The conformations of the transitory intermediates of the myosin ATPase occurring during the hydrolytic cycle, enzyme without ligand, enzyme-substrate complex and two different forms of enzyme-product complex, have been characterized in terms of numbers and classes of reactive thiol groups based on incorporation of radioactively labeled alkylation reagent. The techniques employed allowed this to be done under steady-state conditions in the presence of high ligand concentrations on intact myosin from rabbit fast skeletal muscles at low ionic strength where the protein is in the gel state as it is in muscle. The binding of a divalent cation (Mg2+ or Ca2+) nucleotide complex exposes thiol-1 as well as thiol-2 groups. The long-lived ATPase intermediate occurring at temperatures above 10 degrees C adopts the same conformation with Mg2+ and Ca2+ ions. This intermediate does not protect the thiol-1 and thiol-2 groups but exposes a number of thiol-3 groups which seem to be located distant from the active site. The conformation of the intermediate prevailing in the presence of ATP changes with lowering temperature below 10 degrees C and is identical with that found in the presence of ADP at 0 degree C indicating a change in the rate-limiting step of the hydrolytic cycle. In the absence of divalent cations no such temperature-dependent change in conformation was observed. Evaluation of the activation entropies shows that the structure of the long-lived intermediate occurring above 10 degrees C in the presence of Mg2+ ions goes through a transformation from low to high order at around 20 degrees C. In the case of the monovalent-cation-stimulated ATPase a constant activation energy of around 70 kJ/mol, typical of many enzyme reactions, was found over the entire temperature range from 0--35 degrees C.

Myosin and creatine kinase were co-immobilized onto Immunodyne films to mimic the behaviour of creatine kinase bound to the M-line of myofilaments. The Mg-ATPase activity of bound myosin was studied by a coupled enzymatic assay, which detects Mg-ADP in the bulk solution by means of pyruvate kinase and lactate dehydrogenase. The competition for Mg-ADP between pyruvate kinase and creatine kinase either free in solution or co-immobilized with myosin was studied at various creatine phosphate concentrations. Bound creatine kinase competed efficiently when present in very low amounts, corresponding to an activity ratio higher than 1:20,000 between creatine kinase and pyruvate kinase and a molar ratio higher than 1:1000 between creatine kinase and myosin. The Mg-ADP produced by myosin ATPase in the vicinity of the film did not diffuse into the bulk solution but, in the presence of creatine phosphate, was recycled into Mg-ATP by the neighbouring creatine kinase. The existence of an unstirred layer near the surface of the film is sufficient to explain the channeling of ADP (or ATP) between co-immobilized myosin and creatine kinase, without direct interaction or 'intimate coupling' between the enzymes. The problem now is to determine the importance of this kind of facilitated diffusion in the myofilaments in vivo.

Inhibition of the myosin subfragment 1 (S-1) ATPase activity by beryllium fluoride was studied directly in the presence of MgATP and following preincubation of samples with MgADP. In both cases, the rates of inhibition were very slow, with kapp = 0.5 and 58 M-1 s-1, respectively, in analogy to the rates of inhibition of myosin ATPase by vanadate [Goodno, C. C. (1979) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 76, 2620-2624]. The very different rates of inhibition in the presence of MgATP and on preincubation with MgADP suggested that beryllium fluoride binds to the M.ADP state of myosin. The slow inhibition rates and the nonlinear dependence of the observed rates on beryllium fluoride concentration were consistent with a two-step inhibition process involving a rapid binding equilibrium to yield a collisional complex, M.ADP.BeF3-, and its slow isomerization into M++.ADP.BeF3-. A third, much slower, step was required to account for the conversion of the stable M++.ADP.BeF3- to a virtually irreversibly inhibited complex. Kinetic description of the inhibition pathway was derived from the observed rates of inhibition of myosin ATPase, information on the binding of beryllium fluoride to M.ADP, and measurements of epsilon ADP chase from M++.epsilon ADP.BeF3-. The isomerization rate and equilibrium constants were 1.4 x 10(-2) s-1 and 50, respectively, and the overall binding constant of beryllium fluoride to M.ADP was 5 x 10(5) M-1. The inhibitory complex showed a 16% enhancement to tryptophan fluorescence of S-1 and a reduced quenching of epsilon ADP by acrylamide. It is concluded that M++.ADP.BeF3- is analogous to the M++.ADP.Vi and M**.ADP.Pi states of myosin.

It was shown that the highly purified monoaldehyde derivative of ADP obtained by partial reduction of the dialdehyde derivative of ADP causes strong irreversible inhibition of the Ca-ATPase activity of myosin subfragment I, the inhibiting effect being of the affinity modification type. The addition to the reaction medium of Mg2+ (but not Ca2+) during the subfragment I interaction with the inhibitor fully prevents the inhibiting effect at all substrates used (Ca-, Mg- or K, EDTA-ATPases). Contrariwise, the subfragment I modified in the absence of Mg2+ exhibits the same degree of inhibition for all the three types of the ATPase activity. An unexpected result that was previously unobserved for other affinity modifiers of myosin ATPase is the maintenance of activity in 50% of active centers, when "two-head" forms of the enzyme (the myosin proper and heavy meromyosin, HMM) are modified. Noteworthy that the affinity modification reaction is characterized by the same values of inhibition constants as in the case of myosin subfragment I (Ki = 3.3-3.5 X 10(-4) M; ki = 0.03-0.04 min-1). This finding provides additional evidence in favour of functional asymmetry of myosin heads in the myosin molecule which seems to be due to the screening of the active center of one head by the other one.

Permeabilized endothelial cell monolayers retracted on exposure to ATP and Ca2+. ADP, inosine triphosphate (ITP), GTP, adenosine 5'-(gamma-thio)triphosphate (ATP-gamma S), and 5'-adenylylimidodiphosphate failed to support retraction. However, ATP gamma S, a substrate for myosin light-chain kinase (MLCK) but not myosin adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase), combined with ITP, a substrate for myosin ATPase but not MLCK, supported retraction. Two MLCK pseudosubstrate peptides, M5 and SM-1, inhibited endothelial cell retraction equally and more effectively than myosin kinase-inhibitory peptide with a sequence based on the phosphorylated site of myosin light chain. M5 was shown to inhibit thiophosphorylation of endothelial cell myosin light chains. Endothelial cells incubated with exogenous unregulated kinase in the presence of ethylene glycol-bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetra-acetic acid retracted on addition of ATP. This retraction was accompanied by thiophosphorylation of the 19 kDa myosin light chains in the presence of ATP gamma 35S. The N-ethylmaleimide-modified subfragment 1 of myosin heads, a specific inhibitor of actin-myosin interaction, prevented retraction. These data add support to the proposal of a central role for MLCK activation of myosin in endothelial retraction.

The localization of creatine kinase M (CK-M) in both normal and acute ischemic canine myocardial cells was studied by immunoelectron microscopy using the anti-CK-M Fab'-horseradish peroxidase conjugate. Myocardial ischemia was induced by occlusion of the left anterior descending coronary artery for 15, 60, or 180 minutes. In the normal myocardial cells, CK-M was localized mostly in the A-band and some in the Z-line, M-line, sarcolemmal membrane, and membrane of sarcoplasmic reticulum. Most CK-M in the A-band appeared to associate with thick fibers. This finding strongly suggests that the CK associated with thick fibers may be the enzyme to rephosphorylate ADP produced by myosin ATPase. In 15 minutes of myocardial ischemia, CK-M showed only minimal changes in its location, i.e., almost similar to normal, indicating that the CK in the A-band still has the ability to couple with myosin ATPase. However, in 60 and 180 minutes of ischemia, the A-band CK dissociated markedly from thick fibers, diffused to the I-band and leaked out to the intercellular spaces. These results suggest that the dissociation and disappearance of the A-band CK from thick fibers induced by progress of myocardial ischemia disrupt the myocardial energy transport system via CK reaction, and lead to the irreversible injury of myocardial cells.

Three kinds of ATP analogues were synthesized. These ATP analogues can be classified into two conformations, i.e. syn and anti forms with respect to the N-glycosidic bond between adenine and ribose groups of ATP. 3'-O-(N-Methylanthraniloyl)-2-azidoadenosine 5'-triphosphate (MantN2(3)ATP) is recognized as the anti form, as ATP, and the other two, 3'-O-(N-methylanthraniloyl)-8-azidoadenosine 5'-triphosphate (MantN8(3)ATP) and 1,N6-etheno-8-azidoadenosine 5'-triphosphate (epsilon N8(3)ATP) are both syn forms. Mant and etheno groups are both fluorescent which allows detection of their binding to proteins. The photochemical binding of azido groups in ATP analogues to the myosin active site, examined in the presence and absence of ATP, showed that all the analogues bound to the site of myosin ATPase. These analogues also acted as substrates of the ATPase and were hydrolyzed in the active site, as judged by competitive inhibition of the ATPase and by their ATPase activities. Of these analogues, MantN2(3)ATP is very similar to ATP in divalent-cation dependence of its hydrolysis rate and in its ability to trap ADP in the active site with vanadate, while the other two are different from ATP in these respects. The photochemical binding sites of ATP analogues were localized by gel electrophoresis of trypsinized myosin ATPase with photocross-linked ATP analogues and/or by isolating the modified peptides. MantN2(3)ATP was found in the 23-kDa fragment which has a structure common to ATP-binding proteins, i.e. Gly-Xaa-Xaa-Gly-Xaa-Gly-Lys-Thr. Mant N8(3)ATP was found in a region of the 20-kDa fragment where actin is reported to attach.

During muscular contraction the regeneration of ATP, catalysed by creatine kinase (CK), keeps pace with the hydrolysis of ATP by myosin ATPase posing the question of its regulatory mechanism. In the background of F-actin activation of heavy meromyosin (HMM) ATPase activity we have investigated in vitro the role of F-actin in regulating CK's activity in the absence and presence of HMM. For the coupled enzyme system we have also looked into the roles played by the individual reactants. F-actin has been found to appreciably increase CK's activity in the absence of HMM. While HMM alone inhibited CK's activity, there was a several fold increase when F-actin was also present. By a process of elimination we conclude that none of the reactants apart from H+ could be involved in regulating CK's activity in the coupled enzyme system. As no change in the pH of reaction mixture was observed during the reaction, we further conclude that the two enzymic reactions are coupled by proton transfer along F-actin. Implications of the findings for PCr-Cr shuttle and movements of ATP and ADP in sarcomere are discussed.

Myosin (opaque myosin) isolated from the opaque portion of scallop smooth muscle, a catch muscle, was subjected to limited digestion by trypsin during the steady-state ATPase reaction. The 200-kDa heavy chain of opaque myosin was cleaved into 125- and 74-kDa fragments. The proteolytic rate in the absence of Ca2+ was lower than that in the presence of Ca2+, and was similar to that in the presence of ADP and absence of Ca2+. The results suggest that the steady-state intermediate of opaque myosin ATPase in the absence of Ca2+ is EADP, which is consistent with the previous results based on the difference UV-absorption spectrum (Takahashi, M., Sohma, H., & Morita, F. (1988) J. Biochem. 104, 102-107). In the presence of F-actin, the proteolytic rates were decreased, but the digestive patterns by trypsin were similar to those of myosin alone. Even in the presence of F-actin, the proteolytic rate during the ATPase reaction in the absence of Ca2+ was lower than that in the presence of Ca2+, and was similar to that in the presence of ADP and absence of Ca2+. In addition, there was another trypsin-susceptible site which is probably located at 18 kDa from the N-terminal of the heavy chain. The site in the absence of Ca2+ was hardly cleaved when ATP or ADP was present. Similar tendencies were observed even in the presence of F-actin. These findings suggest that the intermediate of opaque myosin ATPase at the steady state in the absence of Ca2+ is EADP even in the presence of F-actin.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

The localization of creatine kinase (CK) M in canine myocardium was immunocytochemically studied by a direct immunoperoxidase method. Specific antiserum against CK-M was produced in rabbits immunized with canine CK-MM. An anti-CK-M Fab'-horseradish peroxidase conjugate was prepared by the maleimide method. Frozen sections prepared from fixed canine myocardium were stained with the conjugate and observed by light and electron microscopy. In light microscopy of longitudinal sections, CK-M showed a cross-striated pattern consisting of distinct broad and narrow brown bands. Immunoelectron microscopy revealed that the regions of the broad and narrow brown bands corresponded to the A-band and the Z-line, respectively. Most CK-M in the A-band was associated with the thick fibers, and a small amount of CK-M was found in the M-line. These findings suggest that ATP regeneration from the ADP produced by myosin ATPase is related to the participation of this CK associated with the thick fibers rather than that of the M-line-bound CK. Creatine kinase M was also found in the sarcolemmal membrane, the membranes of the sarcoplasmic reticulum, and the mitochondrial outer and inner membranes. This report provides new information for understanding the physiological role of the phosphorylcreatine shuttle in the myocardial energy transport system.
