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.

Rat liver peroxisomes contain in their matrix the alpha-subunit of the mitochondrial F1-ATPase complex. The identification of this protein in liver peroxisomes has been achieved by immunoelectron microscopy and subcellular fractionation. No beta-subunit of the mitochondrial F1-ATPase complex was detected in the peroxisomal fractions obtained in sucrose gradients or in Nycodenz pelletted peroxisomes. The consensus peroxisomal targeting sequence (Ala-Lys-Leu) is found at the carboxy terminus of the mature alpha-subunit from bovine heart and rat liver mitochondria. Due to the dual subcellular localization of the alpha-subunit and to the structural homologies that exist between this protein and molecular chaperones [(1990) Biol. Chem. 265, 7713-7716] it is suggested that the protein should perform another functional role(s) in both organelles, plus to its characteristic involvement in the regulation of mitochondrial ATPase activity.

Antibodies were raised against the beef heart mitochondrial ATPase inhibitor. This antiserum prevented the ability of the ATPase inhibitor to inhibit the F1 ATPase activity. Peptide fragments obtained by enzymatic cleavage of the inhibitor protein were tested by immunoblotting or ELISA for their response to the anti-inhibitor antiserum. An antigenic determinant was located in the sequence spanning His 48 to Lys 58 of the inhibitor molecule.

Two point mutants of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, previously found by recombination and complementation analysis to map in the chloroplast atpB gene encoding the beta subunit of the CF1/CF0 ATP synthase, are here shown to be missense alterations near the 5' end of that gene. One mutant (ac-u-c-2-9) has a change at amino acid position 47 of the beta subunit from leucine (CTA) to arginine (CGA). In the second mutant (ac-u-c-2-29), the codon AAA (lysine) is changed to AAC (asparagine) at position 154. Spontaneous revertants of each mutant were isolated that restore the original wild type base pair. Northern analysis of total RNA and in vivo pulse labeling followed by immunoprecipitation reveals that both mutant atpB genes are transcribed and translated normally. However, immunoblots show that the amount of beta subunit associated with mutant thylakoids is only approximately 3% of that seen in wild type and that the CF1 alpha and gamma subunits are missing entirely. The disruption of ATP synthase complex assembly in these mutants is much more severe than in Escherichia coli beta subunit gene point mutants, which retain significant amounts of alpha and beta subunits on their membranes (Noumi, T., Oka, N., Kanazawa, H., and Futai, M. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 7070-7075). These results support the hypothesis that there are differences in assembly of the ATP synthase between E. coli and chloroplasts. In particular they indicate that beta must be present for assembly of the alpha and gamma subunits of CF1 onto chloroplast membranes.

[32P]Azidonitrophenyl phosphate [( 32P]ANPP) is a photoactivatable analogue of Pi. It competes efficiently with Pi for binding to the F1 sector of beef heart mitochondrial ATPase and photolabels the Pi binding site located in the beta subunit of F1 [Lauquin, G. J. M., Pougeois, R., & Vignais, P. V. (1980) Biochemistry 19, 4620-4626]. By cleavage of the photolabeled beta subunit of F1 with cyanogen bromide, trypsin, and chymotrypsin, bound [32P]ANPP was localized in a fragment spanning Thr 299-Phe 326. By Edman degradation of the radiolabeled tryptic peptide spanning Ile 296-Arg 337, [32P]ANPP was found to be attached covalently by its photoreactive group to Ile 304, Gln 308, and Tyr 311. These results are discussed in terms of a model in which the phosphate group of [32P]ANPP interacts with a glycine-rich sequence of the beta subunit, spanning Gly 156-Lys 162, which is spatially close to the photolabeled Ile 304-Tyr 311 segment of the same subunit.

Incubation of spinach chloroplast thylakoids with pyridoxal 5'-phosphate modified the epsilon subunit of ATP synthase (CF0CF1). Illumination of thylakoids stimulated the modification of one specific amino acid residue of the epsilon subunit by a factor of 3. Endoproteinase Glu-C treatment of the isolated epsilon subunit and fractionation of the peptides by high performance liquid chromatography revealed a major fluorescent peptide with the sequence GKRQKIE. Further treatment of this peptide with endoproteinase Arg-C gave a strongly fluorescent tripeptide (GXR). From the primary structure of the epsilon subunit, the specifically modified residue was deduced to be Lys-109. This suggests the energy-dependent conformational changes in the epsilon subunit which change the surroundings of Lys-109 and alter the reactivity of this residue.

The affinity reagents 3'-O-(5-fluoro-2,4-dinitrophenyl) [alpha-32P]ATP (FDNP-[alpha-32P]ATP) and 3'-O-(5-fluoro-2,4-dinitrophenyl) [8-14C]ATP (FDNP-[14C]ATP) were synthesized and used to characterize the structure and function of the three active sites in F1-ATPase. FDNP-[alpha-32P]ATP was found to bind covalently to F1 up to two DNP-[alpha-32P]ATP labels per F1 in the absence of Mg2+ without decreasing the ATPase activity. However, when MgCl2 was subsequently added to the reaction mixture, the enzyme could be further labeled with concomitant decrease in ATPase activity that is consistent with the complete inactivation of one enzyme molecule by an affinity label at the third ATP-binding site. Partial hydrolysis of the FDNP-[14C]ATP-labeled enzyme and sequencing of the isolated peptide indicated that the affinity label was attached to Lys-beta 301 at all three active sites. Samples of F1 with covalent affinity label on Lys-beta 301 were also used to reconstitute F1-deficient submitochondrial particles. The reconstituted particles were assayed for ATPase and oxidative phosphorylation activities. These results show that the catalytic hydrolysis of ATP either by F1 in solution or by F0F1 complex attached to inner mitochondrial membrane takes place essentially at only one active site, but is promoted by the binding of ATP at the other two active sites, and that ATP synthesis during oxidative phosphorylation takes place at all three active sites [corrected].

A tetrapetide containing an essential lysine residue chemically modified with the nitrobenzofurazan group has been purified from bovine heart mitochondrial ATPase. The composition of the peptide indicates that this lysine is residue 401 in the sequence of a beta chain. The modification was achieved by incubation at pH 9 of ATPase that had been previously labelled on a single essential tyrosine residue by reaction of the enzyme with 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzofurazan. The specific transfer of the nitrobenzofurazan group from the tyrosine residue to a particular lysine residue is consistent with the previously demonstrated intramolecular character of this transfer reaction.

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)

The MgATP binding site of adenylate kinase, located by a combination of NMR and x-ray diffraction, is near three protein segments, five to seven amino acids in length, that are homologous in sequence to segments found in other nucleotide-binding phosphotransferases, such as myosin and F1-ATPase, ras p21 and transducin GTPases, and cAMP-dependent and src protein kinases, suggesting equivalent mechanistic roles of these segments in all of these proteins. Segment 1 is a glycine-rich flexible loop that, on adenylate kinase, may control access to the ATP-binding site by changing its conformation. Segment 2 is an alpha-helix containing two hydrophobic residues that interact with the adenine-ribose moiety of ATP, and a lysine that may bind to the beta- and gamma-phosphates of ATP. Segment 3 is a hydrophobic strand of parallel beta-pleated sheet, terminated by a carboxylate, that flanks the triphosphate binding site. The various reported mutations of ras p21 that convert it to a transforming agent all appear to involve segment 1, and such substitutions may alter the properties of p21 by hindering a conformational change at this segment. In F1-ATPase, the flexible loop may, by its position, control both the accessibility and the ATP/ADP equilibrium constant on the enzyme.
