The characteristics and specificity of inactivation of the chloroplast F1-ATPase (CF1) with 7-chloro-4-nitrobenzofurazan (Nbf-Cl) have been investigated. Inactivation of the octylglucoside-dependent Mg2+-ATPase activity of latent CF1 by Nbf-Cl can be correlated with the formation of about 1.2 mol of Nbf-O-Tyr per mole of enzyme. Following inactivation of CF1 with [14C]Nbf-Cl, polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate revealed that the majority of the radioactive reagent incorporated is present in the beta subunit. Treatment of the enzyme with [14C]Nbf-Cl following dithiothreitol heat activation, led to similar labeling of the beta subunit and substantial incorporation of 14C into the gamma subunit. On complete inactivation, about 4 mol of Nbf-S-Cys is formed per mole of dithiothreitol-heat-activated CF1. Incorporation of 14C into the gamma subunit is prevented by prior treatment of the latent CF1 or of the dithiothreitol-heat-activated CF1 with iodoacetamide. Following incubation of the dithiothreitol-heat-activated CF1 with iodoacetamide, complete inactivation of the octylglucoside-dependent Mg2+-ATPase activity by Nbf-Cl can be correlated with the formation of about 1.2 mol of Nbf-O-Tyr per mole of enzyme. After stabilization of the [14C]Nbf-O-Tyr derivative by treatment with sodium dithionite, a labeled peptide was purified. Automatic Edman degradation of this peptide revealed the sequence V-X-V-P-A-D-(D). The majority of the radioactivity was cleaved in the second cycle, the position occupied in CF1 by Tyr-beta-328, which is homologous to Tyr-beta-311, the residue reactive with Nbf-Cl in the beef heart mitochondrial F1-ATPase. When CF1, modified at Tyr-beta-328 with Nbf-Cl, is incubated at pH 9.0, the Nbf-O-Tyr adduct is hydrolyzed, leading to concomitant recovery of the ATPase activity. In double labeling experiments, two-dimensional isoelectric focusing in the presence of urea followed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate indicates that 2-azido-ADP, covalently bound at the tight ADP binding site, and the tyrosine modified by [14C]Nbf-Cl are located in different beta subunits.

A procedure for the preparation of coupling factor 1 (F1) from Escherichia coli lacking subunits delta and epsilon is described. Using chloroform and dimethyl sulfoxide, we can isolate F1 containing only subunits alpha, beta, and gamma [F1(alpha beta gamma)] directly from membrane vesicles in 10-mg quantities. Pure and active subunits delta and epsilon were prepared from five-subunit F1 by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. After addition of these subunits, F1(alpha beta gamma) is as active in reconstituting ATP-dependent transhydrogenase as five-subunit F1. The ATPase activity of F1 (alpha beta gamma) is inhibited by subunit epsilon in a 1:1 stoichiometry to the same extent (approximately equal to 90%) and with the same affinity (Ki = 0.2-0.8 nM) as reported earlier [Dunn, S.D. (1982) J. Biol. Chem. 257, 7354-7359]. In the presence of either delta or epsilon, F1(alpha beta gamma) binds to F1-depleted membrane vesicles and to liposomes containing the membrane sector (F0) of the ATP synthase to an extent commensurate with the F0 content. The binding ratios epsilon/F1 (alpha beta gamma) and probably also delta/F1 (alpha beta gamma) are close to unity. The specific, delta- or epsilon-deficient F1.F0 complexes presumably formed show ATPase activities sensitive to subunit epsilon but not to dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, and no energy-transfer capabilities. Binding studies at different pH values suggest that F1-F0 interactions in the presence of both subunits delta and epsilon are similar to a combination of those mediated by delta or epsilon alone.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The mycotoxin, cyclopiazonic acid (CPA), inhibits the Ca2+-stimulated ATPase (EC 3.6.1.38) and Ca2+ transport activity of sarcoplasmic reticulum (Goeger, D. E., Riley, R. T., Dorner, J. W., and Cole, R. J. (1988) Biochem. Pharmacol. 37, 978-981). We found that at low ATP concentrations (0.5-2 microM) the inhibition of ATPase activity was essentially complete at a CPA concentration of 6-8 nmol/mg protein, indicating stoichiometric reaction of CPA with the Ca2+-ATPase. Cyclopiazonic acid caused similar inhibition of the Ca2+-stimulated ATP hydrolysis in intact sarcoplasmic reticulum and in a purified preparation of Ca2+-ATPase. Cyclopiazonic acid also inhibited the Ca2+-dependent acetylphosphate, p-nitrophenylphosphate and carbamylphosphate hydrolysis by sarcoplasmic reticulum. ATP protected the enzyme in a competitive manner against inhibition by CPA, while a 10(5)-fold change in free Ca2+ concentration had only moderate effect on the extent of inhibition. CPA did not influence the crystallization of Ca2+-ATPase by vanadate or the reaction of fluorescein-5'-isothiocyanate with the Ca2+-ATPase, but it completely blocked at concentrations as low as 1-2 mol of CPA/mol of ATPase the fluorescence changes induced by Ca2+ and [ethylenebis(oxyethylenenitrilo)]tetraacetic acid (EGTA) in FITC-labeled sarcoplasmic reticulum and inhibited the cleavage of Ca2+-ATPase by trypsin at the T2 cleavage site in the presence of EGTA. These observations suggest that CPA interferes with the ATP-induced conformational changes related to Ca2+ transport. The effect of CPA on the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase appears to be fairly specific, since the kidney and brain Na+,K+-ATPase (EC 3.6.1.37), the gastric H+,K+-ATPase (EC 3.6.1.36), the mitochondrial F1-ATPase (EC 3.6.1.34), the Ca2+-ATPase of erythrocytes, and the Mg2+-activated ATPase of T-tubules and surface membranes of rat skeletal muscle were not inhibited by CPA, even at concentrations as high as 1000 nmol/mg protein.

The F0 portion of the rat liver mitochondrial ATP synthase (F0F1-ATPase) has been purified by a rapid, high yield procedure. F0 is selectively extracted from inner membrane vesicles with 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonate (CHAPS) after prior treatment of the vesicles with guanidine HCl to remove F1. The resultant F0 is functional in proton translocation assays and separates in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis into four major and three minor Coomassie-stainable bands, all with apparent molecular masses below 30 kDa. This CHAPS-purified F0 preparation was characterized in detail for its capacity to interact with the unique probe diethylstilbestrol (DES) which, depending on conditions, has been shown to interact with rat liver F0F1 to either inhibit or promote ATP hydrolysis (McEnery, M. W., and Pedersen, P.L. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 1745-1752). DES-inhibitory sensitivity could be conferred on F1-ATPase activity with the same concentration dependence on F0 as conferral of oligomycin sensitivity. DES was shown also to inhibit the magnitude of valinomycin induced proton influx, while initiating proton efflux in asolectin vesicles reconstituted with F0 and loaded with K+. The potency of DES in producing the latter effects was shown to be highly dependent on hydroxyl groups in "para" positions of the two benzene rings within the DES molecule. Finally, in the absence of F0, DES was shown to act as a catalyst of proton influx in K+-loaded asolectin vesicles upon addition of valinomycin. A model based on the structure of DES is presented to account for both the inhibitory and uncoupling properties of this compound.

We investigated the interaction of triethyllead with ATP-coupled cellular enzymatic activities and the role of GSH to reverse the observed inhibition of these enzymes. Triethyllead inhibited the membrane bound Na+-K+-ATPase from HeLa cells (IC50 12 microM) and the ATP-hydrolysing activity of the mitochondrial F0-F1-ATPase complex (IC50 17 microM). Addition of 1 mM GSH reversed both enzyme activities totally, whereas lower GSH concentrations showed a less pronounced effect. Surprisingly, in freshly isolated rat liver mitochondria the ATP-synthesizing activity was also inhibited by triethyllead (IC50 16 microM), in spite of a measured high intramitochondrial GSH concentration (up to 10 mM). Further experiments in isolated submitochondrial particles revealed that ATP-synthesis and ATP-hydrolysis were inhibited by triethyllead with similar IC50 values, and both activities could be protected in vitro from the organolead compound in the presence of 1 mM GSH. Thus in all activities tested in vitro a high excess of GSH over triethyllead (greater than or equal to 25-fold) is necessary to restore the inhibited enzymes. The intramitochondrial triethyllead concentration was further determined after incubation of intact mitochondria with 10 microM of the organolead compound. The organolead concentration measured was as high as 600 microM. This means that in intact mitochondria there exists only a ca. 16-fold excess of GSH, which has been shown to be insufficient to protect ATP-synthesizing and ATP-hydrolyzing activities of the F0-F1-ATPase from triethyllead in vitro. We concluded that in intact mitochondria the F0-F1-ATPase complex is inhibited by triethyllead due to its accumulation in the matrix.

Hypocrellin A (HA), a perylene quinone derivative, is a new photosensitizer extracted from Hypocrella bambusae (B et Br) Sace. A high voltage sodium lamp was used as the light source; the illumination intensity was 105 mW/cm2. After HA 25 micrograms/ml and illumination for 10 min, mitochondrial ATPase and microsomal G-6-Pase of hepatoma cells were intensively inhibited, but mitochondrial MAO was not affected. Sulfhydryl contents of the mitochondrial and microsomal membrane proteins were significantly reduced. Lipid peroxidation of mitochondrial and microsomal membrane lipids were greatly enhanced. It is concluded that mitochondria and microsomes are the sensitive targets in cells with respect to HA photosensitization.

The Ca2+- or Mg2+-activated ATPase from rat liver plasma membrane was partly purified by treatments with sodium cholate and lysophosphatidylcholine, and by isopycnic centrifugation on sucrose gradients. The ATPase activity had high sensitivity to detergents, poor nucleotide specificity and broad tolerance for divalent cations. It was insensitive to mitochondrial ATPase inhibitors such as oligomycin and to transport ATPase inhibitors such as vanadate and ouabain. Using the cholate dialysis procedure, the partly purified enzyme was incorporated into asolectin vesicles. Upon addition of Mg2+-ATP, fluorescence quenching of 9-amino-6-chloro-2-methoxyacridine (ACMA) was observed. The quenching was abolished by a protonophore, carbonyl cyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone (FCCP). Asolectin vesicles or purified ATPase alone failed to promote quenching. These data suggest that the Ca2+- or Mg2+-activated ATPase from rat liver plasma membrane is able of H+-translocation coupled to ATP hydrolysis.

This study was designed to determine: (1) the myocardial adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activities of normal humans and patients with dilated cardiomyopathy and (2) whether ATPase activity is related to age, cause and severity of heart failure, and digitalis therapy. Endomyocardial biopsies were performed in 32 subjects. Results from six were normal. Ventricular failure in the other 26 was idiopathic (n = 15), familial (n = 3), alcohol induced (n = 5), or related to doxorubicin therapy (n = 3). The biopsies were analyzed for total, mitochondrial, Na+-K+, Ca++, and Mg++ ATPase activities. Total and mitochondrial ATPase activities correlated with left ventricular ejection fraction (r = 0.65 and 0.67, respectively; both p = 0.0001). Residual Mg++ ATPase activity correlated weakly with ventricular function as measured by echocardiography (p = 0.05). Na+-K+ ATPase activity was depressed in patients receiving digitalis (p = 0.01). These results suggest that progressive ventricular dysfunction may be associated with a progressive loss of total ATPase, mitochondrial ATPase and, to a lesser extent, Mg++ ATPase activity. Although depressed mitochondrial ATPase activity is not likely to be the primary cause of ventricular dysfunction, it could perpetuate failure by leading to inadequate production of adenosine triphosphate. Further study of ATPase activities may provide additional insight into the pathogenesis of cardiac failure.

The only known cellular action of AlF4- is to stimulate the G-proteins. The aim of the present work is to demonstrate that AlF4- also inhibits 'P'-type cation-transport ATPases. NaF plus AlCl3 completely and reversibly inhibits the activity of the purified (Na+ + K+)-ATPase (Na+- and K+-activated ATPase) and of the purified plasmalemmal (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase (Ca2+-stimulated and Mg2+-dependent ATPase). It partially inhibits the activity of the sarcoplasmic-reticulum (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase, whereas it does not affect the mitochondrial H+-transporting ATPase. The inhibitory substances are neither F- nor Al3+ but rather fluoroaluminate complexes. Because AlF4- still inhibits the ATPase in the presence of guanosine 5'-[beta-thio]diphosphate, and because guanosine 5'-[beta gamma-imido]triphosphate does not inhibit the ATPase, it is unlikely that the inhibition could be due to the activation of an unknown G-protein. The time course of inhibition and the concentrations of NaF and AlCl3 required for this inhibition differ for the different ATPases. AlF4- inhibits the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase and the plasmalemmal (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase noncompetitively with respect to ATP and to their respective cationic substrates, Na+ and Ca2+. AlF4- probably binds to the phosphate-binding site of the ATPase, as the Ki for inhibition of the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase and of the plasmalemmal (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase is shifted in the presence of respectively 5 and 50 mM-Pi to higher concentrations of NaF. Moreover, AlF4- inhibits the K+-activated p-nitrophenylphosphatase of the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase competitively with respect to p-nitrophenyl phosphate. This AlF4- -induced inhibition of 'P'-type cation-transport ATPases warns us against explaining all the effects of AlF4- on intact cells by an activation of G-proteins.

H+-translocating, Mg2+-ATPase was solubilized from vacuolar membranes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae with the zwitterionic detergent N-tetradecyl-N,N-dimethyl-3-ammonio-1-propanesulfonate and purified by glycerol density gradient centrifugation. Partially purified vacuolar membrane H+-ATPase, which had a specific activity of 18 units/mg of protein, was separated almost completely from acid phosphatase and alkaline phosphatase. The purified enzyme required phospholipids for maximal activity and hydrolyzed ATP, GTP, UTP, and CTP, with this order of preference. Its Km value for Mg2+-ATP was determined to be 0.21 mM and its optimal pH was 6.9. ADP inhibited the enzyme activity competitively, with a Ki value of 0.31 mM. The activity of purified ATPase was strongly inhibited by N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide, tributyltin, 7-chloro-4-nitrobenzoxazole, diethylstilbestrol, and quercetin, but was not affected by oligomycin, sodium azide, sodium vanadate, or miconazole. It was not inhibited at all by antiserum against mitochondrial F1-ATPase or mitochondrial F1-ATPase inhibitor protein. These results indicated that vacuolar membrane H+-ATPase is different from either yeast plasma membrane H+-ATPase or mitochondrial F1-ATPase. The vacuolar membrane H+-ATPase was found to be composed of two major polypeptides a and b of Mr = 89,000 and 64,000, respectively, and a N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide binding polypeptide c of Mr = 19,500, whose polypeptide composition was also different from those of either plasma membrane H+-ATPase or mitochondrial F1-ATPase of S. cerevisiae.
