Abstract
Lipid-protein interactions are normally classified as either specific or general. Specific interactions refer to lipid binding to specific binding sites within a membrane protein, thereby modulating the protein's thermal stability or kinetics. General interactions refer to indirect effects whereby lipids affect membrane proteins by modulating the membrane's physical properties, e.g., its fluidity, thickness, or dipole potential. It is not widely recognized that there is a third distinct type of lipid-protein interaction. Intrinsically disordered N- or C-termini of membrane proteins can interact directly but nonspecifically with the surrounding membrane. Many peripheral membrane proteins are held to the cytoplasmic surface of the plasma membrane via a cooperative combination of two forces: hydrophobic anchoring and electrostatic attraction. An acyl chain, e.g., myristoyl, added post-translationally to one of the protein's termini inserts itself into the lipid matrix and helps hold peripheral membrane proteins onto the membrane. Electrostatic attraction occurs between positively charged basic amino acid residues (lysine and arginine) on one of the protein's terminal tails and negatively charged phospholipid head groups, such as phosphatidylserine. Phosphorylation of either serine or tyrosine residues on the terminal tails via regulatory protein kinases allows for an electrostatic switch mechanism to control trafficking of the protein. Kinase action reduces the positive charge on the protein's tail, weakening the electrostatic attraction and releasing the protein from the membrane. A similar mechanism regulates many integral membrane proteins, but here only electrostatic interactions are involved, and the electrostatic switch modulates protein activity by altering the stabilities of different protein conformational states.

Abstract
Previous studies have shown that cytoplasmic K+ release and the associated E2 → E1 conformational change of the Na+,K+-ATPase is a major rate-determining step of the enzyme's ion pumping cycle and hence a prime site of acute regulatory intervention. From the ionic strength dependence of the enzyme's distribution between the E2 and E1 states, it has also been found that E2 is stabilized by an electrostatic attraction. Any disruption of this electrostatic attraction would, thus, have profound effects on the rate of ion pumping. The aim of this paper is to identify the location of this interaction. Using enhanced-sampling molecular dynamics simulations with a predicted N-terminal structure added to the X-ray crystal structure of the Na+,K+-ATPase, a previously postulated salt bridge between Lys32 and Glu233 (rat sequence numbering) of the enzyme's α-subunit can be excluded. The residues never approach closely enough to form a salt bridge. In contrast, strong interactions with anionic lipid head groups were seen. To investigate the possibility of a protein-lipid interaction experimentally, the surface charge density of Na+,K+-ATPase-containing membrane fragments was estimated from zeta potential measurements to be 0.019 (± 0.001) C m-2. This is in good agreement with the charge density previously determined to be responsible for stabilization of the E2 state of 0.023 (± 0.009) C m-2 and the membrane charge density estimated here from published electron-microscopic images of 0.018C m-2. The results are, therefore, consistent with an interaction of the Na+,K+-ATPase α-subunit N-terminus with negatively-charged lipid head groups of the neighbouring cytoplasmic membrane surface as the origin of the electrostatic interaction stabilising the E2 state.

Abstract
Almost seventy years after its discovery, the sodium-potassium adenosine triphosphatase (the sodium pump) located in the cell plasma membrane remains a source of novel mechanistic and physiologic findings. A noteworthy feature of this enzyme/transporter is its robust stoichiometric ratio under physiological conditions: it sequentially counter-transports three sodium ions and two potassium ions against their electrochemical potential gradients per each hydrolyzed ATP molecule. Here we summarize some present knowledge about the sodium pump and its physiological roles, and speculate whether energetic constraints may have played a role in the evolutionary selection of its characteristic stoichiometric ratio.

Start Me Up: How Can Surrounding Gangliosides Affect Sodium-Potassium ATPase Activity and Steer towards Pathological Ion Imbalance in Neurons? Biomedicines 2022; 10:biomedicines10071518.

Abstract
Gangliosides, amphiphilic glycosphingolipids, tend to associate laterally with other membrane constituents and undergo extensive interactions with membrane proteins in cis or trans configurations. Studies of human diseases resulting from mutations in the ganglioside biosynthesis pathway and research on transgenic mice with the same mutations implicate gangliosides in the pathogenesis of epilepsy. Gangliosides are reported to affect the activity of the Na+/K+-ATPase, the ubiquitously expressed plasma membrane pump responsible for the stabilization of the resting membrane potential by hyperpolarization, firing up the action potential and ion homeostasis. Impaired Na+/K+-ATPase activity has also been hypothesized to cause seizures by several mechanisms. In this review we present different epileptic phenotypes that are caused by impaired activity of Na+/K+-ATPase or changed membrane ganglioside composition. We further discuss how gangliosides may influence Na+/K+-ATPase activity by acting as lipid sorting machinery providing the optimal stage for Na+/K+-ATPase function. By establishing a distinct lipid environment, together with other membrane lipids, gangliosides possibly modulate Na+/K+-ATPase activity and aid in “starting up” and “turning off” this vital pump. Therefore, structural changes of neuronal membranes caused by altered ganglioside composition can be a contributing factor leading to aberrant Na+/K+-ATPase activity and ion imbalance priming neurons for pathological firing.

Abstract
ATP is generally defined as the "energy currency" of the cell. Its phosphoanhydride P-O bonds are often considered to be "high energy" linkages that release free energy when broken, and its hydrolysis is described as "strongly exergonic". However, breaking bonds cannot release energy and ATP hydrolysis in motor and active transport proteins is not "strongly exergonic". So, the relevance of ATP resides elsewhere. As important as the nucleotide are the proteins that undergo functionally relevant conformational changes upon both ATP binding and release of ADP and inorganic phosphate. ATP phosphorylates proteins for signaling, active transport, and substrates in condensation reactions. The ensuing dephosphorylation has different consequences in each case. In signaling and active transport the phosphate group is hydrolyzed whereas in condensation reactions the phosphoryl fragment acts as a dehydrating agent. As it will be discussed in this article, ATP does much more than simply contribute free energy to biological processes.

Abstract
Membrane protein structure and function are modulated via interactions with their lipid environment. This is particularly true for integral membrane pumps, the P-type ATPases. These ATPases play vital roles in cell physiology, where they are associated with the transport of cations and lipids, thereby generating and maintaining crucial (electro-)chemical potential gradients across the membrane. Several pumps (Na+, K+-ATPase, H+, K+-ATPase and the plasma membrane Ca2+-ATPase) which are located in the asymmetric animal plasma membrane have been found to possess polybasic (lysine-rich) domains on their cytoplasmic surfaces, which are thought to act as phosphatidylserine (PS) binding domains. In contrast, the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase, located within an intracellular organelle membrane, does not possess such a domain. Here we focus on the lysine-rich N-termini of the plasma-membrane-bound Na+, K+- and H+, K+-ATPases. Synthetic peptides corresponding to the N-termini of these proteins were found, via quartz crystal microbalance and circular dichroism measurements, to interact via an electrostatic interaction with PS-containing membranes, thereby undergoing an increase in helical or other secondary structure content. As well as influencing ion pumping activity, it is proposed that this interaction could provide a mechanism for sensing the lipid asymmetry of the plasma membrane, which changes drastically when a cell undergoes apoptosis, i.e. programmed cell death. Thus, polybasic regions of plasma membrane-bound ion pumps could potentially perform the function of a "death sensor", signalling to a cell to reduce pumping activity and save energy.

Abstract
The article considers the production of red blood cell “ghosts” and their application as a model for studying Na+, K+ - ATPase. Various variants of liposomes are used as test objects for studying ion transport, but the best model of biological membranes for studying ion transport and ATPase pumps are the «ghosts» of red blood cells. The activity of blood Na+/K+ - ATPase is determined mainly in the suspension of red blood cell “ghosts”. This is due to the need to remove the interfering compound – hemoglobin - and obtain “ghosts” that are necessary for accurate measurement of the activity of the enzyme. In this scientific work, studies were conducted to determine the concentrations of Na+ and K+ ions in the blood and red blood cells of cows and calves of various ages by atomic absorption and atomic emission spectroscopy. The values of these concentrations of Na+ and K+ ions were used to obtain red blood cell “ghosts”. “Ghosts” of red blood cells with a set concentration of sodium and potassium ions were obtained by the method of J. T. Dodge, in the modification of Zhumadilov Zh. Sh. and Gening T. P. and in our modification. Studies of the concentration of Na+ and K+ ions in the obtained «ghosts» of red blood cells showed their full compliance with the calculated values.

Abstract
To investigate the effects of chlorogenic acid-enriched extract (CGAE) from Eucommia ulmoides Oliver leaf on growth performance and quality and oxidative status of meat in pigs fed diets containing fresh or oxidized corn oil, a total of 180 barrows (initial body weight: 81.6 ± 2.08 kg) were randomly allocated into 6 diet treatments (5 replicate pens per treatment and 6 barrows per pen) in a 2 × 3 factorial design with corn oil (fresh or oxidized corn oil at 5% inclusion of diet) and CGAE (0, 500 or 1,000 mg/kg of diet containing fresh or oxidized corn oil) as main factors. The experiment lasted for 6 weeks. Dietary oxidized oil reduced average daily gain (ADG, p < .05) and average daily feed intake (ADFI, p < .01) of pigs and pH24 (p < .05), total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC, p < .01), glutathione peroxidase (GPx, p < .05) and sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ -ATPase (SERCA, p < .05) activities in meat and increased drip loss (p < .01), cooking loss (p < .05), malondialdehyde (p < .01) and carbonyl (p < .01) contents and mRNA expression of superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1, p < .05) in meat. Dietary CGAE supplementation at 1,000 mg/kg increased (p < .05) ADG and ADFI of pigs and pH24 , T-AOC, T-SOD, GPx and SERCA activities and mRNA expression of SOD1 in meat and reduced (p < .05) drip loss, cooking loss, carbonyl and malondialdehyde contents in meat. No interaction effects between oxidized corn oil and CGAE were found in pigs. Overall, dietary CGAE supplementation at 1,000 mg/kg improved growth performance and quality and oxidative status of meat in pigs subjected or not to oxidative stress induced by dietary oxidized oil.

Abstract
A fluorescence ratiometric method utilizing the probe eosin Y is presented for estimating the ATP binding site polarity of P-type ATPases in different conformational states. The method has been calibrated by measurements in a series of alcohols and tested using complexation of eosin Y with methyl-β-cyclodextrin. The results obtained with the Na+,K+-, H+,K+- and sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPases indicate that the ATP binding site, to which eosin is known to bind, is significantly more polar in the case of the Na+,K+- and H+,K+-ATPases compared to the Ca2+-ATPase. This result was found to be consistent with docking calculations of eosin with the E2 conformational state of the Na+,K+-ATPase and the Ca2+-ATPase. Fluorescence experiments showed that eosin binds significantly more strongly to the E1 conformation of the Na+,K+-ATPase than the E2 conformation, but in the case of the Ca2+-ATPase both fluorescence experiments and docking calculations showed no significant difference in binding affinity between the two conformations. This result could be due to the fact that, in contrast to the Na+,K+- and H+,K+-ATPases, the E2-E1 transition of the Ca2+-ATPase does not involve the movement of a lysine-rich N-terminal tail which may affect the overall enzyme conformation. Consistent with this hypothesis, the eosin affinity of the E1 conformation of the Na+,K+-ATPase was significantly reduced after N-terminal truncation. It is suggested that changes in conformational entropy of the N-terminal tail of the Na+, K+- and the H+,K+-ATPases during the E2-E1 transition could affect the thermodynamic stability of the E1 conformation and hence its ATP binding affinity.

Abstract
Clusters of positively-charged basic amino acid residues, particularly lysine, are known to promote the interaction of many peripheral membrane proteins with the cytoplasmic surface of the plasma membrane via electrostatic interactions. In this work, cholesterol's effects on the interaction between lysine residues and membranes have been studied. Using poly-l-lysine (PLL) and vesicles as models to mimic the interaction between lysine-rich protein domains and the plasma membrane, light scattering measurements indicated cholesterol enhanced the electrostatic interaction through indirectly affecting the negatively charged phospholipid dioleoylphosphatidylserine, DOPS. Addition of PLL to lipid vesicles containing DOPS showed an initial increase in static light scattering (SLS), attributed to binding of PLL to the vesicle surface, followed by a slower continuously declining SLS signal, which, from comparison with fluorescent dye leakage studies could be attributed to vesicle lysis. Although electrostatic interactions between PLL and the membrane were not necessary for penetration to occur, cholesterol promoted membrane disruption of negatively charged vesicles, possibly by increasing the electrostatic interactions between PLL and the membrane. In contrast, cholesterol lowered the susceptibility of uncharged vesicles (formed using dioleoylphosphatidylcholine, DOPC) to PLL penetration. This can be explained by the absence of electrostatic interactions and cholesterol's known ability to increase membrane thickness and mechanical strength. Thus, the ability of cationic peptides to penetrate membranes including cholesterol is likely to depend on the membrane's PS:PC ratio.

Abstract
Hailey-Hailey disease is an autosomal genetic disease caused by mutations in one of the two ATP2C1 alleles encoding the secretory pathway Ca2+/Mn2+-ATPase, hSPCA1. The disease almost exclusively affects epidermis, where it mainly results in acantholysis of the suprabasal layers. The etiology of the disease is complex and not well understood. We applied a yeast based complementation system to characterize fourteen disease-causing ATP2C1 missense mutations in presence or absence of wild type ATP2C1 or ATP2A2, encoding SERCA2. In our yeast model system, mutations in ATP2C1 affected Mn2+ transport more than Ca2+ transport as twelve out of fourteen mutations were unable to complement Mn2+ sensitivity while thirteen out of fourteen to some extent complemented the high Ca2+requirement. Nine out of fourteen mutations conferred a cold sensitive complementation capacity. In absence of a wild type ATP2C1 allele, twelve out of fourteen mutations induced an unfolded protein response indicating that in vivo folding of hSPCA1 is sensitive to disease causing amino acid substitutions and four of the fourteen mutations caused the hSPCA1 protein to accumulate in the vacuolar membrane. Co-expression of either wild type ATP2C1 or ATP2A2 prevented induction of the unfolded protein response and hSPCA1 mis-localization.

Abstract
Protein structure and function are modulated via interactions with their environment, representing both the surrounding aqueous media and lipid membranes that have an active role in shaping the structural topology of membrane proteins. Compared to a decade ago, there is now an abundance of crystal structural data on membrane proteins, which together with their functional studies have enhanced our understanding of the salient features of lipid-protein interactions. It is now important to recognize that membrane proteins are regulated by both (1) general lipid-protein interactions, where the general physicochemical properties of the lipid environment affect the conformational flexibility of a membrane protein, and (2) by specific lipid-protein interactions, where lipid molecules directly interact via chemical interactions with specific lipid-binding sites located on the protein. However, due to local differences in membrane composition, thickness, and lipid packing, local membrane physical properties and hence the associated lipid-protein interactions also differ due to membrane location, even for the same protein. Such a phenomenon has been shown to be true for one family of integral membrane ion pumps, the P2-type adenosine triphosphatases (ATPases). Despite being highly homologous, individual members of this family have distinct structural and functional activity and are an excellent candidate to highlight how the local membrane physical properties and specific lipid-protein interactions play a vital role in facilitating the structural rearrangements of these proteins necessary for their activity. Hence in this review, we focus on both the general and specific lipid-protein interactions and will mostly discuss the structure-function relationships of the following P2-type ATPases, Na+,K+-ATPase (NKA), gastric H+,K+-ATPase (HKA), and sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA), in concurrence with their lipid environment.

Abstract
Cholesterol's effects on Na+,K+-ATPase reconstituted in phospholipid vesicles have been extensively studied. However, previous studies have reported both cholesterol-mediated stimulation and inhibition of Na+,K+-ATPase activity. Here, using partial reaction kinetics determined via stopped-flow experiments, we studied cholesterol's effect on Na+,K+-ATPase in a near-native environment in which purified membrane fragments were depleted of cholesterol with methyl-β-cyclodextrin (mβCD). The mβCD-treated Na+,K+-ATPase had significantly reduced overall activity and exhibited decreased observed rate constants for ATP phosphorylation (ENa3+ → E2P, i.e. phosphorylation by ATP and Na+ occlusion from the cytoplasm) and K+ deocclusion with subsequent intracellular Na+ binding (E2K2+ → E1Na3+). However, cholesterol depletion did not affect the observed rate constant for K+ occlusion by phosphorylated Na+,K+-ATPase on the extracellular face and subsequent dephosphorylation (E2P → E2K2+). Thus, partial reactions involving cation binding and release at the protein's intracellular side were most dependent on cholesterol. Fluorescence measurements with the probe eosin indicated that cholesterol depletion stabilizes the unphosphorylated E2 state relative to E1, and the cholesterol depletion-induced slowing of ATP phosphorylation kinetics was consistent with partial conversion of Na+,K+-ATPase into the E2 state, requiring a slow E2 → E1 transition before the phosphorylation. Molecular dynamics simulations of Na+,K+-ATPase in membranes with 40 mol % cholesterol revealed cholesterol interaction sites that differ markedly among protein conformations. They further indicated state-dependent effects on membrane shape, with the E2 state being likely disfavored in cholesterol-rich bilayers relative to the E1P state because of a greater hydrophobic mismatch. In summary, cholesterol extraction from membranes significantly decreases Na+,K+-ATPase steady-state activity.

Abstract
The catalytic α-subunits of both the Na+,K+-ATPase and the gastric H+,K+-ATPase possess lysine-rich N-termini which project into the cytoplasm. Due to conflicting experimental results, it is currently unclear whether the N-termini play a role in ion pump function or regulation, and, if they do, by what mechanism. Comparison of the lysine frequencies of the N-termini of both proteins with those of all of their extramembrane domains showed that the N-terminal lysine frequencies are far higher than one would expect simply from exposure to the aqueous solvent. The lysine frequency was found to vary significantly between different vertebrate classes, but this is due predominantly to a change in N-terminal length. As evidenced by a comparison between fish and mammals, an evolutionary trend towards an increase of the length of the N-terminus of the H+,K+-ATPase on going from an ancestral fish to mammals could be identified. This evolutionary trend supports the hypothesis that the N-terminus is important in ion pump function or regulation. In placental mammals, one of the lysines is replaced by serine (Ser-27), which is a target for protein kinase C. In most other animal species, a lysine occupies this position and hence no protein kinase C target is present. Interaction with protein kinase C is thus not the primary role of the lysine-rich N-terminus. The disordered structure of the N-terminus may, via increased flexibility, facilitate interaction with another binding partner, e.g. the surrounding membrane, or help to stabilise particular enzyme conformations via the increased entropy it produces.

Abstract
The Na+,K+-ATPase is present in the plasma membrane of all animal cells. It plays a crucial role in maintaining the Na+ and K+ electrochemical potential gradients across the membrane, which are essential in numerous physiological processes, e.g., nerve, muscle, and kidney function. Its cellular activity must, therefore, be under tight metabolic control. Consideration of eosin fluorescence and stopped-flow kinetic data indicates that the enzyme's E2 conformation is stabilized by electrostatic interactions, most likely between the N-terminus of the protein's catalytic α-subunit and the adjacent membrane. The electrostatic interactions can be screened by increasing ionic strength, leading to a more evenly balanced equilibrium between the E1 and E2 conformations. This represents an ideal situation for effective regulation of the Na+,K+-ATPase's enzymatic activity, because protein modifications, which perturb this equilibrium in either direction, can then easily lead to activation or inhibition. The effect of ionic strength on the E1:E2 distribution and the enzyme's kinetics can be mathematically described by the Gouy-Chapman theory of the electrical double layer. Weakening of the electrostatic interactions and a shift toward E1 causes a significant increase in the rate of phosphorylation of the enzyme by ATP. Electrostatic stabilization of the Na+,K+-ATPase's E2 conformation, thus, could play an important role in regulating the enzyme's physiological catalytic turnover.

Abstract
The Na/K-ATPase (NKA), or Na pump, is a member of the P-type ATPase superfamily. In addition to pumping ions across cell membrane, it is engaged in assembly of multiple protein complexes in the plasma membrane. This assembly allows NKA to perform many non-pumping functions including signal transduction that are important for animal physiology and disease progression. This article will focus on the role of protein interaction in NKA-mediated signal transduction, and its potential utility as target for developing new therapeutics.

Abstract
Since the beginning of investigations of the Na,K-ATPase, it has been well-known that Mg2+ is an essential cofactor for activation of enzymatic ATP hydrolysis without being transported through the cell membrane. Moreover, experimental evidence has been collected through the years that shows that Mg2+ ions have a regulatory effect on ion transport by interacting with the cytoplasmic side of the ion pump. Our experiments allowed us to reveal the underlying mechanism. Mg2+ is able to bind to a site outside the membrane domain of the protein's α subunit, close to the entrance of the access channel to the ion-binding sites, thus modifying the local concentration of the ions in the electrolyte, of which Na+, K+, and H+ are of physiological interest. The decrease in the concentration of these cations can be explained by electrostatic interaction and estimated by the Debye-Hückel theory. This effect provokes the observed apparent reduction of the binding affinity of the binding sites of the Na,K-ATPase in the presence of various Mg2+ concentrations. The presence of the bound Mg2+, however, does not affect the reaction kinetics of the transport function of the ion pump. Therefore, stopped-flow experiments could be performed to gain the first insight into the Na+ binding kinetics on the cytoplasmic side by Mg2+ concentration jump experiments.

Abstract
The activity of membrane proteins such as Na,K-ATPase depends strongly on the surrounding lipid environment. Interactions can be annular, depending on the physical properties of the membrane, or specific with lipids bound in pockets between transmembrane domains. This paper describes three specific lipid-protein interactions using purified recombinant Na,K-ATPase. (a) Thermal stability of the Na,K-ATPase depends crucially on a specific interaction with 18:0/18:1 phosphatidylserine (1-stearoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-L-serine; SOPS) and cholesterol, which strongly amplifies stabilization. We show here that cholesterol associates with SOPS, FXYD1, and the α subunit between trans-membrane segments αTM8 and -10 to stabilize the protein. (b) Polyunsaturated neutral lipids stimulate Na,K-ATPase turnover by >60%. A screen of the lipid specificity showed that 18:0/20:4 and 18:0/22:6 phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) are the optimal phospholipids for this effect. (c) Saturated phosphatidylcholine and sphingomyelin, but not saturated phosphatidylserine or PE, inhibit Na,K-ATPase activity by 70-80%. This effect depends strongly on the presence of cholesterol. Analysis of the Na,K-ATPase activity and E1-E2 conformational transitions reveals the kinetic mechanisms of these effects. Both stimulatory and inhibitory lipids poise the conformational equilibrium toward E2, but their detailed mechanisms of action are different. PE accelerates the rate of E1 → E2P but does not affect E2(2K)ATP → E13NaATP, whereas sphingomyelin inhibits the rate of E2(2K)ATP → E13NaATP, with very little effect on E1 → E2P. We discuss these lipid effects in relation to recent crystal structures of Na,K-ATPase and propose that there are three separate sites for the specific lipid interactions, with potential physiological roles to regulate activity and stability of the pump.

Abstract
We investigated the mechanisms underlying the vasorelaxant and hypotensive actions of the labdane-type diterpene ent-3-acetoxy-labda-8(17),13-dien-15-oic acid (labda-15-oic acid). Vascular reactivity experiments were performed in aortic rings isolated from male Wistar rats. cAMP and cGMP were measured by enzyme immunoassay (EIA) whereas nitrate measurement was performed by chemiluminescence. Nitric oxide (NO) concentration ([NO]c) was measured in endothelial cells by flow cytometry. The cytosolic calcium concentration ([Ca2+]c) in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) was measured by confocal microscopy. Blood pressure measurements were performed in conscious rats. Labda-15-oic acid inhibited the contraction induced by phenylephrine and serotonin in either endothelium-intact or endothelium-denuded rat aortic rings. The labdane significantly reduced CaCl2-induced contraction in a Ca2+-free solution containing KCl or phenylephrine. Labda-15-oic acid (0.1–300 μmol/l) concentration-dependently relaxed endothelium-intact and endothelium-denuded aortas pre-contracted with either phenylephrine or KCl. In endothelium-intact rings, the relaxation induced by labda-15-oic acid was affected by L-NAME, 7-nitroindazole, ODQ, hemoglobin, Rp-8-Br-Pet-cGMPS and thapsigargin. Blockade of K+ channels with 4-aminopyridine, apamin, charybdotoxin and glibenclamide affected the relaxation induced by labda-15-oic acid. The labdane increased cGMP and nitrate levels but did not affect cAMP levels in endothelium-intact aortas. Labda-15-oic acid increased [NO]c in endothelial cells and decreased [Ca2+]c in VSMC. The hypotension induced by intravenous administration of labda-15-oic acid (0.3–3 mg/kg) was partially reduced by L-NAME. In conclusion, the mechanisms underlying the cardiovascular actions of the labdane involve the activation of the endothelial NO-cGMP pathway, the opening of K+ channels and the alteration on Ca2+ mobilization.

Abstract
The Na,K-ATPase is the only established receptor for cardiac glycosides like digoxin or ouabain. There are now known to be three different isoforms of its principal subunit. These isoforms can differ from one another in their intrinsic affinity for cardiac glycosides. Recent work examines the molecular structure of the binding site. The relative level of expression of the isoforms in cardiac tissue is modified in several developmental, hormonal, and pathological states, contributing to alterations in the digitalis sensitivity of the tissue.

Abstract
Mercury is an environmental poison, and the damage to living system is generally severe. The severity of mercury poisoning is consequent from the fact that it targets the thiol-containing enzymes, irreversibly oxidizing their critical thiol groups, consequently leading to an inactivation of the enzyme. The Na+/K+-ATPase is a sulfhydryl protein that is sensitive to Hg2+ assault. On the other hand, organoseleniums are a class of pharmacologically promising compounds with potent antioxidant effects. While Hg2+ oxidizes sulfhydryl groups of Na+/K+-ATPase under in vitro and in vivo conditions, the organoselenium compounds inhibit Na+/K+-ATPase in vitro but enhance its activities under in vivo conditions with concomitant increase in the level of endogenous thiols. Paradoxically, it appears that these two thiol oxidants can be used to counteract one another under in vivo conditions, and this hypothesis serves as the basis for this paper.

Abstract
The stage-VI Xenopus oocyte has a very distinct animal-vegetal polarity with structural and functional asymmetry. In this study, we show the expression and distribution pattern of Na(+),K(+) -ATPase in stage-VI oocytes, and its changes following progesterone-induced maturation. Using enzyme-specific electron microscopy phosphatase histochemistry, [(3) H]-ouabain autoradiography, and immunofluorescence cytochemistry at light microscopic level, we find that Na(+),K(+) -ATPase activity is mainly confined to the animal hemisphere. Electron microscopy histochemical results also suggest that polarized distribution of Na(+),K(+) -ATPase activity persists following progesterone-induced maturation, and it becomes gradually more polarized towards the animal pole. The time course following progesterone-induced maturation suggests that there is an initial up-regulation and then gradual down-regulation of Na(+),K(+) -ATPase activity leading to germinal vesicle breakdown (GVBD). By GVBD, the Na(+),K(+) -ATPase activity is completely down-regulated due to endocytotic removal of pump molecules from the plasma membrane into the sub-cortical region of the oocyte. This study provides the first direct evidence for a marked asymmetric localization of Na(+),K(+) -ATPase activity in any vertebrate oocyte. Here, we propose that such asymmetry in Na(+),K(+) -ATPase activity in stage-VI oocytes, and their down-regulation following progesterone-induced maturation, is likely to have a role in the active state of the germinal vesicle in stage-VI oocytes and chromosomal condensation after GVBD.

Abstract
CopA uses ATP to pump Cu(+) across cell membranes. X-ray crystallography has defined atomic structures of several related P-type ATPases. We have determined a structure of CopA at 10 Å resolution by cryo-electron microscopy of a new crystal form and used computational molecular docking to study the interactions between the N-terminal metal-binding domain (NMBD) and other elements of the molecule. We found that the shorter-chain lipids used to produce these crystals are associated with movements of the cytoplasmic domains, with a novel dimer interface and with disordering of the NMBD, thus offering evidence for the transience of its interaction with the other cytoplasmic domains. Docking identified a binding site that matched the location of the NMBD in our previous structure by cryo-electron microscopy, allowing a more detailed view of its binding configuration and further support for its role in autoinhibition.

Abstract
In our previous studies, we have demonstrated that the Src-coupled α1 Na/K-ATPase works as a receptor for cardiotonic steroids, such as ouabain, to regulate cellular protein kinase cascades. Here, we explore further the structural determinants of the interaction between the α1 Na/K-ATPase and Src and demonstrate that the Src-coupled α1 Na/K-ATPase allows the cell to decode the transmembrane transport activity of the Na/K-ATPase to turn on/off protein kinases. The α1 Na/K-ATPase undergoes E1/E2 conformational transition during an ion pumping cycle. The amount of E1 and E2 Na/K-ATPase is regulated by extracellular K(+) and intracellular Na(+). Using purified enzyme preparations we find that the E1 Na/K-ATPase can bind both the Src SH2 and kinase domains simultaneously and keep Src in an inactive state. Conversely, the E1 to E2 transition releases the kinase domain and activates the associated Src. Moreover, we demonstrate that changes in E1/E2 Na/K-ATPase by either Na(+) or K(+) are capable of regulating Src and Src effectors in live cells. Together, the data suggest that the Src-coupled α1 Na/K-ATPase may act as a Na(+)/K(+) receptor, allowing salt to regulate cellular function through Src and Src effectors.

Abstract
A total of 120 4-week-old broiler chickens were allotted to 12 pens and fed one of three diets including control, oxidized diet (5% oxidized oil), or antioxidant-added diet (500 IU vitamin E) for 2 weeks. Blood samples were collected at the end of feeding trial, and breast muscles were sampled immediately after slaughter. Breast meats were also collected 24 h after slaughter and used for meat quality measurements. Oxidative stress in blood, lipid and protein oxidation, and sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca²(+)-ATPase (SERCA) activity of breast muscle were determined. The oxidized diet increased oxidative stress in blood and increased carbonyl content in breast meat compared with the other two dietary treatments (P < 0.05). Lipid oxidation of breast muscles with the antioxidant-supplemented diet was lower than that with the oxidized and control diet groups (P < 0.05). Meat from birds fed the oxidized diet showed higher drip loss after 1 and 3 days of storage and greater 0-1 h post-mortem pH decline (P < 0.05). Significant differences in specific SERCA activity in breast muscles from birds fed control and oxidized diets (P < 0.05) were detected. This suggested that dietary oxidized oil induced oxidative stress in live birds and increased lipid and protein oxidation in breast muscle. Decrease in SERCA activity in breast muscles due to oxidative stress in live animals accelerated post-mortem glycolysis, which sped the pH drop after slaughter and increased drip loss, indicating that oxidation of diet can cause PSE-like (pale, soft, and exudative) conditions in broiler breast muscles.

Abstract
Plasma membrane ATPases are primary active transporters of cations that maintain steep concentration gradients. The ion gradients and membrane potentials derived from them form the basis for a range of essential cellular processes, in particular Na(+)-dependent and proton-dependent secondary transport systems that are responsible for uptake and extrusion of metabolites and other ions. The ion gradients are also both directly and indirectly used to control pH homeostasis and to regulate cell volume. The plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase maintains a proton gradient in plants and fungi and the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase maintains a Na(+) and K(+) gradient in animal cells. Structural information provides insight into the function of these two distinct but related P-type pumps.

Abstract
Investigations of the E2 --> E1 conformational change of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase from shark rectal gland and pig kidney via the stopped-flow technique have revealed major differences in the kinetics and mechanisms of the two enzymes. Mammalian kidney Na(+),K(+)-ATPase appears to exist in a diprotomeric (alphabeta)(2) state in the absence of ATP, with protein-protein interactions between the alpha-subunits causing an inhibition of the transition, which occurs as a two-step process: E2:E2 --> E2:E1 --> E1:E1. This is evidenced by a biphasicity in the observed kinetics. Binding of ATP to the E1 or E2 states causes the kinetics to become monophasic and accelerate, which can be explained by an ATP-induced dissociation of the diprotomer into separate alphabeta protomers and relief of the preexisting inhibition. In the case of enzyme from shark rectal gland, the observed kinetics are monophasic at all ATP concentrations, indicating a monoprotomeric enzyme; however, an acceleration of the E2 --> E1 transition by ATP still occurs, to a maximum rate constant of 182 (+/- 6) s(-1). This indicates that ATP has two separate mechanisms whereby it accelerates the E2 --> E1 transition of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase alphabeta protomers and (alphabeta)(2) diprotomers.

Abstract
The interaction of ATP with the phosphoenzyme of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase from pig kidney, rabbit kidney, and shark rectal gland was investigated using the voltage-sensitive fluorescent probe RH421. In each case, ATP concentrations >or=100 microM caused a drop in fluorescence intensity, which, because RH421 is sensitive to the formation of enzyme in the E2P state, can be attributed to ATP binding to the E2P phosphoenzyme. Simulations of the experimental behavior using kinetic models based on either a monomeric or a dimeric enzyme mechanism yielded a K(d) for ATP binding in the range 140-500 muM. Steady-state activity measurements and independent measurements of the phosphoenzyme level via a radioactive assay indicated that ATP binding to E2P causes a deceleration in its dephosphorylation when acting in the Na(+)-ATPase mode, i.e., in the absence of K(+) ions. Both the ATP-induced drop in RH421 fluorescence and the effect on the dephosphorylation reaction could be attributed to an inhibition of dissociation from the E2P(Na(+))(3) state of the one Na(+) ion necessary to allow dephosphorylation. Stopped-flow studies on the shark enzyme indicated that the ATP-induced inhibition of dephosphorylation is abolished in the presence of 1 mM KCl. A possible physiological role of allosteric binding of ATP to the phosphoenzyme could be to stabilize the E2P state and stop the enzyme running backward, which would cause dissipation of the Na(+) electrochemical potential gradient and the resynthesis of ATP from ADP. ATP binding to E2P could also fix ATP within the enzyme ready to phosphorylate it in the subsequent turnover.

Abstract
The Mg(2+) dependence of the kinetics of the phosphorylation and conformational changes of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase was investigated via the stopped-flow technique using the fluorescent label RH421. The enzyme was preequilibrated in buffer containing 130 mM NaCl to stabilize the E1(Na(+))(3) state. On mixing with ATP, a fluorescence increase was observed. Two exponential functions were necessary to fit the data. Both phases displayed an increase in their observed rate constants with increasing Mg(2+) to saturating values of 195 (+/- 6) s(-1) and 54 (+/- 8) s(-1) for the fast and slow phases, respectively. The fast phase was attributed to enzyme conversion into the E2MgP state. The slow phase was attributed to relaxation of the dephosphorylation/rephosphorylation (by ATP) equilibrium and the buildup of some enzyme in the E2Mg state. Taking into account competition from free ATP, the dissociation constant (K(d)) of Mg(2+) interaction with the E1ATP(Na(+))(3) state was estimated as 0.069 (+/- 0.010) mM. This is virtually identical to the estimated value of the K(d) of Mg(2+)-ATP interaction in solution. Within the enzyme-ATP-Mg(2+) complex, the actual K(d) for Mg(2+) binding can be attributed primarily to complexation by ATP itself, with no apparent contribution from coordination by residues of the enzyme environment in the E1 conformation.

Abstract
Reported values of the dissociation constant, K(d), of ATP with the E1 conformation of the Na(+),K(+)-ATPase fall in two distinct ranges depending on how it is measured. Equilibrium binding studies yield values of 0.1-0.6 microM, whereas presteady-state kinetic studies yield values of 3-14 microM. It is unacceptable that K(d) varies with the experimental method of its determination. Using simulations of the expected equilibrium behavior for different binding models based on thermodynamic data obtained from isothermal titration calorimetry we show that this apparent discrepancy can be explained in part by the presence in presteady-state kinetic studies of excess Mg(2+) ions, which compete with the enzyme for the available ATP. Another important contributing factor is an inaccurate assumption in the majority of presteady-state kinetic studies of a rapid relaxation of the ATP binding reaction on the time scale of the subsequent phosphorylation. However, these two factors alone are insufficient to explain the previously observed presteady-state kinetic behavior. In addition one must assume that there are two E1-ATP binding equilibria. Because crystal structures of P-type ATPases indicate only a single bound ATP per alpha-subunit, the only explanation consistent with both crystal structural and kinetic data is that the enzyme exists as an (alphabeta)(2) diprotomer, with protein-protein interactions between adjacent alpha-subunits producing two ATP affinities. We propose that in equilibrium measurements the measured K(d) is due to binding of ATP to one alpha-subunit, whereas in presteady-state kinetic studies, the measured apparent K(d) is due to the binding of ATP to both alpha-subunits within the diprotomer.

Abstract
Ion translocation by the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase depends on large movements of the A-domain, but the driving forces have yet to be defined. The A-domain is connected to the ion-binding membranous part of the protein through linker regions. We have determined the functional consequences of changing the length of the linker between the A-domain and transmembrane helix M3 ("A-M3 linker") by insertion and deletion mutagenesis at two sites. It was feasible to insert as many as 41 residues (polyglycine and glycine-proline loops) in the flexible region of the linker without loss of the ability to react with Ca(2+) and ATP and to form the phosphorylated Ca(2)E1P intermediate, but the rate of the energy-transducing conformational transition to E2P was reduced by >80%. Insertion of a smaller number of residues gave effects gradually increasing with the length of the insertion. Deletion of two residues at the same site, but not replacement with glycine, gave a similar reduction as the longest insertion. Insertion of one or three residues in another part of the A-M3 linker that forms an alpha-helix ("A3 helix") in E2/E2P conformations had even more profound effects on the ability of the enzyme to form E2P. These results demonstrate the importance of the length of the A-M3 linker and of the position and integrity of the A3 helix for stabilization of E2P and suggest that, during the normal enzyme cycle, strain of the A-M3 linker could contribute to destabilize the Ca(2)E1P state and thereby to drive the transition to E2P.

Abstract
Understanding of how P-type ATPases work would greatly benefit from the elucidation of more high-resolution structures. The nucleotide-binding domain of Mg-ATPase was selected for structural studies because Mg-ATPase is closely related to eukaryotic Ca-ATPase and Na,K-ATPase while the nucleotide-binding domain itself has diverged substantially. Two fragments of Mg-ATPase were cloned in Escherichia coli and purified. The entire cytoplasmic loop (residues 367-673), consisting of the phosphorylation and nucleotide-binding domains, expressed well and was purified in large quantities. The smaller 19.5 kDa nucleotide-binding domain (residues 383-545) expressed less well but formed crystals that diffracted to a resolution of 1.53 A which will be used for molecular replacement.

Mechanism of allosteric effects of ATP on the kinetics of P-type ATPases. EUROPEAN BIOPHYSICS JOURNAL: EBJ 2009; 39:3-17.

Abstract
The roles of allosteric effects of ATP and protein oligomerisation in the mechanisms of P-type ATPases belong to the most controversial and least well understood topics in the field. Recent crystal structural and kinetic data, however, now allow certain hypotheses to be definitely excluded and consistent hypotheses to be developed. The aim of this review is to critically discuss recent results and, in the light of them, to present a set of conclusions which could form the basis of future research. The major conclusions are: (1) at saturating ATP concentrations P-type ATPases function as monomeric enzymes, (2) the catalytic units of P-type ATPases only possess a single ATP binding site, (3) at non-saturating ATP concentrations P-type ATPases exist as diprotomeric (or higher oligomeric) complexes, (4) protein-protein interactions within a diprotomeric complex enhances the enzymes' ATP binding affinity, (5) ATP binding to both protomers within a diprotomeric complex causes it to dissociate into two separate monomers. The physiological role of protein-protein interactions within a diprotomer may be to enhance ATP binding affinity so as to scavenge ATP and maximize the ion pumping rate under hypoxic or anoxic conditions. For the first time a structural basis for the well-known ATP allosteric acceleration of the E2 --> E1 transition is presented. This is considered to be due to a minimization of steric hindrance between neighbouring protomers because of the ability of ATP to induce a compact conformation of the enzymes' cytoplasmic domains.

Abstract
P-type ATPases play an important role in Cu homeostasis, which provides sufficient Cu for metalloenzyme biosynthesis but prevents oxidative damage of free Cu to the cell. The P(IB) group of P-type ATPases includes ATP-dependent pumps of Cu and other transition metal ions, and it is distinguished from other family members by the presence of N-terminal metal-binding domains (MBD). We have determined structures of two constructs of a Cu pump from Archaeoglobus fulgidus (CopA) by cryoelectron microscopy of tubular crystals, which reveal the overall architecture and domain organization of the molecule. By comparing these structures, we localized its N-terminal MBD within the cytoplasmic domains that use ATP hydrolysis to drive the transport cycle. We have built a pseudoatomic model by fitting existing crystallographic structures into the cryoelectron microscopy maps for CopA, which suggest a Cu-dependent regulatory role for the MBD.

Abstract
The cell-surface expression and function of multisubunit plasma membrane proteins are regulated via interactions between catalytic subunits and auxiliary subunits. Subunit assembly in the endoplasmic reticulum is required for the cell-surface expression of the enzyme, but little is known about subunit interactions once it reaches the plasma membrane. Here we performed highly quantitative analyses of the catalytic (alpha1) and auxiliary (beta1 and beta3) subunits of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase in the HeLa cell plasma membrane using isoform-specific antibodies and a cell-surface protein labeling procedure. Our results indicate that although the beta-subunit is required for the cell-surface expression of the alpha-subunit, the plasma membrane contains more alpha-subunits than beta-subunits. Pulse-labeling and chasing of the cell-surface proteins revealed that degradation of the beta-subunits was much faster than that of the alpha1-subunit. Ubiquitylation, as well as endocytosis, was involved in the fast degradation of the beta1-subunit. Double knockdown of the beta1- and beta3-subunits by RNAi resulted in the disappearance of these beta-subunits but not the alpha1-subunit in the plasma membrane. All these results indicate that the alpha- and beta-subunits of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase are assembled in the endoplasmic reticulum, but are disassembled in the plasma membrane and undergo different degradation processes.

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
We earlier observed that treating rat proximal tubules with concentrations of angiotensin II (ANG II) that directly stimulate Na-K-ATPase activity changed how Na-K-ATPase subsequently eluted from an ouabain-affinity column. In this study we tested whether ANG II increases the rate of elution in response to ligands that trigger the decay of E(2)-P, which implies a change in functional properties of Na-K-ATPase, or by decreasing the amount subsequently eluted with SDS, which suggests a change in how Na-K-ATPase interacts with other proteins. We utilized a new digoxin-affinity column and novel lines of opossum kidney (OK) cells that coexpress the rat AT(1a) receptor and either the wild-type rat alpha(1)-isoform of Na-K-ATPase or a truncation mutant missing the first 32 amino acids of its NH(2) terminus. We characterized how rat kidney microsomes bind to and elute from the digoxin-affinity column and demonstrated that they are heterogeneous in the rate at which they release digoxin in response to ligands that trigger the decay of E(2)-P. Incubating OK cells with ANG II stimulated the ensuing elution of wild-type rat alpha(1)-subunit by increasing the kinetic response to ligands that cause a decay of E(2)-P without affecting the amount later eluted with SDS. In contrast, ANG II had no effect on the kinetic response of the truncation mutant but decreased the amount eluted with SDS. These data suggest that ANG II regulates both the kinetic properties of Na-K-ATPase and its interaction with other proteins by a mechanism(s) involving its NH(2) terminus.

Abstract
The cytoplasmic N terminus of the Na,K-ATPase is a highly charged and flexible structure that comprises three predicted helical regions including H1 spanning residues 27 to 33 and H2 spanning residues 42 to 50. Previous deletion mutagenesis experiments showed that deletion of residues up to and including most of H2 shifts the E(1)/E(2) conformational equilibrium toward E(1). The present study describes a clustered charge-to-alanine mutagenesis approach designed to delineate specific sites within the N terminus that modulate the steady-state E(1) <--> E(2) and E(1)P <--> E(2)P poise. Criteria to assess shifts in poise include (i) sensitivity to inhibition by inorganic orthovanadate to assess overall poise; (ii) K(+)-sensitivity of Na-ATPase measured at micromolar ATP to assess changes in the E(2)(K) + ATP --> E(1) x ATP + K(+) rate; (iii) K'(ATP) for low-affinity ATP binding at the latter step; (iv) overall catalytic turnover, and (v) the E(1)P --> E(2)P transition. The results of alanine replacements in H1 (31KKE) suggest that this site stabilizes E(2)P and to a lesser extent E(2). In H2, residues within 47HRK have a role in stabilizing E(2) but not E(2)P as revealed with double mutants 31KKE --> AAA/47H --> A and 31KKE --> AAA/47HRK --> AAA. Taken together, these observations suggest that sites 31KKE in H1 and 47HRK in H2 have distinct roles in modulating the enzyme's conformational transitions during the catalytic cycle of the enzyme.

Abstract
The kinetics of the E2 --> E1 conformational change of unphosphorylated Na+,K+-ATPase was investigated via the stopped-flow technique using the fluorescent label RH421 (pH 7.4, 24 degrees C). The enzyme was pre-equilibrated in a solution containing 25 mM histidine and 0.1 mM EDTA to stabilize the E2 conformation. When rabbit enzyme was mixed with 130 mM NaCl alone or with 130 mM NaCl and varying concentrations of Na2ATP simultaneously, a fluorescence decrease was observed. In the absence of ATP, the fluorescence decrease followed a biexponential time course, but at ATP concentrations after mixing of >or=50 microM, the fluorescence transient could be adequately fitted by a single exponential. On the basis of the agreement between theoretical simulations and experimental traces, we propose that in the absence of bound ATP the conformational transition occurs as a two step reversible process within a protein dimer, E2:E2 --> E2:E1 --> E1:E1. In the presence of 130 mM NaCl, the sum of the forward and backward rate constants for the E2:E2 --> E2:E1 and E2:E1 --> E1:E1 transitions were found to be 10.4 (+/-1.0) and 0.49 (+/-0.02) s-1, respectively. At saturating concentrations of ATP, however, the transition occurs in a single reversible step with the sum of its forward and backward rate constants equal to 35.2 (+/-0.3) s-1. It was found that ATP acting at a high affinity site (Kd approximately 0.25 microM), stimulated the reverse reaction, E1ATP --> E2ATP, in addition to its known allosteric low affinity (Kd approximately 71 microM) stimulation of the forward reaction, E2ATP --> E1ATP.

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
RH421 is a widely used voltage-sensitive fluorescent membrane probe. Its exposure to continuous illumination with 577 nm light from an Hg lamp leads, however, to an increase in its steady-state fluorescence level when bound to lipid membranes. The increase occurs on the second time scale at typical light intensities and was found to be due to a single-photon excited-state isomerization. Modifications to the dye structure are, therefore, necessary to increase photochemical stability and allow wider application of such dyes in kinetic studies of ion-transporting membrane proteins. The related probe ANNINE 5, which has a rigid polycyclic structure, shows no observable photochemical reaction when bound to DMPC vesicles on irradiation with 436 nm light. The voltage sensitivity of ANNINE 5 was tested with the use of Na+,K+-ATPase membrane fragments. As long as ANNINE 5 is excited on the far red edge of its visible absorption band, it shows a similar sensitivity to RH421 in detecting charge-translocating reactions triggered by ATP phosphorylation. Unfortunately the wavelengths necessary for ANNINE 5 excitation are in a region where the Hg lamps routinely used in stopped-flow apparatus have no significant lines available for excitation.

Abstract
ATP has high- and low-affinity effects on the sodium pump and other P-type ATPases. We have approached this question by using 2',3'-O-(trinitrophenyl)-8-azidoadenosine 5'-diphosphate (TNP-8N(3)-ADP) to photoinactivate and label Na,K-ATPase, both in its native state and after covalent FITC block of its high-affinity ATP site. With the native enzyme, the photoinactivation rate constant increases hyperbolically with a K(D(TNP-8N)3(-)(ADP)) of 0.11 microM; TNP-ATP and ATP protect the site with high affinities. The inactivation does not require Na(+), but K(+) inhibits with a K(K)' of 12 microM; Na(+) reverses this effect, with a K(Na) of 0.17 mM. This pattern suggests that Na(+) and K(+) are binding at sites in their "intracellular" conformation. It was known that FITC did not abolish the reverse phosphorylation by P(i), or the K(+)-phosphatase activity, and that TNP-8N(3)-ADP could subsequently photoinactivate the latter with >100-fold lower affinity; in that case, the cation sites acted as if facing outward [Ward, D. G., and Cavieres, J. D. (1998) J. Biol. Chem. 273, 14277-14284, 33759-33765]. Native and FITC-modified enzymes have now been photolabeled with TNP-8N(3)-[alpha-(32)P]ADP and alpha-chain soluble tryptic peptides separated by reverse-phase HPLC. With native Na,K-ATPase, three labeled peaks lead to the unique sequence alpha-(470)Ile-Val-Glu-Ile-Pro-Phe-Asn-Ser-Thr-Asn-X-Tyr-Gln-Leu-Ser-Ile-His-Lys(487), the dropped residue being alphaLys480. With the FITC enzyme, instead, two independent labeling and purification cycles return the sequence alpha-(721)Ala-Asp-Ile-Gly-Val-Ala-Met-Gly-Ile-Ala-Gly-Ser-Asp-Val-Ser-Lys(736). These results suggest that Na,K-ATPase also has a low-affinity nucleotide binding region, one that is under distinctive allosteric control by Na(+) and K(+). Moreover, the cation effects seem compatible with a slow, passive Na(+)/K(+) carrier behavior of the FITC-modified sodium pump.

Abstract
Although cardiac glycosides have been used as drugs for more than 2 centuries and their primary target, the sodium pump (Na,K-ATPase), has already been known for 4 decades, their exact binding site is still elusive. In our efforts to define the molecular basis of digitalis glycosides binding we started from the fact that a closely related enzyme, the gastric H,K-ATPase, does not bind glycosides like ouabain. Previously, we showed that a chimera of these two enzymes, in which only the M3-M4 and M5-M6 hairpins were of Na,K-ATPase, bound ouabain with high affinity (Koenderink, J. B., Hermsen, H. P. H., Swarts, H. G. P., Willems, P. H. G. M., and De Pont, J. J. H. H. M. (2000) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 97, 11209-11214). We also demonstrated that only three amino acids (Phe(783), Thr(797), and Asp(804)) present in the M5-M6 hairpin of Na,K-ATPase were sufficient to confer high affinity ouabain binding to a chimera which contained in addition the M3-M4 hairpin of Na,K-ATPase (Qiu, L. Y., Koenderink, J. B., Swarts, H. G., Willems, P. H., and De Pont, J. J. H. H. M. (2003) J. Biol. Chem. 278, 47240-47244). To further pinpoint the ouabain-binding site here we used a chimera-based loss-of-function strategy and identified four amino acids (Glu(312), Val(314), Ile(315), Gly(319)), all present in M4, as being important for ouabain binding. In a final gain-of-function study we showed that a gastric H,K-ATPase that contained Glu(312), Val(314), Ile(315), Gly(319), Phe(783), Thr(797), and Asp(804) of Na,K-ATPase bound ouabain with the same affinity as the native enzyme. Based on the E(2)P crystal structure of Ca(2+)-ATPase we constructed a homology model for the ouabain-binding site of Na,K-ATPase involving all seven amino acids as well as several earlier postulated amino acids.
