Kinetics of interaction of adenosine diphosphate and adenosine triphosphate with adenosine triphosphatase of bovine heart submitochondrial particles.

The short preincubation of submitochondrial particles with low concentrations of ADP in the presence of Mg2+ results in a complete loss of their ATPase and inosine triphosphatase activities. Other nucleoside diphosphates (IDP and GDP) do not affect the ATPase activity. The ADP-inhibited ATPase can be activated in a time-dependent manner by treatment of submitochondrial particles with the enzyme converting ADP into ATP (phosphoenolpyruvate plus pyruvate kinase). The activaton is a first-order reaction with rate constant 0.2 min-1 at 25 degrees C. The rate constant of activation is increased in the presence of ATP up to 2 min-1, and this increase shows saturation kinetics with Km value equal to that for ATPase reaction itself (10(-4) M at 25 degrees C at pH 8.0). The experimental results obtained are consistent with the model where two alternative pathways of ADP dissociation from the inhibitory site of ATPase exist; one is spontaneous dissociation and the second is ATP-dependent dissociation through the formation of the ternary complex between ADP, the enzyme and ATP. ADP-induced inactivation and ATP-dependent activation of ATPase activity of submitochondrial particles is accompanied by the same directed change of their ability to catalyse the ATP-dependent reverse electron transport from succinate to NAD+. The possible implication of the model suggested is discussed in terms of functional role of the inhibitory high-affinity binding site for ADP in the mitochondrial ATPase.

Tightness and orientation of vesicles from guinea-pig kidney estimated from reactions of adenosine triphosphatase dependent on sodium and potassium ions.

In order to study the "sidedness" of the ligands of the Na+, K+-ATPase in the phosphorylation from [32P]ATP, tight vesicles were prepared from guinea pig kidney and partially purified by a two-stage sucrose and Ficoll gradient centrifugation procedure. These vesicles were derived presumably from plasma membrane fragments resealed after the initial disruption of the cells during homogenization. Tightness of the vesicles was estimated according to activation by the nonionic detergent, Triton X-100. Treatment with Triton X-100 increased both the activity of the Na+, K+-ATPase and its Na+-dependent phosphorylation from [32P]ATP at least three-fold. Activation of both functions also appeared when the vesicles were shocked osmotically. These results suggest that the preparation contains a major population of tight normal vesicles (approximately 75%) in which the phosphorylation site faces the intravesicular solution. In the response to ouabain breakdown of the phosphoenzyme was inhibited in vesicles treated with Triton X-100 but not in intact ones as if ouabain could not get to its binding site. Correspondingly in phosphorylation from ATP pretreatment with ouabain in the presence of inorganic phosphate produced less inhibition in intact vesicles than in those disrupted with Triton X-100 beforehand. These data suggest the presence of an everted vesicle fraction in the preparation (approximately 20%). Apparently only a small fraction of the vesicles was leaky. In the everted vesicles the action of K+ on the phosphoenzyme was slow. In order to accelerate the dephosphorylation in intact vesicles as effectively as in disrupted ones, K+ had to be added before the start of phosphorylation. This supports the view that K+ was acting from the side of the membrane opposite to that where the gamma-phosphoryl group was accepted from ATP.

Specific modifications of the Na+,K+-dependent adenosine triphosphatase by dimethyl sulfoxide.

DMSO inhibits the Na+, K+-ATPase, but stimulates the associated K+-phosphatase activity. For the ATPase, DMSO acts as an uncompetitive inhibitor toward both ATP and Na+, whereas it increases the K0.5 for K+. From measurements of the dissociation constant (Km) of these ions in the ligand states that correspond to the ATPase reaction, it can be shown that DMSO has little effect on the affinity for Na+, but decreases the affinity for K+ of the enzyme-phosphate intermediate (the form that has the highest affinity for K+). By contrast, DMSO decreases the Km for the phosphatase substrate (nitrophenyl phosphate) without affecting the Vmax. Moreover, DMSO decreases the K0.5 for K+ and also the Kd for K+ in the ligand states that correspond to the phosphatase reaction (which have only a moderate affinity for K+, since the acyl phosphate intermediate is absent in this pathway). These data may be incorporated into a reaction mechanism for the Na+, K+-ATPase. Initially the enzyme is phosphorylated to form an acyl phosphate intermediate, in steps that require Na+ and Mg-2+. At this stage the affinity of K+ is markedly increased (from the moderate affinity seen in the "free" enzyme and the phosphatase reaction). When K+ is bound, the phosphate group is transferred to the hydrolytic site where P-i is ultimately released. DMSO acts at the point at which the acyl phosphate group or the phosphatase substrate enters the hydrolytic site, inhibiting one and facilitating the other. At this stage the affinity for K+ is also changing, and DMSO apparently selects an enyme conformation of intermediate affinity. Ion transport may occur by a gate mechanism in an overall system that operates on a half-of-the-sites active enzyme pattern in which ATP hydrolysis may alternate between the dimeric subunits of the enzyme.

Characterization of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum ATP-ADP phosphate exchange and phosphorylation of the calcium transport adenosine triphosphatase.

1. The terminal phosphate of (gamma-32P)ATP is rapidly incorporated into cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes (0.7--1.3 mumol/g protein) in the presence of calcium and magnesium. Cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes catalize an ATP-ADP phosphate exchange in the presence of calcium and magnesium. 2. Half-maximum activation of the phosphoprotein formation and ATP-ADP phosphate exchange is reached at an ionized calcium concentration of about 0.3 muM. The Hill coefficients are 1.3. 3. Transphosphorylation and ATP-ADP phosphate exchange require magnesium and are maximally activated at magnesium concentrations close to or equal to the ATP concentration. 4. The phosphoprotein level is reduced to about 45% at an ADP/ATP ratio of 0.1. The rate of calcium-dependent ATP splitting declines, whilst the rate of the calcium-dependent ATP-ADP phosphate exchange increases when the ADP/ATP ratio is varied from 0.1 to 1. The sum of both, the rate of ATP splitting and the rate of ADP-ATP phosphate exchange remains constant. 5. Phosphoprotein formation and ATP-ADP phosphate exchange are not affected by azide, dinitrophenol, dicyclohexyl carbodiimide and oubain, whilst both activities are reduced by blockade of -SH groups localized on the outside of the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane. 6. The isolated phosphoprotein is acid stable. The trichloroacetic acid denatured 32P-labelled membrane complex is dephosphorylated by hydroxylamine, which might indicate that the phosphorylated protein is an acyl-phosphate. 7. Polyacrylamide gel elctrophoresis (performed with phenol/acetic acid/water) of phosphorylated sarcoplasmic reticulum fractions demonstrates that the 32P-incorporation occurs into a protein of about 100000 molecular weight. 8. It is suggested that the phosphoprotein represents a phosphorylated intermediate of the calcium-dependent ATPase which formation occurs as an early step in the reaction sequence of calcium translocation by cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum similar as in skeletal muscle.

Influence of efrapeptin, aurovertin and citreoviridin on the mitochondrial adenosine triphosphatase from Trypanosoma cruzi.

Steady-state velocity studies using a substrate regenerating system showed that efrapeptin, citreoviridin and aurovertin inhibit both membrane-bound and soluble mitochondrial ATPase (coupling factor F1) from Trypanosoma cruzi. Maximal inhibitions of ATP hydrolysis produced by efrapeptin and citreoviridin were 100-93%, while the maximal inhibition produced by aurovertin was 40%. Half-maximal inhibitory concentrations decreased in the order citreoviridin greater than aurovertin greater than efrapeptin. Dissociation constants (KD) for the inhibitor-F1 complex were 81 nM (efrapeptin), 6.6 muM (aurovertin) and 40 muM (citreoviridin); KD values for the membrane-bound F1 were 2-4 fold higher than for soluble F1. Representation of efrapeptin inhibition data in the Hill form yielded straight lines (n = 1) while the same representation of citreoviridin inhibition yielded concave down plots. In contrast to the immediate effect of citreoviridin and aurovertin, efrapeptin inhibition was time-dependent. The onset of inhibition, which was pseudo-first-order with respect to efrapeptin, indicated that ATP may promote the binding of efrapeptin to the enzyme. The kinetics of ATP hydrolysis by T. cruzi ATPase as a function MgATP concentration could be explained by the presence of two substrate sites on the enzyme, interacting in such a way that the binding and catalytic events at one site were conformationally linked to the events at the other site, as with the mammalian ATPase. When the antibiotics were assayed at increasing substrate concentrations, efrapeptin produced a linear, mixed-type inhibition whereas citreoviridin produced a parabolic noncompetitive-type inhibition. The aurovertin effect was unusual since the extent of inhibition was greater at high substrate concentrations. Maximal concentrations of all the assayed antibiotics linearized the biphasic double reciprocal plot of control ATPase activity. Comparison of T. cruzi and mammalian F1 responses to the assayed antibiotics revealed the operation of similar inhibition mechanisms but the T. cruzi enzyme was significantly less sensitive to inhibitors than its mammalian counterpart.

Mutations in the nucleotide-binding sites of P-glycoprotein that affect substrate specificity modulate substrate-induced adenosine triphosphatase activity.

The amino- and carboxy-terminal nucleotide-binding domains (NBD1 and NBD2) of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) share over 80% sequence identity. Almost all of NBD1 can be exchanged by corresponding NBD2 segments with no significant loss of function, except for a small segment around the Walker B motif. Within this segment, we identified two sets of residues [ERGA --> DKGT (522-525) and T578C] that, when replaced by their NBD2 counterparts, cause dramatic alterations of the substrate specificity of the protein [Beaudet, L., and Gros, P. (1995) J. Biol. Chem. 270, 17159-17170]. We wished to gain insight into the molecular basis of this defect. For this, we overexpressed the wild-type mouse Mdr3 and variants bearing single or double mutations at these positions in the yeast Pichia pastoris. P-gp-specific ATPase activity was measured in yeast plasma membrane preparations after detergent solubilization and reconstitution in Escherichia coli proteoliposomes. P-gp proteoliposomes from P. pastoris showed a strong verapamil- and valinomycin-stimulated ATPase activity, with characteristics (KM, Vmax) similar to those measured in mammalian cells. Mutations did not appear to affect the KM for Mg2+ATP ( approximately 0.4 mM), but maximum velocity (Vmax) of the drug-stimulated ATPase activity was severely affected in a substrate/modulator-specific fashion. Indeed, all mutants showed complete loss of verapamil-induced ATPase, while all retained at least some degree of valinomycin-induced ATPase activity. Photolabeling studies with [125I]iodoarylazidoprazosin, including competition with MDR drugs and modulators, suggested that drug binding was not affected in the mutants. The altered drug resistance profiles of the ERGA --> DKGT(522-525) and T578C mutants in vivo, together with the observed alterations in substrate-induced ATPase activity of these proteins, suggest that the residues involved may form part of a signal pathway between the membrane regions (substrate binding) and the ATP binding sites.

Temperature induced analog reaction of adenylyl imidodiphosphate to an intermediate step of heavy meromyosin adenosine triphosphatase.

The UV absorption difference spectrum of heavy meromyosin induced by adenylyl imidodiphosphate (AMP-PNP) was found to be changed by temperature. At higher temperatures, the shape of the difference spectrum resembled the ATP-form of difference spectrum induced by ATP. At lower temperatures, a different shape was observed, resembling that induced by ADP. This temperature transition was found in the presence of both MgCl2 and MnCl2. The transition temperatures, were 21 degrees and 9 degrees in the presence of MnCl2 and MgCl2, respectively. A similar temperature dependence was observed with the difference spectrum induced by ATP at the steady state. The transition temperatures in this case were 11 degrees and 4.5 degrees in the presence of MnCl2 and MgCl2, respectively. The similarity of the effects of the two kinds of divalent cation on both transitions indicates that the temperature induced transition between two species of heavy meromyosin-AMP-PNP complex mimics the step in APTase [EC 3.6.1.3] reaction in which the intermediate complex showing the ATP-form of difference spectrum changes to that showing the ADP-form. The equilibrium constant of the decay step of the ATP-form of difference spectrum to the ADP-form in ATPase is, therefore, thought to be highly temperature dependent. Thermodynamic parameters were calculated for the transition between the two species of heavy meromyosin AMP-PNP complex. Large decreases in enthalpy and entropy were observed, while the standard free energy change was small. The results suggest that the intermediate showing the ATP-form of difference spectrum hardly changes to the forward direction in the ATPase reaction at higher temperature. The complex appears to be so stable in the steady state that almost all the myosin is present as this complex. The decay step in ATPase of the difference spectrum from the ATP-form to to the ADP-form may be coupled to muscular contraction. The temperature induced transition of heavy meromyosin AMP-PNP complex may, therefore, provide information concerning the state of myosin in active muscles.

The C-terminal nucleotide binding domain of the human retinal ABCR protein is an adenosine triphosphatase.

The rod outer segment ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporter protein (ABCR) plays an important role in retinal rod cells presumably transporting retinal. Genetic studies in humans have linked mutations in the ABCR gene to a number of inherited retinal diseases particularly Stargardt macular degeneration and age-related macular degeneration (ARMD). The ABCR protein is characterized by two nucleotide binding domains and two transmembrane domains, each consisting of six membrane-spanning helices. We have cloned and expressed the 376 amino acid (aa) C-terminal end of this protein (amino acid residues 1898-2273) containing the second nucleotide binding domain (NBD2) with a purification tag at its amino terminus. The expressed protein was found to be soluble and was purified using a rapid and high-yield single-step procedure. The purified protein was monomeric and migrated as a 43 kDa protein in SDS-PAGE. The purified NBD2 protein had strong ATPase activity with a K(m) of 631 microM and V(max) of 144 nmol min(-1) mg(-1). This ATPase activity on normalization was kinetically comparable to that observed for purified and reconstituted native ABCR. Nucleotide inhibition studies suggest that the binding of NBD2 is specific for ATP/dATP, and that none of the other ribonucleotides appeared to compete for binding at this site. These studies demonstrate that cloned and expressed NBD2 protein is a fully functional ATPase in the absence of the remainder of the molecule. The level of ATPase activity was comparable to that of trans-retinal-stimulated ABCR ATPase. The NBD2 expression plasmid was used to generate a Leu2027Phe mutation associated with Stargardt disease. Analysis of the ATPase activity of the mutant protein demonstrated that it had a 14-fold increase in binding affinity (K(m) = 46 microM) with a corresponding 9-fold decrease in the rate of hydrolysis (V(max) = 16.6 nmol min(-1) mg(-1)), indicating a significant alteration of the ATPase function. It also provided a molecular basis of Stargardt disease involving this mutation.

The relationship between the bovine heart mitochondrial adenosine triphosphatase, lipophilic compounds, and oligomycin.

The lipid-free particulate preparations of the mitochondrial ATPase require phospholipid for activity and can be inhibited by oligomycin, as has been demonstrated previously. In this communication a steady state analysis of the activation of a particulate preparation of the ATPase by phospholipids and its subsequent inhibition by oligomycin has been carried out. The relative affinity of the ATPase for purified phospholipids has been determined by measuring the Km for activation (Ka) for several phospholipids. The Ka values varied from 30 to 100 mum. The Vmax in the presence of phosphatides varies from 0.29 to 1.11 mumol ATP hydrolyzed/min/mg of protein; no correlation is noted between the relative affinity of the enzyme for a phospholipid and the V max value. Higher V max values are noted with the more acidic phospholipids, however. Sodium dodecyl sulfate and monoolein also activate with Ka values of 25 and 800 mum, respectively. Diglycerides, however, do not activate. With all lipids the ATPase activity stimulated is oligomycin-sensitive. The Ki values for oligomycin range from 0.1 to 0.6 mum. Oligomycin is a competitive inhibitor with respect to all the phospholipids tested except phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidyglycerol. It is also competitive with respect to sodium dodecyl sulfate (k-i equals 0.94 mum). In reciprocal plots of activity versus ATP concentration, with and without oligomycin, an intercept consistent with either mixed or partial noncompetitive inhibition kinetics is noted. Comparable K-i values for oligomycin are obtained when calculated assuming either mixed or partial noncompetitive inhibition. The Km for ATP is the same in the unactivated and the lipid activated particulate ATPase; the value obtained is slightly lower than the Km for ATP in the solubilized, purified ATPase. Using a spectrophotometric assay the time required for activation with phospholipid and inhibition with oligomycin has also been determined. This investigation suggests the possibility that activation of the ATPase is due a position to interact with the water-soluble substrate. Consistent with the above suggestion is the supposition that the lipids do not necessarily confer inhibitor sensitivity to the ATPase, but rather allow an oligomycin-sensitive activity to be expressed.

Post-tetanic hyperpolarization, sodium-potassium-activated adenosine triphosphatase and high energy phosphate levels in garfish olfactory nerve.

1. While much is now known about the Na-K-ATPase and the posttetanic hyperpolarization of nervous tissue, they have yet to be studied together in the same preparation. 2. The post-tetanic hyperpolarization was studied in desheathed garfish olfactory nerve. The rate constant of decay of the post-tetanic hyperpolarization was determined by monitoring difference potentials after stimulation at 1/sec for 2-3 min. 3. In membrane fractions prepared from these nerves, the ouabain-sensitive ATPase activity (Na-K-ATPase) was determined by spectrophotometric measurements. 4. Both the post-tetanic hyperpolarization and the Na-K-ATPase showed a similar sigmoidal dependence on K+ concentration. The sequence of cation specificities measured at the K-site of the enzyme was the same as that determined by post-tetanic hyperpolarization measurements in whole nerve. 5. The rate constants of the enzyme showed a dependence on Na+ concentration that paralleled the way in which the post-tetanic hyperpolarization rate constants varied as a function of the number of impulses. When Na+ was completely replaced by Li+, neither enzyme activity nor post-tetanic hyperpolarization could be measured. 6. The pH optimum for enzyme activity was between pH 7-0 and 7-8, while the optimal pH for post-tetanic hyperpolarization was above pH 8-0. 7. Metabolite levels in preparations of this nerve studied in vitro correspond to levels found in vivo. 8. High energy phosphate levels were measured fluorometrically in extracts of nerve samples that had been stimulated in air at 1/sec for various intervals. 9. During the first 2 min of stimulation, there was a significant accumulation of inorganic phosphate, and the ATP/ADP.Pi ratio dropped appreciably. 10. The accumulation of ATPase products was commensurate with the approach of post-tetanic hyperpolarization rate constants to their maximum level. This provides direct evidence for an ATPase functioning in active Na+ transport in nerve. 11. The garfish Na-K-ATPase is sensitive to the ATP/ADP ratio of the incubating medium, but is relatively insensitive to orthophosphate, Pi. The fall in post-tetanic hyperpolarization rate constants observed with continued nerve stimulation may have been partially due to the falling ATP/ADP ratio measured in nerve under similar conditions.

A kinetic description for sodium and potassium effects on (Na+ plus K+)-adenosine triphosphatase: a model for a two-nonequivalent site potassium activation and an analysis of multiequivalent site models for sodium activation.

1. Dissociation constants for sodium and potassium of a site that modulates the rate of ouabain-(Na(+)+K(+))-ATPase interaction were applied to models for potassium activation of (Na(+)+K(+))-ATPase. The constants for potassium (0.213 mM) and for sodium (13.7 mM) were defined, respectively, as activation constant, K(a) and inhibitory constant, K(i).2. Tests of the one- and the two-equivalent site models, that describe sodium and potassium competition, revealed that neither model adequately predicts the activation effects of potassium in the presence of 100 or 200 mM sodium.3. The potassium-activation data, obtained at low potassium and high sodium, were explained by a two-nonequivalent site model where the dissociation constants of the first site are 0.213 mM for potassium and 13.7 mM for sodium. The second site was characterized by dissociation constants of 0.091 mM for potassium and 74.1 mM for sodium.4. The two-nonequivalent site model adequately predicted the responses to concentrations of potassium between 0.25 and 5 mM in the presence of 100-500 mM sodium. At lower sodium concentrations the predicted responses formed an upper limit for the function of observed activities. This limit was reached at lower concentrations of potassium and higher concentrations of sodium, which inferred saturation of the sodium-activation sites with sodium.5. Sodium-activation data were corrected for sodium interaction with potassium-activation sites by use of the two-nonequivalent site model for potassium activation. Tests of equivalent site models suggested that the corrected data for sodium activation may be most consistent with a model that has three-equivalent sites. Other multiequivalent site models (n = 2, 4, 5 or 6), however, cannot be statistically eliminated as possibilities. The three-equivalent site activation model was characterized by dissociation constants of 1.39 mM for sodium and 11.7 mM for potassium. The system theoretically would be half-maximally activated by 5.35 mM sodium in the absence of potassium.6. Derivation of the model for sodium activation assumed that the affinities of these sites for sodium and potassium are independent of cation interactions with the potassium-activation sites. Therefore, the kinetic descriptions for sodium and potassium effects form a composite model that is consistent with simultaneous transport of sodium and potassium.7. Predictions of the composite equation are in reasonable agreement with data obtained by variation of sodium (potassium = 10 mM), variation of potassium (sodium = 100 mM) and by simultaneous variation of sodium and potassium (sodium:potassium = 10). Sodium-activation data (2.5-20 mM sodium) also agree with predictions of the model in the presence of potassium concentrations which are thought to be present at the sodium-activation sites in vivo.8. The kinetic description for sodium (three-equivalent sites) and potassium (two-nonequivalent sites) activation of the transport-ATPase is in accord with the probable stoichiometric requirements of the sodium pump. The model is also in general agreement with other studies on intact transporting systems and (Na(+)+K(+))-ATPase in fragmented membrane preparations with respect to potassium activation, although there is a quantitative disagreement. The model for sodium activation, though consistent with data obtained by other studies on fragmented (Na(+)+K(+))-ATPase preparations, is in apparent variance with much of the data obtained for intact transporting systems. The description for potassium activation suggests that the rates of ouabain binding to (Na(+)+K(+))-ATPase are modulated by competition between sodium and potassium for one of the two potassium-activation sites.
