A heat-stable protein has been purified from rat liver mitochondria which inhibits the ATP hydrolytic activity of both the soluble and membrane-bound mitochondrial F1-ATPase. The overall purification is about 2400-fold with the major purification step consisting of Sephadex "affinity" chromatography. The purified rat liver inhibitor is homogeneous as assessed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis with an apparent molecular weight of 12,300. Amino acid analysis reveals a high content of glutamic acid, lysine, and arginine and the absence of cysteine, proline and methionine. Whether tested with the rat liver or bovine heart ATPase, the liver inhibitor is equally as potent and specific as the heart inhibitor preparation of Pullman and Monroy (Pullman, M.E., and Monroy, G.C. (1963) J. Biol. Chem. 238, 3762-3769). Although the results presented show that the rat liver ATPase inhibitor resembles closely the ATPase inhibitors from other tissues with respect to specific activity and reaction specificity, it is important to note that the rat liver inhibitor is almost 2000 daltons larger than the bovine heart inhibitor, about 5000 daltons larger than ATPase inhibitors of yeast, and contains significantly more lysine residues than both the bovine heart and yeast inhibitors.

Antibodies to defined epitopes on the human ATP synthase would provide a powerful tool in the definition of the subunit composition of the enzyme complex and in the characterization of any defect in its assembly in diseases associated with mitochondrial disorders. Antibodies have been thus raised against synthetic peptides, corresponding to two regions on the human ATP synthase beta-subunit: the C-terminal region, and a region which includes the two dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD)-reactive glutamic acid residues suggested to be involved in the enzyme catalytic activity. The antibodies to the C-terminal peptide reacted with the ATP synthase beta-subunit in ELISA, in Western immunoblotting and in immunohistochemical experiments, and had the ability to immunoprecipitate the enzyme complex. The antibodies to the DCCD-binding region peptide did not react to the ATP synthase beta-subunit in its native configuration, although reacted well under Western immunoblotting conditions.

An endogenous ATPase inhibitor protein has been identified and isolated for the first time from plant mitochondria. The inhibitor protein was isolated from potato (Solanum tuberosum) tuber mitochondria and purified to homogeneity. The isolated inhibitor is a heat-stable, trypsin-sensitive, basic protein, with a molecular mass approximately 8.3 kDa. Amino acid analysis reveals a high content of glutamic acid, lysine and arginine and the absence of proline; threonine and leucine. The interaction of the inhibitor with F1-ATPase requires the presence of Mg2(+)-ATP in the incubation medium. The ATPase activity of isolated F1 is inhibited to 50% in the presence of 14 micrograms inhibitor/mg F1. A stoichiometry of 1.3 mol inhibitor/mol F1 for complete inhibition can be calculated from this value. The potato ATPase inhibitor is also a potent inhibitor of the ATPase activity of the isolated yeast F1. The inhibitor resembles the ATPase inhibitors of yeast and mammalian mitochondria, and does not seem to be related to the inhibitory peptide, epsilon subunit, of chloroplast ATPase.

We have isolated a cDNA clone encoding the precursor of the beta-subunit of the bovine heart mitochondrial F1-ATPase. Two probes were used to isolate this precursor from a bovine heart cDNA library. One probe was a mixed-sequence oligonucleotide directed against a portion of the amino acid sequence of the mature protein, and the other probe was the F1-ATPase beta-subunit gene from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Determination of the nucleotide sequence of this cDNA reveals that it contains a 1584-nucleotide-long open reading frame that encodes the complete mature beta-subunit protein and a 48 amino acid long NH2-terminal extension. This amino-terminal presequence contains four basic arginine residues, one acidic glutamic acid residue, four polar uncharged serine residues, and five proline residues. Southern blot hybridization analyses suggest that the bovine F1-ATPase beta-subunit precursor is encoded by a single genetic locus. RNA blot hybridization analyses reveal a single mRNA species of approximately 1.9 kilobases from both bovine liver and heart.

The inactivation of the bovine heart mitochondrial F1-ATPase with 1-(ethoxycarbonyl)-2-ethoxy-1,2-dihydroquinoline (EEDQ) in the presence of [3H]aniline at pH 7.0 led to the covalent incorporation of 3H into the enzyme. When the ATPase was inactivated by 94% with 0.9 mM EEDQ in the presence of 3.6 mM [3H]aniline in a large-scale experiment in which the protein concentration was 21 mg/ml, 4.2 mol [3H]anilide were formed per mol enzyme, of which 0.35 mol was incorporated per mol of the alpha subunit and 1.0 mol was incorporated per mol of the beta subunit. Examination of a tryptic digest of the isolated alpha subunit revealed that the majority of the 3H was contained in a single tryptic peptide, which, when purified, was shown to contain the [3H]anilide of a glutamic acid residue which corresponds to alpha-Glu-402 of the Escherichia coli F1-ATPase. This residue was labeled to the extent of about 1.0 mol/mol enzyme. Analysis of tryptic peptides purified from the isolated beta subunit showed that 0.8 and 1.5 mol, respectively, of the [3H]anilides of beta-Glu-341 and beta-Glu-199 were formed per mol MF1 during the inactivation of the enzyme at 21 mg/ml. When the ATPase was inactivated by 90% at a protein concentration of 1.7 mg/ml by 0.9 mM EEDQ in the presence of 1.7 mM [3H]aniline, 3.1 mol [3H]anilide were formed per mol enzyme. From the analysis of the radioactive peptides purified from a tryptic digest of the labeled ATPase from this experiment it was estimated that 0.7 mol of the [3H]anilide of alpha-Glu-402, 0.3 mol of the [3H]anilide of beta-Glu-341, and 1.5 mol of the [3H]anilide of beta-Glu-199 were formed per mol F1-ATPase. Since beta-Glu-199 is labeled to the same extent in the two experiments while alpha-Glu-402 and beta-Glu-341 were not, suggests that the modification of beta-Glu-199 is responsible for inactivation of the enzyme by EEDQ.

The enzyme complex F1-ATPase has been isolated from bovine heart mitochondria by gel filtration of the enzyme released by chloroform from sub-mitochondrial particles. The five individual subunits alpha, beta, gamma, delta and epsilon that comprise the complex have been purified from it, and their amino acid sequences determined almost entirely by direct protein sequence analysis. A single overlap in the gamma-subunit was obtained by DNA sequence analysis of a complementary DNA clone isolated from a bovine cDNA library using a mixture of 32 oligonucleotides as the hybridization probe. The alpha, beta, gamma, delta and epsilon subunits contain 509, 480, 272, 146 and 50 amino acids, respectively. Two half cystine residues are present in the alpha-subunit and one in each of the gamma- and epsilon-chains; they are absent from the beta- and delta-subunits. The stoichiometry of subunits in the complex is estimated to be alpha 3 beta 3 gamma 1 delta 1 epsilon 1 and the molecular weight of the complex is 371,135. Mild trypsinolysis of the F1-ATPase complex, which has little effect on the hydrolytic activity of the enzyme, releases peptides from the N-terminal regions of the alpha- and beta-chains only; the C-terminal regions are unaffected. Sequence analysis of the released peptides demonstrates that the N terminals of the alpha- and beta-chains are ragged. In 65% of alpha-chains, the terminus is pyrrolidone carboxylic acid; in the remainder this residue is absent and the chains commence at residue 2, i.e. lysine. In the beta-subunit a minority of chains (16%) have N-terminal glutamine, or its deamidation product, glutamic acid (6%), or the cyclized derivative, pyrrolidone carboxylic acid (5%). A further 28% commence at residue 2, alanine, and 45% at residue 3, serine. The delta-chains also are heterogeneous; in 50% of chains the N-terminal alanine residue is absent. The sequences of the alpha- and beta-chains show that they are weakly homologous, as they are in bacterial F1-ATPases. The sequence of the bovine delta-subunit of F1-ATPase shows that it is the counterpart of the bacterial epsilon-subunit. The bovine epsilon-subunit is not related to any known bacterial or chloroplast H+-ATPase subunit, nor to any other known sequence. The counterpart of the bacterial delta-subunit is bovine oligomycin sensitivity conferral protein, which helps to bind F1 to the inner mitochondrial membrane.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Three F0 subunits and the F1 subunit beta of the ATP synthase from Neurospora crassa were labeled with the lipophilic photoactivatable reagent 3-(trifluoromethyl)-3-(m-[125I]iodophenyl)diazirine ([125I]TID). In the proteolipid subunit which was the most heavily labeled polypeptide labeling was confined to five residues at the NH2-terminus and five residues at the C-terminus of the protein. Labeling occurred at similar positions compared with the homologous protein (subunit c) in the ATP synthase from Escherichia coli, indicating a similar structure of the proteolipid subunits in their respective organisms. The inhibitors oligomycin and dicyclohexylcarbodiimide did not change the pattern of accessible surface residues in the proteolipid, suggesting that neither inhibitor induces gross conformational changes. However, in the presence of oligomycin, the extent of labeling in some residues was reduced. Apparently, these residues provide part of the binding site for the inhibitor. After reaction with dicyclohexylcarbodiimide an additional labeled amino acid was found at position 65 corresponding to the invariant carbodiimide-binding glutamic acid. These results and previous observations indicate that the carboxyl side chain of Glu-65 is located at the protein-lipid interphase. The idea is discussed that proton translocation occurs at the interphase between different types if F0 subunits. Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide or oligomycin might disturb this essential interaction between the F0 subunits.

Two classes of ADP binding sites at 20 degrees C have been characterized in the F1-ATPase from the thermophilic bacterium, PS3 (TF1). One class is comprised of three sites which saturate with [3H]ADP in less than 10 s with a Kd of 10 microM which, once filled, exchange rapidly with medium ADP. The binding of ADP to these sites is dependent on Mg2+. [3H]ADP bound to these sites is removed by repeated gel filtrations on centrifuge columns equilibrated with ADP free medium. The other class is comprised of a single site which saturates with [3H]ADP in 30 min with a Kd of 30 microM. [3H]ADP bound to this site does not exchange with medium ADP nor does it dissociate on gel filtration through centrifuge columns equilibrated with ADP free medium. Binding of [3H]ADP to this site is weaker in the presence of Mg2+ where the Kd for ADP is about 100 microM. [3H]ADP dissociated from this site when ATP plus Mg2+ was added to the complex while it remained bound in the presence of ATP alone or in the presence of ADP, Pi, or ADP plus Pi with or without added Mg2+. Significant amounts of ADP in the 1:1 TF1.ADP complex were converted to ATP in the presence of Pi, Mg2+, and 50% dimethyl sulfoxide. Enzyme-bound ATP synthesis was abolished by chemical modification of a specific glutamic acid residue by dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, but not by modification of a specific tyrosine residue with 7-chloro-4-nitrobenzofurazan. Difference circular dichroism spectra revealed that the three Mg2+ -dependent, high affinity ADP binding sites that were not stable to gel filtration were on the alpha subunits and that the single ADP binding site that was stable to gel filtration was on one of the three beta subunits. It has also been demonstrated that enzyme-bound ATP is formed when the TF0.F1 complex containing bound ADP was incubated with Pi, Mg2+, and 50% dimethyl sulfoxide.

The N-terminal region of the bovine mitochondrial F1-ATPase inhibitor protein is frayed. In three independently isolated samples about 62% of chains start at glycine-1. A further 22% of chains start at residue 2, serine, and the remainder at residue 3, glutamic acid. No evidence can be found for alpha-N-formylglycine reported previously. The fraying may be a consequence of proteolytic processing of the precursor of the inhibitor protein during entry into the mitochondrion.

Oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis was used to generate mutations in the a subunit gene (uncB) altering the glutamic acid 219 and the histidine 245 codons. Substitutions of aspartic acid, glutamine, histidine, and leucine for glutamic acid at position 219 neither alter the hydrolytic activity of membrane-bound F1 nor the association of F1 with F0. However, the efficiency of F0-mediated proton translocation was reduced to varying degrees. Replacement of glutamic acid 219 with leucine reduced the ATP-driven proton pumping activity of intact F1F0 to undetectable levels. Roughly 5% of normal activity was observed when glutamine occupied position 219. Surprisingly higher activity, approaching 20% of wild type levels, is seen when histidine replaced glutamic acid 219. The aspartic acid substitution resulted in little loss of enzyme function. Substitution of glutamic acid for histidine 245 results in a reduction to about 45% of normal proton translocation. Construction of the double mutant with substitution of histidine at position 219 and glutamic acid at position 245 yields a complex with better proton translocation than with either mutant separately. The possibility that a functionally important interaction between histidine 245 and glutamic acid 219 of the a subunit may be directly involved in the proton translocation mechanism of F1F0-ATP synthase is discussed.
