A plasma membrane ATPase sensitive to inhibition by N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) and insensitive to inhibition by oligomycin and ouabain has been shown to be involved in acidification of urine in the turtle bladder. The activity of this NEM-sensitive ATPase was determined in four types of distal nephron segments of normal rats and in rats treated with ammonium chloride. The enzyme activity was determined by a fluorometric micromethod in which ATP hydrolysis was coupled to NADH oxidation. Significant activities (10-35 pmol ADP X min-1 X mm-1) of NEM-sensitive ATPase were present in the distal convoluted tubule (DCT) and in the cortical and outer and inner medullary collecting duct segments of normal rats. In metabolic acidosis produced by ammonium chloride treatment (plasma CO2 content = 15.3 +/- 0.8 mequiv./L), the NEM-sensitive ATPase activity was increased significantly (60-100%) in the collecting duct segments without showing a significant change in the enzyme activity in the DCT. Our data are consistent with the hypothesis that a plasma membrane H+-ATPase (inhibited by NEM but not by oligomycin or ouabain) is involved in H+ secretion in the mammalian collecting duct.  相似文献

The ATP-dependent H+ pump from adrenal chromaffin granules is, like the platelet-dense granule H+ pump, essentially insensitive to the mitochondrial ATPase inhibitors sodium azide, efrapeptin, and oligomycin and also insensitive to vanadate and ouabain, agents that inhibit the Na+,K+-ATPase. The chromaffin granule H+ pump is, however, sensitive to low concentrations of NEM (N-ethylmaleimide) and Nbd-Cl (7-chloro-4-nitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole). These transport ATPases may thus belong to a new class of ATP-dependent ion pumps distinct from F1F0-and phosphoenzyme-type ATPases. Comparisons of ATP hydrolysis with ATP-dependent serotonin transport suggest that approximately 80% of the ATPase activity in purified chromaffin granule membranes is coupled to H+ pumping. Most of the remaining ATPase activity is due to contaminating mitochondrial ATPase and Na+,K+-ATPase. When extracted with cholate and octyl glucoside, the H+ pump is solubilized in a monodisperse form that retains NEM-sensitive ATPase activity. When reconstituted into proteoliposomes with crude brain phospholipid, the extracted enzyme recovers ATP-dependent H+ pumping, which shows the same inhibitor sensitivity and nucleotide dependence as the native pump. These data demonstrate that the predominant ATP hydrolase of chromaffin granule membrane is also responsible for ATP-driven amine transport and granule acidification in both native and reconstituted membranes.  相似文献

Multivesicular bodies (MVB), prelysosomal organelles in the endocytic pathway, were prepared from estrogen-treated rat livers and examined for the presence of ATP-dependent proton transport. Vesicle acidification, assessed by acridine orange fluorescence quenching, was ATP dependent (ATP much greater than GTP, UTP), was enriched 25-fold over homogenate, was abolished by pretreatment with protonophores or a nonionic detergent, exhibited a pH optimum of 7.5, was inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) (IC50 approximately 5 microM) and N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (IC50 approximately 5 microM), and was resistant to inhibition by vanadate, ouabain, and oligomycin. Acidification exhibited no specific cation requirement; however, maximal rates of acidification depended upon the presence of Cl- (Km approximately 20 mM). Other anions were less effective in supporting acidification (Cl- greater than Br- greater than much greater than gluconate, NO-3, SO2-4, and mannitol), and indeed NO-3 inhibited acidification even in the presence of 150 mM Cl-. The proton transport mechanism appeared to be electrogenic based on: (a) enhancement of acidification by valinomycin in the presence of K gluconate, and (b) ATP-dependent fluorescence quenching of bis(3-phenyl-5-oxoisoxasol-4-yl)pentamethine oxonol, a membrane potential-sensitive anionic dye. Furthermore, the magnitude of the pH and electrical gradients generated by the proton transport mechanism appeared to vary inversely in the presence and absence of Cl-. Finally, MVB exhibited ATPase activity that was resistant to ouabain and oligomycin, but was inhibited 32.3% by 1 mM NEM, 33.7% by 200 microM dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, and 18.7% by KNO3. In isolated MVB, therefore, the NEM-sensitive ATPase activity may represent the enzymatic equivalent of a proton pump. These studies identify and characterize an ATP-dependent electrogenic proton transport process in rat liver MVB which shares many of the properties of the proton pump described in clathrin-coated vesicles, endosomes, lysosomes, Golgi, and endoplasmic reticulum from liver and other tissues. Acidification of MVB differed somewhat from that of rat liver clathrin-coated vesicles in response to Br- and NO-3, suggesting that membrane properties of these two organelles might differ.  相似文献

The present study was undertaken to investigate whether or not potassium deficiency influences N-ethylmaleimide (NEM)-sensitive ATPase in the distal nephron segments of the rat. One group of animals was fed a low-K diet, whereas the normal K-group was given the same diet after supplementation with KCl. The nephron segments examined were: the medullary and cortical thick ascending limbs, the distal convoluted tubule, and the cortical, outer and inner medullary collecting ducts. NEM-sensitive ATPase activity in microdissected segments was measured by a fluorometric microassay. The plasma K+ concentration in the low-K group was 3.1 +/- 0.3 mEq/l compared with 4.2 +/- 0.1 mEq/l in the normal-K group. NEM-sensitive ATPase activity in the outer medullary collecting duct of low-K diet animals was significantly greater than in normal-K animals. There was no significant difference in NEM-sensitive ATPase activity between the two groups of animals in the other nephron segments examined. It is suggested that NEM-sensitive H-ATPase activity in the outer medullary collecting duct is modulated by the potassium status of the animal.  相似文献

We have systematically investigated certain characteristics of the ATP-dependent proton transport mechanism of bovine brain clathrin-coated vesicles. H+ transport specific activity was shown by column chromatograpy to co-purify with coated vesicles, however, the clathrin coat is not required for vesicle acidification as H+ transport was not altered by prior removal of the clathrin coat. Acidification of the vesicle interior, measured by fluorescence quenching of acridine orange, displayed considerable anion selectively (Cl- greater than Br- much greater than NO3- much greater than gluconate, SO2-(4), HPO2-(4), mannitol; Km for Cl- congruent to 15 mM), but was relatively insensitive to cation replacement as long as Cl- was present. Acidification was unaffected by ouabain or vanadate but was inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide (IC50 less than 10 microM), dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD) (IC50 congruent to 10 microM), chlorpromazine (IC50 congruent to 15 microM), and oligomycin (IC50 congruent to 3 microM). In contrast to N-ethylmaleimide, chlorpromazine rapidly dissipated preformed pH gradients. Valinomycin stimulated H+ transport in the presence of potassium salts (gluconate much greater than NO3- greater than Cl-), and the membrane-potential-sensitive dye Oxonol V demonstrated an ATP-dependent interior-positive vesicle membrane potential which was greater in the absence of permeant anions (mannitol greater than potassium gluconate greater than KCl) and was abolished by N-ethylmaleimide, protonophores or detergent. Total vesicle-associated ouabain-insensitive ATPase activity was inhibited 64% by 1 mM N-ethylmaleimide, and correlated poorly with H+ transport, however N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive ATPase activity correlated well with proton transport (r = 0.95) in the presence of various Cl- salts and KNO3. Finally, vesicles prepared from bovine brain synaptic membranes exhibited H+ transport activity similar to that of the coated vesicles.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)  相似文献

CaATP is shown to function as a substrate for the proton translocating ATPase of chromaffin granule ghosts at concentrations which are comparable to that of MgATP. Using the initial rate of the proton pump activity as the measure (delta pH/delta t), an apparent Km-value of 139 +/- 8 microM was estimated for CaATP and 59 +/- 3 microM for MgATP. The maximal rate was markedly higher with MgATP than with CaATP, partly due to an inhibition of the hydrolytic activity at the higher concentrations of CaATP. The proton pump activity with CaATP was inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide and N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide at concentrations similar to that found for MgATP. No inhibition was observed with sodium vanadate in the concentration range 0-15 microM. Calmodulin and trifluoperazine had no effect on the overall ATPase activity with CaATP. These findings establish this activity as an intrinsic property of the chromaffin granules, i.e., linked to the H+-ATPase. No evidence was obtained for the presence of a Ca2+-translocating ATPase [Ca2+ + Mg2+)-ATPase) in the chromaffin granules.  相似文献

Changes in systemic acid-base balance are known to influence acidification in the collecting duct. The H+ secretion in the collecting duct has been shown to be an electrogenic process and it has been suggested that an H-ATPase sensitive to inhibition by N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) is responsible for H+ secretion. This study was designed to determine the effect of metabolic alkalosis on NEM-sensitive ATPase activity in the microdissected segments of the distal nephron. Metabolic alkalosis was produced by giving NaHCO3 to normal rats for 7 days. The plasma total CO2 concentration in the experimental group was 31.5 +/- 1.8 mM compared with 23.4 +/- 1.0 mM in the control group. NEM-sensitive ATPase activity was significantly lower in the cortical collecting duct and in the outer and inner medullary collecting ducts of alkali-loaded rats than those of control rats. There was no significant difference in the enzyme activity between the two groups of animals in the other nephron segments examined. Our results suggest that NEM-sensitive H-APTase activity in all three segments of the collecting duct is modulated by the acid-base status of the animal.  相似文献

The Kdp system from Escherichia coli is a derepressible high-affinity K+-uptake ATPase. Its membrane-bound ATPase activity was approximately 50 mumol g-1 min-1. The Kdp-ATPase complex was purified from everted vesicles by solubilization with the nonionic detergent Aminoxid WS 35 followed by DEAE-Sepharose CL-6B chromatography at pH 7.5 and pH 6.4 and gel filtration on Fractogel TSK HW-65. The overall yield of activity was 6.5% and the purity at least 90%. The isolated KdpABC complex had a high affinity for its substrates K+ (Km app. = 10 microM) and Mg2+-ATP (Km = 80 microM) and a narrow substrate specificity. The ATPase activity was inhibited by vanadate (Ki = 1.5 microM), fluorescein isothiocyanate (Ki = 3.5 microM), N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (Ki = 60 microM) and N-ethylmaleimide (Ki = 0.1 mM). The purification protocol was likewise applicable to the isolation of a KdpA mutant ATPase which in contrast to the wild-type enzyme exhibited an increased Km value for K+ of 6 mM and a 10-fold lowered sensitivity for vanadate. Starting from the purified Kdp complex the single subunits were obtained by gel filtration on Bio-Gel P-100 in the presence of SDS. Both the native Kdp-ATPase and the SDS-denatured polypeptides were used to raise polyclonal antibodies. The specificity of the antisera was established by immunoblot analysis. In functional inhibition studies the anti-KdpABC and anti-KdpB sera impaired ATPase activity in the membrane-bound as well as in the purified state of the enzyme. In contrast, the anti-KdpC serum did not inhibit enzyme activity.  相似文献

Clofibrate increased oligomycin-resistant ATPase activity in peroxisomes more than 17-fold (5.15 +/- 0.71 milliunits/mg protein) in rat liver. The activity was dependent on divalent cations (Mg2+ > Ca2+) with an optimum pH of 7.5. This activity was partially inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide (NEM), 4,4'-dithiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid (DIDS), silicotungstic acid (STA), and high concentrations of N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD). Proteinase K digestion of intact peroxisomes severely reduced the NEM-sensitive activity, but little affected the NEM-resistant activity. NEM-sensitive and -resistant ATPases showed Km values for ATP of 780 and 73 microM, respectively. The NEM-sensitive activity was inhibited completely by DIDS, 7-chloro-4- nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole (NBD-Cl), tributyltin chloride (TBT), and quercetin, and partially by DCCD and STA, whereas the NEM-resistant activity was totally insensitive to these chemicals except for STA. These activities had unique requirements for divalent cations, anions, and substrates, respectively. They were partially separated by gel filtration chromatography and had molecular masses of 520 kDa (NEM-sensitive enzyme) and 450 kDa (NEM-resistant enzyme), respectively.  相似文献

Vacuolar proton-translocating ATPase from bovine kidney was purified in one step by immunoprecipitation and immunoaffinity chromatography using an immobilized anti-H+ATPase monoclonal antibody. The monoclonal antibody affinity matrix coprecipitated polypeptides with Mr of 70,000, a cluster at 56,000, 45,000, 42,000, 38,000, 33,000, 31,000, 15,000, 14,000, and 12,000 from solubilized bovine kidney microsomal membranes, a pattern that was unaffected by different detergent washing conditions. A nearly identical pattern of polypeptides was observed in H+ATPase partially purified by an entirely independent method. The immunoaffinity purified H+ATPase had reconstitutively active ATP-induced acidification and potential generation that was inhibited by N-ethylamaleimide. The purified enzyme had specific activities as high as 3.1 mumol/min/mg protein, dual pH optima at 6.5 and 7.2, and a Km for ATP of 150 microM. The substrate preference was ATP greater than ITP much greater than UTP greater than GTP greater than CTP. The affinity purified H+ATPase was stimulated by phosphatidyl glycerol greater than phosphatidyl inositol much greater than phosphatidyl choline greater than phosphatidyl serine. The immunoaffinity purified enzyme did not require monovalent anions or cations for activity, and the divalent cation preference for activity was Mn, Mg much greater than Ca greater than Co much greater than Sr, Ba. The enzyme was not inhibited by ouabain, azide, or vanadate, but had kappa 1/2 inhibitory concentrations of 22.2 microM for N-ethylmaleimide, 14.9 microM for NBD-Cl, 4.9 microM for N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, 13.8 microM for 4,4'-diisothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid, and 315 microM for Zn, values close to those for inhibition of proton transport in the native vesicles. The affinity purified kidney enzyme has similarities to but also significant differences in structural and enzymatic properties from those reported for other vacuolar H+ATPase.  相似文献

Mg-ATP dependent electrogenic proton transport, monitored with fluorescent acridine orange, 9-aminoacridine, and oxonol V, was investigated in a fraction enriched with potassium transporting goblet cell apical membranes of Manduca sexta larval midgut. Proton transport and the ATPase activity from the goblet cell apical membrane exhibited similar substrate specificity and inhibitor sensitivity. ATP and GTP were far better substrates than UTP, CTP, ADP, and AMP. Azide and vanadate did not inhibit proton transport, whereas 100 microM N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and 30 microM N-ethylmaleimide were inhibitors. The pH gradient generated by ATP and limiting its hydrolysis was 2-3 pH units. Unlike the ATPase activity, proton transport was not stimulated by KCl. In the presence of 20 mM KCl, a proton gradient could not be developed or was dissipated. Monovalent cations counteracted the proton gradient in an order of efficacy like that for stimulation of the membrane-bound ATPase activity: K+ = Rb+ much greater than Li+ greater than Na+ greater than choline (chloride salts). Like proton transport, the generation of an ATP dependent and azide- and vanadate-insensitive membrane potential (vesicle interior positive) was prevented largely by 100 microM N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and 30 microM N-ethylmaleimide. Unlike proton transport, the membrane potential was not affected by 20 mM KCl. In the presence of 150 mM choline chloride, the generation of a membrane potential was suppressed, whereas the pH gradient increased 40%, indicating an anion conductance in the vesicle membrane. Altogether, the results led to the following new hypothesis of electrogenic potassium transport in the lepidopteran midgut. A vacuolar-type electrogenic ATPase pumps protons across the apical membrane of the goblet cell, thus energizing electroneutral proton/potassium antiport. The result is a net active and electrogenic potassium flux.  相似文献

Cholinergic Synaptic Vesicles Contain a V-Type and a P-Type ATPase   总被引:6,自引:4,他引:2  
Fifty to eighty-five percent of the ATPase activity in different preparations of cholinergic synaptic vesicles isolated from Torpedo electric organ was half-inhibited by 7 microM vanadate. This activity is due to a recently purified phosphointermediate, or P-type, ATPase, Acetylcholine (ACh) active transport by the vesicles was stimulated about 35% by vanadate, demonstrating that the P-type enzyme is not the proton pump responsible for ACh active transport. Nearly all of the vesicle ATPase activity was inhibited by N-ethylmaleimide. The P-type ATPase could be protected from N-ethylmaleimide inactivation by vanadate, and subsequently reactivated by complexation of vanadate with deferoxamine. The inactivation-protection pattern suggests the presence of a vanadate-insensitive, N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive ATPase consistent with a vacuolar, or V-type, activity expected to drive ACh active transport. ACh active transport was half-inhibited by 5 microM N-ethylmaleimide, even in the presence of vanadate. The presence of a V-type ATPase was confirmed by Western blots using antisera raised against three separate subunits of chromaffin granule vacuolar ATPase I. Both ATPase activities, the P-type polypeptides, and the 38-kilodalton polypeptide of the V-type ATPase precisely copurify with the synaptic vesicles. Solubilization of synaptic vesicles in octaethyleneglycol dodecyl ether detergent results in several-fold stimulation of the P-type activity and inactivation of the V-type activity, thus explaining why the V-type activity was not detected previously during purification of the P-type ATPase. It is concluded that cholinergic vesicles contain a P-type ATPase of unknown function and a V-type ATPase which is the proton pump.  相似文献

Modification of our previous procedure for the isolation of microsomal membrane vesicles from red beet (Beta vulgaris L.) storage tissue allowed the recovery of sealed membrane vesicles displaying proton transport activity sensitive to both nitrate and orthovanadate. In the absence of a high salt concentration in the homogenization medium, contributions of nitrate-sensitive (tonoplast) and vanadate-sensitive (plasma membrane) proton transport were roughly equal. The addition of 0.25 M KCl to the homogenization medium increased the relative amount of nitrate-inhibited proton transport activity while the addition of 0.25 M KI resulted in proton pumping vesicles displaying inhibition by vanadate but stimulation by nitrate. These effects appeared to result from selective sealing of either plasma membrane or tonoplast membrane vesicles during homogenization in the presence of the two salts. Following centrifugation on linear sucrose gradients it was shown that the nitrate-sensitive, proton-transporting vesicles banded at low density and comigrated with nitrate-sensitive ATPase activity while the vanadate-sensitive, proton-transporting vesicles banded at a much higher density and comigrated with vanadate-sensitive ATPase. The properties of the vanadate-sensitive proton pumping vesicles were further characterized in microsomal membrane fractions produced by homogenization in the presence of 0.25 M KI and centrifugation on discontinuous sucrose density gradients. Proton transport was substrate specific for ATP, displayed a sharp pH optimum at 6.5, and was insensitive to azide but inhibited by N'-N-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, diethylstilbestrol, and fluoride. The Km of proton transport for Mg:ATP was 0.67 mM and the K0.5 for vanadate inhibition was at about 50 microM. These properties are identical to those displayed by the plasma membrane ATPase and confirm a plasma membrane origin for the vesicles.  相似文献

A modified cytochemical assay for [Na-K]ATPase in cryostat sections of kidney was further characterized and used to quantify activity in seven functionally distinct sites along the rat nephron. The activity of [Na-K]ATPase was defined as the difference in ATPase activity in specifically identified tubules contained in serial sections incubated with and without ouabain. Preincubation of sections with ouabain was required for maximal inhibition of [Na-K]ATPase activity in several distal sites. The concentration of ouabain necessary for maximal inhibition of activity was 3.0 mM and half-maximal inhibition was obtained in all regions with 30-100 microM ouabain. In distal sites, [Na-K]ATPase formed a higher proportion of total ATPase activity (60-80 per cent) than in proximal sites (20-40 per cent). Enzyme activity was quantified using two different methods. The first measured activity over the basal region of tubules and gave an index of the concentration of [Na-K]ATPase over the basal lateral infoldings of cells composing the tubule. The second read activity over the entire cross section of tubules and provided an estimate of [Na-K]ATPase per length of tubule. The highest activities over the basal basal region were obtained from tubules of the distal nephron including the inner (MALin) and outer (MALout) medullary ascending limb, distal convoluted tubule (DCT) and connecting segment (CS). Lower activities were obtained in proximal convoluted (PCT) tubules, proximal straight (PS) tubules and the papillary collecting duct (PD). Distal convoluted tubules contained the highest activity per length of tubule. Other sites contained lower levels of activity in the following order: MALin greater than MALout greater than PCT greater than PD greater than PS. The modifications introduced increase the sensitivity and precision of this assay and permit the application of this technique to studies of [Na-K]ATPase activity in the major functional regions of the rat nephron.  相似文献

Membrane-bound ATPase activity was detected in the methanogen Methanococcus voltae. The ATPase was inhibited by vanadate, a characteristic inhibitor of E1E2 ATPases. The enzyme activity was also inhibited by diethylstilbestrol. However, it was insensitive to N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, ouabain, and oligomycin. The enzyme displayed a high preference for ATP as substrate, was dependent on Mg2+, and had a pH optimum of approximately 7.5. The enzyme was completely solubilized with 2% Triton X-100. The enzyme was insensitive to oxygen and was stabilized by ATP. There was no homology with the Escherichia coli F0F1 ATPase at the level of DNA and protein. The membrane-bound M. voltae ATPase showed properties similar to those of E1E2 ATPases.  相似文献

An ATP-dependent transport system is responsible for the cellular extrusion of cGMP. The objective of the present study was to determine the effect of Mg2+, ATP and other nucleotides (2'-dATP, GTP and ADP), exogenous ATPase modulators (such as metavanadate, ouabain, EGTA, NEM, bafilomycin A1 and oligomycin A) on the cGMP transport. The uptake of [3H]-cGMP (1 microM) at 37 degrees C was studied in inside-out vesicles from human erythrocytes. Magnesium caused a maximal activation between 5 and 10 mM and the optimal ATP concentration was 1.25 mM with K50-values of 0.3-0.5 mM. Among other nucleotides tested, 2'-dATP (K50 of 0.7 mM) was nearly as effective as ATP, whereas cGMP accumulated slowly in the presence of GTP. ADP and metavanadate (P-type ATPase inhibitor) showed to be competitive inhibitors with Ki values of 0.15 mM and 10 microns, respectively. NEM (a sulphydryl agent) reduced the ATP-dependent uptake in a concentration-dependent manner with a Ki value of 10 microM. Ouabain (Na+/K(+)-ATPase inhibitor) had no effect. Bafilomycin A1 (V-type ATPase inhibitor) and oligomycin (F-type ATPase inhibitor) were the most potent inhibitors with Ki values of 0.7 and 1.8 microM, respectively. The present study suggests that the cellular cGMP extrusion is energized by an ATPase with a unique inhibitor profile, which clearly differentiates it from the other major classes of membrane-bound ATPases.  相似文献

A cytochemical method for the light and electron microscope localization of the K- and Mg-dependent phosphatase component of the Na-K-ATPase complex was applied to rat kidney cortex, utilizing p-nitrophenylphosphate (NPP) as substrate. Localization of K-N-ATPase activity in kidneys fixed by perfusion with 1% paraformaldehyde -0.25% glutaraldehyde demonstrated that distal tubules are the major cortical site for this sodium transport enzyme. Cortical collecting tubules were moderately reactive, whereas activity in proximal tubules was resolved only after short fixation times and long incubations. In all cases, K-NPPase activity was restricted to the cytoplasmic side of the basolateral plasma membranes, which are characterized in these neplron segments by elaborate folding of the cell surface. Although the rat K-NPPase appeared almost completely insensitive to ouabain with this cytochemical medium, parallel studies with the more glycoside-sensitive rabbit kidney indicated that K-NPPase activity in these nephron segments is sensitive to this inhibitor. In addition to K-NPPase, nonspecific alkaline phosphatase also hydrolyzed NPP. The latter could be differentiated cytochemically from the specific phosphatase, since alkaline phosphatase was K-independent, insensitive to ouabain, and specifically inhibited by cysteine. Unlike K-NPPPase, alkaline phosphatase was localized primarily to the extracellular side of the microvillar border of proximal tubules. A small amount of cysteine-sensitive activity was resolved along peritubular surfaces of proximal tubules. Distal tubules were unreactive. In comparative studies, Mg-ATPase activity was localized along the extracellular side of the luminal and basolateral surfaces of proximal and distal tubules and the basolateral membranes of collecting tubules.  相似文献

The thiol reagent N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) completely inhibits the proton pump activity of the H+-ATPase in chromaffin granule 'ghosts' at concentrations which only partly (approximately 20%) inhibit the Mg2+-dependent ATP hydrolysis. Half-maximal inhibition was obtained at approximately 13 microM NEM as compared to 18 microM for the classical proton channel inhibitor N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD), and the apparent stoichiometry of the inhibitors at complete inhibition was NEM : DCCD congruent to 1 : 2. HIgh concentrations of NEM (greater than 100 microM) induce a dissipation of the transmembrane potential generated by MgATP. These findings establish NEM as a valuable proton channel inhibitor in chromaffin granules and explain the rather complex effect of NEM previously reported for catecholamine accumulation in this organelle.  相似文献

In crustaceans, the hepatopancreas is the major organ system responsible for heavy metal detoxification, and within this structure the lysosomes and the endoplasmic reticulum are two organelles that regulate cytoplasmic metal concentrations by selective sequestration processes. This study characterized the transport processes responsible for zinc uptake into hepatopancreatic lysosomal membrane vesicles (LMV) and the interactions between the transport of this metal and those of calcium, copper, and cadmium in the same preparation. Standard centrifugation methods were used to prepare purified hepatopancreatic LMV and a rapid filtration procedure, to quantify 65Zn2+ transfer across this organellar membrane. LMV were osmotically reactive and exhibited a time course of uptake that was linear for 15-30 sec and approached equilibrium by 300 sec. 65Zn2+ influx was a hyperbolic function of external zinc concentration and followed Michaelis-Menten kinetics for carrier transport (Km = 32.3 +/- 10.8 microM; Jmax = 20.7 +/- 2.6 pmol/mg protein x sec). This carrier transport was stimulated by the addition of 1 mM ATP (Km = 35.89 +/- 10.58 microM; Jmax = 31.94+/-3.72 pmol/mg protein/sec) and replaced by an apparent slow diffusional process by the simultaneous presence of 1 mM ATP+250 microM vanadate. Thapsigargin (10 microM) was also a significant inhibitor of zinc influx (Km = 72.87 +/- 42.75 microM; Jmax =22.86 +/- 4.03 pmol/mg protein/sec), but not as effective in this regard as was vanadate. Using Dixon analysis, cadmium and copper were shown to be competitive inhibitors of lysosomal membrane vesicle 65Zn2+ influx by the ATP-dependent transport process (cadmium Ki = 68.1 +/- 3.2 microM; copper Ki = 32.7 +/- 1.9 microM). In the absence of ATP, an outwardly directed H+ gradient stimulated 65Zn2+ uptake, while a proton gradient in the opposite direction inhibited metal influx. The present investigation showed that 65Zn2+ was transported by hepatopancreatic lysosomal vesicles by ATP-dependent, vanadate-, thapsigargin-, and divalent cation-inhibited, carrier processes that illustrated Michaelis-Menten influx kinetics and was stimulated by an outwardly directed proton gradient. These transport properties as a whole suggest that this transporter may be a lysosomal isoform of the ER Sarco-Endoplasmic Reticulum Calcium ATPase.  相似文献

Plasma membranes were prepared from red beet (Beta vulgaris L.) storage tissue by partition in an aqueous two-phase system. A highly active proton-translocating ATPase was purified from these membranes by lysophosphatidylcholine extraction and glycerol density gradient centrifugation. The ATPase activity was inhibited by vanadate or dicyclohexyl carbodiimide, but was insensitive to azide, nitrate and molybdate at concentrations which inhibit the F1ATPase, the tonoplast ATPase, and acid phosphatase. Inhibition by vanadate was consistent with a non-competitive mechanism, with Ki = 10 microM. The Km for Mg-ATP was about 1 mM, magnesium ions were required, and the activity was stimulated by KCl and by lysophosphatidylcholine. The optimal pH was 6.5. The molecular mass by gel filtration in the presence of 2 g/liter octyl glucoside was 600 kDa, while dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis gave a polypeptide molecular mass of 100 kDa. After blotting onto nitrocellulose, the purified enzyme did not bind concanavalin A, although a concanavalin A-binding peptide of the plasma membrane runs to nearly the same position on the gel and showed some tendency to co-purify with the ATPase. Phospholipid vesicles into which the purified ATPase had been incorporated by the freeze-thaw technique showed vanadate-sensitive, ATP-dependent proton uptake. When the ATPase was reconstituted into lipid membranes at high protein to lipid ratios and incubated with ATP, two-dimensionally crystalline arrays of protein molecules were formed.  相似文献
