An estrogen-regulated arginine esteropeptidase is present in the immature rat uterus. The enzymatic complex consists of a membrane-bound activator and a soluble proenzyme. The activator is under strong estrogen control; its activity increases 10-fold 3 h after a single dose of 17 beta-estradiol. The subcellular localization of the activator is determined by a radioactive assay of fractions prepared by sucrose density centrifugation. The distribution of activity parallels the distribution of two plasma membrane markers, Mg2+-ATPase and 5'-nucleotidase. Electron micrographic visualization of the gradient fractions containing the activator reveals a population of vesicles 0.2-0.5 micron in diameter.

The comparative research of catalytic properties of two ATP-hydrolases of the sarcolemma of the smooth muscle of the uterus--ouabaine-sensitive Na+,K+-ATPase and ouabaine-resistent Mg2+-ATPase is carried out. The specific enzymatic activity of Na+,K+-ATPase and Mg2+-ATPase makes 10.2 +/- 0.7 and 18.1 +/- 1.2 mmol P/mg of protein for 1 hour, accordingly. The action of ouabaine on Na+,K+-ATPase is characterized by magnitude of quotient of inhibition I0.5=21.3 +/- 1.5 mkM. Processing of the sarcolemma fraction by digitonin in concentrations 0.001 +/- 0.1% promotes an activation of Na+,K+ATPase and Mg2+- ATPase, and in the first case much more efficiently than in the second. The kinetics of accumulation of the product of ATP-hydrolase reactions of phosphate satisfies the laws of the zero order reaction (incubation time--about 10 min). Na+,K+-ATPase is highly specific concerning the univalent cations--Na+, K+, however Li+ can partially substitute K+. Activity of Mg2+-ATPase is not specific concerning univalent cations. The dependence of Na+,K+-ATPase activity on pH in the range of 6.0-8.0 is characterized by the bell-shaped curve, at the same time the linear dependence on pH is peculiar to Mg2+-ATPase. The functioning of Na+,K+-ATPase is provided only by ATP, in the case of Mg2+-ATPase ATP can be successfully replaced with other nucleotidetriphosphates. It is supposed that the obtained experimental data can be beneficial in further research of membranous mechanisms underlying the cation exchange in the smooth muscles, in particular when studying the role of the plasma membrane in the maintenance of electromechanical coupling in them, and also in the regulation of ionic homeostasis in myocytes.

Kinetic regularities of the reaction of Ca2+-independent Mg2+-dependent enzymatic hydrolysis of ATP catalyzed by the so-called "basal" Mg2+-ATPase localized in the plasmatic membrane of the uterus smooth-muscle cells have been studied using the methods of kinetic analysis performed under the equilibrium conditions. The analysis was based on the study of the concentration dependence of initial velocity of nucleoside triphosphate hydrolysis in EGTA-containing medium under the change of general concentrations of ATP [ATP]o and Mg2+[Mg2+]o in conditions of their equimolar ratio ([ATP]o/ [Mg2+]o)= 1; here the ratio between the concentrations of free reagents ([ATP4-]o/[Mg2+]o) was equal to 1.25. The obtained concentration dependence was interpreted in terms of two practically possible alternative mechanisms of Mg2+-dependent ATP-hydrolase enzymatic reaction. Mechanism I. Two separate independent centres of Mg ions and ATP binding by the enzymatic protein are supposed to exist, while Mg2+-dependent ATP-hydrolase enzymatic reaction proceeds independent of the equilibrium reaction of Mg ions chelatization of muscleside triphosphate. Mechanism II. The existence of the only centre of the chelate complex Mg2+ATP2- binding is postulated on the enzymatic protein; this process is also realized independent of the binding of Mg2+ and ATP-hydralase reaction catalized by it.

Plasma membrane Ca2+,Mg2+-ATPase is an important element of general myometrium tonus control mechanism, which also makes a contribution to muscle tension relaxation after its contraction. Expiriments were done on the myometrial cell plasma membrane suspension, which was treated with 0.1% digitonin solution. The authors have investigated the inhibitory action of calix[4]arene C-90 (5,11,17,23-tetra(trifluor) methyl(phenylsulphonylimino)-methylamino-25,26,27,28-tetra propoxi-calix[4]arene) on the Ca2+,Mg2+-ATPase activity (the magnitude of 10.5 was 20.2 +/- 0.5 mkM). The inhibitory action of calix[4]arene C-90 on the activity of Ca2+, Mg2+-ATPase is explained as cooperative action of four trifluormethyl(phenylsulfonylimino)methylamino groups that are spatially oriented on the calix[4]-arene base rather than with the action of tetra-phenol macrocycle or separate pharmacophore sulphonilamidin groups. Considering established kinetic pattern of calix[4]arene C-90 inhibitory action on the plasma membrane Ca2+,Mg2+-ATPase activity, stationary kinetical model of basal calcium concentration control in unexcited uterus myocytes was developed. It is assumed that obtained results may be promising for creation of new generation ("supramolecular") pharmacological agent - uterus basal tonus stimulator - on the base of calix[4] arene C-90.
