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

ABSTRACT: 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.

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

Project description: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.

A method for determining the adenosine triphosphatase content of energy-transducing membranes. reaction of 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzofurazan with the adenosine triphosphatase of bovine heart submitochondrial particles.

Project description:1. Modification of a single amino acid residue by introduction of the nitrobenzofurazan group inactivates mitochondrial ATPase (adenosine triphosphatase) when membrane-bound in submitochondrial particles. The similarity between the reactions of both membrane-bound and isolated ATPase with 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzofurazan indicates that the single essential tryosine residue identified in the isolated enzyme [Ferguson, Loyd, Lyons & Radda (1975) Eur. J. Biochem. 54, 117-126] Is also a feature of the membrane-bound ATPase. 2. A procedure is presented for estimating the ATPase content of the inner mitochondrial membrane. It is based on the specificity of the incorporation of the nitrobenzofurazan group, and the ready removal of this group by compounds that contain a thiol group. This method indicates that 8.5% of the membrane protein is ATPase. The procedure should be applicable to the titration of the energy-transducing ATPases of bacterial plasma membranes and of the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts. 3. Combination of the data obtained on the ATPase content of the bovine heart inner mitochondrial membrane with a titration of the cytochrome bc1 complex with antimycin indicates that these two components of the membrane are present in approximately equal amounts.

Spermine binding to submitochondrial particles and activation of adenosine triphosphatase.

Project description:Studies on the effects of polyamines on oligomycin-sensitive ATPase activity of ox heart submitochondrial particles showed that, of the polyamines tested, only spermine affected the enzyme activity. Spermine within the physiological concentration range increased the Vmax. of the enzyme, but the Km for ATP was virtually unaffected. Binding studies of [14C]spermine to submitochondrial particles, under the same conditions as used for the ATPase assay, showed that the spermine binds to submitochondrial particles in a co-operative way; Hill plots of the data gave a Hill coefficient of 2 and a Kd of 8 microM. When submitochondrial particles were treated with trypsin, ATPase was not stimulated by spermine and the amount of spermine bound concomitantly was drastically decreased. The ATPase activity of isolated F1-ATPase was not affected by spermine. Removal of the natural protein ATPase inhibitor did not suppress either the stimulation of the ATPase activity by spermine or the spermine binding to the particles. The results obtained suggested that the polyamine binds and acts at the level of the liaison between the coupling factor F1 and the membrane sector F0 of the ATPase complex.

MgATP-induced inhibition of the adenosine triphosphatase activity of submitochondrial particles.

Project description:1. The ATP-hydrolytic activity of ox heart submitochondrial particles can be increased from 2-3 mumol/min per mg of protein to 10-12 mumol/min per mg of protein by incubation in media containing 50 mM-Na2B4O7. This process appears to be due to the partial release of inhibitor protein from the particles. 2. The ATPase activity of submitochondrial particles can be inhibited by incubation with the substrate, MgATP. This inhibition is not due to the accumulation of the hydrolysis products, MgADP and Pi, but could involve the process of ATP hydrolysis. 3. The mechanism of MgATP-induced inhibition of ATPase activity is proposed to involve a conformational change in one of the intermediate enzyme species of the ATP-hydrolytic sequence. 4. MgATP inhibits the ATPase activity of control submitochondrial particles at a higher rate and to a greater extent than it does that of inhibitor-protein-depleted submitochondrial particles, suggesting that the conformational change involves the endogenous inhibitor protein.

A simple and rapid method for the preparation of adenosine triphosphatase from submitochondrial particles.

Project description:An almost pure form of the bovine heart mitochondrial adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) is released from the membrane by shaking submitochondrial particles with chloroform. Analyses on polyacrylamide gels and by electron microscopy, and also sensitivity to inhibitors, show that the chloroform-released enzyme is similar to other ATPase preparations from bovine heart mitochondria.

Low-level chemiluminescence of bovine heart submitochondrial particles.

Project description:Submitochondrial particles from bovine heart mitochondria showed low-level chemiluminescence when supplemented with organic hydroperoxides. Chemiluminescence seems to measure integratively radical reactions involved in lipid peroxidation and related processes. Maximal light-emission was about 1500 counts/s and was reached 2-10min after addition of hydroperoxides. Ethyl hydroperoxide, cumene hydroperoxide and t-butyl hydroperoxide were effective in that order. Antimycin and rotenone increased chemiluminescence by 50-60%; addition of substrates, NADH and succinate did not produce marked changes in the observed chemiluminescence. Cyanide inhibited chemiluminescence; half-maximal inhibitory effect was obtained with 0.03mm-cyanide and the inhibition was competitive with respect to t-butyl hydroperoxide. Externally added cytochrome c (10-20mum) had a marked stimulatory effect on chemiluminescence, namely a 12-fold increase in light-emission of antimycin-inhibited submitochondrial particles. Stimulation of hydroperoxide-induced chemiluminescence of submitochondrial particles by cytochrome c was matched by a burst of O(2) consumption. O(2) is believed to participate in the chain radical reactions that lead to lipid peroxidation. Superoxide anion seems to be involved in the chemiluminescence reactions as long as light-emission was 50-60% inhibitible by superoxide dismutase. Singlet-oxygen quenchers, e.g. beta-carotene and 1,4-diazabicyclo[2,2,2]-octane, affected light-emission. beta-Carotene was effective either when incorporated into the membranes or added to the cuvette. The present paper suggests that singlet molecular oxygen is mainly responsible for the light-emission in the hydroperoxide-supplemented submitochondrial particles.

The phosphorylation potential generated by respiring bovine heart submitochondrial particles.

Project description:A phosphorylation potential deltaGp, where deltaGp = deltaGo' + RT2.303 log ([ATP]/([ADP][Pi])), of approx. 44.3 kJ.mol-1 (10.6 kcal.mol-1) was generated by submitochondrial particles that were oxidizing either NADH or succinate. Addition of adenylyl imidodiphosphate, which should suppress adenosine triphosphatase activity of any uncoupled particles, did not raise the phosphorylation potential. Raising the Pi concentration slightly increased the magnitude of the value for [ATP]/[ADP], but this did not fully compensate for the increased Pi concentration, so that the phosphorylation potential decreased slightly as the Pi concentration was raised. The phosphorylation potential developed by submitochondrial particles is lower than that generated by phosphorylating membrane vesicles from some bacteria, and is also less than that developed externally by mitochondria, but is strikingly close to the phosphorylation potential that is generated internally by mitochondria.

Phospholipid association with the bovine cardiac mitochondrial adenosine triphosphatase.

Project description:The association of different phospholipids with a lipid-depleted oligomycin-sensitive ATPase from bovine cardiac mitochondria [Serrano, Kanner & Racker (1976) J. Biol. Chem. 251, 2453-2461] has been examined using three approaches. First, reconstitution of the ATPase with different synthetic diacyl phospholipids resulted in a 2-10-fold stimulation of ATPase specific activity depending upon the particular phospholipid employed. The phospholipid headgroup region displayed the following order of ATPase reactivation potential: dioleoylphosphatidylglycerol greater than dioleoylphosphatidic acid greater than dioleoylphosphatidylcholine. Furthermore, the ATPase showed higher levels of specific activity when reconstituted with dioleoyl phospholipid derivatives compared with dimyristoyl derivatives. Second, examination of the phospholipid remaining associated with the lipid-depleted ATPase upon purification showed that phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, and diphosphatidylglycerol were present. No relative enrichment of any of these phospholipids (compared with their distribution in submitochondrial particles) was noted. Therefore, no preferential association between the ATPase and any one phospholipid could be found in the mitochondrial ATPase. Third, the sodium cholate-mediated phospholipid exchange procedure was employed for studying the phospholipid requirements of the ATPase. Replacement of about 50% of the mitochondrial phospholipid remaining with the lipid-depleted ATPase could be achieved utilizing either synthetic phosphatidic acid or phosphatidylcholine. Examination of the displaced mitochondrial phospholipid showed that phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, and diphosphatidylglycerol were replaced with equal facility.

Interrelationship of islet metabolism, adenosine triphosphate content and insulin release.

Project description:The oxidation of some exogenous substrates and their effects on ATP content and insulin release in mouse pancreatic islets were measured. The ATP concentration of islets incubated without exogenous substrate shows a gradual decrease, which can be prevented by glucose or mannose (20mm) or leucine (2.5mm); d-glyceraldehyde (5mm) is as effective as glucose (5mm); fructose or N-acetylglucosamine (20mm), pyruvate (10mm) and dl-3-hydroxybutyrate (2mm) are less effective; galactose (20mm), acetate (10mm), octanoate (2mm) and succinate (10mm) have no ATP-maintaining ability. Islets oxidize glucose, mannose, glyceraldehyde, leucine and, less readily, N-acetylglucosamine and glucosamine; galactose, however, is poorly metabolized. Mannoheptulose inhibits the oxidation of glucose but not of glyceraldehyde. Insulin release, measured over a 2h incubation, is stimulated by glucose, mannose, leucine, glyceraldehyde or glucosamine but not by fructose or N-acetylglucosamine. The latter, however, potentiates the effects of glucose or glyceraldehyde (5mm) or leucine (2.5mm) on release; the potentiating effects are inhibited by mannoheptulose, which also blocks glucose-, but not glyceraldehyde- or leucine-stimulated release. In the presence of glucose (20mm), metabolic inhibitors depress insulin release and islet ATP content in parallel. However, rates of insulin release and ATP content measured after incubation with various combinations of exogenous substrates do not appear to be correlated. Sulphonylureas stimulate insulin release but decrease islet ATP concentrations. These results provide further evidence of a close association between the metabolic activity of exogenous substrates and their ability to initiate insulin release. Glucoreceptor models are formulated in the light of these observations and discussed.
