Abstract
The sodium pump (Na+, K+-ATPase, NKA) is vital for animal cells, as it actively maintains Na+ and K+ electrochemical gradients across the cell membrane. It is a target of cardiotonic steroids (CTSs) such as ouabain and digoxin. As CTSs are almost unique strong inhibitors specific to NKA, a wide range of derivatives has been developed for potential therapeutic use. Several crystal structures have been published for NKA-CTS complexes, but they fail to explain the largely different inhibitory properties of the various CTSs. For instance, although CTSs are thought to inhibit ATPase activity by binding to NKA in the E2P state, we do not know if large conformational changes accompany binding, as no crystal structure is available for the E2P state free of CTS. Here, we describe crystal structures of the BeF3 - complex of NKA representing the E2P ground state and then eight crystal structures of seven CTSs, including rostafuroxin and istaroxime, two new members under clinical trials, in complex with NKA in the E2P state. The conformations of NKA are virtually identical in all complexes with and without CTSs, showing that CTSs bind to a preformed cavity in NKA. By comparing the inhibitory potency of the CTSs measured under four different conditions, we elucidate how different structural features of the CTSs result in different inhibitory properties. The crystal structures also explain K+-antagonism and suggest a route to isoform specific CTSs.

Abstract
The Na(+),K(+)-ATPase binds Na(+) at three transport sites denoted I, II, and III, of which site III is Na(+)-specific and suggested to be the first occupied in the cooperative binding process activating phosphorylation from ATP. Here we demonstrate that the asparagine substitution of the aspartate associated with site III found in patients with rapid-onset dystonia parkinsonism or alternating hemiplegia of childhood causes a dramatic reduction of Na(+) affinity in the α1-, α2-, and α3-isoforms of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase, whereas other substitutions of this aspartate are much less disruptive. This is likely due to interference by the amide function of the asparagine side chain with Na(+)-coordinating residues in site III. Remarkably, the Na(+) affinity of site III aspartate to asparagine and alanine mutants is rescued by second-site mutation of a glutamate in the extracellular part of the fourth transmembrane helix, distant to site III. This gain-of-function mutation works without recovery of the lost cooperativity and selectivity of Na(+) binding and does not affect the E1-E2 conformational equilibrium or the maximum phosphorylation rate. Hence, the rescue of Na(+) affinity is likely intrinsic to the Na(+) binding pocket, and the underlying mechanism could be a tightening of Na(+) binding at Na(+) site II, possibly via movement of transmembrane helix four. The second-site mutation also improves Na(+),K(+) pump function in intact cells. Rescue of Na(+) affinity and Na(+) and K(+) transport by second-site mutation is unique in the history of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase and points to new possibilities for treatment of neurological patients carrying Na(+),K(+)-ATPase mutations.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to examine the effect of pressure treatment at 193MPa and -20°C on membrane damage, changes in activity of membrane-bound ATPases and degradation of nucleic acids. The experiments were carried out with three Escherichia coli strains, in the exponential and stationary phases of growth, and differing in sensitivity to pressure. All E. coli strains subjected to pressure in the exponential phase of growth were inactivated by 6 log cycles, independently of the strain, which was accompanied by a total loss of ability to plasmolyse, an increase in irreversible membrane permeability to PI, and a reduction of cellular ATP by more than 80%. After pressure treatment of stationary phase cells, the relationship between the inactivation level and the ability to plasmolyse was not as evident as in the case of exponential phase cells. Pressure treatment of two strains of E. coli K-12 and Ec160/59 in the stationary phase that decreased viability by no more than one log cycle led only to reversible permeabilization of bacterial membranes, while irreversible permeabilization was observed in the pressure sensitive E. coli IBA72 strain phase that was inactivated by 4.6 log cycles. The reduction of ATP and changes in ATPase activity after pressure treatment of tested E. coli strains in the stationary phase of growth depended on the stage of inactivation of the particular strain. Electrophoretic analysis showed degradation of RNA isolated after pressure treatment from cells of all E. coli strains tested in the exponential phase of growth. The changes of RNA induced by pressure were not visible in the case of cells in the stationary phase. The degradation of DNA isolated from pressure treated E. coli strains from the exponential as well as from the stationary phase of growth was not observed.

Abstract
Although membrane proteins constitute more than 20% of the total proteins, the structures of only a few are known in detail. An important group of integral membrane proteins are ion-transporting ATPases of the P-type family, which share the formation of an acid-stable phosphorylated intermediate as part of their reaction cycle. There are several crystal structures of the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) pump (SERCA) revealing different conformations, and recently, crystal structures of the H(+)-ATPase and the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase were reported as well. However, there are no atomic resolution structures for other P-type ATPases including the plasma membrane calcium pump (PMCA), which is integral to cellular Ca(2+) signaling. Crystallization of these proteins is challenging because there is often no natural source from which the protein can be obtained in large quantities, and the presence of multiple isoforms in the same tissue further complicates efforts to obtain homogeneous samples suitable for crystallization. Alternative techniques to study structural aspects and conformational transitions in the PMCAs (and other P-type ATPases) have therefore been developed. Specifically, information about the structure and assembly of the transmembrane domain of an integral membrane protein can be obtained from an analysis of the lipid-protein interactions. Here, we review recent efforts using different hydrophobic photo-labeling methods to study the non-covalent interactions between the PMCA and surrounding phospholipids under different experimental conditions, and discuss how the use of these lipid probes can reveal valuable information on the membrane organization and conformational state transitions in the PMCA, Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase, and other P-type ATPases.

Abstract
We used suspensions of partially purified Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase from pig kidney to compare the effects of Rb(+), as a K(+) congener, on the time course and on the equilibrium values of eosin fluorescence and of Rb(+) occlusion. Both sets of data were collected under identical conditions in the same enzyme preparations. The incubation media lacked ATP so that all changes led to an equilibrium distribution between enzyme conformers with and without bound eosin and with and without bound or occluded Rb(+). Results showed that as Rb(+) concentration was increased, the equilibrium value of fluorescence decreased and occlusion increased along rectangular hyperbolas with similar half-maximal values. The time courses of attainment of equilibrium showed an initial phase which was so quick as to fall below the time resolution of our rapid-mixing apparatus. This phase was followed by the sum of at least two exponential functions of time. In the case of fluorescence the fast exponential term accounted for a larger fraction of the time course than in the case of occlusion. Comparison between experimental and simulated results suggests that fluorescence changes express a process that is coupled to Rb(+) occlusion but that is completed before occlusion reaches equilibrium.

Abstract
The proteolytic profile after mild controlled trypsin cleavage of shark rectal gland Na,K-ATPase was characterized and compared to that of pig kidney Na,K-ATPase, and conditions for achieving N-terminal cleavage of the alpha-subunit at the T(2) trypsin cleavage site were established. Using such conditions, the shark enzyme N-terminus was much more susceptible to proteolysis than the pig enzyme. Nevertheless, the maximum hydrolytic activity was almost unaffected for the shark enzyme, whereas it was significantly decreased for the pig kidney enzyme. The apparent ATP affinity was unchanged for shark but increased for pig enzyme after N-terminal truncation. The main common effect following N-terminal truncation of shark and pig Na,K-ATPase is a shift in the E(1)-E(2) conformational equilibrium toward E(1). The phosphorylation and the main rate-limiting E(2) --> E(1) step are both accelerated after N-terminal truncation of the shark enzyme, but decreased significantly in the pig kidney enzyme. Some of the kinetic differences, like the acceleration of the phosphorylation reaction, following N-terminal truncation of the two preparations may be due to the fact that under the conditions used for N-terminal truncation, the C-terminal domain of the FXYD regulatory protein of the shark enzyme, PLMS or FXYD10, was also cleaved, whereas the gamma or FXYD2 of the pig enzyme was not. In the shark enzyme, N-terminal truncation of the alpha-subunit abolished association of exogenous PLMS with the alpha-subunit and the functional interactions were abrogated. Moreover, PKC phosphorylation of the preparation, which relieves PLMS inhibition of Na,K-ATPase activity, exposed the N-terminal trypsin cleavage site. It is suggested that PLMS interacts functionally with the N-terminus of the shark Na,K-ATPase to control the E(1)-E(2) conformational transition of the enzyme and that such interactions may be controlled by regulatory protein kinase phosphorylation of the N-terminus. Such interactions are likely in shark enzyme where PLMS has been demonstrated by cross-linking to associate with the Na,K-ATPase A-domain.

Abstract
We report a study on the effect of the fluorescent probe eosin on some of the reactions involved in the conformational transitions that lead to the occlusion of the K(+)-congener Rb(+) in the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase. Eosin decreases the equilibrium levels of occluded Rb(+), this effect being fully attributable to a decrease in the apparent affinity of the enzyme for Rb(+) since the capacity for occlusion remains independent of eosin concentration. The results can be quantitatively described by a model that assumes that two molecules of eosin are able to bind to the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase, both to the Rb(+)-free and to the Rb(+)-occluded enzyme regardless of the degree of cation occlusion. Concerning the effect on the affinity for Rb(+) occlusion, transient state experiments show that eosin reduces the initial velocity of occlusion, and that, like ATP, it increases the velocity of deocclusion of Rb(+). Interactions between eosin and ATP on Rb(+)-release experiments seem to indicate that eosin binds to the low-affinity site of ATP from which it exerts effects that are similar to those of the nucleotide.

Abstract
We have previously reported that three residues of the fourth transmembrane segment (TM4) of the Na,K- and gastric H,K-ATPase alpha-subunits appear to play a major role in the distinct cation selectivities of these pumps [Mense, M., et al. (2000) J. Biol. Chem. 275, 1749-1756]. Substituting these three residues in the Na,K-ATPase sequence with their H,K-ATPase counterparts (L319F, N326Y, T340S) and replacing the TM3-TM4 ectodomain sequence with that of the H,K-ATPase alpha-subunit result in a pump that exhibits 50% of its maximal ATPase activity in the absence of Na(+) when the assay is performed at pH 6.0. This effect is not seen when the ectodomain alone is replaced. To gain more insight into the contributions of the three residues to establishing the selectivity of these pumps for Na(+) ions versus protons, we generated Na,K-ATPase constructs in which these residues are replaced by their H,K-ATPase counterparts either singly or in combinations. Surprisingly, none of the point mutants nor even the triple mutant was able to hydrolyze ATP at pH 6.0 at a rate greater than 20% of their respective V(max)s. For the point mutants L319F and N326Y, protons seem to competitively inhibit ATP hydrolysis at pH 6.0, based on the low apparent affinity for Na(+) ions at pH 6.0 compared to pH 7.5. It would appear, therefore, that the cation selectivity of Na,K- and H,K-ATPase is generated through a cooperative effort between residues of transmembrane segments and the flanking loops that connect these transmembrane domains. This view is further supported by homology modeling of the Na,K-ATPase based on the crystal structure of the SERCA pump.

Abstract
Bacillus subtilis exhibited an inducible K+-transporting ATPase activity with apparent Kmand maximum velocity Vmaxof 12.9 µM and 25.1 µmol·min1·(g cell protein)1, respectively, when cultivated on a synthetic medium containing less than 400 µM K+. Due to this enzyme, the growth rate of the bacterium in synthetic medium was not changed down to 115 µM K+, and the bacterium was able to grow down to 20 µM K+. The limiting K+concentration was higher in media with osmolarity increased by NaCl or sucrose. The ATPase was inhibited by micromolar concentrations of vanadate (Ki= 1.6 µM). The ATPase activity was not stimulated by any other monovalent cation. The subunit of this ATPase, with an Mrof 52 000, covalently bound the gamma phosphate group of ATP. This phosphorylated intermediate was unstable in neutral and basic pH as well as in the presence of potassium and was stable in acid pH. The enzyme did not show immunological cross-reactivity with antibody against Kdp ATPase of Escherichia coli.Key words: Kdp-like, potassium transport, Bacillus subtilis, transport ATPase, P-type ATPase.

Abstract
The focus of this article is on progress in establishing structure-function relationships through site-directed mutagenesis and direct binding assay of Tl(+), Rb(+), K(+), Na(+), Mg(2+) or free ATP at equilibrium in Na,K-ATPase. Direct binding may identify residues coordinating cations in the E(2)[2K] or E(1)P[3Na] forms of the ping-pong reaction sequence and allow estimates of their contributions to the change of Gibbs free energy of binding. This is required to understand the molecular basis for the pronounced Na/K selectivity at the cytoplasmic and extracellular surfaces. Intramembrane Glu(327) in transmembrane segment M4, Glu(779) in M5, Asp(804) and Asp(808) in M6 are essential for tight binding of K(+) and Na(+). Asn(324) and Glu(327) in M4, Thr(774), Asn(776), and Glu(779) in 771-YTLTSNIPEITP of M5 contribute to Na(+)/K(+) selectivity. Free ATP binding identifies Arg(544) as essential for high affinity binding of ATP or ADP. In the 708-TGDGVND segment, mutations of Asp(710) or Asn(713) do not interfere with free ATP binding. Asp(710) is essential and Asn(713) is important for coordination of Mg(2+) in the E(1)P[3Na] complex, but they do not contribute to Mg(2+) binding in the E(2)P-ouabain complex. Transition to the E(2)P form involves a shift of Mg(2+) coordination away from Asp(710) and Asn(713) and the two residues become more important for hydrolysis of the acyl phosphate bond at Asp(369).

Abstract
We have generated protein chimeras to investigate the role of the fourth transmembrane segments (TM4) of the Na,K- and gastric H, K-ATPases in determining the distinct cation selectivities of these two pumps. Based on a helical wheel analysis, three residues of TM4 of the Na,K-ATPase were changed to their H,K-counterparts. A construct carrying three mutations in TM4 (L319F, N326Y, and T340S) and two control constructs were heterologously expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes and in the pig kidney epithelial cell line LLC-PK(1). Biochemical ATPase assays demonstrated a large sodium-independent ATPase activity at pH 6.0 for the pump carrying the TM4 substitutions, whereas the control constructs exhibited little or no activity in the absence of sodium. Furthermore, at pH 6.0 the K(1/2)(Na(+)) shifted to 1.5 mM for the TM4 construct compared with 9.4 and 5.9 mM for the controls. In contrast, at pH 7.5 all three constructs had characteristics similar to wild type Na,K-ATPase. Large increases in K(1/2)(K(+)) were observed for the TM4 construct compared with the control constructs both in two-electrode voltage clamp experiments in Xenopus oocytes and in ATPase assays. ATPase assays also revealed a 10-fold shift in vanadate sensitivity for the TM4 construct. Based on these findings, it appears that the three identified TM4 residues play an important role in determining both the specific cation selectivities and the E(1)/E(2) conformational equilibria of the Na,K- and H,K-ATPase.

Abstract
The sequence Y771TLTSNIPEIT781P in the fifth transmembrane segment of the alpha-subunit of Na,K-ATPase is unique among cation pump proteins. Here, in search of the molecular basis for Na,K specificity, alanine and conservative substitutions were directed to six oxygen-carrying residues in this segment. The contribution of the residues to cation binding was estimated from direct binding of Tl+ [Nielsen, et al. (1998) Biochemistry 37, 1961-1968], K+ displacement of ATP binding at equilibrium, and Na+-dependent phosphorylation from ATP in the presence of oligomycin. As an intrinsic control, substitution of Thr781 had no effect on Tl+(K+) or Na+ binding. There are several novel observations from this work. First, the carboxamide group of Asn776 is equally important for binding Tl+(K+) or Na+, whereas a shift of the position of the carboxamide of Asn776 (Asn776Gln) causes a large depression of Na+ binding without affecting the binding of Tl+(K+). Second, Thr774 is important for Na+ selectivity because removal of the hydroxyl group reduces the binding of Na+ with no effect on binding of Tl+(K+). Removal of the methyl groups of Thr774 or Thr772 reduces binding of both Tl+(K+) and Na+, whereas the hydroxyl group of Thr772 does not contribute to cation binding. Furthermore, the hydroxyl groups of Ser775 and Tyr771 are important for binding both Tl+(K+) and Na+. The data suggest that rotating or tilting of the cytoplasmic part of the fifth transmembrane segment may adapt distances between coordinating groups and contribute to the distinctive Na+/K+ selectivity of the pump.

Abstract
Site-directed mutagenesis and assay of Rb+ and Tl+ occlusion in recombinant Na,K-ATPase from yeast were combined to establish structure-function relationships of amino acid side chains involved in high-affinity occlusion of K+ in the E2[2K] form. The wild-type yeast enzyme was capable of occluding 2 Rb+ or Tl+ ions/ouabain binding site or alpha 1 beta 1 unit with high apparent affinity (Kd(Tl+) = 7 +/- 2 microM), like the purified Na,K-ATPase from pig kidney. Mutations of Glu327(Gln,Asp), Asp804(Asn, Glu), Asp808(Asn, Glu) and Glu779(Asp) abolished high-affinity occlusion of Rb+ or Tl+ ions. The substitution of Glu779 for Gln reduced the occlusion capacity to 1 Tl+ ion/alpha 1 beta 1-unit with a 3-fold decrease of the apparent affinity for the ion (Kd(Tl+) = 24 +/- 8 microM). These effects on occlusion were closely correlated to effects of the mutations on K0.5(K+) for K+ displacement of ATP binding. Each of the four carboxylate residues Glu327, Glu779, and Asp804 or Asp808 in transmembrane segments 4, 5, and 6 is therefore essential for high-affinity occlusion of K+ in the E2[2K] form. These residues either may engage directly in cation coordination or they may be important for formation or stability of the occlusion cavity.

Abstract
The highly conserved lysine residue Lys758 in the fifth stalk segment of the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase was substituted with either isoleucine or arginine by site-directed mutagenesis. The substitution with arginine was without significant effects on Ca2+-ATPase function, whereas multiple changes of functional characteristics were observed with the Lys758 --> Ile mutant. These included insensitivity of ATPase activity to the calcium ionophore A23187, an alkaline shift of the pH dependence of ATPase activity, reduced maximum molecular turnover rate and steady-state phosphorylation level, reduced apparent affinities for Ca2+ and inorganic phosphate, as well as increased sensitivity to inhibition by vanadate. Analysis of the partial reaction steps of the enzyme cycle traced these changes to two steps. The rate of dephosphorylation of the ADP-insensitive phosphoenzyme intermediate (E2P) was increased, irrespective of variations of pH, K+, Ca2+, and dimethyl sulfoxide concentration. In addition, the rate of conversion of the dephosphoenzyme with low Ca2+ affinity (E2) to the Ca2+-bound form activated for phosphorylation (E1Ca2) was reduced in the mutant, and the ATP-induced rate enhancement of this step required higher ATP concentrations in the mutant compared with the wild type.

Abstract
A considerable (2-fold) stimulation of the DCCD-sensitive ATPase activity by K+ or Rb+, but not by Na+, over the range of zero to 100 mM was shown in the isolated membranes of E. coli grown anaerobically in the presence of glucose. This effect was observed only in parent and in the trkG, but not in the trkA, trkE, or trkH mutants. The trkG or the trkH mutant with an unc deletion had a residual ATPase activity not sensitive to DCCD. A stimulation of the DCCD-sensitive ATPase activity by K+ was absent in the membranes from bacteria grown anaerobically in the presence of sodium nitrate. Growth of the trkG, but not of other trk mutants, in the medium with moderate K+ activity did not depend on K+ concentration. Under upshock, K+ accumulation was essentially higher in the trkG mutant than in the other trk mutant. The K(+)-stimulated DCCD-sensitive ATPase activity in the membranes isolated from anaerobically grown E. coli has been shown to depend absolutely on both the F0F1 and the Trk system and can be explained by a direct interaction between these transport systems within the membrane of anaerobically grown bacteria with the formation of a single supercomplex functioning as a H(+)-K+ pump. The trkG gene is most probably not functional in anaerobically grown bacteria.

Abstract
Tryptic cleavage of the catalytic subunit of kidney Na,K-ATPase in the E1 conformation effects a change in kinetic behavior apparent at low ATP concentration. Thus, at < or = 10 microM ATP, K+ inhibits Na(+)-dependent ATPase activity of the undigested enzyme but activates activity of the digested enzyme. With time of trypsinolysis, a transient increase followed by a decrease in activity is observed at low [ATP], whereas at high [ATP] (1 mM), activity is progressively reduced. At low [ATP], the trypsin-treated/control activity ratio was > or = 3-fold higher with K+ compared to the ratio observed with the K+ congener Li+. Also, the relative Na/K exchange activity (22Na+ influx into K(+)-loaded inside-out vesicles from erythrocytes) with either 0.01 mM ATP or 1 mM CTP compared to 1 mM ATP was greater for the trypsin-treated than for the control enzyme. The kinetic change is correlated with the initial rapid cleavage of the N-terminal tryptic fragment (< or = 30 residues) from the catalytic subunit. It is concluded that this segment regulates the K+ deocclusion pathway of the reaction; removal of this fragment produces a modified active species having an increased rate of K+ deocclusion.

Abstract
Site-specific mutagenesis was used to analyse the functional roles of the residues Pro328 and Leu332 located in the conserved PEGLL motif of the predicted transmembrane helix M4 in the alpha 1-subunit of the ouabain resistant rat kidney Na+,K(+)-ATPase. cDNAs encoding either of the Na+,K(+)-ATPase mutants Pro328-->Ala and Leu332-->Ala, and wild type, were cloned into the expression vector pMT2 and transfected into COS-1 cells. Ouabain-resistant clones growing in the presence of 10 microM ouabain were isolated, and the Na+,K+, ATP and pH dependencies of the Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity measured in the presence of 10 microM ouabain were analysed. Under these conditions the exogenous expressed Na+,K(+)-ATPase contributed more than 95% of the Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity. The Pro328-->Ala mutant displayed a reduced apparent affinity for Na+ (K0.5 (Na+) 13.04 mM), relative to the wild type (K0.5 (Na+) 7.13 mM). By contrast, the apparent affinity for Na+ displayed by the Leu332-->Ala mutant was increased (K0.5 (Na+) 3.92 mM). Either of the mutants exhibited lower apparent affinity for K+ relative to the wild type (K0.5 (K+) 2.46 mM for Pro328-->Ala and 1.97 mM for Leu332-->Ala, compared with 0.78 mM for wild type). Both mutants exhibited higher apparent affinity for ATP than the wild type (K0.5 (ATP) 0.086 mM for Pro328-->Ala and 0.042 mM for Leu332-->Ala, compared with 0.287 mM for wild type). The influence of pH was in accordance with an acceleration of the E2 (K)-->E1 transition in the mutants relative to the wild type. These data are consistent with a role of Pro328 and Leu332 in the stabilization of the E2 form and of Pro328 in Na+ binding. The possible role of the mutated residues in K+ binding is discussed.

Abstract
In liposomes with reconstituted shark Na+/K(+)-ATPase the effect of cytoplasmic K+ was investigated in the absence of extracellular alkali ions. During such conditions the Na+/K(+)-ATPase is engaged in the so called uncoupled Na+ efflux mode in which cytoplasmic Na+ activates and binds to the enzyme and becomes translocated without countertransport of K+ as in the physiological Na+/K+ exchange mode. In this uncoupled flux mode only low-affinity inhibition by K+cyt is found to be present. The inhibition pattern is consistent with a model in which cytoplasmic K+ exhibit mixed inhibition of Na+ activation, probably by binding at the three cytoplasmic loading sites on E1ATP (E1A). With determined intrinsic binding constants for cytoplasmic Na+ to this form of KS1, KS2, KS3 = 40 mM, 2 mM, 2 mM the inhibition pattern can be simulated assuming three K+cyt sites with equal affinity for Ki = 40 mM, similar to KS1 for the first Na+cyt site. The discrimination between cytoplasmic Na+ and K+ is therefore enhanced by allosteric interaction initiated from the cis-side due to binding of the first Na+, as opposed to K+, which induces the positive cooperatively in the successive Na+ bindings. pH is found to influence the pattern of K+cyt inhibition: A lowering of the pH potentiates the K+cyt inhibition, whereas at increased pH the inhibition is decreased and transformed into a pure competitive competition.

Abstract
1. The onset of ouabain inhibition was quantified by analysis with an integrated rate equation from experiments in which the activity of Na,K-ATPase from guinea-pig myocardium had been altered with adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP, 0.3-9 mmoll-1) in the absence and presence of a detergent. 2. Under control conditions with increasing ouabain (0.1-100 mumoll-1) and ATP (0.3-1 mmoll-1) concentrations, inhibition developed faster. The acceleration by ouabain became less effective at saturating concentrations leading to a non-linear relationship between pseudo-first-order rate constants of inhibition and ouabain concentration. With a rise of ATP to 3 and 9 mmoll-1, i.e., near total Mg concentration (5 mmoll-1), inhibition was retarded presumably because the free concentrations of Mg and uncomplexed ATP changed. Varying the ATP concentration had little effect on ouabain potency at steady state; Hill coefficients were less than 1. 3. The detergent alamethicin (23 micrograms ml-1) neither interfered with Na,K-ATPase activity nor with inhibition at steady state but accelerated its onset. This supports a role for a lipid barrier in the development of inhibition. 4. While the reaction of low concentrations of ouabain with the receptors seemed to govern inhibition rate, with an increase in steroid concentration in the presence of alamethicin, ATP-dependent enzyme activity interfered with the onset of inhibition. The transition of the enzyme between ouabain-sensitive and ATP-hydrolytic conformations consequently causes the non-linear concentration-dependence of pseudo-first-order rate constants. As the Hill coefficient was less than 1, a reaction of ouabain with two receptors also could have contributed to the special concentration-dependence of inhibition rates.

Abstract
A hydrophobic amine, (Z)-5-methyl-2-[2-(1-naphthyl)ethenyl]-4-piperidinopyridine (AU-1421), was examined as a probe of the K+ occlusion center of Na+/K(+)-ATPase. Treatment of the enzyme with AU-1421 at 37 degrees C and pH 7.0 produced irreversible inactivation of the enzyme. This inactivation was prevented, with simple competitive kinetics, by K+ or its congeners in the order of Tl+ greater than Rb+ greater than NH+4 greater than Cs+. The concentrations of these cations required for the protection, were consistent with the affinities for transport and ATPase activity. The apparent binding constant for K+ was calculated to be 0.03 mM, from the competition with AU-1421. This protection was cancelled by a high concentration of ATP or ADP. A high concentration of Na+ (Kd = 6.5-6.9 mM), as a substitute for K+, also prevented the inactivation by AU-1421. Thus, the enzyme was protected from AU-1421 when the occlusion center was occupied by a monovalent cation, irrespective of the enzyme conformation, E1 (Na(+)-bound form) or E2 (K(+)-bound form). On the other hand, the enzyme was most sensitive to AU-1421 in the presence of low concentration of Na+ (0.4-0.8 mM) or a high concentration of ATP. Tris, imidazole or choline, which favors the E1 state, also accelerated the inactivation by AU-1421. These suggest that AU-1421 reacts with the occlusion center through the E1 state.

Abstract
The number of high-affinity K+-binding sites on purified Na+/K+-ATPase from pig kidney outer medulla has been assessed by measurement of equilibrium binding of thallous thallium, Tl+, under conditions (low ionic strength, absence of Na+ and Tris+) where the enzyme is in the E2-form. Na+/K+-ATPase has two identical Tl+ sites per ADP site, and the dissociation constant varies between 2 and 9 microM. These values are identical to those for Tl+ occlusion found previously by us, indicating that all high-affinity binding leads to occlusion. The specific binding was obtained after subtraction of a separately characterized unspecific adsorption of Tl+ to the enzyme preparations. Radiation inactivation leads to formation of modified peptides having two Tl+-binding sites with positive cooperativity, the second site-dissociation constant approximating that for the native sites. The radiation inactivation size (RIS) for total, specific Tl+ binding is 71 kDa, and the RIS for Tl+ binding with original affinity is approx. 190 kDa, equal to that of Na+/K+-ATPase activity and to that for Tl+ occlusion with native affinity. This latter RIS value confirms our recent theory that in situ the two catalytic peptides of Na+/K+-ATPase are closely associated. The 71 kDa value obtained for total Tl+ sites is equal to that for total binding of ATP and ADP and it is clearly smaller than the molecular mass of one catalytic subunit (112 kDa). The Tl+-binding experiments reported thus supports the notion that radiation inactivation of Na+/K+-ATPase is a stepwise rather than an all or none process.

Abstract
Na+/K+-ATPase can be isolated from the outer medulla of mammalian kidney in the form of flat membrane fragments containing the enzyme in a density of 10(3)-10(4) protein molecules per microm2 (Deguchi et al. (1977) J. Cell. Biol. 75, 619-634). In this paper we show that these membrane fragments can be bound to a germanium plate coated with a phospholipid bilayer. With this system infrared spectroscopic studies of the enzyme have been carried out using the technique of attenuated total reflection (ATR). At a coverage of the lipid surface corresponding to 30-40% of a monolayer of membrane fragments, characteristic infrared bands of the protein such as the amide I and II bands can be resolved. About 24% of the NH-groups of the peptide backbone are found to be resistant to proton/deuterium exchange within a time period of several days. Evidence for orientation of the protein with respect to the supporting lipid layer is obtained from experiments with polarized light, the largest polarization effects being associated with the -COO- band at 1400 cm-1. Experiments with aqueous media of different ionic composition indicate that the average orientation of transition moments changes when K+ in the medium is replaced by Tris+ or Na+.

Abstract
Na+/K+ -ATPase, reconstituted into phospholipid vesicles, has been used to study the localisation of binding sites of ligands involved in the phosphorylation reaction. Inside-out oriented Na+/K+ -ATPase molecules are the only population in this system, which can be phosphorylated, as the rightside-out oriented as well as the non-incorporated enzyme molecules are inhibited by ouabain. In addition, the right-side-out oriented Na+/K+ -ATPase molecules have their ATP binding site intravesicularly and are thus not accessible to substrate added to the extravesicular medium. Functional binding sites for the following ligands have been demonstrated: (i) Potassium, acting at the extracellular side with high affinity (stimulating the dephosphorylation rate of the E2P conformation) and low affinity (inducing the non-phosphorylating E2K complex). (ii) Potassium, acting at the cytoplasmic side with both high and low affinity. The latter sites are also responsible for the formation of an E2K complex and complete with Na+ for its binding sites. (iii) Sodium at the cytoplasmic side responsible for stimulation of the phosphorylation reaction. (iv) Sodium (and amine buffers) at the extracellular side enhancing the phosphorylation level of Na+/K+ -ATPase where choline chloride has no effect. (v) Magnesium at the cytoplasmic side, stimulating the phosphorylation reaction and inhibiting it above optimal concentrations.

Abstract
The fluorescein 5'-isothiocyanate (FITC)-labeled lamb kidney Na+/K+-ATPase has been used to investigate enzyme function and ligand-induced conformational changes. In these studies, we have determined the effects of two monoclonal antibodies, which inhibit Na+/K+-ATPase activity, on the conformational changes undergone by the FITC-labeled enzyme. Monitoring fluorescence intensity changes of FITC-labeled enzyme shows that antibody M10-P5-C11, which inhibits E1 approximately P intermediate formation (Ball, W.J. (1986) Biochemistry 25, 7155-7162), has little effect on the E1 in equilibrium E2 transitions induced by Na+, K+, Mg2+ Pi or Mg2+. ouabain. The M10-P5-C11 epitope, which appears to reside near the ATP-binding site, does not significantly participate in these ligand interactions. In contrast, we find that antibody 9-A5 (Schenk, D.B., Hubert, J.J. and Leffert, H.L. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 14941-14951) inhibits both the Na+/K+-ATPase and p-nitrophenylphosphatase activity. Its binding produces a 'Na+-like' enhancement in FITC fluorescence, reduces the ability of K+ to induce the E1 in equilibrium E2 transition and converts E2.K+ to an E1 conformation. Mg2+ binding to the enzyme alters both the conformation of this epitope region and its coupling of ligand interactions. In the presence of Mg2+, 9-A5 binding stabilizes an E1.Mg2+ conformation such that K+-, Pi- and ouabain-induced E1----E2 or E1----E2-Pi transitions are inhibited. Oubain and Pi added together overcome this stabilization. These studies indicate that the 9-A5 epitope participates in the E1 in equilibrium E2 conformational transitions, links Na+-K+ interactions and ouabain extracellular binding site effects to both the phosphorylation site and the FITC-binding region. Antibody-binding studies and direct demonstration of 9-A5 inhibition of enzyme phosphorylation by [32P]Pi confirm the results obtained from the fluorescence studies. Antibody 9-A5 has also proven useful in demonstrating the independence of Mg2+ ATP and Mg2+Pi regulation of ouabain binding. In addition, [3H]ouabain and antibody-binding studies demonstrate that FITC-labeling alters the enzyme's responses to Mg2+ as well as ATP regulation.

Abstract
This paper describes properties of a simple manual assay for Rb+ occlusion on renal (Na+ + K+)-ATPase. Rb+ occlusion is measured by applying the enzyme plus Rb+ (86Rb) mixture to a Dowex-50 cation exchange column at 0 degree C, and eluting the enzyme with occluded Rb+ using an ice-cold sucrose solution. The enzyme-Rb+ complex is quite stable at 0 degree C. This method is useful for measuring Rb+ occlusion under equilibrium binding conditions and slow rates of dissociation of the enzyme-Rb+ complex. The stoichiometry of Rb+ occluded per phosphorylation site is 2. Rb+ saturation curves are strictly hyperbolic, suggesting that the two Rb+ sites have very different affinities, one in the micromolar range and one in the tens of millimolar range. ATP shifts the Rb+ saturation curves to the right (control K0.5 100-200 microM; plus ATP, K0.5 0.8-1.4 mM, in a 100 mM Tris-HCl medium, pH 7.0) and reduces the maximal level occluded (control approx. 4 nmol/mg; plus ATP approx. 3 nmol/mg protein). Thus, as expected, ATP shifts the E(1)2Rb+-E2(2Rb+)occ equilibrium towards E1. Sodium ions at concentrations of up to 30 mM compete with the rubidium ions, KNa = 1.86 mM in the Tris-HCl medium. Na+ at higher concentrations (30-100 mM) has an added non-competitive antagonistic effect. At room temperature, Rb+ dissociates slowly from the enzyme, kobs = 0.08 s-1, in the presence of either Rb+ (20 mM) or Na, (100 mM). As expected, dissociation is greatly accelerated by ATP, the rate being to fast to be measured by this technique. (Na+ + K+)-ATPase proteolyzed selectively by chymotrypsin in a Na+ medium, occludes Rb+. For control and proteolyzed (Na+ + K+)-ATPase the Rb+ saturation curves are similar and the rates of dissociation of the enzyme-Rb+ complex are identical. The chymotryptic split appears to disrupt antagonistic interactions between cation and ATP binding domains, while the E1-E2 conformational transition of the unphosphorylated protein probably remains.

Abstract
Membrane-bound (H+ + K+)-ATPase purified from hog gastric mucosa was exposed to limited papain digestion. Such treatment resulted in a rapid inhibition of the K+-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase and p-nitrophenyl phosphatase activities, with about 90% of these activities lost after 3 min incubation at 37 degrees C with 0.1 units of papain per mg of enzyme protein. Parallel to the inhibition of the enzyme activities, there was a production of a 77 kDa membrane-bound fragment containing the aspartyl phosphate residue of the phospho-intermediate. This fragment accounted for about 45% of the total enzyme protein after the 3 min papain treatment. The digestion barely affected the steady-state level of phosphorylation, allowed the aspartyl phosphate of the 77 kDa fragment to undergo the transition to the E2P form, and did not significantly alter the fraction of ADP-sensitive phosphoenzyme. The presence of KCl, however, depressed the steady-state level of phosphoenzyme formed from [gamma-32P]ATP considerably less than that of the control enzyme. With further exposure to papain the 77 kDa peptide became fragmented into a 28 kDa soluble peptide that retained the phosphorylating site. Binding of fluorescein 5'-isothiocyanate (FITC) to the native enzyme did not affect the sites of papain hydrolysis because the same peptide fragments were obtained. The FITC reaction site was also in the 28 kDa soluble peptide fragment.

Abstract
The chromium(III) complex of ATP, an MgATP complex analogue, inactivates (Na+ + K+)-ATPase by forming a stable chromo-phosphointermediate. The rate constant k2 of inactivation at 37 degrees C of the beta, gamma-bidentate of CrATP is enhanced by Na+ (K0.5 = 1.08 mM), imidazole (K0.5 = 15 mM) and Mg2+ (K0.5 = 0.7 mM). These cations did not affect the dissociation constant of the enzyme-chromium-ATP complex. The inactive chromophosphoenzyme is reactivated slowly by high concentrations of Na+ at 37 degrees C. The half-maximal effect on the reactivation was reached at 40 mM NaCl, when the maximally observable reactivation was studied. However, 126 mM NaCl was necessary to see the half-maximal effect on the apparent reactivation velocity constant. K+ ions hindered the reactivation with a Ki of 70 microM. Formation of the chromophosphoenzyme led to a reduction of the Rb+ binding sites and of the capacity to occlude Rb+. The beta, gamma-bidentate of chromium(III)ATP (Kd = 8 microM) had a higher than the alpha, beta, gamma-tridentate of chromium(III)ATP (Kd = 44 microM) or the cobalt tetramine complex of ATP (Kd = 500 microM). The beta, gamma-bidentate of the chromium(III) complex of adenosine 5'-[beta, gamma-methylene]triphosphate also inactivated (Na+ + K+)ATPase. Although CrATP could not support Na+, K+ exchange in everted vesicles prepared from human red blood cells, it supported the Na+-Na+ and Rb+-Rb+ exchange. It is concluded that CrATP opens up Na+ and K+ channels by forming a relatively stable modified enzyme-CrATP complex. This stable complex is also formed in the presence of the chromium complex of adenosine 5'-[beta, gamma-methylene]triphosphate. Because the beta, gamma-bidentate of chromium ATP is recognized better than the alpha, beta, gamma-tridentate, it is concluded that the triphosphate site recognizes MgATP with a straight polyphosphate chain and that the Mg2+ resides between the beta- and the gamma-phosphorus. The enhancement of inactivation by Mg2+ and Na+ may be caused by conformational changes at the triphosphate site.

Abstract
Chymotrypsin in NaCl medium at low ionic strength rapidly cleaves a bond in the N-terminal half of the alpha-subunit of pure membrane-bound (Na+ + K+)-ATPase from outer renal medulla. Secondary cleavage is very slow and the alpha-subunit can be converted almost quantitatively to a 78 kDa fragment. The sensitive bond is exposed to cleavage when the protein is stabilized in the E1 form by binding of Na+ or nucleotides. The bond is protected in medium containing KCl (E2K form), but it is exposed when ADP or ATP are added (E1KATP form). Fluorescence analysis and examination of ligand binding and enzymatic properties of the cleaved protein demonstrate that cleavage of the bond stabilizes the protein in the E1 form with sites for tight binding of nucleotides and cations exposed to the medium. About two 86Rb ions are bound per cleaved alpha-subunit with normal affinity (Kd = 9 microM). The bound Rb+ is not displaced by ATP or ADP. The nucleotide-potassium antagonism is abolished and ATP is bound with high affinity both in NaCl and in KCl media. Na+-dependent phosphorylation is quantitatively recovered in the 78 kDa fragment, but the affinity for binding of [48V]vanadate is very low after cleavage. ADP-ATP exchange is stimulated 4-5-fold by cleavage; while nucleotide dependent Na+-Na+, K+-K+, or Na+-K+ exchange are abolished. Cleavage with chymotrypsin in NaCl at the N-terminal side of the phosphorylated residue thus stabilizes the E1 form of the protein and abolishes cation exchange and conformational transitions in the protein although binding of cations, nucleotides and phosphate is preserved. In contrast, cleavage with trypsin in KCl at the C-terminal side of the phosphorylated residue does not interfere with E1-E2 transitions and Na+-Na+ or K+-K+ exchange. This data support the notion that cation exchange and E1-E2 transitions are thightly coupled.

Abstract
The influence of Na+ and K+ on the steady-state kinetics at 37 degrees C of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase was investigated. From an analysis of the dependence of slopes and intercepts (from double-reciprocal plots or from Hanes plots) of the primary data on Na+ and K+ concentrations a detailed model for the interaction of the cations with the individual steps in the mechanism may be inferred and a set of intrinsic (i.e. cation independent) rate constants and cation dissociation constants are obtained. A comparison of the rate constants with those obtained from an analogous analysis of Na+-ATPase kinetics (preceding paper) provides evidence that the ATP hydrolysis proceeds through a series of intermediates, all of which are kinetically different from those responsible for the Na+-ATPase activity. The complete model for the enzyme thus involves two distinct, but doubly connected, hydrolysis cycles. The model derived for (Na+ + K+)-ATPase has the following properties: The empty, substrate free, enzyme form is the K+-bound form E2K. Na+ (Kd = 9 mM) and MgATP (Kd = 0.48 mM), in that order, must be bound to it in order to effect K+ release. Thus Na+ and K+ are simultaneously present on the enzyme in part of the reaction cycle. Each enzyme unit has three equivalent and independent Na+ sites. K+ binding to high-affinity sites (Kd = 1.4 mM) on the presumed phosphorylated intermediate is preceded by release of Na+ from low-affinity sites (Kd = 430 mM). The stoichiometry is variable, and may be Na:K:ATP = 3:2:1. To the extent that the transport properties of the enzyme are reflected in the kinetic ATPase model, these properties are in accord with one of the models shown by Sachs ((1980) J. Physiol. 302, 219-240) to give a quantitative fit of transport data for red blood cells.

Abstract
An analysis of the influence of Na+ and K+ on the kinetics of Na+-ATPase in broken membrane preparations from bovine brain is presented with particular emphasis on the effect of the cations on the binding and splitting of the substrate MgATP and on the derivation of a detailed kinetic model for that interaction. It was found that the enzyme in the absence of Na+ and K+, but in the presence of 7 mM free Mg2+, at pH 7.4 (37 degrees C) exhibits an ouabain-sensitive ATPase activity. The simplest model quantitatively compatible with all the data involves two different, interconvertible (conformational) forms of the enzyme, E1 and E'1, with the following properties: The E1 form does not bind K+ but has three independent and equivalent high-affinity sites (Kd = 5.6 mM) for Na+. It binds and hydrolyzes substrate only when two or three sodium ions are bound to it. The E'1 form binds and hydrolyzes the substrate only in the absence of monovalent cations. It is competitively inhibited by K+ (Kd = 0.23 mM), and this inhibition is further enhanced by binding of Na+ to the K+-bound form at two equivalent, independent sites (Kd = 12 mM). It is suggested that the E'1 form is the Mg2+-induced conformational state of the enzyme observed by others, which differs from the usually encountered E1 and E2 forms. The model allows the calculation of ATP-binding and ADP-releasing rate constants for the E1-form for later comparison with corresponding rate constants for the (na+ + K+)-ATPase (following paper).

Abstract
The orientation of amino groups in the membrane in the alpha- and beta-subunits of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase was examined by labeling with Boldon-Hunter reagent, N-succinimidyl 3-(4-hydroxy,5-[125I]iodophenyl)propionate), in right-side-out vesicles or in open membrane fragments from the thick ascending limbs of the Henles loop of pig kidney. Sealed right-side-out vesicles of basolateral membranes were separated from open membrane fragments by centrifugation in a linear metrizamide density gradient. After labeling, (Na+ + K+)-ATPase was purified using a micro-scale version of the ATP-SDS procedure. Distribution of label was analyzed after SDS-gel electrophoresis of alpha-subunit, beta-subunit and proteolytic fragments of alpha-subunit. Both the alpha- and the beta-subunit of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase are uniformly labeled, but the distribution of labeled residues on the two membrane surfaces differs markedly. All the labeled residues in the beta-subunit are located on the extracellular surface. In the alpha-subunit, 65-80% of modified groups are localized to the cytoplasmic surface and 20-35% to the extracellular membrane surface. Proteolytic cleavage provides evidence for the random distribution of 125I-labeling within the alpha-subunit. The preservation of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity and the observation of distinct proteolytic cleavage patterns of the E1- and E2-forms of the alpha-subunit show that the native enzyme structure is unaffected by labeling with Bolton-Hunter reagent. Bolton-Hunter reagent was shown not to permeate into sheep erythrocytes under the conditions of the labeling experiment. The data therefore allow the conclusion that the mass distribution is asymmetric, with all the labeled amino groups in the beta-subunit being on the extracellular surface, while the alpha-subunit exposes 2.6-fold more amino groups on the cytoplasmic than on the extracellular surface.

Abstract
We have studied activation by Na or Rb ions of different transport modes of the Na-K pump, using phospholipid vesicles reconstituted with pig kidney Na-K-ATPase. The shape of the activation curves, sigmoid or quasi-hyperbolic, depends on the nature of the cation at the opposite surface and not on the specific mode of transport. ATP-dependent Na uptake into K-containing vesicles (Na-K exchange) is activated by cytoplasmic Na along a highly sigmoid curve in the absence of extracellular Na (Hill number, nH = 1.9). Activation displays progressively less-sigmoid curves as extracellular Na is raised to 150 mM (nH = 1.2). The maximal rate of the Na-K exchange is not affected. Na is not transported from the extracellular face by the pump in the presence of excess extracellular K, and the transmembrane effects of the extracellular Na are therefore 'allosteric' in nature. ATP-dependent Na-Na exchange (Lee & Blostein, 1980) and classical ATP-plus-ADP-dependent Na-Na exchange are activated by cytoplasmic Na along hyperbolic curves. ATP-dependent Na uptake into Tris-containing vesicles is activated by cytoplasmic Na along a somewhat sigmoidal curve. (ATP + Pi)-dependent Rb-Rb exchange is activated by cytoplasmic and extracellular Rb along strictly hyperbolic curves. The same applies for Rb-Rb exchange in the presence or absence of ATP or Pi alone. The presence of a high concentration of extracellular Na together with extracellular Rb induces a sigmoidal activation by cytoplasmic Rb of (ATP + Pi)-dependent Rb-Rb exchange (nH = 1.45) but does not affect the maximal rate of exchange. Slow passive Rb fluxes through the pump observed in the absence of other pump ligands (see Karlish & Stein, 1982 alpha) are activated by cytoplasmic Rb along a strictly hyperbolic curve with extracellular Rb, nH = 1.0 (Rb-Rb exchange), along a strongly sigmoid curve with extracellular Na, nH = 1.5 (Rb-Na exchange), and along less-sigmoid curves with extracellular Tris, nH = 1.24 (net Rb flux) or extracellular Li, nH = 1.2 (Rb-Li exchange). Activation of the passive Rb fluxes by extracellular Rb is hyperbolic in the presence of cytoplasmic Rb, Li or Tris but is sigmoid in the presence of cytoplasmic Na (nH = 1.36). Inhibition by cytoplasmic Na of passive Rb fluxes from the cytoplasmic to the extracellular face of the pump depends on the nature of the cation at the extracellular surface.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
Using a rate-dialysis technique at 0-2 degrees C, the affinities of Na+ and K+ for the sodium pump of pig kidney outer medulla were determined from their effects on the binding of ADP to the enzyme. Since all experiments were carried out in the presence of Tris, the enzyme in absence of its specific ligands was assumed to be in a 'sodium-like' conformation. The model used in the analysis of the results assumed the enzyme to be a dimeric structure with two identical high-affinity nucleotide-binding sites. It is concluded from the data that the effects of Na+ and K+ on the binding of nucleotide to either subunit of a nucleotide-free enzyme are identical. The two subunits, taken together, have five identical and non-interacting K+-binding sites (Kdiss = 0.5 mM) whose occupation antagonizes nucleotide binding. The binding of a nucleotide molecule to a nucleotide-free enzyme results in the abolition of K+ binding to two of the five K+-binding sites. The binding of the second molecule of nucleotide prevents the binding of three more K+ ions to the enzyme. These results can explain the K+-induced curvature observed in nucleotide-binding isotherms in Scatchard plots. The two subunits, taken together, have five identical and non-interacting Na+-binding sites (Kdiss = 0.5 mM) whose occupation antagonizes the effects of K+ on nucleotide binding, but does not affect nucleotide binding directly. A few experiments carried out at 18 degrees C indicate that the model applies also at this temperature. It is likely that the cation sites investigated are intracellular ones and it is concluded that the binding of each cation to its site induces a specific conformational change in the neighbourhood of the site itself without affecting the regions around the remaining cation binding sites.

Abstract
The rate of the transition from the E2 form to the E1 form of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) has been monitored by the fluorescence changes of eosin. The equilibrium between E1 and E2 is poised towards E2 in the absence of added cations. A stopped-flow tracing of the transition from E2 in the presence of 2 microM K+ (contamination) to E1 (in 150 mM Na+) is multiexponential with a large, rapidly decaying component (t 1/2 about 50 ms) and a smaller component which has a t 1/2 of about 2 s. KCl in microM concentrations decreases the amplitude of the rapidly decaying component and increases the amplitude of the slow component. The stopped-flow tracings can be satisfactorily fitted by a sum of three exponentials. An apparent Kd for K+ of about 5 microM is obtained for the conversion of the rapidly decaying component to the slowly decaying component. The experiments show that the E2 form is a mixture of at least two enzyme conformations. One E2 conformation - without K+ bound, (E2) - is transferred rapidly to the E1 conformation when Na+ is added, whereas the other E2-conformation--with K+ bound with an apparent high affinity, Kocc E2--is transferred slowly to the E1 conformation.

Abstract
The photoactivatable carbene precursor 3-trifluoromethyl-3-(m-[125I]iodophenyl)diazirine ( [125I]TID) was tested as a probe for labeling lipid-embedded segments of the proteins of pure membrane bound (Na+ + K+)-ATPase. The probe labeled the alpha-subunit (100 kDa), its major tryptic and chymotryptic fragments of 78 kDa, 58 kDa, and 46 kDa, and the beta-subunit (38 kDa) from within the lipid bilayer to nearly the same specific activity. The labeling was resistant to extensive proteolysis and the distribution of label among the proteolytic fragments and the two subunits was independent of a 47-fold variation in concentration of [125I]TID. The data show that several transmembrane segments are distributed along the sequence of the alpha-subunit and that also the beta-subunit traverses the bilayer. [125I]TID provides a more uniform labeling of the transmembrane segments of the alpha-subunit and beta-subunit than that obtained with other hydrophobic reagents. This will facilitate further studies of the primary structure and folding pattern of the Na+,K+-pump proteins in the membrane.
