Abstract
P-type ATPases form a large family of cation translocating ATPases. Recent progress in crystallography yielded several high-resolution structures of Ca(2+)-ATPase from sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum (SERCA) in various conformations. They could elucidate the conformational changes of the enzyme, which are necessary for the translocation of cations, or the mechanism that explains how the nucleotide binding is coupled to the cation transport. However, crystals of proteins are usually obtained only under conditions that significantly differ from the physiological ones and with ligands that are incompatible with the enzyme function, and both of these factors can inevitably influence the enzyme structure. Biochemical (such as mutagenesis, cleavage, and labeling) or spectroscopic experiments can yield only limited structural information, but this information could be considered relevant, because measurement can be performed under physiological conditions and with true ligands. However, interpretation of some biochemical or spectroscopic data could be difficult without precise knowledge of the structure. Thus, only a combination of both these approaches can extract the relevant information and identify artifacts. Briefly, there is good agreement between crystallographic and other experimental data concerning the overall shape of the molecule and the movement of cytoplasmic domains. On the contrary, the E1-AMPPCP crystallographic structure is, in details, in severe conflict with numerous spectroscopic experiments and probably does not represent the physiological state. Notably, the E1-ADP-AlF(4) structure is almost identical to the E1-AMPPCP, again suggesting that the structure is primarily determined by the crystal-growth conditions. The physiological relevance of the E2 and E2-P structures is also questionable, because the crystals were prepared in the presence of thapsigargin, which is known to be a very efficient inhibitor of SERCA. Thus, probably only crystals of E1-2Ca conformation could reflect some physiological state. Combination of biochemical, spectroscopic, and crystallographic data revealed amino acids that are responsible for the interaction with the nucleotide. High sequence homology of the P-type ATPases in the cytoplasmic domains enables prediction of the ATP-interacting amino acids also for other P-type ATPases.

Abstract
The structure of the N-domain of porcine alpha(2) Na,K-ATPase was determined crystallographically to 3.2A resolution by isomorphous heavy-atom replacement using a single mercury derivative. The structure was finally refined against 2.6A resolution synchrotron data. The domain forms a seven-stranded antiparallel beta-sheet with two additional beta-strands forming a hairpin and five alpha-helices. Approximately 75% of the residues were superimposable with residues from the structure of Ca-ATPase N-domain, and a structure-based sequence alignment is presented. The positions of key residues are discussed in relation to the pattern of hydrophobicity, charge and sequence conservation of the molecular surface. The structure of a hexahistidine tag binding to nickel ions is presented.

Abstract
A highly conserved amino acid sequence 442GDASE446 in the ATP binding pocket of rat Na/K-ATPase was mutated, and the resulting proteins, G442A, G442P, D443A, S445A, and E446A, were expressed in HeLa cells to investigate the effect of individual ligands on Na/K-ATPase. The apparent Km for the high and low affinity ATP effects was estimated by ATP concentration dependence for the formation of the Na-dependent phosphoenzyme (Kmh) and Na/K-ATPase activity (Kml). The apparent Km for p-nitrophenylphosphate (pNPP) for K-dependent-pNPPase (KmP) and its inhibition by ATP (Ki,0.5) and the apparent Km for Mg2+, Na+, K+, and vanadate in Na/K-ATPase were also estimated. For all the mutants, the value for ATP was approximately 2-10-fold larger than that of the wild type. While the turnover number for Na/K-ATPase activity were unaffected or reduced by 20 approximately 50% in mutants G442(A/P) and D443A. Although both affinities for ATP effects were reduced as a result of the mutations, the ratio, Kml Kmh, for each mutant was 1.3 approximately 3.7, indicating that these mutations had a greater impact on the low affinity ATP effect than on the high affinity effect. Each KmP value with the turnover number suggests that these mutations favor the binding of pNPP over that of ATP. These data and others indicate that the sequence 442GDASE446 in the ATP binding pocket is an important motif that it is involved in both the high and low affinity ATP effects rather than in free Mg2+, Na+, and K+ effects.

Abstract
The cell membrane Na,K-ATPase is a member of the P-type family of active cation transport proteins. Recently the molecular structure of the related sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca-ATPase in an E1 conformation has been determined at 2.6 A resolution. Furthermore, theoretical models of the Ca-ATPase in E2 conformations are available. As a result of these developments, these structural data have allowed construction of homology models that address the central questions of mechanism of active cation transport by all P-type cation pumps. This review relates recent evidence on functional sites of Na,K-ATPase for the substrate (ATP), the essential cofactor (Mg(2+) ions), and the transported cations (Na(+) and K(+)) to the molecular structure. The essential elements of the Ca-ATPase structure, including 10 transmembrane helices and well-defined N, P, and A cytoplasmic domains, are common to all PII-type pumps such as Na,K-ATPase and H,K-ATPases. However, for Na,K-ATPase and H,K-ATPase, which consist of both alpha- and beta-subunits, there may be some detailed differences in regions of subunit interactions. Mutagenesis, proteolytic cleavage, and transition metal-catalyzed oxidative cleavages are providing much evidence about residues involved in binding of Na(+), K(+), ATP, and Mg(2+) ions and changes accompanying E1-E2 or E1-P-E2-P conformational transitions. We discuss this evidence in relation to N, P, and A cytoplasmic domain interactions, and long-range interactions between the active site and the Na(+) and K(+) sites in the transmembrane segments, for the different steps of the catalytic cycle.

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

Abstract
A single-step procedure was developed for the incorporation of iodoazide into oleic acid, triolein, and phosphatidylcholine. Iodoazide was generated using [125I]iodomonochloride and sodium azide that was found to add stereospecifically in a variety of olefins. Photoreactive and radiolabeled triacylglycerol and phosphatidylcholine were synthesized with a moderate yield and high specific activity. The stability of both the radiolabel and the photoreactive group was studied under ultraviolet light under aqueous as well as anhydrous conditions. These synthesized analogs act as substrates in the dark, and as irreversible inhibitors under ultraviolet irradiation for the target hydrolytic enzymes. The synthesized radiolabeled photoprobes were subsequently used to label lipase and phospholipase A(2). The results highlighted the efficiency and rapidity of the method and its potential application in the study of lipid-metabolizing enzymes.

Abstract
Sphingosine kinase catalyzes the formation of sphingosine 1-phosphate, a lipid second messenger that has been implicated in a number of agonist-driven cellular responses including mitogenesis, anti-apoptosis, and expression of inflammatory molecules. Despite the importance of sphingosine kinase, very little is known regarding its structure or mechanism of catalysis. Moreover, sphingosine kinase does not contain recognizable catalytic or substrate-binding sites, based on sequence motifs found in other kinases. Here we have elucidated the nucleotide-binding site of human sphingosine kinase 1 (hSK1) through a combination of site-directed mutagenesis and affinity labeling with the ATP analogue, FSBA. We have shown that Gly(82) of hSK1 is involved in ATP binding since mutation of this residue to alanine resulted in an enzyme with an approximately 45-fold higher K(m)((ATP)). We have also shown that Lys(103) is important in catalysis since an alanine substitution of this residue ablates catalytic activity. Furthermore, we have shown that this residue is covalently modified by FSBA. Our data, combined with amino acid sequence comparison, suggest a motif of SGDGX(17-21)K is involved in nucleotide binding in the sphingosine kinases. This motif differs in primary sequence from all previously identified nucleotide-binding sites. It does, however, share some sequence and likely structural similarity with the highly conserved glycine-rich loop, which is known to be involved in anchoring and positioning the nucleotide in the catalytic site of many protein kinases.

Abstract
To investigate the relationship between the high and the low affinity ATP-binding site, which appears during the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase reaction, four amino acids were mutated, the side chains of which are exposed to inside of the ATP-binding pocket. Six mutants, F475Y, K480A, K480E, K501A, K501E, and R544A, where the numbers correspond to the pig Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase alpha-chain, were expressed in HeLa cells. The apparent affinities were determined by high affinity ATP-dependent phosphorylation and by the low affinity activation of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase or low affinity ATP inhibition of K(+)-para-nitrophenylphosphatase (pNPPase). For the mutants K480A and K501A, little affinity change was detected for either the high affinity or the low affinity effect. In contrast, the other four mutants reduced both apparent affinities. Strikingly, R544A had a 30-fold greater effect on the high affinity ATP site than the low affinity site. For the F475Y mutant, it is likely that there was a greater effect on the low affinity site than the high affinity site, but for both F475Y and K480E the affinity for the low affinity ATP effect was reduced so much that it was not possible to estimate a K(0.5). However, both the affinities for the K480E were reduced to approximately 1/20. The turnover number of the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase and the apparent affinity for Na(+) and pNPP was reduced slightly or not at all for these mutants, but the turnover number of K(+)-pNPPase and the apparent affinity for K(+) were increased. These and other data suggest the presence of only one ATP-binding site, which can change its conformation to accept ATP with a high and low affinity. The requirement of Arg-544 and possibly Lys-501 is more important in forming a high affinity ATP binding conformation, and Phe-475 and possibly Lys-480 are more important in forming the low affinity ATP binding conformation.

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
The sodium pump (Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase; sodium- and potassium-activated adenosine 5'-triphosphatase; EC 3.6.1.37) has been under investigation for more than four decades. During this time, the knowledge about the structure and properties of the enzyme has increased to such an extent that specialized groups have formed within this field that focus on specific aspects of the active ion transport catalyzed by this enzyme. Taking this into account, this review, while somewhat speculative, is an attempt to summarize the information regarding the enzymology of the sodium pump with the hope of providing to interested readers from outside the field a concentrated overview and to readers from related fields a guide in their search for gathering specific information concerning the structure, function, and enzymology of this enzyme.

Abstract
In the P-domain, the 369-DKTGTLT and the 709-GDGVNDSPALKK segment are highly conserved during evolution of P-type E1-E2-ATPase pumps irrespective of their cation specificities. The focus of this article is on evaluation of the role of the amino acid residues in the P domain of the alpha subunit of Na,K-ATPase for the E1P[3Na]--> E2P[2Na] conversion, the K+-activated dephosphorylation, and the transmission of these changes to and from the cation binding sites. Mutations of residues in the TGDGVND loop show that Asp710 is essential, and Asn713 is important, for Mg2+ binding and formation of the high-energy MgE1P[3Na] intermediate. In contrast Asp710 and Asp713 do not contribute to Mg2+ binding in the E2P-ouabain complex. Transition to E2P thus involves a shift of Mg2+ coordination away from Asp710 and Asn713 and the two residues become more important for K+-activated hydrolysis of the acyl phosphate bond at Asp369. Transmission of structural changes between the P-domain and cation sites in the membrane domain is evaluated in light of the protein structure, and the information from proteolytic or metal-catalyzed cleavage and mutagenesis studies.

Abstract
The focus of this article is on progress in establishing structure-function relationships through site-directed mutagenesis and direct binding assay of Tl(+), Rb(+), K(+), Na(+), Mg(2+) or free ATP at equilibrium in Na,K-ATPase. Direct binding may identify residues coordinating cations in the E(2)[2K] or E(1)P[3Na] forms of the ping-pong reaction sequence and allow estimates of their contributions to the change of Gibbs free energy of binding. This is required to understand the molecular basis for the pronounced Na/K selectivity at the cytoplasmic and extracellular surfaces. Intramembrane Glu(327) in transmembrane segment M4, Glu(779) in M5, Asp(804) and Asp(808) in M6 are essential for tight binding of K(+) and Na(+). Asn(324) and Glu(327) in M4, Thr(774), Asn(776), and Glu(779) in 771-YTLTSNIPEITP of M5 contribute to Na(+)/K(+) selectivity. Free ATP binding identifies Arg(544) as essential for high affinity binding of ATP or ADP. In the 708-TGDGVND segment, mutations of Asp(710) or Asn(713) do not interfere with free ATP binding. Asp(710) is essential and Asn(713) is important for coordination of Mg(2+) in the E(1)P[3Na] complex, but they do not contribute to Mg(2+) binding in the E(2)P-ouabain complex. Transition to the E(2)P form involves a shift of Mg(2+) coordination away from Asp(710) and Asn(713) and the two residues become more important for hydrolysis of the acyl phosphate bond at Asp(369).

Abstract
Terminase is the enzyme that mediates lambda DNA packaging into the viral prohead. The large subunit of terminase, gpA (641 amino acid residues), has a high-affinity ATPase activity (K(m)=5 microM). To directly identify gpA's ATP-interacting amino acids, holoterminase bearing a His(6)-tag at the C terminus of gpA was UV-crosslinked with 8-N(3)-[alpha-(32)P]ATP. Tryptic peptides from the photolabeled terminase were purified by affinity chromatography and reverse-phase HPLC. Two labeled peptides of gpA were identified. Amino acid sequencing failed to show the tyrosine residue of the first peptide, E(43)SAY(46)QEGR(50), or the lysine of the second peptide, V(80)GYSK(84)MLL(87), indicating that Y(46) and K(84) were the 8-N(3)-ATP-modified amino acids. To investigate their roles in lambda DNA packaging, Y(46) was changed to E, A, and F, and K(84) was changed to E and A. Purified His(6)-tagged terminases with changes at residues 46 and 84 lacked the gpA high-affinity ATPase activity, though the cos cleavage and cohesive end separation activities were near to those of the wild-type enzyme. In virion assembly reactions using virion DNA as a packaging substrate, the mutant terminases showed severe defects. In summary, the results indicate that Y(46) and K(84) are part of the high-affinity ATPase center of gpA, and show that this ATPase activity is involved in the post-cos cleavage stages of lambda DNA packaging.

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

Abstract
This paper extends our recent report on specific iron-catalyzed oxidative cleavages of renal Na,K-ATPase and effects of E1 left arrow over right arrow E2 conformational transitions (Goldshleger, R. , and Karlish, S. J. D. (1997) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 94, 9596-9601). The experiments indicate that only peptide bonds close to a bound Fe2+ ion are cleaved, and provide evidence on proximity of the different cleavage positions in the native enzyme. A sequence HFIH near trans-membrane segment M3 appears to be involved in Fe2+ binding. Previously we hypothesized that E2 and E1 conformations are characterized by formation or relaxation of interactions within the alpha subunit at or near highly conserved sequences, TGES in the minor cytoplasmic loop and CSDK, MVTGD, and VNDSPALKK in the major cytoplasmic loop. This concept has been tested by examining iron-catalyzed cleavage in both non-phosphorylated and phosphorylated conformations and effects of phosphate, vanadate, and ouabain. The results imply that both E1 left arrow over right arrow E2 and E1P left arrow over right arrow E2P transitions are indeed associated with formation and relaxation of interactions between cytoplasmic domains, comprising the minor loop plus N-terminal tail leading into M1 and major loop, respectively. Furthermore, it appears that either non-covalently or covalently bound phosphate bind near CSDK and MVTGD, and Mg2+ ions may bind to residues within TGES and VNDSPALKK and to bound phosphate. Thus cytoplasmic domain interactions seem to occur within or near the active site. We discuss the relationship between structural changes in the cytoplasmic domain and movements of trans-membrane segments that lead to cation transport. Presumably conformation-dependent formation and relaxation of domain interactions underlie energy transduction in all P-type pumps.

Abstract
Fluorescein-5'-isothiocyanate (FITC) was used to study the high-affinity ATP-binding site of Na+/K+-ATPase. The molar ratio of specifically bound FITC per alpha-subunit of Na+/K+-ATPase was found to be 0.5 as followed from pretreatment experiments with another specific E1ATP-inhibitor Cr(H2O)4AdoPP[CH2]P. This indicated an existence of one high affinity ATP-binding site (E1ATP-binding site) in the native (alphabeta)2-diprotomer of Na+/K+-ATPase. Fluorescence dual-excitation ratio of specifically bound FITC revealed that at external pH 7.5, the pH value inside the E1ATP-binding site is 6.95 +/- 0.18. In addition, FITC fluorescence quenching by anti-fluorescein and by iodide choline indicated the limited access of water into the small pocket of the E1ATP-binding site.

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

Abstract
The high-affinity E1ATP site of Na+/K+-ATPase labeled with fluorescein 5'-isothiocyanate and its E2ATP site labeled with erythrosin 5'-isothiocyanate (ErITC), as was shown recently [Linnertz et al. (1998) J. Biol. Chem. 273, 28813-28821], reside on separate and adjacent catalytic alpha subunits. This paper provides evidence that specific labeling of the E2ATP binding site with ErITC resulted in a modification of the Cys549 residue in the tryptic fragment with the sequence Val545-Leu-Gly-Phe-Cys549-His550. Hence, Cys549 is part of or close to the low-affinity E2ATP binding site of Na+/K+-ATPase.

Abstract
ATP hydrolysis by Na+/K+-ATPase proceeds via the interaction of simultaneously existing and cooperating high (E1ATP) and low (E2ATP) substrate binding sites. It is unclear whether both ATP sites reside on the same or on different catalytic alpha-subunits. To answer this question, we looked for a fluorescent label for the E2ATP site that would be suitable for distance measurements by Förster energy transfer after affinity labeling of the E1ATP site by fluorescein 5'-isothiocyanate (FITC). Erythrosin 5'-isothiocyanate (ErITC) inactivated, in an E1ATP site-blocked enzyme (by FITC), the residual activity of the E2ATP site, namely K+-activated p-nitrophenylphosphatase in a concentration-dependent way that was ATP-protectable. The molar ratios of FITC/alpha-subunit of 0.6 and of ErITC/alpha-subunit of 0.48 indicate 2 ATP sites per (alpha beta)2 diprotomer. Measurements of Förster energy transfer between the FITC-labeled E1ATP and the ErITC-labeled or Co(NH3)4ATP-inactivated E2ATP sites gave a distance of 6.45 +/- 0.64 nm. This distance excludes 2 ATP sites per alpha-subunit since the diameter of alpha is 4-5 nm. Förster energy transfer between cardiac glycoside binding sites labeled with anthroylouabain and fluoresceinylethylenediamino ouabain gave a distance of 4.9 +/- 0.5 nm. Hence all data are consistent with the hypothesis that Na+/K+-ATPase in cellular membranes is an (alpha beta)2 diprotomer and works as a functional dimer (Thoenges, D., and Schoner, W. (1997) J. Biol. Chem. 272, 16315-16321).

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

Abstract
Various models of the transmembrane topology of the Na+,K+-ATPase predict either 8 or 10 membrane spans for the alpha-subunit and one to three membrane spans for the beta-subunit. Structure/function analysis, however, requires precise knowledge about the folding of enzymes. Therefore, the intention of this work was to establish a transmembrane topology model for the subunits of Na+,K+-ATPase. The bacterial enzyme beta-galactosidase was fused to the C termini of truncated alpha- and beta-subunits of Na+,K+-ATPase. Fusions were generated at Arg60 (LTTAR60), Glu116 (AATEE116), Ala247 (VEGTA247), Leu311 (YTWEL311), Ala444 (VAGDA444), Ala789 (IFIIA789), Met809 (LGTDM809), Asp884 (RVTWD884), Ile946 (MKNKI946), and Arg972 (GVALR972) of the sheep alpha1-subunit and at Pro236 (LGGYP236) of the dog beta-subunit. The fusion constructs were expressed in yeast cells for studies on the localization of the fused reporter enzyme. Activity measurements of the reporter enzyme revealed that only intracellular fusion sites lead to active beta-galactosidase. Indirect immunofluorescence microscopy with cells expressing alpha1/beta-galactosidase and beta/beta-galactosidase hybrid proteins demonstrated that inactive beta-galactosidase is associated with the yeast plasma membrane and can be detected from the extracellular side. The data obtained suggest that Pro236 of the beta-subunit is located on the extracellular surface, corresponding to a model with one transmembrane segment, and that the alpha-subunit of the Na+,K+-ATPase consists of 10 membrane-associated spans. They also suggest that a stretch of the alpha1-subunit between membrane spans M7 and M8 might be hidden within the membrane, surrounded by the other hydrophobic spans, in analogy to the P-loop of Na+ or K+ channels and to the "hourglass" structure of water channels.

Abstract
The lysine residue Lys492 located in the large cytoplasmic domain of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase is implicated in nucleotide binding through affinity labeling. The contribution of segment 487Phe-Ser-Arg-Asp-Arg-Lys492 to ATP binding and pump function has been investigated through the introduction of 11 site-directed amino acid mutations. ATP binding was measured through competitive inhibition of [gamma-32P]2',3'-O-(2,4, 6-trinitrophenyl)-8-azido-adenosine triphosphate photolabeling of Lys492 or its substitute. Mutations F487S and positional swap F487S/S488F produced pumps that were severely defective in ATP binding (KD > 1 mM), and mutant F487S, together with F487E, exhibited low ATPase activity and low ATP-supported calcium transport and phosphorylation and failed to show CrATP-dependent Ca2+ occlusion. Mutations F487L, R489L, and K492Y were less inhibitory to ATP binding (KD = 8-49 microM) and, together with K492L and R489D/D490R, produced correspondingly smaller changes in ATP-mediated activities. The ATP dependence of ATPase activity of these five mutants showed deviations from the wild-type profile in the low, intermediate, and high concentration ranges, suggesting defects in ATP-dependent conformational changes. Mutations S488A and D490A had no effect on ATP binding (KD = 0.4 microM) or ATP-mediated activities. None of the mutations significantly affected phosphorylation from Pi or acetyl phosphate-supported Ca2+ transport. Mutations F487L and F487S, and not those at residue 492, increased the K0.5 for Ca2+ activation of transport 2- and 8-fold, respectively. The results implicate Phe487, Arg489, and Lys492 in binding ATP in both a catalytic and a regulatory mode.

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
Na+/K(+)-ATPase will hydrolyze small acylphosphates such as p-nitrophenyl phosphate (pNPP) in addition to ATP and can derive sufficient energy from the hydrolysis of these small molecules to catalyze active ion transport. In this report, 4-azido-2-nitrophenyl phosphate (ANPP), a photoreactive analog of pNPP, was used as a probe of the substrate binding site of dog renal Na+/K(+)-ATPase. ANPP was slowly hydrolyzed by Na+/K(+)-ATPase with a Vmax of 0.19 mumol mg-1 min-1 and with an apparent Km of 1.0 mM. The Km for hydrolysis of pNPP was 1.7 mM. ANPP competitively inhibited the hydrolysis of pNPP with a Ki of 0.37 mM. Both the ATPase and pNPPase activity of the Na+/K(+)-ATPase were irreversibly inhibited after photolysis of the enzyme and ANPP with UV light, although neither activity was completely inhibited by up to 200 microM ANPP. Inhibition of activity was prevented by including 0.2 mM ATP in the reaction or by excluding Mg2+ from the photolysis buffer. Photolysis with [32P]ANPP labeled only the alpha subunit of the Na+/K(+)-ATPase, and the amount of labeling was substantially reduced by 0.2 mM ATP or in the absence of Mg2+. The stoichiometry of labeling extrapolated to a maximum of about 1.2 nmol/mg of protein at 100% inhibition of Mg(2+)-dependent activity. Limited proteolytic digestion showed labeling sites on nonoverlapping tryptic peptides derived from the alpha subunit of Na+/K(+)-ATPase, and two radiolabeled peptides were purified from an exhaustive tryptic digest of [32P]ANPP-labeled Na+/K(+)-ATPase. One peptide contained amino acids Met-379 to Lys-406, and the second contained amino acids Ala-655 to Lys-676. Amino acids corresponding to Asn-398 and Pro-668 were missing from the sequences and may represent residues derivatized by ANPP from within the substrate binding site of Na+/K(+)-ATPase.

Abstract
High-affinity ouabain binding to Na+/K(+)-ATPase (sodium- and potassium-transport adenosine triphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.37)) requires phosphorylation of the alpha subunit of the enzyme either by ATP or by inorganic phosphate. For the native enzyme (alpha/beta 1), the ATP-dependent reaction proceeds about 4-fold more slowly in the absence of Na+ than when saturating concentrations of Na+ are present. Hybrid pumps were formed from either the alpha 1 or the alpha 3 subunit isoforms of Na+/K(+)-ATPase and a chimeric beta subunit containing the transmembrane segment of the Na+/K(+)-ATPase beta 1 isoform and the external domain of the gastric H+/K(+)-ATPase beta subunit (alpha/NH beta 1 complexes). In the absence of Na+, these complexes show a rate of ATP-dependent ouabain binding from approximately 75-100% of the rate seen in the presence of Na+ depending on buffer conditions. Nonhydrolyzable nucleotides or treatment of ATP with apyrase abolishes ouabain binding, demonstrating that ouabain binding to alpha/NH beta 1 complexes requires phosphorylation of the protein. Buffer ions inhibit ouabain binding by alpha/NH beta 1 in the absence of Na+ rather than promote ouabain binding, indicating that they are not substituting for sodium ions in the phosphorylation reaction. The pH dependence of ATP-dependent ouabain binding in the presence or absence of Na+ is similar, suggesting that protons are probably not substituting for Na+. Hybrid alpha/NH beta 1 pumps also show slightly higher apparent affinities (2-3-fold) for ATP, Na+, and ouabain; however, these are not sufficient to account for the increase in ouabain binding in the absence of Na+. In contrast to phosphoenzyme formation and ouabain binding by alpha/NH beta 1 complexes in the absence of Na+, ATPase activity, measured as release of phosphate from ATP, requires Na+. These data suggest that the transition from E1P to E2P during the catalytic cycle does not occur when the sodium binding sites are not occupied. Thus, the chimeric beta subunit reduces or eliminates the role of Na+ in phosphoenzyme formation from ATP, but Na+ binding or release by the enzyme is still required for ATP hydrolysis and release of phosphate.
