Project description:1. A microsomal fraction from ox cerebral cortex catalysed [(14)C]ADP-ATP exchange at a speed similar to that at which it liberated P(i) from ATP in the presence of Na(+), K(+) and Mg(2+). 2. Repeated washing the fraction with MgATP solutions solubilized most of the exchange activity and left the adenosine triphosphatase insoluble and little changed in activity. The exchange activity was accompanied by negligible adenosine-triphosphatase activity and was enriched by precipitation at chosen pH and by DEAE-Sephadex. At no stage was its activity affected by Na(+), K(+) or ouabain. 3. The washed microsomal fraction was exposed to a variety of reagents; a sodium iodide-cysteine treatment increased both adenosine-triphosphatase and exchange activities, as also did a synthetic zeolite. Preparations were obtained with exchange activities less than 3% of their Na(+)-plus-K(+)-stimulated adenosine-triphosphatase activity. Some contribution to the residual exchange activity was made by an adenylate kinase. 4. Thus over 95% of the microsomal ADP-ATP-exchange activity does not take part in the Na(+)-plus-K(+)-stimulated adenosine-triphosphatase reaction. Participation of some of the residual 3% of the ADP-ATP-exchange activity has not been excluded, but there appears no firm evidence for its participation in the adenosine triphosphatase; the bearing of this conclusion on mechanisms proposed for the Na(+)-plus-K(+)-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase is indicated.

Project description:1. Adenosine triphosphatase activities of dispersions prepared from bovine cerebral cortex that had been frozen, were greater than those of dispersions prepared from fresh tissue. The subcellular distribution of components of the dispersion was not altered by freezing the tissue and a microsomal fraction enriched in Na(+)+K(+)-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase activity was prepared. 2. The bovine cerebral microsomes were further treated with a 2m-sodium iodide reagent to obtain a particulate preparation with minimal Na(+)+K(+)-independent adenosine triphosphatase activity. Na(+)+K(+)-stimulated activity was increased by the sodium iodide treatment and this preparation was shown to be enriched in lipid constituents. 3. Density-gradient centrifugation of the sodium iodide treated preparation gave three main subfractions each containing approximately equal amounts of phospholipid and protein. Further exposure of the sodium iodide-treated preparation to the 2m-sodium iodide reagent altered the distribution of protein and phospholipid among the fractions obtained by density-gradient centrifugation. Dissociation of phospholipids from protein in the sodium iodide-treated preparation was brought about also by high concentrations of arginine. Concentrated solutions of arginine and sodium thiocyanate brought about dissociation of phospholipids from protein of the microsomal preparation. 4. Many amino acids were found to inhibit Na(+)+K(+)-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase activity when present in high concentrations. The inhibition was complex but resulted, in part at least, from diminished affinity for ATP and Na(+) in the presence of the amino acids. 5. A non-ionic detergent, Lubrol W, solubilized up to 40% of the enzyme activity of the sodium iodide-treated preparation together with 30% of the protein and phospholipid in the preparation. Protein was released from the sodium iodide-treated preparation by pancreatic elastase but Na(+)+K(+)-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase activity of the residue was diminished. Ultrasonic treatment of the sodium iodide-treated preparation failed to release a significant proportion of Na(+)+K(+)-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase activity into a form not deposited by ultracentrifugation.

Project description:Delipidated dogfish rectal-gland Na++K+-ATPase (Na++K+-dependent adenosine triphosphatase), almost devoid of hydrolytic activity, is able to bind about 2nmol of ADP/mg of protein. The "affinity" of delipidated enzyme for ADP is not affected by K+ in concentrations that greatly decrease the "affinity" of native Na++K+-ATPase. The K+-sensitivity of the ADP binding is in part restored by relipidation with dioleoyl phosphatidylcholine.

Project description:1. A particulate Na(+)+K(+)-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase preparation obtained by treatment of bovine cerebral microsomes with a sodium iodide reagent has been further treated with acid anhydrides likely to convert amino groups into acidic derivatives. 2. The extent of acylation of amino groups was determined by reaction of the remaining amino groups with 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulphonic acid. The unmodified preparation contains about 1.2 muequiv. of amino groups/mg of protein of which only about 0.5 muequiv. are accounted for by protein amino groups. Kinetics of the trinitrobenzenesulphonic acid reaction with the unmodified preparation are complex and are altered by ATP or ouabain. 3. The compounds examined cause loss of Na(+)+K(+)-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase activity when relatively few amino groups are modified but ATP was found to afford partial protection against inactivation by methylmaleic anhydride. Na(+)+K(+)-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase activity is partly restored to the dimethylmaleylated preparation by hydrolysis of the dimethylmaleyl-amide bonds but not if more than about 20% of the amino groups have been acylated. 4. Supernatants obtained by high-speed centrifugation of the dimethylmaleylated preparation contained up to 45% of the total protein with less than 10% of the total phospholipid. Methylmaleyl and benzenetricarboxylyl derivatives of the enzyme preparation behaved similarly but tetrafluorosuccinylated material was almost entirely deposited by centrifugation.

Project description:1. The Na(+)-plus-K(+)-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase [(Na(+),K(+))-ATPase] of microsomal preparations from ox brain was inactivated or diminished in activity by exposure to 2-8m-urea. Similar concentrations of urea diminished the turbidity of the suspensions. 2. Low concentrations (about 2.5mm) of NaATP with the urea gave partial or complete protection of the ATPase, without altering the concomitant change in turbidity. Some protection of the (Na(+),K(+))-ATPase was afforded by tris ATP, but the greatest protection was found with NaATP and in its presence the change in (Na(+),K(+))-ATPase with 3m-urea included a phase in which activity was enhanced by 40%. 3. The protective effect was specific to NaATP: KATP, NaADP, NaAMP and sodium pyrophosphate were without protective effect and in some cases they augmented the action of urea. 4. The turbidity of cerebral microsomal suspensions was diminished also by ultrasonic irradiation; NaATP did not alter this change. After ultrasonic treatment up to 55% of the protein and of the ATPase activity were no longer deposited by centrifugal forces of 4.5x10(6)g-min. 5. Ultrasonic treatment and centrifugation could be carried out with little or no loss of ATPase and ammonium sulphate flocculation of the supernatant then afforded in the first material precipitated a three- to five-fold enrichment of (Na(+),K(+))-ATPase activity. 6. Sodium borohydride and dimethyl sulphoxide also diminished the turbidity of the microsomal fraction but enrichment of the ATPase was not effected by these reagents; ten other compounds were without action on the ATPase. 7. Acetyl phosphate was hydrolysed by the microsomal preparation and this activity was increased by added K(+). Acetyl-phosphatase activity persisted in the ultrasonically treated and ammonium sulphate-fractionated preparations, which were more exacting in their requirements for K(+). 8. The findings are discussed in relation to the mechanism of the (Na(+),K(+))-ATPase.

Project description:A Mg(2+)+Na(+)+K(+)-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) preparation was isolated from rat ventral prostate by flotation of microsomal membranes in high-density sucrose solutions. The reaction medium for optimum Na(+)+K(+)-stimulated ATPase activity was found to be: Na(+), 115mm; K(+), 7-10mm; Mg(2+), 3mm; ATP, 3mm; tris buffer, pH7.4 at 38 degrees , 20mm. The average DeltaP(i) (Mg(2+)+Na(+)+K(+) minus Mg(2+)+Na(+)) was 9mumoles/mg. of protein/hr., representing a 30% increase over the Mg(2+)+Na(+)-stimulated ATPase activity. At high concentrations, K(+) was inhibitory to the enzyme activity. Half-maximal inhibition of Na(+)+K(+)-stimulated ATPase activity was elicited by ouabain at 0.1mm. The preparation exhibited phosphatase activity towards ribonucleoside triphosphates other than ATP. However, stimulation of P(i) release by Na(+)+K(+) was observed only with ATP as substrate. The apparent K(m) for ATP for Na(+)+K(+)-stimulated activity was about 0.3x10(-3)m. Ca(2+) inhibited only the Na(+)+K(+)-stimulated ATPase activity. Mg(2+) could be replaced by Ca(2+) but then no Na(+)+K(+) stimulation of ATPase activity was noticed. The addition of testosterone or dihydrotestosterone (17beta-hydroxy-5alpha-androstan-3-one) in vitro at 0.1-10mum under a variety of experimental conditions did not significantly increase the Na(+)+K(+)-stimulated ATPase activity. The enzyme preparations from prostates of orchidectomized rats, however, exhibited a drastic decrease in the specific activity of Na(+)+K(+)-stimulated ATPase; these changes were prevented in the orchidectomized rats by injection of testosterone propionate.

Project description:The K+-stimulated ATPase associated with the purified gastric microsomal fraction can be completely inactivated by treatment with 15% (v/v) ethanol for 60s at 37 degrees C, but not at 25 degrees C. Sequential exposure of the microsomal fraction to 15% ethanol at 25 degrees C and 37 degrees C caused release of 2.5% and 2.9% of the total membrane phospholipids respectively. Restoration of the enzyme activity was achieved by sonication with phosphatidylcholine in the presence of Mg2+, K+ and ATP, which were essential for the reconstitution. Our data suggest that the phospholipids extracted by 15% ethanol at 37 degrees C are derived primarily from the immediate lipid environment of the enzyme, and ATP, together with the metal ions, helps the partially delipidated enzyme to retain the appropriate configuration for the subsequent reconstitution.

Project description:The subunit makeup of the family of adenosine triphosphate-sensitive potassium channel (KATP) channels is more complex and labile than thought. The growing association of Kir6.1 and SUR2 variants with specific cardiovascular electrical and contractile derangements and the clear association with Cantu syndrome establish the importance of appropriate activity in normal function of the heart and vasculature. Further studies of such patients will reveal new mutations in KATP subunits and perhaps in proteins that regulate KATP synthesis, trafficking, or location, all of which may ultimately benefit therapeutically from the unique pharmacology of KATP channels.

Project description:1. An ATPase (adenosine triphosphatase) preparation obtained from pig brain microsomes by treatment with sodium iodide showed four apparently different ouabain-sensitive activities under various conditions. They were (a) ouabain-sensitive Mg(2+)-stimulated ATPase, (b) K(+)-stimulated ATPase, (c) (Na(+),K(+))-stimulated ATPase and (d) Na(+)-stimulated ATPase activities. 2. These activities showed the same substrate specificity, ATP being preferentially hydrolysed and CTP slightly. AMP was not hydrolysed. 3. These activities were inhibited by low concentration of ouabain. The concentration producing 50% inhibition was 0.1mum for ouabain-sensitive Mg(2+)-stimulated ATPase, 0.2mum for K(+)-stimulated ATPase, 0.1mum for (Na(+),K(+))-stimulated ATPase and 0.003mum for Na(+)-stimulated ATPase activity. 4. The ouabain-sensitive ATPase activities were inactivated by N-ethylmaleimide but the insensitive ATPase activity was not. 5. The three ouabain-sensitive ATPase activities were inhibited about 50% by 1mm-Ca(2+), whereas the ouabain-sensitive Mg(2+)-stimulated ATPase activity was activated by the same concentration of Ca(2+). The preparation was treated with ultrasonics at 20kcyc./sec. The 2min. ultrasonic treatment inactivated the ATPase activities by 50%. 7. The temperature coefficient Q(10) was 6.6 for K(+)-stimulated ATPase activity, 3.7 for (Na(+),K(+))-stimulated ATPase and 2.6 for Na(+)-stimulated ATPase. 8. Organic solvents inactivated the ATPase activities, to which treatment the K(+)-stimulated ATPase was the most resistant. 9. The phosphorylation of the enzyme preparation became less dependent on Na(+) with decreasing pH. This Na(+)-independent phosphorylation at low pH was sensitive to K(+) and hydroxylamine as well as the Na(+)-dependent phosphorylation at neutral pH.
