The natural mitochondrial ATPase inhibitor (IF1) was modified with a radioactivity labeled heterobifunctional and photosensitive reagent, methyl 4-azido(14C)benzimidate ((14C)MABI). Titration experiments of IF1 by (14C)MABI and tryptic maps of (14C)MABI-IF1 indicated that specific lysine residues in IF1 are preferentially labeled by (14C)MABI. Under appropriate conditions of labeling (1 to 2 lysine residues modified per IF1), MABI-IF1 exhibited the same inhibitory potency as native IF1 on the hydrolytic activity of the coupling factor 1 of mitochondrial ATPase (F1). The same conditions were required for inhibition of F1 by MABI-IF1 and IF1 (slightly acidic pH and presence of ATP and MgCl2). In photolabeling experiments, (14C)MABI-IF1 was used to investigate the localization of IF1 binding sites on F1. Upon photoirradiation, MABI-IF1 bound selectively to the beta subunit of soluble or membrane-bound F1. Adenylyl imidodiphosphate and quercetin, two compounds which partially mimic the inhibitory effect of IF1 on ATPase activity of F1, markedly prevented the binding of (14C)MABI-IF1 to F1; on the other hand, aurovertin, a specific ligand of the beta subunit of F1, did not affect the interaction between (14C)MABI-IF1 and F1. In the absence of light, (14C)MABI-IF1 was used as a reversible radiolabeled ligand with respect to membrane bound F1 to investigate F1-IF1 interactions to inside-out submitochondrial particles as a function of the energy state of the particles. Oxidation of NADH by submitochondrial particles resulted in a decrease of bound (14C)MABI-IF1; the effect was counteracted by antimycin. The data suggested that added (14C)MABI-IF1 is capable of exchanging with IF1 bound to F1 in submitochondrial particles and that the rate and extent of (14C)MABI-IF1 release are triggered by the proton-motive force developed by the particles.

(1) Incubation of the beef heart mitochondrial ATPase, F1 with Mg-ATP was required for the binding of the natural inhibitor, IF1, to F1 to form the inactive F1-IF1 complex. When F1 was incubated in the presence of [14C]ATP and MgCl2, about 2 mol 14C-labeled adenine nucleotides were found to bind per mol of F1; the bound 14C-labeled nucleotides consisted of [14C]ADP arising from [14C]ATP hydrolysis and [14C]ATP. The 14C- labeled nucleotide binding was not prevented by IF1. These data are in agreement with the idea that the formation of the F1-IF1 complex requires an appropriate conformation of F1. (2) The 14C-labeled adenine nucleotides bound to F1 following preincubation of F1 with Mg-[14C] ATP could be exchanged with added [3H]ADP or [3H]ATP. No exchange occurred between added [3H]ADP or [3H]ATP and the 14 C-labeled adenine nucleotides bound to the F1-IF1 complex. These data suggest that the conformation of F1 in the isolated F1-IF1 complex is further modified in such a way that the bound 14C-labeled nucleotides are no longer available for exchange. (3) 32Pi was able to bind to isolated F1 with a stoichiometry of about 1 mol of Pi per mol of F1 (Penefsky, H.S. (1977) J. Biol. Chem. 252, 2891-2899). There was no binding of 32Pi to the F1-IF1 complex. Thus, not only the nucleotides sites, but also the Pi site, are masked from interaction with external ligands in the isolated F1-IF1 complex.

The mitochondrial functional defects occurring in the early stages of nephrotoxic renal injury secondary to mercuric chloride have been characterized. No loss of cellular integrity or major mitochondrial structural alterations occurred within the first 3 h after a subcutaneous injection of 5 mg/kg of HgCl2. At 3 h, levels of Hg2+ in renal cortex and isolated renal cortical mitochondria were 1.87 and 0.72 nmol/mg of protein, respectively. Much evidence suggested that this Hg2+ had reached the mitochondria in situ and not during the isolation process. Mitochondria isolated beginning 1 h after treatment with HgCl2 showed depressed ADP uptake. At 2 h, inhibitions of State 3 and 2,4-dinitrophenol uncoupled respiration were detected. Inhibition of 2,4-dinitrophenol-activated mitochondrial ATPase activity was present when measured on mitochondria isolated at 3 h. These effects were not reversed by 2 mM dithioerythritol, 50 mg/ml of albumin or 5 mM MgCl2. Analysis of the data in the context of information available on the in vitro effects of HgCl2 (Weinberg, J. M., Harding, P. G., and Humes, H. D. (1982) J. Biol. Chem. 257, 60-67) indicated that the mitochondrial functional effects could not be attributed to interaction of the mitochondria with Hg2+ during their isolation. These studies implicate compromised mitochondrial bioenergetic function as one of the earliest intracellular effects of Hg2+ in the production of nephrotoxicity but suggest that the intracellular process involves events in addition to those seen with direct exposure of mitochondria to Hg2+ in vitro.

Glu-beta 185 of the Escherichia coli H(+)-ATPase (ATP synthase) beta subunit was replaced by 19 different amino acid residues. The rates of multisite (steady state) catalysis of all the mutant membrane ATPases except Asp- beta 185 were less than 0.2% of the wild type one; the Asp- beta 185 enzyme exhibited 15% (purified) and 16% (membrane-bound) ATPase activity. The purified inactive Cys- beta 185 F1-ATPase recovered substantial activity after treatment with iodoacetate in the presence of MgCl2; maximal activity was obtained upon the introduction of about 3 mol of carboxymethyl residues/mol of F1. The divalent cation dependences of the S-carboxymethyl- beta 185 and Asp- beta 185 ATPase activities were altered from that of the wild type. The Asp- beta 185, Cys- beta 185, S-carboxymethyl-beta 185, and Gln- beta 185 enzymes showed about 130, 60, 20, and 50% of the wild type unisite catalysis rates, respectively. The S-carboxymethyl- beta 185 and Asp- beta 185 enzymes showed altered divalent cation sensitivities, and the S-carboxymethyl- beta 185 enzyme showed no Mg2+ inhibition. Unlike the wild type, the two mutant enzymes showed low sensitivities to azide, which stabilizes the enzyme Mg-ADP complex. These results suggest that Glu- beta 185 may form a Mg2+ binding site, and its carboxyl moiety is essential for catalytic cooperativity. Consistent with this model, the bovine glutamate residue corresponding to Glu- beta 185 is located close to the catalytic site in the higher order structure (Abrahams, J.P., Leslie, A.G.W., Lutter, R ., and Walker, J.E. (1994) Nature 370, 621-628)

A triple mutant of Escherichia coli F1F0-ATP synthase, alphaQ2C/alphaS411C/epsilonS108C, has been generated for studying movements of the gamma and epsilon subunits during functioning of the enzyme. It includes mutations that allow disulfide bond formation between the Cys at alpha411 and both Cys-87 of gamma and Cys-108 of epsilon, two covalent cross-links that block enzyme function (Aggeler, R., and Capaldi, R. A. (1996) J. Biol. Chem. 271, 13888-13891). A cross-link is also generated between the Cys at alpha2 and Cys-140 of the delta subunit, which has no effect on functioning (Ogilvie, I., Aggeler, R., and Capaldi, R. A. (1997) J. Biol. Chem. 272, 16652-16656). CuCl2 treatment of the mutant alphaQ2C/alphaS411C/epsilonS108C generated five major cross-linked products. These are alpha-gamma-delta, alpha-gamma, alpha-delta-epsilon, alpha-delta, and alpha-epsilon. The ratio of alpha-gamma-delta to the alpha-gamma product was close to 1:2, i.e. in one-third of the ECF1F0 molecules the gamma subunit was attached to the alpha subunit at which the delta subunit is bound. Also, 20% of the epsilon subunit was present as a alpha-delta-epsilon product. With regard to the delta subunit, 30% was in the alpha-gamma-delta, 20% in the alpha-delta-epsilon, and 50% in the alpha-delta products when the cross-linking was done after incubation in ATP + MgCl2. The amounts of these three products were 40, 22, and 38%, respectively, in experiments where Cu2+ was added after preincubation in ATP + Mg2+ + azide. The delta subunit is fixed to, and therefore identifies, one specific alpha subunit (alphadelta). A distribution of the gamma and epsilon subunits, which is essentially random with respect to the alpha subunits, can only be explained by rotation of gamma-epsilon relative to the alpha3beta3 domain in ECF1F0.

We introduced mutations at the fully conserved residue Glu-195 in subunit beta of Rhodospirillum rubrum F1-ATPase. The activities of the expressed wild type (WT) and mutant beta subunits were assayed by following their capacity to assemble into the earlier prepared beta-depleted, membrane-bound R. rubrum enzyme (Philosoph, S., Binder, A., and Gromet-Elhanan, Z. (1977) J. Biol. Chem. 252, 8742-8747) and to restore ATP synthesis and/or hydrolysis activity. All three mutations, beta-E195K, beta-E195Q, and beta-E195G, were found to bind as the WTbeta into the beta-depleted enzyme. They restored between 30 and 60% of the WT restored photophosphorylation activity and 16, 45, and 105%, respectively of the CaATPase activity. The mutants required, however, much higher concentrations of divalent cations and could not restore any significant MgATPase or MnATPase activities. Only beta-E195G could restore some of these activities when assayed in the presence of 100 mM sulfite and high MgCl2 or MnCl2 concentrations. These results suggest that the observed difference in restoration of ATP synthesis and CaATPase, as compared with MgATPase and MnATPase, can be due to the tight regulation of the last two activities, resulting in their inhibition at cation/ATP ratios above 0.5. The R. rubrum F1beta-E195 is equivalent to the mitochondrial F1beta-E199, which points into the tunnel leading to the F1 catalytic nucleotide binding sites (Abrahams, J. P., Leslie, A. G. W., Lutter, R., and Walker, J. E. (1994) Nature 370, 621-628). Our findings indicate that this residue, although not an integral part of the F1 catalytic sites, affects divalent cation binding and release of inhibitory MgADP, suggesting its participation in the interconversion of the F1 catalytic sites between different conformational states.

In this paper we postulate, that mitochondria isolated from the rat myometrium undergo swelling in isoosmotic medium, which contains K+ (125 mM). This swelling was blocked by ATP (200 microM), but only when MgCl2 (1 mM) was present and observed when oligomycin, the inhibitor of FoF1-ATPase, was added to the incubation medium. Diazoxide (50 microM), activator of the mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium channel, removed ATP-induced blockade of swelling. Our results may prompt the presence of K+ transporter on the inner mitochondrial membrane, which possesses the features of the mitochondrial ATP-dependent potassium channel described earlier in mitochondria of the heart, liver, brain, retina, blood vessels and kidneys.
