(Na +, K +)- ATPase kinetics in Macrobrachium pantanalense: highlighting intra- and interspecific variation within the Macrobrachium amazonicum complex.

Abstract
The Macrobrachium amazonicum complex is composed of at least the Macrobrachium amazonicum and Macrobrachium pantanalense species, with the latter described from specimens originally identified as part of an endemic M. amazonicum population in the Brazilian Pantanal region. While there may be a reproductive barrier between these two Macrobrachium species, both are phylogenetically close, with small genetic distance. However, there is currently no available biochemical information of Macrobrachium pantanalense (Na+, K+)-ATPase. Here, we report the kinetic characteristics of the gill (Na+, K+)-ATPase in two populations of M. pantanalense from Baiazinha Lagoon (Miranda, MS, Brazil) and Araguari River (Uberlândia, MG, Brazil), and compare them with Macrobrachium amazonicum populations from the Paraná-Paraguay River Basin. (Na+, K+)-ATPase activities were 67.9 ± 3.4 and 93.3 ± 4.1 nmol Pi min-1 mg-1 protein for the Baiazinha Lagoon and Araguari River populations, respectively. Two ATP hydrolyzing sites were observed for the Araguari River population while a single ATP site was observed for the Baiazinha Lagoon shrimps. Compared to the Araguari River population, a 3-fold greater apparent affinity for Mg2+ and Na+ was estimated for the Baiazinha Lagoon population, but no difference in K+ affinity and ouabain inhibition was seen. The kinetic differences observed in the gill (Na+, K+)-ATPase between the two populations of M. pantanalense, compared with those of various M. amazonicum populations, highlight interspecific divergence within the Macrobrachium genus, now examined from a biochemical perspective.

Abstract
As a widely used pesticide, abamectin could be a threat to nontarget organisms. In this study, the toxic mechanism of abamectin on osmoregulation in Procambarus clarkii was explored for the first time. The results of this study showed that with increasing abamectin concentration, the membrane structures of gill filaments were damaged, with changes in ATPase activities, transporter contents, biogenic amine contents, and gene expression levels. The results of this study indicated that at 0.2 mg/L abamectin, ion diffusion could maintain osmoregulation. At 0.4 mg/L abamectin, passive transport was inhibited due to damage to the membrane structures of gill filaments, and active transport needed to be enhanced for osmoregulation. At 0.6 mg/L abamectin, the membrane structures of gill filaments were seriously damaged, and the expression level of osmoregulation-related genes decreased, but the organisms were still mobilizing various transporters, ATPases, and biogenic amines to address abamectin stress. This study provided a theoretical basis for further study of the effects of contaminations in aquatic environment on the health of crustaceans.

Abstract
This investigation examines the kinetic characteristics and effect of acclimation to a brackish medium (21 ‰S) on gill V(H+)-ATPase activity in two hololimnetic populations of M. amazonicum. We also investigate the cellular immunolocalization of the enzyme. Immunofluorescence findings demonstrate that the V(H+)-ATPase c-subunit is distributed in the apical pillar cells of shrimps in fresh water but is absent after acclimation to 21 ‰S for 10 days. V(H+)-ATPase activity from the Tietê River population is ≈50% greater than the Grande River population, comparable to a wild population from the Santa Elisa Reservoir, but is 2-fold less than in cultivated shrimps. V(H+)-ATPase activity in the Tietê and the Grande River shrimps is abolished after 21 ‰S acclimation. The apparent affinities of the V(H+)-ATPase for ATP (0.27 ± 0.04 and 0.16 ± 0.03 mmol L-1, respectively) and Mg2+ (0.28 ± 0.05 and 0.14 ± 0.02 mmol L-1, respectively) are similar in both populations. The absence of V(H+)-ATPase activity in salinity-acclimated shrimps and its apical distribution in shrimps in fresh water underpins the importance of the crustacean V(H+)-ATPase for ion uptake in fresh water.

Abstract
Life in fresh water is osmotically and energetically challenging for living organisms, requiring increases in ion uptake from dilute environments. However, mechanisms of ion uptake from freshwater environments are still poorly understood and controversial, especially in arthropods, for which several hypothetical models have been proposed based on incomplete data. One compelling model involves the proton pump V-type H+ ATPase (VHA), which energizes the apical membrane, enabling the uptake of Na+ (and other cations) via an unknown Na+ transporter (referred to as the "Wieczorek Exchanger" in insects). What evidence exists for this model of ion uptake and what is this mystery exchanger or channel that cooperates with VHA? We present results from studies that explore this question in crustaceans, insects, and teleost fish. We argue that the Na+/H+ antiporter (NHA) is a likely candidate for the Wieczorek Exchanger in many crustaceans and insects; although, there is no evidence that this is the case for fish. NHA was discovered relatively recently in animals and its functions have not been well characterized. Teleost fish exhibit redundancy of Na+ uptake pathways at the gill level, performed by different ion transporter paralogs in diverse cell types, apparently enabling tolerance of low environmental salinity and various pH levels. We argue that much more research is needed on overall mechanisms of ion uptake from freshwater habitats, especially on NHA and other potential Wieczorek Exchangers. Such insights gained would contribute greatly to our general understanding of ionic regulation in diverse species across habitats.

Abstract
The geographical distribution of aquatic crustaceans is determined by ambient factors like salinity that modulate their biochemistry, physiology, behavior, reproduction, development and growth. We investigated the effects of exogenous pig FXYD2 peptide and endogenous protein kinases A and C on gill (Na+, K+)-ATPase activity, and characterized enzyme kinetic properties in a freshwater population of Macrobrachium amazonicum in fresh water (<0.5 ‰ salinity) or acclimated to 21 ‰S. Stimulation by FXYD2 peptide and inhibition by endogenous kinase phosphorylation are salinity-dependent. While without effect in shrimps in fresh water, the FXYD2 peptide stimulated activity in salinity-acclimated shrimps by ≈50 %. PKA-mediated phosphorylation inhibited gill (Na+, K+)-ATPase activity by 85 % in acclimated shrimps while PKC phosphorylation markedly inhibited enzyme activity in freshwater- and salinity-acclimated shrimps. The (Na+, K+)-ATPase in salinity-acclimated shrimp gills hydrolyzed ATP at a Vmax of 54.9 ± 1.8 nmol min-1 mg-1 protein, corresponding to ≈60 % that of freshwater shrimps. Mg2+ affinity increased with salinity acclimation while K+ affinity decreased. (Ca2+, Mg2+)-ATPase activity increased while V(H+)- and Na+- or K+-stimulated activities decreased on salinity acclimation. The 120-kDa immunoreactive band expressed in salinity-acclimated shrimps suggests nonspecific α-subunit phosphorylation by PKA and/or PKC. These alterations in (Na+, K+)-ATPase kinetics in salinity-acclimated M. amazonicum may result from regulatory mechanisms mediated by phosphorylation via protein kinases A and C and the FXYD2 peptide rather than through the expression of a different α-subunit isoform. This is the first demonstration of gill (Na+, K+)-ATPase regulation by protein kinases in freshwater shrimps during salinity challenge.

Abstract
Nanoplastic, ubiquitous in aquatic environments, are raising concern worldwide. However, studies on nanoplastic exposure and its effects on ion transport in aquatic organisms are limited. In this study, the juvenile oriental river shrimp, Macrobrachium nipponense, was exposed to five levels of nanoplastic concentrations (0, 5, 10, 20, 40 mg/L) in order to evaluate cell viability, ion content, ion transport, ATPase activity, and related gene expression. The results showed that the apoptosis rate was higher in the high concentration nanoplastic group (40 mg/L) compared to the low concentration nanoplastic group (5 mg/L) and the control group (0 mg/L). The ion content of sodium (Na+), potassium (K+), chloride (Cl-), and calcium (Ca2+) showed a decreasing trend in gill tissue compared to the control group. The Na+K+-ATPase, V(H)-ATPase, Ca2+Mg2+-ATPase, and total ATPase activities in the gills of M. nipponense showed a general decrease with the increasement of nanoplastic concentration and time of exposure. When increasing nanoplastic concentration, the expression of ion transport-related genes in the gills of M. nipponense showed first rise then descend trend. As elucidated by the results, high nanoplastic concentrations have negative effect on cell viability, ion content, ion transport ATPase activity, and ion transport-related gene expression in the gills of M. nipponense. This research provides a theoretical foundation for the toxic effects of nanoplastic in aquaculture.

Abstract
Over recent years, Macrobrachium amazonicum has become a popular species for shrimp farming due to their fast growth, high survival rates, and marketability. Several studies have focused on the development of new technology for the culture of this species, but many aspects of their nutrition and physiology remain unknown. Thus, the goal of the present study was to obtain transcripts of putative genes encoding digestive enzymes, based on a library of the cDNA from the hepatopancreas of M. amazonicum, sequenced in the Ion TorrentTM platform. We identified fragments of nine genes related to digestive enzymes, acting over proteins, carbohydrates and lipids. Endo and exoproteases were also recorded in the hepatopancreas, indicating adaptation to the digestion of protein-rich foods. Nonetheless, the enzymes involved in the carbohydrate metabolism formed the largest functional group in M. amazonicum, including enzymes related to the digestion of starch, chitin, and cellulose. These findings indicate that the species has a genetic apparatus of a well-adapted omnivorous animal. This information may provide important insights for the selection of ingredients for the formulation of a more appropriate diet to the enzymatic repertoire of M. amazonicum.

Abstract
We examined the effects of exogenous dopamine on gill (Na+, K+)-ATPase activity in vitro in microsomal preparations from juvenile or adult freshwater shrimp, Macrobrachium amazonicum. Dopamine had no effect on enzyme activity in juveniles but stimulated activity in adult shrimp gills by ≈35%. Stimulation of the gill (Na+, K+)-ATPase in adult shrimps by 100 mmol L-1 dopamine was characterized kinetically by varying ATP, MgATP, and Na+ and K+ concentrations, together with inhibition by ouabain. Dopamine stimulated ATP hydrolysis by ≈40% obeying Michaelis-Menten kinetics, reaching VM = 190.5 ± 15.7 nmol Pi min-1 mg-1 protein, KM remaining unaltered. Stimulation by Na+ (≈50%) and K+ (≈25%) revealed distinct kinetic profiles: although KM values were similar, Na+ stimulation followed cooperative kinetics, contrasting with the Michaelian kinetics seen for K+. Stimulation by MgATP increased activity by ≈30% with little change in KM. Similar saturation profiles were seen for ouabain inhibition with very similar calculated KI values. Our findings suggest that dopamine may be involved in hemolymph sodium homeostasis by directly binding to the gill (Na+, K+)-ATPase at a site different from ouabain, thus stimulating enzyme activity in an ontogenetic stage-specific manner. However, dopamine binding does not affect enzyme affinity for cations and ouabain. This is the first report of the direct action of dopamine in stimulating the crustacean gill (Na+, K+)-ATPase.

Abstract
The effects of exposure to copper (Cu) on tissue Cu accumulation, on hemolymph osmotic, Na+ and Cl- regulation, and on gill Na+/K+-ATPase (NKA) and carbonic anhydrase (CA) activities were evaluated in the fiddler crab Minuca rapax. Waterborne copper was delivered to the crabs at one of three salinities (seawater at 25‰ salinity [S] = isosmotic control; distilled water [<0.1‰ S] = hypo-osmotic medium; or 60‰ S = hyper-osmotic seawater) either for 5 days in a 0.5-cm water film containing 0, 50, 150, 250 or 500µg Cu/L with free access to a dry surface, or in crabs fully submerged for 5h at 0, 250 or 500µg Cu/L. In the crabs with free access to a dry surface, the highest Cu concentrations were found in the hemolymph and hepatopancreas with some accumulation in the gills; accumulation in the hemolymph and gills was enhanced in low salinity but was salinity independent in the hepatopancreas. Osmotic regulation was unaffected by Cu exposure; however Na+ and Cl- hypo- regulation was impaired by Cu in 25 and 60‰ S. Gill NKA activity was stimulated 2-fold at 50µg Cu/L and markedly inhibited at 150µg Cu/L and above in 0 and 25‰ S. Gill CA was inhibited in <0.1‰ S but stimulated in 25 and 60‰ S; an inverse concentration-CA activity response was seen above 150µg Cu/L for all salinities. In the submerged crabs, Cu accumulated in all tissues in 60‰ S; however, there was no clear-cut Cu concentration-accumulation relationship evident in any tissue for either exposure regime, likely owing to the crabs' ability to regulate Cu. Copper exposure diminished osmotic, [Na+] and [Cl-] hypo-regulatory ability, especially in higher salinities. Gill NKA activity was markedly inhibited by Cu overall, and particularly above 250µg Cu/L in <0.1‰ S. Gill CA activity was inhibited in 25‰ S but inconsistently affected in 0 and 60‰ S. These findings show that Minuca rapax is affected both physiologically and biochemically by Cu contamination, although to different degrees, depending on the delivery regime, salinity, copper concentration and target tissue.

Abstract
We provide a kinetic characterization of (Na+, K+)-ATPase activity in a posterior gill microsomal fraction from the semi-terrestrial mangrove crab Cardisoma guanhumi. Sucrose density gradient centrifugation reveals two distinct membrane fractions showing considerable (Na+, K+)-ATPase activity, but also containing other microsomal ATPases. The (Na+, K+)-ATPase, notably immuno-localized to the apical region of the epithelial pillar cells, and throughout the pillar cell bodies, has an M r of around 110 kDa and hydrolyzes ATP with V M = 146.8 ± 6.3 nmol Pi min-1 mg protein-1 and K M = 0.05 ± 0.003 mmol L-1 obeying Michaelis-Menten kinetics. While stimulation by Na+ (V M = 139.4 ± 6.9 nmol Pi min-1 mg protein-1, K M = 4.50 ± 0.22 mmol L-1) also follows Michaelis-Menten kinetics, modulation of (Na+, K+)-ATPase activity by MgATP (V M = 136.8 ± 6.5 nmol Pi min-1 mg protein-1, K 0.5 = 0.27 ± 0.04 mmol L-1), K+ (V M = 140.2 ± 7.0 nmol Pi min-1 mg protein-1, K 0.5 = 0.17 ± 0.008 mmol L-1), and NH4+ (V M = 149.1 ± 7.4 nmol Pi min-1 mg protein-1, K 0.5 = 0.60 ± 0.03 mmol L-1) shows cooperative kinetics. Ouabain (K I = 52.0 ± 2.6 µmol L-1) and orthovanadate (K I = 1.0 ± 0.05 µmol L-1) inhibit total ATPase activity by around 75%. At low Mg2+ concentrations, ATP is an allosteric modulator of the enzyme. This is the first study to provide a kinetic characterization of the gill (Na+, K+)-ATPase in C. guanhumi, and will be useful in better comprehending the biochemical underpinnings of osmoregulatory ability in a semi-terrestrial mangrove crab.

Abstract
We characterize the kinetic properties of a gill (Na(+), K(+))-ATPase from the pelagic marine seabob Xiphopenaeus kroyeri. Sucrose density gradient centrifugation revealed membrane fractions distributed mainly into a heavy fraction showing considerable (Na(+), K(+))-ATPase activity, but also containing mitochondrial F0F1- and Na(+)- and V-ATPases. Western blot analysis identified a single immunoreactive band against the (Na(+), K(+))-ATPase α-subunit with an Mr of ≈ 110 kDa. The α-subunit was immunolocalized to the intralamellar septum of the gill lamellae. The (Na(+), K(+))-ATPase hydrolyzed ATP obeying Michaelis-Menten kinetics with VM = 109.5 ± 3.2 nmol Pi min(-1) mg(-1) and KM = 0.03 ± 0.003 mmol L(-1). Mg(2+) (VM = 109.8 ± 2.1 nmol Pi min(-1 )mg(-1), K0.5 = 0.60 ± 0.03 mmol L(-1)), Na(+) (VM = 117.6 ± 3.5 nmol Pi min(-1 ) mg(-1), K0.5 = 5.36 ± 0.14 mmol L(-1)), K(+) (VM = 112.9 ± 1.4 nmol Pi min(-1 )mg(-1), K0.5 = 1.32 ± 0.08 mmol L(-1)), and NH4 (+) (VM = 200.8 ± 7.1 nmol Pi min(-1 )mg(-1), K0.5 = 2.70 ± 0.04 mmol L(-1)) stimulated (Na(+), K(+))-ATPase activity following site-site interactions. K(+) plus NH4 (+) does not synergistically stimulate (Na(+), K(+))-ATPase activity, although each ion modulates affinity of the other. The enzyme exhibits a single site for K(+) binding that can be occupied by NH4 (+), stimulating the enzyme. Ouabain (KI = 84.0 ± 2.1 µmol L(-1)) and orthovanadate (KI = 0.157 ± 0.001 µmol L(-1)) inhibited total ATPase activity by ≈ 50 and ≈ 44 %, respectively. Ouabain inhibition increases ≈ 80 % in the presence of NH4 (+) with a threefold lower KI, suggesting that NH4 (+) is likely transported as a K(+) congener.

Modulation by K+ Plus NH4+ of microsomal (Na+, K+)-ATPase activity in selected ontogenetic stages of the diadromous river shrimp Macrobrachium amazonicum (Decapoda, Palaemonidae). PLoS One 2014; 9:e89625. [PMID: 24586919 PMCID: PMC3931822 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0089625] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2013] [Accepted: 01/21/2014] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
We investigate the synergistic stimulation by K+ plus NH4+ of (Na+, K+)-ATPase activity in microsomal preparations of whole zoea I and decapodid III, and in juvenile and adult river shrimp gills. Modulation of (Na+, K+)-ATPase activity is ontogenetic stage-specific, and particularly distinct between juveniles and adults. Although both gill enzymes exhibit two different sites for K+ and NH4+ binding, in the juvenile enzyme, these two sites are equivalent: binding by both ions results in slightly stimulated activity compared to that of a single ionic species. In the adult enzyme, the sites are not equivalent: when one ion occupies its specific binding site, (Na+, K+)-ATPase activity is stimulated synergistically by ≈50% on binding of the complementary ion. Immunolocalization reveals the enzyme to be distributed predominantly throughout the intralamellar septum in the gill lamellae of juveniles and adults. Western blot analyses demonstrate a single immunoreactive band, suggesting a single (Na+, K+)-ATPase α-subunit isoform that is distributed into different density membrane fractions, independently of ontogenetic stage. We propose a model for the modulation by K+ and NH4+ of gill (Na+, K+)-ATPase activity. These findings suggest that the gill enzyme may be regulated by NH4+ during ontogenetic development in M. amazonicum.
