1. The activities of some membrane-bound enzymes such as adenylate cyclase, Na+ + K+-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase (Na+ + K+-ATPase), Ca2+-stimulated ATPase and Mg2+-stimulated ATPase were examined in heart sarcolemmal fractions from control and cardiomyopathic hamsters at different stages of heart failure. 2. The basal adenylate cyclase activity in sarcolemma from cardiomyopathic animals with early, moderate and late stages of heart failure was not different from the control values whereas the sodium fluoride- and catecholamine-stimulated adenylate cyclase activities were depressed in cardiomyopathic sarcolemma at moderate and late stages. 3. The sarcolemmal Na+ + K+-ATPase activity was decreased and the non-specific phosphatase activity was increased at early, moderate and late stages of heart failure. 4. The sarcolemmal Ca2+-ATPase activity was decreased at moderate and late stages whereas the Mg2+-ATPase activity was decreased at the late stages of heart failure only. 5. A marked decrease was found in calcium binding by heart sarcolemma from cardiomyopathic hamsters at late stages of failure. 6. These results suggest that dramatic sarcolemmal changes are associated with heart failure, and support the view that membrane abnormalities play a crucial role in the development of myocardial dysfunction, cyclase, calcium binding, heart failure, heart membranes, sarcolemmal enzymes.

In order to differentiate whether activation of NaK-ATPase in thyroid thermogenesis is due to increased numbers of active 'sodium pump' units or due to a change in the kinetics of the enzyme, the effect of T3 on activation energy (Ea) of NaK-ATPase was determined in rat liver, kidney and brain. Injection of T3 produced significant increases in the specific activity of NaK-ATPase in liver and kidney but not in brain homogenates. T3 injections produced no significant change in the Ea of NaK-ATPase in any of the three tissues. The data are compatible with the hypothesis that thyroid stimulation of the sodium pump is brought about by an increase in the number of active pump units.

Some physiological properties of a multiple-drug-resistant mutant with a permeability barrier to chloramphenicol and its isogenic parental strain were compared. The ATPase specific activity of plasma and mitochondrial membranes isolated from the mutant strain was approximately 20% lower (P less than 0.001, Tables 1 and 2) than that of membranes isolated from the isogenic parental strain. Additional evidence of altered mitochondrial function was: (i) the enhanced growth of the parental strain was eliminted by the [rho-] state (Table 3); (ii) the mutant strain had a greater resistance to petite induction by ethidium bromide (Table 4); (iii) the mutant strain was unable to use a nonfermentable energy source for respiratory adaptation (Table 5). It is proposed that a single gene mutation has resulted in an alteration of some physiological properties of the plasma and mitochondrial membranes.

1. Homogenates of guinea-pig left ventricle were fractionated by differential pelleting and by centrifugation on continuous sucrose density gradients. 2. The principal subcellular organelles of myocardium, characterized by their marker enzyme content, were resolved by density gradient centrifugation in a small-volume zonal rotor. The equilibrium densities (p) of the principal organelles are (with marker enzymes in parentheses): sarcolemma, 1-12 (5'-nucleotidase); lysosomes, 1-16 (N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase); mitochondria, 1-17 (cytochrome oxidase); peroxisomes, 1-18 (catalase); cytosol (lactate dehydrogenase). 3. The subcellular distribution of various adenosine triphosphatase activities and previously unassigned enzymes was determined. Leucyl-beta-naphthylamidase and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase showed both cytosol and sarcolemma components. Ca2+-dependent adenosine triphosphatase showed dual localization to the mitochondria and to the sarcolemma.

Bound and solubilized ATPase from Escherichia coli show similar kinetic properties. The saturation curves for MgATP are hyperbolic with both preparations. The straight lines in the Line-weaver-Burk plot indicate that MgATP is the true substrate, that one molecule MgATP is bound per enzyme molecule, and that there is no cooperativity. Presence of EDTA leads to sigmoidal saturation curves. This effect could be reversed by adding MgCl2 stoichiometrically to EDTA. Different results in other publications, especially in that of CARREIRA and MUNOZ1 can be explained as being primarily the consequence of complexing agent contaminations in the assay.

The Arrhenius plots for the active and low activity soluble forms of the ATPase purified from the membranes of Micrococcus lysodeikticus grown at 30 degrees C presented discontinuities at 30 and 33 degrees C, respectively. Their activation parameters differed, being highest for the low activity form of the enzyme. Both forms underwent changes in their molecular properties as a consequence of being enzymically active, i.e., upon incubation with substrates at an adequate temperature. These changes consisted of a decrease in the relative mobilities of some of their subunits in dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and the temperature at which they occurred depended on the energy of activation of the particular form of the ATPase used. The low activity form required an incubation temperature of 50 degrees C, whereas for an active form 37 degrees C was sufficient.

1. Serum was collected from normal rats and from rats volume-expanded with isotonic sodium chloride solution. 2. The serum was fractionated by gel filtration on Sephadex G-25 and each fraction was tested for inhibitory activity against sodium-potassium-activated adenosine triphosphatase prepared from rat kidney homogenate. 3. A single low-molecular-weight fraction, eluting after the salts and after exogenously added lysine-vasopressin, had significantly greater enzyme inhibitory activity when obtained from serum of volume-expanded animals than from control serum. 4. As this fraction has been shown in previous independent studies to contain a natriuretic factor, it may be concluded that one property of this factor is the ability to inhibit sodium-potassium-activated adenosine triphosphatase.

The extranuclear mitochondrial oligomycin-resistant mutation of Aspergillus nidulans, (oliA1), was transferred asexually into four nuclear oligomycin-resistant strains of different phenotypes. In all four cases, the possession of the nuclear plus extranuclear mutation led to an increase in the in vivo level of oligomycin resistance. In two cases, the altered cytochrome spectrum and impaired growth ability determined by (oliA1) were suppressed by the nuclear mutations. In the third case, the in vitro oligomycin resistance of the double mutant ATPase was dramatically increased above that of either of the component single mutant strains, indicating a synergystic interaction between the nuclear and extranuclear gene products. In the fourth case, the double mutant became cold-sensitive. A new extranuclear mitochondrial oligomycin-resistant mutation (oliB332) is described. This mutant is phenotypically similar to, though not identical with, (oliA1) but is separable by recombination. A range of nuclear oligomycin-resistant mutants have been mapped. Despite presenting five distinctly different phenotypes, they all map at the same locus.

The effects of diamide were studied in rat kidney cortical tissue. It was found that diamide increased oxidized glutathione levels and inhibited Na+-K+-ATPase activity. Consistent with this finding was the observation that diamide compromised the sodium gradients maintained in renal cortical slices. Amino acid transport studies with ouabain or a sodium-free buffer indicated that diamide interferes with both Na+-dependent and Na+-independent transport systems. These results indicate that diamide has a number of different effects on renal cortical tissue and emphasize the important role of glutathione in maintaining control of a number of key metabolic pathways.

Soluble, oligomycin-insensitive ATPase released from beef heart mitchondria by chloroform extraction can be further purified by Sepharose 6B gel filtration. This purification increases enzyme activity 4--5 times (100-130U/mg). According to specific activity, high purity and ability to reconstitute oligomycin-sensitive complex, isolated ATPase is quite comparable with enzyme preparations isolated by other methods.
