A series of group specific reagents has been examined for their ability to inactivate Micrococcus lysodeikticus adenosine triphosphatase assayed with Mg2+ as activating divalent cation. The enzyme activity was not inhibited by sulphydryl, carboxyl, histidine, arginine and methionine specific reagents at inhibitor concentrations below 2 mM. However, the ATPase was inactivated by its chemical reaction with either one molecule of trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid or tetranitromethane, or two to four molecules of N-bromosuccinimide. These results suggest that at least one amino group, one tyrosine and two to four tryptophans are involved in the Mg2+-dependent binding or hydrolysis of ATP.

1. Arrhenius plots of the glucagon-stimulated adenylate cyclase, 5'-nucleotidase, (Na+ + K+)-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase and Mg2+-dependent adenosine triphosphatase activities of control hamster liver plasma membranes exhibited two break points at around 25 and 13 degrees C, whereas Arrhenius plots of their activities in hibernating hamster liver plasma membranes exhibited two break points at around 25 and 4 degrees C. 2. A single break occurring between 25 and 26 degrees C was observed in Arrhenius plots of the activities of fluoride-stimulated adenylate cyclase, basal adenylate cyclase and cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase of liver plasma membranes from both control and hibernating animals. 3. Arrhenius plots of phosphodiesterase I activity showed a single break at 13 degrees C for membranes from control animals, and a single break at around 4 degrees C for liver plasma membranes from hibernating animals. 4. The temperature at which break points occurred in Arrhenius plots of glucagon- and fluoride-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity were decreased by about 7--8 degrees C by addition of 40 mm-benzyl alcohol to the assays. 5. Discontinuities in the Arrhenius plots of 4-anilinonaphthalene-1-sulphonic acid fluorescence occurred at around 24 and 13 degrees C for liver plasma membranes from control animals, and at around 25 and 4 degrees C for membranes from hibernating animals. 6. We suggest that in hamster liver plasma membranes from control animals a lipid phase separation occurs at around 25 degrees C in the inner half of the bilayer and at around 13 degrees C in the outer half of the bilayer. On hibernation a change in bilayer asymmetry occurs, which is expressed by a decrease in the temperature at which the lipid phase separation occurs in the outer half of the bilayer to around 4 degrees C. The assumption made is that enzymes expressing both lipid phase separations penetrate both halves of the bilayer, whereas those experiencing a single break penetrate one half of the bilayer only.

Metal (Me) and MeATP interactions with adenylate cyclases associated with rabbit ventricular particles and with a detergent-dispersed preparation from rat cerebellum have been studied. data were simulated to fit kinetic models in which an inhibitor (HATP or ATP) is added in constant proportion to the variable substrate (MeATP). The specific models considered were that the enzyme binds (a) MeATP as the substrate; (b) MeATP as the substrate and HATP or ATP as an inhibitor; (c) MeATP as the substrate and free Me as an activator; and (d) MeATP as the substrate, free Me as an activator, and HATP or ATP as an inhibitor. Both equilibrium-ordered and random (rapid equilibrium assumption) types of sequential kinetic models were considered. The various models were tested using cardiac particulate adenylate cyclase in the presence of either a phosphoenolpyruvate-pyruvate kinase or a creatine phosphate-creatine kinase ATP-regeneration system. Although the enzyme with either system appeared to bind Mg2+ as an activator, one or both ATP-regeneration systems also seemed to interact directly with adenylate cyclase, making clear interpretations difficult. With the phosphoenolpyruvate-pyruvate kinase system, kinetic patterns on double reciprocal plots were linear as a function of MgATP, but with creatine phosphate-creatine kinase, kinetic patterns were concave downward. The kinetic models were further tested using the detergent-dispersed cerebellar enzyme, a preparation with low adenosine triphosphatase activity and not requiring the addition of an ATP-regeneration system. Reciprocal plots were linear and intersecting as a function of either MeATP or Me (Me = Mg2+ or Mn2+), and secondary replots of slopes and intersecting as function of either MeATP or Me (Me = Mg2+ or Mn2+), and secondary replots of slopes and intercepts also were linear. These data indicate that the brain detergent-dispersed enzyme conforms to a bireactant, sequential mechanism where free cation is a required activator and free ATP is not a potent inhibitor.

The effects of ifenprodil on adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity were examined using guinea pig liver mitochondria. 1) Intact mitochondrial ATPase activity was stimulated by ifenprodil in a concentration-dependent manner, this effect being further potentiated with dinitrophenol. The stimulation by ifenprodil appeared with only ATP among four nucleotides as substrate. Mg2+ and Ca2+ attenuated the effect of ifenprodil. Ifenprodil abolished the KCN-induced inhibition. 2) Heat-treated mitochondrial ATPase activity, kept for 60 min at 50 degrees C, was decreased in a concentration-dependent manner by ifenprodil. The inhibitory effect of ifenprodil was abolished by Mg2+ and Ca2+. These results indicate that ifenprodil has two behaviors, acceleration of a latent ATPase and inhibition of an activated ATPase. These findings, together with our previous data, suggest that ifenprodil seems to affect the actions of Mg2+ and Ca2+ on mitochondrial ATPase by directly affecting the membrane, and these mechanisms may be involved in its anti-cyanide effect.

Hypertension is known to potentiate the risk of congestive heart failure (CHF) in diabetic individuals. Receptor-effector systems for atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), which is known to regulate intracellular calcium (Ca2+), were studied in the kidney during hypertensive-diabetic cardiomyopathy in rats. Animals were divided into four groups: control, diabetic (D), hypertensive (H), and diabetic plus hypertensive (D + H). Diabetes was induced by a streptozotocin (65 mg/kg) injection and hypertension was induced by abdominal aortic constriction; studies were done at 1 and 6 weeks. Plasma ANP was increased at 1 week in the D, H, and D + H groups. There was a significant increase in the activity of Ca2+ + magnesium (Mg2+) adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase), which acts as a Ca2+ pump, in the kidney basolateral membrane from D, H, and D + H group at the 1 week study. Ca2+ + Mg2+ ATPase, on the other hand, was significantly decreased in the D + H group only at 6 weeks. This was associated with a decrease in plasma ANP, an increase in the kidney ANP receptor number, and a decrease in guanylate cyclase activity. The response of the Ca2+ pump to ANP was also attenuated. Since ANP is known to mediate its cellular effects in part by increasing Ca2+ + Mg2+ ATPase, the observed changes in the D + H group may contribute to the development of nephropathy and CHF.

The changes in the magnesium adenosine triphosphatase (Mg2+ ATPase) and sodium-potassium adenosine triphosphatase (Na(+)-K+ ATPase) in gill, brain, liver and muscle tissues of freshwater fish, Cyprinus carpio at 6, 12, 24 and 48 hr exposure periods were studied after subjecting to sublethal concentration (10 micrograms/lit) of fenvalerate. Mg2+ ATPase and Na(+)-K+ ATPase activities were inhibited in all the tissues of fenvalerate exposed fish. The per cent inhibition increased with increase in the period of exposure and the possible reasons for the inhibition patterns are discussed.

The role of ions and cell membrane function in the pathogenesis of benign and malignant hypertension was investigated in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Ten-week-old male SHR (n = 50) and SHR treated with deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA; n = 70) and 1% NaCl drinking water were studied weekly for 14 weeks. Malignant hypertension developed only in DOCA-salt SHR and was characterised by severe hypertension, failure to thrive and renal fibrinoid necrosis. Fourteen DOCA-salt SHR and one SHR died. Extracellular (serum) and intracellular (erythrocyte and muscle) Na+, K+, Mg2+, Ca2+ and muscle membrane Na+,K(+)-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase), Ca(2+)-ATPase and Mg(2+)-ATPase were measured at various stages in the development of malignant hypertension. Three developmental phases were defined: benign, premalignant and malignant. DOCA-salt SHR showed persistent hypokalaemia. In the benign phase, there were no differences in Na+, Mg2+ and Ca2+ between SHR and DOCA-salt SHR. In the premalignant phase, serum and erythrocyte Mg2+ and ATPase activity were significantly lower in DOCA-salt SHR compared with SHR. During the late premalignant and malignant phases, intracellular Ca2+ and Na+ were significantly higher in the DOCA-salt SHR compared with SHR. In view of these findings, the abnormalities in DOCA-salt SHR during the early phases of blood pressure elevation could be contributory factors to the development of malignant hypertension.

In the present work we reported the results of the study of erythrocyte membrane Na+,K(+)-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) and Mg(2+)-ATPase in patients with essential hypertension and controls. In the 40 patients with hypertension, a more marked decrease of Na+, K(+)-ATPase was observed. The behavior of the enzyme at Mg2+ activation, ouabain inhibition and the response to different temperature suggest the possibility of differences between the two groups. The normal erythrocyte Mg(2+)-ATPase activity in two groups suggest also the possible role of ratio Na+, K(+)-ATPase/Mg(2+)-ATPase in the study of essential hypertension. However the relevance of magnesium and Mg(2+)-ATPase to the pathogenesis of essential hypertension remains unclear but merits further study. On the basis of these considerations the aim of the present study was to identify, in a kinetic approach, the presence of different abnormalities of Na+ transport and Na+, K(+)-ATPase in erythrocytes from patients with essential hypertension. Much evidence has supported the hypothesis that essential hypertension is a heterogeneous disease in the pathophysiological mechanisms as well as in its clinical and therapeutical consideration.

Outer-arm dynein purified from trout spermatozoa was disrupted by low-ionic-strength dialysis, and the resulting subunits were separated by sucrose density-gradient centrifugation. The intact 19 S dynein, containing the alpha- an beta-heavy chains, intermediate chains (ICs) 1-5 and light chains (LCs) 1-6, yielded several discrete particles: a 17.5 S adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) composed of the alpha- and beta-chains ICs 3-5 and LC 1; a 9.5 S complex containing ICs 1 and 2 together with LCs 2, 3, 4, and 6; and a single light chain (LC 5), which sedimented at approximately 4 S. In some experiments, ICs 3-5 also separated from the heavy chain complex and were obtained as a distinct subunit. Further dissociation of the 17.5 S particle yielded a 13.1 S ATPase that contained the beta-heavy chain and ICs 3-5. The polypeptide compositions of the complexes provide new information on the intermolecular associations that occur within dynein. Substructural features of the trout dynein polypeptides also were examined. The heavy chains were subjected to vanadate-mediated photolysis at the V1 sites by irradiation at 365 nm in the presence of Mg2+, ATP, and vanadate. Fragment pairs of relative molecular mass (Mr) 245,000/185,000 and 245,000/170,000 were obtained from the alpha- and beta-heavy chains, respectively. Photolysis of these molecules at their V2 sites, by irradiation in the presence of vanadate and Mn2+, yielded fragments of Mr 160,000/270,000 and 165,000/250,000, respectively. These values confirm that the alpha- and beta-heavy chains have masses of 430,000 and 415,000 daltons, respectively. Immunological analysis using monoclonal antibodies revealed that one intermediate chain from trout dynein (IC 2) contains epitopes present in two different intermediate chains from Chlamydomonas dynein. This indicates that specific sequences within the dynein intermediate chains have been highly conserved throughout evolution.

In vivo administration of testosterone significantly stimulated the activities of cytochrome oxidase, alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase (alpha-GPDH), succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) and adenosine triphosphatase (Mg2+ ATPase), in mitochondria isolated from the liver of G. carnosus. Administration of dehydroepiandrosterone and androstenedione while significantly stimulated the activities of cytochrome oxidase and alpha-GPDH, did not change that of SDH and Mg2+ ATPase. Simultaneous injections of testosterone and actinomycin D or chloramphenicol prevented the testosterone-stimulated activities of all the oxidative enzymes studied. The results clearly document the important stimulatory role of androgens in the regulation of hepatic mitochondrial metabolism in G. carnosus.
