The apparent affinity constants for the binding of Cs+, Rb+, K+, Li+, Tl+ and NH4+ to (Na+ + K+)-dependent adenosine triphosphatase from teleost gills were measured and the values discussed in terms of the ion-selectivity isotherm described by Eisenman & Krasne (1975) [in MTP International Review of Science: Biochemistry Series One (Fox, C.F., ed.), vol. 2, pp. 27--59, Butterworths University Park Press, Baltimore]. The ion selectivity of the present enzyme is remarkably similar to that from nerve and brain.

The cation-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activities of erythrocyte ghosts and erythrocyte ghost plasma membrane fragments of patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) were compared with activities in age-matched normal male controls. DMD Mg++-stimulated ATPase activity was within the normal range. The specific activity of DMD erythrocyte ghost Na+,K+-stimulated, Mg++-dependent ATPase was also normal, and was inhibited by 10(-4) M ouabain to an extent comparable with controls. Ca++-stimulated, Mg++-dependent ATPase activity of DMD erythrocyte ghost plasma membrane fragments, assayed at 0.5 mM free Ca++, was 21% above that in age-matched male controls (n = 22, 2-tailed paired t-test, P less than 0.01). Kinetic studies indicated that the DMD erythrocyte Ca++-stimulated, Mg++-dependent ATPase has greater affinity for MgATP than the enzyme in control erythrocytes.

A tritium-labeled derivative of quinidine (D3HQ) was used to assess binding and effect of this drug on isolated membrane preparations from myocardium. D3HG bound to sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles (SRV) and diminished both Ca++ binding and Ca++ uptake activity. Binding of more than 19 nmol of D3HQ were required to displace 1 nmol of Ca++. Dual-wavelength spectrophotometric methods for monitoring the alterations in Ca++ binding showed that D3HQ depressed maximal Ca++ binding and hastened the onset of Ca++ release from Ca++-loaded SRV, but did not alter the maximal rate of Ca++ release. D3HG also diminished Ca++ sequestration by isolated cardiac mitochondria but the level of D3HQ binding did not correlate with the degree of inhibition. Binding of D3HQ to Na+, K+-adenosine triphosphatase also occurred to a limited extent and a partial inhibition of enzyme activity resulted. A reciprocal relationship between D3HQ binding and a decrease in functional activity of the subcellular membrane systems could be demonstrated only for SRV. The results suggest that cinchona alkaloids might affect myocardial contractility by their effects on Ca++ handling by SRV.

Bumetanide, a sulfamyl-aminobenzoic acid derivative, is a new and highly effective diuretic agent. The present studies were designed to examine its effects on cation transport in human red cells. At a concentration of 10(-3) M, the drug inhibited both active and passive unidirectional sodium fluxes, as well as active potassium influx. It also caused a significant inhibition of glycolysis. The inhibition caused by bumetanide was less than that seen with ouabain alone, but a bumetanide effect was also present in ouabain-treated cells. Bumetanide had no effect on red cell Na-K adenosine triphosphatase activity and did not affect net transport of sodium in sodium-loaded cells. The data are consistent with a model in which the inhibition of monovalent cation movement in red cells by bumetanide is related to an effect of this compound in decreasing the permeability of the red cell membrane to sodium.

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.

In order to learn whether the kinetics of transient phosphorylation of sodium plus potassium ion transport adenosine triphosphatase was compatible with the hydrolysis of ATP, computer simulation of experimental data was studied. The enzyme mechanism was described in terms of first order and pseudo-first order reactions. The resulting system of linear first order differential equations was solved by a Runge-Kutta method. Phosphorylation kinetics was studied by means of a rapid mixing apparatus at 21 degrees in the presence of 100 micron ATP, 3 mM MgCl2, 120 mM NaCl, and 10 mM KCl. Computer simulation gave a close fit to experimental data with a model of the reaction mechanism which included a sequence of two dephospho forms and two phospho forms of the enzyme. With this model, rate constants obtained by computer simulation were in agreement with constants which had been determined in separate phosphorylation and dephosphorylation experiments. Within experimental limits, the net flux of reaction in each partial step was compatible with the (Na+,K+)-stimulated hydrolysis of ATP (about 324 and 300 nmol-mg-1-min-1, respectively).

Coated vesicles from the brain have been purified to near morphological homogeneity by a modification of the method of Pearse. These vesicles resemble sarcoplasmic reticulum fragments isolated from skeletal muscle. They contain proteins with 100,000- and 55,000-dalton mol wt which co-migrate on polyacrylamide gels, in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate, with the two major proteins of the sarcoplasmic reticulum fragment. These vesicles contain adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) activity which is stimulated by calcium ions in the presence of Triton X-100 (Rohm & Haas Co., Philadelphia, Pa.), displaying maximal activity at 8 x 10(-7) M Ca ++. They take up calcium ions from the medium, and this uptake is stimulated by ATP and by potassium oxalate, a calcium-trapping agent. The 100,000-dalton protein of the coated vesicles displays immunological reactivity with an antiserum directed against the 100,000-dalton, calcium-stimulated ATPase of the sarcoplasmic reticulum. As with the sarcoplasmic reticulum fragment, this protein becomes radiolabeled when coated vesicles are briefly incubated with gamma-labeled [32P]ATP. The possible functions of coated vesicles as calcium-sequestering organelles are discussed.

Exposure of the outside of the isolated frog skin to a Ringer's solution, made hypertonic by the addition of mannitol, causes a rapid and sustained increase in transepithelial permeability through a structural distortion-a focal blistering-of the "tight" junctions of the outermost living cell layer. [(3)H]ouabain, used as an autoradiographic marker for the Na+-pump (Na+-K+-adenosine triphosphatase), is usually unable to penetrate the frog skin from the outside solution, but when added to a hypertonic mannitol- Ringer's solution in the outside bath it readily penetrates the epithelium, presumably through the opened shunt pathway. Radioautographic analysis of [(3)H]ouabain binding sites revealed that most of ouabain enters from the outside solution binds to the sites on the cell membranes of the stratum spinosum, as was the case when it was applied from the inside bath in an earlier study. The outer living cell layer, the first to be exposed to ouabain, does not appear to be the major site for the Na+-pump, and therefore, is not likely to be responsible for most of the active pumping of Na+. This result demonstrates that previous failure to show a high density of Na+-pump sites on the cells of the outermost layer, when [(3)H]ouabain was applied from the inside solution, was not due to the inability of the marker to reach these cells at a sufficient concentration to reveal all pump sites. These results provide further support for a model of Na+-transport across the frog skin which distributes the active pump step on the inward facing membranes of all living cells.

1. The influence of various Na+ concentrations on [3H]-ouabain binding was studied in experiments on a microsomal Na+-K+-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) from guinea-pig hearts. 2. The ATP-independent cardiac glycoside binding was not influenced by increasing Na+ concentrations. However, a good correlation was found between the ATP-dependent [3H]-ouabain binding and Na+ concentration. 3. A more detailed analysis of these results according to Hofstee (1952) revealed two distinct processes involved in this interaction: one ouabain binding process was activated at rather low Na+ concentrations, (K0.5 = 4.5 mM); this type of [3H]-ouabain binding was strongly correlated to the Na+ concentration necessary for half maximum phosphorylation (K0.5 = 1 mM). The other ouabain binding process was predominant at high Na+ concentrations (K0.5 = 69 mM). 4. On the basis of the commonly accepted ATPase reaction cycle a model for the interaction of cardiac glycosides with the Na+-K+-ATPase is proposed, assuming two different binding sites for cardiac glycosides (E2-P and E1-P) and involving a translocation of these drugs from an outer to an inner compartment of the cell membrane.

The adenosine triphosphatase activity of erythrocyte ghosts from patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy was inhibited by 10(-4) M ouabain to a smaller extent than in normals, when measured in the presence of either high or low concentrations of sodium or potassium ions. The inhibition by ouabain of the enzyme in normal ghosts, measured with low sodium or potassium ions, was less if the erythrocytes were first incubated with plasma from Duchenne patients than if incubated with normal plasma. Similar results were obtained when the ghosts themselves were incubated with Duchenne or normal plasma before assay.
