Abstract: | Sanguinarine, a benzophenanthridine alkaloid, has been found to be an inhibitor of the Na+, K+-ATPase isolated from guinea pig brain. It has a pI50 of 5.25 (5.62 μM) and exhibits uncompetitive kinetics with respect to Na+] and K+] and is non-competitive with respect to ATP]. Preincubation with sanguinarine causes increased inhibition. ATP partially protects the enzyme against this preincubation effect, while Na+ protects to a lesser extent and K+ has no effect. |
