1. The bound nucleotides of the beef-heart mitochondrial ATPase (F1) are lost during cold inactivation followed by (NH4)2SO4 precipitation. The release of tightly bound ATP parallels the loss of ATPase activity during this process. 2. During cold inactivation, the sedimentation coefficient (s20, w) of the ATPase first declines from 12.1 S to 9 S, then to 3.5 S. (NH4)2SO4 precipitation of the 9-S component also leads to dissociation into subunits with s20, w of 3.5 S. 3. The 9-S component still contains the bound nucleotides, which are removed when it dissociated into smaller subunits. 4. Reactivation of cold-inactivated ATPase by incubation at 30 degrees C is increased by the presence of 25% glycerol. ATP, however, does not have any clearcut effect on the degree of reactivation in the presence of glycerol. 5. ADP is an inhibitor of the reactivation, probably because it exchanges during reactivation for bound ATP giving rise to an inactive 12-S component. 6. The exchange of tightly bound nucleotides with added adenine nucleotides is more extensive and faster with cold-inactivated ATPase than with the native enzyme. During reactivation up to 1.6 moles of ATP and 1.0 mole ADP can exchange per mole enzyme. 7. Incubation with GTP, CTP or inorganic pyrophosphate induces an increased activity of the ATPase, which, however, soon declines in the presence of ATP. It also disappears on precipitation of GTP-treated enzyme with (NH4)2SO4.

Beef heart mitochondrial ATPase (F1) contained 2 mol of ADP and 1 mol of ATP/mol of enzyme, which resisted removal by Sephadex chromatography with dilute buffers or repeated precipitation with ammonium sulfate. The native enzyme also contained two apparently equivalent binding sites, which participated in readily reversible binding of adenyl-5'-ylimidodiphosphate (AMP-P(NH)P), with a Kd of 1.3 mum. The failure of AMP-P(NH)P to compete effectively with ADP for binding sites on F1 may be related to the failure of the analog to inhibit oxidative phosphorylation. Virtually complete removal of all adenine nucleotides from F1 occurred when the enzyme was chromatographed on columns of Sephadex equilibrated with 50% glycerol. No loss in ATPase activity was observed following removal of nucleotides from the enzyme, which was then capable of binding more than 4 mol of ADP and almost 5 mol of AMP-P(NH)P/mol of protein. Subsequent chromatography on columns of Sephadex equilibrated with dilute buffers containing Mg2+ removed only 1.5 mol of ADP and no AMP-P(NH)P from the enzyme. Reconstitution of F1 with ADP or with almost 5 mol of AMP-P(NH)P resulted in preparations that exhibited an undiminished capacity to restore oxidative phosphorylation in F1-deficient submitochondrial particles.

Mitochondrial ATPase from rat liver mitochondria contains multiple nucleotide binding sites. At low concentrations ADP binds with high affinity (1 mole/mole ATPase, KD = 1-2 muM). At high concentrations, ADP inhibits ATP hydrolysis presumably by competing with ATP for the active site (KI = 240-300 muM). As isolated, mitochondrial ATPase contains between 0.6 and 2.5 moles ATP/mole ATPase. This "tightly bound" ATP can be removed by repeated precipitations with ammonium sulfate without altering hydrolytic activity of the enzyme. However, the ATP-depleted enzyme must be redissolved in high concentrations of phosphate to retain activity. AMP-PNP (adenylyl imidodiphosphate) replaces tightly bound ATP removed from the enzyme and inhibits ATP hydrolysis. AMP-PNP has little effect on high affinity binding of ADP. Kinetics studies of ATP hydrolysis reveal hyperbolic velocity vs. ATP plots, provided assays are done in bicarbonate buffer or buffers containing high concentrations of phosphate. Taken together, these studies indicate that sites on the enzyme not directly associated with ATP hydrolysis bind ATP or ADP, and that in the absence of bound nucleotide, Pi can maintain the active form of the enzyme.

The tightly bound nucleotides of the beff-heart mitochondrial ATPase are released during cold inactivation followed by ammonium sulfate precipitation. During incubation at 0 degrees C the sedimentation coefficient (S20W) of the ATPase first declines from 12.1S to 9S. Prolonged incubation or precipitation with ammonium sulfate leads to dissociation of the 9S component into subunits with S20W of 3.5S. The 9S component still bears bound nucleotides which exchange more extensively and rapidly with added nucleotides than those bound to the active 12.1S component. The bound nucleotides are lost when the 9S form dissociates into the smaller subunits. Thus, firm binding of nucleotides is a property of the quarternary structure of the enzyme. The exchangeability of the nucleotides bound to the ATPase of chloroplast membranes is greatly increased in membranes illuminated in the presence of pyocyanine. Pi can exchange into both the beta and gamma positions of the bound nucleotides when the membranes are energized in the presence of Mg2+. The exchange of the nucleotides and the incorporation of Pi are insensitive to the inhibitor Dio-9 but are inhibited by the uncoupler S13. This inhibition by S13 parallels that of the inhibition of photosynthetic phosphorylation. These findings are discussed with regard to our hypothesis that electron transfer causes release of preformed tightly bound ATP from the ATPase by inducing a conformational change.

Soluble mitochondrial ATPase (F1) from beef heart prepared in this laboratory contained approximately 1.8 mol of ADP and 0 mol of ATP/mol of F1 which were not removed by repeated precipitation of the enzyme with ammonium sulfate solution or by gel filtration in low ionic strength buffer containing EDTA. This enzyme had full coupling activity. Treatment of the enzyme with trypsin (5 mug/mg of F1 for 3 min) reduced the "tightly bound" ADP to zero, abolished coupling activity, but had no effect on the ATPase activity, stability, or membrane-binding capability of the F1. When the trypsin concentration was varied between 0 and 5 mug/mg of F1, tightly bound ADP was removed to varying degrees, and a correlation was seen between amount of residual tightly bound ADP and residual coupling activity. Gel filtration of the native F1 in high ionic strength buffer containing EDTA also caused complete loss of tightly bound ADP and coupling ability, whereas ATPase activity, stability, and membrane-binding capability were retained. The ADP-depleted F1 preparations were unable to rebind normal amounts of ADP or any ATP in simple reloading experiments. The results strongly suggest that tightly bound ADP is required for ATP synthesis and for energy-coupled ATP hydrolysis on F1. The results also suggest that ATP synthesis and energy-linked ATP hydrolysis rather than involving one nucleotide binding site on F1, involve a series or "cluster" of sites. The ATP hydrolysis site may represent one component of this cluster. The results show that nonenergy-coupled ATP hydrolysis on F1 can occur in the absence of tightly bound ADP or ATP.

The homogeneous rat liver F1-ATPase preparation of Catterall and Pedersen (Catterall, W.A., and Pedersen, P.L. (1971) J. Biol. Chem. 246, 4987-4994) has been crystallized from a solution containing phosphate and ATP by precipitation with ammonium sulfate. Most of the resultant crystals are cubes of approximately 0.3 to 0.6 mm per side. X-ray precession photographs show that the crystals are rhombohedral, space group R32 (D37 NO155) with hexagonal cell dimensions a = 148 A, c = 368 A. The molecular weight of the asymmetric unit of the crystals is 190,000 or about half the molecular weight (384,000) of the rat liver enzyme indicating that the crystallographic 2-fold axes of symmetry coincide with a molecular symmetry axis. The crystals diffract to at least 3.5 A and therefore this is the first report of an ATPase preparation in which crystals suitable for x-ray analysis have been obtained.

The fluorogenic reagent fluorescamine has been used to determine the labeling patterns of Type C spinach chloroplast membrane polypeptides. Membrane polypeptides labeled with fluorescamine were detected by scanning high resolution sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gradient slab gels for fluorescence emission. Three membrane polypeptides show a decrease in the extent of labeling when chloroplast membranes are labeled in the light compared to when they are labeled in the dark. These polypeptides have apparent molecular weights 0f 32 000, 23 000 and 15 000. The decrease in labeling observed in the light is abolished or reduced by treatments which inactivate the light-generated transmembrane pH gradient. CF1-depleted chloroplasts show neither a light-activated pH gradient nor a light/dark difference in labeling of these three polypeptides. Both a light-activated pH gradient and light/dark difference in labeling are observed in CF1-depleted chloroplasts which have been treated with N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. The same ammonium sulfate fractions of a 2% sodium cholate extract, which are believed to be enriched in the membrane-bound sector of the chloroplast ATPase (CFo) are also found to be enriched in the 32 000, 23 000 and 15 000 molecular weight polypeptides. The three polypeptides are believed to be components of CFo, and the light/dark labeling differences may indicate conformational changes within CFo. Such conformational changes may reflect a mechanism which couples light-generated proton gradients to ATP synthesis.

A simple technique of purification of the soluble pig heart mitochondrial F1-ATPase is described. It consists of removal of extrinsic proteins from mitochondrial membranes before extraction with chloroform and ammonium sulfate fractionation. A high degree of purity, an excellent stability and a good yield are attained after gel filtration through an Ultrogel ACA 34 column equilibrated in the presence of 50% glycerol. The tested properties of the F1-ATPase prepared by this method are similar to those of the same enzyme extracted by sonication. The enzyme is virtually devoid of tightly bound nucleotides. In addition, some characteristics of the behaviour of the beta subunit are shown.

Oligomycin sensitivity-conferring protein (OSCP) is a water-soluble subunit of bovine heart mitochondrial H(+)-ATPase (F1-F0). In order to investigate the requirement of OSCP for passive proton conductance through mitochondrial F0, OSCP-depleted membrane preparations were obtained by extracting purified F1-F0 complexes with 4.0 M urea. The residual complexes, referred to as UF0, were found to be deficient with respect to OSCP, as well as alpha, beta, and gamma subunits of F1-ATPase, but had a full complement of coupling factor 6 as judged by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and Western blotting techniques. These UF0 complexes had no intrinsic ATPase activity and were able to bind nearly the same amount of F1-ATPase in the presence of either OSCP or NH4+ ions alone, or a combination of the two. However, the preparations exhibited an absolute dependency on OSCP for conferral of oligomycin sensitivity to membrane-bound ATPase. The passive proton conductance in UF0 proteoliposomes was measured by time-resolved quenching of 9-amino-6-chloro-2-methoxyacridine or 9-aminoacridine fluorescence following a valinomycin-induced K(+)-diffusion potential. The data clearly establish that OSCP is not a necessary component of the F0 proton channel nor is its presence required for conductance blockage by the inhibitors oligomycin or dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. Furthermore, OSCP does not prevent or block passive H+ leakage. Comparisons of OSCP with the F1-F0 subunits from Escherichia coli and chloroplast lead us to suggest that mitochondrial OSCP is, both structurally and functionally, a hybrid between the beta and delta subunits of the prokaryotic systems.

The F1F0-ATP synthase from the alkaliphilic Bacillus firmus OF4 was purified in a reconstitutively active form, in good yield and with a high specific ATPase activity when appropriately activated. The purification procedure involved octyl glucoside extraction of washed membrane vesicles in the presence of 20% glycerol and asolectin followed by ammonium sulfate fractionation and sucrose density gradient centrifugation. The purified preparation was resolved into seven bands by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, corresponding to the five F1 subunits, alpha, beta, gamma, delta, and epsilon, and to the b and c subunits of the F0. Two-dimensional sodium dodecyl sulfate-poly-acrylamide gel analysis revealed a candidate for the alpha subunit of F0. The MgATPase activity of B. firmus OF4 F1F0 was barely detectable but could be stimulated, optimally more than 100-fold, by sulfite, methanol, and octyl thioglucoside. The enzyme was inhibited by N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and sodium azide, but not by aurovertin, an inhibitor of the F1 from Escherichia coli. The F1F0 reconstituted into proteoliposomes catalyzed ATPase activity, ATP-Pi exchange, and ATP-dependent delta pH and delta psi formation. ATP hydrolysis was stimulated by protonophores while the other activities were abolished by protonophores. These activities were neither dependent on added sodium ions nor significantly affected by them. F1F0 proteoliposomes made from crude octyl glucoside extracts that also contained the Na+/H+ antiporter were shown to catalyze ATP-dependent Na+ uptake that was completely sensitive to carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenyl-hydrazone; Na+ uptake activity was absent in proteoliposomes containing more purified F1F0 but lacking the Na+/H+ antiporter. These data show that the F1F0 translocates protons and does not substitute Na+ for H+ in energy coupling.
