Abstract
The H+, K+-ATPase (HKA) uses ATP to pump protons into the gastric lumen against a million-fold proton concentration gradient while counter-transporting K+ from the lumen. The mechanism of release of a proton into a highly acidic stomach environment, and the subsequent binding of a K+ ion necessitates a network of protonable residues and dynamically changing protonation states in the cation binding pocket dominated by five acidic amino acid residues E343, E795, E820, D824, and D942. We perform molecular dynamics simulations of spontaneous K+ binding to all possible protonation combinations of the acidic amino acids and carry out free energy calculations to determine the optimal protonation state of the luminal-open E2P state of the pump which is ready to bind luminal K+. A dynamic pKa correlation analysis reveals the likelihood of proton transfer events within the cation binding pocket. In agreement with in-vitro measurements, we find that E795 is likely to be protonated, and that E820 is at the center of the proton transfer network in the luminal-open E2P state. The acidic residues D942 and D824 are likely to remain protonated, and the proton redistribution occurs predominantly amongst the glutamate residues exposed to the lumen. The analysis also shows that a lower number of K+ ions bind at lower pH, modeled by a higher number of protons in the cation binding pocket, in agreement with the 'transport stoichiometry variation' hypothesis.

Abstract
Gastric H(+),K(+)-ATPase is responsible for gastric acid secretion. ATP-driven H(+) uptake into the stomach is efficiently accomplished by the exchange of an equal amount of K(+), resulting in a luminal pH close to 1. Because of the limited free energy available for ATP hydrolysis, the stoichiometry of transported cations is thought to vary from 2H(+)/2K(+) to 1H(+)/1K(+) per hydrolysis of one ATP molecule as the luminal pH decreases, although direct evidence for this hypothesis has remained elusive. Here, we show, using the phosphate analog aluminum fluoride (AlF) and a K(+) congener (Rb(+)), the 8-Å resolution structure of H(+),K(+)-ATPase in the transition state of dephosphorylation, (Rb(+))E2~AlF, which is distinct from the preceding Rb(+)-free E2P state. A strong density located in the transmembrane cation-binding site of (Rb(+))E2~AlF highly likely represents a single bound Rb(+) ion, which is clearly different from the Rb(+)-free E2AlF or K(+)-bound (K(+))E2~AlF structures. Measurement of radioactive (86)Rb(+) binding suggests that the binding stoichiometry varies depending on the pH, and approximately half of the amount of Rb(+) is bound under acidic crystallization conditions compared with at a neutral pH. These data represent structural and biochemical evidence for the 1H(+)/1K(+)/1ATP transport mode of H(+),K(+)-ATPase, which is a prerequisite for generation of the 10(6)-fold proton gradient in terms of thermodynamics. Together with the released E2P-stabilizing interaction between the β subunit's N terminus and the P domain observed in the (Rb(+))E2~AlF structure, we propose a refined vectorial transport model of H(+),K(+)-ATPase, which must prevail against the highly acidic state of the gastric lumen.

Abstract
A lysine residue within the highly conserved center of the fifth transmembrane segment in P(IIC)-type ATPase α-subunits is uniquely found in H,K-ATPases instead of a serine in all Na,K-ATPase isoforms. Because previous studies suggested a prominent role of this residue in determining the electrogenicity of non-gastric H,K-ATPase and in pK(a) modulation of the proton-translocating residues in the gastric H,K-ATPases as well, we investigated its functional significance for ion transport by expressing several Lys-791 variants of the gastric H,K-ATPase in Xenopus oocytes. Although the mutant proteins were all detected at the cell surface, none of the investigated mutants displayed any measurable K(+)-induced stationary currents. In Rb(+) uptake measurements, replacement of Lys-791 by Arg, Ala, Ser, and Glu substantially impaired transport activity and reduced the sensitivity toward the E(2)-specific inhibitor SCH28080. Furthermore, voltage clamp fluorometry using a reporter site in the TM5/TM6 loop for labeling with tetra-methylrhodamine-6-maleimide revealed markedly changed fluorescence signals. All four investigated mutants exhibited a strong shift toward the E(1)P state, in agreement with their reduced SCH28080 sensitivity, and an about 5-10-fold decreased forward rate constant of the E(1)P ↔ E(2)P conformational transition, thus explaining the E(1)P shift and the reduced Rb(+) transport activity. When Glu-820 in TM6 adjacent to Lys-791 was replaced by non-charged or positively charged amino acids, severe effects on fluorescence signals and Rb(+) transport were also observed, whereas substitution by aspartate was less disturbing. These results suggest that formation of an E(2)P-stabilizing interhelical salt bridge is essential to prevent futile proton exchange cycles of H(+) pumping P-type ATPases.

Abstract
Gastric H(+),K(+)-ATPase is shown to transport 2 mol of H(+)/mol of ATP hydrolysis in isolated hog gastric vesicles. We studied whether the H(+) transport mechanism is due to charge transfer and/or transfer of hydronium ion (H(3)O(+)). From transport of [(18)O]H(2)O, 1.8 mol of water molecule/mol of ATP hydrolysis was found to be transported. We performed a molecular dynamics simulation of the three-dimensional structure model of the H(+),K(+)-ATPase alpha-subunit at E(1) conformation. It predicts the presence of a charge transfer pathway from hydronium ion in cytosolic medium to Glu-345 in cation binding site 2 (H(3)O(+)-Lys-164 -Gln-161-Glu-345). No charge transport pathway was formed in mutant Q161L, E345L, and E345D. Alternative pathways (H(3)O(+)-Gln-161-Glu-345) in mutant K164L and (H(3)O(+)-Arg-105-Gln-161-Gln-345) in mutant E345Q were formed. The H(+),K(+)-ATPase activity in these mutants reflected the presence and absence of charge transfer pathways. We also found charge transfer from sites 2 to 1 via a water wire and a charge transfer pathway (H(3)O(+)-Asn-794 -Glu-797). These results suggest that protons are charge-transferred from the cytosolic side to H(2)O in sites 2 and 1, the H(2)O comes from cytosolic medium, and H(3)O(+) in the sites are transported into lumen during the conformational transition from E(1)PtoE(2)P.

Abstract
New models of the gastric H,K ATPase in the E1K and E2P states are presented as the first structures of a K+ counter-transport P2-type ATPase exhibiting ion entry and exit paths. Homology modeling was first used to generate a starting conformation from the srCa ATPase E2P form (PDB code 1wpg) that contains bound MgADP. Energy minimization of the model showed a conserved adenosine site but nonconserved polyphosphate contacts compared to the srCa ATPase. Molecular dynamics was then employed to expand the luminal entry sufficiently to allow access of the rigid K+ competitive naphthyridine inhibitor, Byk99, to its binding site within the membrane domain. The new E2P model had increased separation between transmembrane segments M3 through M8, and addition of water in this space showed not only an inhibitor entry path to the luminal vestibule but also a channel leading to the ion binding site. Addition of K+ to the hydrated channel with molecular dynamics modeling of ion movement identified a pathway for K+ from the lumen to the ion binding site to give E2K. A K+ exit path to the cytoplasm operating during the normal catalytic cycle is also proposed on the basis of an E1K homology model derived from the E12Ca2+ form of the srCa ATPase (PDB code 1su4). Autodock analyses of the new E2P model now correctly discriminate between high- and low-affinity K+ competitive inhibitors. Finally, the expanded luminal vestibule of the E2P model explains high-affinity ouabain binding in a mutant of the H,K ATPase [Qiu et al. (2005) J. Biol. Chem. 280, 32349-32355].

Abstract
It is proposed that the hydronium ion, H3O+, binds to the E1 conformation of the alpha-subunit of gastric proton pump. The H3O+ binding cavities are characterized parametrically based on valence, sequence, geometry, and size considerations from comparative modeling. The cavities have scope for accommodating monovalent cations of different ionic radii. The H3O+ transport is proposed to be aided by arenes which are arranged regularly along the pump starting from N-domain through the transmembrane region. Step-by-step structural changes accompanying H3O+ occlusion are studied in detail. The observations corroborate well with earlier experimental studies.

Abstract
The gastric H,K-ATPase catalyzes electroneutral exchange of H(+) for K(+) as a function of enzyme phosphorylation and dephosphorylation during transition between E(1)/E(1)-P (ion site in) and E(2)-P/E(2) (ion site out) conformations. Here we present homology modeling of the H,K-ATPase in the E(2)-P conformation as a means of predicting the interaction of the enzyme with two known classes of specific inhibitors. All known proton pump inhibitors, PPIs, form a disulfide bond with cysteine 813 that is accessible from the luminal surface. This allows allocation of the binding site to a luminal vestibule adjacent to Cys813 enclosed by part of TM4 and the loop between TM5 and TM6. K(+) competitive imidazo-1,2alpha-pyridines also bind to the luminal surface of the E(2)-P conformation, and their binding excludes PPI reaction. This overlap of the binding sites of the two classes of inhibitors combined with the results of site-directed mutagenesis and cysteine cross-linking allowed preliminary assignment of a docking mode for these reversible compounds in a position close to Glu795 that accounts for the detailed structure/activity relationships known for these compounds. The new E(2)-P model is able to assign a possible mechanism for acid secretion by this P(2)-type ATPase. Several ion binding side chains identified in the sr Ca-ATPase by crystallography are conserved in the Na,K- and H,K-ATPases. Poised in the middle of these, the H,K-ATPase substitutes lysine in place of a serine implicated in K(+) binding in the Na,K-ATPase. Molecular models for hydronium binding to E(1) versus E(2)-P predict outward displacement of the hydronium bound between Asp824, Glu820, and Glu795 by the R-NH(3)(+) of Lys791 during the conformational transition from E(1)P and E(2)P. The site for luminal K(+) binding at low pH is proposed to be between carbonyl oxygens in the nonhelical part of the fourth membrane span and carboxyl oxygens of Glu795 and Glu820. This site of K(+) binding is predicted to destabilize hydrogen bonds between these carboxylates and the -NH(3)(+) group of Lys791, allowing the Lys791 side chain to return to its E(1) position.

Abstract
Gastric H+/K+-ATPase is a P-type ATPase responsible for acid secretion in the stomach. This protein adopts mainly two conformations called E1 and E2. Even though two high-resolution structures for a P-ATPase in these conformations are available, little structural information is available about the transition between these two conformations. In the present study, we used two experimental approaches to investigate the structural differences that occur when gastric ATPase is placed in the presence of various ligands and ligand combinations. We used attenuated total reflection-Fourier-transform IR experiments under a flowing buffer to modify the environment of the protein inside the measurement cell. The high accuracy of the results allowed us to demonstrate that the E1-E2 transition induces a net change in the secondary structure that concerns 10-15 amino acid residues of a total of 1324 in the proteins. The E2.K+ structure is characterized by a decreased beta-sheet content and an increase in the disordered structure content with respect to the E1 form of the enzyme. Modifications in the absorption of the side chain of amino acids are also suggested. By using hydrogen/deuterium-exchange kinetics, we show that tertiary-structure modifications occurred in the presence of the same ligands, but these changes involved several hundreds of residues. The present study suggests that conformational changes in the catalytic cycle imply secondary-structure rearrangements of small hinge regions that have an impact on large domain re-organizations.

Abstract
Asn792 present in M5 of gastric H,K-ATPase is highly conserved within the P-type ATPase family. A direct role in K+ binding was postulated for Na,K-ATPase but was not found in a recent model for gastric H,K-ATPase (Koenderink, J. B., Swarts, H. G. P., Willems, P. H. G. M., Krieger, E., and De Pont, J. J. H. H. M. (2004) J. Biol. Chem. 279, 16417-16424). Therefore, its role in K+ binding and E1/E2 conformational equilibrium in gastric H,K-ATPase was studied by site-directed mutagenesis and expression in Sf9 cells. N792Q and N792A, but not N792D and N792E, had a markedly reduced K+ affinity in both the ATPase and dephosphorylation reactions. In addition, N792A shifted the conformational equilibrium to the E1 form. In double mutants, the effect of N792A on K+ sensitivity was overruled by either E820Q (K(+)-independent activity) or E343D (no dephosphorylation activity). Models were made for the mutants based on the E2 structure of Ca(2+)-ATPase. In the wild-type model the acid amide group of Asn792 has hydrogen bridges to Lys791, Ala339, and Val341. Comparison of the effects of the various mutants suggests that the hydrogen bridge between the carbonyl oxygen of Asn792 and the amino group of Lys791 is essential for the K+ sensitivity and the E2 preference of wild-type enzyme. Moreover, there was a high positive correlation (r = 0.98) between the in silico calculated energy difference of the E2 form (mutants versus wild type) and the experimentally measured IC50 values for vanadate, which reflects the direction of the E2<-->E1 conformational equilibrium. These data strongly support the validity of the model in which Asn792 participates in the hydrogen bond network around the K(+)-binding pocket.

Abstract
Comparative modeling studies on conserved regions of the gastric H(+)K(+)-ATPase reveal that the E1-E2 conformational transition induces significant tertiary structural changes while conserving the secondary structure. The residues 516-530 of the cytoplasmic domain and TM10 within the transmembrane (TM) regions undergo maximum tertiary structural changes. The luminal regions exhibit comparatively lesser tertiary structural deviations. Residues 249-304 show maximum secondary structural deviation in the conformational transition. The Cys-815 and Cys-323 residues involved in inhibitor binding are found to have smaller buried side chain areas in the E1 conformation compared to E2. Retention of activity correlates well with the buried side chain area when selected amino acid residues in TM6 are mutated using modeling techniques with bulkier amino acid residues. Conformational specificity for ion binding is corroborated with the fraction of side chains exposed to polar atoms of the residues E345, D826, V340, A341, V343, and E822.

Abstract
The Na,K-ATPase is a major ion-motive ATPase of the P-type family responsible for many aspects of cellular homeostasis. To determine the structure of the pathway for cations across the transmembrane portion of the Na,K-ATPase, we mutated 24 residues of the fourth transmembrane segment into cysteine and studied their function and accessibility by exposure to the sulfhydryl reagent 2-aminoethyl-methanethiosulfonate. Accessibility was also examined after treatment with palytoxin, which transforms the Na,K-pump into a cation channel. Of the 24 tested cysteine mutants, seven had no or a much reduced transport function. In particular cysteine mutants of the highly conserved "PEG" motif had a strongly reduced activity. However, most of the non-functional mutants could still be transformed by palytoxin as well as all of the functional mutants. Accessibility, determined as a 2-aminoethyl-methanethiosulfonate-induced reduction of the transport activity or as inhibition of the membrane conductance after palytoxin treatment, was observed for the following positions: Phe(323), Ile(322), Gly(326), Ala(330), Pro(333), Glu(334), and Gly(335). In accordance with a structural model of the Na,K-ATPase obtained by homology modeling with the two published structures of sarcoplasmic and endoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase (Protein Data Bank codes 1EUL and 1IWO), the results suggest the presence of a cation pathway along the side of the fourth transmembrane segment that faces the space between transmembrane segments 5 and 6. The phenylalanine residue in position 323 has a critical position at the outer mouth of the cation pathway. The residues thought to form the cation binding site II ((333)PEGL) are also part of the accessible wall of the cation pathway opened by palytoxin through the Na,K-pump.

Abstract
Homology modeling of gastric H,K-ATPase based on the E2 model of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (Toyoshima, C., and Nomura, H. (2002) Nature 392, 835-839) revealed the presence of a single high-affinity binding site for K+ and an E2 form-specific salt bridge between Glu820 (M6) and Lys791 (M5). In the E820Q mutant this salt bridge is no longer possible, and the head group of Lys791, together with a water molecule, fills the position of the K+ ion and apparently mimics the K+-filled cation binding pocket. This gives an explanation for the K+-independent ATPase activity and dephosphorylation step of the E820Q mutant (Swarts, H. G. P., Hermsen, H. P. H., Koenderink, J. B., Schuurmans Stekhoven, F. M. A. H., and De Pont, J. J. H. H. M. (1998) EMBO J. 17, 3029-3035) and, indirectly, for its E1 preference. The model is strongly supported by a series of reported mutagenesis studies on charged and polar amino acid residues in the membrane domain. To further test this model, Lys791 was mutated alone and in combination with other crucial residues. In the K791A mutant, the K+ affinity was markedly reduced without altering the E2 preference of the enzyme. The K791A mutation prevented, in contrast to the K791R mutation, the spontaneous dephosphorylation of the E820Q mutant as well as its conformational equilibrium change toward E1. This indicates that the salt bridge is essential for high-affinity K+ binding and the E2 preference of H,K-ATPase. Moreover, its breakage (E820Q) can generate a K+-insensitive activity and an E1 preference. In addition, the study gives a molecular explanation for the electroneutrality of H,K-ATPases.

Abstract
The transport activity of the Na,K-ATPase (a 3 Na+ for 2 K+ ion exchange) is electrogenic, whereas the closely related gastric and non-gastric H,K-ATPases perform electroneutral cation exchange. We have studied the role of a highly conserved serine residue in the fifth transmembrane segment of the Na,K-ATPase, which is replaced with a lysine in all known H,K-ATPases. Ouabain-sensitive 86Rb uptake and K+-activated currents were measured in Xenopus oocytes expressing the Bufo bladder H,K-ATPase or the Bufo Na,K-ATPase in which these residues, Lys800 and Ser782, respectively, were mutated. Mutants K800A and K800E of the H,K-ATPase showed K+-stimulated and ouabain-sensitive electrogenic transport. In contrast, when the positive charge was conserved (K800R), no K+-induced outward current could be measured, even though rubidium transport activity was present. Conversely, the S782R mutant of the Na,K-ATPase had non-electrogenic transport activity, whereas the S782A mutant was electrogenic. The K800S mutant of the H,K-ATPase had a more complex behavior, with electrogenic transport only in the absence of extracellular Na+. Thus, a single positively charged residue in the fifth transmembrane segment of the alpha-subunit can determine the electrogenicity and therefore the stoichiometry of cation transport by these ATPases.

Abstract
Gastric H,K-ATPase has, in the absence of ATP and added ions, a preference for the E(2) conformation. Mutations in the cation-binding pocket often result in a preference for the E(1)-conformation. This can be paralleled by the occurrence of K(+)-independent ATPase activity. These two phenomena could be separated by combined mutagenesis of several residues in and around the cation-binding pocket. Models of the three-dimensional structure of H,K-ATPase visualize the relationship between the E(1)/E(2) preference and the structure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are covalent inhibitors of the gastric H+,K+-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) forming disulfide bonds. Recovery of acid secretion after PPI inhibition may be due to de novo synthesis of pump protein and/or disulfide reduction and reactivation of inhibited pump. The half-time of recovery of acid secretion in rats following omeprazole treatment is approximately 15 hours, whereas pump protein half-life is 54 hours. In humans, the half-life of the inhibitory effect on acid secretion is approximately 28 hours for omeprazole and approximately 46 hours for pantoprazole. Whereas all PPIs bind to cysteine 813, pantoprazole additionally binds to cysteine 822, deeper in the membrane domain of TM6. Their different durations of action may reflect different rates of pump reactivation due to differing accessibility of the disulfides to glutathione. METHODS Rats were stimulated and treated with 30 mg/kg of each PPI. Gastric ATPase was prepared and reversal of inhibition of the H+,K+-ATPase was measured as the time-dependent restoration of activity by incubation with dithiothreitol or glutathione. RESULTS One hundred percent reactivation of ATPase following inhibition in vivo by omeprazole or its enantiomers was seen with dithiothreitol and 89% with glutathione. Similar data were found for lansoprazole or rabeprazole. No reactivation by either reducing agent was seen following inhibition by pantoprazole. CONCLUSIONS Recovery of acid secretion following inhibition by all PPIs, other than pantoprazole, may depend on both protein turnover and reversal of the inhibitory disulfide bond. In contrast, recovery of acid secretion after pantoprazole may depend entirely on new protein synthesis.

Abstract
The accessibility of the residues of the sixth transmembrane segment (TM) of the Bufo marinus Na,K-ATPase alpha subunit was explored by cysteine scanning mutagenesis. Methanethiosulfonate reagents reached only the two most extracellular positions (T803, D804) in the native conformation of the Na,K-pump. Palytoxin induced a conductance in all mutants, including D811C, T814C and D815C which showed no active electrogenic transport. After palytoxin treatment, four additional positions (V805, L808, D811 and M816) became accessible to the sulfhydryl reagent. We conclude that one side of the sixth TM helix forms a wall of the palytoxin-induced channel pore and, probably, of the cation pathway from the extracellular side to one of their binding sites.
