Rat liver lysosomes were lysed and subfractionated by differential centrifugation through 0.2M-NaCl to yield a membranous pellet. This membrane fraction contains less than 20% of the lysosomal protein, adenosine triphosphatase activity of about 1.2mumol/min per mg of protein, 120nmol of thiol groups/mg of protein and at least 16 protein and glycoprotein bands on sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. The gel patterns of membranes isolated from lysosomes after treatment with (1) [125I]iodidehydrogen peroxide-lactoperoxidase, (2) toluene 2,4-di-isocyanate-activated bovine serum albumin, (3) trypsin and (4) subtilisin indicate that most of the membrane proteins are exposed to the cytoplasm. These exposed proteins are candidates for intracellular receptors which recognize either substances that are to be degraded or vesicles containing those substances.

1. The action of trypsin, chymotrypsin and subtilisin on the adenosine-triphosphatase and actin-combining activities, as measured by viscometric means, of H-meromyosin were compared. 2. Subfragment 1 produced by prolonged tryptic digestion has a molecular weight of 129000. 3. The preparations isolated by gel filtration and actin combination were shown to be similar. 4. Subfragment-1 preparations possess appreciably higher adenosine-triphosphatase activities than H-meromyosin when related to total nitrogen. 5. Chromatographic and gelfiltration studies indicated that adenosine-triphosphatase activity is not distributed uniformly in all fractions of subfragment 1. 6. The Ca(2+)-activated adenosine triphosphatase of subfragment 1 was stimulated by thiol reagents in a similar fashion to myosin and H-meromyosin. 7. Subfragment 1 differed from myosin and H-meromyosin in that its adenosine triphosphatase was only slightly activated by Mg(2+) in the presence of actin. 8. A subfragment-1-like component was obtained by chymotryptic digestion of H-meromyosin. 9. The results obtained from enzymic and hydrodynamic studies and from amino acid analyses are compatible with the concept of one molecule of H-meromyosin giving rise to one molecule of subfragment 1 on proteolytic digestion.

Kinesin is a mechanoenzyme that couples adenosine triphosphate hydrolysis to the generation of force and movement along microtubules. To gain insight into the interactions of kinesin and microtubules, cross-linking, mapping, and proteolysis experiments were executed. The motor domain of kinesin was consistently cross-linked to both alpha- and beta-tubulin subunits. Initial mapping of the cross-linked kinesin suggested that amino acids within the N- and C-terminal cyanogen bromide fragments of the motor domain formed cross-links to both alpha- and beta-tubulin subunits. Mapping of the cross-linked tubulin suggested that cross-linking to kinesin motors occurred within the negatively charged, C-terminal cyanogen bromide fragments of alpha- and beta-tubulin subunits. Treatment of microtubules with subtilisin, a protease that cleaves C-terminal fragments from alpha- and beta-tubulin, reduced their ability to be cross-linked to kinesin motors supporting the idea that C-terminal sequences of alpha- and beta-tubulin may interact with kinesin motors. Finally, of three synthetic peptides, a peptide consisting of the last 12 C-terminal amino acids of beta-tubulin competitively interfered with the microtubule-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase activity of the kinesin motor, further suggesting that C-terminal sequences of beta-tubulin may be involved in kinesin binding.
