Inhibition of ATPase activities by triethyltin (TET), diethyltin (DET), monoethyltin (MET), and trimethyltin (TMT) was studied in homogenates of brain and liver from adult and neonatal rats. In the adult, sensitivities were as follows: mitochondrial ATPase of liver much greater than Na+, K+-ATPase of brain approximately equal to mitochondrial ATPase of brain greater than nonspecific ATPase of brain and liver. MET did not produce significant inhibition. ATPase activities in brain and liver homogenates from TET-treated adult rats did not differ from controls. Mitochondrial ATPase in brain homogenates from 5-day-old rats was two orders of magnitude more sensitive to TET than brain homogenates from adult rats (IC50 of 2.5 microM in the 5-day-old neonate vs 260 microM in the adult). By contrast, isolated mitochondria and synaptosomal fractions from adult and neonatal brains were equally sensitive to TET (IC50 = 1-3 microM). At 10 days of age, following the onset of myelination, the IC50 for TET inhibition of brain mitochondrial ATPase increased to 71 microM. Myelin added directly to isolated mitochondria also reduced TET-induced inhibition. It is concluded that in vivo brain tin concentrations in 5-day-old rats following a neurotoxic dose of TET are sufficient to inhibit brain mitochondrial ATPase, whereas in adults, tin concentrations are insufficient for inhibition. In the adult rat, TET binding to myelin appears to prevent inhibition of brain mitochondrial ATPase, and the target of toxic action may be myelin. In the neonateal rat, TET may inhibit oxidative phosphorylation in unmyelinated brain tissue, leading to neuronal cell death.

(1) Mitochondrial ATPase (F1) is influenced by specific nucleotides in its kinetic behavior towards its substrates. In this work, initial hydrolysis rates, as well as continuous reaction progress, were measured by recording proton production (equivalent to triphosphate hydrolysis). (2) After preincubation with ATP, F1 hydrolyzes MgITP partly as if it were MgATP, with respect to temperature dependence and 2,4-dinitrophenol inhibition/stimulation. (3) Acetyl ATP is a competitive inhibitor versus ATP on the F1-ATPase. With F1 which has been freed of ambient ATP by repeated precipitations with ammonium sulfate the Ki of acetyl ATP is 400 nM. (4) F1-ATPase which was depleted of bound nucleotides in the presence of glycerol (Garret, N.E. and Penefsky, H.S. (1975) J. Biol. Chem. 250, 6640-6647) was preincubated with ADP and acetyl ATP. These preparations were assayed for hydrolytic activity with MgITP as substrate. Compared to a nonpreincubated control enzyme, the hydrolysis with these preparations was first stimulated, then inhibited. This stimulation/inhibition effect is most pronounced at 10 degrees C, but is also observed at 20 degrees C. (5) When nucleotide-depleted enzyme is preincubated with acetyl AMP, its ability to hydrolyze MgITP slowly decreases to approx. 50% after 60 min. This effect is reversed by further preincubation with acetyl ATP. It is speculated that under appropriate conditions AMP may exist or arise in a buried position on F1-ATPase, and act there as an inhibitor of MgITP hydrolysis.

Mitochondrial ATPase inhibitor protein (IF1) reacts reversibly with complex V and inhibits up to 90% of its ATPase activity. Both the rate and extent of inhibition are pH and temperature dependent and increase as the pH is lowered from pH 8 tp 6.7 (the lowest pH examined) or as the temperature is increased from 4 to 36 degrees C. Nucleotide triphosphates plus Mg2+ ions are required for inhibition of complex V ATPase activity by IF1. In the presence of Mg2+ ions, the effectiveness order of nucleotides is ATP greater than ITP greater than GTP greater than UTP. Highly purified complex V, which requires added phospholipids for expressing ATPase and ATP-Pi exchange activities, cannot be inhibited by IF1 plust ATP-Mg2+ unless phospholipids are also added. This indicates that the active state of the enzyme is necessary for the IF1 effect to be manifested, because F1-ATPase, which does not contain nor require phospholipids for catalyzing ATP hydrolysis, can be inhibited by IF1 plus ATP-Mg2+ in the absence of added phospholipids. The IF1-inhibited complex V, but not IF1-inhibited F1-ATPase, can be reactivated by incubation at pH greater than 7.0 in the absence of ATP-Mg2+. The reactivation rate is pH dependent and is influenced by temperature and enzyme concentration. Complex V preparations contain small and variable amounts of IF1. This endogenous IF1 behaves the same as added IF1 with respect to conditions described above for inhibition and reactivation and can result in 25-50% inhibition in different complex V preparations. However, complex V lacking endogenous IF1 can be reconstituted from F0, F1, oligomycin sensitivity conferring protein, and phospholipids. Inhibition of this reconstituted preparation in the presence of ATP-Mg2+ depends entirely on addition of IF1. In general, the ATP-Pi exchange activity of complex V is more sensitive to the chemical inhibitors of F1-AtPase tha its ATPase activity. This is not so, however, for IF1. Under conditions that IF1 caused approximately 75% inhibition of ATPase activity of complex V, no more than 10% of the ATP-Pi exchange activity was inhibited.

Mitochondrial adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) of the ciliate protozoon Tetrahymena pyriformis ST is completely inhibited by antiserum prepared against F1-ATPase purified from Schizosaccharomyces pombe, and by naturally occurring inhibitor proteins from this yeast and from bovine heart mitochondria. An ATPase inhibitor protein is also present in extracts of T. pyriformis. Mitochondrial ATPase of T. pyriformis is only partially inhibited by the F0-ATPase inhibitors N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, oligomycin, leucinostatin, triethyltin sulphate and venturicidin, and (at high titres) by the F1-ATPase inhibitors Dio-9, efrapeptin, 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzofurazan and spegazzinine. Aurovertin, citreoviridin and quercetin were not inhibitory. Resistance to inhibitors distinguishes this mitochondrial ATPase from all those previously examined.

Mitochondrial ATPase of Leishmania donovani was characterized using digitonin-permeabilized promastigotes and the results were compared with those from isolated mitochondria. Maximum mitochondrial ATPase activity was obtained in promastigotes permeabilized with digitonin at a final concentration of 20 microM and the specific activity of the enzyme was 46% and 57% higher than that of homogenized and sonicated promastigotes, respectively. At concentrations above 20 microM digitonin inhibited ATPase activity and the degree of inhibition increased with increasing concentrations of the detergent. The ATPase activity of promastigotes remained DCCD-sensitive when permeabilized with digitonin at concentrations up to 120 microM but the enzyme became increasingly resistant to this inhibitor as digitonin concentrations were increased to 140 microM and more, indicating the loss of functional activity of the enzyme. The pH and temperature optima for mitochondrial ATPase were determined to be 7.5 and 30 degrees C, respectively. Mg2+ ions were essential for ATPase activity but free Mg2+ ions were found to be inhibitory. A Mg2+/ATP ratio of 1:3 supported the optimum ATPase activity. Sulfite and hexanol activated the enzyme but failed to prevent the inhibition by free Mg2+ ions. The results indicate that digitonin-permeabilized promastigotes provide an ideal system for studying the mitochondrial ATPase of L. donovani.

In the crystal structure of the mitochondrial F(1)-ATPase, the beta-Thr(163) residue was identified as a ligand to Mg(2+) and the beta-Glu(188) as directly involved in catalysis. We replaced the equivalent beta-Thr(159) of the chromatophore F(0)F(1) ATP synthase of Rhodospirillum rubrum with Ser, Ala, or Val and the Glu(184) with Gln or Lys. The mutant beta subunits were isolated and tested for their capacity to assemble into a beta-less chromatophore F(0)F(1) and restore its lost activities. All of them were found to bind into the beta-less enzyme with the same efficiency as the wild type beta subunit, but only the beta-Thr(159) --> Ser mutant restored the activity of the assembled enzyme. These results indicate that both Thr(159) and Glu(184) are not required for assembly and that Glu(184) is indeed essential for all the membrane-bound chromatophore F(0)F(1) activities. A detailed comparison between the wild type and the beta-Thr(159) --> Ser mutant revealed a rather surprising difference. Although this mutant restored the wild type levels and all specific properties of this F(0)F(1) proton-coupled ATP synthesis as well as Mg- and Mn-dependent ATP hydrolysis, it did not restore at all the proton-decoupled CaATPase activity. This clear difference between the ligands for Mg(2+) and Mn(2+), where threonine can be replaced by serine, and Ca(2+), where only threonine is active, suggests that the beta-subunit catalytic site has different conformational states when occupied by Ca(2+) as compared with Mg(2+). These different states might result in different interactions between the beta and gamma subunits, which are involved in linking F(1) catalysis with F(0) proton-translocation and can thus explain the complete absence of Ca-dependent proton-coupled F(0)F(1) catalytic activity.

PMID:Mutations in the beta-subunit Thr(159) and Glu(184) of the Rhodospirillum rubrum F(0)F(1) ATP synthase reveal differences in ligands for the coupled Mg(2+)- and decoupled Ca(2+)-dependent F(0)F(1) activities. 1062 25

Characterisation of 35 Kluyveromyces lactis strains lacking mitochondrial DNA has shown that mutations suppressing rho(0)-lethality are limited to the ATP1, 2 and 3 genes coding for the alpha-, beta- and gamma- subunits of mitochondrial F(1)-ATPase. All atp mutations reduce growth on glucose and three alleles, atp1-2, 1-3 and atp3-1, produce a respiratory deficient phenotype that indicates a drop in efficiency of the F(1)F(0)-ATP synthase complex. ATPase activity is needed for suppression as a double mutant containing an atp allele, together with a mutation abolishing catalytic activity, does not suppress rho(0)-lethality. Positioning of the seven amino acids subject to mutation on the bovine F(1)-ATPase structure shows that two residues are found in a membrane proximal region while five amino acids occur at a region suggested to be a molecular bearing. The intriguing juxtaposition of mutable amino acids to other residues subject to change suggests that mutations affect subunit interactions and alter the properties of F(1) in a manner yet to be determined. An explanation for suppressor activity of atp mutations is discussed in the context of a possible role for F(1)-ATPase in the maintenance of mitochondrial inner membrane potential.

To better define the regulatory role of the F(1)-ATPase alpha-subunit in the catalytic cycle of the ATP synthase complex, we isolated suppressors of mutations occurring in ATP1, the gene for the alpha-subunit in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. First, two atp1 mutations (atp1-1 and atp1-2) were characterized that prevent the growth of yeast on non-fermentable carbon sources. Both mutants contained full-length F(1)alpha-subunit proteins in mitochondria, but in lower amounts than that in the parental strain. Both mutants exhibited barely measurable F(1)-ATPase activity. The primary mutations in atp1-1 and atp1-2 were identified as Thr(383) --> Ile and Gly(291) --> Asp, respectively. From recent structural data, position 383 lies within the catalytic site. Position 291 is located near the region affecting subunit-subunit interaction with the F(1)beta-subunit. An unlinked suppressor gene, ASC1 (alpha-subunit complementing) of the atp1-2 mutation (Gly(291) --> Asp) restored the growth defect phenotype on glycerol, but did not suppress either atp1-1 or the deletion mutant Deltaatp1. Sequence analysis revealed that ASC1 was allelic with RAS2, a G-protein growth regulator. The introduction of ASC1/RAS2 into the atp1-2 mutant increased the F(1)-ATPase enzyme activity in this mutant when the transformant was grown on glycerol. The possible mechanisms of ASC1/RAS2 suppression of atp1-2 are discussed; we suggest that RAS2 is part of the regulatory circuit involved in the control of F(1)-ATPase subunit levels in mitochondria.

Previously, we generated genetically fused dimers and trimers of subunit c of the Escherichia coli ATP synthase based upon the precedent of naturally occurring dimers in V-type H(+)-transporting ATPases. The c(2) and c(3) oligomers have proven useful in testing hypothesis regarding the mechanism of energy coupling. In the first part of this paper, the uncoupling Q42E substitution has been introduced into the second loop of the c(2) dimer or the third loop of the c(3) trimer. Both mutant proteins proved to be as functional as the wild type c(2) dimer or wild type c(3) trimer. The results argue against an obligatory movement of the epsilon subunit between loops of monomeric subunit c in the c(12) oligomer during rotary catalysis. Rather, the results support the hypothesis that the c-epsilon connection remains fixed as the c-oligomer rotates. In the second section of this paper, we report on the effect of substitution of the proton translocating Asp(61) in every second helical hairpin of the c(2) dimer, or in every third hairpin of the c(3) trimer. Based upon the precedent of V-type ATPases, where the c(2) dimer occurs naturally with a single proton translocating carboxyl in every second hairpin, these modified versions of the E. coli c(2) and c(3) fused proteins were predicted to have a functional H(+)-transporting ATPase activity, with a reduced H(+)/ATP stoichiometry, but to be inactive as ATP synthases. A variety of Asp(61)-substituted proteins proved to lack either activity indicating that the switch in function in V-type ATPases is a consequence of more than a single substitution.

The Mg(2+) cofactor of the F(1)F(0) ATP synthase is required for the asymmetry of the catalytic sites that leads to the differences in affinity for nucleotides. Vanadyl (V(IV)=O)(2+) is a functional surrogate for Mg(2+) in the F(1)-ATPase. The (51)V-hyperfine parameters derived from EPR spectra of VO(2+) bound to specific sites on the enzyme provide a direct probe of the metal ligands at each site. Site-directed mutations of residues that serve as metal ligands were found to cause measurable changes in the (51)V-hyperfine parameters of the bound VO(2+), thereby providing a means by which metal ligands were identified in the functional enzyme in several conformations. At the low-affinity catalytic site comparable to beta(E) in mitochondrial F(1), activation of the chloroplast F(1)-ATPase activity induces a conformational change that inserts the P-loop threonine and catch-loop tyrosine hydroxyl groups into the metal coordination sphere thereby displacing an amino group and the Walker homology B aspartate. Kinetic evidence suggests that coordination of this tyrosine by the metal when the empty site binds substrate may provide an escapement mechanism that allows the gamma subunit to rotate and the conformation of the catalytic sites to change, thereby allowing rotation only when the catalytic sites are filled. In the high-affinity conformation analogous to the beta(DP) site of mitochondrial F(1), the catch-loop tyrosine has been displaced by carboxyl groups from the Walker homology B aspartate and from betaE197 in Chlamydomonas CF(1). Coordination of the metal by these carboxyl groups contributes significantly to the ability of the enzyme to bind the nucleotide with high affinity.
