When the heat-activated chloroplast F1 ATPase hydrolyzes [3H, gamma-32P]ATP, followed by the removal of medium ATP, ADP, and Pi, the enzyme has labeled ATP, ADP, and Pi bound to it in about equal amounts. The total of the bound [3H]ADP and [3H]ATP approaches 1 mol/mol of enzyme. Over a 30-min period, most of the bound [32P]Pi falls off, and the bound [3H]ATP is converted to bound [3H]ADP. Enzyme with such remaining tightly bound ADP will form bound ATP from relatively high concentrations of medium Pi with either Mg2+ or Ca2+ present. The tightly bound ADP is thus at a site that retains a catalytic capacity for slow single-site ATP hydrolysis (or synthesis) and is likely the site that participates in cooperative rapid net ATP hydrolysis. During hydrolysis of 50 microM [3H]ATP in the presence of either Mg2+ or Ca2+, the enzyme has a steady-state level of about one bound [3H]ADP per mole of enzyme. Because bound [3H]ATP is also present, the [3H]ADP is regarded as being present on two cooperating catalytic sites. The formation and levels of bound ATP, ADP, and Pi show that reversal of bound ATP hydrolysis can occur with either Ca2+ or Mg2+ present. They do not reveal why no phosphate oxygen exchange accompanies cleavage of low ATP concentrations with Ca2+ in contrast to Mg2+ with the heat-activated enzyme. Phosphate oxygen exchange does occur with either Mg2+ or Ca2+ present when low ATP concentrations are hydrolyzed with the octyl glucoside activated ATPase. Ligand binding properties of Ca2+ at the catalytic site rather than lack of reversible cleavage of bound ATP may underlie lack of oxygen exchange under some conditions.  相似文献

Recent results suggest consideration of a new concept for oxidative phosphorylation in which a prime function of energy is to bring about release of ATP formed at the catalytic site by reversal of hydrolysis. Data with submitochondrial particles include properties of an uncoupler insensitive Pi=HOH exchange, a rapid reversible formation of bound ATP in presence of uncouplers, and predictable patterns of 32-Pi incorporation into ATP in rapid mixing experiments. ADP is confirmed as the primary Pi acceptor in mitochondrial ATP synthesis, but with chloroplasts ADP is also rapidly labeled. Other findings with pyrophosphatase and with transport ATPase harmonize with the new concept. Measurements of the reversal of ATP cleavage and binding by myosin suggest that oxygen exchanges result from reversible cleavage of ATP to ADP and Pi at the catalytic site and that the principal free energy change in ATP cleavage occurs in ATP binding. Reversal of conformational changes accompanying ATP binding and cleavage is proposed to drive the actin filament in contraction. Thus energy transductions linked to ATP in both mitochondria and muscle may occur primarily through protein conformational change.  相似文献

Bicarbonate, an activating anion of ATP hydrolysis, inhibited ATP synthesis coupled to succinate oxidation in beef heart submitochondrial particles but diminished the lag time and increased the steady-state velocity of the (32)Pi-ATP exchange reaction. The latter effects exclude the possibility that bicarbonate is inducing an intrinsic uncoupling between ATP hydrolysis and proton translocation at the level of F(1)F(o) ATPase. The inhibition of ATP synthesis was competitive with respect to ADP at low fixed [Pi], mixed at high [Pi] and non-competitive towards Pi at any fixed [ADP]. From these results we can conclude that (i) bicarbonate does not bind to a Pi site in the mitochondrial F(1); (ii) it competes with the binding of ADP to a low-affinity site, likely the low-affinity non-catalytic nucleotide binding site. It is postulated that bicarbonate stimulates ATP hydrolysis and inhibits ATP synthesis by modulating the relative affinities of the catalytic site for ATP and ADP.  相似文献

Under steady state photophosphorylating conditions, each ATP synthase complex from spinach thylakoids contains, at a catalytic site, about one tightly bound ATP molecule that is rapidly labeled from medium 32Pi. The level of this bound [32P]ATP is markedly reduced upon de-energization of the spinach thylakoids. The reduction is biphasic, a rapid phase in which the [32P] ATP/synthase complex drops about 2-fold within 10 s, followed by a slow phase, kobs = 0.01/min. A decrease in the concentration of medium 32Pi to well below its apparent Km for photophosphorylation is required to decrease the amount of tightly bound ATP/synthase found just after de-energization and before the rapid phase of bound ATP disappearance. The [32P]ATP that remains bound after the rapid phase appears to be mostly at a catalytic site as demonstrated by a continued exchange of the oxygens of the bound ATP with water oxygens. This bound [32P]ATP does not exchange with medium Pi and is not removed by the presence of unlabeled ATP. The levels of tightly bound ADP and ATP arising from medium ADP were measured by a novel method based on use of [beta-32P]ADP. After photophosphorylation and within minutes after the rapid phase of bound ATP loss, the measured ratio of bound ADP to ATP was about 1.4 and the sum of bound ADP plus ATP was about 1/synthase. This ratio is smaller than that found about 1 h after de-energization. Hence, while ATP bound at catalytic sites disappears, bound ADP appears. The results suggest that during and after de-energization the bound ATP disappears from the catalytic site by hydrolysis to bound ADP and Pi with subsequent preferential release of Pi. These and related observations can be accommodated by the binding change mechanism for ATP synthase with participation of alternating catalytic sites and are consistent with a deactivated state arising from occupancy of one catalytic site on the synthase complex by an inhibitory ADP without presence of Pi.  相似文献

We have studied the kinetics of "unisite" ATP hydrolysis and synthesis in seven mutant Escherichia coli F1-ATPase enzymes. The seven mutations are distributed over a 105-residue segment of the catalytic nucleotide-binding domain in beta-subunit and are: G142S, K155Q, K155E, E181Q, E192Q, M209I, and R246C. We report forward and reverse rate constants and equilibrium constants in all seven mutant enzymes for the four steps of unisite kinetics, namely (i) ATP binding/release, (ii) ATP hydrolysis/synthesis, (iii) Pi release/binding, and (iv) ADP release/binding. The seven mutant enzymes displayed a wide range of deviations from normal in both rate and equilibrium constants, with no discernible common pattern. Notably, steep reductions in Kd ATP were seen in some cases, the value of Kd Pi was high, and K2 (ATP hydrolysis/synthesis) was relatively unaffected. Significantly, when the data from the seven mutations were combined with previous data from two other E. coli F1-beta-subunit mutations (D242N, D242V), normal E. coli F1, soluble and membranous mitochondrial F1, it was found that linear free energy relationships obtained for both ATP binding/release (log k+1 versus log K1) and ADP binding/release (log k-4 versus log K-4). Two conclusions follow. 1) The seven mutations studied here cause subtle changes in interactions between the catalytic nucleotide-binding domain and substrate ATP or product ADP. 2) The mitochondrial, normal E. coli, and nine total beta-subunit mutant enzymes represent a continuum in which subtle structural differences in the catalytic site resulted in changes in binding energy; therefore insights into the nature of energy coupling during ATP hydrolysis and synthesis by F1-ATPase may be ascertained by detailed studies of this group of enzymes.  相似文献

The mechanism of ATP hydrolysis by the solubilized mitochondrial ATPase (MF1) has been studied under conditions where catalytic turnover occurs at one site, uni-site catalysis (obtained when enzyme is in excess of substrate), or at two sites, bi-site catalysis (obtained when substrate is in excess of enzyme). Pulse-chase experiments support the conclusion that the sites which participate in bi-site catalysis are the same as those which participate in uni-site catalysis. Upon addition of ATP in molar excess to MF1, label that was bound under uni-site conditions dissociates at a rate equal to the rate of bi-site catalysis. Similarly, when medium ATP is removed, label that was bound under bi-site conditions dissociates at a rate equal to the rate of uni-site catalysis. Evidence that a high affinity catalytic site equivalent to the one observed under uni-site conditions participates as an intermediate in bi-site catalysis includes the demonstration of full occupancy of a catalytically competent site during steady-state turnover at nanomolar concentrations of ATP. Improved measurements of the interaction of ADP at a high affinity catalytic site have lead to the revision of several of the rate constants that define uni-site catalysis. The rate constant for unpromoted dissociation of ADP is equal to that for Pi (4 X 10(-3) s-1). The rate of binding ADP at a high affinity chaseable site (Kd = 1 nM) is equal to the rate of binding ATP (4 X 10(6) M-1 s-1). The rate of catalysis obtained when substrate binding at one site promotes product release from an adjacent site (bi-site catalysis) is up to 100,000-fold faster than unpromoted product release (uni-site catalysis).  相似文献

Whether the tightly bound ADP that can cause a pronounced inhibition of ATP hydrolysis by the chloroplast ATP synthase and F1 ATPase (CF1) is bound at catalytic sites or at noncatalytic regulatory sites or both has been uncertain. We have used photolabeling by 2-azido-ATP and 2-azido-ADP to ascertain the location, with Mg2+ activation, of tightly bound ADP (a) that inhibits the hydrolysis of ATP by chloroplast ATP synthase, (b) that can result in an inhibited form of CF1 that slowly regains activity during ATP hydrolysis, and (c) that arises when low concentrations of ADP markedly inhibit the hydrolysis of GTP by CF1. The data show that in all instances the inhibition is associated with ADP binding without inorganic phosphate (Pi) at catalytic sites. After photophosphorylation of ADP or 2-azido-ADP with [32P]Pi, similar amounts of the corresponding triphosphates are present on washed thylakoid membranes. Trials with appropriately labeled substrates show that a small portion of the tightly bound 2-azido-ATP gives rise to covalent labeling with an ATP moiety at noncatalytic sites but that most of the bound 2-azido-ATP gives rise to covalent labeling by an ADP moiety at a catalytic site. We also report the occurrence of a 1-2-min delay in the onset of the Mg2+-induced inhibition after addition of CF1 to solutions containing Mg2+ and ATP, and that this delay is not associated with the filling of noncatalytic sites. A rapid burst of Pi formation is followed by a much lower, constant steady-state rate.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Addition of dimethyl sulfoxide promotes the formation of enzyme-bound ATP from medium Pi by mitochondrial F1 adenosinetriphosphatase that has tightly bound ADP present. Measurements are reported of medium Pi in equilibrium H18OH exchange and of the dependence of formation of enzyme-bound ATP on Pi concentration. Attainment of an apparent equilibrium between medium Pi and bound ATP requires longer than 30 min, even though the rates of Pi binding and release after apparent equilibrium is reached would suffice for a faster approach to equilibrium. Slow protein conformational changes or other unknown modulating factors may be responsible for the slow rate of bound ATP formation. After apparent equilibrium is reached, each Pi that binds to the enzyme reversibly forms ATP about 50 times before being released to the medium. The rate of interconversion of bound ATP to bound ADP and Pi is much slower than that in the absence of dimethyl sulfoxide as measured with sufficiently low ATP concentrations so that single-site catalysis is favored. Although the interconversion rate is slowed, the equilibrium constant for bound ATP formation from bound ADP and Pi is not far from unity. Dimethyl sulfoxide favors the formation of enzyme-bound ATP by promoting the competent binding of Pi to enzyme with ADP bound at a catalytic site rather than by promoting formation of bound ATP from bound ADP and Pi.  相似文献

(1) Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) markedly inhibited the Vmax of multisite ATPase activity in Escherichia coli F1-ATPase at concentrations greater than 30% (v/v). Vmax/KM was reduced by 2 orders of magnitude in 40% (v/v) DMSO at pH 7.5, primarily due to reduction of Vmax. The inhibition was rapidly reversed on dilution into aqueous buffer. (2) KdATP at the first, high-affinity catalytic site was increased 1500-fold from 2.3 x 10(-10) to 3.4 x 10(-7) M in 40% DMSO at pH 7.5, whereas KdADP was increased 3.2-fold from 8.8 to 28 microM. This suggests that the high-affinity catalytic site presents a hydrophobic environment for ATP binding in native enzyme, that there is a significant difference between the conformation for ADP binding as opposed to ATP binding, and that the ADP-binding conformation is more hydrophilic. (3) Rate constants for hydrolysis and resynthesis of bound ATP in unisite catalysis were slowed approximately 10-fold by 40% DMSO; however, the equilibrium between bound Pi/bound ATP was little changed. The reduction in catalysis rates may well be related to the large increase in KdATP (less constrained site). (4) Significant Pi binding to E. coli F1 could not be detected either in 40% DMSO or in aqueous buffer using a centrifuge column procedure. (5) We infer, on the basis of the measured constants KaATP, K2 (hydrolysis/resynthesis of ATP), k+3 (Pi release), and KdADP and from estimates of k-3 (Pi binding) that delta G for ATP hydrolysis in 40% DMSO-containing pH 7.5 buffer is between -9.2 and -16.8 kJ/mol.  相似文献

Sulfate is a partial inhibitor at low and a non-essential activator at high [ATP] of the ATPase activity of F(1). Therefore, a catalytically-competent ternary F(1) x ATP x sulfate complex can be formed. In addition, the ANS fluorescence enhancement driven by ATP hydrolysis in submitochondrial particles is also stimulated by sulfate, clearly showing that the ATP hydrolysis in its presence is coupled to H(+) translocation. However, sulfate is a strong linear inhibitor of the mitochondrial ATP synthesis. The inhibition was competitive (K (i) = 0.46 mM) with respect to Pi and mixed (K (i) = 0.60 and K'(i) = 5.6 mM) towards ADP. Since it is likely that sulfate exerts its effects by binding at the Pi binding subdomain of the catalytic site, we suggest that the catalytic site involved in the H(+) translocation driven by ATP hydrolysis has a more open conformation than the half-closed one (beta(HC)), which is an intermediate in ATP synthesis. Accordingly, ATP hydrolysis is not necessarily the exact reversal of ATP synthesis.  相似文献

In medium containing 40% dimethylsulfoxide, soluble F1 catalyzes the hydrolysis of ATP introduced at concentrations lower than that of the enzyme [Al-Shawi, M.K. & Senior, A.E. (1992), Biochemistry 31, 886-891]. At this concentration of dimethylsulfoxide, soluble F1 also catalyzes the spontaneous synthesis of a tightly bound ATP to a level of approximately 0.15 mol per mol F1 [Gómez-Puyou, A., Tuena de Gómez-Puyou, M. & de Meis, L. (1986) Eur. J. Biochem. 159, 133-140]. The mechanisms that allow soluble F1 to carry out these apparently opposing reactions were studied. The rate of hydrolysis of ATP bound to F1 under uni-site conditions and that of synthesis of ATP were markedly similar, indicating that the two ATP molecules lie in equivalent high affinity catalytic sites. The number of enzyme molecules that have ATP at the high affinity catalytic site under conditions of synthesis or uni-site hydrolysis is less than the total number of enzyme molecules. Therefore, it was hypothesized that when the enzyme was treated with dimethylsulfoxide, a fraction of the F1 population carried out synthesis and another hydrolysis. Indeed, measurements of the two reactions under identical conditions showed that different fractions of the F1 population carried out simultaneously synthesis and hydrolysis of ATP. The reactions continued until an equilibrium level between F1.ADP + Pi <--> F1.ATP was established. At equilibrium, about 15% of the enzyme population was in the form F1.ATP. The DeltaG degrees of the reaction with 0.54 microM F1, 2 mM Pi and 10 mM Mg2+ at pH 6.8 was -2.7 kcal.mol-1 in favor of F1.ATP. The DeltaG degrees of the reaction did not exhibit important variations with Pi concentration; thus, the reaction was in thermodynamic equilibrium. In contrast, DeltaG degrees became significantly less negative as the concentration of dimethylsulfoxide was decreased. In water, the reaction was far to the left. The equilibrium constant of the reaction diminished linearly with an increase in water activity. The effect of solvent is fully reversible. In comparison to other enzymes, F1 seems unique in that solvent controls the equilibrium that exists within an enzyme population. This results from the effect of solvent on the partition of Pi between the catalytic site and the medium, and the large energetic barrier that prevents release of ATP from the catalytic site. In the presence of dimethylsulfoxide and Pi, ATP is continuously hydrolyzed and synthesized with formation and uptake of Pi from the medium. This process is essentially an exchange reaction analogous to the phosphate-ATP exchange reaction that is catalyzed by the ATP synthase in coupled energy transducing membranes.  相似文献

After isolation and purification, the H+-ATPase from chloroplasts, CF0F1, contains one endogenous ADP at a catalytic site, and two endogenous ATP at non-catalytic sites. Incubation with 2-azido-[alpha-32P]ADP leads to tight binding of azidonucleotides. Free nucleotides were removed by three consecutive passages through centrifugation columns, and upon UV-irradiation most of the label was covalently bound. The labelled enzyme was digested by trypsin, the peptides were separated by ion exchange chromatography into nitreno-AMP, nitreno-ADP and nitreno-ATP labelled peptides, and these were then separated by reversed phase chromatography. Amino acid sequence analysis was used to identify the type of the nucleotide binding site. After incubation with 2-azido-[alpha-32P]ADP, the covalently bound label was found exclusively at beta-Tyr-362. Incubation conditions with 2-azido-[alpha-32P]ADP were varied, and conditions were found which allow selective binding of the label to different catalytic sites, designated as 1, 2 and 3 in order of decreasing affinity for ADP, and either catalytic site 1 or catalytic sites 1 and 2 together were labelled. For measurements of the degree of inhibition by covalent modification, CF0F1 was reconstituted into phosphatidylcholine liposomes, and the membranes were energised by an acid-base transition in the presence of a K+/valinomycin diffusion potential. The rate of ATP synthesis was 50-80 s(-1), and the rate of ATP hydrolysis was 15 s(-1) measured under multi-site conditions. Covalent modification of either catalytic site 1 or catalytic sites 1 and 2 together inhibited ATP synthesis and ATP hydrolysis equally, the degree of inhibition being proportional to the degree of modification. Extrapolation to complete inhibition indicates that derivatisation of catalytic site 1 leads to complete inhibition when 1 mol 2-nitreno-ADP is bound per mol CF0F1. Derivatisation of catalytic sites 1 and 2 together extrapolates to complete inhibition when 2 mol 2-nitreno-ADP are bound per CF0F1. The rate of ATP synthesis and the rate of ATP hydrolysis were measured as a function of the substrate concentration from multi-site to uni-site conditions with derivatised CF0F1 and with non-derivatised CF0F1. ATP synthesis and ATP hydrolysis under uni-site and under multi-site condition were inhibited by covalent modification of either catalytic site 1 or catalytic sites 1 and 2 together. The results indicate that derivatisation of site 1 inhibits activation of the enzyme and that cooperative interactions occur at least between the catalytic sites 2 and 3.  相似文献

The ATPase from the ATP synthase of the thermophilic bacterium PS3 (TF1), unlike F1 ATPase from other sources, does not retain bound ATP, ADP, and Pi at a catalytic site under conditions for single-site catalysis [Yohda, M., & Yoshida, M. (1987) J. Biochem. 102, 875-883]. This raised a question as to whether catalysis by TF1 involved alternating participation of catalytic sites. The possibility remained, however, that there might be transient but catalytically significant retention of bound reactants at catalytic sites when the medium ATP concentration was relatively low. To test for this, the extent of water oxygen incorporation into Pi formed by ATP hydrolysis was measured at various ATP concentrations. During ATP hydrolysis at both 45 and 60 degrees C, the extent of water oxygen incorporation into the Pi formed increased markedly as the ATP concentration was lowered to the micromolar range, with greater modulation observed at 60 degrees C. Most of the product Pi formed arose by a single catalytic pathway, but measurable amounts of Pi were formed by a pathway with high oxygen exchange. This may result from the presence of some poorly active enzyme. The results are consistent with sequential participation of three catalytic sites on the TF1 as predicted by the binding change mechanism.  相似文献

Inactivation of the isolated ATPase portion of ATP synthase from beef-heart mitochondria (F1) by its natural inhibitor protein (IP) during steady-state ATP hydrolysis is accompanied by a trapping of 1 mol nucleotide/mol F1 in one of the catalytic sites. The trapped nucleotide is not released during incubation of IP-inhibited F1 in the presence of MgATP at pH 8.0 for at least 20 min, indicating a very low turnover rate of the IP.F1 complex. The ATP/ADP ratio of the trapped nucleotides is higher than that found for transitorily bound nucleotides under the same conditions but in the absence of IP. The IP impairs the acceleration of ATP hydrolysis and product release steps that results from the binding of ATP to an alternate catalytic site. It also inhibits ATP hydrolysis by a single catalytic site or shifts the equilibrium toward ATP formation from bound ADP and Pi. At high pH, an active acidic form of the free IP is transformed to the inactive basic one with a half-time of 3-4 s. This process seems to be prevented by IP binding to F1. The inactive basic form of IP does not compete with the active acidic IP for the binding to F1. The data do not favor the existence of a long-lived catalytically active IP.F1 intermediate during IP action on F1. The reactivation of IP-inhibited membrane-bound F1 by energization may be due to a conformational change in the IP.F1 complex allowing the transformation of IP into an inactive basic state that rapidly dissociates.  相似文献

The H(+)-ATPase from chloroplasts, CF(0)F(1), was isolated and purified. The enzyme contained one endogenous ADP at a catalytic site, and two endogenous ATP at non-catalytic sites. Incubation with 2-azido-[alpha-(32)P]AD(T)P leads to a tight binding of the azido-nucleotides. Free nucleotides were removed by three consecutive passages through centrifugation columns, and after UV-irradiation, the label was covalently bound. The labelled enzyme was digested by trypsin, the peptides were separated by ion exchange chromatography into nitreno-AMP, nitreno-ADP and nitreno-ATP labelled peptides, and these were then separated by reversed phase chromatography. Amino acid sequence analysis was used to identify the type of the nucleotide binding site. After incubation with 2-azido-[alpha-(32)P]ADP, the covalently bound label was found exclusively at beta-Tyr-362, i.e. binding occurs only to catalytic sites. Incubation conditions with 2-azido-[alpha-(32)P]ADP were varied, and conditions were found which allow selective binding of the label to different catalytic sites, either to catalytic site 2 or to catalytic site 3. For measurements of the degree of inhibition by covalent modification, CF(0)F(1) was reconstituted into phosphatidylcholine liposomes, and the membranes were energised by an acid-base transition in the presence of a K(+)/valinomycin diffusion potential. The rate of ATP synthesis was 120 s(-1), and the rate of ATP hydrolysis was 20 s(-1), both measured under multi-site conditions. Covalent modification of either catalytic site 2 or catalytic site 3 inhibited both ATP synthesis and ATP hydrolysis, the degree of inhibition being proportional to the degree of modification. Extrapolation to complete inhibition indicates that modification of one catalytic site, either site 2 or site 3, is sufficient to completely block multi-site ATP synthesis and ATP hydrolysis. The rate of ATP synthesis and the rate of ATP hydrolysis were measured as a function of the substrate concentration from multi-site to uni-site conditions with covalently modified CF(0)F(1) and with non-modified CF(0)F(1). The result was that uni-site ATP synthesis and ATP hydrolysis were not inhibited by covalent modification of either catalytic site 2 or site 3. The results indicate cooperative interactions between catalytic nucleotide binding sites during multi-site catalysis, whereas neither uni-site ATP synthesis nor uni-site ATP hydrolysis require interaction with other sites.  相似文献

Submitochondrial particles from beef heart, washed with dilute solutions of KCl so as to activate the latent, membrane-bound ATPase, F1, may be used to study single site catalysis by the enzyme. [gamma-32P]ATP, incubated with a molar excess of catalytic sites, a condition which favors binding of substrate in only a single catalytic site on the enzyme, is hydrolyzed via a four-step reaction mechanism. The mechanism includes binding in a high affinity catalytic site, Ka = 10(12)M-1, a hydrolytic step for which the equilibrium constant is near unity, and two product release steps in which Pi dissociates from catalytic sites about 10 times more rapidly than ADP. Catalysis by the membrane-bound ATPase also is characterized by a 10(6)-fold acceleration in the rate of net hydrolysis of [gamma-32P]ATP, bound in the high affinity catalytic site, that occurs when substrate is made available to additional catalytic sites on the enzyme. These aspects of the reaction mechanism of the ATPase of submitochondrial particles closely parallel the reaction mechanism determined for solubilized, homogeneous F1 (Grubmeyer, C., Cross, R. L., and Penefsky, H. S. (1982) J. Biol. Chem. 257, 12092-12100). The finding that removal of the enzyme from the membrane does not significantly alter the properties of single site catalysis lends support to models of ATP synthesis in oxidative phosphorylation, catalyzed by membrane-bound F1, that have been based on the study of the soluble enzyme.  相似文献

Hydrolysis of acetyl phosphate is inhibited by high concentrations of Pi and MgCl2, probably due to an increase in the steady-state level of phosphoenzyme formed from Pi in the medium. A dual effect of ADP during steady-state hydrolysis of acetyl phosphate was observed. ADP inhibited hydrolysis in the presence of 5 mM MgCl2 and no added Pi, whereas it stimulated hydrolysis when phosphoenzyme formation by Pi was favored by including 6 mM Pi and 20 mM MgCl2 in the assay medium. ATP inhibited acetyl phosphate hydrolysis in both of these assay media. When phosphoenzyme formation by Pi in the presence of acetyl phosphate was stimulated at Ca2+ concentrations sufficient to saturate the low-affinity Ca2+-binding sites, ADP stimulated acetyl phosphate hydrolysis and also promoted ATP synthesis by reversal of the catalytic cycle. The rate of ATP synthesis was dependent on ADP, Pi and Ca2+. Phosphoenzyme formation by Pi and MgCl2, whether in the absence of Ca2+ and acetyl phosphate, or during acetyl phosphate hydrolysis, was inhibited by ADP and ATP. These results suggest that ADP interacts with different intermediates of the catalytic cycle and that expression of inhibition or activation of acetyl phosphate hydrolysis depends on the steady-state level of phosphoenzyme formed by Pi.  相似文献

The binding of one ADP molecule at the catalytic site of the nucleotide depleted F1-ATPase results in a decrease in the initial rate of ATP hydrolysis. The addition of an equimolar amount of ATP to the nucleotide depleted F1-ATPase leads to the same effect, but, in this case, inhibition is time dependent. The half-time of this process is about 30 s, and the inhibition is correlated with Pi dissociation from the F1-ATPase catalytic site (uni-site catalysis). The F1-ATPase-ADP complex formed under uni-site catalysis conditions can be reactivated in two ways: (i) slow ATP-dependent ADP release from the catalytic site (tau 1/2 20 s) or (ii) binding of Pi in addition to MgADP and the formation of the triple F1-ATPase-MgADP-Pi complex. GTP and GDP are also capable of binding to the catalytic site, however, without changes in the kinetic properties of the F1-ATPase. It is proposed that ATP-dependent dissociation of the F1-ATPase-GDP complex occurs more rapidly, than that of the F1-ATPase-ADP complex.  相似文献

The three catalytic sites of the F(O)F(1) ATP synthase interact through a cooperative mechanism that is required for the promotion of catalysis. Replacement of the conserved alpha subunit Arg-376 in the Escherichia coli F(1) catalytic site with Ala or Lys resulted in turnover rates of ATP hydrolysis that were 2 x 10(3)-fold lower than that of the wild type. Mutant enzymes catalyzed hydrolysis at a single site with kinetics similar to that of the wild type; however, addition of excess ATP did not chase bound ATP, ADP, or Pi from the catalytic site, indicating that binding of ATP to the second and third sites failed to promote release of products from the first site. Direct monitoring of nucleotide binding in the alphaR376A and alphaR376K mutant F(1) by a tryptophan in place of betaTyr-331 (Weber et al. (1993) J. Biol. Chem. 268, 20126-20133) showed that the catalytic sites of the mutant enzymes, like the wild type, have different affinities and therefore, are structurally asymmetric. These results indicate that alphaArg-376, which is close to the beta- or gamma-phosphate group of bound ADP or ATP, respectively, does not make a significant contribution to the catalytic reaction, but coordination of the arginine to nucleotide filling the low-affinity sites is essential for promotion of rotational catalysis to steady-state turnover.  相似文献

Characteristics of the exchange reactions catalyzed by beef heart submitochondrial particles give new insight into energy transducing steps of oxidative phosphorylation. The uncoupler-insensitive portion of the total Pi in equilibrium HOH exchange in presence of ATP, ADP, and Pi is the intermediate Pi in equilibrium HOH exchange, that is the exchange occurring with Pi formed by hydrolysis of ATP prior to release of Pi from the catalytic site. The exchange of medium Pi with HOH is as sensitive to uncouplers as the Pi in equilibrium ATP exchange and net oxidative phosphorylation, demonstrating a requirement of an uncoupler-sensitive energized state, probably a transmembrane potential or proton gradient, for bringing medium Pi to the reactive state. The covalent bond forming and breaking step at the catalytic site (ADP + Pi in equilibrium ATP + HOH) appears relatively insensitive to uncouplers. Thus to the extent that uncouplers dissipate transmembrane proton-motive force, it is unlikely that such a force is used to drive ATP formation by direct protonations of Pi oxygens. When only Pi and ADP are added and formation of ATP from added ADP by adenylate kinase and subsequent ATP hydrolysis are adequately blocked, no Pi in equilibrium HOH exchange can be observed, demonstrating a requirement of energization by ATP binding and cleavage for such an exchange. This uncoupler-insensitive energization is suggested to represent a conformationally energized state that can be used reversibly to develop a transmembrane protonmotive force accompanying ADP and Pi release. Rates of various exchanges as estimated by improved procedures are compatible with all oxygen exchanges occurring by dynamic reversal of ATP hydrolysis at the catalytic site.  相似文献
