitochondrial ATPase (F1) from beef heart prepared in this laboratory contained approximately 1.8 mol of ADP and 0 mol of ATP/mol of F1 which were not removed by repeated precipitation of the enzyme with ammonium sulfate solution or by gel filtration in low ionic strength buffer containing EDTA. This enzyme had full coupling activity. Treatment of the enzyme with trypsin (5 mug/mg of F1 for 3 min) reduced the "tightly bound" ADP to zero, abolished coupling activity, but had no effect on the ATPase activity, stability, or membrane-binding capability of the F1. When the trypsin concentration was varied between 0 and 5 mug/mg of F1, tightly bound ADP was removed to varying degrees, and a correlation was seen between amount of residual tightly bound ADP and residual coupling activity. Gel filtration of the native F1 in high ionic strength buffer containing EDTA also caused complete loss of tightly bound ADP and coupling ability, whereas ATPase activity, stability, and membrane-binding capability were retained. The ADP-depleted F1 preparations were unable to rebind normal amounts of ADP or any ATP in simple reloading experiments. The results strongly suggest that tightly bound ADP is required for ATP synthesis and for energy-coupled ATP hydrolysis on F1. The results also suggest that ATP synthesis and energy-linked ATP hydrolysis rather than involving one nucleotide binding site on F1, involve a series or "cluster" of sites. The ATP hydrolysis site may represent one component of this cluster. The results show that nonenergy-coupled ATP hydrolysis on F1 can occur in the absence of tightly bound ADP or ATP.

Phosphorylating submitochondrial particles from beef heart (ETPH) prepared here contained about 2.4 nmol of ATP and 1.9 nmol of ADP/mg of protein after repeated washing of the particles. Essentially all of the "tightly bound " ATP and ADP was removed by trypsin treatment. The trypsin-treated ETPH had increased ATPase activity, undiminished NADH oxidase and succinate oxidase activity, but energy-coupling activity (ATP-driven reversed electron transfer) was abolished. Removal of half the ATP and ADP occurred at low levels of trypsin and was associated with loss of half of the coupling activity. Gel filtration of ETPH in high ionic strength buffer also removed ADP and ATP from the particles, resulting in loss of energy-coupling activity, while ATPase activity was increased. The results support the contention that the tightly bound ADP is essential in energy coupling in mitochondria. Tightly bound ATP may also play an essential role.

Spinach chloroplasts were incubated in the dark with methyl acetimidate in order to amidinate and thereby protect free amino groups. An energy-dependent attack on the coupling factor (CF1) of these amidinated chloroplasts by trinitrobenzenesulfonate was apparent in a second reaction, as long as the reagent was applied in the light or after an acid-base transition. Trinitrophenyl residues approached one each on the alpha and beta subunits, and two to three on the gamma subunit polypeptide of CF1. Accompanying trinitrophenylation was an inhibition of the ATPase activity of CF1 due to a major decrease in the affinity for ATP; however, neither the maximal ATPase rate nor the ability of the protein to serve as a coupling factor for EDTA-extracted chloroplasts was affected. Trinitrophenylation and consequent inhibition of ATPase were 50% prevented by the presence of phosphate, or ADP, or ATP during exposure to trinitrobenzenesulfonate. The protective effects of adenylates were additive with those of phosphate. The ratio of trinitrophenyl groups on the three subunits concerned was the same whether phosphate or ATP was providing 50% protection, or whether neither was present. It is inferred that a conformational change occurs in the amidinated coupling factor when a proton activity gradient is placed across the membranes, and effective ligands tend to prevent the resulting exposure of free amino groups from a previously hidden location.

The kinetics of the Mg2+-dependent ATPase (adenosine triphosphatase) activity of bovine cardiac myosin and its papain subfragment-1 were studied by using steady-state and pre-steady-state techniques, and results were compared with published values for the corresponding processes in the ATPase mechanism of rabbit skeletal-muscle myosin subfragment-1. The catalytic-centreactivity for cardiac subfragment-1 is 0.019s-1, which is less than one-third of that determined for the rabbit protein. The ATP-induced isomerization process, measured from enhancement of protein fluorescence on substrate binding, is similarly decreased in rate, as is also the isomerization process associated with ADP release. However, the equilibrium constant for ATP cleavage, measured by quenched-flow by using [gamma-32P]ATP, shows little difference in the two species. Other experiments were carried out to investigate the rate of association of actin with subfragment-1 by light-scattering changes and also the rate of dissociation of the complex by ATP. The dissociation rate increases with increasing substrate concentration, to a maximum at high ATP concentrations, with a rate constant of about 2000s-1. It appears that isomerization processes which may involve conformational changes have substantially lower rate constants for the cardiac proteins, whereas equilibrium constants for substrate binding and cleavage are not significantly different. These differences may be related to the functional properties of these myosins in their different muscle types. Kinetic heterogeneity has been detected in both steady-state and transient processes, and this is discussed in relation to the apparent chemical homogeneity of cardiac myosin.
