In the absence of ATP the sarcoplasmic reticulum ATPase (SERCA) binds two Ca(2+) with high affinity. The two bound Ca(2+) rapidly undergo reverse dissociation upon addition of EGTA, but can be distinguished by isotopic exchange indicating fast exchange at a superficial site (site II), and retardation of exchange at a deeper site (site I) by occupancy of site II. Site II mutations that allow high affinity binding to site I, but only low affinity binding to site II, show that retardation of isotopic exchange requires higher Ca(2+) concentrations with the N796A mutant, and is not observed with the E309Q mutant even at millimolar Ca(2+). Fluoroaluminate forms a complex at the catalytic site yielding stable analogs of the phosphoenzyme intermediate, with properties similar to E2-P or E1-P.Ca(2). Mutational analysis indicates that Asp(351), Lys(352), Thr(353), Asp(703), Asn(706), Asp(707), Thr(625), and Lys(684) participate in stabilization of fluoroaluminate and Mg(2+) at the phosphorylation site. In the presence of fluoroaluminate and Ca(2+), ADP (or AMP-PCP) favors formation of a stable ADP.E1-P.Ca(2) analog. This produces strong occlusion of Ca(2+) bound to both sites (I and II), whereby dissociation occurs very slowly even following addition of EGTA. Occlusion by fluoraluminate and ADP is not observed with the E309Q mutant, suggesting a gating function of Glu(309) at the mouth of a binding cavity with a single path of entry. This phenomenon corresponds to the earliest step of the catalytic cycle following utilization of ATP. Experiments on limited proteolysis reveal that a long range conformational change, involving displacement of headpiece domains and transmembrane helices, plays a mechanistic role.  相似文献

Protection of the Ca2+ATPase (SERCA) from proteinase K digestion has been observed following the addition of Ca2+, Mg2+, and nucleotide and interpreted as a substrate-dependent conformational change (1). The protected digestion site is located on the loop connecting the A domain and the M3 transmembrane helix. We studied by mutational analysis the protective effect of AMP-PCP, an ATP analog that is not utilized for enzyme phosphorylation. We found that the nucleotide protective effect is interfered with by single mutations of Arg-560 and Glu-439 in the N domain and Lys-352, Lys-684, Thr-353, Asp-703, and Asp-707 in the P domain. This is consistent with a transition from the open to the compact configuration of the ATPase headpiece and approximation of the N and P domains by interactions with the nucleotide adenosine and phosphate moieties, respectively. The A domain-M3 loop is consequently involved. Protection by nucleotide substrate increased following the mutations of Asp-351 (the residue undergoing phosphorylation by ATP) and neighboring Asn-706 to Ala, underlying the importance of side chain specificity in positioning the nucleotide terminal phosphate and limiting the stability of the substrate-enzyme complex. Protection is not observed when AMP-PCP is added in the absence of Ca2+ or following mutations (E771Q or N796A) that interfere with Ca2+ binding. Therefore, nucleotide binds to the Ca2+-activated enzyme in the open headpiece conformation and the consequent approximation of the N and P domains occurs while the transmembrane domain is still in the Ca2+-bound conformation. Mg2+ is not required for the protective effect of nucleotide, even though it is specifically required for the subsequent catalytic reactions.  相似文献

Reversal of the cycle of sarcoplasmic reticulum ATPase starts from ATPase phosphorylation by Pi, in the presence of Mg2+, and leads to ATP synthesis. We show here that ATP can also be synthesized when Ca2+ replaces Mg2+. In the absence of a calcium gradient and in the presence of dimethyl sulfoxide, ATPase phosphorylation from Pi and Ca2+ led to the formation of an unstable phosphoenzyme. This instability was due to a competition between the phosphorylation reaction induced by Pi and Ca2+ and the transition induced by Ca2+ binding to the transport sites, which led to a conformation that could not be phosphorylated from Pi. Dimethyl sulfoxide and low temperature stabilized the calcium phosphoenzyme, which under appropriate conditions, subsequently reacted with ADP to synthesize ATP. Substitution of Co2+, Mn2+, Cd2+, or Ni2+ for Mg2+ induced ATPase phosphorylation from Pi, giving phosphoenzymes of various stabilities. However, substitution of Ba2+, Sr2+, or Cr3+ produced no detectable phosphoenzymes, under the same experimental conditions. Our results show that ATPase phosphorylation from Pi, like its phosphorylation from ATP, does not have a strict specificity for magnesium.  相似文献

Enhanced fluorescence of the ATP analogue 2',3'-O-(2,4,6-trinitrocyclohexyldienylidine)adenosine 5'-triphosphate (TNP-ATP), bound to the Ca2+-ATPase of skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum, is closely related to phosphoenzyme levels (Bishop, J. E., Johnson, J. D., and Berman, M. C. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 15163-15171) and has an emission maximum consistent with decreased polarity of the TNP-ATP-binding site. The phosphoenzyme conformation responsible for increased nucleotide-binding site hydrophobicity has been studied by redistribution of phosphoenzyme intermediates following specific thiol group modification. N-Ethylmaleimide, in the presence of 50 microM Ca2+, 1 mM adenyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate, pH 7.0, at 25 degrees C for 30 min, selectively modified the SH group essential for phosphoenzyme decomposition, which resulted in decreased ATPase activity, Ca2+ uptake, and a decrease in ATP-induced TNP-ATP fluorescence. Phosphorylated (Ca2+, Mg2+)-ATPase levels from [gamma-32P] ATP remained relatively unaffected (3.1 nmol/mg), but the ADP-insensitive fraction decreased from 56 to 15%. Phosphoenzyme levels from 32Pi were also decreased to the same extent as turnover, with equivalent loss of Pi-induced TNP-ATP fluorescence. The E1 to E2 transition, as monitored by the change in intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence, was unaffected. Modification of thiol groups of unknown function did not modify turnover-induced TNP-ATP fluorescence. It is concluded that the ADP-insensitive phosphoenzyme, E2-P, is responsible for enhanced TNP-ATP fluorescence. This suggests that the conformational transition, 2Ca2+outE1 approximately P----2Ca2+inE2-P, is associated with altered properties of the noncatalytic, or regulatory, nucleotide-binding site.  相似文献

Sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) membranes from rabbit skeletal muscle were solubilized with a high concentration of dodecyl octaethyleneglycol monoether (C12E8) and the kinetic properties of the Ca2+,Mg2+-dependent ATPase [EC 3.6.1.3] were studied. The following results were obtained: 1. SR ATPase solubilized in C12E8 retains high ability to form phosphoenzyme ([EP] = 4--5 mol/10(6) g protein) for at least two days in the presence of 5 mM Ca2+, 0.5 M KCl, and 20% glycerol at pH 7.55. 2. The ATPase activity was dependent on both Mg2+ and Ca2+. However, the rate of E32P decay after the addition of unlabeled ATP was independent of Mg2+. 3. Most of the EP formed in the absence of Mg2+ was capable of reacting with ADP to form ATP in the backward reaction. However, in the presence of 5 mM Mg2+, the amount of ATP formed was markedly reduced without loss of the reactivity of the EP with ADP. 4. The removal of C12E8 from the ATPase by the use of Bio-Beads resulted in the full restoration of the Mg2+ dependency of the EP decomposition. 5. These results strongly suggest that in the case of SR solubilized with a high concentration of C12E8 the decomposition of phosphoenzyme is Mg2+ independent and ATP is mainly hydrolyzed through Mg2+-dependent decomposition of an enzyme-ATP complex, which is in equilibrium with phosphoenzyme and ADP.  相似文献

In order to characterize low affinity ATP-binding sites of renal (Na+,K+) ATPase and sarcoplasmic reticulum (Ca2+)ATPase, the effects of ATP on the splitting of the K+-sensitive phosphoenzymes were compared. ATP inactivated the dephosphorylation in the case of (Na+,K+)ATPase at relatively high concentrations, while activating it in the case of (Ca2+)ATPase. When various nucleotides were tested in place of ATP, inactivators of (Na+,K+)ATPase were found to be activators in (Ca2+)ATPase, with a few exceptions. In the absence of Mg2+, the half-maximum concentration of ATP for the inhibition or for the activation was about 0.35 mM or 0.25 mM, respectively. These values are comparable to the previously reported Km or the dissociation constant of the low affinity ATP site estimated from the steady-state kinetics of the stimulation of ATP hydrolysis or from binding measurements. By increasing the concentration of Mg2+, but not Na+, the effect of ATP on the phosphoenzyme of (Na+,K+)ATPase was reduced. On the other hand, Mg2+ did not modify the effect of ATP on the phosphoenzyme of (Ca2+)ATPase. During (Na+,K+)ATPase turnover, the low affinity ATP site appeared to be exposed in the phosphorylated form of the enzyme, but the magnesium-complexed ATP interacted poorly with the reactive K+-sensitive phosphoenzyme, which has a tightly bound magnesium, probably because of interaction between the divalent cations. In the presence of physiological levels of Mg2+ and K+, ATP appeared to bind to the (Na+,K+)ATPase only after the dephosphorylation, while it binds to the (Ca2+)-ATPase before the dephosphorylation to activate the turnover.  相似文献

Sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles were phosphorylated with [gamma-32P]ATP in the presence of external Ca2+ without added Mg2+. The phosphoenzyme (EP) formed had tightly bound Ca2+ and was dephosphorylated by ADP. When the external Ca2+ was chelated after phosphorylation, Ca2+ dissociated from the EP and ADP addition no longer induced dephosphorylation. Subsequent addition of CaCl2 caused rapid recombination of Ca2+ and restoration of the ADP sensitivity. These findings show that the dissociation and recombination of Ca2+ took place on the outer surface of the membranes, indicating the existence of EP with bound Ca2+ which was exposed to the external medium (Caout.EP). The Ca2+ affinity of the Ca2+ binding site in Caout.EP was comparable to that of the high affinity Ca2+ binding site in the dephosphoenzyme (E). This shows that phosphorylation is not accompanied by an appreciable reduction in the Ca2+ affinity of the Ca2+ binding site, provided this site is exposed to the external medium. The transition from ADP-sensitive EP to ADP-insensitive induced by Ca2+ chelation was unaffected by Mg2+ in the medium. Mg2+ did not activate hydrolysis of the ADP-sensitive EP with bound Ca2+, whereas it markedly accelerated hydrolysis of the ADP-insensitive EP without bound Ca2+.  相似文献

We have analyzed the Fe2+ -catalyzed oxidative cleavages of Ca2+ -ATPase in the presence of Ca2+, with or without the ATP analog 5'-adenylyl-beta,gamma-imidodiphosphate (AMP-PNP) or in the presence of the inhibitor thapsigargin. To identify the positions of cleavages as precisely as possible, we have used previously identified proteinase K and tryptic fragments as a standard, advanced mass spectrometry techniques, as well as specific antibodies. A number of cleavages are similar to those described for Na+,K+ -ATPase or other P-type pumps and are expected on the basis of the putative Mg2+ binding residues near the phosphorylated Asp351 in E1 or E2P conformations. However, intriguing new features have also been observed. These include a Fe2+ site near M3, which cannot be due to the presence of histidine residues as it was postulated in the case of Na+,K+ -ATPase and H+,K+ -ATPase. This site could represent a Ca2+ binding zone between M1 and M3, preceding Ca2+ occlusion within M4, 5, 6, and 8. In addition, we present evidence that, in the non-crystalline state, the N- and P-domain may approach each other, at least temporarily, in the presence of Ca2+ (E1Ca2 conformation), whereas the presence of Mg.ATP stabilizes the N to P interaction (E1.Mg.ATP conformation).  相似文献

Human liver microsomal fractions exhibit ATP-supported Ca2+ uptake which is half-maximal at 7 X 10(-7) M free Ca2+ in the presence of oxalate. Ca2+ uptake is coupled to a Ca2+-stimulated ATPase activity, which is half-maximal at 4 X 10(-7) M free Ca2+. Catalysis involves formation of an Mr = 116,000 phosphoprotein with stability characteristics of an acylphosphate compound suggested to represent a phosphoryl protein intermediate of the Ca2+-ATPase. Phosphorylation is half-maximal at about 10(-6) M free Ca2+. The Mr = 116,000 protein is highly susceptible to proteolysis with trypsin. The phosphorylated active site was localized in an Mr = 58,000 primary tryptic fragment and in an Mr = 34,000 subfragment. Analyses on the mechanism of the Ca2+-ATPase suggest the following reaction sequence: formation of an ADP-reactive phosphoenzyme (Mr = 116,000) with bound Ca2+, which can transphosphorylate its Pi to ADP, giving rise to synthesis of ATP; reversible transformation of the ADP-reactive phosphoenzyme into an isomer without bound Ca2+, which cannot further react with ADP; hydrolytical cleavage, probably catalyzed by Mg2+, of the ADP-unreactive phosphoenzyme with liberation of Pi. Comparison with the Ca2+-transport ATPase in sarcoplasmic reticulum of skeletal muscle led us to suggest that the Mr = 116,000 Ca2+-ATPase belongs to the class of E1P . E2P-ATPases and might be operative as a Ca2+-transport ATPase at the level of the endoplasmic reticulum in human liver.  相似文献

Sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles were preloaded with either 45Ca2+ or unlabeled Ca2+. The unidirectional Ca2+ efflux and influx, together with Ca2+-dependent ATP hydrolysis and phosphorylation of the membrane-bound (Ca2+, Mg2+)-ATPase, were determined in the presence of ATP and ADP. The Ca2+ efflux depended on ATP (or ADP or both). It also required the external Ca2+. The Ca2+ concentration dependence of the efflux was similar to the Ca2+ concentration dependences of Ca2+ influx, Ca2+-dependent ATP hydrolysis, and phosphoenzyme formation. The rate of the efflux was approximately in proportion to the concentration of the phosphoenzyme up to 10 microM Ca2+. These results and other findings indicate that the Ca2+ efflux represents the Ca2+-Ca2+ exchange (between the external medium and the internal medium) mediated by the phosphoenzyme. In the range of 0.6-5.2 microM Mg2+, no appreciable Ca2+-Ca2+ exchange was detected although phosphoenzyme formation occurred to a large extent. Elevation of Mg2+ in the range 5.2 microM-4.8 mM caused a remarkable activation of the exchange, whereas the amount of the phosphoenzyme only approximately doubled. The kinetic analysis shows that this activation results largely from the Mg2+-induced acceleration of an exchange between the bound Ca2+ of the phosphoenzyme and the free Ca2+ in the internal medium. It is concluded that Mg2+ is essential for the exposure of the bound Ca2+ of the phosphoenzyme to the internal medium.  相似文献

Limited reaction of glutaraldehyde with the Ca2+-ATPase (Mr approximately 110,000) of sarcoplasmic reticulum results in intramolecular cross-linking at the active site, which can be detected by an anomalous increase in apparent molecular weight (Mr approximately 125,000) on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (Ross D.C., and McIntosh D.B. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 2042-2049). ATP, ADP, AMPPCP, trinitrophenyladenosine triphosphate, and decavanadate inhibited the cross-link in a manner suggestive of a homogeneous class of inhibitory sites, with K0.5 values for inhibition in agreement with Kd values for binding to the active site. Cross-link formation was inhibited in proportion to phosphoenzyme levels formed from Pi (E2-P) whereas stoichiometric phosphorylation from CaATP (E1-P) had no effect. Inhibition was observed at millimolar concentrations of CaATP, indicative of nucleotide binding to E1-P. MgATP, in the presence of Ca2+, inhibited cross-linkage in the micromolar and millimolar concentration ranges, the former attributable to E1 X ATP and E2-P formation and the latter to ATP binding mainly to E1-P. The inability to cross-link the active site only of the E2-P intermediate suggests a unique active site conformation, possibly a closed active site cleft, which we suggest is linked to low affinity, inwardly orientated Ca2+-binding sites.  相似文献

We have studied the fluorescence of the Ca2+ + Mg2+-activated ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum labelled with fluorescein isothiocyanate. The change in intensity of fluorescein fluorescence caused by addition of Ca2+ to the labelled ATPase can be interpreted in terms of a two-conformation model for the ATPase, one conformation (E1) having a high affinity for Ca2+, the other (E2) a low affinity. Effects of Ca2+ as a function of pH allow an estimate of the effect of pH on the E1/E2 ratio, consistent with kinetic studies. A model is presented for binding of Ca2+ to the ATPase as a function of pH that is consistent both with the data on the E1/E2 equilibrium and with literature data on Ca2+ binding.  相似文献

Twenty five amino acids within the "N", "P", and "A" domains of the Ca(2+) ATPase (SERCA1) headpiece were subjected to site directed mutagenesis, taking advantage of a high yield expression system. Functional and conformational effects of mutations were interpreted systematically in the light of the high resolution WT structure, defining direct involvement in catalysis as well as in stabilization of various positions acquired by each domain upon substrate binding and utilization. Amino acids involved in binding of ATP (such as Phe487 and Arg560 in the N domain) or phosphate (such as Asp351, Thr625, Lys684, and Thr353 in the P domain) were characterized with respect to their binding mechanism. Further identified were "positional" roles of several amino acids that stabilize neighboring residues for optimal binding of substrate or Mg(2+), or interface between headpiece domains as they change their relative positions in the course of the catalytic cycle. These include cross-linking of the "N" and "P" domains (e.g., Arg560/Asp627 salt bridge to stabilize domain approximation by ATP binding), and stabilization of the "A", "N", and activated "P" domains in arrangements differing from the ground E2 state and driven by catalytic events. This stabilization is produced through hydrogen bonds at domain interfaces, which vary depending on the intermediate state (e.g., Glu486/T171 in E1P and E2P, as opposed to Glu486/H190 in E2). We demonstrate that specific arrangements of the headpiece domains shown in crystal structures are, in fact, required to trigger displacement of transmembrane segments during the enzyme cycle in solution, allowing long range linkage of catalytic and Ca(2+) binding functions.  相似文献

Adenylate kinase (AdK) and apyrase were employed as helper enzymes to remove ADP in infrared spectroscopic experiments that study the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase. The infrared absorbance changes of their enzymatic reactions were characterized and used to monitor enzyme activity. AdK transforms ADP to ATP and AMP, whereas apyrase consumes ATP and ADP to generate AMP and inorganic phosphate. The benefits of using them as helper enzymes are severalfold: i), both remove ADP generated after ATP hydrolysis by ATPase, which enables repeat of ATP-release experiments several times with the same sample without interference by ADP; ii), AdK helps maintain the presence of ATP for a longer time by regenerating 50% of the initial ATP; iii), apyrase generates free P(i), which can help stabilize the ADP-insensitive phosphoenzyme (E2P); and iv), apyrase can be used to monitor ADP dissociation from transient enzyme intermediates with relatively high affinity to ADP, as shown here for ADP dissociation from the ADP-sensitive phosphoenzyme intermediate (Ca(2)E1P). The respective infrared spectra indicate that ADP dissociation relaxes the closed conformation immediately after phosphorylation partially back toward the open conformation of Ca(2)E1 but does not trigger the transition to E2P. The helper enzyme approach can be extended to study other nucleotide-dependent proteins.  相似文献

Amino acids in three highly conserved segments of the Ca2(+)-ATPase. Asp-Pro-Pro-Arg604, Thr-Gly-Asp627, Thr-Gly-Asp703 as well as Asp707, have been proposed to participate in formation of the nucleotide binding site. We have tested this hypothesis by investigating the properties of mutants with alterations to amino acids within these segments. Most of the mutants were found to be defective in Ca2+ transport function. The inactive mutants could be separated into two classes on the basis of the kinetics of phosphoenzyme intermediate formation and decomposition. One group, Asp601----Asn, Pro603----Leu, Asp627----Glu, and Asp703----Asn, formed phosphoenzyme intermediates with ATP in the presence of Ca2+ and with inorganic phosphate only in the absence of Ca2+, indicating that both the high affinity Ca2+ binding sites and the nucleotide binding sites were intact. In each of these mutants, however, the ADP-sensitive phosphoenzyme intermediate (E1P) decayed to the ADP-insensitive phosphoenzyme intermediate very slowly, relative to the wild-type enzyme. Thus the inability of these mutants to transport Ca2+ was accounted for by an apparent block of the transport reaction at the E1P to E2P conformational transition. Another group, Asp601----Glu, Pro603----Gly, Asp707----Glu, and Asp707----Asn, did not form detectable phosphoenzyme intermediates from either ATP or Pi. Although we have demonstrated an effect on Ca2+ transport of mutations in each of the highly conserved regions predicted to be involved in ATP binding, we cannot yet define their roles in ATP-dependent Ca2+ transport.  相似文献

The pre-steady-state kinetics of phosphorylation of the Ca2+-ATPase by ATP was studied at 37 degrees C and in intact red cell membranes to approach physiological conditions. ATP and Ca2+ activate with K0.5 of 4.9 and 26.4 microM, respectively. Preincubation with Ca2+ did not change the K0.5 for ATP. Preincubation with ATP did not alter the initial velocity of phosphorylation suggesting that binding of ATP was not rate-limiting. Mg2+ added at the start of the reaction increased the initial rate of phosphorylation from 4 to 8 pmol/mg/s. With 30 microM Ca2+, the K0.5 for Mg2+ was 60 microM. Mg2+ and Ca2+ added together beforehand accelerated phosphorylation to 70 pmol/mg/s. Phosphorylation of calmodulin-bound membranes was the fastest (280 pmol/mg/s), and its time course showed a neat overshoot before steady state. The results suggest that either preincubation with Ca2+ plus Mg2+ or calmodulin accelerated phosphorylation shifting toward E1 the equilibrium between the E1 and E2 conformers of the enzyme. K+ had no effect on the initial rate of phosphorylation and lowered by 40% the steady-state level of phosphoenzyme in the absence of Mg2+. Phosphorylation is not rate-limiting for the overall reaction since its initial rate was always higher than ATPase activity. In the absence of K+, the turnover of the phosphoenzyme was 2000 min-1, which is close to the values for other transport ATPases.  相似文献

Sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles of rabbit skeletal muscle are able to accumulate Ca2+ or Sr2+ at the expense of ATP hydrolysis. Depending on the conditions used, vesicles loaded with Ca2+ can catalyze either an ATP in equilibrium Pi exchange or the synthesis of ATP from ADP and Pi. Both reactions are impaired in vesicles loaded with Sr2+. The Sr2+ concentration required for half-maximal ATPase activity increases from 2 microM to 60-70 microM when the Mg2+ concentration is raised from 0.5 to 50 mM. The enzyme is phosphorylated by ATP in the presence of Sr2+. The steady state level of phosphoenzyme varies depending on both the Sr2+ and Mg2+ concentrations in the medium. Phosphorylation of the enzyme by Pi is inhibited by both Ca2+ and Sr2+. In the presence of 2 and 20 mM Mg2+, half-maximal inhibition is attained in the presence of 4 and 8 microM Ca2+ or in the presence of 0.24 mM and more than 2 mM Sr2+, respectively. After the addition of Sr2+, the phosphoenzyme is cleaved with two different rate constants, 0.5-1.5 s-1 and 10-18 s-1. The fraction of phosphoenzyme cleaved at a slow rate is smaller the higher the Sr2+ concentration in the medium. Ca2+ inhibition of enzyme phosphorylation by Pi is overcome by the addition of ITP. This is not observed when Ca2+ is replaced by Sr2+.  相似文献

ATP hydrolysis and Ca(2+) transport by the sarco-endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) ATPase (SERCA) are inhibited by 1,3-dibromo-2,4,6-tris(methylisothiouronium) benzene (Br(2)-TITU) in the micromolar range (Berman, M. C., and Karlish, S. J. (2003) Biochemistry 42, 3556-3566). In a study of the mechanism of inhibition, we found that Br(2)-TITU allows the enzyme to bind Ca(2+) and undergo phosphorylation by ATP. The level of ADP-sensitive phosphoenzyme (i.e. E1P-2Ca(2+)) observed in the transient state following addition of ATP is much higher in the presence than in the absence of the inhibitor. Br(2)-TITU does not interfere with enzyme phosphorylation by P(i) in the reverse direction of the cycle (i.e. E2P) and produces only a slight inhibition of its hydrolytic cleavage. The inhibitory effect of Br(2)-TITU on steady state ATPase velocity is attributed to interference with the E1P-2Ca(2+) to E2P-2Ca(2+) transition. In fact, experiments on conformation-dependent protection from proteolytic digestion suggest that, in the presence of Br(2)-TITU, the loops connecting the "A" domain to the ATPase transmembrane region undergo greater fluctuation than expected in the E2 and E2P states. Optimal stability of the gathered headpiece domains is thereby prevented. These effects are opposite to those of thapsigargin, in which the mechanism of inhibition is related to stabilization of a highly compact ATPase conformation and interference with Ca(2+) binding and phosphoenzyme formation. Our experiments with Br(2)-TITU provide the first demonstration of a kinetic limit posed by an inhibitor on the E1P-2Ca(2+) to E2P-2Ca(2+) transition in the wild-type enzyme.  相似文献

The coupling of Ca2+ movements and phosphate fluxes as well as the time-dependent occurrence of sequential reaction intermediates in the forward mode of the Ca,Mg-dependent ATPase reaction have been investigated using leaky vesicles (A23187) in the presence of varying Ca2+, Mg2+, and K+ concentrations. The employed ATP concentration of 2 microM does not allow more than one reaction cycle to occur. The respective fractions of ADP-sensitive and ADP-insensitive phosphoenzyme have been determined. The chosen experimental conditions (0-1 degree C, pH 6.0, absence of solubilizers) allow a prolonged time of observation and exclude interfering alterations of coupling and binding parameters, respectively. It is shown that under the experimental conditions K+ interacts with at least four different reaction steps (phosphoenzyme formation, E1P----E2P transition, E2P hydrolysis, and E2----E1 transformation). Mg2+ represents the sole ionic co-factor for the formation of the substrate MgATP if it is present in high concentrations (5 mM). Additional Ca2+ is bound to the substrate as well as to unspecific sites otherwise occupied by Mg2+ if Mg2+ is reduced to 0.1 mM. In this case the E1P----E2P transition rate (including Ca2+ translocation and Ca2+ release from low-affinity sites) is little diminished. If, in the absence of K+, both Mg2+ and Ca2+ are deficient E2P hydrolysis is vastly retarded. We find Ca2+ release to occur time-coincidently with E1P formation and not concomitantly with the comparably slow appearance of E2P; the molar amount of Ca2+ released, however, rather agreed with that of E2P formed. This suggests that under the prevailing conditions of a high proton concentration, phosphoenzyme states containing occluded Ca2+ or Ca2+ bound to low-affinity sites are transitional and not detectable. Preliminary findings on this subject have been published by us and colleagues from this laboratory [Hasselbach, W., Agostini, B., Medda, P., Migala, A. & Waas, W. (1985) in The sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium pump: Early and recent developments critically overviewed (Fleischer, S. & Tonomura, Y., eds) pp. 19-49, Academic Press, Orlando].  相似文献

The binding and conformational properties of the divalent cation site required for H+,K(+)-ATPase catalysis have been explored by using Ca2+ as a substitute for Mg2+. 45Ca2+ binding was measured with either a filtration assay or by passage over Dowex cation exchange columns on ice. In the absence of ATP, Ca2+ was bound in a saturating fashion with a stoichiometry of 0.9 mol of Ca2+ per active site and an apparent Kd for free Ca2+ of 332 +/- 39 microM. At ATP concentrations sufficient for maximal phosphorylation (10 microM), 1.2 mol of Ca2+ was bound per active site with an apparent Kd for free Ca2+ of 110 +/- 22 microM. At ATP concentrations greater than or equal to 100 microM, 2.2 mol of Ca2+ were bound per active site, suggesting that an additional mole of Ca2+ bound in association with low affinity nucleotide binding. At concentrations sufficient for maximal phosphorylation by ATP (less than or equal to 10 microM), APD, ADP + Pi, beta,gamma-methylene-ATP, CTP, and GTP were unable to substitute for ATP. Active site ligands such as acetyl phosphate, phosphate, and p-nitrophenyl phosphate were also ineffective at increasing the Ca2+ affinity. However, vanadate, a transition state analog of the phosphoenzyme, gave a binding capacity of 1.0 mol/active site and the apparent Kd for free Ca2+ was less than or equal to 18 microM. Mg2+ displaced bound Ca2+ in the absence and presence of ATP but Ca2+ was bound about 10-20 times more tightly than Mg2+. The free Mg2+ affinity, like Ca2+, increased in the presence of ATP. Monovalent cations had no effect on Ca2+ binding in the absence of ATP but dit reduce Ca2+ binding in the presence of ATP (K+ = Rb+ = NH4 + greater than Na+ greater than Li+ greater than Cs+ greater than TMA+, where TMA is tetramethylammonium chloride) by reducing phosphorylation. These results indicate that the Ca2+ and Mg2+ bound more tightly to the phosphoenzyme conformation. Eosin fluorescence changes showed that both Ca2+ and Mg2+ stabilized E1 conformations (i.e. cytosolic conformations of the monovalent cation site(s)) (Ca.E1 and Mg.E1). Addition of the substrate acetyl phosphate to either Ca.E1 or Mg.E1 produced identical eosin fluorescence showing that Ca2+ and Mg2+ gave similar E2 (extracytosolic) conformations at the eosin (nucleotide) site. In the presence of acetyl phosphate and K+, the conformations with Ca2+ or Mg2+ were also similar. Comparison of the kinetics of the phosphoenzyme and Ca2+ binding showed that Ca2+ bound prior to phosphorylation and dissociated after dephosphorylation.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)  相似文献
