Influence of temperature acclimatization on the ionic activation of goldfish intestinal adenosine triphosphatase.

ABSTRACT: 1. An adenosine triphosphatase membrane system, dependent on Mg(2+) and activated further by Na(+)+K(+), was prepared from goldfish anterior intestine by differential centrifugation of homogenized intestinal scrapings. 2. The affinity of this preparation for Na(+) in the presence of K(+)+Mg(2+), for K(+) in the presence of Na(+)+Mg(2+) and for Mg(2+) alone, measured at 37 degrees , did not depend on the previous environmental temperature of the fish. When Na(+)+K(+) were added to preparations from 8 degrees -acclimatized fish the affinity for Mg(2+) increased; this was not seen with preparations from 30 degrees -acclimatized fish. 3. Part of the Mg(2+)-activated adenosine triphosphatase was inhibited by Na(+) and the amount of inhibition appeared to increase at high acclimatization temperatures. 4. This Na(+)-inhibited adenosine triphosphatase was separated from the (Na(+)+K(+))-activated enzyme by centrifugation on sucrose density gradients. 5. Preparations from 8 degrees -acclimatized fish contained less Mg(2+)-activated and more (Na(+)+K(+))-activated adenosine triphosphatase than did similar fractions from 30 degrees -acclimatized fish. 6. Acclimatization to different environmental temperatures might involve one form of adenosine triphosphatase changing to another. The origin of various membranes seen in microsomal fractions must, however, be established before this hypothesis can be tested further.

Influence of temperature acclimatization on the temperature-dependence and ouabain-sensitizing of goldfish intestinal adenosine triphosphatase.

Project description:1. Homogenates of goldfish intestinal mucosa were separated into various fractions by differential centrifugation. Both adenosine-triphosphatase and beta-glycerophosphatase activities were found to be concentrated mainly in a membrane fraction which sedimented after 1200000g-min. 2. This membrane adenosine-triphosphatase system was activated by Na(+)+K(+) and inhibited by ouabain. 3. The ouabain-sensitive adenosine-triphosphatase activity was high and the ouabain-insensitive activity low in membrane fractions prepared from fish acclimatized previously to 8 degrees . The opposite was true for fish acclimatized to 30 degrees . 4. The Arrhenius plots of ouabain-sensitive and ouabain-insensitive adenosine-triphosphatase activities, measured from 5 degrees to 30 degrees , showed discontinuities at incubation temperatures that varied with the previous acclimatization temperature of the fish. 5. It is considered that modification of the membrane adenosine-triphosphatase system in goldfish intestinal mucosa may serve to regulate Na(+) transport at different environmental temperatures.

Effect of temperature acclimatization on the fatty acid composition of goldfish intestinal lipids.

Project description:1. The fatty acid composition of whole goldfish, whole-intestinal mucosa, intestinal mucosal membranes and individual phospholipids extracted from mucosal membranes were measured, fish adapted to different temperatures being used. 2. Alterations of the adaptation temperature did not noticeably affect the fatty acid composition of the whole-fish lipids, but there were marked changes in the fatty acids of lipids extracted from homogenates of goldfish intestinal mucosa. These changes were more pronounced in a membrane fraction prepared from these homogenates. Raising the adaptation temperature by 20 degrees C halved the percentage of C(20:1), C(20:4) and C(22:6) fatty acids and nearly doubled the percentage of C(18:0) and C(20:3) fatty acids recovered. 3. Choline phosphoglycerides constituted about one-half and ethanolamine phosphoglycerides about one-quarter of the total membrane phospholipids. 4. The fatty acids of choline and ethanolamine phosphoglycerides were more susceptible to temperature-dependent changes than were the phosphoglycerides of inositol or serine. 5. The increase in C(18:0) fatty acid that occurred in membranes of warm-adapted fish was greatest for ethanolamine phosphoglycerides, but increases also occurred in other phospholipid fractions and in membrane neutral lipids.

Temperature-dependence of activation and inhibition of rat-brain adenosine triphosphatase activated by sodium and potassium ions.

Project description:1. The adenosine-triphosphatase activity of rat-brain microsomes was measured between 0 degrees and 37 degrees . The stimulatory effect of Na(+) plus K(+) on the Mg(2+)-dependent adenosine-triphosphatase activity decreased sharply with decreasing temperature and became negligible at 0 degrees . An Arrhenius plot drawn from the experimental data showed two discontinuities: one at about 6 degrees and the other at about 20 degrees . 2. The increment in activity induced by Na(+) plus K(+) was more sensitive to oligomycin at lower than at higher temperatures, but the opposite was observed for ouabain. The action of oligomycin showed a biphasic character, since below a certain concentration it caused slight activation of Na(+)-plus-K(+)-activated adenosine triphosphatase. 3. Where oligomycin increased the activity of the enzyme, it also enhanced the accumulation of an acid-precipitable phosphorylated compound formed through the transfer of the gamma-phosphate group of [(32)P]ATP to the enzyme system. Stimulatory concentrations of oligomycin did not interfere with K(+)-mediated dephosphorylation of the intermediate, though high concentrations of oligomycin counteracted the effect of K(+). 4. The temperature profile of K(+)-stimulated microsomal phosphatase qualitatively resembled that of microsomal adenosine triphosphatase.

Polarizable molecular dynamics simulations of ionic liquids: Influence of temperature control.

Project description:Ionic liquids are an interesting class of soft matter with viscosities of one or two orders of magnitude higher than that of water. Unfortunately, classical, non-polarizable molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of ionic liquids result in too slow dynamics and demonstrate the need for explicit inclusion of polarizability. The inclusion of polarizability, here via the Drude oscillator model, requires amendments to the employed thermostat, where we consider a dual Nosé-Hoover thermostat, as well as a dual Langevin thermostat. We investigate the effects of the choice of a thermostat and the underlying parameters such as the masses and force constants of the Drude particles on static and dynamic properties of ionic liquids. Here, we show that Langevin thermostats are not suitable for investigating the dynamics of ionic liquids. Since polarizable MD simulations are associated with high computational costs, we employed a self-developed graphics processing unit enhanced code within the MD program CHARMM to keep the overall computational effort reasonable.

Erythrocytes retain hypoxic adenosine response for faster acclimatization upon re-ascent.

Project description:Faster acclimatization to high altitude upon re-ascent is seen in humans; however, the molecular basis for this enhanced adaptive response is unknown. We report that in healthy lowlanders, plasma adenosine levels are rapidly induced by initial ascent to high altitude and achieved even higher levels upon re-ascent, a feature that is positively associated with quicker acclimatization. Erythrocyte equilibrative nucleoside transporter 1 (eENT1) levels are reduced in humans at high altitude and in mice under hypoxia. eENT1 deletion allows rapid accumulation of plasma adenosine to counteract hypoxic tissue damage in mice. Adenosine signalling via erythrocyte ADORA2B induces PKA phosphorylation, ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of eENT1. Reduced eENT1 resulting from initial hypoxia is maintained upon re-ascent in humans or re-exposure to hypoxia in mice and accounts for erythrocyte hypoxic memory and faster acclimatization. Our findings suggest that targeting identified purinergic-signalling network would enhance the hypoxia adenosine response to counteract hypoxia-induced maladaptation.

Thermal denaturation of Micrococcus lysodeikticus adenosine triphosphatase. Influence of temperature on the circular dichroism, fluroescence and enzymic activity of the protein.

Project description:The soluble ATPase (adenosine triphosphatase) from Micrococcus lysodeikticus underwent a major unfolding transition when solutions of the enzyme at pH 7.5 were heated. The midpoint occurred at 46 degrees C when monitored by changes in enzymic activity and intrinsic fluorescence, and at 49 degrees C when monitored by circular dichroism. The products of thermal denaturation retained much secondary structure, and no evidence of subunit dissociation was detected after cooling at 20 degrees C. The thermal transition was irreversible, and thiol groups were not involved in the irreversibility. The presence of ATP, adenylyl imidodiphosphate, CaCl2 or higher concentrations of ATPase conferred stability against thermal denaturation, but did not prevent the irreversibility one denaturation had taken place. In the presence of guanidinium chloride, thermal denaturation occurred at lower temperatures. The midpoints of the transition were 45 degrees C in 0.25 M-, 38 degrees C in 0.5 M-and 30 degrees C in 0.75 M-denaturant. In the highest concentration of guanidinium chloride a similar unfolding transition induced by cooling was observed. Its midpoint was 9 degrees C, and the temperature of maximum stability of the protein was 20 degrees C. The discontinuities occurring the the Arrhenius plots of the activity of this enzyme had no counterpart in variations in the far-u.v. circular dichroism or intrinsic fluorescence of the protein at the same temperature.

Differential effects of temperature on a membrane adenosine triphosphatase and associated phosphatase.

Project description:Arrhenius plots of a membrane (Na+ + K+)-dependent ATPase (adenosine triphosphatase) activity showed characteristic discontinuities, whereas those of the associated K+-dependent phosphatase activity did not. These findings support the contention that the phosphatase activity does not depend on phospholipid in the same way as does the ATPase activity.

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.

Synonymous mutation in adenosine triphosphatase copper-transporting beta causes enhanced exon skipping in Wilson disease.

Project description:Wilson disease (WD) is caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in adenosine triphosphatase copper-transporting beta (ATP7B); however, genetic testing identifies only one or no pathogenic ATP7B variant in a number of patients with WD. Synonymous single-nucleotide sequence variants have been recognized as pathogenic in individual families. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the prevalence and disease mechanism of the synonymous variant c.2292C>T (p.Phe764=) in WD. A cohort of 280 patients with WD heterozygous for a single ATP7B variant was investigated for the presence of c.2292C>T (p.Phe764=). In this cohort of otherwise genetically unexplained WD, the allele frequency of c.2292C>T (p.Phe764=) was 2.5% (14 of 560) compared to 7.1 × 10-6 in the general population (2 of 280,964 in the Genome Aggregation Database; p < 10-5 ; Fisher exact test). In an independent United Kingdom (UK) cohort, 2 patients with WD homozygous for p.Phe764= were identified. RNA analysis of ATP7B transcripts from patients homozygous or heterozygous for c.2292C>T and control fibroblasts showed that this variant caused high expression of an ATP7B transcript variant lacking exon 8. Conclusion: The synonymous ATP7B variant c.2292C>T (p.Phe764=) causes abnormal messenger RNA processing of ATP7B transcripts and is associated with WD in compound heterozygotes and homozygotes.

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

Project description: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.
