(Na+ + K+)-ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) was purified from human cadaver renal tissue and exhibited a linear reaction rate with time. 100 g of whole kidney would yield 1--3.5 mg protein with a specific activity of 50--200 mol - kg-1 - h-1 for (Na+ + K+)-ATPase. The preparation was completely inhibited by 100 micronM ouabain with a Ki of 1.8 micronM. K+-dependent phosphatase increased during purification of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase to 7.8 mol - kg-1 - h-1. There was no detectable Mg2+-ATPase in the final preparation. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide disc gel electrophoresis yielded three protein peaks of 117 000, 92 500, and 56 000 daltons. The peptide band corresponding to 92 500 daltons underwent an Na+-dependent phosphorylation with [gamma-32P]-ATP. The band at 56 000 daltons stained for glycoprotein. The Km for ATP was 0.38 mM and that for Mg2+ was 0.5 mM. The formation of ADP and inorganic phosphate from ATP was stoichiometric. The Km for Na+ in the presence of 20 mM K+ was 16 mM and the Km for K+ in the presence of 100 mM Na+ was 1.5 mM. The temperature optimum was 51degrees C and the pH optimum was 7.0. (Na+ + K+)-ATPase in whole homogenate, microsomes, and NaI-treated microsomes exhibited a slowing of reaction rate (non-linearity) with time such that the enzyme was inactive by 10--15 min of reaction. This non-linearity was eliminated during purification. The significance is discussed.

A plasma membrane-enriched fraction was prepared from homogenized rat pancreatic islets by a one-step sucrose gradient centrifugation. Using 125I-wheat germ agglutinin as a plasma membrane probe, a fraction was obtained at a sucrose density of about 1.10 that was enriched in 5'-nucleotidase, Mg2+-ATPase and alkaline phosphatase. The fraction contained little, if any, monoamino oxidase activity, insulin or DNA. Hydrolysis of 3-0-methyl-fluoresceinphosphate was stimulated by K+ (10mM) at a pH optimum of pH 8.2. Hydrolysis of ATP-gamma-32P in the presence of MgCl2 was of high specific activity and was optimum at pH 7.0 and 8.2. K+ did not affect ATP-hydrolysis. At pH 8.2, a small fraction of the total Mg2+-ATPase activity was inhibited by ouabain in the presence of Na+ and K+. Since K+-stimulated phosphatase activity does not correlate with Mg2+-ATPase, the two assay systems define separate enzymatic processes.

The sodium-potassium activated adenosine triphosphatase (NaKATPase) activity of the rat cornea was investigated histochemically using a Pb2+-precipitation technique in which adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is used as substrate and two methods for potassium-dependent para-nitrophenyl-phosphatase (K-NPPase) activity. With all the three techniques used it was demonstrated that the sodium-potassium-activated adenosine triphosphatase (NaK-ATPase) activity is localized in the cell membranes of the endothelium whereas a much weaker activity was observed in the epithelium. When the Pb2+-technique was used, the epithelial cell membranes showed a weaker reaction in the presence of ouabain. This activity was only Mg2+-dependent and was presumably due to an Mg2+-dependent ATPase. The validity of the histochemical techniques for NaK-ATPase activity is discussed. The results emphasize the importance of the endothelium as the main site of Na+ transport in the cornea. Small amounts of the enzyme are also present in the epithelium, which seems to be rich in Mg2+-ATPase. Provided that careful controls are performed, all the methods give consistent results in the cornea.

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.

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.

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.

Most biological membranes are functionally asymmetric. To study biochemical control of cardiac transsarcolemmalion fluxes, it would be of obvious advantage to use isolated vesicles of sarcolemma which retains the low passive permeability characteristics of intact sarcolemma because in such vesicles the membrane should exhibit its normal asymmetric character with respect to enzymic activities. The purpose of this investigation was to attempt identify such vesicles in a cardiac microsomal (membrane vesicular) preparation. We studied activation by Na+ and K+ of Na+, K+-ATPase and its associated K+-phosphatase activities, using as substrates ATP or p-nitrophenylphosphate (pNPP) in the presence of Mg2+. Optimal concentrations of K+ alone (10 mM) stimulated p-nitrophenylphosphatase (pNPPase) activity 1.8-fold, and over 80% of the increase could be inhibited by ouabain. Optimal Na+ plus K+ concentrations (100 mM and 10 mM, respectively) stimulated the rate of ATP hydrolysis 2-fold, but only 11 +/- 1.1% of the increased activity was ouabain-sensitive. Optimal pretreatment with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) (0.3 mg/ml) rendered both activities completely sensitive to inhibition by ouabain and reduced the basal Mg2+-ATPase activity by 70-90%. The K+-stimulated pNPPase activity doubled after preincubation in SDS, but the ATPase activity stimulated by Na+ plus K+ fell by 50% under these conditions. A similar pattern of apparent activation was produced by preincubation with deoxycholate (DOC), except that basal Mg2+-dependent activities were resistant to destruction by this detergent. The incremental responses to activation by ions and substrates, and inhibition by oubain, are consistent with the hypothesis that permeability-intact vesicles of sarcolemma are present in the isolated preparation, and that detergent activation renders the vesicles highly permeable to the ions, substrates, and ouabain.

The regional localization of CMP-N-acetylneuramic acid hydrolase at the hepatocyte surface was studied by using plasma membranes and hepatocytes isolated from rat liver. 1. By homogenization of the rat liver plasma membrane preparations and subsequent discontinuous sucrose gradient centrifugation, one light and two heavy membrane fractions were obtained. The origin of these three subfractions is discussed based on the specific activities in the three fractions of 5'-nucleotidase, alakaline phosphatase and Mg2+-ATPase and on electron microscopic examination of the fractions. Evidence is given suggesting that the light fraction is derived from the bile canalicular surface of the plasma membrane, and that the heavy fractions are derived predominantly from the sinusoidal and lateral surfaces of the liver cell membrane. CMP-AcNeu hydrolase was present at highest specific activity in one of the heavy subfractions. Therefore it is concluded that CMP-AcNeu hdyrolase is located preferentially in the sinusoidal and/or lateral plasma membrane parts of the liver cell. 2. Experiments with intact and disintegrated hepatocytes isolated from rat liver indicated that CMP-AcNeu hydrolase is located at the surface of the cell membrane, with its functional group directed to the outside.

In order to investigate the membrane activities underlying development of neural cells, a histochemical localization of Ca2+-ATPase, Mg2+-ATPase and alkaline phosphatase (AlPase) activities in the rat cerebellar cortex during postnatal development was carried out. In the developing cerebellar cortex, ATPase activity was mainly associated with the plasma membranes of Purkinje and granular cells. This activity appeared in the immature Purkinje cells at birth and was proportionally increased throughout postnatal development. It was observed that the ATPase activity of migratory granular cells during a critical period from 3 and 15 postnatal days was increased in a funicular pattern in the developing cerebellar cortex. Conversely, peak AlPase activity in the developing cerebellar cortex was localized in the proliferative external granular cells until 7 postnatal days. Apparently, these phosphatase activities were not present in Bergmann glial fibers during the course of granular cell migration. The present findings were taken to indicate that neuronal cells in the cerebellar cortex have acquired a membrane-bound ATPase which can participate in Ca2+ transport or ATP metabolism during the course of early postnatal development.

The possibility of quantifying the total concentration of Ca2+-dependent Mg2+-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum was investigated by measurement of the Ca2+-dependent steady-state phosphorylation from [gamma-32P]ATP and the Ca2+-dependent 3-O-methylfluorescein phosphatase (3-O-MFPase) activity in crude muscle homogenates. The Ca2+-dependent phosphorylation at 0 degree C (mean +/- S.E.) was 40.0 +/- 2.5 (n = 6) and 6.2 +/- 0.7 (n = 4) nmol/g wet wt. in rat extensor digitorum longus (EDL) and soleus muscle, respectively (P less than 0.001). The Ca2+-dependent 3-O-MFPase activity at 37 degrees C was 1424 +/- 238 (n = 6) and 335 +/- 56 (n = 4) nmol/min per g wet wt. in rat EDL and soleus muscle, respectively (P less than 0.01). The molecular activity calculated from these measurements amounted to 35 +/- 5 min-1 (n = 6) and 55 +/- 10 min-1 (n = 4) for EDL and soleus muscle respectively. These values were not different from the molecular activity calculated for purified Ca2+-ATPase (36 min-1). The Ca2+-dependent 32P incorporation in soleus muscle decreased in the order mice greater than rats greater than guinea pigs. In EDL muscles from hypothyroid rats at a 30% reduction of the Ca2+-dependent phosphorylation was observed. The Ca2+-dependent phosphorylation in vastus lateralis muscle from three human subjects amounted to 4.5 +/- 0.8 nmol/g wet wt. It is concluded that measurement of the Ca2+-dependent phosphorylation allows rapid and reproducible quantification of the concentration of Ca2+-dependent Mg2+-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum. Since only 20-60 mg of tissue is required for the measurements, the method can also be used for biopsies obtained in clinical studies.
