Huang YY, Paul GV, Hsu T. Thallium(I) induces a prolonged inhibition of (6-4)photoproduct binding and UV damage excision repair activities in zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos via protein inactivation. Chem Biol Interact 2024; 388:110837. [PMID: 38104746 DOI: 10.1016/j.cbi.2023.110837] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2023] [Revised: 12/09/2023] [Accepted: 12/15/2023] [Indexed: 12/19/2023]
Abstract
Cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer (CPD) and (6-4)photoproduct (6-4 PP) are two major types of UV-induced DNA lesion and 6-4 PP is more mutagenic than CPD. Activated by lesion detection, nucleotide excision repair (NER) eliminates CPDs and 6-4 PPs. Thallium (Tl) is a toxic metal existing primarily as Tl+ in the aquatic environment. Ingestion of Tl+-contaminated foods and water is a major route of human poisoning. As Tl+ may inhibit enzyme activities via binding to sulfhydryl groups, this study explored if Tl+ could intensify UV mutagenicity by inactivating NER-linked damage recognition factors using zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryo as a model system. Incubation of Tl+ (as thallium nitrate) at 0.1-0.4 μg/mL with zebrafish extracts for 20 min caused a concentration-dependent inhibition of 6-4 PP binding activities as shown by a photolesion-specific band shift assay, while CPD binding activities were insensitive to Tl+. The ability of Tl+ to suppress 6-4 PP detection was stronger than that of Hg2+. Exposure of zebrafish embryos at 1 h post fertilization (hpf) to Tl+ at 0.4-1 μg/mL for 9 or 71 h also specifically inhibited 6-4 PP detection, indicating that Tl+ induced a prolonged inhibition of 6-4 PP sensing ability primarily via its direct interaction with damage recognition molecules. Tl+-mediated inhibition of 6-4 PP binding in embryos at distinct stages resulted in a suppression of NER capacity monitored by a transcription-based DNA repair assay. Our results revealed the potential of Tl+ to enhance UV mutagenicity by disturbing the removal of 6-4 PP through repressing the lesion detection step of NER.

Abstract
We have investigated the NMR chemical shift of 205 Tl in several thallium compounds, ranging from small covalent Tl(I) and Tl(III) molecules to supramolecular complexes with large organic ligands and some thallium halides. NMR calculations were run at the ZORA relativistic level, with and without spin-orbit coupling using few selected GGA and hybrid functionals, namely BP86, PBE, B3LYP, and PBE0. We also tested solvent effects both at the optimization level and at the NMR calculation step. At the ZORA-SO-PBE0 (COSMO) level of theory we find a very good performance of the computational protocol that allows to discard or retain possible structures/conformations based on the agreement between the calculated chemical shift and the experimental value.

Abstract
Thallium chemical shifts are very sensitive to chemical and physical conditions. This makes accurate chemical shift referencing difficult. Therefore, chemical shifts are usually referenced to the 1H reference multiplied by a standard factor. However, past papers are referenced to TlNO3 solution in water at infinite dilution. The chemical shift of TlNO3 at infinite dilution is measured accurately and found to be -22.16 and 0.75 ppm for 203Tl and 205Tl, respectively relative to the standard frequency ratios to proton. The behavior of thallium chemical-shift with concentration and temperature are determined and discussed in relation to the degree of ionic association.

Abstract
Although thallium is detrimental to all living organisms, information regarding the mutagenic and genotoxic effects of this element and its compounds remains scarce. Therefore, we tested the genotoxic and cytotoxic effects of thallium(I) acetate on human peripheral blood cells in vitro using structural chromosomal aberrations (SCAs), sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs), and single-cell gel electrophoresis (at pH >13 or 12.1) analysis. Whole blood samples were incubated with 0.5, 1, 5, 10, 50, or 100 µg/mL thallium salt. Exposure to this metal compound resulted in a clear dose-dependent reduction in the mitotic and replicative indices. An increase in SCAs was evident in the treated group compared with the control group, and significant differences were observed in the percentage of cells with SCAs when metaphase cells were treated with 0.5-10 µg/mL of thallium(I). The SCE test did not reveal any significant differences. We observed that a 1-h treatment with thallium(I) at pH > 13 significantly increased the comet length for all the concentrations tested; however, at pH 12.1, only the two highest concentrations affected the comet length. These results suggested that thallium(I) acetate induces cytotoxic, cytostatic, and clastogenic effects, as well as DNA damage.

Abstract
The crystal structure of the Tl+ form of the G-quadruplex formed from the Oxytricha nova telomere sequence, d(G4T4G4), has been solved to 1.55 A. This G-quadruplex contains five Tl+ ions, three of which are interspersed between adjacent G-quartet planes and one in each of the two thymine loops. The structure displays a high degree of similarity to the K+ crystal structure [Haider et al. (2002), J. Mol. Biol., 320, 189-200], including the number and location of the monovalent cation binding sites. The highly isomorphic nature of the two structures, which contain such a large number of monovalent binding sites (relative to nucleic acid content), verifies the ability of Tl+ to mimic K+ in nucleic acids. Information from this report confirms and extends the assignment of 205Tl resonances from a previous report [Gill et al. (2005), J. Am. Chem. Soc., 127, 16 723-16 732] where 205Tl NMR was used to study monovalent cation binding to this G-quadruplex. The assignment of these resonances provides evidence for the occurrence of conformational dynamics in the thymine loop region that is in slow exchange on the 205Tl timescale.

Abstract
Many RNAs, including the ribosome, RNase P, and the group II intron, explicitly require monovalent cations for activity in vitro. Although the necessity of monovalent cations for RNA function has been known for more than a quarter of a century, the characterization of specific monovalent metal sites within large RNAs has been elusive. Here we describe a biochemical approach to identify functionally important monovalent cations in nucleic acids. This method uses thallium (Tl+), a soft Lewis acid heavy metal cation with chemical properties similar to those of the physiological alkaline earth metal potassium (K+). Nucleotide analog interference mapping (NAIM) with the sulfur-substituted nucleotide 6-thioguanosine in combination with selective metal rescue of the interference with Tl+ provides a distinct biochemical signature for monovalent metal ion binding. This approach has identified a K+ binding site within the P4-P6 domain of the Tetrahymena group I intron that is also present within the X-ray crystal structure. The technique also predicted a similar binding site within the Azoarcus group I intron where the structure is not known. The approach is applicable to any RNA molecule that can be transcribed in vitro and whose function can be assayed.

Abstract
The P-type ATPases are integral membrane proteins that generate essential transmembrane ion gradients in virtually all living cells. The structures of two of these have recently been elucidated at a resolution of 8 A. When considered together with the large body of biochemical information that has accrued for these transporters and for enzymes in general, this new structural information is providing tantalizing insights regarding the molecular mechanism of active ion transport catalyzed by these proteins.

Abstract
Fusion proteins of glutathione-S-transferase and fragments from the large cytoplasmic domain of the sheep Na,K-ATPase alpha1-subunit were expressed in Escherichia coli. The Na,K-ATPase sequences begin at Ala345 and terminate at either Arg600 (DP600f), Thr610 (DP610f), Gly731 (DP731f), or Glu779 (DP779f). After affinity purification on glutathione-Sepharose, the fusion proteins were labeled with [alpha-32P]-2-N3-ATP, and incorporation of the radiolabel into the fusion proteins was measured by scintillation counting after sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Kd values of 220-290 microM for 2-N3-ATP binding to the fusion proteins were obtained from the photolabeling experiments. Approximately 1 mol of 2-N3-ATP was calculated to be incorporated per mole of fusion protein after correction for photochemical incorporation efficiency. Labeling of all of the fusion proteins by 25 microM 2-N3-ATP was reduced in the presence of MgATP, Na2ATP, MgCl2, 2',3'-O-(2,4, 6-trinitrophenyl)-ATP, and p-nitrophenylphosphate, and Ki values of 2-11 mM for Na2ATP, 0.2-5 mM for MgCl2, 0.1-5 mM for MgATP, and 20-300 microM for p-nitrophenylphosphate were calculated for these ligands. All of the fusion proteins catalyze the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenylphosphate. The reaction requires MgCl2 and is inhibited by inorganic phosphate, which is similar to the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenylphosphate by native Na,K-ATPase. Based on these observations, it appears that the soluble fragments from the large cytoplasmic domain of Na,K-ATPase expressed in bacterial cells are folded in an E2-like conformation and are likely to retain much of the native structure.

Abstract
Differential scanning calorimetry has been used to characterize the thermal denaturation of gastric (H+,K+)-ATPase. The excess heat capacity function of (H+,K+)-ATPase in highly oriented gastric vesicles displays two peaks at 53.9 degrees C (Tm1) and 61.8 degrees C (Tm2). Its thermal denaturation is an irreversible process that does not exhibit kinetic control and can be resolved in two independent two-state processes. They can be assigned to two cooperative domains located in the cytoplasmic loops of the alpha-subunit, according to the disappearance of the endothermic signal upon removal of these regions by proteinase K digestion. Analysis of the thermal-induced unfolding of the enzyme trapped in different catalytic cycle intermediates has allowed us to get insight into the E1-E2 conformational change. In the E1 forms both transitions are always observed. As Tm1 is shifted to Tm2 by vanadate and ATP interaction, the unfolding mechanism changes from two independent to two sequential two-state transitions, revealing interdomain interactions. Stabilization of the E2 forms results in the disappearance of the second transition at saturation by K+, Mg2+-ATP, and Mg2+-vanadate as well as in significant changes in Tm2 and DeltaH1. The catalytic domain melts following a process in which intermolecular interactions either in the native or in the unfolded state might be involved. Interestingly, the E2-vanadate-K+ form displays intermediate properties between the E1 and E2 conformational families.

Abstract
The role of Mg2+ in the conformational change reported by fluorescein 5'-isothiocyanate modification of Na,K-ATPase has been studied by stopped-flow fluorometry. K+ causes a fluorescence quench that is reversed by Na+. The principal experimental observations are as follows: (1) Mg2+ decreases the apparent affinity of the enzyme for K+ but does not affect the maximum rate of the K+ quench. (2) The amplitude of the K+ quench depends hyperbolically on the K+ concentration, and the maximum amplitude is unaffected by the Mg2+ concentration. (3) The rate at which Na+ reverses the K+ quench depends inversely on the Mg2+ concentration. (4) The amplitude of the Na+ reversal also decreases with increasing Mg2+ concentration. The data are quantitatively explained by a model that assumes only two enzyme conformations, detectable by their fluorescence emission. Mg2+ increases Kd for K+ from 14 to 223 mM. At 22 degrees C, Kd = 0.16 mM for Mg2+ dissociation from E1, and the heat of Mg2+ binding, delta H degrees, is 11.4 kcal mol-1. Kd is more than an order of magnitude larger for Mg2+ dissociation from E2K. Mg2+ binding does not affect the forward (E1K-->E2K) rate constant (kf), but decreases the reverse rate constant (kr) thus increasing the equilibrium constant for the reaction (Kc = kf/kr) 6-fold. Therefore, Mg2+ is not directly involved in the conformational transition, but the study supports proposals that Mg2+ binding and release may help to regulate the transport cycle by shifting the distribution of enzyme between E1 and E2 conformers.

Abstract
The interaction of a nitroxide spin-labeled derivative of ouabain with sheep kidney Na,K-ATPase and the motional behavior of the ouabain spin label-Na,K-ATPase complex have been studied by means of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and saturation-transfer EPR (ST-EPR). Spin-labeled ouabain binds with high affinity to the Na,K-ATPase with concurrent inhibition of ATPase activity. Enzyme preparations retain 0.61 +/- 0.1 mol of bound ouabain spin label per mole of ATP-dependent phosphorylation sites, even after repeated centrifugation and resuspension of the purified ATPase-containing membrane fragments. The conventional EPR spectrum of the ouabain spin label bound to the ATPase consists almost entirely (greater than 99%) of a broad resonance at 0 degrees C, characteristic of a tightly bound spin label which is strongly immobilized by the protein backbone. Saturation-transfer EPR measurements of the spin-labeled ATPase preparations yield effective correlation times for the bound labels significantly longer than 100 microseconds at 0 degrees C. Since the conventional EPR measurements of the ouabain spin-labeled Na,K-ATPase indicated the label was strongly immobilized, these rotational correlation times most likely represent the motion of the protein itself rather than the independent motion of mobile spin probes relative to a slower moving protein. Additional ST-EPR measurements of ouabain spin-labeled Na,K-ATPase (a) cross-linked with glutaraldehyde and (b) crystallized in two-dimensional arrays indicated that the observed rotational correlation times predominantly represented the motion of large Na,K-ATPase-containing membrane fragments, as opposed to the motion of individual monomeric or dimeric polypeptides within the membrane fragment. The results suggest that the binding of spin-labeled ouabain to the ATPase induces the protein to form large aggregates, implying that cardiac glycoside induced enzyme aggregation may play a role in the mechanism of action of the cardiac glycosides in inhibiting the Na,K-ATPase.

Abstract
The particular aim of the review on some basic facets of the mechanism of Na+/K(+)-transporting ATPase (Na/K-ATPase) has been to integrate the experimental findings concerning the Na(+)- and K(+)-elicited protein conformation changes and transphosphorylations into the perspective of an allosterically regulated, phosphoryl energy transferring enzyme. This has led the authors to the following summarizing evaluations. 1. The currently dominating hypothesis on a link between protein conformation changes ('E1 in equilibrium with E2') and Na+/K+ transport (the 'Albers-Post scheme') has been constructed from a variety of partial reactions and elementary steps, which, however, do not all unequivocally support the hypothesis. 2. The Na(+)- and K(+)-elicited protein conformation changes are inducible by a variety of other ligands and modulatory factors and therefore cannot be accepted as evidence for their direct participation in effecting cation translocation. 3. There is no evidence that the 'E1 in equilibrium with E2' protein conformation changes are moving Na+ and K+ across the plasma membrane. 4. The allosterically caused ER in equilibrium with ET ('E1 in equilibrium with E2') conformer transitions and the associated cation 'occlusion' in equilibrium with 'de-occlusion' processes regulate the actual catalytic power of an enzyme ensemble. 5. A host of experimental variables determines the proportion of functionally competent ER enzyme conformers and incompetent ET conformers so that any enzyme population, even at the start of a reaction, consists of an unknown mixture of these conformers. These circumstances account for the occurrence of contradictory observations and apparent failures in their comparability. 6. The modelling of the mechanism of the Na/K-ATPase and Na+/K+ pump from the results of reductionistically designed experiments requires the careful consideration of the physiological boundary conditions. 7. Na+ and K+ ligandation of Na/K-ATPase controls the geometry and chemical reactivity of the catalytic centre in the cycle of E1 in equilibrium with E2 state conversions. This is possibly effected by hinge-bending, concerted motions of three adjacent, intracellularly exposed peptide sequences, which shape open and closed forms of the catalytic centre in lock-and-key responses. 8. The Na(+)-dependent enzyme phosphorylation with ATP and the K(+)-dependent hydrolysis of the phosphoenzyme formed are integral steps in the transport mechanism of Na/K-ATPase, but the translocations of Na+ and K+ do not occur via a phosphate-cation symport mechanism.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
Transferred nuclear Overhauser effect measurements (in the two-dimensional mode) have been used to determine the three-dimensional conformation of an ATP analogue, Co(NH3)4ATP, at the active site of sheep kidney Na,K-ATPase. Previous studies have shown that Co(NH3)4ATP is a competitive inhibitor with respect to MnATP for the Na,K-ATPase [Klevickis, C., & Grisham, C.M. (1982) Biochemistry 21, 6979. Gantzer, M.L., et al. (1982) Biochemistry 21, 4083]. Nine unique proton-proton distances on ATPase-bound Co(NH3)4ATP were determined from the initial build-up rates of the cross-peaks of the 2D-TRNOE data sets. These distances, taken together with previous 31P and 1H relaxation measurements with paramagnetic probes, are consistent with a single nucleotide conformation at the active site. The bound Co(NH3)4ATP) adopts an anti conformation, with a glycosidic torsion angle of 35 degrees, and the conformation of the ribose ring is slightly N-type (C2'-exo, C3'-endo). The delta and gamma torsional angles in this conformation are 100 degrees and 178 degrees, respectively. The nucleotide adopts a bent configuration, in which the triphosphate chain lies nearly parallel to the adenine moiety. Mn2+ bound to a single, high-affinity site on the ATPase lies above and in the plane of the adenine ring. The distances from enzyme-bound Mn2+ to N6 and N7 are too large for first coordination sphere complexes, but are appropriate for second-sphere complexes involving, for example, intervening hydrogen-bonded water molecules. The NMR data also indicate that the structure of the bound ATP analogue is independent of the conformational state of the enzyme.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

E., & Grisham, C. M. (1979) Biochemistry 18, 2315]. From the paramagnetic effect of Mn2+ bound to the ATPase on the longitudinal relaxation rates of the protons of Co(NH3)4ATP at the substrate site (at 300 and 361 MHz), Mn-H distances to seven protons on the bound nucleotide were determined. Taken together with previous 31P nuclear relaxation data, these measurements are consistent with a single nucleotide conformation at the active site. The nucleotide adopts a bent configuration, in which the triphosphate chain lies nearly parallel to the adenine moiety. The glycosidic torsion angle is 35 degrees, and the conformation of the ribose ring is slightly N-type (C2'-exo, C3'-endo). The delta and gamma torsional angles in this conformation are 100 degrees and 178 degrees, respectively. The bound Mn2+ lies above and in the plane of the adenine ring. The distances from Mn2+ to N6 and N7 are too large for first coordination sphere complexes but are appropriate for second-sphere complexes involving, for example, intervening hydrogen-bonded water molecules.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
As an extension of work on the inhibition of enzymes by arylthallium(III) reagents, the thallium analogues of the organomercurials, we have studied the interactions of these molecules with transfer RNA. In contrast to thallous acetate, thallium(III) derivatives (thallic trifluoroacetate, p-methylphenylthallium(III) bis-trifluoroacetate (MPT) and o-carboxyphenylthallium(III) bis-trifluoroacetate) bound to Escherichia coli tRNA. The interaction was fully reversible upon Sephadex G-25 gel filtration, and binding constants and stoichiometries were evaluated by a number of procedures. The likely site of interaction was shown to be the thiouridine residue (s4U8) based on changes induced by MPT on the absorbance around 330 nm. No changes in stacking interactions could be detected from the absorption or circular dichroic spectra. The detailed structure of the groups on thallium(III) affected the interaction with tRNA. Thalliation at s4U8 affects the absorbance at 335 nm and the amino-acid uptake capacity of E. coli tRNAPhe in parallel, the latter being progressively inhibited by increasing amounts of MPT. In a model nucleoside system, uridine disulphide is probably formed from reduced thiouridine by the oxidative action of the Tl(III) reagents. No evidence of cross-linking of E. coli tRNA molecules under gel electrophoretic conditions was obtained in contrast to the model nucleoside. The easily reversible interaction of MPT with sulphur sites in E. coli tRNA contrasts with the stable (to gel filtration) bonds formed between MPT and (thiol) sites in enzymes.

Abstract
The kinetics of thallium exchange in cultured rat myocardial cells were studied and compared to those of potassium in the same tissue. Studies were carried out using low concentrations (10 nM to 5 microM) of thallium-204, approximating those likely to be encountered during clinical myocardial scintigraphy. Both thallium uptake and release could be described by a single exponential with a half-time of exchange which was approximately half that of potassium and which was largely independent of extracellular thallium concentration. Some 60% of thallium uptake occurred via an "active" or ouabain-inhibitable mechanism which, in the absence of extracellular potassium, could be activated by low concentrations (10 nM to 5 microM) of thallium. The apparent Km for thallium on this active transport mechanism was 2-7 microM. Increasing extracellular potassium from 0-10 mM caused significant, concentration-dependent decreases in both the total and the active component of the thallium influx. Similarly nonradioactive thallium (0.10 microM to 0.10 mM) caused a concentration-dependent decrease in active potassium influx. Analysis of these results by both Lineweaver-Burk plots and Dixon plots confirmed competitive inhibition, potassium on thallium influx and vice versa, for the active component of the fluxes, and noncompetitive in the remainder. These findings indicate that active transport accounts for the greater portion of the influx of thallium and potassium, and that this active transport occurs via a common mechanism.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The nucleotide substrate sites of sheep kidney medulla (NA+ + K+)-ATPase are characterized using CrATP, a paramagnetic, substitution-inert substrate analogue probe. The paramagnetic effect of CrATP on 1/T1 of water protons of water protons is enhanced upon complexation with the enzyme. Titrations of the enzyme with CrATP in the presence of Na+ and K+ yielded characteristic enhancements for the binary enzyme-CrATP and ternary enzyme-Mg2+-CrATP complexes of 3.3 and 3.6 and dissociation constants for CrATP of 5 and 12 microM, respectively. Substitution of Li+ for K+ in these titrations did not substantially alter the titration behavior. From the frequency dependence of 1/T1, the correlation time, tau c, for the dipolar water proton-CrATP interaction is 2.7 x 10(-10) sec, indicating that tau c is dominated by tau s, the electron spin relaxation time of Cr3+. The paramagnetic effect of enzyme-bound Mn2+ on 1/T1 of water protons decreases upon the addition of CrATP. Titration of the binary enzyme-Mn2+ complex with CrATP decreases the characteristic enhancement due to Mn2+ from 6.6-8.0 to 1.5. The failure to observe free Mn2+ epr signals in solutions of the ATPase, Mn2+, and CrATP demonstrate that this decrease in epsilon Mn is due to cross-relaxation between Mn2+ and Cr3+ bound simultaneously to the enzyme, and not to displacement of Mn2+ from the enzyme by CrATP. The relaxation rate, 1/T1, of 7Li+ is increased upon addition of CrATP to solutions of the ATPase, indicating that the sites for Li+ and CrATP are close on the enzyme. A Cr3+-Li+ distance of 4.8 +/- 0.5 angstrom is calculated from that data.

Abstract
The applications of paramagnetic probes to problems of structure and mechanism are discussed from the point of view of the membrane enzymologist. Problems unique to membrane systems are discussed, and a variety of nuclear and paramagnetic probes are evaluated. Three membrane ATPase (kidney (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, Ca2+-ATPase from sarcoplasmic reticulum and Mg2+-ATPase from kidney) are used to describe the types of experiments which can be done, the information which can be obtained and the limitations involved. Nuclear relaxation studies employing 1H, 7Li+, 31P and 205Tl+ nuclei are described. The advantages and disadvantages of Mn2+, Gd3+ and Cr3+ as paramagnetic probes are discussed in terms of the three ATPases. The theory and interpretation of Mn2+ and Gd3+ EPR spectra are evaluated in studies with the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase and Ca2+-ATPase, respectively.

Abstract
At even the simplest level we can expect an ATPase mechanism to comprise the following four steps: the binding of ATP, the reaction of ATP with water on the enzyme, and the release of the products ADP and P1. So at the outset techniques are needed to investigate these four processes. The range of techniques needed is soon extended once questions are asked about the role of protons and metal ions, the possibility of a multistep hydrolytic process, multistep substrate and product binding processes, and protein–lipid or protein–protein interactions. Since ATPases and ATP synthases are almost universally involved in some form of energy transduction there is a particular need in an ATPase or ATP synthase reaction to evaluate the equilibrium constants of the steps in the mechanism and to investigate the possibility of alternate reaction pathways. The nature of the coupling process by the protein of the chemical reactions of ATP to the other energetic process, be it muscle contraction, active transport, respiration or photosynthesis, is likewise of profound interest. Finally we would like to know as much as possible about the ATPase or ATP synthase mechanism during the period when the various forms of energy transduction are occurring.

Abstract
EPR and water proton relaxation rate (1/T1) studies of partially (40%) and "fully" (90%) purified preparations of membrane-bound (Na+ + K+) activated ATPase from sheep kidney indicate one tight binding site for Mn2+ per enzyme dimer, with a dissociation constant (KD = 0.88 muM) in agreement with the kinetically determined activator constant, identifying this Mn2+-binding site as the active site of the ATPase. Competition studies indicate that Mg2+ binds at this site with a dissociation constant of 1 mM in agreement with its activator constant. Inorganic phosphate and methylphosphonate bind to the enzyme-Mn2+ complex with similar high affinities and decrease 1/T1 of water protons due to a decrease from four to three in the number of rapidly exchanging water protons in the coordination sphere of enzyme-bound Mn2+. The relative effectiveness of Na+ and K+ in facilitating ternary complex formation with HPO2-4 and CH3PO2-3 as a function of pH indicates that Na+ induces the phosphate monoanion to interact with enzyme-bound Mn2+. Thus protonation of an enzyme-bound phosphoryl group would convert a K+-binding site to a Na+-binding site. Dissociation constants for K+ and Na+, estimated from NMR titrations, agreed with kinetically determined activator constants of these ions consistent with binding to the active site. Parallel 32Pi-binding studies show negligible formation (less than 7%) of a covalent E-P complex under these conditions, indicating that the NMR method has detected an additional noncovalent intermediate in ion transport. Ouabain, which increases the extent of phosphorylation of the enzyme to 24% at pH 7.8 and to 106% at pH 6.1, produced further decreases in 1/T1 of water protons. Preliminary 31P- relaxation studies of CH3PO2-3 in the presence of ATPase and Mn2+ yield an Mn to P distance (6.9 +/- 0.5 A) suggesting a second sphere enzyme-Mn-ligand-CH3PO2-3 complex. Previous kinetic studies have shown that T1+ substitutes for K+ in the activation of the enzyme but competes with Na+ at higher levels. From the paramagnetic effect of Mn2+ at the active site on the enzyme on I/T1 of 205T1 bound at the Na+ site, a Mn2+ to T1+ distance of 4.0 +/- 0.1 A is calculated, suggesting the sharing of a common ligand atomy by Mn2+ and T1+ on the ATPase. Addition of Pi increases this distance to 5.4 A consistent with the insertion of P between Mn2+ and T1+. These results are consistent with a mechanism for the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase and for ion transport in which the ionization state of Pi at a single enzyme active site controls the binding and transport of Na+ and K+, and indicate that the transport site for monovalent cations is very near the catalytic site of the ATPase. Our mechanism also accounts for the order of magnitude weaker binding of Na+ compared to K+.
