Anion dependence of (Ca2+ + K+)-stimulated Mg2+-dependent transport ATPase and its phosphorylated intermediate have been characterized in both "intact" and "broken" vesicles from endoplasmic reticulum of rat pancreatic acinar cells using adenosine 5'-[gamma-32P] triphosphate ([gamma-32P]ATP). In intact vesicles (Ca2+ + K+)-Mg2+-ATPase activity was higher in the presence of Cl- or Br- as compared to NO3-, SCN-, cyclamate-, SO4(2-) or SO3(2-). Incorporation of 32P from [gamma-32P]ATP into the 100-kDa intermediate of this Ca2+ATPase was also higher in the presence of Cl-, Br-, NO3- or SCN- as compared to cyclamate-, SO4(2-) or SO3(2-). When the membrane permeability barrier to anions was abolished by breaking vesicle membrane with the detergent Triton X-100 (0.015%) (Ca2+ + K+)-Mg2+ATPase activity in the presence of weakly permeant anions, such as SO4(2-) and cyclamate-, increased to the level obtained with Cl-. However, 32P incorporation into 100-kDa protein was still higher in the presence of Cl- as compared to cyclamate-, indicating a direct effect of Cl- on the Ca2+ATPase molecule. The anion transport blocker 4,4-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2-disulfonate (DIDS) inhibited (Ca2+ + K+)-Mg2+ATPase activity to about 10% of the Cl- stimulation level, irrespective of the sort of anions present in both intact and broken vesicles. This indicates a direct effect of DIDS on (Ca2+ + K+)-Mg2+ATPase. K+ ionophore valinomycin influenced (Ca2+ + K+)-Mg2+ATPase activity according to the actual K+ gradient: Ko+ greater than Ki+ caused inhibition, Ko+ less than Ki+ caused stimulation. From these results we conclude that Ca2+ transport into endoplasmic reticulum is coupled to ion movements which must occur to maintain electroneutrality.

Solubilization of microsomal proteins followed by calmodulin affinity chromatography resulted in the separation of two distinct Ca2+-Mg2+-ATPases (Ca2+-regulated Mg2+-dependent ATPases), one being insensitive to calmodulin (ATPase-1), the other being stimulated about 5-fold by calmodulin (ATPase-2). ATPase-2 accounts for only 8% of total microsomal Ca2+-Mg2+-ATPase-activity. ATPase-1 and -2 can also be distinguished by different pH optima, different sensitivity towards inhibition by vanadate and LaCl3, and different apparent Mr values of the phosphoenzyme intermediates (115,000 and 150,000 for ATPase-1 and ATPase-2 respectively). ATPase-1 from liver co-migrated with Ca2+-Mg2+-ATPase from rat skeletal-muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum, whereas ATPase-2 from liver co-migrated with calmodulin-dependent Ca2+-Mg2+-ATPase derived from rat skeletal-muscle sarcolemma. After separation of parenchymal and nonparenchymal liver cells, a calmodulin-dependent Ca2+-Mg2+-ATPase of Mr 150,000 was found only in the non-parenchymal cells. The kinetic parameters of ATPase-2 and the similarity of the apparent Mr of its phosphoenzyme intermediate to that of skeletal-muscle sarcolemma Ca2+-Mg2+-ATPase makes it likely that the calmodulin-sensitive Ca2+-Mg2+-ATPase found in rat liver microsomal fractions reflects a contamination with plasma membranes (possibly from non-parenchymal cells) rather than a true location in the endoplasmic reticulum of parenchymal liver cells.

A high-affinity Mg2+-independent Ca2+-ATPase (Ca2+-ATPase) has been differentiated from the Mg2+-dependent, Ca2+-stimulated ATPase (Ca2+,Mg2+-ATPase) in rat brain synaptosomal membranes. Using ATP as a substrate, the K0.5 of Ca2+ for Ca2+-ATPase was found to be 1.33 microM with a Km for ATP of 19 microM and a Vmax of 33 nmol/mg/min. Using Ca-ATP as a substrate, the Km for Ca-ATP was found to be 0.22 microM. Unlike Ca2+,Mg2+-ATPase, Ca2+-ATPase was not inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide, trifluoperazine, lanthanum, zinc, or vanadate. La3+ and Zn2+, in contrast, stimulated the enzyme activity. Unlike Ca2+, Mg2+-ATPase activity, ATP-dependent Ca2+ uptake was negligible in the absence of added Mg2+, indicating that the Ca2+ transport into synaptosomal endoplasmic reticulum may not be a function of the Ca2+-ATPase described. Ca2+-ATPase activity was not stimulated by the monovalent cations Na+ or K+. Ca2+, Mg2+-ATPase demonstrated a substrate preference for ATP and ADP, but not GTP, whereas Ca2+-ATPase hydrolyzed ATP and GTP, and to a lesser extent ADP. The results presented here suggest the high-affinity Mg2+-independent Ca2+-ATPase may be a separate form from Ca2+,Mg2+-ATPase. The capacity of Mg2+-independent Ca2+-ATPase to hydrolyze GTP suggests this protein may be involved in GTP-dependent activities within the cell.

Endosome fractions were isolated from rat liver homogenates on the basis of the subcellular distribution of circulating ligands, e.g. 125I-asialotransferrin internalized by hepatocytes by a receptor-mediated process. The distribution of endocytosed 125I-asialotransferrin 1-2 min and 15 min after uptake by liver and a monensin-activated Mg2+-dependent ATPase activity coincided on linear gradients of sucrose and Nycodenz. The monensin-activated Mg2+-ATPase was enriched relative to the liver homogenates up to 60-fold in specific activity in the endosome fractions. Contamination of the endosome fractions by lysosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, plasma membranes and Golgi-apparatus components was low. By use of 9-aminoacridine, a probe for pH gradients, the endosome vesicles were shown to acidify on addition of ATP. Acidification was reversed by addition of monensin. The results indicate that endosome fractions contain an ATP-driven proton pump. The ionophore-activated Mg2+-ATPase in combination with the presence of undegraded ligands in the endosome fractions emerge as linked markers for this new subcellular organelle.

A detailed procedure for subcellular fractionation of the smooth muscle from pig coronary arteries based on dissection of the proper tissue, homogenization, differential centrifugation and sucrose density gradient centrifugation is described. A number of marker enzymes and Ca2+ uptake in presence or absence of oxalate, ruthenium red and azide were studied. The ATP-dependent oxalate-independent azide- or ruthenium red-insensitive Ca2+ uptake, and the plasma membrane markers K+-activated ouabain-sensitive p-nitrophenylphosphatase, 5'-nucleotidase and Mg2+-ATPase showed maximum enrichment in the F2 fraction (15-28% sucrose) which was also contaminated with the endoplasmic reticulum marker NADPH: cytochrome c reductase, and to a small extent with the inner mitochondrial marker cytochrome c reductase, and also showed a small degree of oxalate stimulation of the Ca2+ uptake. F3 fraction (28-40% sucrose) was maximally enriched in the ATP- and oxalate-dependent azide-insensitive Ca2+ uptake and the endoplasmic reticulum marker NADPH: cytochrome c reductase but was heavily contaminated with the plasma membrane and the inner mitochondrial markers. The mitochondrial fraction was enriched in cytochrome c oxidase and azide- or ruthenium red-sensitive ATP-dependent Ca2+ uptake but was heavily contaminated with other membranes. Electron microscopy showed that F2 contained predominantly smooth surface vesicles and F3 contained smooth surface vesicles, rough endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria. The ATP-dependent azide-insensitive oxalate-independent and oxalate-stimulated Ca2+ uptake comigrated with the plasma membrane and the endoplasmic reticulum markers, respectively, and were preferentially inhibited by digitonin and phosphatidylserine, respectively. This study establishes a basis for studies on receptor distribution and further Ca2+ uptake studies to understand the physiology of coronary artery vasodilation.

The endoplasmic reticulum is the principal site of synthesis and initial incorporation of membrane lipids in eukaryotic cells; the enzymes of glycerolipid biosynthesis are exclusively located on its cytoplasmic surface. To maintain a phospholipid bilayer in this organelle, newly synthesized phospholipids must be translocated to the lumenal surface. Consistent with this are measurements indicating that movement of phospholipids across microsomal membranes is rapid, with a half-time less than 5 min (refs 3 and 4). Rapid movement of phospholipids has also been detected across the plasma membrane of Bacillus megaterium, another site of de novo lipid biosynthesis. The rapid transmembrane movement of phosphatidylcholine has not been detected, however, in vesicles prepared from microsomal lipids. These latter data suggest involvement in the endoplasmic reticulum of a phospholipid-translocating protein, as was first proposed by Bretscher who called it 'flippase'. Here we report reconstitution of a phospholipid flippase from rat liver microsomes into lipid vesicles.

A technique currently used for isolation of brush border membranes from renal and intestinal epithelium that involves vigorous tissue homogenization and sedimentation of non-luminal membranes in the presence of Mg2+ has been adapted to rat liver. Liver plasma membranes so prepared consisted almost exclusively of vesicles by electron microscopy, showed some contamination with endoplasmic reticulum and minimal contamination with mitochondria or Golgi by marker enzymes, were highly enriched in alkaline phosphatase, Mg2+-ATPase, and 5'-nucleotidase activity compared with homogenate, and showed little enrichment in (Na+, K+)-ATPase. Comparison of this enzymatic profile with cytochemical studies localizing (Na+, K+)-ATPase and alkaline phosphatase to the sinusoidal/lateral and canalicular membranes, respectively, suggested that these membranes were predominantly of canalicular origin. They had a lower (Na+ + K+)-ATPase specific activity, lower lipid content, and higher cholesterol to phospholipid molar ratio than a conventional plasma membrane preparation believed to be enriched in canaliculi. Moreover, it was possible to measure movement of D-[3H]glucose into an osmotically sensitive space bounded by these membrane vesicles.

Using desheathed cat peroneal nerves in in vitro studies, Ca2+ was recently shown to be required to maintain axoplasmic transport. Calmodulin was also shown to be present in nerve and to participate in transport. These findings open up new possibilities for a better understanding of the underlying mechanism of transport. In the transport filament model, the materials transported are bound to a common carrier, the transport filaments, which are moved along the microtubules by means of an interaction with the side arms of the microtubules. This is an energy-requiring process that depends on a supply of ATP, which is utilized by the Ca2+,Mg2+-ATPase associated with the side arms of the microtubules. The Ca2+,Mg2+-ATPase is activated by calmodulin at the low micromolar levels of free Ca2+ present in the axon. The level is kept low by calcium-regulatory mechanisms that include mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, and calcium-binding proteins. Nerves exposed to higher-than-normal concentrations of Ca2+ in the medium show an increased number of particles in these organelles as expected of their Ca2+-regulatory role. The nature of the calmodulin-Ca,Mg-ATPase complex associated with the side arms is discussed on the basis of the transport model. Also discussed is slow transport, which is explained on the basis of the model as a differential binding affinity to the transport filaments.

Human granulocytes were disrupted by nitrogen cavitation and the lysates fractionated by sucrose density gradient centrifugation at 83000 X g for 20 min (rate zonal) or 3.5 h (isopycnic). The distribution of marker enzymes allowed the identification of the following subcellular components: plasma membrane, Golgi, endoplasmic reticulum, azurophil granules, specific granules, mitochondria and cytosol. Examination of the gradient fractions by electron microscopy confirmed the biochemical marker analysis. The protocol permitted isolation of vesicles highly enriched in either plasma membrane or Golgi (galactosyl transferase) activities. Absolute plasma membrane yields of 40-60% were achieved with a 20-70-fold increase in specific activity of surface marker over the cells. Plasma membrane sedimented to an average density of 1.14 g X cm-3. Galactosyl transferase activity was bimodal in distribution. The denser peak cosedimented with specific granules (p = 1.19). The lighter peak sedimented to unique position at an average density of 1.11, was enriched 18-fold over the low speed supernatant, and contained structures resembling Golgi. N-Formyl-Met-Leu-Phe binding and Mg2+-ATPase activities cosedimented with the plasma membrane as well as specific granule and/or high density galactosyl transferase fractions. These findings suggest that Mg2+-ATPase and N-formyl chemotactic peptide receptor activities may be localized in an internal pool of membranes as well as in the plasma membrane and that Golgi may have been a contaminant of previous granulocyte plasma membrane or specific granule preparations.

Mg-ATP-dependent 45Ca2+ uptake and Ca2+-ATPase activity have been examined in isolated microsomes obtained by differential centrifugation and in purified subcellular fractions obtained by Ficoll-sucrose density centrifugation in the presence of mitochondrial inhibitors. Mg-ATP-dependent 45Ca2+ uptake increased with increasing EGTA-buffered free [Ca2+], reaching a maximum of 2 nmol 45Ca2+ X 15 min-1 X mg prot-1 at 2 mumol/1 [Ca2+] in the incubation medium. Half-maximal 45Ca2+ uptake was at approximately 0.2 mumol/1 [Ca2+]. Maximal Ca2+ -Mg2+ -ATPase activity was 130 nmol X 15 min-1 X mg prot-1 at 2 mumol/l [Ca2+], with an apparent Km of approximately 0.3 mumol/l [Ca2+]. The Ca2+ ionophore A23187 (10(-6) mol/l), the mercurial compounds mersalyl (10(-5) mol/l) and CH3ClHg (10(-3) mol/l), as well as La3+ (10(-4) mol/l), vanadate (10(-4) mol/l), and saponin (50 micrograms/mg prot), abolished Mg-ATP-promoted 45Ca2+ uptake. In the absence of Mg2+, ATP did not provoke 45Ca2+ uptake. Using the purified smooth membrane fraction (F1) from the Ficoll-sucrose density gradient (enrichment of Na+-K+-ATPase specific activity by ninefold and of NADH-cytochrome c reductase by threefold as compared with total tissue homogenate), Mg-ATP-dependent 45Ca2+ uptake correlated better with Na+-K+-ATPase (r = 0.97) than with the smooth endoplasmic marker NADH-cytochrome c reductase (r = 0.52). No correlation was found with RNA, the marker for rough endoplasmic reticulum. We conclude that pancreatic plasma membranes contain a Ca2+-Mg2+-ATPase that represents the Ca2+ extrusion system from acinar cells. It is also possible that vesicular membrane structures associated with the plasma membrane, or endocytotic plasma membrane vesicles, take up Ca2+ and represent an intracellular Ca2+ pool.
