Studies into the activity of adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) in homogenates of liver, cerebral cortex, renal cortex, and mucosa of small intestine of swine have shown differentiated activity patterns, with peak activity developing in the liver. This has been related to a particularly high metabolism performance of the liver in fattening pigs. No difference was found to exist between magnesium activation of ATPase of swine tissue homogenates and that in tissue obtained from ruminants. ATPase which could be activated by sodium and potassium ions and inhibited by ouabain was detectable from cerebral and renal cortex. Sodium and potassium ATPases accounts from some 25 per cent of the total activity. ATPase that could be stimulated by calcium ions was recorded only from liver homogenate. The optimum pH values of ATPase were between 7.5 and 8 in the liver, 9 in mucosa of small intestine, and 9.5 in cerebral and renal cortex.

Sodium and potassium ion-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase ((Na+ + K+)-ATPase) was partially purified from canine brain gray matter and reconstituted into vesicles of phosphatidylcholine. A proportion of the enzyme molecules was reconstituted into sealed vesicles with the ATP-hydrolyzing site facing the outside of the vesicles. ATP was added to the outside of the vesicles after they had equilibrated with radioactive tracer, and the resulting active transport of Na+ and K+ was followed. Unlike the purified kidney renal medulla enzyme used in an earlier study, the brain enzyme transports both Na+ and K+(Rb+). Vesicles were made in solutions with different proportions of NaCl and KCl, and over the range studied, an average of 1.8 Rb+ ions were transported for every 3 Na+ ions. When ATP is depleted, the transported ions diffuse back to their equilibrium level in the vesicles.

Sodium and potassium adenosine triphosphatase ((Na + K)-ATPase) consists of two polypeptides, a large molecular weight polypeptide (MW 84,000 to 102,000) and a sialoglycoprotein (MW 35,000 to 57,000). Trypsin treatment of this complex selectively cleaves the large polypeptide into two fragments with molecular weights of 62,000 and 43,000. Simultaneously with the appearance of these fragments, (Na + K)-APTase activity is destroyed. Trypsin treatment of phosphorylated enzyme shows that he 43,000 molecular weight fragment is phosphorylated. If (Na + K)-ATPase is digested with trypsin in the presence of ATP, a 90,000 molecular weight fragment is produced. Disappearance of the large polypeptide, and loss of ATPase activity parallel the production of this fragment. Addition of strophanthidin to this mixture significantly lowers the amount of the 90,000 molecular weight fragment produced. Experiments on (Na + K)-ATPase of the red cell membrane suggest that trypsin is cleaving (Na + K)-ATPase at the interior surface of the plasma membrane.

Sodium-potassium-activated adenosine triphosphatase (Na-K-ATPase) is associated with electrolyte transport in many tissues. To help delineate its role in intestinal transport, changes in rat intestinal electrolyte and water transport induced by injecting methylprednisolone acetate 3 mg/100 g or deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA) 0.5 mg/100 g per day for 3 days were correlated with changes in Na-K-ATPase activity. Methylprednisolone increased sodium and water absorption, potassium secretion, transmural potential difference, and Na-K-ATPase activity in the jejunum, ileum, and colon. Examination of isolated epithelial cells demonstrated that the jejunal and ileal increase in Na-K-ATPase occurred in both the villus tip and crypermeability, Mg-ATPase, and adenylate cyclase activities were unchanged by methylprednisolone. DOCA increased sodium and water absorption, potassium secretion, transmural potential difference, and Na-K-ATPase activity in the colon alone. Colonic Mg-ATPase and adenylate cyclase activities were unaffected. Jejunal and ileal enzyme activity, electrolyte transport, and permeability were unchanged by DOCA. Methylprednisolone and DOCA were not additive in their effect on colonic Na-K-ATPase activity. Methylprednisolone and DOCA increased electrolyte and water transport and Na-K-ATPase activity concomitantly in specific segments of small intestine and colon. These data are consistent with an important role for Na-K-ATPase in intestinal electrolyte and water transport.

Sodium and potassium ion-activated adenosine triphosphatase is the enzyme responsible for the active transport of sodium and potassium across the plasma membrane. Strophanthidin, from the external surface of the membrane, and an antibody, from the cytoplasmic surface, bind simultaneously to the large polypeptide subunit of the enzyme. These results demonstrate that this polypeptide chain must span the plasma membrane, having different surfaces exposed on each side. When (Na+ + K+)-ATPase is incubated in the presence of cupric phenanthroline, a reagent which catalyzes the oxidation of cysteine residues to form intermolecular and intramolecular disulfide bonds, a covalent dimer of the larger chains is formed. Several characteristics of this dimerization reaction are consistent with the proposal that at least a noncovalent dimer of large chains exists in the native enzyme. These conclusions are discussed in the context of a specific description for the molecular mechanism of active transport.

Sodium- and potassium-activated adenosine triphosphatase (NaK-ATPase) was purified from nasal salt glands of the duck (Anas platyrhynchos). Enzyme of specific activity 2,000 to 2,300 mumol of Pi/mg/hour was routinely obtained by sodium dodecyl sulfate treatment of a microsomal fraction of gland homogenate in the presence of 3 mM ATP followed by pelleting of the enzyme through a sucrose density gradient. Purified NaK-ATPase was stable for over 3 months at -20 degree. By sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and gel filtration chromatography purified NaK-ATPase was shown to contain two polypeptide chains of molecular weight 94,000 and 60,000, the smaller of which was a glycoprotein. Purified enzyme of activity 2,300 mumol of Pi/mg/hour bound 3,600 pmol of ouabain/mg of enzyme protein. Reaction with [gamma-32P]ATP in the presence of Mg2+ and Na+ gave 7,025 pmol of acyl phosphate/mg of enzyme protein. The turnover number calculated from phosphorylation data was 5,460 min-1. Amino acid analysis of the polypeptide components of duck salt gland enzyme after separation by gel filtration chromatography in sodium dodecyl sulfate demonstrated strong compositional homology with highly purified NaK-ATPase preparations from other organs and species. The NH2-terminal amino acid of the 94,000-dalton component was glycine and of the 60,000-dalton component, alanine. With a combination of manual sequencing and automated Edman degradation, the NH2-terminal amino acid sequence of the 94,00-dalton catalytic subunit was found to be Gly-Arg-Asn-Lys-Tyr-Glu-Thr-Thr-Ala-()-Ser-Glu.

An initial examination was made of the hypothesis that one action of cigarette smoke components on pulmonary alveolar macrophage function involves the inhibition of contractile protein adenosine triphosphatase activity. Pulmonary alveolar macrophage calcium-dependent adenosine triphosphatase activity, magnesium-dependent adenosine triphosphatase activity, sodium-potassium-dependent adenosine triphosphatase activity, phagocytosis, and cell adhesiveness were measured in the presence of cigarette smoke, acrolein, ouabain, and ethacrynic acid. Calcium-dependent adenosine triphosphatase activity, magnesium-dependent adenosine triphosphatase activity, phagocytosis, and adhesiveness were inhibited by smoke and ethacrynic acid, but not by ouabain. Acrolein, a component of smoke, inhibited phagocytosis, adhesiveness, and calcium-dependent adenosine triphosphatase activity, indicating that another component of smoke must be effective at inhibiting magnesium-dependent adenosine triphosphatase activity. Sodium-potassium-dependent adenosine triphosphatase activity was inhibited by ouabain and ethacrynic acid, but not by smoke or acrolein. Finally, sulfhydryl reagents at least partially protected the macrophages against the inhibitory actions of each of the agents. The results are in accord with recently obtained experimental evidence that calcium-dependent adenosine triphosphatase and, perhaps, magnesium-dependent adenosine triphosphatase play a role in phagocytosis. The data also suggest that smoke components affect a number of macrophage activities, including adhesion and phagocytosis, by altering the cell's contractile apparatus.

Sodium- and potassium-dependent adenosine triphosphatase (Na+--K+-ATPase) has been demonstrated in the branchial heart appendage (pericardial gland) of Sepia officinalis L. by biochemical, cytochemical and autoradiographical methods. The biochemical data indicate the presence of Na+--K+-ATPase, judging from the potassium dependency and, with some restrictions, the inhibition by ouabain. Cytochemically and autoradiographically, the enzyme could be localized on the cytoplasmic surfaces of the lateral plasma membranes and the basal membrane infoldings (basal labyrinth) of the folded epithelium of the branchial heart appendage. The pdocytes of the peripheral zone of the organ reacted negatively. In addition to the Na+--K+-ATPase, a magnesium-activated adenosine triphosphatase (Mg2+-ATPase) was demonstrated in the folded epithelium, localized mainly in the mitochondria but also at the brush border and in the apical intercellular space, whereas a bicarbonate-stimulated ATPase (HCO-3-ATPase) was present only in the mitochondria.

The effects of norepinephrine in interaction with adrenergic blocking compounds were studied on membrane adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activities of human lymphocytes and lymphoblasts. Sodium-potassium ion exchange pump activity was assayed by 86-Rb uptake and ATPase activity of membrane fractions was assayed by ADP and inorganic phosphate generation. The results of these studies indicate that norepinephrine acts by an alpha adrenergic mechanism to enhance membrane sodium-potassium ion exchange pump activity and ATPase activity. The pharmacologic and ionic dissection of the adrenergic sensitivity of ATPase activity indicates that this alpha adrenergic mechanism is related to membrane ATPase activities in addition to that associated with the ion exchange pump. Analysis of fractions obtained by sucrose gradients indicates that the action of norepinephrine is localized in the plasma membrane. Beta adrenergic stimulation was observed to inhibit ATPase activity. The complexity of adrenergic effects on membrane ATPase suggests interactions of hormone modulation of membrane nucleotide cyclases and transport-related ATPase enzymes.

Sodium-potassium adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) enzyme was determined in the brain tissue of 11 patients with head injury and 6 control patients. Patients with head injury included in this study were selected from two categories: (a) patients in deep coma due to severe head injury [Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) less than 8; 6 cases]; (b) patients with depressed skull fractures with dural tears who were conscious and able to give an adequate verbal response (GCS greater than 10; 5 cases). The level of the enzyme was significantly reduced in comatose patients with severe head injury as compared to the controls (P less than 0.001) or to conscious patients with depressed fractures (P less than 0.001). In the group of conscious patients with depressed fractures, the enzyme level was no different from that of the controls (P = 0.4215). All comatose patients with severely reduced enzyme levels subsequently died, whereas those with depressed fractures with normal enzyme levels survived. The relationship between a low enzyme level and brain edema in severe head injury is discussed.
