Treatment of phosphorylating fragments of bacterial membrane from Micrococcus lysodeikticus with trypsin leads to increase ATPase activity. As a result of this treatment, the membrane fragments acquire the ability to transform the ATP energy into transmembrane difference in potential. Dithiothreitol has a similar effect to that of trypsin on the membrane fragments from M. lysodeikticus. Dicyclohexylcarbodimide inhibits ATPase of the membrane fragments of M. lysodeikticus, and also the ATPase-reaction-coupled generation of membrane potential. It has been suggested that the increased ATPase activity of membranes from M. lysodeikticus during treatment with trypsin and dithiothreitol is connected with the effect of these agents on the protein inhibitor of ATPase.

A membrane fraction enriched in parathyroid hormone (PTH)-sensitive adenylate cyclase and sodium and potassium ion-activated (Na+, K+)-ATPase was prepared from bovine kidney. Tritiated PTH binding to this membrane fraction was dependent on both hormone and membrane protein concentration. Both total and specific binding of the hormone decreased significantly after 5 to 10 min of incubation at 22 degrees. PTH binding was highly specific, being sensitive to inhibition only with active forms of unlabeled hormone (native and 1-34 PTH). Specific binding showed a pH optimum of 7.3 to 7.5. Inhibition of binding of tritiated hormone by unlabeled PTH was also highly effective at pH 6.0, but this apparently specific binding was also inhibited by adrenocorticotropic hormone, insulin, glucagon, and vasopressin. Dissociation of bound hormone was demonstrated, and an apparent dissociation constant of 4.6 X 10(-2) min-1 was obtained. Specific binding was eliminated by pretreatment of the membranes with trypsin. The concentration dependence for inhibition of binding with unlabeled PTH was identical to that for activation of adenylate cyclase in this membrane preparation, and binding was also inhibited by concentrations of calcium in the 0.5 to 2 mM range.

Binding studies of various nucleotides to the purified coupling factor-latent ATPase from Mycobacterium phlei have been carried out using gel filtration, equilibrium dialysis, and ultrafiltration methods. The purified latent ATPase binds 3 mol of ADP per mol of the enzyme with an apparent dissociation constant of 68 muM. Binding of nucleotides occurred in the decreasing order: ADP, epsilon-ATP, epsilon-ADP, UDP, adenyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate (AMP-P(NH)P), IDP, and adenosine 5'-(alpha,beta-methylene)diphosphate (AdoP(CH2)P). AMP-P(NH)P inhibits both soluble (Ki = 77 muM) and membrane-bound latent ATPase activity. However, AMP-P(NH)P does not affect oxidative phosphorylation in membrane vesicles of M. phlei. AMP-P(NH)P exhibits one binding site per molecule of the enzyme with a dissociation constant of 71 muM. After trypsin treatment of the enzyme, the binding of ADP decreases 35%, while AMP-P(NH)P binding remains unchanged. Moreover, AMP-P(NH)P binding was not displaced by ADP. Studies with sulfhydryl agents showed that, in contrast to AMP-P(NH)P, binding of at least 1 mol of ADP requires the participation of sulfhydryl groups. The results indicate that AMP-P(NH)P and ADP do not share a common binding site and that the latent ATPase enzyme has separate sites for ATP hydrolysis and ATP synthesis.

Myosin from rabbit stomach was highly purified by ammonium sulfate fractionation in the presence of ATP and MgCl2, ultracentrifugation and Sepharose 4B chromatography. The myosin composed of one heavy and two light chains as determined by SDS-gel electrophoresis. The molecular weights of the light chains were the same as those of gizzard myosin, about 20,000 and 17,000, respectively. The pH-activity curve and the KCl concentration dependency of Ca-ATPase of the stomach myosin were similar to those of other smooth muscle myosins. The stomach myosin was more resistant to pepsin digestion than skeletal myosin. Other proteolytic enzymes, trypsin, chymotrypsin, papain, and nagarse, digested the myosin in the same way as skeletal myosin.

Mutants of Bacillus megaterium displaying malate-driven ATP synthesis resistant to uncouplers of oxidative posphorylation are further characterized. Both the pH gradient and electrical potential generated across the membrane by malate respiration are equally sensitive to uncouplers in the wild type and uncoupler-resistant mutants. The mutants possess 0 to 10% of the wild type ATPase activity which is not activated by pretreatment with heat or trypsin. Despite this inability to measure ATPase activity, the mutants demonstrate acid-pulse-driven ATPase synthesis which is sensitive to uncouplers as well as malate-driven ATP synthesis which becomes uncoupler sensitive at pH 5.5. N,N' -Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and valinomycin plus potassium inhibition of ATP synthesis is reversed by uncouplers in the mutants but not in the wild type. The data support the existence of a specific site on the ATPase complex for uncoupler binding which, if altered by mutation, affects uncoupler binding to the complex. The retention of malate-driven ATP synthesis in the absence of a significant pH gradient or electrical potential suggests that an alternative intermediate is involved in coupling oxidation to phosphorylation.

Transport activity of the hog gastric (H+ + K+)-ATPase system was measured either as the formation of proton gradient using the dye probe acridine orange or as the formation of a proton diffusion potential using the cyanine dye 3,3'-diethyloxdicarbocyanine iodide in the presence of the protonophore tetrachlorosalicylanilide. The development of these gradients has been compared in K+ media in the presence of either Cl- or SO4-2 as the anionic species. This comparison of proton diffusion potential formation to proton gradient formation has been used to demonstrate that a Cl- conductance in this vesicular system results from limited enzymic digestion with either trypsin or alpha-chymotrypsin from the ageing process itself. The possible significance of this finding is discussed.

1. The cell-membrane ATP phosphohydrolase of vegetatively grown Clostridium pasteurianum was specifically Mg2+-dependent, but demonstrated significant activity with GTP, CTP and UTP. It displayed approximate Michaelis-Menten kinetics only in the presence of certain effectors (e.g. phosphoenolpyruvate, fructose 1,6-bis-phosphate) which decreased the Km for ATP (to below 2 mM) but also V, whilst extending to pH 5.8 the effective pH range of activity of the enzyme. 2. ATP phosphohydrolase activity of the membrane ATPase (BF0F1) was inhibited by N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, butyricin 7423, Dio-9, 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzofurazan, efrapeptin, leucinostatin and quercetin, and to a lesser degree by aurovertin and citreoviridin. The enzyme was not inhibited by oligomycin, spegazzinine, tributyl tin, triethyl tin or venturicidin. The soluble ATPase (BF1) component differed in not being inhibited by N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, butyricin 7423 or leucinostatin. 3. The ATPase (BF0F1) complex and its soluble (BF1) component were separately purified. 4. Dodecylsulphate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis separated only four polypeptide components in the purified ATPase (BF0F1), with approximate molecular weights (+/- 10%) as follows: subunit a, 65 500; subunit c, 57 500; subunit da, 43 000; subunit fa, 15 000. The soluble (BF1 component contained only the three polypeptide subunits a, c and da. These were present in the BF0F1 preparation in the ratio 2 : 1 : 2; the contribution of subunit fa could not satisfactorily be quantified. 5. Subunit a was identified as the component binding 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzofurazan and subunit fa as the component binding N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. The ATP phosphohydrolase activity of the membrane ATPase was not activated by trypsin treatment and the ATPase (BF0F1) contained no trypsin-sensitive inhibitor protein subunit. 6. Purified ATPase (BF0F1) was incorporated into artificial proteoliposomes which demonstrated ATP-dependent enhancement of 8-anilinonaphthalene-1-sulphonate fluorescence and ATP-dependent proton influx. These reactions were abolished by proton conductors (e.g. carbonylcyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone) by valinomycin in the presence of a high external concentration of K+, or by N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, butyricin 7423, Dio-9, 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzofurazan or leucinostatin. Oligomycin, tributyl tin, triethyl tin and venturicidin were not inhibitory. 7. When stripped of the soluble BF1 component, such ATPase-proteoliposomes demonstrated nil ATP phosphohydrolase activity and did not display ATP-dependent enhancement of 8-anilino-naphthalene-1-sulphonate fluorescence or ATP-dependent protein influx. All of these activities were restored by incubation of the BF1-depleted proteoliposomes with a purified preparation of the soluble BF1 component.

It is known that the negatively stained preparations of inner mitochondrial membrane display characteristic approximately 9 nm F1 (ATPase) knobs projecting from the matrix surface. Freeze-etch studies have reported the absence of such knobs from the "etched" surface of the inner mitochondrial membranes. We have demonstrated their presence on the surface of SMP (submitochondrial particles) prepared by freeze-drying for transmission electron microscopy. This identification has been substantiated by comparison with freeze-dried TU particles (trypsin-urea treated SMP) that are devoid of F1 (ATPase). It has been suggested that a layer of water molecules is strongly adsorbed to the surface of SMP and does not sublime during normal freeze-"etching."

The properties of a (Na+ plus K+)-dependent ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) activator contained in leukocytic extracts was investigated. Intact polymorphonuclear leukocytes release the activator in a time- and temperature-dependent process. It is non-dialyzable through cellophane; inactivated by protease, trypsin, or phenol; contains essential sulfhydryl groups; and is heat and acid labile. Treatment of ATPase with the activator and subsequent removable of the activator from mixtures did not reverse the ATPase activation.

1. Prolonged treatment of coupling factor I (CF1) from spinach chloroplasts with trypsin free of chymotrypsin yielded an active ATPase. The isolated preparation showed only two polypeptide chains (mol wt 55,000 to 60,000) on acrylamide gels run in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. The three smaller subunits of CF1 were not detectable. The preparation no longer served as a coupling factor for photophosphorylation in either EDTA- or silicotungstate-treated chloroplasts. 2. An antiserum prepared against coupling factor I from chloroplasts inhibited the ATPase activity of the trypsin-treated CF1. In contrast, antisera prepared against the two individual (denatured) subunits did not inhibit the ATPase activity when tested either alone or together, although each interacted with the trypsin-treated protein, forming precipitin lines in Ouchterlony plates. 3. The trypsin-treated enzyme was still cold-labile, showing that the three smaller subunits are not required for this property. However, the enzyme was no longer sensitive to the natural inhibitor protein which is one of its subunits (subunit epislon), but was still sensitive to inhibition by the flavonoid quercetin. 4. Two equivalents of 7-chloro-4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole were sufficient to inhibit about 80% of the ATPase activity of the coupling factor, irrespective of whether it contained two of five subunits. The inhibition was completely reversed by dithiothreitol. 5. Triated 7-chloro-4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole was prepared. Treatment of the coupling factor with this tritium-labeled inhibitor followed by electrophoresis on acrylamide gels revealed that most of the radioactivity was incorporated into the beta subunit of the enzyme (molecular weight 56,000).
