The beta-subunit of mitochondrial ATPase is coded by a nuclear gene, synthesized outside the mitochondria as a larger precursor and imported into mitochondria. The beta-subunit precursor was purified from yeast, both as a homogeneous, unlabeled polypeptide and in radiochemically pure form. Both precursor preparations were cleaved to the mature beta-subunit by partially purified processing protease from the mitochondrial matrix. However, import of the radiochemically pure precursor into isolated yeast mitochondria required a cytosolic fraction from yeast or reticulocytes. The cytosolic factor was non-dialyzable and trypsin-sensitive; its apparent mol. wt. was approximately 40 000 as judged by gel filtration. Import of some proteins into mitochondria thus requires proteins of the 'soluble' cytoplasm.

The binding of "oligomycin sensitivity conferring protein" (OSCP) to soluble beef-heart mitochondrial ATPase (F1) has been investigated. OSCP forms a stable complex with F1, and the F1 X OSCP complex is capable of restoring oligomycin- and DCCD-sensitive ATPase activity to F1- and OSCP-depleted submitochondrial particles. The F1 X OSCP complex retains 50% of its ATPase activity upon cold exposure while free F1 is inactivated by 90% or more. Both free F1 and the F1 X OSCP complex release upon cold exposure a part--probably 1 out of 3--of their beta subunits; whether alpha subunits are also lost is uncertain. The cold-treated F1 X OSCP complex is still capable of restoring oligomycin- and DCCD-sensitive ATPase activity to F1- and OSCP-depleted particles. OSCP also protects F1 against modification of its alpha subunit by mild trypsin treatment. This finding together with the earlier demonstration that trypsin-modified F1 cannot bind OSCP indicates that OSCP binds to the alpha subunit of F1 and that F1 contains three binding sites for OSCP. The results are discussed in relation to the possible role of OSCP in the interaction of F1 with the membrane sector of the mitochondrial ATPase system.

We have isolated an outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM) fraction from baker's yeast. Saccharomyces cerevisiae, that possesses porin activity and contains a major polypeptide of 29,000 daltons. By analogy to similar data for an OMM fraction from rat liver and mung bean [Zalman, L. S., Nikaido, N. & Kagawa, Y. (1980) J. Biol. Chem. 255, 1771-1774], the 29,000-dalton polypeptide of the isolated yeast OMM fraction has been tentatively identified as porin. Evidence to substantiate this identification was provided by the finding that both the porin activity and the 29,000-dalton polypeptide were entirely resistant when the OMM fraction was exposed to trypsin digestion, with the 29,000-dalton polypeptide being virtually the only polypeptide in the OMM fraction to be unaffected by trypsin digestion. There was no protection when trypsin digestion was carried out in the presence of detergent. Using monospecific antibodies, we have shown that yeast porin is apparently not synthesized as a larger precursor in a cell-free translation system. In vitro-synthesized porin could not be integrated into dog pancreas microsomal vesicles or into an isolated OMM fraction from yeast, either co- or posttranslationally. In vitro-synthesized porin, however, could be integrated posttranslationally into whole isolated mitochondria. This membrane specificity suggests that integration does not proceed by unassisted partitioning. The integration of porin into whole mitochondria occurred with fidelity by the criterion of its resistance to trypsin. Moreover, integration was not inhibited in the presence of the protonophore carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenyl-hydrazone whereas translocation into the mitochondrial matrix of the in vitro-synthesized gamma subunit of F1-ATPase was inhibited.

During net nucleoside triphosphate synthesis by chloroplast ATP synthase the extent of water oxygen incorporation into each nucleoside triphosphate released increases with decrease in ADP, GDP or IDP concentration. Likewise, during net ATP hydrolysis by the Mg2+-activated chloroplast ATPase, the extent of water oxygen incorporation into each Pi released increases as the ATP, GTP, or ITP concentration is decreased. However, the concentration ranges in which substrate modulation occurs differs with each nucleotide. Modulation of oxygen exchange during synthesis and hydrolysis of adenine nucleotides, as measured by variation in the extent of water oxygen incorporation into products, occurs below 250 microM. In contrast, guanosine and inosine nucleotides alter the extent of exchange at higher and much wider concentration ranges. Activation of the chloroplast ATPase by either heat or trypsin results in similar catalytic behavior as monitored by ATP modulation of oxygen exchanges during hydrolysis in the presence of Mg2+. More exchange capacity is evident with octylglucoside-activated enzyme at all ATP concentrations. High levels of tentoxin were also found to alter the catalytic exchange parameters resulting in continued water oxygen exchange into Pi released during hydrolysis at high ATP concentrations. Little or no oxygen exchange accompanies ATP hydrolysis in the presence of Ca2+. The [18O]Pi species formed from highly gamma-18O-labeled ATP at lower ATP concentrations gives a distribution as expected if only one catalytic pathway is operative at a given ATP concentration. This and other results support the concept of catalytic cooperativity between alternating sites as explanation for the modulation of oxygen exchange by nucleotide concentration.

The H+-translocating ATPase from rat liver mitochondria can be disaggregated selectively to yield two distinct, stable complexes of the rutamycin-insensitive ATPase. The two ATPase complexes can be purified to homogeneity by zone sedimentation in a glycerol gradient. Based on their electrophoretic mobility in 5% polyacrylamide gels, the aggregates have been designated as type I (Rf = 0.49) ATPase and type II (Rf = 0.56) ATPase. These two complexes of the ATPase differ in ATP hydrolytic activity, in stability, in mobility on 5% polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, in subunit composition, and in ability to reassociate with submitochondrial particles which are highly depleted in ATPase activity. The type II ATPase is similar to the F1-ATPase, but the type I ATPase contains a 26.5-kilodalton subunit not present in the type II enzyme. This 26.5-kilodalton subunit is equimolar with the gamma subunit of the ATPase (based on Coomassie blue dye binding); its presence seems to be correlated to the altered properties of the type I ATPase. Type I ATPase reconstitutes rutamycin-sensitive ATPase activity in submitochondrial particles treated with trypsin, urea, ammonia, and 1.5% silicotungstic acid. The type II ATPase does not reconstitute rutamycin-sensitive ATPase activity in these ATPase-depleted submitochondrial particles unless it is supplemented with the 26.5-kilodalton subunit isolated from the type I ATPase. The 26.5-kilodalton protein has thus been functionally identified as important for the binding of the ATPase to the membrane by providing a direct link to the membrane or by binding to the ATPase putting it in an appropriate conformation for binding.

A comparison was made of the subunit sensitivities of the F1-ATPase and the Triton-solubilized ATPase complex to trypsin degradation. The dissociation of the F1-ATPase from ATPase complex increased the trypsin sensitivity of subunit 3 by a factor of 2 and increased the sensitivity of a particular trypsin site (or group of sites) on subunit 1 by 7-fold. The overall degradation of subunits 1 and 2 appears to be the same in solubilized ATPase complex and the F1-ATPase. Implications of these findings for structural models of the ATPase complex are discussed.

The yeast nuclear mutant, pet 936, has previously been shown to be defective in the assembly of a functional mitochondrial ATPase (Todd, R. D., McAda, P. C., and Douglas, M. G. (1979) J. Biol. Chem. 254, 11134-11141). In the present report, trypsin degradation and subunit-specific antibody binding have been used to localize subunits 1, 2, and 3 external to or associated with the outer aspect of the inner mitochondrial membrane in the mutant strain. A similar population of unassembled subunits was found in the parental strain as well. Isotope dilution experiments are compatible with those unassembled subunits being normal intermediates in the assembly pathway of the ATPase complex which are blocked from transport across the inner mitochondrial membrane in the mutant, pet 936.

Previous work has shown that mild trypsin treatment eliminates energy-transduction capability and tight (non-exchangeable)nucleotide binding in beef heart mitochondrial F1-ATPase (Leimgruber, R.M. and Senior, A.E. (1976) J. Biol. Chem. 251, 7103-7109). The structural change brought about by trypsin was, however, too subtle to be identified by one-dimensional sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and was not defined. In this work we have applied two-dimensional electrophoresis (isoelectric focussing then sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gradient electrophoresis) to the problem, and have determined that the alpha-subunit of F1 is altered by the mild trypsin treatment, whereas no change was detected in beta-, gamma-, delta- or epsilon-subunits. Binding of ADP to the trypsin-treated F1 was compared to binding to control enzyme over a range of 0-40 muM ADP in a 30 min incubation period. There was no difference between the two enzymes, KADPd in Mg2+ -containing buffer was about 2 muM in each. Since the tight (nonexchangeable)sites are abolished in trypsin-treated F1, this shows that tight exchangeable ADP-binding sites are different from the tight nonexchangeable ADP-binding sites. There was no effect of trypsin cleavage of the alpha-subunit on beta-subunit conformation as judged by aurovertin fluorescence studies. The cleavage of the alpha-subunit which occurred was judged to occur very close to the C- or N-terminus of the subunit and constitutes therefore a small and specific chemical modification which abolishes overall function in F1 but leaves partial functions intact.

High pressure column chromatography was applied to estimate the bound nucleotides on F1-ATPase. In this way, various species of adenine nucleotide in 0.1 to 0.3 mg of enzyme protein were well separated and estimated with a precision of about 10 nmol within 10 min. ATPase in submitochondrial particles contained 2 mol of ATP and 1 to 2 mol of ADP. The nucleotide content and binding nature of the enzyme varied at different stages of purification, but a total of four binding sites were found in enzyme preparations at all steps. Highly purified enzyme had two tight binding sites for ATP and two loose binding sites, one for ATP and one for ADP. The tight binding of ADP observed in submitochondrial particles was reconstituted by continuous supply of ATP and Mg2+ to the purified enzyme. Removal and rebinding of the nucleotides did not affect ATP-hydrolyzing activity but caused conformational changes of the enzyme, as demonstrated by measuring cold-lability and trypsin digestion. An analog of ATP, AMPP(NH)P, was found to bind to loose binding sites of the purified enzyme with 2 mol of tightly bound ATP, and to inhibit ATP-hydrolyzing activity competitively. The analog also bound to the tight sites under special conditions, protecting the enzyme against cold inactivation. During enzymatic hydrolysis of [3H]ATP, labeled ATP and ADP were both bound at the loose sites, but only slight amounts of these nucleotides were bound to the tight sites. From these results it is inferred that the loose sites are catalytic, while the tight sites are not.

The hydrophobic sector of the mitochondrial ATPase complex was purified by sequential extraction with cholate and octylglucoside, by further differential solubilization with guanidine and cholate in the presence of phosphatidylcholine, and by fractionation with ammonium sulfate. A polypeptide with a mass of 28,000 dalton was present in the purified hydrophobic section which was cleaved by trypsin, resulting in loss of reconstitution activity. In contrast, dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-binding proteolipid remained unimpaired after exposure to trypsin. The 32Pi-ATP exchange activity of the reconstituted ATPase complex was inhibited by p-hydroxymercuribenzoate, which reacted primarily with the 28,000-dalton protein, as monitored by acrylamide gel electrophoresis with 14C-labeled inhibitor. The function of a 22,000-dalton polypeptide and of some minor components in the region of the proteolipid remains unknown. An examination of the phospholipid requirements for reconstitution of an active complex revealed an unexpected discrepancy. With an excess of phosphatidylethanolamine, optimal reconstitution of 32Pi-ATP exchange and ATP synthesis in the presence of bacteriorhodopsin and light was achieved: at a high phosphatidylcholine:phosphatidylethanolamine ratio, the rate of ATP synthesis remained high, but the rate of 32Pi-ATP exchange dropped precipitously. A new procedure is described for the reconstitution of the ATPase complex with purified phospholipids which is stable for at least 15 days.
