Abstract
Because nearly all structure/function studies on Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase have been done on enzymes prepared in the presence of SDS, we have studied previously unrecognized consequences of SDS interaction with the enzyme. When the purified membrane-bound kidney enzyme was solubilized with SDS or TDS concentrations just sufficient to cause complete solubilization, but not at concentrations severalfold higher, the enzyme retained quaternary structure, exhibiting alpha,alpha-, alpha,beta-, beta,beta-, and alpha,gamma-associations as detected by chemical cross-linking. The presence of solubilized oligomers was confirmed by sucrose density gradient centrifugation. This solubilized enzyme had no ATPase activity and was not phosphorylated by ATP, but it retained the ability to occlude Rb(+) and Na(+). This, and comparison of cross-linking patterns obtained with different reagents, suggested that the transmembrane domains of the enzyme are more resistant to SDS-induced unfolding than its other domains. These findings (a). indicate that the partially unfolded oligomer(s) retaining partial function is the intermediate in the SDS-induced denaturation of the native membrane enzyme having the minimum oligomeric structure of (alpha,beta,gamma)(2) and (b). suggest potential functions for Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase with intrinsically unfolded domains. Mixtures of solubilized/partially unfolded enzyme and membrane-bound enzyme exhibited cross-linking patterns and Na(+) occlusion capacities different from those of either enzyme species, suggesting that the two interact. Formation of the partially unfolded enzyme during standard purification procedure for the preparation of the membrane-bound enzyme was shown, indicating that it is necessary to ensure the separation of the partially unfolded enzyme from the membrane-bound enzyme to avoid the distortion of the properties of the latter.

Abstract
A family of aryl isothiouronium derivatives was designed as probes for cation binding sites of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase. Previous work showed that 1-bromo-2,4,6-tris(methylisothiouronium)benzene (Br-TITU) acts as a competitive blocker of Na(+) or K(+) occlusion. In addition to a high-affinity cytoplasmic site (K(D) < 1 microM), a low-affinity site (K(D) approximately 10 microM) was detected, presumably extracellular. Here we describe properties of Br-TITU as a blocker at the extracellular surface. In human red blood cells Br-TITU inhibits ouabain-sensitive Na(+) transport (K(D) approximately 30 microM) in a manner antagonistic with respect to extracellular Na(+). In addition, Br-TITU impairs K(+)-stimulated dephosphorylation and Rb(+) occlusion from phosphorylated enzyme of renal Na(+),K(+)-ATPase, consistent with binding to an extracellular site. Incubation of renal Na(+),K(+)-ATPase with Br-TITU at pH 9 irreversibly inactivates Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity and Rb(+) occlusion. Rb(+) or Na(+) ions protect. Preincubation of Br-TITU with red cells in a K(+)-free medium at pH 9 irreversibly inactivates ouabain-sensitive (22)Na(+) efflux, showing that inactivation occurs at an extracellular site. K(+), Cs(+), and Li(+) ions protect against this effect, but the apparent affinity for K(+), Cs(+), or Li(+) is similar (K(D) approximately 5 mM) despite their different affinities for external activation of the Na(+) pump. Br-TITU quenches tryptophan fluorescence of renal Na(+),K(+)-ATPase or of digested "19 kDa membranes". After incubation at pH 9 irreversible loss of tryptophan fluorescence is observed and Rb(+) or Na(+) ions protect. The Br-TITU appears to interact strongly with tryptophan residue(s) within the lipid or at the extracellular membrane-water interface and interfere with cation occlusion and Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity.

Abstract
Tissue-distinct interactions of the Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase with Na(+) and K(+), independent of isoform-specific properties, were reported previously (A. G. Therien, N. B. Nestor, W. J. Ball, and R. Blostein. J. Biol. Chem. 271: 7104-7112, 1996). In this paper, we describe a detailed analysis of tissue-specific kinetics particularly relevant to regulation of pump activity by intracellular K(+), namely K(+) inhibition at cytoplasmic Na(+) sites. Our results show that the order of susceptibilities of alpha(1) pumps of various rat tissues to K(+)/Na(+) antagonism, represented by the ratio of the apparent affinity for Na(+) binding at cytoplasmic activation sites in the absence of K(+) to the affinity constant for K(+) as a competitive inhibitor of Na(+) binding at cytoplasmic sites, is red blood cell < axolemma approximately rat alpha(1)-transfected HeLa cells < small intestine < kidney < heart. In addition, we have carried out an extensive analysis of the kinetics of K(+) binding and occlusion to the cytoplasmic cation binding site and find that, for most tissues, there is a relationship between the rate of K(+) binding/occlusion and the apparent affinity for K(+) as a competitive inhibitor of Na(+) activation, the order for both parameters being heart >/= kidney > small intestine approximately rat alpha(1)-transfected HeLa cells. The notion that modulations in cytoplasmic K(+)/Na(+) antagonism are a potential mode of pump regulation is underscored by evidence of its reversibility. Thus the relatively high K(+)/Na(+) antagonism characteristic of kidney pumps was reduced when rat kidney microsomal membranes were fused into the dog red blood cell.

Abstract
Site-directed mutagenesis and assay of Rb+ and Tl+ occlusion in recombinant Na,K-ATPase from yeast were combined to establish structure-function relationships of amino acid side chains involved in high-affinity occlusion of K+ in the E2[2K] form. The wild-type yeast enzyme was capable of occluding 2 Rb+ or Tl+ ions/ouabain binding site or alpha 1 beta 1 unit with high apparent affinity (Kd(Tl+) = 7 +/- 2 microM), like the purified Na,K-ATPase from pig kidney. Mutations of Glu327(Gln,Asp), Asp804(Asn, Glu), Asp808(Asn, Glu) and Glu779(Asp) abolished high-affinity occlusion of Rb+ or Tl+ ions. The substitution of Glu779 for Gln reduced the occlusion capacity to 1 Tl+ ion/alpha 1 beta 1-unit with a 3-fold decrease of the apparent affinity for the ion (Kd(Tl+) = 24 +/- 8 microM). These effects on occlusion were closely correlated to effects of the mutations on K0.5(K+) for K+ displacement of ATP binding. Each of the four carboxylate residues Glu327, Glu779, and Asp804 or Asp808 in transmembrane segments 4, 5, and 6 is therefore essential for high-affinity occlusion of K+ in the E2[2K] form. These residues either may engage directly in cation coordination or they may be important for formation or stability of the occlusion cavity.

Abstract
Glutamic acid residues in transmembrane segments of the alpha subunit of the Na+,K+-ATPase have been discussed as possible candidates for the binding sites of the transported cations. Here we report on effects of mutations of Glu334, Glu959, and Glu960 to alanine in ouabain-sensitive (OS) as well as ouabain-resistant (OR) ATPases of Torpedo electroplax expressed in Xenopus oocytes. All mutants are incorporated to about the same extend as the wild-type ATPases into the plasma membrane. None of the mutations produces complete inhibition of transport activity as judged from measurements of 86Rb+ uptake, membrane current, and ATPase activity. After conversion of OS to OR by mutation of the bordering residues of the first extracellular loop Gln118 to Arg and Asp129 to Asn, the Km value for inhibition by ouabain increases to 59 microM. Substitution of Glu334 to Ala in the OR pump variant restores ouabain sensitivity with a Km value of 0.12 microM, which is similar to that of the endogenous Xenopus pump. After substitution of Glu960 by Ala in the OR pump, ouabain sensitivity is partially restored. The Km values for pump stimulation by external K+ appear to be reduced in the OR compared to the OS pump. Mutation of Glu959 and Glu960 to Ala has no pronounced effects on the potential-dependent Km values at external pH 7.8; only in the Glu959-mutated OR pump, the apparent Km at 0 mV is raised. We conclude that none of the mutated glutamic acid residues is essential for cation coordination, but that GIu334, and in part also Glu960, seems to be involved in preserving the ouabain-resistant conformation of the enzyme.

Abstract
From the structural data obtained by systematically altering residues of the Na,K-ATPase, we are beginning to understand portions of how this active cation transporter couples hydrolysis of ATP with the vectorial movement of cations against their ionic gradients. In addition, the inhibitory action of cardiac glycosides and their interaction sites on the protein has focused our attentions on a catalytic core of the protein involving the H5-H6 transmembrane segment. In future investigations, both the ATP and the Na+ sites of the Na,K-ATPase must be uncovered to refine the structural picture of this complex transporter.

Abstract
The functional roles of Asp804 and Asp808, located in the sixth transmembrane segment of the Na,K-ATPase alpha subunit, were examined. Nonconservative replacement of these residues yielded enzymes unable to support cell viability. Only the conservative substitution, Ala808 --> Glu, was able to maintain the essential cation gradients (Van Huysse, J. W., Kuntzweiler, T. A., and Lingrel, J. B (1996) FEBS Lett. 389, 179-185). Asp804 and Asp808 were replaced by Ala, Asn, and Glu in the sheep alpha1 subunit and expressed in a mouse cell line where [3H]ouabain binding was utilized to probe the exogenous proteins. All of the heterologous proteins were targeted into the plasma membrane, bound ouabain and nucleotides, and adopted E1Na, E1ATP, and E2P conformations. K+ competition of ouabain binding to sheep alpha1 and Asp808 --> Glu enzymes displayed IC50 values of 4.11 mM (nHill = 1.4) and 23.8 mM (nHill = 1.6), respectively. All other substituted proteins lacked this K+-ouabain antagonism, e.g. 150 mM KCl did not inhibit ouabain binding. Na+ antagonized ouabain binding to all the expressed isoforms, however, the proteins carrying nonconservative substitutions displayed reduced Hill coefficients (nHill </= 2.0) compared to the control (nHill </= 2.8). Therefore, Asp804 and Asp808 of the Na,K-ATPase are required for normal Na+ and K+ transport, possibly coordinating these cations during transport.

Abstract
Proteins of n-octyl glucoside solubilized membrane vesicles derived from Ehrlich ascites tumor cells can occlude 86Rb+.K+ displaces 86Rb+ and it is assumed that 86Rb+ can be used as a tracer to measure K+ occlusion. The following observations indicate that the Na+/K+/2Cl- cotransporter is responsible for this occlusion: (1) Na+ does not compete for the K+ binding site, but rather stimulates 86Rb+ occlusion. (2) K+ occlusion saturates with increasing [Na+] and [K+], the respective K0.5 values being 50 +/- 7 microM for Na+ and 371 +/- 63 microM for K+. (3) Preincubation with 1 mM ouabain does not inhibit 86Rb+ occlusion, arguing against the Na+/K+-ATPase as being responsible for the occlusion. This notion is supported by the K0.5 value for K+ being higher than reported for Na+/K+-ATPase and by the stimulatory effect of Na+. (4) The K+ occlusion is sensitive to [Cl-], and the occluded ion is protected by the presence of bumetanide during cation exchange chromatography. Our results suggest that occlusion measurements of substrate ions could be a profitable way to study the ion binding mechanism(s) of the Na+/K+/2Cl- cotransporter.

Abstract
At two intramembrane carboxyl-containing amino acids of the sheep alpha1 isoform of Na,K-ATPase (Asp804 and Asp808), both charge-conserving (Asp to Glu) and charge-deleting (Asp to Asn, Leu and Ala) replacements were made and the altered enzymes studied. Nucleotide changes encoding the amino acid substitutions were placed in a cDNA encoding a ouabain-resistant enzyme (sheep alpha1 RD) and the encoded enzymes were expressed in ouabain-sensitive HeLa cells. Transfections with cDNAs carrying all Asp804 substitutions, along with those carrying Asp808Ala, Asp808Asn, and Asp808Leu replacements failed to confer ouabain resistance to the cells, indicating critical roles for Asp804 and Asp808. Only the expression of the Asp808Glu enzyme produced ouabain-resistant HeLa cells, demonstrating that the altered protein was functional. When the inactive proteins Asp804Ala and Asp808Ala were expressed using an alternative selection system (the protein carrying the amino acid substitution was the ouabain-sensitive wild-type sheep alpha1 Na,K-ATPase, which was expressed in ouabain-resistant 3T3 cells), intact cells were able to bind extracellular ouabain with high affinity (Kd = 1-30 nM), indicating that the inactive proteins were synthesized and folded properly in the plasma membrane. The results demonstrate that carboxyl side chains at positions 804 and 808 are critical for enzyme catalytic function.

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

Abstract
This paper describes properties of a novel family of aromatic isothiouronium derivatives, which act as Na(+)-like competitive antagonists on renal Na/K-ATPase. The derivatives are reversible competitors of Rb+ and Na+ occlusion. Ki values of the most potent compounds, 1-bromo-2,4,6-tris(methylisothiouronium)benzene (Br-TITU) and 1,3-dibromo-2,4,6-tris(methylisothiouronium)benzene(Br2-TITU ), 0.65 and 0.32 microM, respectively, are 15-30-fold lower than Ki values of the bis-guanidinium derivatives described previously (David, P., Mayan, H., Cohen, H., Tal, D. M., and Karlish, S. J. D. (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 267, 1141-1149), and represent the lowest reported values for cation antagonists. Using fluorescein-labeled Na/K-ATPase, all derivatives have been shown to stabilize the E1 conformation when bound at high affinity sites (i.e. they are sodium-like). In addition, in one condition (10 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.1), high concentrations of Br-TITU (KD approximately 10 microM) appear to stabilize an E2 conformation. We propose a model which allows for simultaneous binding of the antagonists to high affinity cytoplasmic sites and low affinity sites, which may be at the extracellular surface. Blockage of cation occlusion by the isothiouronium derivatives at the cytoplasmic surface probably occurs at the entrance to the occlusion sites, which is recognized both by Na+ antagonists and by Na+ or K+ ions. Unlike the alkali metal cations, the Na+ antagonists are not occluded or transported (see also Or, E., David, P., Shainskaya, A., Tal, D. M., and Karlish, S. J. D. (1993) J. Biol. Chem. 268, 16929-16937). The isothiouronium derivatives appear to be promising candidates for further development as affinity labels of cation binding domains, for kinetic analysis of isoforms or mutated Na/K pumps, or as probes of other cation transport proteins.

Abstract
By combining the tools of site-directed mutagenesis and [3H]ouabain binding, the functional role of glutamic acid 327 in the fourth transmembrane domain of the sheep alpha 1 isoform of Na+,K(+)-ATPase was examined with respect to its interactions with ouabain, Na+,K+,Mg2+, and inorganic phosphate. Using site-directed mutagenesis, this glutamic acid was substituted with alanine, aspartic acid, glutamine, and leucine. The mutant proteins were constructed in a sheep alpha 1 protein background such that [3H]ouabain binding could be utilized as a highly specific probe of the exogenous protein expressed in NIH 3T3 cells. Na+ competition of [3H]ouabain binding to the mutant forms of Na+,K(+)-ATPase revealed only slight alterations in their affinities for Na+ and in their abilities to undergo Na(+)-induced conformational changes which inhibit ouabain binding. In contrast, K+ competition of [3H]ouabain binding to all four mutant forms of Na+,K(+)-ATPase displayed severely altered interactions between these proteins and K+. Interestingly, [3H]ouabain binding to the mutant E327Q was not inhibited by the presence of K+. This mutant was previously reported to be functionally able to support cation transport with a 5-fold reduced K0.5 for K(+)-dependent ATPase activity (Jewell-Motz, E. A., and Lingrel, J.B. (1993) Biochemistry 32, 13523-13530; Vilsen, B. (1993) Biochemistry 32, 13340-13349). Thus, it appears that this glutamic acid in the fourth transmembrane domain may be important for stabilizing a K(+)-induced conformation within the catalytic cycle of Na+,K(+)-ATPase that is not rate-limiting in the overall ATPase cycle but that displays a greatly reduced affinity for ouabain.

Abstract
A monoclonal IgG, directed to phosphatidylserine (PS1G3), partially (40-50%) inhibited Na+/K(+)-ATPase activity (forward running reaction cycle) without affecting the K0.5 values for Na+,K+ and MgATP. The Hill or interaction coefficients (nH) for Na+ and K+ for this reaction were reduced from 3.0 to 1.6 and from 1.6 to 0.8, respectively. The K(+)-stimulated p-nitrophenylphosphatase activity (p-NPPase), which is a partial reaction sequence of the Na+/K(+)-ATPase system (but in the backward running mode), was inhibited more strongly (about 70%) due to an increase in K+/substrate antagonism. In this system K0.5 and nH values for both p-nitrophenyl phosphate (p-NPP) and K+ were increased by the mAb. At the maximally inhibitory concentration of PS1G3 the Vmax of the p-NPPase was also reduced. Partial reactions, which were inhibited by PS1G3, are: (1) the Na(+)-activated phosphorylation (non-competitive vs. Na+), (2) the Rb+ occlusion (competitive vs. Rb+). Partial reactions not harmed by PS1G3 are: (3) the K(+)-dependent dephosphorylation, (4) the K(+)-dependent E1 + K+<-->E2K transition. We conclude that PtdSer is involved in cation occlusion, possibly by forming part of the access gate.

Abstract
Circular dichroism (CD) and acrylamide quenching studies of Na+,K(+)-ATPase from human placenta showed that its incorporation into phosphatidylcholine vesicles increased the enzymic activity by 55%. Moreover, both with the purified and the vesicle-reconstituted protein, Ca2+ and Mg2+ increased the activity, the effect being more pronounced after preincubation of the protein with Mg2+. CD data suggest that this activity increase may be linked to a change in the secondary structure of the ATPase, in particular beta-turn, beta-sheet and random coil. Acrylamide quenching studies suggest that ions could primarily interact with phospholipid head groups, but not directly with the protein.

Abstract
In a search for an organic analogue of K+ or Na+ ions that binds to the cation binding sites of Na+/K(+)-ATPase with high affinity, the potency of the diuretic amiloride and its derivatives in blocking Rb+ occlusion has been tested. Although amiloride itself has a low affinity (> 200 microM), insertion of short alkyl chains in position 5 of the pyrazine ring of the molecule dramatically increased the affinity of the compound. For example, 5-(N-ethyl-N-isopropyl)amiloride (EIPA) competes with a Ki approximately 10 microM. In derivatives lacking a halogen in position 6 of the ring, a 6-fold decrease in affinity was found. Substitutions in the guanidinium moiety did not produce high affinity inhibitors of Rb+ occlusion. Several derivatives at positions 5 and 6 of the pyrazine ring were found to be strictly competitive inhibitors with respect to Rb+ ions. The highest affinity was observed around pH 8.0-8.2, and low temperature. EIPA and 5-(N-methyl-N-isobutyl)amiloride (MIBA) stabilized the E1 form of FITC1-labelled Na+/K(+)-ATPase, behaving as Na+ analogues. The present findings are similar to our previous results, showing that alkyl- and arylguanidinium derivatives are competitive Na(+)-like antagonists in cation sites. Conclusions concerning the structural features of amiloride derivatives which are necessary to produce the highest binding affinity, are being exploited in synthesis of competitive cation analogues. Derivatives with sufficiently high affinity (0.1-1 microM) will be converted to affinity and photoaffinity reagents.

Abstract
Chemical modification and proteolytic digestion studies have identified a transmembrane glutamic acid residue (E953) of the alpha subunit of the pig kidney Na, K-ATPase as a possible cation binding site [Goldshleger et al. (1992) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 89, 6911-6915]. In addition, an adjacent glutamate (E954) is conserved in all species and isoforms and may also be involved in cation binding. To further explore the role of these residues in ion transport, we have utilized a mutagenesis-expression strategy. This approach avoids the introduction of a large chemical moiety into the protein and allows specific amino acid substitutions to be introduced. Glutamic acid residues 955 and 956 of the rat alpha-1 subunit (corresponding to glutamates 953 and 954 of the pig kidney Na, K-ATPase) were replaced separately and together using site-directed mutagenesis of the rat alpha-1 cDNA. The mutant cDNAs were expressed in ouabain-sensitive HeLa cells. This system makes it possible to rapidly identify amino acid substitutions which significantly impair enzyme function, as substitutions which do not affect enzyme activity will yield colonies in the presence of ouabain, while substitutions which severely impair function will prevent or limit growth of the ouabain-sensitive HeLa cells. The amino acid replacements (E955Q, E956Q, E955Q-E956Q, E955D-E956D) all resulted in the growth of ouabain-sensitive cells, demonstrating that the modified Na, K-ATPase in each case was functional. To further study the altered enzymes, ouabain-resistant colonies were isolated and expanded into stable cell lines.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Covalent linkage of ethylenediamine with the Na+/K(+)-ATPase complex from rabbit kidney outer medulla by the use of the water-soluble carbodiimide, N-ethyl,N'-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide, resulted in a 73% reaction with phosphatidylserine and only 27% with carboxylic groups in the proteic component of the enzyme. Condensation products from the reaction between phosphatidylserine and ethylenediamine, N-(O-phosphatidylseryl)ethylenediamine, N,N'-bis(O-phosphatidylseryl)ethylenediamine and its intermediary product O-phosphatidyl-[N,N'-bis(seryl)]ethylenediamine, were synthesised. Symmetrically substituted ethylenediamine was the most likely condensation product of ethylenediamine with endogenous phosphatidylserine. The synthesised lipids were incorporated in proteoliposomes containing Na+/K(+)-ATPase and only the addition of the phospholipid phosphatidylcholine. The ratio of phospholipid to protein was 52 (w/w). These proteoliposomes were perforated by the addition of 0.5% cholate and both the Na(+)-dependent phosphorylation level and its dependence on Na+, Mg2+ and ATP were measured. Phosphatidylcholine alone increased the half-maximal activation concentration for Na+ ([Na+]0.5) from 0.2 to 1-2 mM, for Mg2+ from 0.1 to 0.8 microM and for ATP from 0.02 to 0.3 microM. The Ki for K+ (in the absence of Na+) was unaffected: 12.8 microM vs. 12.5 microM in the non-reconstituted system. Replacing 10 mol% of phosphatidylcholine by phosphatidylethanolamine: or phosphatidylserine had no significant effect on [Na+]0.5: 1.1 and 0.7 mM, respectively. Replacing 5 mol% phosphatidylcholine by the bis(phosphatidylseryl) substituent of ethylenediamine further increased [Na+]0.5 to 13.7 mM, while half-maximal activation concentrations for Mg2+ and ATP were unaltered. The mono-phosphatidylseryl derivatives of ethylenediamine, each 5 mol%, also increased [Na+]0.5, but to a lesser extent (3.2-3.8 mM). In addition to their competitive effects, the phosphatidylseryl-substituted ethylenediamine compounds exerted a slowly-increasing non-competitive inhibition, not only in phosphorylation, but also in overall ATPase activity, which was reduced, although not abolished, by exogenous protein (bovine serum albumin). A detergent-like action in the usual sense is unlikely since liposomes containing these lipids remained intact. These studies prove that phospholipids are not only required for optimal activity of this transport enzyme, but in excess or in compositions deviating from the normal, may also be inhibitory.

Abstract
In liposomes with reconstituted shark Na+/K(+)-ATPase the effect of cytoplasmic K+ was investigated in the absence of extracellular alkali ions. During such conditions the Na+/K(+)-ATPase is engaged in the so called uncoupled Na+ efflux mode in which cytoplasmic Na+ activates and binds to the enzyme and becomes translocated without countertransport of K+ as in the physiological Na+/K+ exchange mode. In this uncoupled flux mode only low-affinity inhibition by K+cyt is found to be present. The inhibition pattern is consistent with a model in which cytoplasmic K+ exhibit mixed inhibition of Na+ activation, probably by binding at the three cytoplasmic loading sites on E1ATP (E1A). With determined intrinsic binding constants for cytoplasmic Na+ to this form of KS1, KS2, KS3 = 40 mM, 2 mM, 2 mM the inhibition pattern can be simulated assuming three K+cyt sites with equal affinity for Ki = 40 mM, similar to KS1 for the first Na+cyt site. The discrimination between cytoplasmic Na+ and K+ is therefore enhanced by allosteric interaction initiated from the cis-side due to binding of the first Na+, as opposed to K+, which induces the positive cooperatively in the successive Na+ bindings. pH is found to influence the pattern of K+cyt inhibition: A lowering of the pH potentiates the K+cyt inhibition, whereas at increased pH the inhibition is decreased and transformed into a pure competitive competition.

Abstract
Oligomycin induces occlusion of Na+ in membrane-bound Na,K-ATPase. Here it is shown that Na,K-ATPase from pig kidney or shark rectal gland solubilized in the nonionic detergent C12E8 is capable of occluding Na+ in the presence of oligomycin. The apparent affinity for Na+ is reduced for both enzymes upon solubilization, and there is an increase in the sigmoidicity of binding curves, which indicates a change in the cooperativity between the occluded ions. A high detergent/protein ratio leads to a decreased occlusion capacity. De-occlusion of Na+ by addition of K+ is slow for solubilized Na,K-ATPase, with a rate constant of about 0.1 s-1 at 6 degrees C. Stopped-flow fluorescence experiments with 6-carboxyeosin, which can be used to monitor the E1Na-form in detergent solution, show that the K(+)-induced de-occlusion of Na+ correlates well with the fluorescence decrease which follows the transition from the E1Na-form to the E2-form. There is a marked increase in the rate of fluorescence change at high detergent/protein ratios, indicating that the properties of solubilized enzyme are subject to modification by detergent in other respects than mere solubilization of the membrane-bound enzyme. The temperature dependence of the rate of de-occlusion in the range 2 degrees C to 12 degrees C is changed slightly upon solubilization, with activation energies in the range 20-23 kcal/mol for membrane-bound enzyme, increasing to 26-30 kcal/mol for solubilized enzyme. Titrations of the rate of transition from E1Na to E2K with oligomycin can be interpreted in a model with oligomycin having an apparent dissociation constant of about 2.5 microM for C12E8-solubilized shark Na,K-ATPase and 0.2 microM for solubilized pig kidney Na,K-ATPase.

Abstract
Na,K-ATPase function was studied in cultured bovine lens epithelial cells under confluent and non-confluent conditions. The affinity of the Na,K-ATPase for the cardiac glycoside, ouabain, differs between the confluent and non-confluent cultures. The confluent cells have a higher affinity for ouabain than do the non-confluent cells. The ouabain affinity of the confluent cells is similar to that for the Na,K-ATPase isolated from the bovine axolemma and the bovine lens cortex. The ouabain affinity of the non-confluent cells is similar to that for the Na,K-ATPase of the renal medulla and bovine lens epithelium. Similar results are not found with confluent and non-confluent MDCK cells. H2O2 treatment of confluent and non-confluent lens epithelial cell cultures has differing effects on the Na,K-ATPase function. In the confluent cell preparations, H2O2 affects K(+)-dependent dephosphorylation of the intermediate phosphoenzyme. In the non-confluent preparations. H2O2 appears to inhibit K(+)-occlusion.

Abstract
Oligomycin interacts with the Na,K-ATPase by increasing the apparent Na+ affinity in the non-phosphorylated state of the enzyme. This property is used to estimate rate constants attributed to oligomycin binding and dissociation reactions with Na,K-ATPase. The rate constants are determined indirectly, employing stop-flow fluorimetry of eosin, the fluorescence of which is a marker for the E1 state of the enzyme, i.e. for Na+ binding. The second-order rate constants derived for oligomycin binding are in the range (6-12).10(4) M-1 s-1 at 6 degrees C for both shark rectal gland and pig kidney enzyme. Rate constants for dissociation of the enzyme-oligomycin complex are about 0.05 s-1 at 6 degrees C. The slow rates of binding and dissociation suggest that oligomycin acts from within the membrane lipid phase rather than from the aqueous phase. The dissociation constant at 6 degrees C for the enzyme-oligomycin complex can be calculated to be about 1 microM for shark enzyme and about 2 microM for kidney enzyme, at pH 7.0 in 2 mM NaCl.

Abstract
Recently, we have shown that a hydrophobic amine (AU-1421) produces an irreversible inactivation of Na+/K(+)-ATPase activity. This inactivation was prevented by K+ and its congeners. In this study, we examined the possibility of Ca2+ or ethylenediamine as a probe of the K+ occlusion center of Na+/K(+)-ATPase. The inactivation by AU-1421 was prevented by Ca2+ with an apparent high affinity (approximately 0.1 mM). Ca2+ protection was cancelled by high concentrations of ATP, ADP or Mg2+. Ca2+ and K+ were similar in these respects. Kinetic analyses of the above data indicated the presence of two AU-1421 occlusion sites on the enzyme, either one of which is susceptible to Ca2+ occlusion. Ethylenediamine also prevented the inactivation by AU-1421 or by C12E8 solubilization of the enzyme, suggesting that ethylenediamine, like K+, stabilized the enzyme. However, an apparent affinity of ethylenediamine (approximately 1.4 mM) was one order of magnitude lower than that of K+ (approximately 0.2 mM), and the protective manner did not show a simple competition. In addition, ethylenediamine binding was unaffected by ATP or ADP at a low affinity site, and antagonized K+ binding. From these results we concluded that ethylenediamine does not act like K+ or Ca2+ in protecting AU-1421 inactivation, since it can't stabilize the enzyme conformation as an E2 (K(+)-bound form).

Abstract
This paper describes measurements of electrical potentials generated by renal Na/K-ATPase reconstituted into proteoliposomes, utilizing the anionic dye, oxonol VI. Calibration of absorption changes with imposed diffusion potentials allows estimation of absolute values of electrogenic potentials. ATP-dependent Nacyt/Kexc exchange in K-loaded vesicles generates large potentials, up to 250 mV. By comparing initial rates or steady-state potentials with ATP-dependent 22Na fluxes in different conditions, it is possible to infer whether coupling ratios are constant or variable. For concentrations of Nacyt (2-50 mM) and ATP (1-1000 microM) and pH's (6.5-8.5), the classical 3Nacyt/2Kexc coupling ratio is maintained. However, at low Nacyt concentrations (less than 0.8 mM), the coupling ratio is apparently less than 3Nacyt/2Kexc. ATP-dependent Nacyt/congenerexc exchange in vesicles loaded with Rb, Cs, Li and Na is electrogenic. In this mode congeners, including Naexc, act as Kexc surrogates in an electrogenic 3Nacyt/2congenerexc exchange. (ATP + Pi)-dependent Kcyt/Kexc exchange in K-loaded vesicles is electroneutral. ATP-dependent "uncoupled" Na flux into Na- and K-free vesicles is electroneutral at pH 6.5-7.0 but becomes progressively electrogenic as the pH is raised to 8.5. The 22Na flux shows no anion specificity. We propose that "uncoupled" Na flux is an electroneutral 3Nacyt/3Hexc exchange at pH 6.5-7.0 but at higher pH's the coupling ratio changes progressively, reaching 3Na/no ions at pH 8.5. Slow passive pump-mediated net K uptake into Na- and K-free vesicles is electroneutral, and may also involve Kcyt/Hexc exchange. We propose the general hypothesis that coupling ratios are fixed when cation transport sites are saturated, but at low concentrations of transported cations, e.g., Nacyt in Na/K exchange and Hexc in "uncoupled" Na flux, coupling ratios may change.

Chemical modification of specific residues in enzymes, with the characterization of the type of inhibition and properties of the modified activity, is an established approach in structure-function studies of proteins. This strategy has become more productive in recent years with the advances made in obtaining primary sequence information from gene-cloning technologies. This article discusses the application of chemical modification procedures to the study of the Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase protein. A wide array of information has become available about the kinetics, enzyme structure, and various conformational states as a result of the combined use of inhibitors, ligands, modifiers, and proteolytic enzymes. We will review a variety of reagents and approaches that have been employed to arrive at structure-function correlates and discuss critically the limits and ambiguities in the type of information obtained from these methodologies. Chemical modification of the Na(+)-pump protein has already provided a body of data and will, we anticipate, guide the efforts of mutagenesis studies in the future when suitable expression systems become available.

Abstract
Interactions between the ligands Mg2+, K+, and substrate and the Na+/K+-activated ATPase were examined in terms of a rapid-equilibrium, random-order, terreactant kinetic scheme for the K+-nitrophenyl phosphatase reaction that is catalyzed by this enzyme. At 37 degrees C and pH 7.5 the derived values for the dissociation constants from the free enzyme were 0.2, 0.08, and 1.4 mM for Mg2+, K+, and substrate, respectively. For Mg2+ interactions, the presence of 20% (v/v) dimethyl sulfoxide (Me2SO) increased the calculated affinity 25-fold; higher concentrations increased affinity still further. Neither reducing the temperature to 20 degrees C nor altering the pH from 6.5 to 8.3 appreciably changed the affinity for Mg2+ in the absence or presence of Me2SO. The Mg2+ sites are thus characterized by an absence of functional groups ionizable in the pH range 6.5-8.3, with binding driven by entropy changes, and with Me2SO, probably through solvation effects on the protein, increasing affinity for Mg2+ close to that for Ca2+ and Mn2+. By contrast, for K+ interactions, the presence of 20% Me2SO increased the calculated affinity only by half; moreover, reducing the temperature to 20 degrees C and the pH to 6.5 both increased affinity and diminished the response to Me2SO. The K+ sites are thus characterized by a marked sensitivity to pH and temperature, presumably through alterations in enzyme conformational equilibria that in turn are modifiable by Me2SO. Inhibition by higher concentrations of Mg2+, which varies inversely with the K+ concentration, was decreased by Me2SO. Finally, for substrate interactions, the presence of 20% Me2SO increased the calculated affinity 4-fold, and, as for Mg2+-binding, neither reducing the temperature nor varying the pH over the range 6.5-8.3 appreciably altered the affinity in the absence or presence of Me2SO. Thus, the substrate sites, like the Mg2+ sites, are characterized by an absence of functional groups ionizable in this range, with binding driven by entropy changes, and with Me2SO increasing affinity for substrate, in this case probably through favoring the partitioning of substrate from the medium into the hydrophobic active site.
