Abstract
Dietary polyethylene glycol (PEG) induces an increase in the specific activity of Na+-K+-activated adenosine triphosphatase (Na-K-ATPase) in the cecum mucosa of rats. Using cecum mucosa homogenates and cellular subfractions obtained by differential centrifugation, the induction process was studied with respect to time course, subcellular distribution and properties of the enzyme. In comparison with controls, Na-K-ATPase specific activity was stimulated in PEG treated rats in the total homogenate and the microsomal (105000 X g) but not in the mitochondrial (9000 X g) or nuclear (1000 X g) sediment. The specific activity of Mg-ATPase did not change in any of the fractions. Na-K-ATPase induction was statistically significant after 2 days and complete after 1-2 weeks, in parallel with the previously described stimulation in net sodium absorption. Kinetic analysis showed Vmax for ATP to be doubled while Km for ATP, Na and K as well as the optimal Mg/ATP ratio and Ki for ouabain remained unchanged. It is proposed that Na-K-ATPase and active sodium transport are closely associated in rat cecum and that dietary Na-K-ATPase stimulation is due to the induction of more enzyme molecules per unit basolateral cell membrane.

Abstract
1. The K+ requirment of Escherichia coli is only partially fulfilled by Rb+. The molar growth yield on Rb+ was about 5% of that on K+ and the growth rate in Rb+-supplemented media is lower thatn in K+ influx by any of the four K+ transport systems of E. coli. The high-affinity Kdp system (Km = 2 micron) is poorly traced by 86Rb+. It discriminates against a 86Rb+ tracer at least 1000-fold. The two moderate affinity systems, the high-rate TrkA system (Km = 1.5 mM) and the moderate rate TrkD system (Km = 0.5 mM), discriminate against a 86Rb+ tracer by approximately 10-fold and 25-fold, respectively. 86Rb+ is preferred by the low-rate TrkF system and overestimates its K+ influx by 40%.

Abstract
Liposomes containing either purified or microsomal (Na+,K+)-ATPase preparations from lamb kidney medulla catalyzed ATP-dependent transport of Na+ and K+ with a ratio of approximately 3Na+ to 2K+, which was inhibited by ouabain. Similar results were obtained with liposomes containing a partially purified (Na+,K+)-ATPase from cardiac muscle. This contrasts with an earlier report by Goldin and Tong (J. Biol. Chem. 249, 5907-5915, 1974), in which liposomes containing purified dog kidney (Na+,K+)-ATPase did not transport K+ but catalyzed ATP-dependent symport of Na+ and Cl-. When purified by our procedure, dog kidney (Na+,K+)-ATPase showed some ability to transport K+ but the ratio of Na+ : K+ was 5 : 1.

Abstract
A vesicular microsomal fraction isolated from hog fundic mucosa demonstrates the capacity to take up equal amounts of RB+ and Cl-. The amount of the Rb+ uptake is sensitive to the extravesicular osmolarity, and rate of uptake is sensitive to temperature. 86Rb+ efflux is dependent upon the cation composition of the diluting solution. ATP, but not beta-gamma methylene ATP, induces a reversible efflux of 86Rb+ from loaded vesicles, and this is dependent upon a functional K+-ATPase. The ATP induced efflux is not affected by CCCP (carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone) or TCS (tetrachlorosalicylanilide) nor by lipid soluble ions or valinomycin. Nigericin inhibits the efflux by 40%. Uptake of the lipid soluble ion 14C-SCN- has been demonstrated and is enhanced by ATP only in the presence of valinomycin. The results are consistent with a neutral or isopotential exchange of H+ for Rb+ mediated by K+-ATPase.

Abstract
The 20K dalton fragment of Ca2+ + Mg2+-ATPase obtained from th tryptically digested sarcoplasmic reticulum has been further purified using Bio-Gel P-100. This removed low-molecular-weight UV-absorbing and positive Lowry-reacting contaminants. The ionophoric activity of the 20K fragment in both oxidized cholesterol and phosphatidylcholine:cholesterol membranes is unaltered by this further purification. The 20K selectivity sequence in phosphatidylcholine:cholesterol membrane is Ba2+ greater than Ca2+ greater than Sr2+ greater than Mn2+ Mg2+. Digestion of intact sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles with trypsin, which results in the dissection of the hydrolytic site (30K) from the ionophoric site (20K), is shown to disrupt energy transduction between ATP hydrolysis and calcium transport. This further implicates the 20K dalton fragment as a calcium transport site. These data and previous evidence are discussed in terms of a proposed model for the ATPase molecular structure and the mechanisms of cation transport in sarcoplasmic reticulum.

Abstract
Inorganic lead ion, in micromolar concentrations, reversibly inhibits the sodium-plus-potassium-activated adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase) and potassium-activated p-nitrophenylphosphatase (NPPase) activities of microsomal fractions from electric organ, rat kidney, and rat brain. In the presence of 3 mM MgC12 and 3 mM ATP, the concentrations of PbC12 producing half-maximal inhibition of the ATPase from these tissues are 4 X 10(-6) M, 20 X 10(-6) M, and 55 X 10(-6) M, respectively. The corresponding values for inhibition of the NPPase are 10(-6) M, 53 X 10(-6) M, and 22 X 10(-6) M. PbC12 also stimulates the phosphorylation by [gamma-32P]ATP of a microsomal protein from all three tissues in the absence of added sodium ion. This reaction was extensively studied with electroplax microsomes. In common with the well-known Na+-dependent phosphorylation of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, the Pb2 -dependent reaction is inhibited by ouabain, specific for ATP, dependent on Mg2+, and yields and acid-stable phosphoprotein with a molecular weight of 98,000 in sodium dodecylsulfate. The Pb2+-dependent phosphoprotein, however, is not sensitive to K+. These observations are pertinent to the biochemistry and toxicity of inorganic lead in tissues and to the molecular mechanism of the cation transport enzyme.

Abstract
1. Digitonin treated membrane preparations purified from dog kidney lose their (Na+,K+)-ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) activity, but the K+-phosphatase and Na+-dependent ADP-ATP exchange activities survive and remain ouabain-sensitive. Because the enzyme preparations consist largely of pure (Na+,K+)-ATPase, these effects of digitonin must be intrinsic to the Na+ pump. 2. Concomitant with these enzymatic changes, digitonin treatment alters the sensitivity of the phosphatase and exchange activities to ouabain. 3. Attempts to measure ouabain binding by the usual centrifugation or filtration methods proved unsuccessful. A filtration method involving a double 0.01 mum filter and omitting water washes is necessary to demonstrate ouabain binding. Under these conditions, ouabain binding capacity appears to be unchanged in the presence of digitonin, but the apparent dissociation constant is doubled. 4. Ouabain binding is rendered more reversible by digitonin treatment, since washing filters with water removes a large fraction of bound ouabain without affecting the retention of exchange activity. 5. The double filter method traps essentially all of the ADP-ATP exchange activity on the filter. However, a large and somewhat variable proportion of the K+-phosphatase activity passes through the filter. Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel analysis of the filtrate shows that a small amount of filtrable protein catalyzed this phosphatase activity at greatly increased turnover rates. Both subunits of the (Na+, K+)-ATPase are present in this latter protein fraction.

Abstract
Distribution and principal characteristics of (Na+K+)-activated ATPase in human cornea were investigated. (Na+K+)-ATPase was present in both epithelium and endothelium, whereas the corneal stroma did not exhibit significant enzyme activity. In homogenates specific activity of the (Na+K+)-ATPase was 2.3-fold higher in endothelium than in epithelium. Calculation of total enzyme activity revealed a 6.1-fold higher content of (Na+K+)-ATPase in the epithelium. In the epithelium a 7-fold enrichment of (Na+K+)-ATPase compared to the homogenate was obtained in the 150-1500 X gav fraction. Maximum enrichment in the endothelium was 3.5-fold and was achieved in the 1500-2500 X gav fraction. Both fractions showed, however, the same specific activity. The pH-optimum of (Na+K+)-ATPase in the 150-1500 X gav fraction ranged from 8.0-8.2 in both epithelium and endothelium. In the epithelial 150-1500 X gav fraction the apparent Km-values were 4.0 mM for Na+, 2.8 mM for K+ and 0.12 mM for Mg2+ - ATP in equimolar concentrations. The inhibition constant of epithelial (Na+K+)-ATPase for ouabain was determined as Ki = 3.3 X 10(-7) M. The present data support the view that control of corneal hydration in man is a function of both endothelium and epithelium.

Abstract
Most biological membranes are functionally asymmetric. To study biochemical control of cardiac transsarcolemmalion fluxes, it would be of obvious advantage to use isolated vesicles of sarcolemma which retains the low passive permeability characteristics of intact sarcolemma because in such vesicles the membrane should exhibit its normal asymmetric character with respect to enzymic activities. The purpose of this investigation was to attempt identify such vesicles in a cardiac microsomal (membrane vesicular) preparation. We studied activation by Na+ and K+ of Na+, K+-ATPase and its associated K+-phosphatase activities, using as substrates ATP or p-nitrophenylphosphate (pNPP) in the presence of Mg2+. Optimal concentrations of K+ alone (10 mM) stimulated p-nitrophenylphosphatase (pNPPase) activity 1.8-fold, and over 80% of the increase could be inhibited by ouabain. Optimal Na+ plus K+ concentrations (100 mM and 10 mM, respectively) stimulated the rate of ATP hydrolysis 2-fold, but only 11 +/- 1.1% of the increased activity was ouabain-sensitive. Optimal pretreatment with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) (0.3 mg/ml) rendered both activities completely sensitive to inhibition by ouabain and reduced the basal Mg2+-ATPase activity by 70-90%. The K+-stimulated pNPPase activity doubled after preincubation in SDS, but the ATPase activity stimulated by Na+ plus K+ fell by 50% under these conditions. A similar pattern of apparent activation was produced by preincubation with deoxycholate (DOC), except that basal Mg2+-dependent activities were resistant to destruction by this detergent. The incremental responses to activation by ions and substrates, and inhibition by oubain, are consistent with the hypothesis that permeability-intact vesicles of sarcolemma are present in the isolated preparation, and that detergent activation renders the vesicles highly permeable to the ions, substrates, and ouabain.

Abstract
Purified (Na+, K+)-activated adenosine triphosphatase ((Na+, K+)-ATPase, ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) has been subjected to trypsin and chymotrypsin hydrolysis. The glycoprotein is much more resistant to proteolysis than the large chain. This differential susceptibility to proteolysis is not due to differences in the number of trypsin or chymotrypsin sensitive bonds because the two subunits are equally susceptible to proteolysis after isolation by preparative gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate. It is also not due to steric "shielding" of the glycoprotein by the large chain or its proteolytic products: (1) The rate of digestion of the glycoprotein is not increased after 90% of the large chain is digested. (2) The majority of the large chain peptides are released into the supernatant upon degradation. It is concluded that the greater resistance of the glycoprotein to proteolysis is due to its native conformation. In the absence of the large chain, the susceptibility of the glycoprotein to tryptic degradation by K+ and Na+. The evidence suggests that this decreased susceptibility was due to conformational changes in the glycoprotein. These specific ligand effects on proteolysis of the glycoprotein suggests that the glycoprotein may participate in Na+ and K+ binding by (Na+, K+)-ATPase.

Abstract
Recent work in our laboratory on the purification and characterization of the (sodium + potassium)-activated adenosinetriphosphatase (NaK ATPase) has been reviewed. Two enzymes have been purified, that from the rectal salt gland of the spiny dogfish, Squalus acanthias and that from the electric organ of the electric eel, Electrophorus electricus. The enzyme appears to consist of two catalytic subunits of molecular weight of about 95,000 and one glycoprotein with a molecular weight of about 50,000. The amino acid composition, N-terminal amino acids, and the carbohydrate composition of these subunits have been determined. The phospholipid composition of the holoenzyme has also been determined. The protein component shows very little variation with evolution, but the carbohydrate and phospholipid components show considerable variation. It has been possible to form vesicles from the purified enzyme from Squalus acanthias and to demonstrate the ATP-dependent, ouabain inhibitable, coupled uphill transports of Na+ and K+. The properties of these transports are very similar to those observed previously in intact erythrocytes or resealed erythrocyte ghosts with respect to asymmetries of binding sites, stoichiometries of Na+ and K+ transported, Na+-Na+ exchange, and K+-K+ exchange. It is concluded that the NaK ATPase is the molecular machine for effecting Na+ and K+ transport in the intact cell membrane.
