Abstract
Adenosylcobalamin (AdoCbl) or coenzyme B12-dependent enzymes tend to undergo mechanism-based inactivation during catalysis or inactivation in the absence of substrate. Such inactivation may be inevitable because they use a highly reactive radical for catalysis, and side reactions of radical intermediates result in the damage of the coenzyme. How do living organisms address such inactivation when enzymes are inactivated by undesirable side reactions? We discovered reactivating factors for radical B12 eliminases. They function as releasing factors for damaged cofactor(s) from enzymes and thus mediate their exchange for intact AdoCbl. Since multiple turnovers and chaperone functions were demonstrated, they were renamed "reactivases" or "reactivating chaperones." They play an essential role in coenzyme recycling as part of the activity-maintaining systems for B12 enzymes. In this chapter, we describe our investigations on reactivating chaperones, including their discovery, gene cloning, preparation, characterization, activity assays, and mechanistic studies, that have been conducted using a wide range of biochemical and structural methods that we have developed.

Abstract
The cariogenic potential of Streptococcus mutans is due to the production of organic acids derived from energy metabolism, which implies the need of mechanisms for the organism to tolerate this acidic environment. The F(1)F(o)-ATPase is generally considered as the main enzyme responsible for cytoplasmic proton extrusion, but mutations that resulted in a 50% reduction in F(1)F(o)-ATPase activity in S. mutans still allowed the micro-organism to grow and extrude acid, keeping the intracellular pH one pH unit above the extracellular ambient. This finding suggests the existence of other enzymatic (or cellular) mechanisms that keep the cytosolic pH neutral during micro-organism growth. This paper describes a membrane protein in S. mutans, with a molecular weight of 100 kDa, which exhibits ATPase activity inhibited by classic inhibitors of P-type ATPases (orthovanadate) and H(+),K(+)-ATPase (lanzoprazole), has an optimum pH comparable to other H(+)-ATPases and undergoes phosphorylation during the catalytic reaction, like that of H(+)-ATPases described in yeast and plant plasma membrane. Together, these results strongly suggest that the enzyme we describe here is a P-type H(+)-ATPase or H(+),ion-ATPase that can act in association with F(1)F(o)-ATPase during the growth of the S. mutans.

Abstract
Adenosylcobalamin-dependent glycerol dehydratase undergoes mechanism-based inactivation by its physiological substrate glycerol. We identified two genes (gdrAB) of Klebsiella pneumoniae for a glycerol dehydratase-reactivating factor (Tobimatsu, T., Kajiura, H., Yunoki, M., Azuma, M., and Toraya, T. (1999) J. Bacteriol. 181, 4110-4113). Recombinant GdrA and GdrB proteins formed a tight complex of (GdrA)(2)(GdrB)(2), which is a putative reactivating factor. The purified factor reactivated the glycerol-inactivated and O(2)-inactivated glycerol dehydratases as well as activated the enzyme-cyanocobalamin complex in vitro in the presence of ATP, Mg(2+), and adenosylcobalamin. The factor mediated the exchange of the enzyme-bound, adenine-lacking cobalamins for free, adenine-containing cobalamins in the presence of ATP and Mg(2+) through intermediate formation of apoenzyme. The factor showed extremely low ATP-hydrolyzing activity and formed a tight complex with apoenzyme in the presence of ADP. Incubation of the enzyme-cyanocobalamin complex with the reactivating factor in the presence of ADP brought about release of the enzyme-bound cobalamin. The resulting tight inactive complex of apoenzyme with the factor dissociated upon incubation with ATP, forming functional apoenzyme and a low affinity form of factor. Thus, it was established that the reactivation of the inactivated holoenzymes takes place in two steps: ADP-dependent cobalamin release and ATP-dependent dissociation of the apoenzyme-factor complex. We propose that the glycerol dehydratase-reactivating factor is a molecular chaperone that participates in reactivation of the inactivated enzymes.

Abstract
The mechanism of reactivation of diol dehydratase by its reactivating factor was investigated in vitro by using enzyme. cyanocobalamin complex as a model for inactivated holoenzyme. The factor mediated the exchange of the enzyme-bound, adenine-lacking cobalamins for free, adenine-containing cobalamins through intermediate formation of apoenzyme. The factor showed extremely low but distinct ATP-hydrolyzing activity. It formed a tight complex with apoenzyme in the presence of ADP but not at all in the presence of ATP. Incubation of the enzyme.cyanocobalamin complex with the reactivating factor in the presence of ADP brought about release of the enzyme-bound cobalamin, leaving the tight apoenzyme-reactivating factor complex. Although the resulting complex was inactive even in the presence of added adenosylcobalamin, it dissociated by incubation with ATP, forming the apoenzyme, which was reconstitutable into active holoenzyme with added coenzyme. Thus, it was established that the reactivation of the inactivated holoenzyme by the factor in the presence of ATP and Mg2+ takes place in two steps: ADP-dependent cobalamin release and ATP-dependent dissociation of the apoenzyme.factor complex. ATP plays dual roles as a precursor of ADP in the first step and as an effector to change the factor into the low-affinity form for diol dehydratase. The enzyme-bound adenosylcobalamin was also susceptible to exchange with free adeninylpentylcobalamin, although to a much lesser degree. The mechanism for discrimination of adenine-containing cobalamins from adenine-lacking cobalamins was explained in terms of formation equilibrium constants of the cobalamin.enzyme.reactivating factor ternary complexes. We propose that the reactivating factor is a new type of molecular chaperone that participates in reactivation of the inactivated enzymes.

Abstract
Energy metabolism by bacteria is well understood from the chemiosmotic viewpoint. We know that bacteria extrude protons across the plasma membrane, establishing an electrochemical potential that provides the driving force for various kinds of physiological work. Among these are the uptake of sugars, amino acids, and other nutrients with the aid of secondary porters and the regulation of the cytoplasmic pH and of the cytoplasmic concentration of potassium and other ions. Bacteria live in diverse habitats and are often exposed to severe conditions. In some circumstances, a proton circulation cannot satisfy their requirements and must be supplemented with a complement of primary transport systems. This review is concerned with cation transport in the fermentative streptococci, particularly Enterococcus hirae. Streptococci lack respiratory chains, relying on glycolysis or arginine fermentation for the production of ATP. One of the major findings with E. hirae and other streptococci is that ATP plays a much more important role in transmembrane transport than it does in nonfermentative organisms, probably due to the inability of this organism to generate a large proton potential. The movements of cations in streptococci illustrate the interplay between a variety of primary and secondary modes of transport.

Abstract
We have studied the properties of membrane-bound ATPase of a facultatively anaerobic alkalophile. The enzyme could not be solubilized without detergent, suggesting an integral membrane protein. The activity was accelerated by NH4+ and acetate anion, and inhibited by NH3-. The enzyme required Mg2+ or Mn2+ as a divalent cation for the maximal activity. In addition to ATP, the enzyme utilized other triphosphates of nucleosides as a substrate, but not di- nor monophosphates. The enzyme was suggested to crossreact with an antibody against the alpha-subunit of Na+/K+-ATPase from dog kidney.

Abstract
Earlier work from this laboratory led to the proposal that the cytoplasmic pH of streptococcal cells is regulated solely by changes in the amount and activity of a proton-translocating ATPase, F1F0 complex [Kobayashi, H., Suzuki, T. & Unemoto, T. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 627-630]. We have now examined the proposal with the aid of computer simulation. We find that an increase in the amount of the H+-ATPase is necessary for pH regulation and is sufficient to maintain a constant steady-state cytoplasmic pH. An increase in H+-ATPase activity is insufficient by itself to maintain a constant cytoplasmic pH, but suppresses the initial fluctuation of the pH. When both variations were allowed, the simulated cytoplasmic pH remained constant despite large perturbations, suggesting that this regulatory system has ample capacity to compensate for pH changes. The present work shows that a computer simulation is a useful way to examine a model for biological regulatory system; application of the simulation to other regulatory systems is discussed.

Abstract
A method is described for the purification of rat liver F1-ATPase by a modification of the chloroform extraction procedure originally described by Beechey et al. (Biochem. J. (1975) 148, 533). Purified liver membrane vesicles are extracted with chloroform in the presence of ATP and EDTA. The procedure yields pure F1 in only 2-3 h without the necessity of ion-exchange chromatography. The enzyme exhibits the alpha, beta, gamma, delta, and epsilon bands characteristic of F1-ATPase. It has a high ATPase specific activity, and is reconstitutively active, catalyzing high rates of ATP synthesis. Significantly, it can be readily crystallized. If desired, the enzyme can be passed over a gel filtration column to place it in a stabilizing phosphate-EDTA buffer, lyophilized and stored indefinitely at -20 degrees C.

Abstract
The soluble ATPase isolated from Streptococcus faecalis membranes containing tightly bound endogenous nucleotides do not exchange in the presence of ATP and Mg+2 added during the purification of the enzyme. In this paper the stoichiometry of endogenous nucleotides in the soluble ATPase obtained from (a) growing cells, (b) nongrowing glycolyzing cells, and (c) isolated cell membranes has been defined. The time course of incorporation was also studied in nongrowing, glycolyzing cells and isolated cell membranes. In all cases, 1-2 mol of nucleotide was bound per mol of enzyme. Maximal incorporation required approximately 1 h at 38 degrees C. Incorporation of cytoplasmic nucleotide into the enzyme occurred by a process of slow exchange for bound nucleotide. N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, which inhibits the membrane-bound ATPase and prevents generation of the protonmotive force, had no effect on incorporation of endogenous nucleotides in glycolyzing cells. Treatment of glycolyzing cells with gramicidin D plus K+, which dissipates the protonmotive force but has no effect on ATPase activity, did not inhibit incorporation of nucleotide. These results support the view that the slow exchange-incorporation of endogenous nucleotide(s) is independent of ATP hydrolysis and a protonmotive force. An in vitro system for the study of nucleotide binding at endogenous sites is described.

Abstract
Lipophilic and hydrophilic D-alanyl-lipoteichoic acids are elongated in Lactobacillus casei by the transfer of sn-glycerol 1-phosphate units from phosphatidylglycerol to the poly(glycerophosphate) moiety of the polymer. These sn-glycerol 1-phosphate units are added to the end of the poly(glycerophosphate) which is distal to the glycolipid anchor; 1,2-diglyceride results from this addition. The presence of a diglyceride kinase was suggested by the ATP-dependent phosphorylation of 1,2-diglyceride to phosphatidic acid. Inorganic phosphate was used to initiate the synthesis of lipophilic lipoteichoic acid (LTA) and the elongation of both lipophilic and hydrophilic LTA. Three observations suggest that phosphate and other anions play a role in the in vitro synthesis of LTA and its precursors. First, the conversion of 1,2-diglyceride to phosphatidic acid by diglyceride kinase was stimulated. Second, the synthesis of phosphatidylglycerol was increased. Third, the elongation of lipophilic and hydrophilic LTA was enhanced. These observations indicated that one effect of phosphate might be to enhance the utilization of 1,2-diglyceride for the synthesis of phosphatidic acid. This phospholipid is a precursor of phosphatidylglycerol, the donor of sn-glycerol 1-phosphate for elongation of LTA.

Abstract
Apyrase (ATP-diphosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.5) and inorganic pyrophosphatase (EC 3.6.1.1) were partially purified from S. aureofaciens RIA 57 and characterized. Apyrase degrades, in addition to ATP, other nucleoside triphosphates and nucleoside diphosphates, diphosphate, thiamine diphosphate, phosphoenolpyruvate and oligophosphates of chain length n less than 90. The apyrase activity was detected in the membrane and supernatant fractions. Its properties (substrate specificity. effect of inhibitors, pH optimum and effect of Mg2+ ions) were similar in both fractions except for the effect of oligomycin that inhibited only the membrane fraction. Pyrophosphatase exhibited a strict substrate specificity, substrates other than diphosphate being degraded relatively slowly. Of other enzymes exhibiting the phosphatase activity acid phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.2) and alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1), trimetaphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.2) and exopolyphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.11) degrading oligophosphatase of chain length n = 15, 40 and 60, were detected.

Abstract
We have purified the F1-F0 adenosine triphosphatase complex from wild-type Streptococcus faecalis ATCC 9790 and an N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD)-resistant mutant strain, SF-dcc-8. For preliminary purification of the complex, reconstituted F1-F0, prepared from isolated F1 adenosine triphosphatase and depleted membranes, was extracted with sodium deoxycholate and fractionated by salt precipitation. By means of two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, the F1-F0 complex was purified as a single, catalytically active band in the first dimension and then resolved into constituent subunits under denaturing conditions in the second dimension. The electrophoretic purification of F1-F0 removed a delta-less form of F1 as well as other impurities, including lipoteichoic acid. Both the DCCD-sensitive and the DCCD-resistant F1-F0 adenosine triphosphatase appeared to consist of eight proteins, five of which corresponded to the F1 subunits alpha, beta,, gamma, delta, and epsilon. The F0 sector proteins, designated M27, M15, and M6, had Mr values of 27,000, 15,000, and 6,000, respectively. There appear to be multiple copies of M6 in the complex. [14C]DCCD reacted specifically and covalently with M6 in the wild-type F1-F0 but failed to label the M6 protein in the complex from the DCCD-resistant strain. It is suggested that DCCD resistance in the SF-dcc-8 mutant may be due to a modification of the M6 protein which hinders access of DCCD to the reactive site.

Abstract
The bioenergetics of Ca2+ transport in bacteria are discussed with special emphasis on the interrelationship between transport and other cellular functions such as substrate oxidation by the respiratory chain and oxidative phosphorylation. The unusual polarity of Ca2+ movement provides an exceptional tool to compare active transport and other ATP requiring or generating processes since this ion is actively taken up by everted vesicles in which the coupling-factor ATPase is exposed to the external medium. As inferred from studies with everted vesicles, the active extrusion of Ca2+ by whole cells can be accomplished by substrate driven respiration, hydrolysis of ATP or as in the case of Streptococcus faecalis by a nonhydrolytic unknown process which involves ATP directly. Substrate oxidation and the hydrolysis of ATP result in the generation of a pH gradient which can energize the Ca2+ uptake directly (Ca2+/H+ antiport) or via a secondary Na+ gradient (Ca2+/Na+ antiport). In contrast to exponentially growing cells sporulating Bacilli accumulate Ca2+ during the synthesis of dipicolinic acid. Studies involving Ca2+ transport provided evidence in support of the hypothesis that the Mg2+ ATPase from Escherichia coli not only provides the driving force for various cellular functions but exerts a regulatory role by controlling the permeability of the membrane to protons. The different specificity requirements of various naphthoquinone analogs in the restoration of transport or oxidative phosphorylation, after the natural menaquinone has been destroyed by irradiation, has indicated that a protonmotive force is sufficient to drive active transport. However, in addition to the driving force (protonmotive force) necessary to establish oxidative phosphorylation, a specific spatial orientation of the respiratory components, such as the naphthoquinones, is essential for the utilization of the proton gradient or membrane potential or both. Finally, evidence suggesting that intracellular Ca2+ levels might play a fundamental role in bacterial homeostasis is discussed, in particular the role of Ca2+ in the process of chemotaxis and in conferring bacteria heat stability. A vitamin K-dependent carboxylation reaction has been found in Escherichia coli which is similar to that reported in mammalian systems which results in gamma carboxylation of glutamate residues. Although all of the proteins containing gamma-carboxyglutamate described so far are involved in Ca2+ metabolism, the role of these proteins in Escherichia coli is unknown and remains to be elucidated.

Abstract
The surface activity and enzymic properties of the factor F1, the catalytic moiety of Streptococcus faecalis H+-ATPase, has been studied at the air-water and phospholipid-water interfaces. F1 does not interact with the monolayer phospholipids, hence its adsorption on a biological membrane must be due mainly to its recognition of proteins of the hydrophobic complex. The dimensions of the F1 molecule at the air-water interface have been estimated. In the presence of Mg2+, base area is S = 1.8 . 10(4) A2, height h = 27 A. Bearing in mind the size of a globular subunit, it follows from the measurements that the major F1 subunits should all lie in the same plane. The ATPase activity of F1 at the interface is inversely proportional to the monolayer density. With low density monolayer, the specific ATPase activity is higher at the interface than in the bulk of the solution. Adsorption of F1 at the interface shifts the isoelectric point of tiscussed relative to the proton-active transport mechanism.

Abstract
Amino acid compositions of the milk fat globule membrane protein and plasma membrane protein from other sources, as well as the compositions of milk fat globule membrane-derived xanthine oxidase and selected plasma membranes-associated proteins were compared by statistical difference index. Additionally, the average hydrophobicity of xanthine oxidase and selected membrane proteins were compared. These comparisons indicate high orders of apparent compositional homology between the various plasma membranes and membrane-associated proteins. Because the biological functions of membrane proteins are widely diverse, it is speculated that their "relatedness" may reflect on evolutionary convergence to similar amino acid compositions, necessitated by their in situ environment--the lipoidal bilayer. However, compositional relatedness should not imply sequential homology.

Abstract
ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) was detected in the membrane fraction of the strict anaerobic bacterium, Clostridium pasteurianum. About 70% of the total activity was found in the particulate fraction. The enzyme was Mg2+ dependent; Co2+ and Mn2+ but not Ca2+ could replace Mg2+ to some extent; the activation by Mg2+ was slightly antagonized by Ca2+. Even in the presence of Mg2+, Na+ or K+ had no stimulatory effect. The ATPase reaction was effectively inhibited by one of its products, ADP, and only slightly by the other product, inorganic phosphate. Of the nucleoside triphosphates tested ATP was hydrolyzed with highest affinity ([S]0.5 v = 1.3 mM) and maximal activity (120 U/g). The ATPase activity could be nearly completely solubilized by treatment of the membranes with 2 M LiCl in the absence of Mg2+. Solubilization, however, led to instability of the enzyme. The clostridial solubilized and membrane-bound ATPase showed different properties similar to the "allotopic" properties of mitochondrial and other bacterial ATPases. The membrane-bound ATPase in contrast to the soluble ATPase was sensitive to the ATPase inhibitor dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD). DCCD, at 10(-4) M, led to 80% inhibition of the membrane-bound enzyme; oligomycin ouabain, or NaN3 had no effect. The membrane-bound ATPase could not be stimulated by trypsin pretreatment. Since none of the mono- or divalent cations had any truly stimulatory effect, and since a pH gradient (interior alkaline), which was sensitive to the ATPase inhibitor DCCD, was maintained during growth of C. pasteurianum, it was concluded that the function of the clostridial ATPase was the same as that of the rather similar mitochondrial enzyme, namely H+ translocation. A H+-translocating, ATP-consuming ATPase appears to be intrinsic equipment of all prolaryotic cells and as such to be phylogenetically very old; in the course of evolution the enzyme might have been developed to a H+-(re)translocating, ATP-forming ATPase as probably realized in aerobic bacteria, mitochondria and chloroplasts.

Abstract
Basal and trypsin-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase activities of Escherichia coli K 12 have been characterized at pH 7.5 in the membrane-bound state and in a soluble form of the enzyme. The saturation curve for Mg2+/ATP = 1/2 was hyperbolic with the membrane-bound enzyme and sigmoidal with the soluble enzyme. Trypsin did not modify the shape of the curves. The kinetic parameters were for the membrane-bound ATPase: apparent Km = 2.5 mM, Vmax (minus trypsin) = 1.6 mumol-min-1-mg protein-1, Vmax (plus trypsin) = 2.44 mumol-min-1-mg protein-1; for the soluble ATPase: [S0.5] = 1.2 mM, Vmax (-trypsin) = 4 mumol-min-1-mg protein-1; Vmax (+ trypsin) = 6.6 mumol-min-1-mg protein-1. Hill plot analysis showed a single slope for the membrane-bound ATPase (n = 0.92) but two slopes were obtained for the soluble enzyme (n = 0.98 and 1.87). It may suggest the existence of an initial positive cooperativity at low substrate concentrations followed by a lack of cooperativity at high ATP concentrations. Excess of free ATP and Mg2+ inhibited the ATPase but excess of Mg/ATP (1/2) did not. Saturation for ATP at constant Mg2+ concentration (4 mM) showed two sites (groups) with different Kms: at low ATP the values were 0.38 and 1.4 mM for the membrane-bound and soluble enzyme; at high ATP concentrations they were 17 and 20 mM, respectively. Mg2+ saturation at constant ATP (8 mM) revealed michealian kinetics for the membrane-bound ATPase and sigmoid one for the protein in soluble state. When the ATPase was assayed in presence of trypsin we obtained higher Km values for Mg2+. These results might suggest that trypsin stimulates E. coli ATPase by acting on some site(s) involved in Mg2+ binding. Adenosine diphosphate and inorganic phosphate (Pi) act as competitive inhibitors of Escherichia coli ATPase. The Ki values for Pi were 1.6 +/- 0.1 mM for the membrane-bound ATPase and 1.3 +/- 0.1 mM for the enzyme in soluble form, the Ki values for ADP being 1.7 mM and 0.75 mM for the membrane-bound and soluble ATPase, respectively. Hill plots of the activity of the soluble enzyme in presence of ADP showed that ADP decreased the interaction coefficient at ATP concentrations below its Km value. Trypsin did not modify the mechanism of inhibition or the inhibition constants. Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (0.4 mM) inhibited the membrane-bound enzyme by 60-70% but concentrations 100 times higher did not affect the residual activity nor the soluble ATPase. This inhibition was independent of trypsin. Sodium azide (20 muM) inhibited both states of E. coli ATPase by 50%. Concentrations 25-fold higher were required for complete inhibition. Ouabain, atebrin and oligomycin did not affect the bacterial ATPase.

Abstract
Highly purified preparations of Streptococcus faecalis ATPase contain a similar but inactive protein detected by prolonged polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The inactive protein appears to arise by proteolytic cleavage of the major subunits in the enzyme. By use of a new technique, subunit analysis in SDS gels was performed on the enzyme band and the inactive protein band excised from a polyacrylamide gel after electrophoresis. The results indicated that the ATPase has the composition alpha3beta3gamma in which alpha = 60,000, beta = 55,000, and gamma = 37,000 daltons. The inactive protein appears to have the composition (f)6 in which f = 49,000 daltons. There is also evidence that the enzyme band contains some slightly modified forms of the ATPase, such as alpha3beta2 (f)gamma. The inactive protein lacks the capacity for tight nucleotide binding. Our experiments show that the tight ATPase-nucleotide complex formed in S. faecalis cells (the endogenous complex) behaves differently from the tight complex formed in vitro (the exogenous complex). We prepared a doubly labeled complex containing endogenous 32P-labeled ADP and ATP and exogenous 3H-labeled ADP. We observed that the addition of free nucelotide to the doubly labeled ATPase displaced the exogenous bound ligand from the enzyme but not the endogenous bound nucleotide. We suggest that the displaceable and nondisplaceable forms of the tight ATPase-nucleotide complex correspond to two different conformational states of the enzyme.

Abstract
A satisfactory understanding of the functions of the sodium pump, the system responsible for the active transport of sodium and potassium, require the isolation and characterization of its protein and lipid components which are integrated in the structure of the cell membrane. The enzyme system (Na++ K+)-ATPase, is located in membrane fragments and behaves in the test tube like the transport system in the intact cell membrane (Skou,1957) Purified preparations of this enzyme will contain some, if not all, of the components of the sodium pump.
