1. F1-ATPase has been extracted by the diphosphatidylglycerol procedure from mitochondrial ATPase complexes that differ in ATPase activity, cold stability, ATPase inhibitor and magnesium content. 2. The ATPase activity of the isolated enzymes was dependent upon the activity of the original particles. In this respect, F1-ATPase extracted from submitochondrial particles prepared in ammonia (pH 9.2) and filtered through Sephadex G-50 was comparable to the enzyme purified by conventional procedures (Horstman, L.L. and Racker, E. (1970) J. Biol. Chem. 245, 1336--1344), whereas F1-ATPase extracted from submitochondrial particles prepared in the presence of magnesium and ATP at neutral pH was similar to factor A (Andreoli, T.E., Lam, K.W. and Sanadi, D.R. (1965) J. Biol. Chem. 240, 2644--2653). 3. No systematic relationship has been found in these F1-ATPase preparations between their ATPase inhibitor content and ATPase activity. Rather, a relationship has been observed between this activity and the efficiency of the ATPase inhibitor-F1-ATPase association within the membrane. 4. It is concluded that the ATPase activity of isolated F1-ATPase reflects the properties of original ATPase complex provided a rapid and not denaturing procedure of isolation is employed.

The effects of a photoaffinity derivate of ATP, arylazido-beta-alanyl-ATP, 3'-O-(3-[N-(4-azido-2-nitrophenyl)amino]propionyl) adenosine 5'-triphosphate, on submitochondrial particles and the partially purified ATPase complex of beef heart mitochondria have been investigated. In the absence of light the ATP analogue has been found to be a substrate for the E132PA1P1-ATP exchange reaction of submitochondrial particles. When photoirradiated in the presence of arylazido-beta-alanyl-ATP, the ATPase activity and the the the [32P]Pi-ATP exchange reaction are inhibited maximally 80%. Arylazido-beta-alanyl-ATP following photolysis is a noncompetitive inhibitor with respect to ATP while arylazido-beta-alanine, the azido-containing adjunct of the ATP analogue, has no inhibitory effect under the same conditions. The inactivating effect of arylazido-beta-alanyl-ATP is prevented in part by the presence of ATP, or ADP and pyrophosphate. Photolabeling produces a covalent binding of the derivative with the F1ATPase being the major protein labeled. The binding of 0.22 mumol of arylazido-beta-alanyl-ATP/mg of mitochondrial protein is associated with a maximal inhibitory effect. The ATPase activity of the partially purified ATPase complex is also sensitive to photoirradiation in the presence of arylazido-beta-alanyl-ATP. When the ATPase complex is associated with liposomes there is an increase in the specific ATPase activity with a 10-fold increase in Vmax and a 4-fold decrease in KmATP associated with a parallel increase in the apparent affinity and maximal inhibitory effect of the arylazido-beta-alanyl-ATP. The photoinhibition of the ATPase complex in the presence of arylazido-beta-alanyl-ATP results in covalent binding of 1.6 mumol of arylazido-beta-alanyl-ATP/mg of protein. The alpha and beta subunits are the only components of the ATPase complex labeled by the [3H]arylazido-beta-alanyl-ATP. The relationship between the arylazido-beta-alanyl-ATP-labeled sites and the nucleotide binding sites on the mitochondrial ATPase is discussed.

A heat-stable protein has been purified from rat liver mitochondria which inhibits the ATP hydrolytic activity of both the soluble and membrane-bound mitochondrial F1-ATPase. The overall purification is about 2400-fold with the major purification step consisting of Sephadex "affinity" chromatography. The purified rat liver inhibitor is homogeneous as assessed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis with an apparent molecular weight of 12,300. Amino acid analysis reveals a high content of glutamic acid, lysine, and arginine and the absence of cysteine, proline and methionine. Whether tested with the rat liver or bovine heart ATPase, the liver inhibitor is equally as potent and specific as the heart inhibitor preparation of Pullman and Monroy (Pullman, M.E., and Monroy, G.C. (1963) J. Biol. Chem. 238, 3762-3769). Although the results presented show that the rat liver ATPase inhibitor resembles closely the ATPase inhibitors from other tissues with respect to specific activity and reaction specificity, it is important to note that the rat liver inhibitor is almost 2000 daltons larger than the bovine heart inhibitor, about 5000 daltons larger than ATPase inhibitors of yeast, and contains significantly more lysine residues than both the bovine heart and yeast inhibitors.

Mixed anhydrides of nucleoside triphosphates and mesitylenecarboxylic acid inhibit soluble mitochondrial ATPase (adenosine triphosphatase), but do not inhibit ATPase of submitochondrial particles. Inhibition of soluble mitochondrial ATPase by the mixed anhydride of epsilon-ATP and mesitylenecarboxylic acid is followed by the covalent binding of one nucleotide residue to a molecule of the protein. It is suggested that this covalent binding occurs in the catalytic site of the mitochondrial ATPase. The mixed anhydride of ADP and mesitylenecarboxylic acid inhibits the ATPase activity of submitochondrial particles and has no effect on the activity of soluble mitochondrial ATPase. After separation of the submitochondrial particles from the mixed anhydride of ADP and mesitylenecarboxylic acid, their ATPase activity is restored to its original value (half-time of reactivation 3--4 min). Incubation of submitochondrial particles or soluble mitochondrial ATPase with the mixed anhydride of ADP and mesitylenecarboxylic acid results in AMP formation.

We investigated the kinetics of mitochondrial ATPase in bovine heart mitochondria and submitochondrial particles upon treatment with phospholipase A2, or upon addition of n-butanol to perturb the lipid protein interactions. The changes observed are the following: (1) Lipid removal or perturbation with butanol is accompanied by loss of ATPase activity with decrease of both V and of the KM for ATP. (2) There are changes of activation energy of ATPase activity at temperatures above the discontinuity normally observed for membrane-bound enzymes in mitochondria. In particular, butanol abolishes the discontinuity, and induces a constant activation energy of about 32 kcal/mol in the range 8--37 degrees C. (3) Butanol modifies the pH dependence of ATPase shifting the pH optimum from around 10 to less alkaline values. The optimum for Mg2+ concentrations is increased by the solvent. (4) Treatment with phospholipase A2 results in a removal of oligomycin-sensitive ATPase, whereas butanol addition prevents oligomycin inhibition of ATPase. (5) In beef heart mitochondria, a spin-labelled analog of the inhibitor, dicyclohexyl carbodiimide, did not show any change in environment upon butanol addition, unlike that found in mitochondria from Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

1. Isolation of ATPase from rat liver submitochondrial particles by chloroform treatment requires the presence of ATP or ADP during enzyme solubilization. In the absence of adenine nucleotides the enzyme activity is very low although all protein components of F1-ATPase are released. The low concentrations of ATP or ADP required (5 microM) indicate that the high affinity nucleotide-binding sites are involved in enzyme stabilization. Other nucleotides tested (ITP, GTP, UTP, CTP) were found to be less effective. 2. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and immunodiffusion in agar plates revealed that in the absence of adenine nucleotides a fraction of F1-ATPase released by chloroform treatment is split into fragments. The part of the dissociated enzyme molecule has a molecular weight identical with that of a beta-subunit of F1-ATPase. 3. Dissociation of the F1-ATPase molecule could also be prevented by aurovertin. 4. Crude F1-ATPase solubilized by chloroform treatment can be further purified by Sepharose 6B gel filtration. Specific ATPase activity of the purified enzyme was 90 mumol Pi/min per mg protein and the enzyme was composed of five protein subunits (alpha, beta, gamma, delta, epsilon) with molecular weights 58 000, 55 000, 28 000, 13 000 and 8000, respectively. 5. Chloroform-released F1-ATPase from rat liver mitochondria displayed immunochemical cross-reactivity with that isolated from beef heart mitochondria.

The latent coupling factor (F1)-ATPase of Micrococcus lysodeikticus has been purified to homogeneity as determined by a number of criteria including, nondenaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, crossed immunoelectrophoresis and analytical ultracentrifugation. By inclusion of 1 mM phenylmethyl sulfonyl fluoride, a serine protease inhibitor, in the shock-wash step of release of F1 from the membranes, the spontaneous activation of both crude and purified ATPase by endogenous membrane protease(s) can be prevented, thereby yielding a highly latent ATPase preparation. Equilibrium ultracentrifugation of the latent ATPase gave a molecular weight of 400 000. The ATPase contained five different subunits alpha, beta, gamma, delta, and espsilon and their molecular weights determined by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis were 60 000, 54 000, 37 000, 27 000 and 9000, respectively. The subunit composition was determined with 14C-labelled, F1-ATPase prepared from cells grown on medium containing [U-14C]-labelled algal protein hydrolysate. Within the limitations of this method the results tentatively suggest a subunit composition of 3 : 3 : 1 : 1 : 3.

The dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-binding protein of Aspergillus nidulans has been identified as the smallest subunit of the mitochondrial ATPase complex, and has a molecular weight of approximately 8000. It is extractable from whole mitochondria and from the purified enzyme in neutral chloroform/methanol, contains 30% polar amino acids, and the N-terminal amino acid has been identified as tyrosine. Using a double-labelling technique in the absence and presence of cycloheximide, followed by immunoprecipitation of the enzyme complex with antiserum against Neuospora crassa F1 ATPase, it has been shown that this subunit is synthesized on cytoplasmic ribosomes.

A series of uncouplers and inhibitors of oxidative phosphorylation have been studied with regard to their effect on the hydrolytic activity of the reduced and oxidized forms of isolated or membrane-bound mitochondrial ATPase. Uncouplers (2,4-dinitrophenol, dicoumarol), which are also activators of the hydrolytic activity of ATPase, were more potent activators on the oxidized form of the enzyme. Inhibitors of oxidative phosphorylation (oligomycin, azide and amytal) had a more potent inhibitory effect on the hydrolytic activity of ATPase in its reduced form. Purified F1-ATPase, oligomycin insensitive in the oxidized form of the enzyme, became sensitive to oligomycin in the reduced form. An interpretation of the results suggests the presence of a mechanism that unifies the action of these different compounds on the synthesis and hydrolysis of ATP catalyzed by mitochondrial ATPase.

Five uncoupled mutant strains of Escherichia coli carrying mutations in the uncD gene have been studied. In each of these mutant strains the beta-subunit of the F1 portion of the membrane-bound adenosine triphosphatase is abnormal. In one of the mutant strains (carrying the uncD12 allele) in F1-ATPase aggregate was formed which was purified and found to have low ATPase activity. ATPase activity was absent in the other four strains and the abnormal beta-subunits were tightly bound to the membranes. However, membranes from these strains exhibited various proton permeabilities as indicated by NADH-dependent atebrin-fluorescence quenching and bound different amounts of normal F1-ATPase. The amounts of reconstitution of energy-linked reactions after the addition of normal F1-ATPase also varied depending on the mutant allele. It is apparent that considerable phenotypic variations can occur between strains carrying mutations in the same unc gene.
