(Na +, K +)- ATPase kinetics in Macrobrachium pantanalense: highlighting intra- and interspecific variation within the Macrobrachium amazonicum complex. Comp Biochem Physiol B Biochem Mol Biol 2024; 273:110987.

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.

A kinetic characterization of the gill V(H +)-ATPase from two hololimnetic populations of the Amazon River shrimp Macrobrachium amazonicum. Comp Biochem Physiol B Biochem Mol Biol 2023; 268:110880. [PMID: 37517460 DOI: 10.1016/j.cbpb.2023.110880] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2023] [Revised: 07/27/2023] [Accepted: 07/27/2023] [Indexed: 08/01/2023]
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.

Salinity-dependent modulation by protein kinases and the FXYD2 peptide of gill (Na +, K +)-ATPase activity in the freshwater shrimp Macrobrachium amazonicum (Decapoda, Palaemonidae). BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA. BIOMEMBRANES 2022; 1864:183982.

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
We provide a kinetic characterization of (Na+, K+)-ATPase activity in a posterior gill microsomal fraction from the grapsid crab Goniopsis cruentata. (Na+, K+)-ATPase activity constitutes 95% of total ATPase activity, and sucrose density centrifugation reveals an ATPase activity peak between 25 and 35% sucrose, distributed into two, partially separated protein fractions. The (Na+, K+)-ATPase α-subunit is localized throughout the ionocyte cytoplasm and has an Mr of ≈ 10 kDa and hydrolyzes ATP obeying cooperative kinetics. Low (VM = 186.0 ± 9.3 nmol Pi min-1 mg-1 protein and K0.5 = 0.085 ± 0.004 mmol L-1) and high (VM = 153.4 ± 7.7 nmol Pi min-1 mg-1 protein and K0.5 = 0.013 ± 0.0006 mmol L-1) affinity ATP binding sites were characterized. At low ATP concentrations, excess Mg2+ stimulates the enzyme, triggering exposure of a high-affinity binding site that accounts for 50% of (Na+, K+)-ATPase activity. Stimulation by Mg2+ (VM = 425.9 ± 25.5 nmol Pi min-1 mg-1 protein, K0.5 = 0.16 ± 0.01 mmol L-1), K+ (VM = 485.3 ± 24.3 nmol Pi min-1 mg-1 protein, K0.5 = 0.9 ± 0.05 mmol L-1), Na+ (VM = 425.0 ± 23.4 nmol Pi min-1 mg-1 protein, K0.5 = 5.1 ± 0.3 mmol L-1) and NH4+ (VM = 497.9 ± 24.9 nmol Pi min-1 mg-1 protein, K0.5 = 9.7 ± 0.5 mmol L-1) obeys cooperative kinetics. Ouabain inhibits up to 95% of ATPase activity with KI = 196.6 ± 9.8 µmol L-1. This first kinetic characterization of the gill (Na+, K+)-ATPase in Goniopsis cruentata enables better comprehension of the biochemical underpinnings of osmoregulatory ability in this semi-terrestrial mangrove crab.
