1. The preparation and properties of a myofibrillar protein factor which inhibits the Mg(2+)-activated adenosine triphosphatase of desensitized actomyosin is described. 2. This factor had negligible effect on the Mg(2+)-activated adenosine triphosphatase of natural actomyosin and on the Ca(2+)-activated adenosine triphosphatases of desensitized actomyosin and myosin. 3. The Mg(2+)-activated inosine triphosphatase activity of desensitized actomyosin was not affected by the factor. 4. The inhibitory effect was sensitive to ionic strength. In addition to their ionic effects Mg(2+) and Ca(2+) appeared to have a specific action in reducing the effect of the inhibitor. 5. F-actin reduced the inhibition whereas Bailey-type tropo-myosin had little effect. 6. As far as can be judged from the reported experiments this factor is different from any of the previously described myofibrillar components.

1. The effects of Ca(2+) and Mg(2+) on the enzymic activity of myosin were studied with myosin preparations treated by the ion-exchange resin Chelex-100. A reaction mixture containing 0.05m-potassium chloride was chosen in which the effects of univalent ions such as K(+), Na(+) and Cl(-) do not change significantly with small variations in their concentrations. 2. The relationship between the rate of hydrolysis of ATP or ITP and the concentration of Ca(2+) suggests that a relatively weak binding of Ca(2+) either to myosin or to the substrate nucleotide is responsible for the activation of the enzymic activity. According to the experiments with an ultrafiltration technique, the binding of Ca(2+) to myosin proceeds in at least two steps, the first occurring at one site on every 500000 atomic mass units of myosin with an apparent association constant, K(app.), 1.3x10(6)m(-1), and the second seeming to be so weak that its binding parameters cannot be determined by the method used. The first type of Ca(2+) binding is not observable with N-ethylmaleimide-modified myosin, yet this modified myosin shows activation by Ca(2+) of its adenosine triphosphatase and inosine triphosphatase. 3. The inhibition by Mg(2+) can be related to a binding reaction of Mg(2+) with myosin having K(app.) approximately 10(6)m(-1). Mg(2+) replaces the Ca(2+) bound tightly to myosin. The K(app.) for Mg(2+)-myosin binding calculated by assuming a competition between Ca(2+) and Mg(2+) for the same site is 2.1x10(5)-3.0x10(5)m(-1). When myosin is modified with a thiol reagent (p-mercuribenzoate) at a certain ratio to myosin, the inhibition by Mg(2+) becomes unobservable. 4. The behaviour of the hydrolytic activity of myosin on ATP or ITP in the presence of both Ca(2+) and Mg(2+) is consistent with the explanation that the inhibition by Mg(2+) is due to the tight binding of Mg(2+) to myosin, whereas the activation by Ca(2+) is caused either by a weak binding of Ca(2+) to myosin or by CaATP(2-) or by both.

1. Adenylyl imidodiphosphate is an inhibitor with high affinity for the soluble ATPase (adenosine triphosphatase) from mitochondria. 2. The reaction of the inhibitor with the ATPase is slow and estimates for the association and dissociation reaction rate constants are given. 3. The number of binding sites for the inhibitor appears to be doubled in the presence of 2,4-dinitrophenol. 4. Adenylyl imidodiphosphate is less effective as an inhibitor of the ATPase activity of this enzyme than of the inosine triphosphatase activity. It is also less effective on the ATPase of frozen-thawed or intact mitochondria and did not inhibit ADP-stimulated respiration by intact mitochondria.
