Abstract
Growth hormone (GH) is involved in the parr–smolt transformation of salmonid fishes and is known to improve salinity tolerance. This study compared the capacity for seawater acclimation of GH transgenic coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch (Walbaum, 1792)) to that of wild-type fish, allowing examination of responses to sustained (chronic) exposure to elevated GH. GH transgenic fish (GH TG) smolted 1 year in advance of wild-type salmon and showed a greater capacity to hypo-osmoregulate in seawater. As GH TG fish were much larger than the wild-type fish, a second experiment was conducted with three size-matched groups of coho salmon (a 1+-year-old wild-type group, a 1+-year-old ration-restricted GH TG group, and a 0+-year-old fully fed GH TG group). When size-matched, the effect of GH transgenesis was not as dramatic, but the feed-rationed TG1+ group exhibited smaller deviations in plasma ion and osmolality levels following seawater exposure than did the other groups, suggesting a somewhat improved hypo-osmoregulatory ability. These results support a role for GH in the development of seawater tolerance by salmonid fishes independent of fish size.

Broad substrate specificity of phosphotransbutyrylase from Listeria monocytogenes: A potential participant in an alternative pathway for provision of acyl CoA precursors for fatty acid biosynthesis. BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA 2016; 1861:1102-1110. [PMID: 27320015 PMCID: PMC4947441 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbalip.2016.06.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2016] [Revised: 05/20/2016] [Accepted: 06/10/2016] [Indexed: 12/22/2022]
Abstract
Listeria monocytogenes, the causative organism of the serious food-borne disease listeriosis, has a membrane abundant in branched-chain fatty acids (BCFAs). BCFAs are normally biosynthesized from branched-chain amino acids via the activity of branched chain α-keto acid dehydrogenase (Bkd), and disruption of this pathway results in reduced BCFA content in the membrane. Short branched-chain carboxylic acids (BCCAs) added as media supplements result in incorporation of BCFAs arising from the supplemented BCCAs in the membrane of L. monocytogenes bkd mutant MOR401. High concentrations of the supplements also effect similar changes in the membrane of the wild type organism with intact bkd. Such carboxylic acids clearly act as fatty acid precursors, and there must be an alternative pathway resulting in the formation of their CoA thioester derivatives. Candidates for this are the enzymes phosphotransbutyrylase (Ptb) and butyrate kinase (Buk), the products of the first two genes of the bkd operon. Ptb from L. monocytogenes exhibited broad substrate specificity, a strong preference for branched-chain substrates, a lack of activity with acetyl CoA and hexanoyl CoA, and strict chain length preference (C3-C5). Ptb catalysis involved ternary complex formation. Additionally, Ptb could utilize unnatural branched-chain substrates such as 2-ethylbutyryl CoA, albeit with lower efficiency, consistent with a potential involvement of this enzyme in the conversion of the carboxylic acid additives into CoA primers for BCFA biosynthesis.

Abstract
In this work, we find an equilibrium between different Na,K-ATPase (NKA) oligomeric species solubilized in a non-ionic detergent C12E8 by means of Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS), Analytical Ultracentrifugation (AUC), Small Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS), Spectrophotometry (absorption at 280/350nm) and enzymatic activity assay. The NKA sample after chromatography purification presented seven different populations as identified by AUC, with monomers and tetramers amounting to ∼55% of the total protein mass in solution. These two species constituted less than 40% of the total protein mass after increasing the NKA concentration. Removal of higher-order oligomer/aggregate species from the NKA solution using 220nm-pore filter resulted in an increase of the specific enzymatic activity. Nevertheless, the enzyme forms new large aggregates over an elapsed time of 20h. The results thus point out that C12E8-solubilized NKA is in a dynamic equilibrium of monomers, tetramers and high-order oligomers/subunit aggregates. These latter have low or null activity. High amount of detergent leads to the dissociation of NKA into smaller aggregates with no enzymatic activity.

Abstract
The full-length complementary (c)DNA of vacuolar-type-H(+) -ATPase B1 gene (vhab1) in marbled eel Anguilla marmorata with 1741 base pairs (bp) was identified. It contained a 1512 bp open reading frame encoding a polypeptide with 503 amino acids (55·9 kDa), an 83 bp 5'-untranslated region (UTR) and a 146 bp 3'-UTR. The expression levels of A. marmorata vhab1 in gill and kidney of A. marmorata were evaluated at different intervals during the exposure to various salinities (0, 10 and 25). The results indicated that the expression levels of A. marmorata vhab1 messenger (m)RNA in gill and kidney had a significant increase and reached the highest level at 1 h in brackish water (BW, salinity 10) group and 6 h in seawater (SW, salinity 25) group. Therefore, salinity did affect the relative expression level of A. marmorata vhab1 mRNA in gills, which exhibited the enhancement by c. 44 times in SW group when compared with that in fresh water. No remarkable difference in the expression of A. marmorata vhab1 mRNA was observed after 15 days of SW exposure (P > 0·05). V-H(+) -ATPase activity exhibited an increase by two- to three-fold when compared with that in gill and kidney from the control group. The consequence primarily suggested that A. marmorata vhab1 gene product in elvers from A. marmorata plays an important role in adaptation response to SW.

Abstract
Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase, an integral membrane protein, has been studied for over a half century with respect to its transporter function in the plasma membrane, where it expels three Na(+) ions from the cell in exchange for two K(+) ions. In this study, we demonstrate a functioning Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase within HEK293 cell nuclei. This subcellular localization was confirmed by western blotting, ouabain-sensitive ATPase activity of the nuclear membrane fraction, immunocytochemistry and delivery of fluorescently tagged Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase α- and β-subunits. In addition, we observed an overlap between nuclear Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase and Na/Ca-exchanger (NCX) when nuclei were immunostained with commercially available Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase and NCX antibodies, suggesting a concerted physiological coupling between these transporters. In keeping with this, we observed an ATP-dependent, strophanthidin-sensitive Na(+) flux into the nuclear envelope (NE) lumen loaded with the Na-sensitive dye, CoroNa-Green. Analogous experiments using Fluo-5N, a low affinity Ca(2+) indicator, demonstrated a similar ATP-dependent and strophanthidin-sensitive Ca(2+) flux into the NE lumen. Our results reveal an intracellular physiological role for the coordinated efforts of the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase and NCX to actively remove Ca(2+) from the nucleoplasm into the NE lumen (i.e. the nucleoplasmic reticulum).

Abstract
Few studies have examined changes in salmon gill ion transporter expression during the transition from seawater to freshwater, a pivotal moment in the salmonid life cycle. Seawater-acclimated Atlantic salmon were transferred to freshwater and blood and gill tissue were sampled over 30 days of acclimation. Salmon held in seawater had stable plasma osmolality and sodium and chloride levels throughout the experiment. Following freshwater exposure, plasma sodium and chloride levels and total osmolality decreased significantly before returning towards control levels over time. Gill H(+)-ATPase activity increased by more than 45% 14 days after exposure to freshwater, whereas H(+)-ATPase mRNA levels were not affected by the salinity change. Within 4 days of freshwater exposure, gill Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase activity increased ∼43% over control levels, remaining significantly higher until the 30 day sampling group when it declined back to control levels. This increase in activity was associated with a more than 7-fold increase in Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase isoform α1a mRNA level and a ∼60% decrease in Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase isoform β1b mRNA level. The mRNA levels of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase isoforms α1c and α3 did not change as a result of freshwater exposure. The time courses for mRNA expression of the small membrane protein FXYD 11 and the β1-subunit were very similar, with levels increasing significantly 7 days following freshwater exposure before subsiding back to control levels at 30 days. Taken together, these data suggest an important role for Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase in freshwater acclimation in Atlantic salmon.

Abstract
Analysis of suppressors that alleviate the acute envelope stress phenotype of a ΔbamBΔdegP strain of Escherichia coli identified a novel protein MzrA and pleiotropic envZ mutations. Genetic evidence shows that overexpression of MzrA – formerly known as YqjB and EcfM – modulates the activity of EnvZ/OmpR similarly to pleiotropic EnvZ mutants and alter porin expression. However, porin expression in strains devoid of MzrA or overexpressing it is still sensitive to medium osmolarity, pH and procaine, all of which modulate EnvZ/OmpR activities. Thus, MzrA appears to alter the output of the EnvZ/OmpR system but not its ability to receive and respond to various environmental signals. Localization and topology experiments indicate that MzrA is a type II membrane protein, with its N-terminus exposed in the cytoplasm and C-terminus in the periplasm. Bacterial two-hybrid experiments determined that MzrA specifically interacts with EnvZ but not with OmpR or the related membrane sensor kinase, CpxA. This and additional genetic and biochemical evidence suggest that the interaction of MzrA with EnvZ would either enhance EnvZ's kinase activity or reduce its phosphatase activity, thus elevating the steady state levels of OmpR∼P. Furthermore, our data show that MzrA links the two-component envelope stress response regulators, CpxA/CpxR and EnvZ/OmpR.

Abstract
Recombinant Ca(2+)-ATPase from tomato (i.e. LCA1 for Lycopersicon esculentum [Since the identification and naming of LCA1, the scientific name for the tomato has been changed to Solanum lycopersicum.] Ca-ATPase) was heterologously expressed in yeast for structure-function characterization. We investigate the differences between plant and animal Ca pumps utilizing comparisons between chicken and rabbit SERCA-type pumps with Arabidopsis (ECA1) and tomato plant (LCA1) Ca(2+)-ATPases. Enzyme function was confirmed by the ability of each Ca(2+)-ATPase to rescue K616 growth on EGTA-containing agar and directly via in vitro ATP hydrolysis. We found LCA1 to be approximately 300-fold less sensitive to thapsigargin than animal SERCAs, whereas ECA1 was thapsigargin-resistant. LCA1 showed typical pharmacological sensitivities to cyclopiazonic acid, vanadate, and eosin, consistent with it being a P(IIA)-type Ca(2+)-ATPase. Possible amino acid changes responsible for the reduced plant thapsigargin-sensitivity are discussed. We found that LCA1 also complemented K616 yeast growth in the presence of Mn(2+), consistent with moving Mn(2+) into the secretory pathway and functionally compensating for the lack of secretory pathway Ca-ATPases (SPCAs) in plants.

Abstract
Previously, it was demonstrated that acetate anions increase the higher oligomer (H), consuming (alphabeta) 2-diprotomer (D) and alphabeta-protomer (P) of solubilized dog kidney Na (+)/K (+)-ATPase [ Kobayashi, T. et al. (2007) J. Biochem. 142, 157-173 ]. Presently, short-chain fatty acids, such as propionate (Prop) and butyrate, have been substituted effectively for acetate. The molecular weight of 6.01 x 10 (5) for H and quantitative Na (+)/K (+)-dependent interconversion among H, D, and P showed that H was an (alphabeta) 4-tetraprotomer (T). T was optimally isolated from the enzyme solubilized in aqueous 40 mM K (+)Prop at pH 5.6 by gel chromatography performed at 0 degrees C with elution buffer containing synthetic dioleoyl phosphatidylserine (PS). K 0.5 values of K (+)-congeners constituting K (+)Prop for the maximal amount of T were NH 4 (+) >> Rb (+) congruent with K (+) > Tl (+), while Na (+) had no effect. The oligomers of T, D, and P were simultaneously assayed for ATPase upon elution from the gel column, resulting in a specific activity ratio of 1:2:2. The activity of the chromatographically isolated T increased with an increasing dioleoyl PS, giving a saturated activity of 2.38 units/mg at pH 5.6 and 25 degrees C, and the active enzyme chromatography of T showed 34% dissociation into D by exposing it at 25 degrees C. On the basis of these data, the specific ATPase activities of T, D, and P were concluded to be 32, 65, and 65 units/mg, respectively, under the conventionally optimal conditions of pH 7.3 and 37 degrees C, suggesting an equivalence to a fully active enzyme for D and P but half activity for T. The physiological significance of the stable form of T remains to be investigated.

Abstract
We examined the effect of extracellular terbium (Tb(3+)) and divalent metal cations (Ca(2+), Sr(2+), and Ba(2+)) on (86)Rb(+) influx into rabbit and human red blood cells. We found that Tb(3+) at 15 and 25 microM was a non-competitive inhibitor of (86)Rb(+) influx suggesting that Tb(3+) is not binding to the transport site. This result reduces the usefulness of Tb(3+) as a potential probe for the E(out) conformation (the conformation with the transport site facing extracellularly). Ba(2+), Sr(2+) and Ca(2+), at concentrations >50 mM, had minimal effects on Rb(+) influx into red blood cells (1 mM Rb-out). This suggests that the outside transport site is very specific for monovalent cations over divalent cations, in contrast to the inside transport site. We also found that chrysoidine (4-phenylazo-m-phenylenediamine) competes with Na(+) for ATPase activity and K(+) for pNPPase activity suggesting it is binding to the E(in) conformation. Chrysoidine and similar compounds may be useful as optical probes of the E(in) conformation.

Abstract
Eosin is a probe for the Na pump nucleotide site. In contrast to previous studies examining eosin effects on Na only ATPase, we examined Na,K-ATPase- and K-activated pNPPase activity in red blood cell membranes and purified renal Na,K-ATPase. At saturating ATP (3 mM) the eosin IC(50) for Na pump inhibition was 19 microM. Increasing ATP concentrations (0.2-2.5 mM) did not overcome eosin-induced inhibition, thus eosin is a mixed-type inhibitor of ATPase activity. To test if eosin can bind to the high-affinity ATP site, purified Na,K-ATPase was labeled with 20 microM FITC. With increasing eosin concentrations (0.1 microM-10 microM) the incorporation of FITC into the ATP site significantly decreases suggesting that eosin prevents FITC reaction at the high-affinity ATP site. Eosin was a more potent inhibitor of K-activated phosphatase activity than of Na,K-ATPase activity. At 5 mM pNPP the eosin IC(50) for Na pump inhibition was 3.8+/-0.23 microM. Increasing pNPP concentrations (0.45-14.5 mM) did not overcome eosin-induced inhibition, thus eosin is a mixed-type inhibitor of pNPPase activity. These results can be fit by a model in which eosin and ATP bind only to the nucleotide site; in some pump conformations, this site is rigid and the binding is mutually exclusive and in other conformations, the site is flexible and able to accommodate both eosin and ATP (or pNPP). Interestingly, eosin inhibition of pNPPase became competitive after the addition of C(12)E(8) (0.1%) but the inhibition of ATPase remained mixed.

Abstract
Adenylyl cyclase is activated by prostaglandin E and inhibited by mu-opioids. Since cAMP-related events influence the activity of the Na Pump and its biochemical correlate Na,K-ATPase in many systems, we tested the hypothesis that prostaglandin E1 and [D-Ala2,N-Me-Phe4,Gly5-ol]-enkephalin (DAMGO), a mu-opioid agonist, have opposing actions on Na,K-ATPase activity. Studies were conducted with alamethicin-permeabilized SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells. Prostaglandin E1 (1 microM) transiently inhibited Na,K-ATPase activity for 10-15 min. A direct activator of protein kinase A, 8-Br-cAMP (150 and 500 microM), also inhibited, but more rapidly and for a shorter duration. Both DAMGO (1 microM) and Rp-adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphorothioate (500 microM), a protein kinase A-inhibitor, reversed the inhibitory effect of prostaglandin E1. DAMGO alone (1 microM) stimulated Na,K-ATPase activity up to nearly three-fold control activity. The stimulatory action of DAMGO was blocked by cyclosporine A (2 microM), an inhibitor of calcineurin, and was dependent on Ca2+ entry through nifedipine-sensitive Ca2+ channels. In the presence of 1 mM EGTA, DAMGO inhibited Na,K-ATPase activity. DAMGO-induced inhibition was blocked by the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor antagonist xestospongin C (1 microM). Na,K-ATPase is poised to modulate neuronal excitability through its roles in maintaining the membrane potential and transmembrane ion gradients. The differential effects of prostaglandin E1 and opioids on Na,K-ATPase activity may be related to their actions in hyperalgesia.

Abstract
This paper describes a rapid and sensitive method to determine inorganic phosphate, even in the presence of labile organic phosphate compounds and large quantities of proteins. The method eliminates the use of sodium arsenite, a highly toxic compound, substituting bismuth citrate for it to stabilize the phosphomolybdic acid complex formed during the interaction of inorganic phosphate and molybdate reduced by ascorbic acid. This method has also been adapted to microplates and has been used to determine the activities of Na/K ATPase and alkaline phosphatase of intestinal basolateral and luminal plasma membranes.

Abstract
The quaternary amine, bretylium, is a class III antiarrhythmic drug used to treat ventricular tachycardia and fibrillation. The primary mode of action for bretylium is thought to be inhibition of voltage-gated K(+) channels. While the Na,K-ATPase has been the pharmacological target of cardiac glycosides for over a century, recent evidence has shown that bretylium may also inhibit the Na pump. Our experimental findings support and extend these previous reports and provide definitive evidence supporting the previous suggestion that bretylium and K compete for the Na pump. We find that bretylium inhibits the Na pump in a dose-dependent manner in both Na,K-ATPase (IC(50) 4.5 mM) and Rb flux experiments (IC(50) 3.5 mM). Furthermore, we show that bretylium and Rb(+) competes for an extracellular site by measuring ouabain-sensitive (86)Rb flux in intact human red blood cells; that is, there is an apparent increase in K(m) for Rb(+) in the presence of 5 mM bretylium, while V(max) remains unchanged. We also determined that unlike K(+), bretylium does not facilitate the hydrolysis of E2-P. However, it stabilizes this conformation by reducing the ability of K(+) to facilitate dephosphorylation. Finally, we show that bretylium, like K(+), reduces [(3)H]ouabain binding to the Na pump. Taken together, these data are consistent with bretylium binding to the extracellular facing cation site within the E2-P state of the enzyme. Moreover, these findings suggest that bretylium may serve as an effective tool for freezing the pump in an extracellularly cation-bound phosphorylated intermediate, which will aid in future structural analyses.

Abstract
Chloro(2,2':6',2"-terpyridine) platinum, a bulky, hydrophilic reagent, inhibited the renal sodium pump with a single exponential time course. K(+) increased the rate constant of the reaction by about twofold; the K(+) concentration dependence was monotonic, with a half-maximal effect observed at 1 mM, consistent with K(+) acting at a transport site. Na(+), Mg(2+), eosin, and vanadate did not significantly alter the rate of reaction. The results of proteolysis and mass spectrometer analysis were consistent with terpyridine platinum labeling of Cys452, Cys456, or Cys457. Because phenylarsine oxide reacts with vicinal cysteines and did not prevent terpyridine platinum modification, terpyridine platinum most likely modifies Cys452. This modification prevents ADP binding; interestingly, the analogous residue in sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA) is on the exterior of the nucleotide-binding pocket. Thus it appears that the terpyridine platinum residue is more accessible in the presence of K(+) than in its absence and that terpyridine platinum modification prevents nucleotide binding.

Abstract
The Na(+)-dependent or E1 stages of the Na,K-ATPase reaction require a few micromolar ATP, but submillimolar concentrations are needed to accelerate the K(+)-dependent or E2 half of the cycle. Here we use Co(NH(3))(4)ATP as a tool to study ATP sites in Na,K-ATPase. The analogue inactivates the K(+) phosphatase activity (an E2 partial reaction) and the Na,K-ATPase activity in parallel, whereas ATP-[(3)H]ADP exchange (an E1 reaction) is affected less or not at all. Although the inactivation occurs as a consequence of low affinity Co(NH(3))(4)ATP binding (K(D) approximately 0.4-0.6 mm), we can also measure high affinity equilibrium binding of Co(NH(3))(4)[(3)H]ATP (K(D) = 0.1 micro m) to the native enzyme. Crucially, we find that covalent enzyme modification with fluorescein isothiocyanate (which blocks E1 reactions) causes little or no effect on the affinity of the binding step preceding Co(NH(3))(4)ATP inactivation and only a 20% decrease in maximal inactivation rate. This suggests that fluorescein isothiocyanate and Co(NH(3))(4)ATP bind within different enzyme pockets. The Co(NH(3))(4)ATP enzyme was solubilized with C(12)E(8) to a homogeneous population of alphabeta protomers, as verified by analytical ultracentrifugation; the solubilization did not increase the Na,K-ATPase activity of the Co(NH(3))(4)ATP enzyme with respect to parallel controls. This was contrary to the expectation for a hypothetical (alphabeta)(2) membrane dimer with a single ATP site per protomer, with or without fast dimer/protomer equilibrium in detergent solution. Besides, the solubilized alphabeta protomer could be directly inactivated by Co(NH(3))(4)ATP, to less than 10% of the control Na,K-ATPase activity. This suggests that the inactivation must follow Co(NH(3))(4)ATP binding at a low affinity site in every protomeric unit, thus still allowing ATP and ADP access to phosphorylation and high affinity ATP sites.

Abstract
The Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase is a heterodimeric plasma membrane protein responsible for cellular ionic homeostasis in nearly all animal cells. It has been shown that some insect cells (e.g., High Five cells) have no (or extremely low) Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity. We expressed sheep kidney Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase alpha- and beta-subunits individually and together in High Five cells via the baculovirus expression system. We used quantitative slot-blot analyses to determine that the expressed Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase comprises between 0.5% and 2% of the total membrane protein in these cells. Using a five-step sucrose gradient (0.8-2.0 M) to separate the endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, and plasma membrane fractions, we observed functional Na(+) pump molecules in each membrane pool and characterized their properties. Nearly all of the expressed protein functions normally, similar to that found in purified dog kidney enzyme preparations. Consequently, the measurements described here were not complicated by an abundance of nonfunctional heterologously expressed enzyme. Specifically, ouabain-sensitive ATPase activity, [(3)H]ouabain binding, and cation dependencies were measured for each fraction. The functional properties of the Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase were essentially unaltered after assembly in the endoplasmic reticulum. In addition, we measured ouabain-sensitive (86)Rb(+) uptake in whole cells as a means to specifically evaluate Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase molecules that were properly folded and delivered to the plasma membrane. We could not measure any ouabain-sensitive activities when either the alpha-subunit or beta-subunit were expressed individually. Immunostaining of the separate membrane fractions indicates that the alpha-subunit, when expressed alone, is degraded early in the protein maturation pathway (i.e., the endoplasmic reticulum) but that the beta-subunit is processed normally and delivered to the plasma membrane. Thus it appears that only the alpha-subunit has an oligomeric requirement for maturation and trafficking to the plasma membrane. Furthermore, assembly of the alpha-beta heterodimer within the endoplasmic reticulum apparently does not require a Na(+) pump-specific chaperone.

Abstract
Thermal denaturation can help elucidate protein domain substructure. We previously showed that the Na,K-ATPase partially unfolded when heated to 55 degrees C (Arystarkhova, E., Gibbons, D. L., and Sweadner, K. J. (1995) J. Biol. Chem. 270, 8785-8796). The beta subunit unfolded without leaving the membrane, but three transmembrane spans (M8-M10) and the C terminus of the alpha subunit were extruded, while the rest of alpha retained its normal topology with respect to the lipid bilayer. Here we investigated thermal denaturation further, with several salient results. First, trypsin sensitivity at both surfaces of alpha was increased, but not sensitivity to V8 protease, suggesting that the cytoplasmic domains and extruded domain were less tightly packed but still retained secondary structure. Second, thermal denaturation was accompanied by SDS-resistant aggregation of alpha subunits as dimers, trimers, and tetramers without beta or gamma subunits. This implies specific alpha-alpha contact. Third, the gamma subunit, like the C-terminal spans of alpha, was selectively lost from the membrane. This suggests its association with M8-M10 rather than the more firmly anchored transmembrane spans. The picture that emerges is of a Na,K-ATPase complex of alpha, beta, and gamma subunits in which alpha can associate in assemblies as large as tetramers via its cytoplasmic domain, while beta and gamma subunits associate with alpha primarily in its C-terminal portion, which has a unique structure and thermal instability.

Abstract
Irreversible inactivation of membranous Na,K-ATPase by high-speed centrifugation in dilute aqueous solutions depends markedly on the protonation state of the protein. Pig kidney Na,K-ATPase is irreversibly inactivated at pH 5 but is fully protected at pH 7 and above. Shark rectal gland Na,K-ATPase is irreversibly inactivated at neutral or acidic pH and partially protected at an alkaline pH. The overall Na,K-ATPase activity and the K-dependent pNPPase activity were denatured in parallel. Cryoprotectants such as glycerol or sucrose at concentrations of 25-30% fully protect both enzymes against inactivation. The specific ligands NaCl and KCl protect the Na,K-ATPase activity partially and the pNPPase activity fully at concentrations of 0.2-0.3 M. Electron microscope analysis of the centrifuged Na,K-ATPase membranes revealed that the ultrastructure of the native membranes is preserved upon inactivation. It was also observed that the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca-ATPase and hog gastric H, K-ATPase are susceptible to inactivation by high-speed centrifugation in a pH-dependent fashion. H,K-ATPase is protected at alkaline pH, whereas Ca-ATPase is protected only in the neutral pH range.

Abstract
We have mapped the membrane topology of the renal Na,K-ATPase alpha-subunit by using a combination of introduced cysteine mutants and surface labeling with a membrane impermeable Cys-directed reagent, N-biotinylaminoethyl methanethiosulfonate. To begin our investigation, two cysteine residues (Cys(911) and Cys(964)) in the wild-type alpha-subunit were substituted to create a background mutant devoid of exposed cysteines (Lutsenko, S., Daoud, S., and Kaplan, J. H. (1997) J. Biol. Chem. 272, 5249-5255). Into this background construct were then introduced single cysteines in each of the five putative extracellular loops (P118C, T309C, L793C, L876C, and M973C) and the resulting alpha-subunit mutants were co-expressed with the beta-subunit in baculovirus-infected insect cells. All of our expressed Na,K-ATPase mutants were functionally active. Their ATPase, phosphorylation, and ouabain binding activities were measured, and the turnover of the phosphoenzyme intermediate was close to the wild-type enzyme, suggesting that they are folded properly in the infected cells. Incubation of the insect cells with the cysteine-selective reagent revealed essentially no labeling of the alpha-subunit of the background construct and labeling of all five mutants with single cysteine residues in putative extracellular loops. Two additional mutants, V969C and L976C, were created to further define the M9M10 loop. The lack of labeling for these two mutants showed that although Met(973) is apparently exposed, Val(969) and Leu(976) are not, demonstrating that this method may also be utilized to define membrane aqueous boundaries of membrane proteins. Our labeling studies are consistent with a specific 10-transmembrane segment model of the Na,K-ATPase alpha-subunit. This strategy utilized only functional Na,K-ATPase mutants to establish the membrane topology of the entire alpha-subunit, in contrast to most previously applied methods.

Abstract
2-[4'-Maleimidylanilino]naphthalene 6-sulfonic acid (MIANS) irreversibly inactivates Na,K-ATPase in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. Inactivation is prevented by 3 mM ATP or low K(+) (<1 mM); the protective effect K(+) is reversed at higher concentrations. This biphasic effect was also observed with K(+) congeners. In contrast, Na(+) ions did not protect. MIANS inactivation disrupted high affinity ATP binding. Tryptic fragments of MIANS-labeled protein were analyzed by reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography. ATP clearly protected one major labeled peptide peak. This observation was confirmed by separation of tryptic peptides in SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealing a single fluorescently-labeled peptide of approximately 5 kDa. N-terminal amino acid sequencing identified the peptide (V(545)LGFCH...). This hydrophobic peptide contains only two Cys residues in all sodium pump alpha-subunit sequences and is found in the major cytoplasmic loop between M4 and M5, a region previously associated with ATP binding. Subsequent digestion of the tryptic peptide with V8 protease and N-terminal amino acid sequencing identified the modified residue as Cys(577). The cation-dependent change in reactivity of Cys(577) implies structural alterations in the ATP-binding domain following cation binding and occlusion in the intramembrane domain of Na,K-ATPase and expands our knowledge of the extent to which cation binding and occlusion are sensed in the ATP hydrolysis domain.

Abstract
The integral membrane protein, the gastric H,K-ATPase, is an alpha-beta heterodimer, with 10 putative transmembrane segments in the alpha-subunit and one such segment in the beta-subunit. All transmembrane segments remain within the membrane domain following trypsinization of the intact gastric H,K-ATPase in the presence of K+ ions, identified as M1M2, M3M4, M5M6, and M7, M8, M9, and M10. Removal of K+ ions from this digested preparation results in the selective loss of the M5M6 hairpin from the membrane. The release of the M5M6 fragment is directed to the extracellular phase as evidenced by the accumulation of the released M5M6 hairpin inside the sealed inside out vesicles. The stabilization of the M5M6 hairpin in the membrane phase by the transported cation as well as loss to the aqueous phase in the absence of the transported cation has been previously observed for another P2-type ATPase, the Na, K-ATPase (Lutsenko, S., Anderko, R., and Kaplan, J. H. (1995) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 92, 7936-7940). Thus, the effects of the counter-transported cation on retention of the M5M6 segment in the membrane as compared with the other membrane pairs may be a general feature of P2-ATPase ion pumps, reflecting a flexibility of this region that relates to the mechanism of transport.

Abstract
ATP and its analogues act on the minimal functional unit of Na, K-ATPase, the alpha beta protomer, with high and low affinity effects. Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) irreversibly blocks the high affinity, or catalytic, ATP site, and yet the surviving K+-phosphatase activity of soluble FITC-modified alphabeta protomers can be photoinactivated by 2'(3')-O-trinitrophenyl (TNP)-8N3-ADP (Ward, D. G., and Cavieres, J. D. (1998) J. Biol. Chem. 273, 14277-14284). We have now used TNP-8N3-[alpha-32P]ADP as a photoaffinity label for Na,K-ATPase. The native enzyme can be photolabeled at 5 microM TNP-8N3-[alpha-32P]ADP, and ATP or FITC treatment prevents labeling of the alpha chain. At 25 microM, however, TNP-8N3-[alpha-32P]ADP can be incorporated in the FITC-modified alpha chain, concurrently with the inactivation of the K+-phosphatase activity, to an extrapolated level of 0.5-1.2 mol of 32P-probe per mol of alpha chain. Photoinactivation and labeling are prevented by TNP-ADP, vanadate, or strophanthidin and are promoted by Na+ or Mg2+, but not K+. The cation effects suggest that the fluorescein-modified enzyme incorporates the TNP-8N3-[alpha-32P]ADP. Mg complex preferentially, and the free probe when in the E1 enzyme form and after occupation of a low-affinity Na+ site. Partial trypsinolysis reveals that the point of TNP-8N3-[alpha-32P]ADP attachment is on the C-terminal 58-kDa fragment of the FITC-modified alpha chain. The affinity labeling of the fluorescein enzyme by TNP-8N3-[alpha-32P]ADP endorses the view that two nucleotide sites can be occupied simultaneously in each alpha subunit of Na,K-ATPase.

Abstract
The Na,K-ATPase activity of the sodium pump exhibits apparent multisite kinetics toward ATP, a feature that is inherent to the minimal enzyme unit, the alpha beta protomer. We have argued that this should arise from separate catalytic and noncatalytic sites on the alpha beta protomer as fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) blocks a high affinity ATP site on all alpha subunits and yet the modified Na, K-ATPase retains a low affinity response to nucleotides (Ward, D. G., and Cavieres, J. D. (1996) J. Biol. Chem. 271, 12317-12321). We now find that 2'(3')-O-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl)8-azido-adenosine 5'-diphosphate (TNP-8N3-ADP), a high affinity photoactivatable analogue of ATP, can inhibit the K+-phosphatase activity of the FITC-modified enzyme during assays in dimmed light. The inhibition occurs with a Ki of 140 microM at 20 mM K+; it requires the adenine ring as 2'(3')-O-(2,4 6-trinitrophenyl) (TNP)-UDP or TNP-uridine are less potent and 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene-sulfonate is ineffective. Under irradiation with UV light, TNP-8N3-ADP inactivates the K+-phosphatase activity of the fluorescein-enzyme and also its phosphorylation by [32P]Pi. The photoinactivation process is stimulated by Na+ or Mg2+, and is inhibited by K+ or excess TNP-ADP. In the presence of 50 mM Na+ and 1 mM Mg2+, TNP-8N3-ADP photoinactivates with a K0.5 of 15 microM. Furthermore, TNP-8N3-ADP photoinactivates the FITC-modified, solubilized alpha beta protomers, even more effectively than the membrane-bound fluorescein-enzyme. These results strongly suggest that catalytic and allosteric ATP sites coexist on the alpha beta protomer of Na,K-ATPase.

Abstract
The tumor promoter palytoxin has been found to activate the stress-activated protein kinase/c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase 1 (SAPK/JNK1), and it also potentiates, as demonstrated here, the p38/HOG1 mitogen-activated protein kinase and the upstream activator of SAPK/JNK1, SEK1/MKK4. In search of possible mechanisms for both the cytotoxicity and the activation of stress kinases by palytoxin, we found that palytoxin is a potent inhibitor of cellular protein synthesis. The inhibition of translation by palytoxin does not result from its direct binding to the translational apparatus. We have previously demonstrated that ribotoxic stressors (Iordanov, M. S., Pribnow, D., Magun, J. L., Dinh, T.-H., Pearson, J. A., Chen, S. L.-Y., and Magun, B. E. (1997) Mol. Cell. Biol. 17, 3373-3381) signal the activation of SAPK/JNK1 by binding to or covalently modifying 28 S rRNA in ribosomes that are active at the time of exposure to the stressor. Palytoxin acted as a ribotoxic stressor, inasmuch as it required actively translating ribosomes at the time of exposure to activate SAPK/JNK1. Palytoxin has been shown to augment ion fluxes by binding to the Na+/K+-ATPase in the plasma membrane of cells. To determine whether altered fluxes of either Na+ or K+ could be responsible for the effects of palytoxin on translation and on activation of SAPK/JNK1, cells were exposed to palytoxin in modified culture medium in which a major portion of the Na+ was replaced by either K+ or by choline+. The substitution of Na+ by K+ strongly inhibited the ability of palytoxin both to inhibit protein translation and to activate SAPK/JNK1, whereas the substitution of Na+ by choline+ did not. These results suggest that palytoxin-induced efflux of cellular K+ mimics ribotoxic stress by provoking both translational inhibition and activation of protein kinases associated with cellular defense against stress.

Abstract
Dihydro-4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonate (H2DIDS) inactivates the renal Na,K-ATPase in an ATP- and K-preventable fashion; inactivation results in the covalent incorporation of a single [3H2]DIDS molecule into the Na pump alpha-subunit. K+ protection is observed at low concentrations (< 2 mM) and reversed at higher concentrations. The biphasic effect is also seen with Rb+, to a lesser extent by Cs+, and not at all by Na+ or choline. After extensive tryptic digestion of 3H2DIDS-inactivated enzyme, a single radiolabeled peptide is seen in 16.5% Tricine gels. N-terminal amino acid sequencing revealed two sequences 470IVEIPFNSTNxYQLS and 495HLLVMxGAPER, the unidentified residues were K480 and K501, respectively. These data provide suggestive evidence of cross-linking by H2DIDS between the two lysines. CNBr digestion of 3H2DIDS-labeled alpha-subunit produced a single radioactive band of the predicted 15-kDa mass for cross-linking between K480 an K501 produced by cleavage at known methione residues. The 15-kDa band combined two N-terminal sequences 464RDRYAKIVEI and 501xGAPERILDR which include K480 and K501. Thus K480 and K501 are within approximately 14 A of each other in the Na-bound form of the enzyme and information about the occupancy of the cation binding domain is transmitted to the ATP binding loop of the Na,K-ATPase.

Abstract
Na,K-ATPase in right-side-out oriented vesicles was stabilized in different conformations, and the location of intramembrane Cys residues of the alpha-subunit was assessed with membrane-permeable and membrane-impermeable Cys-directed reagents. In the presence of Mg2+ and Pi, Cys964 was the most accessible for both membrane-impermeable 4-acetamido-4'-maleimidylstilbene-2, 2'disulfonic acid (or stilbene disulfonate maleimide, SDSM) and membrane-permeable 7-diethylamino-3-(4'-maleimidyl)-4-methylcoumarin (CPM). In the presence of K+, Cys964 was modified only by hydrophobic CPM, indicating that the environment around Cys964 was different in these two conformations. Cys964 seems to mark the extracellular border of transmembrane segment M9. Cys911 in transmembrane segment M8 showed similar behavior; however, it was not so readily modified. Complete modification of Cys964 and Cys911 causes only partial (about 50%) inactivation of both ATPase activity and Rb+ (or K+) occlusion, indicating that the effect on cation occlusion is indirect and not within the occlusion cavity. The ATP binding capacity remains unaltered by the modifications. Treatment of the K+-stabilized post-tryptic preparation of purified Na, K-ATPase revealed labeling of several cysteines by CPM, none of which were labeled with SDSM. Removal of K+ ions from the preparation, which we have previously shown is accompanied by release of the M5M6 hairpin to the supernatant (), causes changes in the organization of the C-terminal 21-kDa fragment. In particular Cys983 in M10 became labeled by both CPM and SDSM, pointing to a tight association between the C terminus and the M5M6 hairpin of the alpha-subunit.

Abstract
Treatment of purified canine renal Na,K-ATPase with a range of photoactivatable amiloride derivatives results in inhibition of ATPase activity prior to illumination. Inhibition by amiloride derivatives substituted on a guanidium N could not be prevented by the presence of either K or Na; however, these cations could protect the enzyme against inhibition by derivatives substituted on the 5-position of the pyrazine ring. In the case of 5-(N-ethyl-[2'-methoxy-4'-nitrobenzyl])amiloride (NENMBA), the presence of monovalent cations (Na, K, and Rb) protected the enzyme effectively against inhibition, with concentrations in the millimolar range. ATP did not prevent inhibition; furthermore, native and NENMBA-treated enzyme exhibited normal levels of high affinity [3H]ADP (and hence ATP) binding. The rate of inhibition increased with increasing concentrations of NENMBA. Extensive washing of NENMBA-inhibited enzyme did not restore ATPase activity, showing that NENMBA has an extremely slow off-rate for dissociation from its inhibitory site. Partially inhibited enzyme could be rapidly pelleted and resuspended in NENMBA-free buffer and inhibition was observed to continue, albeit at a somewhat diminished rate, suggesting that NENMBA gains access to its inhibitory site after partitioning into the lipid phase rather than directly from the aqueous solution. Photolysis of NENMBA-inhibited enzyme resulted in covalent incorporation of the reagent into the alpha-subunit of the Na,K-ATPase, as observed by separation of labeled protein on a Laemmli gel and Western analysis using a polyclonal amiloride antibody. Almost all of the covalent labeling could be prevented by the presence of Rb in the incubation and labeling medium. These results suggest that NENMBA inhibits the Na, K-ATPase by disruption of the cation transport domain rather than the catalytic domain of the enzyme and that it promises to be a useful tool for cation site localization.

Abstract
In the present investigation reconstitution of Na+,K(+)-ATPase increases the number of phosphorylation sites (EP) of solubilized enzyme from 4.2 +/- 0.3 nmol/mg to 6.9 +/- 0.6 nmol/mg. The latter figure corresponds to one phosphorylation site per alpha beta-promoter. A cholesterol content > 10 mol% in the liposome bilayer and a high extracellular [Na+] are necessary to obtain this high value. Spontaneous dephosphorylation after maximum phosphorylation in Na+ is biphasic both in solubilized enzyme and after reconstitution. The rate of dephosphorylation compares with the specific hydrolytic Na(+)-ATPase activity measured at exactly identical conditions for all three preparations assuming parallel dephosphorylation of at least two phosphointermediates. The distribution of EP-species is found to vary among the three enzyme preparation used, i.e., membrane bound, solubilized, and reconstituted Na+,K(+)-ATPase, however in all the equilibrium is strongly poised away from the E1P-form.

Abstract
Tentacles of Stichodactyla helianthus contain an ouabain-inhibitable, (Na+,K+)-stimulated ATPase. The K0.5 for Na+ was 24 mM and for K+, 3.2 mM. The apparent affinity for ouabain was low, I50 = 10(-4) M. The order of cation affinities was Rb+ > K+ > NH4+ = Cs+. The catalytic subunit of the enzyme comprised a single band on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, M(r) = 105 kDa, that was phosphorylated by [32P]ATP in the presence of NaCl and dephosphorylated by the addition of KCl. The alpha subunit was weakly reactive with antibodies directed against the rat alpha subunit.

Abstract
The role of the Na,K-ATPase beta-subunit in stabilization of ion-binding sites has been investigated. Treatment of the purified renal Na,K-ATPase with 0.25 M DTT at 40 degrees C for 1 h resulted in 50% loss of Rb occlusion, which correlates with partial reduction of S-S bridges in the extracellular portion of the beta-subunit; both of these effects were prevented by the presence of 20 mM RbCl. To clarify the role of the extracellular portion of the beta-subunit, "19-kDa membranes" (Na,K-ATPase posttryptic residues, which have been shown to possess many of the cation-binding properties) were used. Incubation of the "19-kDa membranes" with 0.2 M DTT for 1 h at 37 degrees C abolished 70-80% of the 86Rb occlusion capacity. This was accompanied by accumulation of 16- and 17-kDa peptides (in SDS-PAGE of the membranes) and release of a 45-kDa band derived from the Na,K-ATPase beta-subunit to the supernatant. The appearance of the 45-kDa fragment of the beta-subunit in the supernatant confirms the existence of only one transmembrane fragment in this subunit. N-Terminal sequence analysis of the 16- and 17-kDa bands revealed the same structure, A-K-E-E-G-, which corresponds to the beta-subunit sequence beginning at Ala5. The simultaneous presence of 25 mM RbCl (but not 25 mM choline chloride) during DTT treatment prevents almost all (85%) of the loss of Rb occlusion, the appearance of 16- and 17-kDa bands, and reduction and release of the 45-kDa fragment.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
A prominent feature of the Na,K-ATPase reaction is an ATP dependence that suggests high- and low-affinity ATP requirements during the enzymic cycle. As only one ATP-binding domain has been identified in the alpha subunit and none has been identified in the beta subunit, it has seemed likely that the apparent negative cooperativity results from subunit interactions in an (alpha beta)2 diprotomer. To test this possibility, we have examined the behavior of solubilized alpha beta protomers of Na,K-ATPase down to 50 nM [gamma-32P]ATP. Active-enzyme analytical ultracentrifugation shows that the protomer is the active species and that no oligomerization occurs during turnover. However, we find that dual ATP effects can be clearly demonstrated and that nonhydrolyzable ATP analogs can stimulate the Na,K-ATPase activity of the soluble protomer. We conclude that the apparent negative cooperativity is inherent to the alpha beta protomer and that this should explain some of the complexities found with membrane-bound Na,K-ATPase and, perhaps, other P-type cation pumps.

Abstract
The energy dependent exchange of cytoplasmic Na+ for extracellular K+ in mammalian cells is due to a membrane bound enzyme system, the Na,K-ATPase. The exchange sustains a gradient for Na+ into and for K+ out of the cell, and this is used as an energy source for creation of the membrane potential, for its de- and repolarisation, for regulation of cytoplasmic ionic composition and for transepithelial transport. The Na,K-ATPase consists of two membrane spanning polypeptides, an alpha-subunit of 112-kD and a beta-subunit, which is a glycoprotein of 35-kD. The catalytic properties are associated with the alpha-subunit, which has the binding domain for ATP and the cations. In the review, attention will be given to the biochemical characterization of the reaction mechanism underlying the coupling between hydrolysis of the substate ATP and transport of Na+ and K+.

Abstract
Proteins in human red cell hemolysate were purified to determine which of them increase inhibition of the Na,K-ATPase in the presence of 2 microM free Ca. Samples purified 600,000-fold inhibited the Na,K-ATPase of human red cells in a Ca-dependent manner and stimulated the (Ca+Mg)-ATPase. These samples contained two proteins as analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE): calmodulin (18,000 Mr), which comprised most (greater than 90%) of the total protein, and an unidentified protein of approximately 13,000 Mr. Both proteins were a distinctive light yellow when stained with silver. Calmodulin from bovine testes also inhibited the Na,K-ATPase and stimulated the (Ca+Mg)-ATPase. This preparation also contained two proteins as analyzed by SDS-PAGE: calmodulin (95 to 99% of the total protein) and another protein of approximately 13,000 Mr (1 to 5% of the total protein). Both were light yellow when stained with silver. Since the amount of red cell protein was limited, the remainder of the study was carried out with the bovine testes preparation. Heating the testes preparation decreased, but did not abolish, inhibition of the Na,K-ATPase and reduced stimulation of the (Ca+Mg)-ATPase. When corrected for denatured calmodulin, both heated and unheated proteins increased inhibition of the Na,K-ATPase to the same extent. The Na,K-ATPase was inhibited at 2 microM free Ca in a dose-dependent manner over a range of 15 to 100 nM calmodulin. To establish if the inhibition was due to the calmodulin or the 13,000 Mr protein, both were electroeluted after SDS-PAGE. Electroeluted calmodulin stimulated the (Ca+Mg)-ATPase and increased Ca inhibition of the Na,K-ATPase. Electroeluted amounts of the smaller Mr protein slightly stimulated the (Ca+Mg)-ATPase, but had no effect on the Na,K-ATPase. This protein was digested with cyanogen bromide, partially sequenced, and thereby identified as a fragment of calmodulin. We conclude that intact calmodulin increases inhibition of the Na,K-ATPase at 2 microM free Ca. We suggest that calmodulin is part of a mechanism mediating the effects of physiological free Ca on the Na,K-ATPase.

Abstract
Treatment of renal Na,K-ATPase with N-acetylimidazole (NAI) results in loss of Na,K-ATPase activity. The inactivation kinetics can be described by a model in which two classes of sites are acetylated by NAI. The class I sites are rapidly reacting, the acetylation is prevented by the presence of ATP (K0.5 congruent to 8 microM), and the inactivation is reversed by incubation with hydroxylamine. These data suggest that the class I sites are tyrosine residues at the ATP binding site. The second class of sites are more slowly reacting, not protected by ATP, nor reversed by hydroxylamine treatment. These are probably lysine residues elsewhere in the protein. The associated K-stimulated p-nitrophenylphosphatase activity is inactivated by acetylation of the class II sites only; thus the tyrosine residues associated with ATP binding to the catalytic center are not essential for phosphatase activity. Inactivated enzyme no longer has high-affinity ATP binding associated with the catalytic site, although low-affinity ATP effects (inhibition of phosphatase and deocclusion of Rb) are still present. The inactivated enzyme can still be phosphorylated by Pi, occlude Rb+ ions, and undergo the major conformational transitions between the E1 Na and E2 K forms of the enzyme. Thus acetylation of the Na,K-ATPase by NAI inhibits high-affinity ATP binding to the catalytic center and produces inactivation.

Abstract
The Torpedo californica electric organ synaptic vesicle glycoprotein ATPase was solubilized with octaethyleneglycoldodecyl ether and stabilized with phosphatidylserine. The complex was analyzed by size exclusion chromatography and band sedimentation velocity ultracentrifugation in water/glycerol and deuterium oxide/glycerol density gradients. The complex was found to have a Stokes' radius of 79 +/- 0.7 A, a sedimentation velocity coefficient at 20 degrees C in water of 6.8 +/- 0.2S, a partial specific volume of 0.81 +/- 0.01 cm3/g, and a frictional coefficient of 1.6. The molecular weight of the solubilized complex was calculated to be 320,000 +/- 7,000 and that of the protein 210,000 +/- 9,000. The relationship of this latter value to the major transport ATPase types is discussed.

Abstract
A method for preparation of membranous fragments of pure and highly active shark rectal gland Na+/K+-ATPase by Mn2+ precipitation of C12E8-solubilized enzyme is described. The method is rapid and inexpensive, and yields enzyme with a specific Na+/K+-ATPase activity of up to 1800 mumol/mg per h at 37 degrees C. The influence of the detergent/protein and lipid/protein ratios on the yield of membrane bound enzyme is described.
