Kinetics and inhibition of Na
+/K
+-ATPase and Mg
2+-ATPase activity from rat synaptic plasma membrane (SPM), by separate and simultaneous exposure to transition (Cu
2+, Zn
2+, Fe
2+ and.Co
2+) and heavy metals (Hg
2+and Pb
2+) ions were studied. All investigated metals produced a larger maximum inhibition of Na
+/K
+-ATPase than Mg
2+-ATPase activity. The free concentrations of the key species (inhibitor, MgATP
2 ? , MeATP
2 ? ) in the medium assay were calculated and discussed. Simultaneous exposure to the combinations Cu
2+/Fe
2+ or Hg
2+/Pb
2+caused additive inhibition, while Cu
2+/Zn
2+ or Fe
2+/Zn
2+ inhibited Na
+/K
+-ATPase activity synergistically (i.e., greater than the sum metal-induced inhibition assayed separately). Simultaneous exposure to Cu
2+/Fe
2+ or Cu
2+/Zn
2+ inhibited Mg
2+-ATPase activity synergistically, while Hg
2+/Pb
2+ or Fe
2+/Zn
2+ induced antagonistic inhibition of this enzyme. Kinetic analysis showed that all investigated metals inhibited Na
+/K
+-ATPase activity by reducing the maximum velocities (V
max) rather than the apparent affinity (K
m) for substrate MgATP
2-, implying the noncompetitive nature of the inhibition. The incomplete inhibition of Mg
2+-ATPase activity by Zn
2+, Fe
2+ and Co
2+ as well as kinetic analysis indicated two distinct Mg
2+-ATPase subtypes activated in the presence of low and high MgATP
2 ? concentration. EDTA, L-cysteine and gluthathione (GSH) prevented metal ion-induced inhibition of Na
+/K
+-ATPase with various potencies. Furthermore, these ligands also reversed Na
+/K
+-ATPase activity inhibited by transition metals in a concentration-dependent manner, but a recovery effect by any ligand on Hg
2+-induced inhibition was not obtained.
