The F1-ATPase from the uncD11 mutant of E. coli (Kanazawa, H., Horiuchi, Y., Takagi, M., Ishino, Y., & Futai, M. (1980) J. Biochem. 88, 695-703), showed different enzymological properties from the wild-type enzyme. The mutant F1-ATPase had biphasic kinetics and essentially the same Km values as the wild-type enzyme, although its Vmax values were lower. The mutant enzyme showed altered sensitivities to dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD), azide and quercetin; it was less sensitive than the wild-type to quercetin and DCCD, and its Mg2+-dependent ATPase activity was slightly more resistant to azide than that of the wild-type, whereas its Ca2+-dependent activity was more sensitive. On the other hand, the mutant and wild-type F1 were inhibited equally by 4-chloro-7-nitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (NBD-Cl). The fact that the Mg2+- and Ca2+-dependent F1-ATPase activities of the wild-type and mutant responded differently to quercetin and azide suggested that their mechanisms of action were different. Previous studies (Noumi, T., Mosher, M.E., Natori, S., Futai, M., & Kanazawa, H. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 10071-10075) indicated that Ser is replaced by Phe at residue 174 of the beta subunit of the mutant. Thus the Ser residue or its neighboring area(s) may constitute the binding site of DCCD, quercetin and azide.

Six mutant uncD alleles, affecting essential residues of the beta-subunit of Escherichia coli proton-ATPase, have been identified by intragenic complementation mapping, cloning, and DNA sequencing. Five of the mutations impair catalysis but do not cause structural perturbation of F1-ATPase. The amino acid substitutions found were as follows: uncD412, Gly-142----Ser; uncD430 and uncD431, both Arg-246----Cys; uncD478, Ser-174----Phe; and uncD484, Met-209----Ile. Kinetic characteristics of each corresponding mutant F1-ATPase are described or reviewed. In each case, the major determinant of impaired catalysis appears to be an attenuation of positive catalytic site cooperativity. Additionally, each mutation affects intrinsic properties of the catalytic site, including affinity for ATP, the ratio between unisite-bound substrate and products, and the rate of release of product inorganic phosphate under unisite ATP hydrolysis conditions. These effects are discussed in terms of a structural model of the catalytic nucleotide-binding domain of beta-subunit proposed recently (Duncan, T.M., Parsonage, D., and Senior, A.E. (1986) FEBS Lett. 208, 1-6). Each of the mutations lies within that domain. The uncD409 allele abolishes normal assembly of F1-ATPase. The amino acid substitution is Gly-214----Arg, which is suggested to affect a beta-turn connecting a beta-strand and an alpha-helix in the predicted nucleotide-binding domain of the beta-subunit.

Oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis was used to generate six mutant strains of Escherichia coli which had the following specific amino acid substitutions in the beta-subunit of F1-ATPase: (i) Lys-155----Gln; (ii) Lys-155----Glu; (iii) Gly-149----Ile; (iv) Gly-154----Ile; (v) Tyr-297----Phe;(vi) Tyr-354----Phe. The effects of each mutation on growth of cells on succinate plates or limiting (3 mM) glucose and on cell membrane ATPase activity and ATP-driven pH gradient formation were studied. The results showed Lys-155 to be essential for catalysis, as has been predicted previously from sequence homology and structural considerations; however, the results appear to contradict the hypothesis that Lys-155 interacts with one of the substrate phosphate groups because the Lys-155----Glu mutation was less detrimental than Lys-155----Gln. Gly-149 and Gly-154 have been predicted to be involved in essential conformational changes in F1-ATPase by virtue of their position in a putative glycine-rich flexible loop structure. The mutation of Gly-154----Ile caused strong impairment of catalysis, but the Gly-149----Ile mutation produced only moderate impairment. The two tyrosine residues chosen for mutation were residues which have previously received much attention due to their being the sites of reaction of the inactivating chemical modification reagents 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzofurazan (Tyr-297) and p-fluorosulfonylbenzoyl-5'-adenosine (Tyr-354). We found that mutation of Tyr-297----Phe caused only minor impairment of catalysis, and mutation of Tyr-354----Phe produced no impairment. Therefore, a direct role for either of these tyrosine residues in catalysis is unlikely.

A group of mutant uncA alleles, affecting essential residues of the alpha-subunit of Escherichia coli proton-ATPase, have been identified by intragenic complementation mapping, cloning, and DNA sequencing. One of the mutations, uncA450, abolishes normal assembly of F1-ATPase. The amino acid substitution found was Glu-299----Lys, which is predicted to lie in an alpha-helix in alpha-subunit. The reversal of the charge at residue 299 is a likely cause of defective assembly. The uncA462 allele causes impairment of catalysis while allowing normal assembly of membrane-bound F1-ATPase. The amino acid substitution found was Ser-347----Phe. Three mutations which impair catalysis but do not cause structural perturbation of either membrane-bound or solubilized F1ATPase were characterized as follows: uncA401, Ser-373----Phe; uncA447, Gly-351----Asp; uncA453, Ser-375----Phe. We predict here that the nucleotide-binding domain of alpha-subunit is formed by the amino acids in the sequence from residue 160 to approximately residue 340. The mutations which cause impairment of catalysis lie in a short segment between residues 347-375 of alpha-subunit, at the C-terminal end of the predicted nucleotide-binding domain. This segment is suggested to be important for beta-alpha-beta intersubunit conformational interaction involved in positive catalytic cooperativity in F1-ATPase.

This work concerns a biochemical genetic study of subunit 9 of the mitochondrial ATPase complex of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Subunit 9, encoded by the mitochondrial oli1 gene, contains a hydrophilic loop connecting two transmembrane stems. In one particular oli1 mit- mutant 2422, the substitution of a positively charged amino acid in this loop (Arg39----Met) renders the ATPase complex non-functional. A series of 20 revertants, selected for their ability to grow on nonfermentable substrates, has been isolated from mutant 2422. The results of DNA sequence analysis of the oli1 gene in each revertant have led to the recognition of three groups of revertants. Class I revertants have undergone a same-site reversion event: the mutant Met39 is replaced either by arginine (as in wild-type) or lysine. Class II revertants maintain the mutant Met39 residue, but have undergone a second-site reversion event (Asn35----Lys). Two revertants showing an oligomycin-resistant phenotype carry this same second-site reversion in the loop region together with a further amino acid substitution in either of the two membrane-spanning segments of subunit 9 (either Gly23----Ser or Leu53----Phe). Class III revertants contain subunit 9 with the original mutant 2422 sequence, and additionally carry a recessive nuclear suppressor, demonstrated to represent a single gene. The results on the revertants in classes I and II indicate that there is a strict requirement for a positively charged residue in the hydrophilic loop close to the boundary of the lipid bilayer. The precise location of this positive charge is less stringent; in functional ATPase complexes it can be found at either residue 39 or 35. This charged residue is possibly required to interact with some other component of the mitochondrial ATPase complex. These findings, together with hydropathy plots of subunit 9 polypeptides from normal, mutant and revertant strains, led to the conclusion that the hydrophilic loop in normal subunit 9 extends further than previously suggested, with the boundary of the N-terminal membrane-embedded stem lying at residue 34. The possibility is raised that the observed suppression of the 2422 mutant phenotype in class III revertants is manifested through an accommodating change in a nuclear-encoded subunit of the ATPase complex.

The mutant allele (uncA401) of the gene for the alpha subunit of Escherichia coli F1-ATPase was cloned from the total DNA of the mutant AN120 on a hybrid plasmid pAN120. Determination of the DNA sequence of the alpha subunit gene from pAN120 revealed a single base change of cytosine at nucleotide residue 1118 to thymine and indicated that serine 373 was replaced by phenylalanine. It has been reported that the mutant F1 is defective in a step of steady-state catalysis, whereas its single turnover process is normal (Kanazawa, H., Noumi, T., Matsuoka, I., Hirata T., and Futai, M. (1984) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 228, 258-269). Thus, we concluded that serine 373 in the alpha subunit is essential for steady-state catalysis by F1-ATPase.

When the bovine mitochondrial F1-ATPase is inactivated with dicyclohexyl[14C]carbodiimide and then gel-filtered, from 2 to 3 g atoms of 14C are incorporated/mol of enzyme. Prior inactivation of the enzyme by the modification of an essential tyrosine residue with 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzofurazan, a reaction that can be reversed by thiols, does not affect the irreversible inactivation of the ATPase by dicyclohexyl[14C]carbodiimide. During the large scale modification of the F1-ATPase by dicyclohexyl[14C]carbodiimide which led to 70% inactivation, 1.9 g atoms of 14C were incorporated/mol of enzyme. Isolation of the alpha, beta, and gamma subunits from this large scale inactivation revealed that the gram atoms of 14C bound per mol of each of the subunits was: alpha, 0.04; beta, 0.56; and gamma, 0.04. The majority of the radioactivity in a cyanogen bromide digest of the 14C-labeled beta subunit was isolated in a fragment that has the following amino acid sequence: Glu-Leu-Ile-Asn-Asn-Val-Ala-Lys-Ala-His-Gly-Gly-Tyr-Ser-Val-Phe-Ala-Gly-Val-Gly -Glu-Arg-Thr-Arg-Glu-Gly-Asn-Asp-Leu-Tyr-Glu*-His-Met; where Glu* represents the N gamma-glutamyl derivative of dicyclohexyl[14C]urea.

The effect on the function of the Escherichia coli F1F0-ATPase of the substitution of leucine-31 by phenylalanine in the c-subunit of the enzyme was examined. The assembly of the mutant c-subunit requires an increased gene dosage [Jans, Fimmel, Langman, James, Downie, Senior, Ash, Gibson & Cox (1983) Biochem. J. 211, 717-726], and this was achieved by incorporation of the uncE408 or uncE463 alleles on to F-plasmids or multicopy plasmids. Membranes from strains carrying either the uncE463 or uncE408 alleles on F-plasmids or multicopy plasmids were capable of carrying out oxidative phosphorylation. In particular, membranes from strain AN1928 (pAN162, uncE463) gave phosphorylation rates and P/O ratios equal to or greater than those obtained for the control strain AN1460 (pAN45, unc+). However, the mutant membranes, on removal of the F1-ATPase, appeared to be proton-impermeable. The ATPase activity of the mutant membranes was also resistant to the inhibitor dicyclohexylcarbodi-imide.

The alpha, beta and gamma subunits of F1-ATPase from thermophilic Bacillus PS3 were expressed in Escherichia coli cells simultaneously in large amounts. Most of the expressed subunits assembled into a form of alpha 3 beta 3 gamma complex in E. coli cells and this complex was easily purified to homogeneity. The recombinant alpha 3 beta 3 gamma complex thus obtained showed similar enzymatic properties to the alpha 3 beta 3 gamma complex obtained by in vitro reconstitution from individual subunits (Yokoyama, K. et al. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 21837-21841) except that the former had several-fold higher ATPase activity than the latter. Using this expression system, a mutant alpha 3 beta 3 gamma complex with no Trp and Cys was generated by replacing alpha Cys193 and alpha Trp463 with Ser and Phe, respectively. This mutant complex was functionally intact, indicating both residues are not essential for catalysis. The Cys-/Trp-less complex is a convenient 'second wild type' enzyme from which one can generate mutants with Trp (as a fluorescent probe) or Cys (as an acceptor of a variety of probes) at desired positions without concern for 'background' Trp and Cys residues.

Inferred from the crystal structure of mitochondrial F1-ATPase (Abrahams, J.P. et al. (1994) Nature 370, 621-628), the proteinase-sensitive region around Phe-395 of thermophilic F1-ATPase alpha-subunit corresponds to the loop which connects main part of the carboxyl-terminal helical bundle domain with the ATP binding domain. This loop is in contact with the gamma- and adjacent beta-subunits. Two polypeptides corresponding to the sequence 1-395 and 396-503 of the alpha-subunit were expressed in Escherichia coli cells and they were copurified as an apparently functional alpha-subunit (alpha(395/396)) made up of two polypeptides. The isolated alpha(395/396) was stabilized by ATP-Mg, but not by ADP-Mg, although it bound both ATP-Mg and ADP-Mg with similar affinities (Kd, 11 microM and 14 microM, respectively). The alpha(395/396) was reconstitutable into alpha(395/396)3 beta 3 and alpha(395/396)3 beta 3 gamma complexes. Different from the intact the ATP-Mg-induced dissociation into alpha 1 beta 1 heterodimers. ATP hydrolysis by the alpha(395/396)3 beta 3 gamma complex underwent a slow initial phase, whereas the intact alpha 3 beta 3 gamma complex exhibited an accelerated initial phase. Steady-state ATPase activity at various ATP concentrations showed negative cooperativity for the intact alpha 3 beta 3 gamma complex but apparently positive cooperativity for the alpha(395/396)3 beta 3 gamma complex. The ATPase activities at a saturating ATP concentration of the complexes containing the alpha(395/396) were 180% of those containing intact alpha-subunits. These results indicate that a loop around Phe-395 is involved in intersubunit interaction in F1-ATPase.
