Abstract
Many different reagents and methodologies have been utilised for the modification of synthetic and biological macromolecular systems. In addition, an area of intense research at present is the construction of hybrid biosynthetic polymers, comprised of biologically active species immobilised or complexed with synthetic polymers. One of the most useful and widely applicable techniques available for functionalisation of macromolecular systems involves indiscriminate carbene insertion processes. The highly reactive and non-specific nature of carbenes has enabled a multitude of macromolecular structures to be functionalised without the need for specialised reagents or additives. The use of diazirines as stable carbene precursors has increased dramatically over the past twenty years and these reagents are fast becoming the most popular photophors for photoaffinity labelling and biological applications in which covalent modification of macromolecular structures is the basis to understanding structure-activity relationships. This review reports the synthesis and application of a diverse range of diazirines in macromolecular systems.

Abstract
The cell membrane Na,K-ATPase is a member of the P-type family of active cation transport proteins. Recently the molecular structure of the related sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca-ATPase in an E1 conformation has been determined at 2.6 A resolution. Furthermore, theoretical models of the Ca-ATPase in E2 conformations are available. As a result of these developments, these structural data have allowed construction of homology models that address the central questions of mechanism of active cation transport by all P-type cation pumps. This review relates recent evidence on functional sites of Na,K-ATPase for the substrate (ATP), the essential cofactor (Mg(2+) ions), and the transported cations (Na(+) and K(+)) to the molecular structure. The essential elements of the Ca-ATPase structure, including 10 transmembrane helices and well-defined N, P, and A cytoplasmic domains, are common to all PII-type pumps such as Na,K-ATPase and H,K-ATPases. However, for Na,K-ATPase and H,K-ATPase, which consist of both alpha- and beta-subunits, there may be some detailed differences in regions of subunit interactions. Mutagenesis, proteolytic cleavage, and transition metal-catalyzed oxidative cleavages are providing much evidence about residues involved in binding of Na(+), K(+), ATP, and Mg(2+) ions and changes accompanying E1-E2 or E1-P-E2-P conformational transitions. We discuss this evidence in relation to N, P, and A cytoplasmic domain interactions, and long-range interactions between the active site and the Na(+) and K(+) sites in the transmembrane segments, for the different steps of the catalytic cycle.

Abstract
Recent reports that isolated Treponema pallidum outer membranes contain an ortholog for glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterase (GlpQ) (D. V. Shevchenko, D. R. Akins, E. J. Robinson, M. Li, O. V. Shevchenko, and J. D. Radolf, Infect. Immun. 65:4179-4189, 1997) and that this protein is a potential opsonic target for T. pallidum (C. E. Stebeck, J. M. Shaffer, T. W. Arroll, S. A. Lukehart, and W. C. Van Voorhis, FEMS Microbiol. Lett. 154:303-310, 1997) prompted a more detailed investigation of its physicochemical properties and cellular location. [14C]palmitate radiolabeling studies of a GlpQ-alkaline phosphatase fusion expressed in Escherichia coli confirmed the prediction from DNA sequencing that the protein is lipid modified. Studies using Triton X-114 phase partitioning revealed that the protein's amphiphilicity is due to lipid modification and that a substantial portion of the polypeptide is associated with the T. pallidum peptidoglycan sacculus. Three different approaches, i.e., (i) proteinase K treatment of intact treponemes, (ii) indirect immunofluorescence analysis of treponemes encapsulated in agarose beads, and (iii) opsonophagocytosis of treponemes incubated with antiserum against recombinant GlpQ by rabbit peritoneal macrophages, confirmed that GlpQ is entirely subsurface in T. pallidum. Moreover, rabbits hyperimmunized with GlpQ were not protected against intradermal challenge with virulent treponemes. Circular dichroism spectroscopy confirmed that the recombinant form of the polypeptide lacked discernible evidence of denaturation. Finally, GlpQ was not radiolabeled when T. pallidum outer membranes were incubated with 3-(trifluoromethyl)-3-(m-[125I]iodophenyl)-diazarene, a photoactivatable, lipophilic probe which promiscuously labels both proteins and lipids within phospholipid bilayers. Taken as a whole, these studies indicate that the T. pallidum GlpQ ortholog is a periplasmic protein associated predominantly with the spirochete's peptidoglycan-cytoplasmic membrane complex.

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
cDNA complementary to mRNA coding for the beta subunit of dog renal (Na+ + K+)-ATPase has been cloned into lambda gt11 and the nucleotide sequence of the DNA has been determined. The amino acid sequence of the beta subunit polypeptide has also been deduced from the DNA. The mature form of the dog kidney beta subunit contains 302 amino acids with three potential asparagine-linked attachment sites for carbohydrate. The initiation methionine is removed during processing of the polypeptide to its mature form. Although the beta subunit is an integral membrane protein there is no signal sequence for the polypeptide, and hydropathy analysis predicts that the beta subunit polypeptide spans the cell membrane only once. Secondary structure predictions and a model for the structure of the beta subunit are proposed. DNA sequencing of the 5' non-coding region of the mRNA revealed a 200 bp inverted repeat from the coding region. Blot hybridization of a fragment of the beta subunit cDNA identified a single mRNA species of 2.7 kb in dog kidney and several rat tissues. RNA from rat liver was deficient in mRNA that hybridized to the dog kidney beta subunit cDNA, although mRNA that hybridized to an alpha subunit cDNA was detected. RNA from a human hepatoma cell line, HepG2, however, contained comparable levels of mRNA for both the alpha and the beta subunits.

Abstract
cDNAs complementary to pig kidney mRNAs coding for alpha- and beta-subunits of Na+,K+-ATPase were cloned and sequenced. Selective tryptic hydrolysis of the alpha-subunit within the membrane-bound enzyme and tryptic hydrolysis of the immobilized isolated beta-subunit were also performed. The mature alpha- and beta-subunits contain 1016 and 302 amino acid residues, respectively. Structural data on the peptides from extramembrane regions of the alpha-subunit and on glycopeptides of the beta-subunit underlie a model for the transmembrane arrangement of Na+,K+-ATPase polypeptide chains.

Abstract
The sodium/potassium-dependent ATPase [(Na+ + K+)ATPase], which establishes and maintains the Na+ and K+ gradients across the plasma membrane of animal cells, consists of two subunits, alpha and beta. Complementary DNA clones encoding the catalytic (alpha) subunit of sheep kidney and Torpedo californica electroplax enzymes have previously been isolated and characterized. However, there is little information concerning the primary structure of the beta-subunit, a glycoprotein of unknown function and relative molecular mass (Mr) approximately 55,000 (ref. 3). Here we describe the isolation and characterization of a cDNA clone containing the entire coding region of the beta-subunit of the sheep kidney (Na+ + K+)ATPase. We also discuss structural aspects of the protein and present evidence for a possible evolutionary relationship with the KdpC subunit of the Escherichia coli K+-ATPase.

Abstract
Purified dog kidney (Na+,K+)-ATPase was reacted with tritiated sodium borohydride after treatment with neuraminidase and galactose oxidase. This procedure did not affect the ATPase activity of the enzyme, and all of the covalently bound radioactivity was found in the beta subunit (Mr 54 000). Papain digestion of the tritiated enzyme produced two labeled fragments of Mr 40 000 and 16 000. Further proteolysis generated an Mr 31 000 peptide from the larger fragment. Unlike the tryptic and chymotryptic sites of the alpha subunit, the sites of papain hydrolysis were insensitive to conformations of the (Na+,K+)-ATPase. Determination of the NH2-terminal sequences was used to arrange the fragments within the linear map of the beta chain. Finally, none of the labeled peptides was released from the membrane under nondenaturing conditions. These results are consistent with a model of the beta subunit containing a 40 000-dalton NH2-terminal piece and a 16 000-dalton COOH-terminal piece. Both fragments have extracellularly exposed carbohydrate and at least one membrane-bound domain.

Abstract
Prolonged incubation of membrane fragments containing homogeneous (Na+ + K+)-ATPase with Mg2+, K+ and VO-3 at 4 degrees C resulted in formation of two-dimensional crystals of this enzyme with unit cell parameters: a = 66 A, b = 118 A, gamma = 108 degrees. The crystals correspond to the two-sided plane group p21. By combining tilted electron microscopic views of the crystals, a three-dimensional structure of (Na+ + K+)- ATPase was calculated at approximately 20 A resolution. The unit cell is formed by two (alpha beta)-promoters which are in contact in their central parts. The structure was compared with chemical modification and immunochemical data; the arrangement of intra- and extramembrane domains was proposed.

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.
