1. The activities of some membrane-bound enzymes such as adenylate cyclase, Na+ + K+-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase (Na+ + K+-ATPase), Ca2+-stimulated ATPase and Mg2+-stimulated ATPase were examined in heart sarcolemmal fractions from control and cardiomyopathic hamsters at different stages of heart failure. 2. The basal adenylate cyclase activity in sarcolemma from cardiomyopathic animals with early, moderate and late stages of heart failure was not different from the control values whereas the sodium fluoride- and catecholamine-stimulated adenylate cyclase activities were depressed in cardiomyopathic sarcolemma at moderate and late stages. 3. The sarcolemmal Na+ + K+-ATPase activity was decreased and the non-specific phosphatase activity was increased at early, moderate and late stages of heart failure. 4. The sarcolemmal Ca2+-ATPase activity was decreased at moderate and late stages whereas the Mg2+-ATPase activity was decreased at the late stages of heart failure only. 5. A marked decrease was found in calcium binding by heart sarcolemma from cardiomyopathic hamsters at late stages of failure. 6. These results suggest that dramatic sarcolemmal changes are associated with heart failure, and support the view that membrane abnormalities play a crucial role in the development of myocardial dysfunction, cyclase, calcium binding, heart failure, heart membranes, sarcolemmal enzymes.

A mutant Escherichia coli, selected for resistance to the antibiotic neomycin, was unable to utilize nonfermentable carbon sources for growth. Two strains were selected from this mutant on the basis of their ability to grow utilizing succinate as a carbon source. All three strains had approximately equal amounts of the Mg2+-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) (EC 3.6.1.3) protein, but the activity of the enzyme differed in each strain. The Mg2+-ATPase from each of the three strains lost activity upon solubilization and appeared to undergo rapid dissociation once solubilized. This dissociation is similar to that described for the wild type after cold exposure.

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) hydrolysis catalyzed by the plasma membrane (Na+,K+)ATPase isolated from several sources was inhibited by Mg+, provided that K+ and ATP were also present. Phosphorylation of the adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) by ATP and by inorganic phosphate was also inhibited, as was p-nitrophenyl phosphatase activity. (Ethylenedinitrilo)tetraacetic acid (EDTA) and catecholamines protected from and reversed the inhibition of ATP hydrolysis by Mg2+, K+ and ATP. EDTA was protected by chelation of Mg2+ but catecholamines acted by some other mechanism. The specificities of various nucleotides as inhibitors (in conjunction with Mg2+ and K+) and as substrates for the (Na+, K+) ATPase were strikingly different. ATP, ADP, beta,gamma-CH2-ATP and alpha,beta-CH2-ADP were active as inhibitors, whereas inosine, cytidine, uridine, and guanosine triphosphates (ITP, CTP, UTP, and GTP) and adenosine monophosphate (AMP) were not. On the other hand, ATP and CTP were substrates and beta,gamma-NH-ATP was a competitive inhibitor of ATP hydrolysis, but not an inhibitor in conjunction with Mg2+ and K+. The Ca2+-ATPase from sarcoplasmic reticulum and F1, the Mg2+-ATPase from the inner mitochondrial membrane, were also inhibited by Mg2+. Catecholamines reversed inhibition of the Ca2+-ATPase, but not that of F1.

A highly purified preparation of myosin from Physarum polycephalum has been shown by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis to contain heavy chains and only one molecular weight class of light chains, of approx. 15 000 daltons. Kinetic investigations of the Ca2+-ATPase and Mg2+-ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolases, EC 3.6.1.3) at pH 8.0 gave Km and V values of 17.3 muM and 1.25 mumol Pi/min per mg, and 2.4 muM and 0.12 mumol Pi/min per mg, respectively. Adenylyl imidodiphosphate, a beta-gamma-imido ATP analog, inhibited the ATPase activity of Physarum myosin competitively with Ki values equal to 350 and 12 muM in the presence of Ca2+ and Mg2+, respectively. The ATPase activity of Physarum myosin was inhibited at a very low rate (t1/2 = 24 h) by the ATP analog, 6,6'-dithiobis(inosinyl imidodiphosphate), with concentrations of inhibitor previously shown to inactivate (t1/2 approximately 10 min) skeletal and cardiac myosins rapidly by reacting with key cysteines.

Calcium regulation of actomyosin activity in the nematode, Caenorhabditis elegans, has been studied with purified proteins and crude thin filaments. Actin and tropomyosin have been purified from C. elegans and shown to be similar in most respects to actin and tropomyosin from rabbit skeletal muscle. The actin comigrates with rabbit actin on polyacrylamide-sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis, forms similar filaments and paracrystals, and activates the Mg2+-ATPase of rabbit myosin heads as efficiently as rabbit actin. Nematode tropomyosin has a greater apparent molecular weight (estimated by mobility on polyacrylamide-sodium dodecyl sulfate gels) than the rabbit protein, yet it forms Mg2+-paracrystals with a slightly shorter periodicity. Native thin filaments extracted from nematodes activate rabbit myosin subfragment 1 Mg2+-ATPase in a calcium sensitive manner; the extent of activation is threefold greater in 0.2 mM CaCl2 than in the absence of calcium. This observation suggests that the thin filaments contain components which are functionally equivalent to vertebrate troponins. Calcium is also required for maximal activation of the Mg2+-ATPase of purified nematode myosin by pure rabbit F-actin. C. elegans therefore has both myosin and thin filament-linked calcium regulatory systems. The origin of the actin, tropomyosin, and myosin from different tissues and the use of genetic analysis to answer questions about assembly and function in vivo are discussed.

Kinetic measurement of the reaction of dynein ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) extracted from the gills of Mytilus edulis shows that in the presence of Mg2+ there is a very rapid initial liberation of Pi from the dynein-ATP system, followed by a slower liberation in the steady state. In view of following results, we have confirmed that this phenomenon is not due to the accumulation of end products, a fall in substrate concentration, nor to the presence of labile impurities in ATP but is due to the catalytic activity of dynein ATPase. 1. The replacement of native dynein by heat denatured dynein or other kinds of Mg2+-ATPase could not produce such a burst phenomenon under the same condition. 2. Both the rate of initial burst and that of steady state were proportional to enzyme content over a wide range under our standard condition. 3. Initial burst was also observed under the constant ATP level by using a ATP generate system. 4. Preincubation of dynein with Pi prior to initiation of the reaction did not eliminate the initial burst. Some properties of the initial rapid liberation of dynein ATPase were also examined. These are shown below. 5. The free ADP liberation did not show any initial burst though the Pi liberation did in the initial phase and the rate of free ADP liberation was almost equal to that of Pi liberation of the steady state. 6. Mg2+ was more effective than Ca2+ for the appearance of the initial burst while the liberation of Pi in the steady state was activated more by Ca2+ than by Mg2+. The addition of K+ in the presence of Mg2+ resulted in a marked increase of Pi liberation in the steady state but not in the initial state. 7. The activation energy of the initial burst was 9.7 kcal, which is slightly smaller than that of myosin ATPase.

Oviductal secretions include an ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3) that is transferred from the outer surface of the secretory cells to the surface of the ovulated oocyte. The enzyme has been purified and is a highly labile, very high molecular weight lipoprotein complex (greater than 4-10(6)). It consists of 47% protein and 53% lipid. Lipid composition is limited to phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine and sphingomyelin. The basic protein subunit has a molecular weight of 170 000. The enzyme exhibits many of the characteristics of ectoenzyme ATPase. The enzyme is Mg2+ or Ca2+ dependent; the Mg2+-ATPase has pH optima at 6.0 and 7.8 and the Ca2+-ATPase at 9.0. Substrate specificity is limited to ATP with lesser activity towards GTP, CTP, UPT and ADP. Km for ATP is 0.88 mM and the enzyme is inhibited at substrate concentrations greater than 3 mM ATP.

Subcellular fraction (brush border, mitochondria, microsomes and plasma membranes) are isolated from the rat intestinal epithelial cells. A comparison was made between the effect of cold storage, freeze-thawing, heating and of some chemicals (DMSO, DTT, glycerol, sucrose) on the stability of Mg2+ and (Na+-K+) dependent ATPases in these fractions in order to determine possible difference linked to the localization in the enterocyte. Enzymatic activities were found more stable at -20 degrees C than at +4 degrees C. Microsomal (Na+-K+)-ATPase increased in activity until the 8th day, then declined. Brush border (Na+-K+)-ATPase was the least resistant of all fractions. For Mg2+-ATPase, that from mitochondria was that had lost much more activity (84%) in 15 days at +4 degrees C. With freeze-thawing there was a comparable decrease in all activities (20-35%). by heating between 35 and 60 degrees C, Mg2+-ATPase was shown to be more heat resistant than (Na+-K+)-ATPase. The addition of some stabilizing chemicals (DMSO, glycerol, sucrose) improved the heat stability of the two enzymes: better results were obtained with glycerol for Mg2+-ATPase and sucrose for (Na+-K+)-ATPase. These differences might be due to the compositon in membraine lipids or to the nature of the enzymes studied.

The properties and localization of ATPase system in nuclei of skeletal muscle of normal rabbit and of those with experimental muscle dystrophy were studied by electron cytochemistry. The product of cytochemical reaction of ATP hydrolysis, which is a marker of ATPase activity localization in nuclear ultrastructures, was detected on the nuclear membrane, in chromatin and in the nucleolus, ATPase activity in the nuclei was detected in the presence of both, Mg2+ and Ca2+. Addition to the incubation medium, originally containing Mg2+, Na+ and K+, resulted in an increased formation of the product reaction in all the nuclear ultrastructures in both in the norm and under experimental muscle dystrophy. However, specific inhibitor of Mg2+, Na+, K+-ATPase--ouabain--suggests the absence in the nuclei of skeletal muscles of rabbit of transport ATPase working in the "Na-pump" system. The results of experiments with a specific complex of Ca2+--EGTA allow to suppose that Mg2+, Ca2+-ATPase of skeletal muscle nuclei of normal rabbits is localized in the nucleoplasm, whereas Mg2+-ATPase is found on the nuclear membrane. Using EGTA we failed to detected the localization of Mg2+, Ca2+-ATPase in nuclear ultrastructures upon experimental muscular dystrophy.

Studies have been made on Mg2+-activated ATPase of electroreceptor structures of the lateral line organin the ray D. pastinaca. It was shown that the enzyme is activated by magnesium ions (2.5 mM), maximum activation being observed at pH 8.0-8.5. The enzyme exhibits substrate specificity to adenyl nucleotides. Walls of ampullar canals also contain Mg2+-ATPase, however the level of the enzymatic activity in these walls is significantly lower.
