Occurrence of an uncoupler-resistant intermediate type of phosphate-water oxygen exchange reaction catalyzed by heart submitochondrial particles.

The hydrolysis of ATP catalyzed by phosphorylating vesicles prepared from bovine heart mitochondria by ultrasonic disruption was studied in H218O. Provided that an ATP-generating system was included to prevent accumulation of ADP due to hydrolysis, the addition of 20 mM arsenate or 0.5 mM 2,4-dinitrophenol to the incubation mixture either singly or together, had little or no effect on the number of oxygen atoms from H2O incorporated (on the average) into each molecule of Pi formed by hydrolysis (the O:P ratio). As the ATP concentration was reduced from 2.0 to 0.05 mM, the O:P ratio increased from about 1.4 to over 2.0 and, although dinitrophenol significantly increased the ATPase activity, it did not significantly alter the O:P ratio for a given ATP level. This implies that the uncoupler does not act directly on the terminal transphosphorylation step. Companion experiments were performed in which 18O label was placed either initially in H2O or Pi. Under conditions where extensive exchange from H218O into Pi occurred, no 18O was lost from medium Pi under identical circumstances, thus showing that the exchange was intermediate and did not involve medium Pi. Kinetic plots of v vs. v/S were nonlinear with respect to ATPase activity. The kinetic data, as well as the Pi = H218O exchange data, are consistent with enzyme models having multiple forms of catalytic sites. Several models are evaluated and attempts are made to distinguish between some of the simpler cases of these models.

The adenosine triphosphatase-inhibitor content of bovine heart submitochondrial particles. Influence of the inhibitor on adenosine triphosphate-dependent reactions.

1. The activity of the ATPase (adenosine triphosphatase) of phosphorylating particles prepared by sonication of bovine heart mitochondria in the presence of MgCl2 and ATP is influenced by the isolation method for the mitochondria used in the preparation of particles. Type-I particles, made from mitochondria isolated in a medium lacking succinate, have a lower ATPase activity than to Type-II particles, which are prepared from mitochondria isolated in a medium containing succinate. 2. Centrifugation under appropriate energized conditions increases the ATPase activity of Type-I particles almost to that of the Type-II particles. The ATPase activity of Type-II particles was only slightly stimulated by this procedure. These data are interpreted as indicating a higher content of the ATPase-inhibitor protein in the Type-I particles. 3. A comparison was made of the ATP-driven enhancement of 8-anilinonaphthalene-1-sulphonate fluorescence and the exchange of the endogenous tightly bound nucleotides of the ATPase in Type-I and Type-II particles. The effect of exogenous inhibitor protein on both these reactions was also studied. 4. The time-scale on which the inhibitor protein can exchange between ATPase molecules is discussed.

Reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-dependent lipid peroxidation by beef heart submitochondrial particles.

Electron transport particles (ETP) prepared from beef heart mitochondria formed malondialdehyde by NADPH-dependent lipid peroixidation in the presence of ferric ions and ADP or ATP. The reaction was inhibited by MnCl2, EDTA, or radical scavengers, but was not inhibited by p-hydroxymercuribenzoate (PHMB) or respiratory chain inhibitors. The oxidation of NADPH and oxygen consumption by ETP were activated by the addition of ferric ions and APT, and inhibited by inhibitors of lipid peroxidation. This peroxidation system was apparently different from those of liver microsomes and mitochondria as regards the effect of PHMB, optimal pH and the concentration of NADPH for half-maximal reaction velocity.
