A mouse L-cell line, designated 111-OB3, is described which is resistant to two drugs, chloramphenicol and oligomycin. The cells contain two types of mitochondrial DNA molecules, in roughly equal proportions, which differ in that one is cleaved by endonuclease EcoRI at a novel site within the coding sequence for subunit 6 of the mitochondrial ATPase (ATPase-6). Sequence analysis reveals that the cleavage site was created by a single transversion which predicts a replacement of valine in the wild-type ATPase-6 by glutamic acid. The replacement occurs in a hydrophobic amino acid sequence which is highly conserved in mouse, human, and bovine proteins. The position of the replacement is similar to a substitution observed in one class of yeast mutants resistant to oligomycin. Both of the mitochondrial DNA molecules in 111-OB3 also have a single nucleotide change in the gene encoding the large (16S) rRNA. These observations are consistent with the hypothesis that oligomycin resistance in mammalian cells can be cytoplasmically determined and can result from alterations in ATPase-6. The appearance of the mutation before selection in oligomycin suggests a model for the origin of mitochondrial mutations in mammalian cells.

The subunit stoichiometry of oligomeric enzymes can be determined by immuno-electron microscopy using monoclonal antibodies against the individual subunits. Monoclonal antibodies against native F1-ATPase of Escherichia coli were prepared that were specific for the alpha-subunit. The immune complexes of F1 and monoclonal antibodies were isolated. Electron microscopy revealed the presence of three immunoglobulins per molecule of F1-ATPase. This unequivocally demonstrates an alpha 3 stoichiometry for the F1-ATPase of E. coli.

This review concerns the catalytic sector of F1 factor of the H+-dependent ATPases in mitochondria (MF1), bacteria (BF1) and chloroplasts (CF1). The three types of F1 have many similarities with respect to the structural parameters, subunit composition and catalytic mechanism. An alpha 3 beta 3 gamma delta epsilon stoichiometry is now accepted for MF1 and BF1; the alpha 2 beta 2 gamma 2 delta 2 epsilon 2 stoichiometry for CF1 remains as matter of debate. The major subunits alpha, beta and gamma are equivalent in MF1, BF1 and CF1; this is not the case for the minor subunits delta and epsilon. The delta subunit of MF1 corresponds to the epsilon subunit of BF1 and CF1, whereas the mitochondrial subunit equivalent to the delta subunit of BF1 and CF1 is probably the oligomycin sensitivity conferring protein (OSCP). The alpha beta gamma assembly is endowed with ATPase activity, beta being considered as the catalytic subunit and gamma as a proton gate. On the other hand, the delta and epsilon subunits of BF1 and CF1 most probably act as links between the F1 and F0 sectors of the ATPase complex. The natural mitochondrial ATPase inhibitor, which is a separate protein loosely attached to MF1, could have its counterpart in the epsilon subunit of BF1 and CF1. The generally accepted view that the catalytic subunit in the different F1 species is beta comes from a number of approaches, including chemical modification, specific photolabeling and, in the case of BF1, use of mutants. The alpha subunit also plays a central role in catalysis, since structural alteration of alpha by chemical modification or mutation results in loss of activity of the whole molecule of F1. The notion that the proton motive force generated by respiration is required for conformational changes of the F1 sector of the H+-ATPase complex has gained acceptance. During the course of ATP synthesis, conversion of bound ADP and Pi into bound ATP probably requires little energy input; only the release of the F1-bound ATP would consume energy. ADP and Pi most likely bind at one catalytic site of F1, while ATP is released at another site. This mechanism, which underlines the alternating cooperativity of subunits in F1, is supported by kinetic data and also by the demonstration of partial site reactivity in inactivation experiments performed with selective chemical modifiers. One obvious advantage of the alternating site mechanism is that the released ATP cannot bind to its original site.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

The properties of a new type of oligomycin-resistant Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell line (Olir 2.2) are described in this paper. Olir 2.2 cells were approximately 50,000-fold more resistant to oligomycin than were wild-type CHO cells when tested in glucose-containing medium, but only 10- to 100-fold more resistant when tested in galactose-containing medium. Olir 2.2 cells grew with a doubling time similar to that of wild-type cells both in the presence or absence of oligomycin. Oligomycin resistance in Olir 2.2 cells was stable in the absence of drug. In vitro assays indicated that there was approximately a 25-fold increase in the resistance of the mitochondrial ATPase to inhibition by oligomycin in Olir 2.2 cells, with little change in the total ATPase activity. The electron transport chain was shown to be functional in Olir 2.2 cells. Olir 2.2 cells were cross-resistant to other inhibitors of the mitochondrial ATPase (such as rutamycin, ossamycin, peliomycin, venturicidin, leucinostatin, and efrapeptin) and to other inhibitors of mitochondrial functions (such as chloramphenicol, rotenone, and antimycin). Oligomycin resistance was expressed codominantly in hybrids between Olir 2.2 cells and wild-type cells. Cross-resistance to ossamycin, peliomycin, chloramphenicol, antimycin, venturicidin, leucinostatin, and efrapeptin was also expressed codominantly in hybrids. Fusions of enucleated Olir 2.2 cells with wild-type cells and characterization of the resulting cybrid clones indicated that resistance to oligomycin and ossamycin results from a mutation in both a nuclear gene and a cytoplasmic gene. Cross-resistance to efrapeptin, leucinostatin, venturicidin, and antimycin results from a mutation in only a nuclear gene.

The nucleotide sequence has been determined of a 2,500 base pair segment of the E. coli chromosome located between 3.75 and 6.25 kb counterclockwise of the origin of replication at 83.5 min. The sequence contains the atp genes coding for subunits a-, b-, c-, delta- and part of the alpha-subunit of the membrane bound ATP synthase. The precise start positions of the atpE (c), atpF (b), atpH (delta) and atpA (alpha) genes have been defined by comparison of the potential coding sequences with the known amino acid sequence of the c-subunit and the determined N-terminal amino acid sequences of the respective subunits. The genes are expressed in the counterclockwise direction. Their order (counterclockwise) is: atpB (a), atpE (c), atpF (b), atpH (delta) and atpA(alpha). The coding sequences for subunits b and delta yield polypeptides of 156 and 177 amino acids, respectively, in accordance with the established sizes of these subunits; the one for the c-subunit, the DCCD binding protein, fits perfectly with its known sequence of 79 amino acids. The a-subunit is comprised within a coding sequence yielding a polypeptide of 271 amino acids. It is suggested, however, that the a-subunit (atpB) contains only 201 amino acids, in accordance with its known size, starting from a translation initiation site within the larger coding sequence. The stoichiometry of the F0 sector subunits is discussed and a model is proposed for the functioning of the highly charged b-subunit of the F0 sector as the actual proton conductor.

The nucleotide sequence has been determined of a 900 bp segment of chromosomal DNA located between 2.6 and 3.5 kb left of the origin of replication, oriC. This segment, which overlaps with the known sequence of the atp operon coding for the eight subunits of the Escherichia coli K12 ATP synthase, contains two coding sequences with the same polarity (counterclockwise) as the atp genes: One of these, designated atpI, which codes for the N-terminal part of a 14 kD polypeptide, is located in front (upstream) of the atpB gene (the first structural gene in the atp operon), the other one codes for the C-terminal part of the gidB gene. The 606 bp segment located between the gidB and the atpI genes contains no coding sequences. By employing the nuclease S1 mapping technique, we have determined a promoter, designated atpIp, for the atp operon located in front of the atpI gene; two additional, weak transcription starts were located within the atpI gene. No transcription start sites were detected up to 1,000 bp upstream of the atpIp promoter, neither were any transcription start sites detected within the cluster of the eight structural atp genes. The atp operon transcription terminates at a site approximately 50 bp downstream from the atpC gene.

The mitochondrial ATPase from oligomycin-resistant mutants which map on different regions of an extrachromosomal DNA (01 and 011 class mutants) showed an increased resistance to oligomycin and venturicidin when assayed in vitro as compared to the sensitive strains. The resistance to oligomycin of the isolated mitochondrial ATPase from 01 class mutants was higher than that of the 011 class mutants. Cross resistance of the oligomycin-resistant mutants to the antibiotics peliomycin and ossamycin, which also inhibit phosphoryl transfer reactions in mitochondria (Walter et al., 1967), was observed, 01 mutants being more resistant to ossamycin than 011 class mutants. At the concentrations of peliomycin studied, no difference in sensitivity among both groups of oligomycin-resistant mutants could be detected. Mitochondrial respiration and isolated mitochondrial ATPase activity are sensitive to venturicidin, suggesting that the previously observed (Brunner et al., 1977) in vivo venturicidin resistance of K. lactis is probably due to an impairment of the influx of the drug at the level of the plasma membrane.

The mitochondrial adenosine triphosphatase of the kinetoplastid protozoon, Crithidia fasciculata, is inhibited by oligomycin, venturicidin, triethyltin sulphate, N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, leucinostatin, Dio-9 and quercetin, but not spegazzinine or by compounds which interact with the beta-subunit of mitochondrial F1-ATPase (efrapeptin, aurovertin, citreoviridin or 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzofurazan). These results suggest that the F1 portion of the crithidial enzyme has an unusual type of beta-subunit. Further evidence for the atypical nature of this enzyme is provided by the observation that F1-inhibitor proteins from Acanthamoeba castellanii or bovine heart mitochondria do not inhibit the C. fasciculata enzyme activity.

Steady-state velocity studies using a substrate regenerating system showed that efrapeptin, citreoviridin and aurovertin inhibit both membrane-bound and soluble mitochondrial ATPase (coupling factor F1) from Trypanosoma cruzi. Maximal inhibitions of ATP hydrolysis produced by efrapeptin and citreoviridin were 100-93%, while the maximal inhibition produced by aurovertin was 40%. Half-maximal inhibitory concentrations decreased in the order citreoviridin greater than aurovertin greater than efrapeptin. Dissociation constants (KD) for the inhibitor-F1 complex were 81 nM (efrapeptin), 6.6 muM (aurovertin) and 40 muM (citreoviridin); KD values for the membrane-bound F1 were 2-4 fold higher than for soluble F1. Representation of efrapeptin inhibition data in the Hill form yielded straight lines (n = 1) while the same representation of citreoviridin inhibition yielded concave down plots. In contrast to the immediate effect of citreoviridin and aurovertin, efrapeptin inhibition was time-dependent. The onset of inhibition, which was pseudo-first-order with respect to efrapeptin, indicated that ATP may promote the binding of efrapeptin to the enzyme. The kinetics of ATP hydrolysis by T. cruzi ATPase as a function MgATP concentration could be explained by the presence of two substrate sites on the enzyme, interacting in such a way that the binding and catalytic events at one site were conformationally linked to the events at the other site, as with the mammalian ATPase. When the antibiotics were assayed at increasing substrate concentrations, efrapeptin produced a linear, mixed-type inhibition whereas citreoviridin produced a parabolic noncompetitive-type inhibition. The aurovertin effect was unusual since the extent of inhibition was greater at high substrate concentrations. Maximal concentrations of all the assayed antibiotics linearized the biphasic double reciprocal plot of control ATPase activity. Comparison of T. cruzi and mammalian F1 responses to the assayed antibiotics revealed the operation of similar inhibition mechanisms but the T. cruzi enzyme was significantly less sensitive to inhibitors than its mammalian counterpart.

The genes for the eight subunits of the membrane bound ATP synthase of Escherichia coli (Ca++, Mg++ dependent ATPase, EC 3.6.1.3) were mapped through genetic, physical and functional analysis of specialized transducing phages lambda asn (von Meyenburg et al. 1978). The ATP synthase genes, designated atp1, are located at 83.2 min in a segment of the chromosome between 3.5 and 11.3 kb left (counterclockwise) of the origin of replication oriC. The counterclockwise order of the genes for the eight subunits, the expression of which starts from a control region at 3.5 kb-L, was found to be: a, (c, b, delta), alpha, gamma, (epsilon, beta) which in the notation of Downie el al. (1981) reads atp B (EFH) A G (C D). The analysis was in part based on the isolation of new types of atp (unc, Suc-) mutations. We made use of the fact that specialized transducing phages lambda asn carrying oriC can establish themselves as minichromosomes rendering asnA cells Asn+, and that the resulting Asn+ cells grow slowly if the lambda asn carries part or all of the atp operon. Selecting for fast growing strains mutations were isolated on the lambda asn which either eliminated atp genes or affected their expression ("promoter" mutations). The relationship between these atp mutations and the cop mutations of Ogura et al. (1980), which also appear to map in front of or within the atp genes, is discussed.
