The plant lectin concanavalin A (Con A) specifically inactivates the 5'-nucleotidase of a plasma membrane-enriched fraction from lactating mammary gland. The lectin also causes an activation of the membrane Mg++-ATPase, but does not affect galactosyltransferase or alkaline phosphatase. The enzyme perturbations are prevented by alpha-methylmannoside, an inhibitor of Con A binding, indicating that specific binding to carbohydrate structures rather than nonspecific protein-protein interaction is involved. Solubilization of the 5'-nucleotidase in detergents (0.2% Triton X-100 or 1% deoxycholate) does not prevent Con A inactivation, indicating that incorporation into the membrane structure is not a requirement for the Con A effect. the results suggest that Con A inactivates the 5'-nucleotidase by a direct interaction with the enzyme and that this enzyme is a Con A receptor site on the surface of mammary cells.

1. Enzymes, proteins, glycoproteins and lipids of rodent bile were compared with those of a plasma-membrane subfraction originating from the hepatocyte bile-canalicular membrane. 2. Three bile-canalicular glycoprotein enzyme activities were detected in bile. Comparison of the pH optimum and immunoinhibition properties of membrane and bile 5'-nucleotidase activity indicated that they were the same enzyme. Correspondence between membrane and bile alkaline phosphodiesterases also suggested that they were the same enzymes. Activities of Mg2+-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase, a lipid-dependent intrinsic membrane protein, and galactosyltransferase, a Golgi membrane marker, were not detected in bile. 3. Rodent bile contained 15 polypeptide bands that differed radically from those of bile-canalicular membranes. Bands that may correspond in molecular weight to liver plasma-membrane glycoproteins were present at low staining intensities in bile. A major protein of apparent molecular weight 49 500 was present, and albumin was detected by immunodiffusion. 4. The lipid composition of bile and bile-canalicular membrane also differed. Phosphatidylcholine accounted for 82% of rat bile phospholipids, and only trace amounts of phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylserine and sphingomyelin were present. 5. The results indicate that in healthy animals, the bile-canalicular membrane is refractory to the action of bile acids during the secretory process. The presence of only small amounts of bile-canalicular membrane components, especially glycoprotein enzymes located at the outer face of the membrane, suggests that these are released from the membrane by bile acids after secretion of bile into the canalicular spaces.

Preparations of intestinal epithelial cell basal lateral plasma membranes were analyzed with free flow electrophoresis and density perturbation with digitonin. The initial basal lateral membrane preparations were obtained by equilibrium density gradient centrifugation after two different schemes of homogenization and differential sedimentation (A.K. Mircheff, C.H. van Os, and E.M. Wright. 1978. Membr. Biochem. 1:177, and A.K. Mircheff, S.D. Hanna, M.W. Walling, and E.M. Wright. 1979. Prep. Biochem. 9:33. In these preparations, Na,K-ATPase, a marker for the basal lateral mambrane, was purified 16- to 18-fold over the initial homogenate. The preparations were also enriched in NADPH-cytochrome c reductase, alkaline phosphatase, acid phosphatase, and galactosyltransferase. Both free-flow electrophoresis, which separates on the basis of surface charge, and density perturbation with digitonin, which depends on a specific interaction of digitonin with cholesterol-rich membranes, resolved the preparation into three populations of particles. The major population, which represented basal lateral membranes purified 20- to 32-fold with respect to the initial homogenate, contained Na,K-ATPase, alkaline phosphatase, adenylate cyclase, and acid phosphatase. A second population was defined by its content of NADPH-cytochrome c reductase, and the third was defined by its content of galactosyltransferase. Guanylate cyclase appeared to be partitioned between the Na,K-ATPase-rich and NADPH-cytochrome c reductase-rich populations. Galactosyltransferase is also present in fractions which contain the Na,K-ATPase-rich membranes, but the present data cannot exclude the possibility of spillover by the adjacent, galactosyltransferase-rich population. This work emphasizes the importance of multiple, physical criteria for purity in the isolation of subcellular components.

Lacrimal acinar cells secrete macromolecular products in an approximately isotonic, sodium chloride (NaCl)-rich fluid. The mechanisms of macromolecular product secretion depend in part on a recycling traffic of membrane constituents between the Golgi complex and the apical plasma membrane. In contrast, the acinar cell's mechanisms for secreting Na+ and Cl- depend largely on the fluxes of these ions through transporters expressed in the apical and basal-lateral membranes. In addition to accelerating the recycling of secretory vesicle membrane constituents, the cholinergic agonist carbachol also triggers a net redistribution of sodium potassium adenosine triphosphatase (Na,K-ATPase) ion pumps between Golgi-associated pools and the basal-lateral plasma membranes (Yiu SC, et al: J Membrane Biol 102:185, 1988). In the present study, acinar preparations from rat lacrimal glands were stimulated with either carbachol, epinephrine, or isoproterenol. All three agonist stimulated release of the secretory protein lactoperoxidase, but only carbachol significantly accelerated Na+ undirectional influx. Subcellular fractionation analyses of resting and stimulated preparations indicated that carbachol caused a significant translocation of Na,K-ATPase activity from a Golgi-associated compartment to the basal-lateral plasma membranes. Neither adrenergic agonist significantly increased the basal-lateral membrane Na,K-ATPase activity, but each triggered a distinct pattern of redistributions of Na,K-ATPase and the Golgi membrane marker, galactosyltransferase. The carbachol-induced augmentation of basal-lateral membrane Na,K-ATPase activity represents a mechanism by which the cell might compensate for increased Na+ influx.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

We have attempted to isolate samples of apical and basal-lateral plasma membranes from cultured fetal human RPE. Cells from confluent, dome-forming cultures were disrupted with a Dounce apparatus. Nuclei and melanin granules were sedimented by centrifugation at 2600 g for 10 min. The supernates were layered over gradients of 17.5-65% sorbitol and centrifuged at 122,000 g for 5 hr. Fractions were grouped into "density windows" on the basis of their biochemical marker contents. Na,K-ATPase and alkaline phosphatase overlapped but did not precisely parallel one another, suggesting associations with two partially separated membrane populations; in density window I, alkaline phosphatase was enriched 4.3-fold, and Na,K-ATPase was enriched 1.7-fold, whereas in window II the corresponding enrichment factors were 7.7 and 6.7. These markers were well resolved from a mitochondrial marker, but they were overlapped by endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi markers. Additional density gradient centrifugations, performed after samples had been suspended in 55% sorbitol, further separated alkaline phosphatase- and Na,K-ATPase-containing membranes from endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi membranes, yielding alkaline phosphatase and Na,K-ATPase cumulative enrichment factors of 6.8 and 2.5 for the sample from window I and 9.3 and 10.9 for the sample from window II. Subsequent phase partitioning analysis of the sample from window I further enriched an alkaline-phosphatase-rich membrane population, which is believed to represent the RPE basal-lateral membranes. The sample from density window II contained two membrane populations, both enriched in Na,K-ATPase, alkaline phosphatase, and galactosyltransferase, and both of which appear to be derived from the apical plasma membrane. SDS-PAGE and Western blotting confirmed a correlation between Na,K-ATPase catalytic activity and Na,K-ATPase alpha subunit immunoreactivity.

The glycosylation of H+K(+)-ATPase vesicles isolated from hog gastric mucosa was investigated by various methods. Following protein separation on sodium dodecyl sulfate reducing gels and transfer to poly(vinyl difluoride) membranes, binding of concanavalin A was confined to the 94-kDa band which corresponds to the catalytic subunit. In contrast, wheat germ agglutinin binding occurred in a region below the 94-kDa subunit, corresponding to the 60-85-kDa region, and also to protein just above the catalytic subunit. Treatment with glycopeptidase F removed most of the concanavalin A staining and also the wheat germ agglutinin staining found below the 94-kDa region, but spared the higher molecular weight wheat germ agglutinin reactive material. During the deglycosylation experiments a protein of 35-kDa was produced. Sequencing analysis of V8 protease generated peptide fragments of the 35-kDa protein show at least 30% homology with the Na+K(+)-ATPase beta-subunits. Labeling of the carbohydrates by galactosyltransferase and [3H]uridine diphosphate-galactose showed that the sites of labeling were extracellular and were confined to the wheat germ agglutinin staining regions. Two molecular weight regions, below the 94-kDa region, of 60 and 85 kDa were identified. Electron microscopy using postembedding staining techniques showed that both concanavalin A and wheat germ agglutinin staining occurred on the extracellular face of the gastric vesicles.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Plasma membranes from chick embryo neuronal primary cultures were isolated after subjecting 5-day-old cells, previously surface labeled with either lactoperoxidase-catalyzed radioiodination or galactose oxidase/NaB3H4, to a freeze-thaw cycle. The cellular material adhering to the culture substratum was washed, and the "wash" fractions were pooled and centrifuged at 37,000g. The resulting pellet was resuspended in 3 ml of buffer, layered on 33 ml of 33% sucrose, and centrifuged at 105,000g. Radioactivity was recovered at the top of the gradient. Sedimentation of these fractions and biochemical studies revealed that the pellet was 20- and 12-fold enriched in (Na+,K+)-adenosinetriphosphatase and 5'-nucleotidase, respectively. The preparation was devoid of inner mitochondrial (succinate dehydrogenase), outer mitochondrial (monoamine oxidase), endoplasmic reticulum (glucose-6-phosphatase), outer mitochondrial (monoamine oxidase), endoplasmic reticulum (glucose-6-phosphatase), and Golgi (UDP galactose:N-acetylglucosamine galactosyltransferase) enzymatic markers. Ultrastructural studies showed that the membrane preparation was homogeneous and lacked mitochondria endoplasmic reticulum and lysosomes. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate showed the presence of 11 protein components with molecular masses ranging from 120 to 300 kDa. This method for the isolation of plasma membranes probably depends on the capacity of the cellular material to adhere to the culture substratum and to entrap intracellular organelles during the freeze-thaw cycle. The membrane preparation seems suitable for studying the function of high-molecular-weight protein components of neuronal plasma membranes.

In cultured cells derived from isolated micromeres of sea urchin eggs, H+,K+-ATPase activity, which became detectable simultaneously with the initiation of spicule formation, was localized in the plasma membrane and the microsome fractions. Activities of marker enzymes for plasma membrane, 5'-nucleotidase, Na+,K+-ATPase, and adenylate cyclase, were found to be high in the plasma membrane fraction. Considerable activity of rotenone-insensitive NADPH-cytochrome c reductase, a marker enzyme for microsome, was detectable in the microsome fraction. These fractions exhibited barely any appreciable activity of markers for the other organellae. H+,K+-ATPase in plasma membrane probably mediates H+ release from the cells, in which H+ is produced in overall reaction to form CaCO3, the main component of spicules, from Ca2+, CO2 and H2O. Cl-,HCO3(-)-ATPase activity was also found in these two fractions before and after the initiation of spicule formation. After initiation, the skeletal vacuole fraction was obtained from subcellular structures containing spicules. Considerable activity of Cl-,HCO3(-)-ATPase was observed in this fraction, which exhibited a weak activity of UDP-galactose: N-acetylglucosamine galactosyltransferase, a marker enzyme for Golgi body. Cl-,HCO3(-)-ATPase in the skeletal vacuole membrane probably mediates HCO3- transport into the vacuoles to supply HCO3- for spicule formation.

Subcellular membrane fractions were prepared from the salt glands of osmotically-stressed ducklings. Two fractions were characterized biochemically with respect to (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, alkaline phosphodiesterase I, succinate dehydrogenase, esterase, and galactosyltransferase activities and immunochemically with respect to (Na+ + K+)-ATPase. The ratios of the estimates of the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase contents obtained biochemically and immunochemically from the two fractions differed by more than 2 X. The results are consistent with the presence of at least two molecular species of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, unevenly distributed between the two fractions.

Subcellular fractionation studies were performed to delineate plasma membrane and intracellular membrane populations which might be involved in intracellular Ca2+-homeostasis of rat small intestinal epithelial cells. After a low-speed supernatant fraction had been suspended in 5% sorbitol and subjected to equilibrium centrifugation in a zonal rotor, the Golgi and endoplasmic reticulum markers, galactosyltransferase and NADPH-cytochrome -c reductase, were concentrated in a density region designated Window II. The basal-lateral membrane marker (Na+-K+)-ATPase was concentrated in a higher-density region designated Window III. ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport was equally distributed between the two windows. Several membrane populations could be resolved from each window with good recovery of Ca2+-transport activity by a second density gradient centrifugation step. Second density gradient fractions were subjected to counter-current partitioning in an aqueous polymer two-phase system. Basal-lateral membranes, characterized by an 11-fold enrichment of (Na+-K+)-ATPase, contained ATP-dependent Ca2+-transport activity with Vmax = 3.7 nmol/mg per min and Km = 0.5 microM. A major Golgi-derived population exhibited Ca2+-transport activity with Vmax and Km values similar to those of the basal-lateral membranes. One membrane population, presumed to have been derived from the endoplasmic reticulum, contained Ca2+-transport activity with Vmax = 4 nmol/mg per min and Km = 0.5 microM. In addition to demonstrating that ATP-dependent Ca2+-transport activity has a complex distribution within enterocytes, this study raises the possibility that the basolateral plasma membranes might account for a relatively minor portion of the cell's Ca2+-pumping ability.
