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.

The influence of various bile acids on the (Na+-K+)-ATPase and Mg2+-ATPase activity of rat colon is described. At a concentration of 0.6 mmol/l C and TC did not inhibit the (Na+-K+)-ATPase activity in contrast to GC. The taurine derivates TC, TCDC and TDC did not influence or even enhanced the (Na+-K+)-ATPase activity. All bile acids except C, TC and CDC depressed the Mg2+-ATPase activity. At higher concentrations only C and TC did not influence the (Na+-K+)-ATPase activity. C, GC and TC at 2.5 mmol/l decreased the (Na+-K+)-activated phosphatase with ATP as substrate. All other substrates tested did not influence the enzymic activity significantly. The results indicate that bile acids can inhibit the Na+-absorbing system in rat colon. Hence this inhibition can cause diarrhea.

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.

A myosin B-like protein was extracted from the alga Nitella flexilis. SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed the presence of myosin heavy chain and actin as the main components. At high ionic strength, its ATPase [EC 3.6.1.3] reaction was activated by EDTA or Ca2+ and inhibited by Mg2+. At low ionic strength, superprecipitation was induced by the addition of ATP. Myosin was purified from Nitella myosin B. The molecular weight of the heavy chain of Nitella myosin, estimated by SDS-gel electrophoresis, was slightly higher than that of skeletal muscle myosin. At low ionic strength, Nitella myosin aggregated to form bipolar filaments about 0.2 micron long. At high ionic strength, its ATPase reaction was activated by EDTA or Ca2+, and inhibited by Mg2+. The Mg2+-ATPase reaction of Nitella myosin was activated by skeletal muscle F-actin.

We have purified a cofactor protein previously shown (Pollard, T. D., and Korn, E. D. (1973) J. Biol. Chem. 248, 4691-4697) to be required for actin activation of the Mg2+-ATPase activity of Acanthamoeba myosin I. The purified cofactor protein is a novel myosin kinase that phosphorylates the single heavy chain, but neither of the two light chains, of Acanthamoeba myosin I. Phosphorylation of Acanthamoeba myosin I by the purified cofactor protein requires ATP and Mg2+ but is Ca2+-independent. The Mg2+-ATPase activity of phosphorylated Acanthamoeba myosin I is highly activated by F-actin in the absence of cofactor protein. Actin-activated Mg2+-ATPase activity is lost when phosphorylated Acanthamoeba myosin I is dephosphorylated by platelet phosphatase. Phosphorylation and dephosphorylation have no effect on the (K+,EDTA)-ATPase and Ca2+-ATPase activities of Acanthamoeba myosin I. These results show that cofactor protein is an Acanthamoeba myosin I heavy chain kinase and that phosphorylation of the heavy chain of this myosin is required for actin activation of its Mg2+-ATPase activity.

Erythrocytes and their isolated membranes display ATP-dependent endocytosis. To localize the enzymes responsible for this phenomenon, the erythrocyte membranes (ghosts) were fractionated under conditions which retained ATPase activity. Fractionation of the ghosts resulted in three fractions: spectrin-actin, the peripheral proteins soluble in high salt, and the smooth membrane containing integral proteins. On the average, 87% of the protein and 88% of the phosphorus of the original ghosts were recovered in these fractions, and all of the kinds of ATP-splitting activities of the membrane were recovered in the smooth membrane. A tiny ATPase activity, detectable by special methodology in spectrinactin, could have been due to contamination with membranous material. Although the purified spectrin-actin did not have a significant ATPase of its own, it stimulated the Ca2+, Mg2+-ATPase of the smooth membrane significantly, suggesting a cooperative interaction between these two fractions. This segregation of the ATPase activities into the smooth membrane, combined with the energy dependence of endocytosis, showed that the smooth membrane must be involved in the energy production for endocytosis. The possibility that the spectrin-actin filaments cooperate with a myosinlike ATPase in the membrane to generate membrane movements is discussed.

The 20K dalton fragment of Ca2+ + Mg2+-ATPase obtained from th tryptically digested sarcoplasmic reticulum has been further purified using Bio-Gel P-100. This removed low-molecular-weight UV-absorbing and positive Lowry-reacting contaminants. The ionophoric activity of the 20K fragment in both oxidized cholesterol and phosphatidylcholine:cholesterol membranes is unaltered by this further purification. The 20K selectivity sequence in phosphatidylcholine:cholesterol membrane is Ba2+ greater than Ca2+ greater than Sr2+ greater than Mn2+ Mg2+. Digestion of intact sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles with trypsin, which results in the dissection of the hydrolytic site (30K) from the ionophoric site (20K), is shown to disrupt energy transduction between ATP hydrolysis and calcium transport. This further implicates the 20K dalton fragment as a calcium transport site. These data and previous evidence are discussed in terms of a proposed model for the ATPase molecular structure and the mechanisms of cation transport in sarcoplasmic reticulum.

The synthesis, proof of structure, and biological activity of some new steroidal 17beta-formyl guanylhydrazones are described. The guanylhydrazones of nondigitalis-like steroids inhibited myocardial Na+,K+-ATPase but had only a depressant effect on myocardial contractility. By comparison, the corresponding guanylhydrazone of a digitalis-like steroid gave a positive inotropic effect in concentrations that also inhibited Na+,K+-ATPase. The nondigitalis-like guanylhydrazones also inhibited membrane Mg2+-ATPase and this may infer that the compounds act nonspecifically by membrane stabilization rather than by interaction with stereoselective receptors. Biological activity was determined in the guinea pig.

1. Tropomyosin, one of the regulatory proteins in muscle contraction, was prepared from chickens, rabbits, frogs, shrimps, and shellfish, and conserved characteristics were studied using an enzymological technique. 2. All tropomyosins tested, irrespective of their sources, were found to have the ability to mediate the inhibitory activity of rabbit troponin toward rabbit Mg2+-activated actomyosin ATPase (Mg2+-ATPase) activity in the absence of Ca2+ ions. 3. The effect of tropomyosin on the Mg2+-ATPase activity in the presence of Ca2+ ions varied, depending on the source, and this variation appeared to reflect the evolutionary course of this protein. 4. Tropomyosin from shellfish adductor muscle had the ability to bind to rabbit skeletal muscle troponin and actin. This ability is also considered to be a basic characteristic of tropomyosin which has been conserved during evolution.
