The kinetics of reversible inactivation of chloroplast CF1-ATPase by Mg2+ and ADP was studied. The rate of inactivation obeys the first-order equation and is independent of ADP concentration. An analysis of the dependence of the inactivation rate on Mg2+ concentration demonstrated that the limiting step of inactivation is other than Mg2+ binding, i.e. the subsequent steps which include, in all probability, the conformational changes of the enzyme. The original Mg2+-dependent activity of CF1-ATPase is close to that observed under steady-state conditions in the presence of sulphate and methanol and exceeds the Ca2+-dependent activity approximately 6-fold. Preincubation of CF1-ATPase with Mg2+ results in inhibition of the original activity of the enzyme. This effect is not removed by addition of the ATP-regenerating system (pyruvate kinase + phosphoenol pyruvate) to the preincubation medium but is diminished by sulphite and the non-hydrolyzed analog of ATP--beta, gamma-methyladenosine-5-triphosphate. After addition of AMPPCP to the reaction mixture the initial reaction rate is decreased, while the steady-state rate is increased. It may be concluded that the Mg2+-dependent inactivation of CF1-ATPase is induced by the tightly bound ADP. The latter can be replaced by ATP, which in contrast to ADP does not form an inactive complex with the enzyme. A comparison of experimental results with literature data suggests that the mechanism of "alternating sites" proposed by Boyer et al. for ATP hydrolysis by soluble CF1-ATPase is not realized under the given experimental conditions.  相似文献

The covalent binding of dialdehyde derivatives of ATP and ADP (o-ATP and o-ADP) results in inactivation of chloroplast CF1-ATPase, the degree of inactivation being increased at a rise in temperature and pH. o-ADP causes predominant inhibition of the Mg2+-dependent, while o-ATP--of both Mg2+- and Ca2+-dependent activities of CF1-ATPase. The substrates and reaction products prevent the enzyme inactivation, whereas the stimulators of the Mg2+-dependent ATPase activity enhance it. The effect of these stimulators is correlated with predominant incorporation of [3H] o-nucleotide into the beta-subunit of CF1. In the absence of the stimulators o-ADP is predominantly bound to the alpha-subunit of CF1. The binding of o-ADP and o-ATP to the beta-subunit is increased in the presence of Mg2+. A comparative analysis of the labelled nucleotides incorporation into individual subunits and the changes in the catalytic and regulatory properties of the enzyme demonstrated that the catalytic and stimulator-sensitive "regulatory" sites of the enzyme are located on the beta-subunits.  相似文献

The recent finding that the presence of ATP at non-catalytic sites of chloroplast F1-ATPase (CF1) is necessary for ATPase activity (Milgrom, Y. M., Ehler, L. L., and Boyer, P. D. (1990) J. Biol. Chem. 265,18725-18728) prompted more detailed studies of the effect of noncatalytic site nucleotides on catalysis. CF1 containing at noncatalytic sites less than one ADP or about two ATP was prepared by heat activation in the absence of Mg2+ and in the presence of ADP or ATP, respectively. After removal of medium nucleotides, the CF1 preparations were used for measurement of the time course of nucleotide binding from 10 to 100 microM concentrations of 3H-labeled ADP, ATP, or GTP. The presence of Mg2+ strongly promotes the tight binding of ADP and ATP at noncatalytic sites. For example, the ADP-heat-activated enzyme in presence of 1 mM Mg2+ binds ADP with a rate constant of 0.5 x 10(6) M-1 min-1 to give an enzyme with two ADP at noncatalytic sites with a Kd of about 0.1 microM. Upon exposure to Mg2+ and ATP the vacant noncatalytic site binds an ATP rapidly and, as an ADP slowly dissociates, a second ATP binds. The binding correlates with an increase in the ATPase activity. In contrast the tight binding of [3H]GTP to noncatalytic sites gives an enzyme with no ATPase activity. The three noncatalytic sites differ in their binding properties. The noncatalytic site that remains vacant after the ADP-heat-activated CF1 is exposed to Mg2+ and ADP and that can bind ATP rapidly is designated as site A; the site that fills with ATP as ADP dissociates when this enzyme is exposed to Mg2+ and ATP is called site B, and the site to which ADP remains bound is called site C. Procedures are given for attaining CF1 with ADP at sites B and C, with GTP at sites A and/or B, and with ATP at sites A, B, and/or C, and catalytic activities of such preparations are measured. For example, little or no ATPase activity is found unless ATP is at site A, but ADP can remain at site C with no effect on ATPase. Maximal GTPase activity requires ATP at site A but about one-fifth of maximal GTPase is attained when GTP is at sites A and B and ATP at site C. Noncatalytic site occupancy can thus have profound effects on the ATPase and GTPase activities of CF1.  相似文献

The catalytic part of chloroplast thylakoid ATPase, the chloroplast coupling factor CF1, is reversibly inactivated during incubation in the presence of Mg2+. The inactivation has two phases. Its fast phase occurs at basic pH of the incubation medium (k = 6 min-1), while the slow phase ( k = 0.1-0.2 min-1) depends on pH only slightly throughout the studied range (5.5-9.0). As followed from changes in the inactivation effect of magnesium ions, Mg2+ affinity for the enzyme decreases dramatically with decreasing medium pH. The pH-dependence of Mg2+ dissociation apparent constant suggests that the binding/dissociation equilibrium is determined by protonation/deprotonation of specific acid-base groups of the enzyme. The analysis of pH-dependence plots gives the equilibrium constant of magnesium dissociation (3-9 M) and the dissociation constant of the protonated groups pK 5.8-6.7). Sodium azide is known to stabilize the inactive CF1-MgADP complex; when added to the incubation medium it diminishes the Mg2+ dissociation constant and has no effect on the dissociation constant of the acid-base groups. At lower pH, Mg2+-inactivated CF1-ATPase reactivates. Octyl glucoside accelerates the reactivation, while Triton-100 affects it only slightly. The reactivation rate of membrane-bound CF1 (thylakoid ATPase) inactivated by preincubation with Mg2+ in the presence of gramicidin is a few times higher than that of isolated CF1. These results suggest that the reactivation of isolated and membrane-bound CF1-ATPase is determined by protonation of a limited number of acid-base groups buried in the enzyme molecule.  相似文献

Effect of Cl and HCO3- ions on the Mg2+ -ATPase activity of the plasma membrane of bream brain was investigated. Cl- (5 or 10 mM) and HCO3- (1-5 mM) individually have low effect on the "basal" Mg2+ -ATPase. Simultaneous presence of Cl- and HCO3- in the incubation medium significantly increased the enzyme activity. Maximum effect of anions on the enzyme is observed in the presence of Cl- (approximately 7 mM) and HCO3- (approximately 3 mM). Br- can replace Cl- under joint effect with HCO3-, while I- has half maximum activity compared with Cl-. Bicuculline (7 microM) inhibits completely the joint effect of Cl- and HCO3- on the enzyme, while it has no effect on the "basal" Mg2+ -ATPase activity. SH-reagents (5, 5-dithiobis-2-nitrobenzoic acid, N-ethylmaleimide), oligomycine and orthovanadate inhibited the Cl-, HCO3- -activated Mg2+ -ATPase. The obtained results demonstrated that Mg2+ -ATPase of the bream brain sensitive to GABAergic ligands at a fixed concentrations of Cl- and HCO3- ions in the incubation medium is Cl-, HCO3- -activated by Mg2+ -ATPase, whose activity meets a number of requirements to the system which may be involved by GABAA receptors in the Cl-/HCO3- -exchange processes.  相似文献

The characteristics and specificity of inactivation of the chloroplast F1-ATPase (CF1) with 7-chloro-4-nitrobenzofurazan (Nbf-Cl) have been investigated. Inactivation of the octylglucoside-dependent Mg2+-ATPase activity of latent CF1 by Nbf-Cl can be correlated with the formation of about 1.2 mol of Nbf-O-Tyr per mole of enzyme. Following inactivation of CF1 with [14C]Nbf-Cl, polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate revealed that the majority of the radioactive reagent incorporated is present in the beta subunit. Treatment of the enzyme with [14C]Nbf-Cl following dithiothreitol heat activation, led to similar labeling of the beta subunit and substantial incorporation of 14C into the gamma subunit. On complete inactivation, about 4 mol of Nbf-S-Cys is formed per mole of dithiothreitol-heat-activated CF1. Incorporation of 14C into the gamma subunit is prevented by prior treatment of the latent CF1 or of the dithiothreitol-heat-activated CF1 with iodoacetamide. Following incubation of the dithiothreitol-heat-activated CF1 with iodoacetamide, complete inactivation of the octylglucoside-dependent Mg2+-ATPase activity by Nbf-Cl can be correlated with the formation of about 1.2 mol of Nbf-O-Tyr per mole of enzyme. After stabilization of the [14C]Nbf-O-Tyr derivative by treatment with sodium dithionite, a labeled peptide was purified. Automatic Edman degradation of this peptide revealed the sequence V-X-V-P-A-D-(D). The majority of the radioactivity was cleaved in the second cycle, the position occupied in CF1 by Tyr-beta-328, which is homologous to Tyr-beta-311, the residue reactive with Nbf-Cl in the beef heart mitochondrial F1-ATPase. When CF1, modified at Tyr-beta-328 with Nbf-Cl, is incubated at pH 9.0, the Nbf-O-Tyr adduct is hydrolyzed, leading to concomitant recovery of the ATPase activity. In double labeling experiments, two-dimensional isoelectric focusing in the presence of urea followed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate indicates that 2-azido-ADP, covalently bound at the tight ADP binding site, and the tyrosine modified by [14C]Nbf-Cl are located in different beta subunits.  相似文献

The structure of vanadate, a phosphate analogue which was suggested to function in the presence of tightly bound ADP and divalent cations as a transition state inhibitor of CF1-ATPase, was investigated by X-ray absorption spectroscopy. Analysis of the vanadium K-edge was used for determination of the structure of vanadate bound to a single site in CF1-ATPase containing a single tightly bound ADP. There was a decrease in the intensity of the 1s-3d pre-edge transition and a change in the shape of two other shoulders at the edge region upon binding of vanadate to CF1 in the presence of Mg2+ ions. The changes are due to alteration in the structure of vanadium from tetrahedral to a five-coordinated trigonal bipyramidal geometry. Comparison of the pre-edge peak intensity of ADP-vanadate complex, and model compound resolved by crystallography support the proposed structure of CF1-bound vanadate. 51V NMR measurements were used to verify the pentacoordinated structure of ADP-vanadate complex used as a model in the X-ray absorption studies. The inhibition of a single and multiple site activity by vanadate and by MgADP was measured. Vanadate inhibition of CF1-ATPase activity decreased more than 90 fold in the presence of MgADP. A differential specificity of the inhibition in single and multiple mode of activity was observed. It is suggested that ADP-vanadate binds to the active sites of the enzyme as a pentacoordinated vanadium having approximate trigonal bipyramidal geometry. This structure is analogous to the proposed transition state of the phosphate during the synthesis and the hydrolysis of ATP by CF1.  相似文献

The activation of the ATPase activity of coupling factor 1 (CF1) from chloroplasts by several detergents was studied. Further evidence that detergent micelles are important in the activation of Ca2+-ATPase was obtained. Maximal activation of CA2+-ATPase was achieved with short-chain alkyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside (alkylglucosides) detergents. Treatment of CF1 with hexylglucoside or heptylglucoside followed by hydroxylapatite chromatography caused nearly total removal of the epsilon subunit of the enzyme, whereas treatment with decylglucoside caused less ATPase activation and less loss of the epsilon subunit. The ATPase activity of detergent-activated CF1 was inhibited by purified epsilon subunit. Detergents that form small micelles appear to be most effective in removing the epsilon subunit and in activating the Ca2+-ATPase of CF1. When present during assay, the alkylglucosides also induce a Mg2+-ATPase activity in CF1. Octyl- and nonylglucoside are most effective in promoting this reaction. If, however, CF1 deficient in the epsilon subunit was used, even decylglucoside elicited rapid Mg2+-ATPase hydrolysis. It is concluded that removal of the epsilon subunit, although necessary for the expression of Mg2+-ATPase, is not sufficient. The detergents that cause maximal displacement of the epsilon subunit are less effective in inducing Mg2+-ATPase activity. The selective removal of subunits from CF1 by specific detergents points to potential problems with the use of these detergents in the solubilization of oligomeric membrane proteins.  相似文献

Washing thylakoid membranes with 1 M LiCl causes the release of the beta subunit from the chloroplast energy transducing complex (CF1.CF0) in spinach chloroplasts. This protein purifies by size exclusion chromatography as a 180-kDa aggregate and, thus, is probably composed of a trimer of beta polypeptides. The purified aggregate binds ADP to a high and a low affinity site with dissociation constants of 15 and 202 microM, respectively. Mg2+ is required for ADP to bind to both sites. Manganese binds to the protein in a cooperative manner to at least two sites with high affinity. The beta subunit preparation catalyzes Mg2+-dependent ATP hydrolysis at rates which are comparable to other subunit-deficient CF1 preparations and is increased by treatments known to activate the Mg2+-ATPase activity of CF1. However, Ca2+ is not an effective cofactor for this reaction and treatments which activate the Ca2+-ATPase of CF1 are either ineffective or inhibitory.  相似文献

The participation of Mg2+ and Ca2+ in complicated mechanisms of Na+, K(+)-ATPase regulation is discussed in the survey. The regulatory actions of Mg2+ on Na+, K(+)-ATPase such as its participation in phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of the enzyme, ADP/ATP-exchange inhibition, cardiac glycosides and vanadate binding with the enzyme, conformational changes induction during ATPase cycle are reviewed in detail. Some current views of mechanisms of above mentioned Mg2+ regulatory effects are discussed. The experimental evidence of Ca2+ immediate influence on the functional activity of Na+, K(+)-ATPase (catalytic, transport and glycoside-binding) are given. It's noted that these effects are based on the conformational changes in the enzyme and also on the phase transition in membrane induced by Ca2+. Unimmediate action of Ca2+ on Na+, K(+)-ATPase is also discussed, especially due to its effect on other membrane systems functionally linked with Na(+)-pump (for instance, due to Na+/Ca(+)-exchanger activation). It's concluded that Mg2+ and Ca2+ as "universal regulators" of the cell effectively influence the functional activity and conformational states of Na+, K(+)-ATPase.  相似文献

3'-O-(4-Benzoyl)benzoyl ADP (BzADP) was used as a photoaffinity label for covalent binding of adenine nucleotide analogs to the nucleotide binding site(s) of the thermophilic bacterium PS3 ATPase (TF1). As with the CF1-ATPase (Bar-Zvi, D. and Shavit, N. (1984) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 765, 340-356) noncovalently bound BzADP is a reversible inhibitor of the TF1-ATPase. BzADP changes the kinetics of ATP hydrolysis from noncooperative to cooperative in the same way as ADP does, but, in contrast to the effect on the CF1-ATPase, it has no effect on the Vmax. In the absence of Mg2+ 1 mol BzADP binds noncovalently to TF1, while with Mg2+ 3 mol are bound. Photoactivation of BzADP results in the covalent binding of the analog to the nucleotide binding site(s) on TF1 and correlates with the inactivation of the ATPase. Complete inactivation of the TF1-ATPase occurs after covalent binding of 2 mol BzADP/mol TF1. Photoinactivation of TF1 by BzADP is prevented if excess of either ADP or ATP is present during irradiation. Analysis by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate of the Bz[3H]ADP-labeled TF1-ATPase shows that all the radioactivity is incorporated into the beta subunit.  相似文献

On the soluble part of the coupling factor (CF1), extracted from spinach chloroplasts, three nucleotide-binding sites are identified. Three ADP are bound per CF1 when the enzyme is incubated with ADP either with or without Mg2+. Two ADP and one ATP are bound per CF1 when the enzyme is incubated with a limiting concentration of ATP, in the presence of Mg2+. At high ATP concentration, in the presence of Mg2+, one free ATP exchanges with one bound ADP and two ATP and one ADP remain bound per CF1. When Mg2+ is omitted from the incubation medium of ATP and CF1, only two ADP and around 0.5 ATP are bound per CF1. The three nucleotide binding sites of CF1 fall into two different and independent categories according to the ability of the bound nucleotides to be exchanged with free nucleotides. On one site the bound ADP is difficult to exchange. On the other two sites, the bound nucleotides. ADP or ATP, are readily exchangable. We propose that the two exchangeable sites form the catalytic part of the enzyme where ATP is hydrolyzed. When ATP concentration is high enough, in the presence of Mg2+, one ATP displaces one bound ADP and allows the ATP hydrolysis to proceed. We propose too that the site where ADP is difficult to exchange may represent the 'tight' ADP-binding site, different from the catalytic ones, which becomes exchangeable on the CF1 in vivo when the thylakoid membranes are energized by light, as stressed by Bickel-Sandk?tter and Strotman [(1976) FEBS Lett. 65, 102-106].  相似文献

The specific activity of the Mg2+-ATPase and the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase has been measured in a microsomal fraction from pig antral smooth muscle with the phosphate-release assay and the NADH-coupled enzyme assay, and the release of inorganic phosphate as a function of time is compared with the concomitant production of ADP. Both assays are found to overestimate the true Mg2+-ATPase activity. The adenylate kinase inhibitor P1,P5-di(adenosine-5'-)pentaphosphate (Ap5A) reduces the specific activity of the Mg2+-ATPase measured in the NADH-coupled enzyme assay to about half of its original value; however, it does not affect the specific activity of the Mg2+-ATPase in the Pi-release assay. The considerable overestimation of the Mg2+-ATPase activity in the NADH-coupled enzyme assay results from a combined action of an ATP pyrophosphatase (ATP in equilibrium AMP + PPi) and adenylate kinase activity contaminating the microsomes. The adenylate kinase activity in the microsomes catalyses the conversion of AMP formed by the ATP pyrophosphatase together with ATP into two ADP's. Also the phosphate-release assay is prone to an overestimation artefact because an inorganic pyrophosphatase will degrade the pyrophosphate and thus lead to additional Pi-production. Measurements of AMP and NAD+ production by HPLC confirmed our proposed reaction scheme. The same (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity is found in both assays, because the (Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase activity is calculated from the difference in ATPase activity in the presence and absence of Ca2+, so that as a consequence the interfering activities are automatically subtracted.  相似文献

1. A membrane vesicle fraction containing a high (K+ + H+)-ATPase activity was isolated from porcine gastric mucosa. The enzyme has a pH optimum of 7.0 and is stimulated by T1+, K+, Rb+ and NH4+ with KA values of 0.13, 2.7, 7.6 and 26 mM, respectively, at this pH. 2. Incubation of the isolated membrane fraction with butanedione leads to inactivation of the (K+ + H+)-ATPase activity. The pH-dependence of the (K+ + H+)-ATPase activity. The pH-dependence of the inactivation and the reversibility of the reaction, observed after removal of excess butanedione and borate, indicate that modification of arginine is involved. 3. The inactivation of (K+ + H+)-ATPase activity by butanedione is time-dependent and follows second-order kinetics. From the dependence of the inactivation rate on the reagent concentration it appears that a single arginine residue is involved in the inactivation of the (K+ + H+)-ATPase activity. 4. ATP, deoxy-ATP, ADP and adenylyl imidodiphosphate (AMPPNP), but not CTP, GTP and ITP which are poor substrates, protect the enzyme against butanedione inactivation, suggesting that the essential arginine residue is located in the ATP binding centre. 5. In the presence of Mg2+ the butanedione inactivation is increased, and the protection by ATP, deoxy-ATP and ADP (but not that by AMPPNP) is less pronounced. This suggests that Mg2+ induces a conformational change in the enzyme, exposing the arginine group and coinciding with phosphorylation and subsequent release of ADP from its binding site.  相似文献

Mg2+ is known to be a potent inhibitor of F1 ATPases from various sources. Such inhibition requires the presence of a tightly bound ADP at a catalytic site. Results with the spinach chloroplast F1 ATPase (CF1) show that the time delays of up to 1 min or more in the induction or the relief of the inhibition are best explained by a slow binding and slow release of Mg2+ rather than by slow enzyme conformational changes. CF1 is known to have multiple Mg2+ binding sites with Kd values in the micromolar range. The inhibitory Mg2+ and ADP can bind independently to CF1. When Mg2+ and ATP are added to the uninhibited enzyme, a relatively fast rate of hydrolysis attained soon after the addition is followed by a much slower steady-state rate. The inhibited steady-state rate results from a slowly attained equilibrium of binding of medium Mg2+. The Kd for the binding of the inhibitory Mg2+ is in the range of 1-8 microM, in the presence or absence of added ATP, as based on the extent of rate inhibition induced by Mg2+. Assessments from 18O exchange experiments show that the binding of Mg2+ is accompanied by a relatively rapid change to an enzyme form that is incapable of hydrolyzing MgATP. When ATP is added to the Mg2+- and ADP-inhibited enzyme, the resulting reactivation can be explained by MgATP binding to an alternate catalytic site which results in a displacement of the tightly bound ADP after a slow release of Mg2+. Both an increase in temperature (to 50 degrees C) and the presence of activating anions such as bicarbonate or sulfite reduce the extent of the Mg2+ inhibition markedly. The activating anions may bind to CF1 in place of Pi near the ADP. Whether the inhibitory Mg2+ binds at catalytic or noncatalytic nucleotide binding sites or at another location is not known. The Mg2(+)- and ADP-induced inhibition appears to be a general property of F1 ATPases, which show considerable differences in affinity for ADP, Mg2+, and Pi. These differences may reflect physiological control functions.  相似文献

The evidence is presented that the ADP- and Mg(2+)-dependent inactivation of MF1-ATPase during MgATP hydrolysis requires binding of ATP at two binding sites: one is catalytic and the second is noncatalytic. Binding of the noncatalytic ATP increases the rate of the inactive complex formation in the course of ATP hydrolysis. The rate of the enzyme inactivation during ATP hydrolysis depends on the medium Mg2+ concentration. High Mg2+ inhibits the steady-state activity of MF1-ATPase by increasing the rate of formation of inactive enzyme-ADP-Mg2+ complex, thereby shifting the equilibrium between active and inactive enzyme forms. The Mg2+ needed for MF1-ATPase inactivation binds from the medium independent from the MgATP binding at either catalytic or noncatalytic sites. The inhibitory ADP molecule arises at the MF1-ATPase catalytic site as a result of MgATP hydrolysis. Exposure of the native MF1-ATPase with bound ADP at a catalytic site to 1 mM Mg2+ prior to assay inactivates the enzymes with kinact 24 min-1. The maximal inactivation rate during ATP hydrolysis at saturating MgATP and Mg2+ does not exceed 10 min-1. The results show that the rate-limiting step of the MF1-ATPase inactivation during ATP hydrolysis with excess Mg2+ precedes binding of Mg2+ and likely is the rate of formation of enzyme with ADP bound at the catalytic site without bound P(i). This complex binds Mg2+ resulting in inactive MF1-ATPase.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Isolated chloroplast ATP synthase (CF0F1) was used for determination of the structure-function relation by measuring the effect of divalent metal ions on the properties of ATPase. Mg2+ ions were more efficient catalysts than Ca2+ ions as indicated by Kcat/Km of 55.2 and 5.4, respectively. Other activity parameters related to binding, such as the Km of MATP and Ki of MADP, indicated a stronger binding in the presence of Mg2+ as seen from a Mg2+/Ca2+ ratio of 2.8 and 3.8, respectively. Strong binding of Ca2+ ions with a Kd of 0.03 +/- 00.6 microM-1 was detected only in the presence of ADP probably because of the positive interactive effect of CaADP as indicated in the inhibition properties. Mg2+ ions were more efficient catalysts also in other forms of the enzyme such as in the thylakoid membrane, in isolated CF0F1 and in CF1. The Mg2+/Ca2+ ratio of Kcat/Km was 5.3, 10.2 and 1.5 for the thylakoid membrane enzyme, the isolated CF0F1 and the soluble CF1 respectively. This indicated that Ca2+ ions became less efficient catalysts in the more intact and integrated enzyme while Mg2+ ions were as efficient in all forms of the enzyme. Unlike Mg2+, Ca2+ ions also did not support proton-coupled ATP synthesis and ATP driven proton pumping. It is suggested that the differences in the ligand structure of these two ions might be the reason for the differential function. An average 0.3 A shorter bond length of octahedral first coordination in Ca2+ ions caused a weaker binding of CaATP than that of MgATP. The effect of differential binding is discussed in relation to the binding of the transition state intermediate and to the rate of product release.  相似文献

The ATPase activity of purified coupling factor 1 (CF1) of spinach chloroplasts [EC 3.6.1.3] was reversibly enhanced in some aqueous organic solvents, notably methanol, ethanol, and acetone. Pretreatment of CF1 with 20% (v/v) methanol did not affect the subsequent activity. The activity depended entirely on the final concentration of methanol in the reaction mixture. In the presence of 20% methanol, the Km of Ca2+-ATPase from ATP was lowered from 0.4 mM to 0.2 mM. Not only Ca2+, but also Cd2+, Mg2+, Mn2+, and Zn2+ supported the ATPase activity at rates of higher than 7 mumol.mg protein-1 . min-1. Co2+, Ni2+, and Pb2+ supported the activity at rates of 0.5-1.0 mumol.mg protein-1 . min-1. The activities supported by the following cations, if any, were less than 0.2 mumol.mg protein-1 . min-1; Ba2+, Cu2+, Fe2+, Hg2+, Sn2+, and Sr2+. The optimum concentration of methanol for Ca2+-ATPase and Mg2+-ATPase activities was about 30% (v/v). The optimum pH values for Ca2+-ATPase and Mg2+-ATPase activities were about 8.0 and 8.8, respectively. The enhancing effect of organic solvents appears to be associated with their relative lipophilic character as defined by the octanol-water partition coefficient. The Ca2+-ATPase activities of th trypsin-activated and the heat-activated CF1 were inhibited and their Mg2+-ATPase activities were enhanced by the presence of methanol in the reaction mixture.  相似文献

The presence of ATP at non-catalytic sites of the chloroplast F1-ATPase (CF1) eliminates a considerable lag in onset of enzyme activity that otherwise occurs in the presence of bicarbonate [Milgrom, Y. M., Ehler, L. & Boyer, P. D. (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 11551-11558]. Sulfite is known to be much more effective than bicarbonate in stimulating ATPase activity CF1. Results reported here show that when assayed in the presence of sulfite, CF1, with some non-catalytic sites empty or filled with GT(D)P, is able to hydrolyze both ATP and GTP. Thus, the presence of adenine nucleotides at non-catalytic sites is not necessary for catalytic turnover of CF1. However, even though CF1 with empty non-catalytic sites shows a significant initial activity, the prior binding of adenine nucleotides at non-catalytic site(s) results in further activation of MgATPase and MgGTPase activities, even at relatively high sulfite and substrate concentrations. Although extensive activation of CF1 results from the presence of sulfite, with or without nucleotide binding at non-catalytic sites, the Km remains constant, at about 50 microM for MgATP and 400 microM for MgGTP. The results obtained show that the ATPase activity of CF1 is determined by the fraction of the active enzyme. The inactive CF1.ADP.Mg2+ formed during MgATP hydrolysis can be rapidly trapped by azide to provide a measure of the fraction of inactive enzyme. Increasing the concentration of sulfite increases the fraction of active CF1 in the assay medium. Measurements with radioactively labeled nucleotides show that the presence of ATP at non-catalytic sites promotes the ATP-dependent release of inhibitory ADP from a catalytic site. The activating effect of ATP binding at non-catalytic sites results from increasing the portion of CF1 in an active state during steady-state ATP hydrolysis.  相似文献

A Mg2+-induced change of the (Na+ and K+)-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase (Na+,K+)-ATPase) from Electrophorus electricus was investigated by kinetics and fluorescence techniques. Binding of Mg2+ to a low affinity site(s) caused inhibition of (Na+,K+)-ATPase activity, an effect which was antagonized by both Na+ and ATP. Mg2+ also caused inhibition of K+-dependent dephosphorylation of the enzyme without inhibiting either (Na+)-ATPase activity or Na+-dependent phosphorylation. Mg2+ also induced a 5 to 6% enhancement in the fluorescence intensity of enzyme labeled with the fluorescent sulfhydryl reagent, 2-(4-maleimidylanilino)naphthalene-6-sulfonate. As in the case of Mg2+ inhibition of activity, the affinity for Mg2+ as an inducing agent for this effect was significantly reduced by both Na+ and ATP, suggesting that the same change was being monitored in both cases. The Mg2+ effect was reduced by both Na+ and ATP, suggesting that the same change was being monitored in both cases. The Mg2+ effect was reduced in magnitude by ouabain and prevented by oligomycin, specific inhibitors of the enzyme. In addition, K+ (and cations that substitute for K+ in supporting activity) induced a 3 to 4% enhancement in fluorescence intensity in the presence of Na+, Mg2+, and ATP, although the K+ and Mg2+ effects appeared to be different on the basis of their excitation spectra. The K+ effect was inhibited by ouabain and occurred with a rate greater than the rate of turnover of the enzyme, permitting its involvement in the catalytic cycle.  相似文献
