Actin modified at Lys-61 with fluorescein 5-isothiocyanate (FITC) recovers the ability to polymerize following the binding of phalloidin. The resulting polymer (FITC-P-actin) activates the S1-Mg2+-ATPase activity to the same extent as non-labeled F-actin. However, in the absence of phalloidin, FITC-actin (0.5 mg/ml) neither polymerized nor activated the S1-Mg2+-ATPase activity effectively even when it was preincubated with S1 for 3 h in 0.1 mM ATP, 0.1 mM CaCl2, and 1 mM Tris/HCl (pH 8.0), in contrast to the previous report [Miller, L., Phillips, M., & Reisler, E. (1988) Eur. J. Biochem. 174, 23-29]. The modification of Lys-61 did not impair the ability to bind tropomyosin or tropomyosin-troponin. On the other hand, the fluorescence polarization of FITC-P-actin increased when tropomyosin or troponin-tropomyosin was added. Moreover, the modification of Lys-61 affected the regulation of the actin activation of the S1-Mg2+-ATPase activity by the tropomyosin and troponin complex. In 30 mM KCl, 2.5 mM ATP, and 5 mM MgCl2, tropomyosin alone has been shown to inhibit the actin-activated S1-Mg2+-ATPase. This inhibition did not occur with FITC-P-actin even though tropomyosin was tightly bound. When troponin-tropomyosin was added, the FITC-P-actin activation of S1-Mg2+-ATPase activity was regulated in response to micromolar Ca2+ concentrations. On the other hand, in 30 mM KCl, 2.5 mM ATP, and 2 mM MgCl2, tropomyosin alone did not inhibit the actin-activated S1-Mg2+-ATPase activity with either non-labeled F-actin or FITC-actin.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Rat liver microsomal fraction was incubated at pH 8.8 with fluorescein-5'-isothiocyanate in a Tris-buffered sucrose medium. This treatment completely inhibited ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport, Ca2+-ATPase activity, and Ca2+-ATPase phosphoenzyme intermediate formation. Inhibition of Ca2+ transport and phosphoenzyme intermediate formation by fluorescein-5'-isothiocyanate was partially prevented by including ATP in the treatment medium. These data taken together are consistent with the proposal that fluorescein-5'-isothiocyanate binds the Ca2+-ATPase ATP-binding site, suggesting the presence of a lysine residue in this domain. Fluorescein-5'-isothiocyanate labeling of microsomal proteins had no measurable effect on the basal, Mg2+-ATPase activity. Using fluorescein-5'-isothiocyanate-labeled microsomal fraction, we demonstrated that the Mg2+-ATPase activity was inhibited by Ca2+.

The effects of chloroquine on calmodulin (CaM)-related enzyme activities and the shape of human erythrocytes have been studied. It was found that the CaM activation of rat brain phosphodiesterase was abolished by the addition of chloroquine. CaM was included in the assay of phosphodiesterase activity at the concentration that gave half-maximal activation. The concentration of chloroquine that caused 50% inhibition of CaM stimulation of phosphodiesterase was 7 X 10(-5)M. The type of inhibition was competitive with respect to CaM. The CaM-stimulated Ca2+, Mg2+-ATPase in erythrocyte membrane was also inhibited by chloroquine, the 50% inhibitory concentration of which was about 2 X 10(-4)M. Its mode of action was also competitive with respect to CaM. The shapes of erythrocyte ghosts prepared by hypotonic hemolysis were examined in a solution consisting of 2 mM MgCl2, 154 mM NaCl and 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4); they were discocytic in the presence of 2 mM ATP and in its absence. They were converted to the invaginated form by the addition of chloroquine in the concentration range of 1 X 10(-4)-5 X 10(-4)M. This concentration is similar to that which caused the inhibition of CaM activation of Ca2+, Mg2+-ATPase.

Oligomycin-sensitive particulate ATPase (MB ATPase) from L. donovani promastigotes was solubilized by chloroform treatment. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed several protein bands, with the major one possessing ATPase activity. The solubilized enzyme had Mg2+-ATPase and Ca2+-ATPase but no K+-dependent alkaline phosphatase activity. The Mg2+-ATPase activity was stimulated by monovalent cations and was not sensitive to oligomycin. Hence it is referred to as F1 ATPase. It had optimum activity at pH 7.6 and 30 degrees C. The Arrhenius plot for MB ATPase was biphasic with activation energies (Ea) of 16.2 and 3.4 kcal mol-1, while F1 ATPase exhibited a linear plot with Ea = 10.1 kcal mol-1. Lineweaver-Burk plots were biphasic with Km values of 0.17 and 1.25 mM for MB ATPase and 0.18 and 1.33 mM for F1 ATPase. The enzyme could be preserved at -15 degrees C in Tris-SO2-(4)-EDTA-ATP-glycerol (t1/2 = 20 days).

Erythrocyte membranes, isolated after step-wise hemolysis in buffered sucrose (Tris-sucrose membranes), showed higher Ca2+ Mg2+-ATPase activity than erythrocyte membranes obtained after hemolysis in Tris-HCl, and washing in EDTA (Tris-EDTA membranes). In Tris-sucrose membranes, the activity was not stimulated by the addition of monovalent cations, or calmodulin. Differences reported for the activity and properties of Ca2+ Mg2+-ATPase between Tris-EDTA membranes of Duchenne patients and controls, were not found in Tris-sucrose membranes. Also the activity and properties of the Ca2+-pump in resealed erythrocyte membranes were not changed.

Various aspects of actin-myosin interaction were investigated using myosin in the form of filaments and minifilaments obtained by dialysis against citrate-Tris buffer or by adding this buffer to performed myosin filaments. Considerable similarities in the behaviour of the two systems were found. (1) Although the minifilaments are soluble structures, they form insoluble complexes with actin, which superprecipitate upon addition of MgATP. Observations in the electron microscope and from centrifugation experiments have shown that the two actomyosin systems undergo essentially similar structural changes during superprecipitation. (2) At low substrate concentrations the rate of ATP hydrolysis in both systems declines with time, which is typical of insoluble superprecipitating actomyosin. (3) In contrast to soluble myosin subfragments, both filamentous and minifilamentous myosin give biphasic actin-activation curves. (4) The Mg2+-ATPase activities of myosin minifilaments and standard myosin preparations at low KCl extrapolate to similar Vmax at infinite actin concentration. Since our values of Vmax for myosin filaments and minifilaments are in the range of those reported for myosin subfragments, the results of this investigation confirm the view that the catalytic properties of myosin subfragments and intact myosin are equivalent. Moreover, the data show that the extent of myosin aggregation in the initial preparations has no appreciable effect on the characteristic features of the interaction between intact myosin and actin at pH 8.

In contrast to everted mitochondrial inner membrane vesicles and eubacterial plasma membrane vesicles, the ATPase activity of chloroplast ATP synthase in thylakoid membranes is extremely low. Several treatments of thylakoids that unmask ATPase activity are known. Illumination of thylakoids that contain reduced ATP synthase (reduced thylakoids) promotes the hydrolysis of ATP in the dark. Incubation of thylakoids with trypsin can also elicit higher rates of ATPase activity. In this paper the properties of the ATPase activity of the ATP synthase in thylakoids treated with trypsin are compared with those of the ATPase activity in reduced thylakoids. The trypsin-treated membranes have significant ATPase activity in the presence of Ca2+, whereas the Ca2+-ATPase activity of reduced thylakoids is very low. The Mg2+-ATPase activity of the trypsinized thylakoids was only partially inhibited by the uncouplers, at concentrations that fully inhibit the ATPase activity of reduced membranes. Incubation of reduced thylakoids with ADP in Tris buffer prior to assay abolishes Mg2+-ATPase activity. The Mg2+-ATPase activity of trypsin-treated thylakoids was unaffected by incubation with ADP. Trypsin-treated membranes can make ATP at rates that are 75-80% of those of untreated thylakoids. The Mg2+-ATPase activity of trypsin-treated thylakoids is coupled to inward proton translocation and 10 mM sulfite stimulates both proton uptake and ATP hydrolysis. It is concluded that cleavage of the gamma subunit of the ATP synthase by trypsin prevents inhibition of ATPase activity by the epsilon subunit, but only partially overcomes inhibition by Mg2+ and ADP during assay.
