چکیده

The mechanisms of ion movement across the apical membrane of the colon have previously been investigated only in intact tissue. To investigate these mechanisms directly, we have undertaken the isolation and characterization of the apical brush-border membrane of the rabbit descending colon. The purification protocol consists of an initial isolation of single epithelial cells after dissociation of the mucosal layer in EDTA, a high pH (8.3), low ionic strength homogenization of the cells, and differential centrifugation and separation of apical membrane from nuclei, and filamentous material on a 7.5% Percoll gradient. A 20-fold enrichment in alkaline phosphatase (an apical membrane enzyme marker) specific activity over the initial homogenate value is observed in the final membrane fraction. This fraction also contains a K+-activated, pH 7.8, optimum ATPase (20 times purified over homogenate) with the following properties: 1) low Kact (2 X 10(-4) M) for K+; 2) resistance to high ionic strength (1 M Tris) solubilization; 3) competitive inhibition by Na+ (K1 = 14 mM), no activation by Na+; 4) inhibition by orthovanadate (K1 = 40 nM), but no effect of oligomycin (20 micrograms/ml of protein) or ouabain (10(-3) M); and 5) a K+-sensitive phosphorylated intermediate. These characteristics suggest that this membrane-bound ATPase is distinct from other known ATPases including the Na+ + K+ - ATPase-Na+ pump of the basolateral membrane.

Isolation and Biochemical Characterization of Brush Borders from Rabbit Kidney

A technique for the isolation of intact brush borders from rabbit renal cortex was evaluated. The procedure was monitored by phase and electron microscopy and marker enzymes, i.e. ATP:NMN adenylyl transferase, nuclear; cytochrome oxidase, mitochondrial; beta-glucuronidase, lysosomal; and glucose-6-Pase, microsomal; and indicated an essentially pure preparation of brush borders. The disaccharida...

(Na+ + K+)-ATPase and plasma membrane polarity of intestinal epithelial cells: presence of a brush border antigen in the distal large intestine that is immunologically related to beta subunit

The previously produced monoclonal antibody IEC 1/48 against cultured rat intestinal crypt cells (Quaroni, A., and K. J. Isselbacher. 1981. J. Natl. Cancer Inst. 67:1353-1362) was extensively characterized and found to be directed against the beta subunit of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase as assessed by immunological and enzymatic criteria. Under nondenaturing conditions the antibody precipitated the alpha-...

Characterization of intestinal microvillar membrane disks: detergent- resistant membrane sheets enriched in associated brush border myosin I (110K-calmodulin)

The actin bundle within each microvillus of the intestinal brush border (BB) is tethered laterally to the membrane by bridges composed of BB myosin I. Avian BB myosin I, formerly termed 110K-calmodulin, consists of a heavy chain with an apparent Mr of 110 kD and three to four molecules of calmodulin "light chains." Recent studies have shown that this complex shares many properties with myosin i...

Characterization of a cytochrome b(558) ferric/cupric reductase from rabbit duodenal brush border membranes.

Iron and probably also copper are absorbed by the intestine in their reduced form. A b-type cytochrome, Dcytb, has recently been cloned from mouse and has been proposed to be the corresponding reductase. However, the nature of the cytochrome and the reduction reaction remain unknown. Here we describe the isolation and functional characterization of a novel b-type cytochrome from rabbit enterocy...

Distribution of bicarbonate-stimulated ATPase in rat intestinal epithelium

This study reports on the distribution of bicarbonate-stimulated ATPase in rat intestinal epithelial cells. Brush-border membranes and basolateral membranes were separated from each other and from mitochondrial and other intracellular membranes by differential and density gradient centrifugation. Bicarbonate-sensitive ATPase activity followed the mitochondrial marker succinic dehydrogenase clos...
