Abstract
We review 50 years of use of 2',3'-O-trinitrophenyl (TNP)-ATP, a fluorescently tagged ATP analog. It has been extensively used to detect binding interactions of ATP to proteins and to measure parameters of those interactions such as the dissociation constant, Kd, or inhibitor dissociation constant, Ki. TNP-ATP has also found use in other applications, for example, as a fluorescence marker in microscopy, as a FRET pair, or as an antagonist (e.g., of P2X receptors). However, its use in protein binding studies has limitations because the TNP moiety often enhances binding affinity, and the fluorescence changes that occur with binding can be masked or mimicked in unexpected ways. The goal of this review is to provide a clear perspective of the pros and cons of using TNP-ATP to allow for better experimental design and less ambiguous data in future experiments using TNP-ATP and other TNP nucleotides.

Abstract
The plasma membrane Ca2+‑ATPase (PMCA) belongs to the family of P-type ATPases, which share the formation of an acid-stable phosphorylated intermediate as part of their reaction cycle. The crystal structure of PMCA is currently lacking. Its abundance is approximately 0.1% of the total protein in the membrane, hampering efforts to produce suitable crystals for X-ray structure analysis. In this work we characterized the effect of beryllium fluoride (BeFx), aluminium fluoride (AlFx) and magnesium fluoride (MgFx) on PMCA. These compounds are known inhibitors of P-type ATPases that stabilize E2P ground, E2·P phosphoryl transition and E2·Pi product states. Our results show that the phosphate analogues BeFx, AlFx and MgFx inhibit PMCA Ca2+‑ATPase activity, phosphatase activity and phosphorylation with high apparent affinity. Ca2+‑ATPase inhibition by AlFx and BeFx depended on Mg2+ concentration indicating that this ion stabilizes the complex between these inhibitors and the enzyme. Low pH increases AlFx and BeFx but not MgFx apparent affinity. Eosin fluorescent probe binds with high affinity to the nucleotide binding site of PMCA. The fluorescence of eosin decreases when fluoride complexes bind to PMCA indicating that the environment of the nucleotide binding site is less hydrophobic in E2P-like states. Finally, measuring the time course of E → E2P-like conformational change, we proposed a kinetic model for the binding of fluoride complexes and vanadate to PMCA. In summary, our results show that these fluoride complexes reveal different states of phosphorylated intermediates belonging to the mechanism of hydrolysis of ATP by the PMCA.

Abstract
The photoactivation of aryl azides is commonly employed as a means to covalently attach cross-linking and labeling reagents to proteins, facilitated by the high reactivity of the resultant aryl nitrenes with amino groups present in the protein side chains. We have developed a simple and reliable assay for the determination of the ATP binding affinity of native or recombinant sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase, taking advantage of the specific photolabeling of Lys(492) in the Ca(2+)-ATPase by [γ-(32)P]2',3'-O-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl)-8-azido-adenosine 5'-triphosphate ([γ-(32)P]TNP-8N3-ATP) and the competitive inhibition by ATP of the photolabeling reaction. The method allows determination of the ATP affinity of Ca(2+)-ATPase mutants expressed in mammalian cell culture in amounts too minute for conventional equilibrium binding studies. Here, we describe the synthesis and purification of the [γ-(32)P]TNP-8N3-ATP photolabel, as well as its application in ATP affinity measurements.

Abstract
The type of metabolic compartmentalization that occurs in red blood cells differs from the types that exist in most eukaryotic cells, such as intracellular organelles. In red blood cells (ghosts), ATP is sequestered within the cytoskeletal-membrane complex. These pools of ATP are known to directly fuel both the Na(+)/K(+) and Ca(2+) pumps. ATP can be entrapped within these pools either by incubation with bulk ATP or by operation of the phosphoglycerate kinase and pyruvate kinase reactions to enzymatically generate ATP. When the pool is filled with nascent ATP, metabolic labeling of the Na(+)/K(+) or Ca(2+) pump phosphoproteins (E(Na)-P and E(Ca)-P, respectively) from bulk [γ-(32)P]-ATP is prevented until the pool is emptied by various means. Importantly, the pool also can be filled with the fluorescent ATP analog trinitrophenol ATP, as well as with a photoactivatable ATP analog, 8-azido-ATP (N(3)-ATP). Using the fluorescent ATP, we show that ATP accumulates and then disappears from the membrane as the ATP pools are filled and subsequently emptied, respectively. By loading N(3)-ATP into the membrane pool, we demonstrate that membrane proteins that contribute to the pool's architecture can be photolabeled. With the aid of an antibody to N(3)-ATP, we identify these labeled proteins by immunoblotting and characterize their derived peptides by mass spectrometry. These analyses show that the specific peptides that corral the entrapped ATP derive from sequences within β-spectrin, ankyrin, band 3, and GAPDH.

Trinitrophenyl derivatives bind differently from parent adenine nucleotides to Ca2+-ATPase in the absence of Ca2+. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2011; 108:1833-8.

Abstract
Trinitrophenyl derivatives of adenine nucleotides are widely used for probing ATP-binding sites. Here we describe crystal structures of Ca(2+)-ATPase, a representative P-type ATPase, in the absence of Ca(2+) with bound ATP, trinitrophenyl-ATP, -ADP, and -AMP at better than 2.4-Å resolution, stabilized with thapsigargin, a potent inhibitor. These crystal structures show that the binding mode of the trinitrophenyl derivatives is distinctly different from the parent adenine nucleotides. The adenine binding pocket in the nucleotide binding domain of Ca(2+)-ATPase is now occupied by the trinitrophenyl group, and the side chains of two arginines sandwich the adenine ring, accounting for the much higher affinities of the trinitrophenyl derivatives. Trinitrophenyl nucleotides exhibit a pronounced fluorescence in the E2P ground state but not in the other E2 states. Crystal structures of the E2P and E2 ∼ P analogues of Ca(2+)-ATPase with bound trinitrophenyl-AMP show that different arrangements of the three cytoplasmic domains alter the orientation and water accessibility of the trinitrophenyl group, explaining the origin of "superfluorescence." Thus, the crystal structures demonstrate that ATP and its derivatives are highly adaptable to a wide range of site topologies stabilized by a variety of interactions.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential channel vanilloid receptor subunit 1 (TRPV1) is a thermosensitive cation channel activated by noxious heat as well as a wide range of chemical stimuli. Although ATP by itself does not directly activate TRPV1, it was shown that intracellular ATP increases its activity by directly interacting with the Walker A motif residing on the C-terminus of TRPV1. In order to identify the amino acid residues that are essential for the binding of ATP to the TRPV1 channel, we performed the following point mutations of the Walker A motif: P732A, D733A, G734A, K735A, D736A, and D737A. Employing bulk fluorescence measurements, namely a TNP-ATP competition assay and FITC labelling and quenching experiments, we identified the key role of the K735 residue in the binding of the nucleotide. Experimental data was interpreted according to our molecular modelling simulations.

Abstract
Epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs), the cytochrome P450 metabolites of arachidonic acid (AA), are potent and stereospecific activators of cardiac ATP-sensitive K(+)(K(ATP)) channels. EETs activate K(ATP) channels by reducing channel sensitivity to ATP. In this study, we determined the direct effects of EETs on the binding of ATP to K(ATP) channel protein. A fluorescent ATP analog, 2,4,6-trinitrophenyl (TNP)-ATP, which increases its fluorescence emission significantly upon binding with proteins, was used for binding studies with glutathione-S-transferase (GST) Kir6.2 fusion proteins. TNP-ATP bound to GST fusion protein containing the C-terminus of Kir6.2 (GST-Kir6.2C), but not to the N-terminus of Kir6.2, or to GST alone. 11,12-EET (5 muM) did not change TNP-ATP binding K(D) to GST-Kir6.2C, but B(max) was reduced by half. The effect of 11,12-EET was dose-dependent, and 8,9- and 14,15-EETs were as effective as 11,12-EET in inhibiting TNP-ATP binding to GST-Kir6.2C. AA and 11,12-dihydroxyeicosatrienoic acid (11,12-DHET), the parent compound and metabolite of 11,12-EET, respectively, were not effective inhibitors of TNP-ATP binding to GST-Kir6.2C, whereas the methyl ester of 11,12-EET was. These findings suggest that the epoxide group in EETs is important for modulation of ATP binding to Kir6.2. We conclude that EETs bind to the C-terminus of K(ATP) channels, inhibiting binding of ATP to the channel.

Abstract
The Na,K-pump was discovered about 50 years ago. Since then there has been a methodic investigation of its structure and functional characteristics. The development of the Albers-Post model for the transport cycle was a milestone that provided the framework for detailed understanding of the transport process. The pump is composed of 2 subunits that exist in the membrane as an alphabeta heterodimer. All known enzymatic functions of the pump occur through the alpha subunit. Although necessary for activity, the complete role of the beta subunit is not understood fully. Numerous studies have established that the alphabeta protomer is the minimal functional unit needed to perform the Albers-Post reaction cycle. However, higher orders of aggregation [(alphabeta)n] are commonly detected. There is little evidence that oligomerization has functional consequence for ion transport. The Na+,K+-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) is a member of the P-type ATPase family of transporters. Proteins within this family have common amino acid sequence motifs that share functional characteristics and structure. Low-resolution 3-dimensional reconstruction of 2-dimensional crystal diffractions provide evidence for the similarity in tertiary structure of the alpha subunit and the Ca2+ATPase (a closely related P-type ATPase). The spatial location of the beta subunit also is obvious in these reconstructions. Recent high-resolution reconstructions from 3-dimensional crystals of the Ca2+ATPase provide structural details at the atomic level. It now is possible to interpret structurally some of the key steps in the Albers-Post reaction. Some of these high-resolution interpretations are translatable to the Na+,K+-ATPase, but a high-resolution structure of the Na,K-pump is needed for the necessary details of those aspects that are unique to this transporter.

Abstract
The structural stability of the large cytoplasmic domain (H(4)-H(5) loop) of mouse alpha(1) subunit of Na(+)/K(+) ATPase (L354-I777), the number and the location of its binding sites for 2'-3'-O-(trinitrophenyl) adenosine 5'-triphosphate (TNP-ATP) and p-nitrophenylphosphate (pNPP) were investigated. C- and N-terminal shortening revealed that neither part of the phosphorylation (P)-domain are necessary for TNP-ATP binding. There is no indication of a second ATP site on the P-domain of the isolated loop, even though others reported previously of its existence by TNP-N(3)ADP affinity labeling of the full enzyme. Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-anisotropy measurements reveal a considerable stability of the nucleotide (N)-domain suggesting that it may not undergo a substantial conformational change upon ATP binding. The FITC modified loop showed only slightly diminished phosphatase activity, most likely due to a pNPP site on the N-domain around N398 whose mutation to D reduced the phosphatase activity by 50%. The amino acids forming this pNPP site (M384, L414, W411, S400, S408) are conserved in the alpha(1-4) isoforms of Na(+)/K(+) ATPase, whereas N398 is only conserved in the vertebrates' alpha(1) subunit. The phosphatase activity of the isolated H(4)-H(5) loop was neither inhibited by ATP, nor affected by mutation of D369, which is phosphorylated in native Na(+)/K(+) ATPase.

Abstract
Infrared spectroscopy was used to monitor the conformational change of 2',3'-O-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl)adenosine 5'-monophosphate (TNP-AMP) binding to the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase. TNP-AMP binding was observed in a competition experiment: TNP-AMP is initially bound to the ATPase but is then replaced by beta,gamma-iminoadenosine 5'-triphosphate (AMPPNP) after AMPPNP release from P(3)-1-(2-nitrophenyl)ethyl AMPPNP (caged AMPPNP). The resulting infrared difference spectra are compared to those of AMPPNP binding to the free ATPase, to obtain a difference spectrum that reflects solely TNP-AMP binding to the Ca(2+)-ATPase. TNP-AMP used as an ATP analog in the crystal structure of the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase was found to induce a conformational change upon binding to the ATPase. It binds with a binding mode that is different from that of AMPPNP, ATP, and other tri- and diphosphate nucleotides: TNP-AMP binding causes partially opposite and smaller conformational changes compared to ATP or AMPPNP. The conformation of the TNP-AMP ATPase complex is more similar to that of the E1Ca(2) state than to that of the E1ATPCa(2) state. Regarding the use of infrared spectroscopy as a technique for ligand binding studies, our results show that infrared spectroscopy is able to distinguish different binding modes.

Abstract
TraG-like proteins are essential components of type IV secretion systems. During secretion, TraG is thought to translocate defined substrates through the inner cell membrane. The energy for this transport is presumably delivered by its potential nucleotide hydrolase (NTPase) activity. TraG of conjugative plasmid RP4 is a membrane-anchored oligomer that binds RP4 relaxase and DNA. TrwB (R388) is a hexameric TraG-like protein that binds ATP. Both proteins, however, lack NTPase activity under in vitro conditions. We characterized derivatives of TraG and TrwB truncated by the N-terminal membrane anchor (TraGdelta2 and TrwBdelta1) and/or containing a point mutation at the putative nucleotide-binding site (TraGdelta2K187T and TraGK187T). Unlike TraG and TrwB, truncated derivatives behaved as monomers without the tendency to form oligomers or aggregates. Surface plasmon resonance analysis with immobilized relaxase showed that mutant TraGK187T was as good a binding partner as the wild-type protein, whereas truncated TraG monomers were unable to bind relaxase. TraGdelta2 and TrwBdelta1 bound ATP and, with similar affinity, ADP. Binding of ATP and ADP was strongly inhibited by the presence of Mg(2+) or single-stranded DNA and was competed for by other nucleotides. Compared to the activity of TraGdelta2, the ATP- and ADP-binding activity of the point mutation derivative TraGdelta2K187T was significantly reduced. Each TraG derivative bound DNA with an affinity similar to that of the native protein. DNA binding was inhibited or competed for by ATP, ADP, and, most prominently, Mg(2+). Thus, both nucleotide binding and DNA binding were sensitive to Mg(2+) and were competitive with respect to each other.

Abstract
Binding of TNP-ATP [2',3'- O-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl)adenosine 5'-triphosphate, a fluorescent analogue of ATP] to the K605 protein was studied. This is an isolated N-domain in the cytoplasmic loop of the Na/K-ATPase alpha-subunit, lying between membrane-spanning segments 4 and 5 (sequence L(354)-I(604)). A titration equation is derived that explicitly makes it possible to relate the fluorescence of TNP-ATP and K605 solutions to total probe concentration in the sample. Using this, it is possible to obtain the value of the dissociation constant from the titration experiment without resorting to the Scatchard plot, which is far from optimal from the statistical point of view. Using the new formula with non-linear regression analysis, a value of the dissociation constant K(D) for TNP-ATP binding to the K605 protein of 3.03 +/- 0.28 microM at 22 degrees C was obtained. A series of fits to simulated data with added noise demonstrated clearly the advantage of non-linear regression using the new formula over the commonly employed linear regression using the Scatchard plot. The procedure presented is generally applicable to binding assays using changes in the fluorescence of ligands on binding.

Abstract
The Methanocaldococcus jannaschii (formerly Methanococcus jannaschii) protein Mj0968 has been reported to represent a soluble P-type ATPase [Ogawa et al., FEBS Lett. 471 (2000) 99-102]. In this study, we report that the heterologously expressed Mj0968-His(10) protein exhibits high rates of phosphatase activity, whereas only very low ATPase activity was measured. Replacement of the aspartate residue in the DSAGT motif (D7A), which becomes phosphorylated during the reaction cycle of P-type ATPases, does not affect the V(max), but only the K(M) of the reaction. Labeling studies with [gamma-(32)P]ATP and [alpha-(32)P]ATP revealed that the previously reported labeling experiments [Ogawa et al., 2000] do not necessarily show phosphorylation of Mj0968, but rather point to ATP binding. Binding studies with trinitrophenyl adenosine nucleotides showed low apparent K(d) values for those molecules. These results provide evidence that the native function of Mj0968 seems to be that of a phosphatase, rather than that of an ATP-hydrolyzing enzyme.

Abstract
Intracellular ATP and membrane-associated phosphatidylinositol phospholipids, like PIP(2) (PI(4,5)P(2)), regulate the activity of ATP-sensitive K(+) (K(ATP)) and Kir1.1 channels by direct interaction with the pore-forming subunits of these channels. We previously demonstrated direct binding of TNP-ATP (2',3'-O-(2,4,6-trinitrophenylcyclo-hexadienylidene)-ATP) to the COOH-terminal cytosolic domains of the pore-forming subunits of Kir1.1 and Kir6.x channels. In addition, PIP(2) competed for TNP-ATP binding on the COOH termini of Kir1.1 and Kir6.x channels, providing a mechanism that can account for PIP(2) antagonism of ATP inhibition of these channels. To localize the ATP-binding site within the COOH terminus of Kir1.1, we produced and purified maltose-binding protein (MBP) fusion proteins containing truncated and/or mutated Kir1.1 COOH termini and examined the binding of TNP-ATP and competition by PIP(2). A truncated COOH-terminal fusion protein construct, MBP_1.1CDeltaC170, containing the first 39 amino acid residues distal to the second transmembrane domain was sufficient to bind TNP-ATP with high affinity. A construct containing the remaining COOH-terminal segment distal to the first 39 amino acid residues did not bind TNP-ATP. Deletion of 5 or more amino acid residues from the NH(2)-terminal side of the COOH terminus abolished nucleotide binding to the entire COOH terminus or to the first 49 amino acid residues of the COOH terminus. PIP(2) competed TNP-ATP binding to MBP_1.1CDeltaC170 with an EC(50) of 10.9 microm. Mutation of any one of three arginine residues (R188A/E, R203A, and R217A), which are conserved in Kir1.1 and K(ATP) channels and are involved in ATP and/or PIP(2) effects on channel activity, dramatically reduced TNP-ATP binding to MBP_1.1DeltaC170. In contrast, mutation of a fourth conserved residue (R212A) exhibited slightly enhanced TNP-ATP binding and increased affinity for PIP(2) competition of TNP-ATP (EC(50) = 5.7 microm). These studies suggest that the first 39 COOH-terminal amino acid residues form an ATP-PIP(2) binding domain in Kir1.1 and possibly the Kir6.x ATP-sensitive K(+) channels.

Abstract
The ATP-binding site of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase is localized on the large cytoplasmic loop of the alpha-subunit between transmembrane helices H(4) and H(5). Site-directed mutagenesis was performed to identify residues involved in ATP binding. On the basis of our recently developed model of this loop, Ser(445), Glu(446), and Phe(475) were proposed to be close to the binding pocket. Replacement of Phe(475) with Trp and Glu(446) with Gln profoundly reduced the binding of ATP, whereas the substitution of Ser(445) with Ala did not affect ATP binding. Fluorescence measurements of the fluorescent analog TNP-ATP, however, indicated that Ser(445) is close to the binding site, although it does not participate in binding.

Abstract
ATP-sensitive potassium (K(ATP)) channels are expressed in many excitable, as well as epithelial, cells and couple metabolic changes to modulation of cell activity. ATP regulation of K(ATP) channel activity may involve direct binding of this nucleotide to the pore-forming inward rectifier (Kir) subunit despite the lack of known nucleotide-binding motifs. To examine this possibility, we assessed the binding of the fluorescent ATP analogue, 2',3'-O-(2,4,6-trinitrophenylcyclo-hexadienylidene)adenosine 5'-triphosphate (TNP-ATP) to maltose-binding fusion proteins of the NH(2)- and COOH-terminal cytosolic regions of the three known K(ATP) channels (Kir1.1, Kir6.1, and Kir6.2) as well as to the COOH-terminal region of an ATP-insensitive inward rectifier K(+) channel (Kir2.1). We show direct binding of TNP-ATP to the COOH termini of all three known K(ATP) channels but not to the COOH terminus of the ATP-insensitive channel, Kir2.1. TNP-ATP binding was specific for the COOH termini of K(ATP) channels because this nucleotide did not bind to the NH(2) termini of Kir1.1 or Kir6.1. The affinities for TNP-ATP binding to K(ATP) COOH termini of Kir1.1, Kir6.1, and Kir6.2 were similar. Binding was abolished by denaturing with 4 m urea or SDS and enhanced by reduction in pH. TNP-ATP to protein stoichiometries were similar for all K(ATP) COOH-terminal proteins with 1 mol of TNP-ATP binding/mole of protein. Competition of TNP-ATP binding to the Kir1.1 COOH terminus by MgATP was complex with both Mg(2+) and MgATP effects. Glutaraldehyde cross-linking demonstrated the multimerization potential of these COOH termini, suggesting that these cytosolic segments may directly interact in intact tetrameric channels. Thus, the COOH termini of K(ATP) tetrameric channels contain the nucleotide-binding pockets of these metabolically regulated channels with four potential nucleotide-binding sites/channel tetramer.

Abstract
We used the direct route of occlusion to study the equilibrium between free and occluded Rb(+) in the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase, in media with different concentrations of ATP, Mg(2+), or Na(+). An empirical equation, with the restrictions imposed by the stoichiometry of ligand binding was fitted to the data. This allowed us to identify which states of the enzyme were present in each condition and to work out the schemes and equations that describe the equilibria between the ATPase, Rb(+), and ATP, Mg(2+), or Na(+). These equations were fitted to the corresponding experimental data to find out the values of the equilibrium constants of the reactions connecting the different enzyme states. The three ligands decreased the apparent affinity for Rb(+) occlusion without affecting the occlusion capacity. With [ATP] tending to infinity, enzyme species with one or two occluded Rb(+) seem to be present and full occlusion seems to occur in enzymes saturated with the nucleotide. In contrast, when either [Mg(2+)] or [Na(+)] tended to infinity no occlusion was detectable. Both Mg(2+) and Na(+) are displaced by Rb(+) through a process that seems to need the binding and occlusion of two Rb(+), which suggests that in these conditions Rb(+) occlusion regains the stoichiometry of the physiological operation of the Na(+) pump.

Abstract
Vacuolar proton pumping pyrophosphatase (H(+)-PPase; EC 3.6.1.1) plays a central role in the electrogenic translocation of protons from cytosol to the vacuole lumen at the expense of PP(i) hydrolysis. A fluorescent probe, fluorescein 5'-isothiocyanate (FITC), was used to modify a lysine residue of vacuolar H(+)-PPase. The enzymatic activity and its associated H(+) translocation of vacuolar H(+)-PPase were markedly decreased by FITC in a concentration-dependent manner. The inhibition of enzymatic activity followed pseudo-first-order rate kinetics. A double-logarithmic plot of the apparent reaction rate constant against FITC concentration yielded a straight line with a slope of 0.89, suggesting that the alteration of a single lysine residue on the enzyme is sufficient to inhibit vacuolar H(+)-PPase. Changes in K(m) but not V(max) values of vacuolar H(+)-PPase as inhibited by FITC were obtained, indicating that the labeling caused a modification in affinity of the enzyme to its substrate. FITC inhibition of vacuolar H(+)-PPase could be protected by its physiological substrate, Mg(2+)-PP(i). These results indicate that FITC might specifically compete with the substrate at the active site and the FITC-labeled lysine residue locates probably in or near the catalytic domain of the enzyme. The enhancement of fluorescence intensity and the blue shift of the emission maximum of FITC after modification of vacuolar H(+)-PPase suggest that the FITC-labeled lysine residue is located in a relatively hydrophobic region.

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
Escherichia coli was used to overexpress the large cytoplasmic loop of the rat Na,K-ATPase. A 1260-base DNA segment encoding Lys354-Lys774 of the rat alpha1-subunit was constructed via polymerase chain reaction. The polymerase chain reaction product was successfully subcloned into the expression vector pET-28 (Novagen), which produces an N-terminal 6-histidine-tagged fusion protein. The pET-28 vector containing rat alpha-loop, i.e. pAN, was used to transform calcium-competent E. coli BL21(DE3) cells, and positive clones were selected by kanamycin resistance. Bacterial cultures were grown, and protein synthesis was induced with isopropyl beta-D-thiogalactoside. Cells were harvested and lysed, revealing production of the His-tagged fusion protein ( approximately 46 kDa). The fusion protein was affinity-purified from other soluble cellular proteins via a Ni-NTA column, which routinely yielded approximately 20 mg of soluble His6-alpha-loop/L cell culture. The His6-alpha-loop retained significant native structure, as evidenced by the ability of ATP and ADP (but not AMP, CTP, GTP, or UTP) to protect against chemical modification by either fluorescein isothiocyanate or maleimidylanilinonapthalene sulfonic acid. More specifically, circular dichroism spectroscopy was used to estimate the secondary structure of the His6 loop, revealing an ordered folding composed of 23% alpha-helix, 23% antiparallel beta-sheet, 4% parallel beta-sheet, 19% beta-turn, and 32% random coil. The 6-histidine loop bound the fluorescent ATP analog trinitrophenyl-ATP with high affinity, as determined by measuring the fluorescence changes associated with binding. Affinities for ATP ( approximately 350 microM) and ADP ( approximately 550 microM) were determined by their ability to compete with and displace 2',3'-O-[2,4,6,-trinitrophenyl]-ATP. These nucleotide affinities are similar to those observed for the E2 conformation of the intact Na,K-ATPase.

Abstract
This paper examines the transient kinetics of substrate binding to the Na+/K(+)-ATPase labelled with iodoacetamidofluorescein (IAF) using fluorescence quenching by trinitrophenyl-ATP (TNP-ATP). Earlier work (E.H. Hellen, P.R. Pratap, 1996, Fluorescence quenching of IAF-Na+/K(+)-ATPase via energy transfer to TNP-labelled nucleotide, Proceedings of the VIIIth International Conference on the Na+/K(+)-ATPase, in press) has shown that TNP-nucleotide binds to specific sites (from which unlabelled nucleotide can displace it) and nonspecific sites (from which unlabelled nucleotide cannot displace it). Under stopped-flow conditions, quenching of IAF-enzyme fluorescence was well described by a stretched exponential (F(t) = F infinity + delta F exp[-Bt alpha]). Physically, this function may be interpreted in terms of its inverse Laplace transform phi (k), which describes a distribution of rate-constants; alpha reflects the width of this distribution. As TNP-ATP concentration increased, alpha decreased, reflecting TNP-ATP binding to sites with higher energy barriers. alpha decreased by about the same amount with increasing [TNP-ATP] in the presence of saturating ATP, indicating that the distribution of rate-constants is largely associated with the nonspecific binding sites. However, alpha was significantly less than 1 for ATP-induced fluorescence recovery in the presence of TNP-ATP, indicating that rate-constants associated with specific binding site are also distributed. The distribution of rate-constants for binding to the specific site indicates a distribution in the energy of the transition state for substrate binding. These results suggest that the specific binding site (in either the empty or the full state) may exist in a series of conformations separated by small energy barriers. However, the energy barriers for binding associated with these conformations are significantly distributed.

Abstract
Nucleotide binding to 5-iodoacetamidofluorescein (IAF) labelled Na+/K(+)-ATPase was measured by steady state fluorescence quenching of the fluorescein label via energy transfer to trinitrophenyl (TNP) labelled nucleotide. TNP-nucleotides are valuable probes of nucleotide binding to ATPases. Interpretation of these and other experiments in our laboratory using TNP-nucleotides with the Na+/K(+)-ATPase rely on having a good model for the interaction of TNP-nucleotide with the enzyme. Sets of fluorescence quenching curves obtained by titrating the enzyme with TNP-ADP in the presence of various concentrations of ADP could not be adequately modelled using a simple model with a single nucleotide binding site. Therefore, we compare various models which allow for additional TNP-nucleotide binding to the enzyme. In the two-site model, the additional binding is to a second specific site for which TNP-nucleotide and unlabelled nucleotide compete. In two other models, the additional binding (in one case saturable, and in the other case non-saturable) of TNP-nucleotide is not blocked by or affected by unlabelled nucleotide, and is, therefore, referred to as non-specific binding of the TNP-nucleotide. The goal of this work is to determine which of the distinctly different physical pictures associated with these models most accurately describes the interaction of TNP-nucleotide with the enzyme. We find that the interaction of TNP-ADP with IAF-labelled Na+/K(+)-ATPase is best described by a model in which there are two classes of binding: TNP-ADP and ADP compete for a specific binding site with dissociation binding constants of 0.13 microM for TNP-ADP and 2.0 microM for ADP; and non-saturable non-specific binding of TNP-ADP.

Abstract
Na+/K+-transport through mammalian cell membranes by Na+/K+-ATPase (EC 3.6.1.37) needs the interaction of ATP sites with different binding affinities during catalysis: one with catalytic (high affinity site) and one with regulatory properties (low affinity site). To find affinity labels for the latter one, the effects of 2'-O-dansylated ATP analogs on Na+/K+-ATPase and its partial activities were analyzed. DANS-ATP (2'-O-(6-dimethylaminonaphthalenesulfonyl)adenosine 5'-triphosphate) inhibited noncompetitively at low ATP concentrations and competitively at high ATP concentrations the Na+/K+-activated hydrolysis of ATP under turnover conditions. It interacted preferentially with the low affinity ATP site as shown by its protective effect against the inactivation of Na+/K+-ATPase by Co(NH3)4ATP and Cr(H2O)4ATP. DANS-N3-ATP, however, inactivated Na+/K+-ATPase. The initial velocity of inactivation shows a sigmoid concentration dependence that was converted to a hyperbola in the presence of ATP. DANS-N3-ATP inhibited competitively the K+-activated hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl phosphate in a fluorescein isothiocyanate-blocked enzyme but did not effect Na+-dependent phosphoenzyme formation from [gamma-32P]ATP in a Co(NH3)4PO4-blocked enzyme. These effects could be described by a Koshland-Némethy-Filmer model assuming two nucleotide binding sites in strong cooperation. Fitting all data to this model revealed that ATP was bound in a negative cooperative way with a Kd = 0.3-1 microM to the first site and a Kd = 100-120 microM to the second site of the enzyme containing already one ATP bound. The hydrolysis of ATP through a pathway with two ATP bound was 30 times faster than hydrolysis with one ATP bound. DANS-N3-ATP bound in a positive cooperative way with a Kd = 500 +/- 100 microM to the first site and a Kd = 2.5 +/- 0.5 microM to the second site containing already one DANS-N3-ATP bound. Therefore, DANS-N3-ATP may be an useful affinity marker of the low affinity, regulatory ATP site.

Abstract
Association reactions of a recombinant CFTR-NBF-2 polypeptide fused to glutathione S-transferase with guanine nucleotides were monitored quantitatively by recording the fluorescence enhancement of excited trinitrophenol (TNP)-labelled GTP after binding to NBF-2. Binding of TNP-GTP to the recombinant NBF-2 polypeptide was characterized by a Kd value of 3.9 microM. The corrected Kd values for unlabelled guanine nucleotides were determined to be 33 microM for GTP, 92 microM for GDP and 217 microM for GMP. TNP-ATP bound to NBF-2 was competitively displaced by GTP indicating a common binding site for both nucleotides. The recombinant NBF-2 did not show an intrinsic GTPase activity above a detection limit of 0.007 min(-1). Our findings provide the first experimental evidence that NBF-2 can act as a GTP-binding subunit that would favor the release of GDP after GTP hydrolysis.

Abstract
The overall reaction of well-defined solubilized protomers of Na,K-ATPase (one alpha plus one beta subunit) retains the dual ATP dependence observed with the membrane-bound enzyme, with distinctive ATP effects in the submicromolar and submillimolar ranges (Ward, D. G., and Cavieres, J. D. (1993) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 90, 5332-5336). We have now found that the K+/-phosphatase activity of the alpha beta protomers is still inhibited by 2'(3')-O-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl)adenosine 5'-diphosphate (TNP-ADP). What is most significant is that the TNP-ADP effect can be observed clearly with protomeric enzyme whose high affinity ATP site has been blocked covalently with fluorescein isothiocyanate. We conclude that nucleotides can bind at two discrete sites in each protomeric unit of Na,K-ATPase.

Abstract
CFTR-NBF-2 was expressed in Escherichia coli in fusion with glutathione-S-transferase, the soluble portion was purified and identified as a structured protein by its CD spectrum. Association reactions of the recombinant NBF-2 with adenine nucleotides were monitored qualitatively by demonstrating its ability to bind specifically to ATP-, ADP- and AMP-affinity agarose and quantitatively by recording the fluorescence enhancement of excited trinitrophenol (TNP)-labelled adenine nucleotides occurring as a result of binding to NBF-2. Best-fit monophasic binding curves to the fluorescence data indicated Kd values of 22 microM for TNP-ATP, 39 microM for TNP- ADP and 2.1 microM for TNP-AMP. The corrected Kd values for unlabelled adenine nucleotides competing with the fluorophores were determined to be 37 microM for ATP, 92 microM for ADP and 12 microM for AMP. The recombinant NBF-2 did not show any hydrolytic activity on ATP (detection limit 0.001 s-1). Our findings support the concept of a central role of NBF-2 in CFTR activity regulation acting as an allosteric switch between channel opening and closing and give the first experimental evidence that the channel inhibitor AMP could act via NBF-2.

Abstract
The rate of uridine phosphorolysis catalyzed by uridine phosphorylase from Escherichia coli decreases with increasing ionic strength. In contrast, the rate was increased about twofold after preincubation of uridine phosphorylase with 60% acetonitrile. These data correlate with known effects of polar and bipolar aprotic solvents on SN2 nucleophilic substitution reactions. The enzyme modified with fluorescein-5'-isothiocyanate (fluorescein residue occupies an uridine-binding subsite [Komissarov et al., (1994) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1205, 54-58]) was selectively modified with irreversible inhibitor SA-423, which reacts near the phosphate-binding subsite. The double-modified uridine phosphorylase is assumed to imitate the enzyme-substrate complex. Modification with SA-423 was accompanied with dramatic changes in the absorption spectrum of active site-linked fluorescein, which were identical to those for fluorescein in a hydrophobic medium, namely 80% acetonitrile. The data obtained suggest that an increase in active site hydrophobicity leads to phosphate desolvation and facilitates the enzymatic SN2 uridine phosphorolysis reaction.

Abstract
Structural characteristics of the base- and ribose-binding regions of the high-affinity noninteracting nucleotide-binding site of Escherichia coli primary replicative helicase DnaB protein have been studied, using the base-modified fluorescent nucleotide analog 1, N6-ethenoadenosine diphosphate (epsilon ADP) and the ribose-modified fluorescent analogs 3'(2')-O-(N-methylantraniloyl)adenosine 5'-diphosphate (MANT-ADP), 3'-O-(N-methylantraniloyl)deoxyadenosine 5'-diphosphate (MANT-dADP), 3'-O-(N-methylantraniloyl)-deoxyadenosine 5'-triphosphate (MANT-dATP), and 2'(3')-O-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl)adenosine 5'-diphosphate (TNP-ADP). The obtained data indicate contrasting differences between these two regions. Binding of epsilon ADP to the DnaB helicase causes only approximately 21% increase of the nucleotide fluorescence intensity and no shift of the emission spectrum maximum. The fluorescence of bound epsilon ADP is characterized by a single lifetime of 24.2 +/- 0.6 ns, only slightly shorter than the fluorescent lifetime of the free epsilon ADP in solution (25.5 +/- 0.6 ns). Solute-quenching studies of bound epsilon ADP, using different quenchers, acrylamide, I-, and Tl+, indicate limited accessibility of ethenoadenosine to the solvent. These results strongly suggest that the base-binding region of the DnaB nucleotide-binding site is located in the polar cleft on the enzyme's surface. Moreover, the limiting emission anisotropy of bound epsilon ADP is 0.21 +/- 0.02, compared to the anisotropy of 0.3 of completely immobilized epsilon ADP at the same excitation wavelength (lambda ex = 325 nm, lambda em = 410 nm), indicating that the adenine preserves substantial mobility when bound in the base-binding site. In contrast, fluorescence intensity at the emission maximum of TNP-ADP and MANT-ADP, which has modifying groups attached to the 2' and/or 3' oxygens of the ribose, increases upon binding to DnaB by factors of approximately 4.7 (lambda ex = 408 nm) and approximately 2.6 (lambda ex = 356 nm), respectively. Moreover, the maximum of emission spectrum of bound TNP-ADP is blue-shifted by approximately 11 nm and that of MANT-ADP by approximately 12 nm. Comparisons between spectral properties of TNP-ADP and MANT-ADP bound to DnaB and in different solvents suggest that the ribose-binding region of the DnaB nucleotide-binding site has relatively low polarity. Solute quenching studies of MANT-ADP fluorescence, using acrylamide, I-, and Tl+, indicate that the MANT group has very little accessibility to the solvent when bound to DnaB. Taken together, these results suggest that the ribose-binding region constitutes a hydrophobic cleft, or pocket, with very limited, if any, contact with the solvent.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
Double-reciprocal plots of the rate of ATP hydrolysis by Na+,K(+)-ATPase versus ATP concentration are not linear, and may reflect either two distinct binding sites for ATP or a single ATP binding site whose affinity for the nucleotide alternates between high-affinity and low-affinity states. In order to determine whether multiple nucleotides or nucleotide analogs can bind simultaneously to Na,+,K(+)-ATPase, the effects of nucleotides on the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl phosphate and on the dephosphorylation rate of Na+,K(+)-ATPase modified by fluorescein 5'-isothiocyanate (FITC) were measured. FITC blocks the high-affinity binding site for ATP on the Na+K(+)-ATPase and inhibits ATP hydrolysis at ATP concentrations as high as 8.3 mM. The hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl phosphate and phosphoenzyme formation from inorganic phosphate and Mg2+ were not affected by FITC modification. The p-nitrophenylphosphatase activity of unmodified Na+,K(+)-ATPase was stimulated by low concentrations of ATP (10-100 microM) and other nucleotides, and was inhibited at higher nucleotide concentrations. In contrast, there was no effect on p-nitrophenyl phosphate hydrolysis by FITC-modified Na,K(+)-ATPase at ATP concentrations less than 100 microM. The hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl phosphate by FITC-modified Na+,K(+)-ATPase was inhibited at ATP concentrations greater than 100 microM. These observations demonstrate that the effects of ATP acting at high-affinity sites are absent in FITC-modified Na+,K(+)-ATPase but the effects of ATP acting at low-affinity sites are still observed. In unmodified Na+,K(+)-ATPase, the rate of dephosphorylation of the phosphoenzyme formed from inorganic phosphate and Mg2+ was inhibited by ATP.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

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 binding of monoclonal antibody M7-PB-E9 to the alpha-subunit of Na+,K(+)-ATPase partially inhibits enzyme activity (35%) in competition with ATP, while in the presence of magnesium it stimulates the rate of ouabain binding severalfold [Ball, W. J. (1984) Biochemistry 23, 2275-2281]. These effects have been shown to result from an antibody-induced shifting of the enzyme's E1 <==> E2 conformational equilibrium to the right that affects all enzyme-ligand interactions except that with Mg2+ [Abbott, A.J., & Ball, W.J. (1992) Biochemistry 31, 11236-11243]. In order to identify the location of the M7-PB-E9 epitope, proteolytic fragments of the lamb kidney enzyme were generated and the immunoreactive alpha fragments were identified by Western blot analyses. These studies revealed a 47-kDa tryptic fragment, which bound both M7-PB-E9 and a -COOH terminus specific antisera and NH2-terminal sequencing showed to originate at Ala-590. Digestion with Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease produced a 36-kDa -COOH-terminus fragment which originated at Gly-697 and did not contain the antibody epitope. Thus the intracellular sequence region Ala-590 to Gly-697 was shown to contain the antibody epitope. When M7-PB-E9's ability to recognize the alpha subunits from various species and tissues was determined and correlated with available sequencing data, only Ser-646 was present in the highly reactive lamb, pig, and avian kidney alpha 1 proteins and altered (Asn) in the poorly recognized Xenopus and rat kidney and Torpedo electroplax organ enzymes.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Stopped-flow fluorometry has been used to measure the forward and reverse rates of the conformational change from E1 to E2 in the fluorescein-modified proton and sodium pumps (1) as a function of Na+ and K+ concentrations to verify the proposed mechanism of ion interaction with the enzymes and (2) as a function of temperature to gain insight into the nature of the conformational transition. (1) The fluorescence changes caused by Na+ and K+ are consistent with rapid competitive binding of the two ions to the E1 conformations of the enzymes followed by rate-limiting transitions between E1K and E2K. (2) Reaction coordinate diagrams for the E1K to E2K transitions in the H,K-ATPase and Na,K-ATPase are qualitatively similar. Enthalpy barriers to reaction are partially compensated by increased entropy in the transition states. However, there are striking quantitative differences between the two enzymes. The E2K to E1K reaction of the H,K-ATPase is more than 2 orders of magnitude faster (tau 1/2 = 6 ms at 22 degrees C) than the reverse rate of the Na,K-ATPase transition (tau 1/2 = 1.6 s), explaining repeated failure to detect a K(+)-"occluded" form of the H,K-enzyme. The E2K conformer of the Na,K-ATPase is 3 orders of magnitude more stable than E1K, while the E1K and E2K conformations of the H,K-ATPase are nearly equivalent energetically.

Abstract
Inactivation of Na+/K(+)-ATPase activity by the MgPO4 complex analogue Co(NH3)4PO4 leads, in everted red blood cell vesicles, to the parallel inactivation of 22Na+/K+ flux and 86Rb/Rb+ exchange, but leaves the 22Na+/Na(+)-exchange activity and the uncoupled ATP-supported 22Na+ transport unaffected. Furthermore, inactivation of purified Na+/K(+)-ATPase by Co(NH3)4PO4 leads to a parallel decrease of the capacity of the [3H]ouabain receptor site, when binding was studied by the Mg2+/Pi-supported pathway (ouabain-enzyme complex II) but the capacity of the ouabain receptor site was unaltered, when the Na+/Mg2+/ATP-supported pathway (ouabain-enzyme complex I) was used. No change in the dissociation constants of either ouabain receptor complex was observed following inactivation of Na+/K(+)-ATPase. When eosin was used as a marker for the high-affinity ATP-binding site of the E1 conformation, formation of stable E'2.Co(NH3)4PO4 complex led to a shift in the high-affinity ATP-binding site towards the sodium form. This led to an increase in the dissociation constant of the enzyme complex with K+, from 1.4 mM with the unmodified enzyme to 280 mM with the Co(NH3)4PO4-inactivated enzyme. It was concluded, that the effects of Co(NH3)4PO4 on the partial activities of the sodium pump are difficult to reconcile with an alpha, beta-protomeric enzyme working according the Albers-Post scheme. The data are consistent with an alpha 2, beta 2 diprotomeric enzyme of interacting catalytic subunits working with a modified version of the Albers-Post model.

Abstract
The temperature dependence of fluorescence polarization and Förster-type resonance energy transfer (FRET) was analyzed in the Ca2(+)-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum using protein tryptophan and site-specific fluorescence indicators such as 5-[2-[iodoacetyl)amino)ethyl]aminonaphthalene-1-sulfonic acid (IAEDANS), fluorescein 5'-isothiocyanate (FITC), 2',3'-O-(2,4,3-trinitrophenyl)adenosine monophosphate (TNP-AMP) or lanthanides (Pr3+, Nd3+) as probes. The normalized energy transfer efficiency between AEDANS bound at cysteine-670 and -674 and FITC bound at lysine-515 increases with increasing temperature in the range of 10-37 degrees C, indicating the existence of a relatively flexible structure in the region of the ATPase molecule that links the AEDANS to the FITC site. These observations are consistent with the theory of Somogyi, Matko, Papp, Hevessy, Welch and Damjanovich (Biochemistry 23 (1984) 3403-3411) that thermally induced structural fluctuations increase the energy transfer. Structural fluctuations were also evident in the energy transfer between FITC linked to the nucleotide-binding domain and Nd3+ bound at the putative Ca2+ sites. By contrast the normalized energy transfer efficiency between AEDANS and Pr3+ was relatively insensitive to temperature, suggesting that the region between cysteine-670 and the putative Ca2+ site monitored by the AEDANS-Pr3+ pair is relatively rigid. A combination of the energy transfer data with the structural information derived from analysis of Ca2(+)-ATPase crystals yields a structural model, in which the location of the AEDANS-, FITC- and Ca2+ sites are tentatively identified.

Abstract
Purified Na+, K(+)-ATPase was phosphorylated by [gamma-32P]ATP in a medium containing dimethylsulfoxide and 5 mM Mg2+ in the absence of Na+ and K+. Addition of K+ increased the phosphorylation levels from 0.4 nmol phosphoenzyme/mg of protein in the absence of K+ to 1.0 nmol phosphoenzyme/mg of protein in the presence of 0.5 mM K+. Higher velocities of enzyme phosphorylation were observed in the presence of 0.5 mM K+. Increasing K+ concentrations up to 100 mM lead to a progressive decrease in the phosphoenzyme (EP) levels. Control experiments, that were performed to determine the contribution to EP formation from the Pi inevitably present in the assays, showed that this contribution was of minor importance except at high (20-100 mM) KCl concentrations. The pattern of EP formation and its KCl dependence is thus characteristic for the phosphorylation of the enzyme by ATP. In the absence of Na+ and with 0.5 mM K+, optimal levels (1.0 nmol EP/mg of protein) were observed at 20-40% dimethylsulfoxide and pH 6.0 to 7.5. Addition of Na+ up to 5 mM has no effect on the phosphoenzyme level under these conditions. At 100 mM Na+ or higher the full capacity of enzyme phosphorylation (2.2 nmol EP/mg of protein) was reached. Phosphoenzyme formed from ATP in the absence of Na+ is an acylphosphate-type compound as shown by its hydroxylamine sensitivity. The phosphate radioactivity was incorporated into the alpha-subunit of the Na+, K(+)-ATPase as demonstrated by acid polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis followed by autoradiography.

Abstract
The dispositions with respect to the plane of the membrane of lysine-905 in the internal sequence -EQRKIVE- and of lysine-1012 in the carboxy-terminal sequence -RRPGGWVEKETYY of the alpha-polypeptide of sodium and potassium ion activated adenosinetriphosphatase have been determined. These lysines are found in peptides released from the intact alpha-polypeptide by the extracellular protease from Staphylococcus aureus strain V8 and by trypsin, respectively. Synthetic peptides containing terminal sequences of these were used to prepare polyclonal antibodies, which were then used to prepare immunoadsorbents directed against the respective peptides. Sealed, right-side-out membrane vesicles containing native (Na+ + K+)-ATPase were labeled with pyridoxal phosphate and sodium [3H]borohydride in the absence or presence of saponin. The labeled alpha-polypeptide was isolated from these vesicles and digested with appropriate proteases. The incorporation of radioactivity into the peptides binding to the immunoadsorbent directed against the sequence pyrERXIVE increased 3-fold in the presence of saponin as a result of the increased accessibility of this portion of the protein to the reagent when the vesicles were breached by saponin; hence, this sequence is located on the cytoplasmic face of the membrane. It was inferred that the carboxy-terminal sequence -KETYY is on the extracytoplasmic face since the incorporation of radioactivity into peptides binding to the immunoadsorbent directed against the sequence -ETYY did not change when the vesicles were breached with saponin.

Abstract
The Neurospora crassa plasma membrane H+-ATPase is rapidly inactivated in the presence of diethyl pyrocarbonate (DEP). The reaction is pseudo-first-order showing time- and concentration-dependent inactivation with a second-order rate constant of 385-420 M-1.min-1 at pH 6.9 and 25 degrees C. The difference spectrum of the native and modified enzyme has a maximum near 240 nm, characteristic of N-carbethoxyhistidine. No change in the absorbance of the inhibited ATPase at 278 nm or in the number of modifiable sulfhydryl groups is observed, indicating that the inhibition is not due to tyrosine or cysteine modification, and the inhibition is irreversible, ruling out serine residues. Furthermore, pretreatment of the ATPase with pyridoxal phosphate/NaBH4 under the conditions of the DEP treatment does not inhibit the ATPase and does not alter the DEP inhibition kinetics, indicating that the inactivation by DEP is not due to amino group modification. The pH dependence of the inactivation reaction indicates that the essential residue has a pKa near 7.5, and the activity lost as a result of H+-ATPase modification by DEP is partially recovered after hydroxylamine treatment at 4 degrees C. Taken together, these results strongly indicate that the inactivation of the H+-ATPase by DEP involves histidine modification. Analyses of the inhibition kinetics and the stoichiometry of modification indicate that among eight histidines modified per enzyme molecule, only one is essential for H+-ATPase activity. Finally, ADP protects against inactivation by DEP, indicating that the essential residue modified may be located at or near the nucleotide binding site.
