چکیده

1. Ox-brain microsomes were incubated with [gamma-(32)P]ATP under various conditions. After the reaction, which was stopped with trichloroacetic acid, a small amount of phosphate remained bound to the washed precipitate. 2. Properties of the bound phosphate were studied by treatment with buffers and solvents. 3. The Na(+)-dependent increment in bound phosphate, predominant at low ATP concentration and features of which suggest involvement in the concomitant adenosine-triphosphatase activity, was rapidly released in both circumstances. 4. In aqueous media the labile phosphate was released entirely as inorganic phosphate at faster rates with increasing alkalinity. 5. In acidified chloroform-alcohol mixtures the released phosphate appeared both as inorganic phosphate and different single (32)P-labelled organic phosphates, which were tentatively identified as the relevant mono-alkyl phosphates, presumably derived by acid-catalysed alcoholysis of a labelled microsomal component, or components. 6. The labile phosphate corresponded to the P exchangeable with non-radioactive ATP added during the enzyme reaction. 7. The possible molecular nature of the labile fraction of the bound phosphate is discussed.

Temperature-dependence of activation and inhibition of rat-brain adenosine triphosphatase activated by sodium and potassium ions.

1. The adenosine-triphosphatase activity of rat-brain microsomes was measured between 0 degrees and 37 degrees . The stimulatory effect of Na(+) plus K(+) on the Mg(2+)-dependent adenosine-triphosphatase activity decreased sharply with decreasing temperature and became negligible at 0 degrees . An Arrhenius plot drawn from the experimental data showed two discontinuities: one at about 6 degrees...

Sodium-potassium-activated adenosine triphosphatase. IV. Characterization of the phosphoprotein formed from orthophosphate in the presence of ouabain.

Microsomes prepared from electric organ of Electrophorus electricus or cat brain and exposed to ouabain will react with orthophosphate to form a phosphorylated protein. The electrophoretic mobilities of the phosphopeptides cleaved by peptic and Pronase digestion of the microsomes after interaction with phosphate are indistinguishable from those previously known to be formed from microsomes and ...

The adenosine diphosphate--adenosine triposphate-excange reaction of cerebral microsomes and its relation to he sodium ion-stimulatd adenosine-triphosphatase reaction.

Microsomes from guinea-pig cerebral cortex contain a system capable of exchanging ADP with ATP at rates of about 20mumoles/mg. of protein/hr. The ADP-ATP-exchange reaction requires Mg(2+) for activity. The reaction is not stimulated by Na(+) or K(+) and is not inhibited by ouabain, in contrast with the Na(+)-plus-K(+)-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase. The pH optimum also differs from that of...

Purification and Characterization of a Cation-stimulated Adenosine Triphosphatase from Corn Roots.

A membrane-bound, monovalent cation-stimulated ATPase from Zea mays roots has been purified to a single band on sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis. Microsomal preparations with K(+) -stimulated ATPase activity were extracted with 1 m NaClO(4), and the solubilized enzyme was purified by chromatography on columns of n-hexyl-Sepharose, DEAE-cellulose, and Sephadex G-100 Superfine. A 500-fo...
