Soluble mitochondrial ATPase (F1) isolated from Neurospora crassa is resolved by dodecylsulfate-gel electrophoresis into five polypeptide bands with apparent molecular weights of 59000, 55000, 36000, 15000 and 12000. At least nine further polypeptides remain associated with ATPase after disintegration of mitochondria with Triton X-100 as shown by the analysis of an immunoprecipitate obtained with antiserum to F1 ATPase. Two of the associated polypeptides with apparent molecular weights of 19000 and 11000 are translated on mitochondrial ribosomes, as demonstrated by incorporation in vivo of radioactive leucine in the presence of specific inhibitors of mitochondrial (chloramphenicol) and extramitochondrial (cycloheximide) protein synthesis. The appearance of mitochondrial translation products in the immunoprecipitated ATPase complex is inhibited by cycloheximide.. The same applies for some of the extramitochondrial translation products in the presence of chloramphenicol. This suggests that both types of polypeptides are necessary for the assembly of the ATPase complex

The diazido derivative of ethidium bromide has been synthesized as a potential photoaffinity label and shown to be at least as effective as a mitochondrial mutagen as the parent compound, with a similar mode of action. Exposure of mitochondria of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to the compound, followed by ultraviolet-irradiation, which converts it to the highly reactive dinitrene, results in its specific binding to a single component which has been tentatively identified as the smallest polypeptide (subunit 9) of the membrane-bound ATPase. An analogus reaction is also obtained with the soluble, oligomycin-sensitive ATPase complex but not with the F1-ATPase itself. The reaction with the ATPase complex can also be monitored by fluorescence enhancement and by this attribute, as well as by other criteria, diazido-ethidium bromide, ethidium bromide itself, euflavine, N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, 2,4-dinitrophenol, and 2-azido-4-nitrophenol all appear to compete for the same, lipophilic, binding site. A mitochondrial mutation (73/1) (see Flury, U., Feldman, F., and Mahler, H.R. (1974) J. Biol. Chem. 249, 6630-6637) produces a photoaffinity product with an altered electrophoretic mobility and molecular weight.

A bean chloroplast coupling factor (CF1) with latent Ca2+-dependent ATPase activity was studied. Immunodiffusion of bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) chloroplast and etioplast coupling factors and spinach coupling factor against antiserum to spinach coupling factor showed partial identity of the bean coupling factor with that of spinach. An immunoelectrophoretic comparison, under dissociating conditions, of bean leaf extracts and spinach extracts containing CF1 subunits (as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis) gave identical results for both extracts. At least six distinct polypeptide species were found. The major species had molecular weights of 42 000, 59 000 and 63 000 daltons. Amino acid analysis of electrophoretically purified bean CF1 gave results similar to those published for spinach CF1.

The preparation of highly purified F1-ATPase from Micrococcus sp. ATCC 398 by application of DEAE-Sepharose CL-6B chromatography as final step is described. This enzyme consists of five subunits of different molecular weight: alpha (65000), beta (55000),gamma (35000), delta (20000), and epsilon (17000). Disc electrophoresis on 5% polyacrylamide gels removes the epsilon-polypeptide yielding an active ATPase complex with four different subunits: alpha, beta, gamma, delta. Additionally, by variation of the ionic strength delta can (partly) removed allowing the isolation by disc electrophoresis of an active ATPase complex which consists only of three different subunits alpha, beta, and gamma. If the DEAE-Sepharose chromatography is carried out in the absence of diisopropyl phosphofluoridate (auto)proteolysis yields both an active ATPase with the subunits alpha+ (mol. wt 61000), beta, gamma, and delta and an inactive protein complex with the subunits alpha+, beta, gamma, delta, and two additional polypeptides a (mol. wt 38000) and b (mol. wt 23000). The latter two polypeptides are supposedly fragments of alpha+-chains which have become partially cleaved by (auto)proteolysis.

The reaction of 7-chloro-4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole [NBD-Cl] with purified eel electrophax Na+ and K+ stimulated adenosine triphosphatase [(Na-K)ATPase] has been monitored by changes in the (Na-K)ATPase activity, the K+ stimulated p-nitrophenyl phosphatase [PNPase] activity, and the protein ultraviolet absorption spectrum. The NBD-Cl reacts with two tyrosine residues per mol of enzyme (approximately 6-7 nmol/mg of protein), as judged by changes in protein absorption spectra and incorporation of [14C]NBD-Cl. The modified tyrosine groups are located on the Mr = 95 000 polypeptide chain and react at different rates. Only one tyrosine modification is necessary for complete inhibition of (Na-K)ATPase activity, although both must be modified for complete inhibition of PNPase activity. Reversal of these modifications by 2-mercaptoethanol restores 65% of both activities. Na+ increases the rate of tyrosine modification, K+ decreases the rate, and ATP affords the more reactive tyrosine group complete protection. NBD-Cl modification of approximately 6-7 nmol of tyrosine groups/mg of protein results in a large decrease in ATP affinity as judged by equilibrium binding. These results are compared with similar results obtained from NBD-Cl modification of the coupling factors of oxidative phosphorylation and photophosphorylation. A model is presented suggesting an asymmetric arrangement of two 95 000 polypeptide chains with a single tyrosine residue at the ATP site.

The mitochondrial F1-ATPase is irreversibly inactivated by the adenine nucleotide analogue, p-fluorosulfonylbenzoyl-5'-adenosine. This inactivation is partly prevented by the presence of bound adenine nucleotides. Inactivations of the ATPase with p-fluorosulfonyl[14C]benzoyl-5'-adenosine were most efficiently accomplished with the nucleotide-free enzyme at pH 7.0, in a buffer containing 20% glycerol. Under these conditions, 4.2 g atoms of 14C are incorporated per 350,000 g of enzyme when the ATPase is inactivated by 90% by its reaction with 2 mM p-fluorosulfonyl[14C]benzoyl-5'-adenosine. Isolation of the component polypeptide chains of the labeled ATPase showed that all of the radioactivity was associated with the two largest subunits. The isolated alpha subunit contained 0.45 g atom of 14C/mol and the isolated beta subunit contained 0.88 g atom of 14C/mol. Hence, the inactivation can be correlated with the incorporation of 14C into the beta subunit. This suggests that the hydrolytic site of the enzyme resides on this subunit. The majority of the radioactivity in a tryptic digest of labeled beta subunit is contained ina tryptic peptide that has the following amino acid sequence: Ile-Met-Asp-Pro-Asn-Ile-Val-Gly-Ser-Glu-His-Tyr-Asp-Val-Ala-Arg, where Tyr is the radioactive derivative of the tyrosine residue that was sulfonylated during the inactivation.

1. The subunit compositions of the F1 (oligomycin-insensitive) and F1--F0 (oligomycin-sensitive) mitochondrial ATPase complexes from Saccharomyces cerevisiae have been examined by the highly resolving technique of sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide slab gel electrophoresis using a discontinuous buffer system. When isolated in the presence of protease inhibitors, F1 and F1--F0 contained five and twelve bands, respectively; this contrasts with the four- and ten-band patterns seen previously using the less resolving disc gel method. When isolated in the absence of protease inhibitors both F1 and F1--F0 contain spurious polypeptides produced by proteolytic modification. 2. Endogenous protein turnover in S. cerevisiae was impaired in the presence of protease inhibitors. F1--F0 isolated from cells grown in the presence and absence of inhibitors contained an identical polypeptide composition, suggesting that the subunits are not significantly modified by endogenous proteases prior to cell harvesting. 3. Yeast F1--F0 prepared in the presence of protease inhibitors contains a latent, sodium dodecyl sulphate-activated protease contaminant. Sodium dodecyl sulphate-induced proteolysis is largely confined to the 52 000 dalton alpha subunit which degrades into polypeptides of 40 000 and 10 700 daltons. The 40 000 dalton band is apparently equivalent to the polypeptide previously designated subunit 3. 4. Both F1 and F1--F0 were isolated from Torulopsis glabrata, a yeast with considerably shorter mitochondrial DNA than that in S. cerevisiae. F1--F0 catalysed high rates of ATP--32Pi exchange when reconstituted into phospholipid vesicles, thus demonstrating the presence of a complete coupling mechanism. F1--F0 contained approximately twelve subunits and F1 five, like the S. cerevisiae complexes. It therefore appears that the shorter mitochondrial DNA length does not produce a significantly simpler ATPase subunit structure.

Incubation of mitochondria from Neurospora crassa and Saccharomyces cerevisiae with the radioactive ATPase inhibitor [14C]dicyclohexylcarbodiimide results in the irreversible and rather specific labelling of a low-molecular-weight polypeptide. This dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-binding protein is identical with the smallest subunit (Mr 8000) of the mitochondrial ATPase complex, and it occurs as oligomer, probably as hexamer, in the enzyme protein. The dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-binding protein is extracted from whole mitochondria with neutral chloroform/methanol both in the free and in the inhibitor-modified form. In Neurospora and yeast, this extraction is highly selective and the protein is obtained in homogeneous form when the mitochondria have been prewashed with certain organic solvents. The bound dicyclohexylcarbodiimide label is enriched in the purified protein up to 50-fold compared to whole mitochondria. Based on the amino acid analysis, the dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-binding protein from Neurospora and yeast consists of at least 81 and 76 residues, respectively. The content of hydrophobic residues is extremely high. Histidine and tryptophan are absent. The N-terminal amino acid is tyrosine in Neurospora and formylmethionine in yeast.

(1) The histochemical staining pattern of succinic dehydrogenase (SDH) does not show unequivocal differentiation between the type I red and type II red fibres in mammalian striated muscles. (2) Since high biochemical activity of beta-hydroxybutyric dehydrogenase (beta-HOBDH) occurs in mitochondria of the type I red fibres, the histochemical localization of this enzyme may show a pattern of staining reciprocal to that seen for myofibrillar ATPase. (3) It remains to be confirmed that the type I red fibres, which are possibly slow-twitch physiologically, possess the highest concentration of myoglobin. The histochemical correlation of myoglobin and myofibrillar ATPase in serial sections should be studied. (4) In order to achieve a more realistic picture, various glycolytic and glycogenolytic enzymes should be incubated according to the gelatin film technique, or semipermeable membrane technique or collagen polypeptide technique. A histochemical correlation of phosphorylase, LDH, PFK, alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase, and myofibrillar ATPase in adjacent muscle sections may throw light on the histochemical characteristics of the different fibre-types. (5) The specific histochemical demonstration of AMPase is achieved following preincubation of tissue sections. (6) ADPase has been demonstrated by the calcium precipitation technique only (GUTH and YELLIN, 1971). A number of studies claim, however, that ADPase is not demonstrable histochemically in muscle fibres. (7) The presence of magnesium ions is a prerequisite for the adequate histochemical demonstration of mitochondrial ATPase. The latter is inhibited almost completely by 40 mM Ca++ (when Mg++ is not added) at both neutral and alkaline pH values. (8) The histochemical activity of SR-AT-Pase seen as continuous reticula but without punctuate and sub-sarcolemmal staining possibly represents the extra ATPase of SR. (9) On the basis of myofibrillar ATPase reaction, an inherent heterogeneity, between the type II red and type II white may be recognized. In addition, the above fibre-types possess their respective sub-populations. (10) Following diK+ EDTA preincubation, some type II red fibres show selective lability. These are the mitochondria-rich fibres. Thus in the total absence of both punctuate and subsarcolemmal staining, the presence of mitochondrial ATPase activity under the histochemical conditions for myofibrillar ATPase is unlikely. (11) The reaction pattern of CK/ATPase (coupled reaction) at pH 6.9 is distinctly intermyofibrillar and unlike SDH-pattern. This reticular reaction is associated mainly with the SR and hence the importance of transphosphorylation in this organelle for the Ca++ uptake and muscle relaxation. (12) The CK/ATPase reaction at pH8.0 has shown important histoenzymatic characteristics. At this pH value the type I red fibres and slow-twitch soleus show myofibrillar reaction pattern. This identical histochemical behaviour suggests that type I red fibres are possibly slow-contracting...

This paper reviews mechanisms by which the rate of synthesis of subunits of mitochondrial inner membrane protein complexes and the assembly of these subunits are co-ordinated. Current models are evaluated and critically discussed in the light of some recent evidences. The focus is on the incorporation of cytoplasmically-synthesized cytochrome c oxidase subunits in the development of a newer model, which introduces some twists into a combination of several current ideas. A mechanism which governs both organized assembly and the co-ordination of rates of polypeptide synthesis is illustrated and the principles of the model are applied to the elucidation of some odd features of certain mutants. The possibilities that mitochondrial ATPase and cytochrome c reductase may also be synthesized and assembled according to this model are discussed.
