Abstract
Hindlimb skeletal muscles of the rat express two isoforms of the alpha (alpha 1 and alpha 2) and two isoforms of the beta (beta 1 and beta 2) subunits of the Na+,K(+)-ATPase. Because several muscles constitute the hindlimb, we investigated if specific isoforms are expressed in particular muscles. Northern blot analysis using isoform-specific cDNA probes demonstrated that soleus muscle expressed only the beta 1 transcript, whereas EDL or white gastrocnemius muscles expressed only the beta 2 transcript, and red gastrocnemius muscle expressed both mRNAs. All muscles tested expressed both alpha 1 and alpha 2 transcripts, albeit to various degrees: alpha 1 transcripts were present to about the same extent in all muscles but alpha 2 mRNA was 4-fold more abundant in soleus than in EDL for the same amount of total RNA. Beta subunit protein levels were investigated in purified plasma membrane fractions of pooled red (soleus + red gastrocnemius + red quadriceps) or white (white gastrocnemius + white quadriceps) muscles using isoform-specific antibodies. Red muscles expressed mostly the beta 1 protein while white muscles expressed mostly the beta 2 subunit. Both muscle groups had similar levels of alpha 1 or alpha 2 subunits, and crude membranes isolated from red muscles had 30% higher Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity than white muscle membranes. We conclude that oxidative muscles (slow and fast twitch) express beta 1 subunits, whereas glycolytic, fast twitch muscles express beta 2 subunits, and that both beta isoforms support the Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity of the alpha subunits.

Abstract
Arthropod photoreceptors are polarized cells displaying distinct surface domains. The distribution of the Na,K-ATPase (sodium pump) over these domains was examined in the honeybee photoreceptor using a monoclonal antibody that specifically recognizes the sodium pump alpha-subunit (approximately 100 kDa). We find that the sodium pump is restricted to sites of the nonreceptive photoreceptor surface closely juxtaposed to glial cells; no sodium pumps were detected on the glia-free domains of the nonreceptive surface and on the light-sensitive microvillar membranes. In order to determine the role of photoreceptor-glia contact in maintaining this polarized pump distribution, we assayed the distribution of the Na,K-ATPase after experimentally influencing photoreceptor-glia contact. Sodium pumps were present on the entire nonreceptive photoreceptor surface when photoreceptor-glia contact was removed by isolating the photoreceptors. Remodeling photoreceptor-glia contact by incubation in hyperosmotic saline caused a redistribution of sodium pumps on the photoreceptor surface corresponding to the redistribution of glial cells. We show, further, that both photoreceptor-glia contact and Na,K-ATPase distribution are independent of extracellular Ca2+. No junctional structures were observed at the borders between Na,K-ATPase-positive and Na,K-ATPase-negative membrane domains. Together, these results suggest that adhesion of glial cells to the photoreceptors plays a crucial role in the maintenance of the polarized distribution of Na,K-ATPase in the honeybee photoreceptors. The Ca(2+)-independent adhesion of glial cells to the photoreceptor surface may trap the pump molecules at the sites of photoreceptor-glia contact.

Abstract
Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase is a heterodimeric plasma membrane protein consisting of an alpha-catalytic and a beta-glycoprotein subunit. Because these two subunits are derived from two separate genes, they may not be synthesized with stoichiometric equivalence. The aim of this study was to estimate relative rates of synthesis and degradation of nascent and mature Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase alpha- and beta-subunits to determine whether either of the nascent subunits accumulates in excess and, if so, the fate of the excess subunits. We studied a pig kidney cell line (LLC-PK1/Cl4) that expresses only alpha 1- and beta 1-subunits. Relative synthesis and degradation rates of nascent subunits were first estimated by pulsing cells for 10 min with [35S]methionine followed by chase periods of up to 120 min and by immunoprecipitation. We found that directly after labeling, beta-subunits were present in threefold excess over alpha-subunits and that nearly 50% of this beta-subunit pool was degraded by 60 min. Nascent alpha-subunits were not degraded during the chase period. In a second strategy to examine relative rates of nascent alpha- vs. beta-subunit accumulation, cells were pulsed for 5-60 min and immunoprecipitated directly (without chase). The rate of accumulation of labeled alpha was greater than that of beta between 5 and 60 min, consistent with the results of the pulse-chase strategy, demonstrating a significant component of degradation of beta during this period. Despite the very different degradation rates of newly synthesized alpha- vs. beta-subunits, the degradation rates of alpha- and beta-subunits beyond 4 h after synthesis were indistinguishable (t0.5 = 10-12 h).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
To investigate the functional role of the different Na+, K(+)-ATPase alpha (catalytic) subunit isoforms in neuronal cells, we used quantitative in situ hybridization with riboprobes specific for alpha 1, alpha 2, and alpha 3 isoforms to measure the level of alpha isoform-specific expression in the neuroendocrine cells of the supraoptic (SON) and paraventricular (PVN) nuclei of rat hypothalamus. A prolonged increase in electrical activity of these cells, achieved by 5 days of salt treatment, increased the amount of alpha 1 isoform mRNA in the SON and PVN by 50%. Levels of alpha 1 mRNA in other brain regions and levels of alpha 2 and alpha 3 mRNAs were not affected by salt treatment. We conclude that the alpha 1 isoform Na+, K(+)-ATPase may be specifically adapted to pump out Na+, which enters the cells through voltage-gated channels during neuronal depolarization.

Abstract
Mononuclear cells were isolated from the peritrabecular bone marrow from the medullary bone of laying hens maintained on a calcium-deficient diet for 1 week. These cells were cultured for up to 7 days on devitalized bovine bone slices after removing the nonadherent fraction. The mononuclear precursors of the osteoclast that are present in such cultures adhere to bone matrix. These cells are TRAP+, express the vitronectin receptor at high levels, and also express high levels of sodium pumps and of carbonic anhydrase, enzymes that are characteristically enriched in the mature osteoclast. Finally, the most mature mononuclear precursors were found to be capable of resorbing the extracellular bone matrix before forming multinucleated osteoclasts.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine effects of tunicamycin (TM), which inhibits core glycosylation of the beta-subunit, on functional expression of the Na(+)-K+ pump in primary cultures of embryonic chick skeletal muscle. Measurements were made of specific-[3H]-ouabain binding, ouabain-sensitive 86Rb uptake, resting membrane potential (Em), and electrogenic pump contribution to Em (Ep) of single myotubes with intracellular microelectrodes. Growth of 4-6-day-old skeletal myotubes in the presence of TM (1 microgram/ml) for 21-24 hr reduced the number of Na(+)-K+ pumps to 60-90% of control. Na(+)-K+ pump activity, the level of resting Em and Ep were also reduced significantly by TM. In addition, TM completely blocked the hyperpolarization of Em induced in single myotubes by cooling to 10 degrees C and then re-warming to 37 degrees C. Effects of tunicamycin were compared with those of tetrodotoxin (TTX; 2 x 10(-7) M for 24 hr), which blocks voltage-dependent Na+ channels. TM produced significantly greater decreases in ouabain-binding and Em than did TTX, findings that indicate that reduced Na(+)-K+ pump expression was not exclusively secondary to decreased intracellular Na+, the primary regulator of pump synthesis in cultured muscle. Similarly, effects of TM were significantly greater than those of cycloheximide, which inhibits protein synthesis by 95%. These findings demonstrate that effects were not due to inhibition of protein synthesis. We conclude that glycosylation of the Na(+)-K+ pump beta-subunit is required for full physiological expression of pump activity in skeletal muscle.

Abstract
Synthesis and translocation of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase alpha-catalytic and beta-glycoprotein subunits from intracellular membranes to the plasma membrane were studied in Madin-Darby canine kidney cells (MDCK-T) by combining the methods of pulse-chase labeling, subcellular fractionation on sorbitol gradients, and immunoprecipitation. Immunoprecipitation from homogenates revealed that radioactive methionine incorporated into beta-subunit was equal to that incorporated into alpha-subunit after 15 min of labeling. Because the ratio of total methionines in alpha- vs. beta-subunit is approximately 5:1, these results suggest that beta-subunit is synthesized in molar excess over alpha-subunit. Half of the newly synthesized beta-subunit, likely unassembled units, were degraded by 60 min after labeling, while alpha-subunits were stable through 120 min after synthesis, suggesting alpha may be limiting for alpha beta-assembly. By 120 min the ratio of counts incorporated into alpha vs. beta approached 5, which is predicted by a 1:1 ratio of alpha to beta. The sorbitol gradient resolved two major membrane samples: a mixture of endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi populations and a plasma membrane-enriched sample. Immature beta (beta i) could not be detected in the plasma membrane-enriched samples at levels greater than could be attributed to cross-contamination by intracellular membranes. Mature beta (beta m) became detectable after 30 min, and conversion of beta i to beta m was 90% complete at 120 min. A peak of labeled alpha-subunit appeared in the plasma membrane-enriched sample at 60 min, coincident with the appearance of labeled beta m-subunit in this sample, suggesting movement as alpha beta-heterodimers.

Abstract
The minimal functional enzyme unit of Na,K-ATPase consists of an alpha-beta complex. The alpha-subunit bears all functional domains of the enzyme and so far a regulatory role for the beta-subunit in the catalytic cycle has not been established. On the other hand, increasing experimental evidence suggests that the beta-subunit is an indispensable element for the structural and functional maturation of the enzyme as well as its intracellular transport to the plasma membrane. This brief review summarizes the experimental data supporting the hypothesis that assembly of the beta-subunit is needed for the alpha-subunit to acquire the correct, stable configuration necessary for the acquisition of functional properties and its exit from the ER.

Abstract
It was postulated that newly synthesized membrane proteins need to be assembled into oligomers in the endoplasmic reticulum in order to be transported to the Golgi apparatus. By use of the differentiated human adenocarcinoma cell line Caco-2, the general validity of this proposal was studied for small intestinal brush border enzymes which are dimers in most mammalian species. Chemical cross-linking experiments and sucrose gradient rate-zonal centrifugation revealed that dipeptidylpeptidase IV is present as a dimer in the brush border membrane of Caco-2 cells whereas the disaccharidase sucrase-isomaltase appears to be a monomer. Dipeptidylpeptidase IV was found to dimerize immediately after complex glycosylation, an event associated with the Golgi apparatus. Dimerization of this enzyme was inhibited by CCCP but did not depend on complex glycosylation of N-linked carbohydrates as assessed by the use of the trimming inhibitor 1-deoxymannojirimycin. It is concluded that dimerization of dipeptidylpeptidase IV occurs in a late Golgi compartment and therefore cannot be a prerequisite for its export from the endoplasmic reticulum.

Abstract
The cell surface membrane is the boundary between a cell and its environment. In case of polarized epithelial cells, the apical plasma membrane is frequently the boundary between an organism and its environment. The plasmalemma possesses the elements that endow a cell with the capacity to converse with its environment. Plasmalemmal receptor and transducer proteins allow the cell to recognize and respond to various external influences. Membrane-associated proteins anchor cells to their substrata and mediate their integration into tissues. Many properties of a given cell type may be attributed to the protein composition of its plasma membrane. Most cells go to large lengths to control the nature and distribution of polypeptides that populate their plasmalemmas. Cells regulate the expression of genes encoding plasma membrane proteins. Proteins destined for the insertion into the plasma membrane pass through a complex system of processing organelles prior to arriving at their site of ultimate functional residence. Each of these organelles makes a unique contribution to the maturation of these proteins as they transit through them. This chapter discusses the postsynthetic steps involved in the biogenesis of plasma membrane proteins. The chapter discusses some of the events common to all plasmalemmal polypeptides, with special emphasis on those that contribute directly to the character of the cell surface. The chapter then discusses the specializations, associated with cell types, possessing differentiated cell surface sub-domains. The chapter highlights some of the important and fascinating questions confronting investigators interested in the cell biology of the plasma membrane.

Abstract
The polarity of retinal pigmented epithelia (RPE) from chicken embryos was studied in primary cell culture. Since cultured RPE approximates the morphological polarity of RPE in vivo, we investigated whether this polarity extends to the distribution of plasma membrane proteins that are peculiar to RPE. In contrast to other epithelia, the Na+,K(+)-ATPase of RPE is located in the apical rather than basolateral plasma membrane. To examine this property, we cultured RPE on extracellular matrix-coated filters. Primary cultures were compared to embryonic RPE in situ using electron microscopy and indirect immunofluorescence of frozen sections. The viability and morphology of RPE was improved by using a serum-free medium containing a bovine pituitary extract in conjunction with an extracellular matrix coating derived from Engelbreth-Holm-Swarm tumors. Cultured RPE mimicked the morphology of RPE in vivo with microvilli and junctional complexes on the apical pole and infoldings along the basolateral plasma membrane. Functional tight junctions formed as demonstrated by an EDTA-sensitive, transepithelial electrical resistance, and by the retention of [3H]inulin added to the apical chamber. In 2 hr, only 4-6% of the [3H]inulin crossed the monolayer, compared to 24% in control filters. Despite these features of polarity, the Na+,K(+)-ATPase was detected in both apical and basolateral membranes by immunofluorescence. In embryonic eyes in which the neural retina was removed, the Na+,K(+)-ATPase was confined to the apical membrane. In addition, the polarity of cultured RPE was probed with vesicular stomatitis virus. In contrast to other epithelia, budding virus particles were observed emerging from the apical, as well as basolateral, domain further suggesting the cultured cells were only partially polarized. These data indicate that structural criteria are inadequate to determine if cultured RPE have become polarized in the same manner as the epithelium in vivo.

Abstract
The alpha- and beta-subunits of Torpedo californica Na+/K(+)-ATPase were expressed in turn in single oocytes by alternately microinjecting the specific mRNAs for the alpha- and beta-subunits. The mRNA first injected was degraded prior to the injection of the second mRNA by injecting the antisense oligonucleotide specific for the first mRNA. The pre-existing beta-subunit, which had been synthesized by injecting mRNA for the beta-subunit, could assemble with the alpha-subunit expressed later in the single oocytes and the resulting alpha beta complex acquired both ouabain-binding and Na+/K(+)-ATPase activities. On the other hand, formation of the alpha beta complex was not detected when the alpha-subunit was expressed first, followed by the beta-subunit. These data suggest that the beta-subunit acts as a receptor or a stabilizer for the alpha-subunit upon the biogenesis of Na+/K(+)-ATPase.

Abstract
Detergent-solubilization of hog gastric microsomal membrane proteins followed by affinity chromatography using wheat germ agglutinin or Ricinus communis I agglutinin resulted in the isolation of five glycoproteins with the apparent molecular masses on sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gels of (in kDa): 60-80 (two glycoproteins sharing this molecular mass); 125-150; and 190-210. In the nonionic detergent Nonidet P-40 (NP-40), the 94 kDa H+/K(+)-ATPase was recovered exclusively in the lectin-binding fraction; however, in the cationic detergent dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide, most of the ATPase was recovered in the nonbinding fraction. Detection of glycoproteins either by periodic acid-dansyl hydrazine staining of carbohydrate in polyacrylamide gels or by Western blots probed with lectins indicated that the majority of the ATPase molecules are not glycosylated. In addition, in the absence of microsomal glycoproteins, the NP-40-solubilized ATPase does not bind to a lectin column. Taken together, these results suggest that the recovery of NP-40-solubilized ATPase in the lectin-binding fraction is due to its noncovalent interaction with a gastric microsomal glycoprotein. Immunoprecipitation of the ATPase from NP-40-solubilized microsomal membrane proteins resulted in the co-precipitation of a single 60-80 kDa glycoprotein. Characterization of the 60-80 kDa glycoprotein associated with the ATPase revealed that: it is a transmembrane protein; it has an apparent core molecular mass of 32 kDa; and, it has five asparagine-linked oligosaccharide chains. Given its similarity to the glycosylated beta-subunit of the Na+/K(+)-ATPase, this 60-80 kDa gastric microsomal glycoprotein is suggested to be a beta-subunit of the H+/K(+)-ATPase.

Abstract
Chemical modification of specific residues in enzymes, with the characterization of the type of inhibition and properties of the modified activity, is an established approach in structure-function studies of proteins. This strategy has become more productive in recent years with the advances made in obtaining primary sequence information from gene-cloning technologies. This article discusses the application of chemical modification procedures to the study of the Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase protein. A wide array of information has become available about the kinetics, enzyme structure, and various conformational states as a result of the combined use of inhibitors, ligands, modifiers, and proteolytic enzymes. We will review a variety of reagents and approaches that have been employed to arrive at structure-function correlates and discuss critically the limits and ambiguities in the type of information obtained from these methodologies. Chemical modification of the Na(+)-pump protein has already provided a body of data and will, we anticipate, guide the efforts of mutagenesis studies in the future when suitable expression systems become available.

Abstract
Researchers in the past few years have successfully used molecular-genetic approaches to determine the primary structures of several P-type ATPases. The amino-acid sequences of distinct members of this class of ion-transport ATPases (Na,K-, H,K-, and Ca-ATPases) have been deduced by cDNA cloning and sequencing. The Na,K-ATPase belongs to a multiple gene family, the principal diversity apparently resulting from distinct catalytic alpha isoforms. Computer analyses of the hydrophobicity and potential secondary structure of the alpha subunits and primary sequence comparisons with homologs from various species as well as other P-type ATPases have identified common structural features. This has provided the molecular foundation for the design of models and hypotheses aimed at understanding the relationship between structure and function. Development of a hypothetical transmembrane organization for the alpha subunit and application of site-specific mutagenesis techniques have allowed significant progress to be made toward identifying amino acids involved in cardiac glycoside resistance and possibly binding. However, the complex structural and functional features of this protein indicate that extensive research is necessary before a clear understanding of the molecular basis of active cation transport is achieved. This is complicated further by the paucity of information regarding the structural and functional contributions of the beta subunit. Until such information is obtained, the proposed model and functional hypotheses should be considered judiciously. Considerable progress also has been made in characterizing the regulatory complexity involved in expression of multiple alpha-isoform and beta-subunit genes in various tissues and cells during development and in response to hormones and cations. The regulatory mechanisms appear to function at several molecular levels, involving transcriptional, posttranscriptional, translational, and posttranslational processes in a tissue- or cell-specific manner. However, much research is needed to precisely define the contributions of each of these mechanisms. Recent isolation of the genes for these subunits provides the framework for future advances in this area. Continued application of biochemical, biophysical, and molecular genetic techniques is required to provide a detailed understanding of the mechanisms involved in cation transport of this biologically and pharmacologically important enzyme.

Abstract
Immunocytochemistry with a monoclonal antibody against the GABAA/benzodiazepine receptor showed labeled axo-dendritic synapses in the anteroventral cochlear nucleus. In the dorsal cochlear nucleus, label was seen apposing both axo-somatic and axo-dendritic terminals. The results suggest a heterogeneous distribution of GABA receptors, together with a possible segregation of receptor subtypes between somata and dendrites in certain neurons. The presence of cytoplasmic labeling in some neurons might reflect a higher receptor turnover rate in these neurons.

Abstract
In all cellular systems studied so far, the catalytic alpha- and the glycosylated beta-subunit of Na+-K+-ATPase are coordinately synthesized and are assembled into stoichiometric alpha, beta-complexes. In contrast to these data, in this study we show that the fully grown oocyte of Xenopus laevis synthesizes much less beta-subunit than alpha-subunit. The alpha-subunit produced in excess over the beta-subunit is membrane associated but highly trypsin sensitive and can be compared with the immature alpha-subunit population identified in epithelial cells immediately after synthesis (K. Geering, J. P. Kraehenbuhl, and B.C. Rossier, J. Cell Biol. 105: 2613-2619, 1987). The Xenopus oocyte thus turns out to be a unique system to study the functional role of the beta-subunit. Injection of beta-subunit-specific mRNA transcribed in vitro from a beta-cDNA clone (derived from Xenopus kidney, A6 cells) into oocytes results in translation of a glycosylated beta-subunit. The synthesis of this exogenous beta-subunit increases significantly the proportion of trypsin-resistant oocyte alpha-subunits able to perform cation-dependent conformational changes. In addition, 25-65% more ouabian binding sites are expressed at the plasma membrane in beta-mRNA-injected oocytes. In contrast, newly synthesized alpha-subunit translated after injection of size-fractionated mRNA enriched in alpha-mRNA remains trypsin sensitive as the oocyte alpha-subunit. These data suggest that association of the beta-subunit to the alpha-subunit provokes a structural rearrangement of the alpha-subunit that might be a first step toward the functional maturation of the Na+-K+-ATPase and its expression at the plasma membrane.

Abstract
In the accompanying paper (Gabel, Den, and Ambron, in press) it was shown that eight populations of glycopeptides are synthesized by single neurons of Aplysia californica. To see which glycopeptides might mediate interactions with target cells, we first identified glycopeptides that are transported selectively to synapses and growth cones. The giant neuron R2 was injected intrasomatically with 3H-glucosamine. Twenty-four hours later, 3H-glycopeptides in the axon and cell body were isolated and resolved by serial lectin affinity chromatography. Of the eight populations, the biantennary-type glycopeptides (GPbi) and those that bind to WGA (GPwga) were preferentially associated with rapidly transported glycoproteins. In contrast, the glycopeptide that consists of N-acetylglucosamine O-linked to ser/thr was mostly retained in the cell body. GPbi and GPwga were also preferentially transported to growth cones. Analyses of RUQ cells, exposed to 3H-glucosamine in vitro for 36 h showed an enrichment of GPbi and GPwga at the growth cone relative to the cell body. The disposition of the various glycopeptides in growing neurons was also examined using FITC lectins. FITC-coupled WGA, Vicia vellosa, and lentil lectin showed extensive staining of the cell body, but only WGA stained the growth cones. To investigate if GPwga interacts specifically with target cells, these glycopeptides were isolated from the neurons of 180 abdominal ganglia. GPwga, other Aplysia glycopeptides, and glycopeptides prepared from ovalbumin were coupled separately to fluorescent spheres. The spheres were then added to muscle cells isolated from the auricle of the heart, which is innervated by many neurons from the ganglion. While spheres coupled to GPwga bound to the muscle cell surface, the other glycopeptides did not. These results indicate that glycopeptides class GPwga, found among rapidly transported glycoproteins and on the growth cone surface, is able to bind to muscle cells and may therefore play some role in neuron-target interactions.

Abstract
Tunicamycin (TM) was used in toad urinary bladder (TBM) cells to study the role of N-glycosylation of the beta-subunit of Na+-K+-ATPase. Inhibition of the beta-subunit core glycosylation was dose dependent and coincided with a specific 70% decrease in newly synthesized beta- and alpha-subunits. Na+-K+-ATPase activity paralleled the decrease in the cellular content of the alpha-subunit, although the cellular and cell surface-expressed Na+-K+-ATPase pool was progressively filled up with nonglycosylated beta-subunits. In addition, the decrease in maximal Na+ transport capacity of the Na+-K+-ATPase as assessed by short-circuit current (SCC) measurements in the presence of amphotericin B correlated with the decrease in the total cell surface-expressed beta-subunit population despite the fact that it was composed of 47% nonglycosylated beta-subunits after 42 h of TM treatment. These results are consistent with the interpretation that beta-subunit glycosylation is not important either for the enzyme's intracellular sorting to the plasma membrane or its hydrolytic and transport properties. Finally, TM produced effects on basal SCC and electrical resistance that differed in their times of onset and time periods needed for recovery. Thus, in addition to the Na+-K+-ATPase, other glycoproteins in the apical membrane and the tight junctions must be implicated in the maintenance of transepithelial Na+ transport.

Abstract
A monoclonal antibody (mAb 62-3G1) to the GABAA receptor/benzodiazepine receptor/Cl- channel complex from bovine brain was used with light and electron microscopy in goldfish retina and light microscopy in chicken retina to localize GABAA receptor immunoreactivity (GABAr-IR). GABAr-IR was found in the outer plexiform layer (OPL) in both species, in three broad bands in the inner plexiform layer (IPL) of goldfish, and in seven major bands of the chicken IPL. A small percentage of amacrine cell bodies (composing at least three types) were stained in chicken. In goldfish OPL, GABAr-IR was localized intracellularly and along the plasma membrane of cone pedicles, whereas rod spherules were lightly stained, but always only intracellularly. In chicken, all three sublayers of the OPL were GABAr-IR. The presence of GABAr-IR on photoreceptor terminals is consistent with data indicating feedback from GABAergic horizontal cells to cones. In the goldfish IPL, GABAr-IR was localized to postsynaptic sites of amacrine cell synapses; intracellular staining of processes in the IPL also was observed in presumed "GABAergic" targets. A comparison of GABAr-IR with the distributions of 3H-muscimol uptake/binding, glutamate decarboxylase-IR, GABA-IR, and 3H-GABA uptake in the IPL showed either a reasonable correspondence or mismatch, depending on the marker, species, and lamina within the IPL. The distribution of GABAr-IR in the retina corresponded better with the 3H-muscimol than with 3H-benzodiazepine binding patterns yet overall was in excellent agreement with many other physiological and anatomical indicators of GABAergic function. We suggest that intracellular GABAr-IR represents the biosynthetic and/or degradative pathway of the receptor and we conclude that mAb 62-3G1 is a valid marker of GABAA receptors in these retinas and will serve as a useful probe with which to address the issue of mismatches between the localization of GABAA receptors and indicators of presynaptic GABAergic terminals.

Abstract
Chronic inhibition of Na+-K+-ATPase activity in outer medullary kidney tubules has previously been demonstrated to elicit a 60% increase in activity, measured under maximal velocity (Vmax) conditions (J. Biol. Chem. 260: 12740-12743, 1985). To investigate the cellular mechanism of this response, we measured the rates of Na+-K+-ATPase synthesis and degradation over its full time course. A transient increase in the rate of synthesis occurred after 12 h of ouabain treatment. After 24-h treatment, the rate of synthesis returned to a level not different from control levels. The relative degradation rate after 24-h treatment, however, was markedly lower in ouabain-treated cells than in control cells. Thus the augmentation of the number of Na+-K+-ATPase sites, elicited by the transient increase in synthesis described, was maintained under steady-state conditions by a reduction in apparent degradation rate constant.

Abstract
(Na,K)ATPase from Torpedo californica was expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes in the presence of tunicamycin by injecting mRNAs for the alpha- and beta-subunits derived from the cloned cDNAs into the oocytes. The oligosaccharide-deficient ATPase thus synthesized was transported to the oocyte plasma membrane, where it exhibited virtually the same ATPase activity, ouabain-binding capacity and 86Rb+ transport activity as the fully glycosylated enzyme. We conclude that the oligosaccharide chains on the beta-subunit has no effect on the catalytic activities of (Na,K)ATPase.

Abstract
No functional role could yet be established for the glycosylated beta-subunit of the Na,K-ATPase. In this study, we describe the intracellular processing of the beta-subunit as a glycoprotein in toad bladder cells and the consequences of its structural perturbation with glycosylation inhibitors on the cellular expression of the alpha- and beta-subunits and on the structural and functional maturation of the enzyme. Controlled trypsinolysis of homogenates from pulse-labeled cells reveals that the beta-subunit is subjected to glycosylation-dependent structural rearrangements during its intracellular routing. Inhibition of correct terminal glycosylation of the beta-subunit with deoxynojirimycin or swainsonine has no effect on the trypsin sensitivity of the alpha-subunit, its ability to perform cation-dependent conformation changes or the cellular Na,K-ATPase activity. Acquisition of core-sugars is sufficient for the enzyme to assume its catalytic functions. On the other hand, complete inhibition of glycosylation with tunicamycin leads to a destabilization of both the beta- and the alpha-subunits as judged by their higher trypsin sensitivity. In addition, tunicamycin treatment results in a decrease of the amount of newly synthesized beta- and alpha-subunit indicating that a glycoprotein, possibly the beta-subunit itself, plays a role in the efficient accumulation of the alpha-subunit in the endoplasmic reticulum.

Abstract
To test the possibility that stimulation of secretion leads Na,K-ATPase to be recruited from cytoplasmic pools and inserted into basal-lateral plasma membranes, we surveyed the subcellular distributions of Na,K-ATPase in resting and stimulated fragments of rat exorbital lacrimal gland. After a two-dimensional separation procedure based on differential sedimentation and density gradient centrifugation, we defined six density windows, which differ from one another in their contents of biochemical markers. The membranes equilibrating in window I could be identified as a sample of basal-lateral membranes; in resting preparations these membranes contained Na,K-ATPase enriched 16.6-fold with respect to the initial homogenates. Windows II through VI contained various cytoplasmic membrane populations; these accounted for roughly 80% of the total recovered Na,K-ATPase activity. Thirty-minute stimulation with 10 microM carbachol caused a 1.4-fold increase (P less than 0.05) in the total Na,K-ATPase content of window I; this increase could be largely accounted for by a 1.7-fold decrease in the total Na,K-ATPase content of density window V. Acid phosphatase activity also redistributed following stimulation, but it was recruited from a different source, and it was inserted into membranes equilibrating in windows II and III as well as into the membranes of window I.

Abstract
The beta-subunit of dog kidney (Na+ + K+)-ATPase is a sialoglycoprotein and contains three potential N-glycosylation sites. In this study, the oligosaccharide chains of purified dog kidney beta-subunit were labeled with tritium by oxidation with sodium periodate or galactose oxidase followed by NaB3H4 reduction. The beta-subunit was extensively digested by trypsin and the radioactive peptides were purified by HPLC. The enzyme, glycopeptidase A, which catalyzes the removal of N-linked oligosaccharide chains and the conversion of the glycosylated Asn residue to Asp, was used to demonstrate that a number of purified beta-subunit tryptic peptides were glycosylated. Amino-acid analysis of these beta-subunit peptides following glycopeptidase-A treatment revealed the expected Asn to Asp conversion for Asn-157, Asn-192 and Asn-264, demonstrating that all three potential N-glycosylation sites of the dog kidney beta-subunit are glycosylated. In addition, amino-acid sequence data suggest that a disulfide bond exists between Cys-158 and Cys-174.
