Comp Biochem Physiol A Mol Integr Physiol 2024; 296:111696. [PMID: 39004301 DOI: 10.1016/j.cbpa.2024.111696] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2024] [Revised: 07/08/2024] [Accepted: 07/08/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024]
Abstract
Decapod Crustacea exhibit a marine origin, but many taxa have occupied environments ranging from brackish to fresh water and terrestrial habitats, overcoming their inherent osmotic challenges. Osmotic and ionic regulation is achieved by the gill epithelia, driven by two active ATP-hydrolyzing ion transporters, the basal (Na+, K+)-ATPase and the apical V(H+)-ATPase. The kinetic characteristic of gill (Na+, K+)-ATPase and the mRNA expression of its α subunit have been widely studied in various decapod species under different salinity challenges. However, the evolution of the primary structure has not been explored, especially considering the functional modifications associated with decapod phylogeny. Here, we proposed a model for the topology of the decapod α subunit, identifying the sites and motifs involved in its function and regulation, as well as the patterns of its evolution assuming a decapod phylogeny. We also examined both the amino acid substitutions and their functional implications within the context of biochemical and physiological adaptation. The α-subunit of decapod crustaceans shows greater conservation (∼94% identity) compared to the β-subunit (∼40%). While the binding sites for ATP and modulators are conserved in the decapod enzyme, the residues involved in the α-β interaction are only partially conserved. In the phylogenetic context of the complete sequence of (Na+, K+)-ATPase α-subunit, most substitutions appear to be characteristic of the entire group, with specific changes for different subgroups, especially among brachyuran crabs. Interestingly, there was no consistent separation of α-subunit partial sequences related to habitat, suggesting that the convergent evolution for freshwater or terrestrial modes of life is not correlated with similar changes in the enzyme's primary amino acid sequence.

Abstract
The Na(+)/K(+) ATPase is an almost ubiquitous integral membrane protein within the animal kingdom. It is also the selective target for cardiotonic derivatives, widely prescribed inhibitors for patients with heart failure. Functional studies revealed that ouabain-sensitive residues distributed widely throughout the primary sequence of the protein. Recently, structural work has brought some consensus to the functional observations. Here, we use a spectroscopic approach to estimate distances between a fluorescent ouabain and a lanthanide binding tag (LBT), which was introduced at five different positions in the Na(+)/K(+) ATPase sequence. These five normally functional LBT-Na(+)/K(+) ATPase constructs were expressed in the cell membrane of Xenopus laevis oocytes, operating under physiological internal and external ion conditions. The spectroscopic data suggest two mutually exclusive distances between the LBT and the fluorescent ouabain. From the estimated distances and using homology models of the LBT-Na(+)/K(+) ATPase constructs, approximate ouabain positions could be determined. Our results suggest that ouabain binds at two sites along the ion permeation pathway of the Na(+)/K(+) ATPase. The external site (low apparent affinity) occupies the same region as previous structural findings. The high apparent affinity site is, however, slightly deeper toward the intracellular end of the protein. Interestingly, in both cases the lactone ring faces outward. We propose a sequential ouabain binding mechanism that is consistent with all functional and structural studies.

Abstract
Interplay between the host and influenza virus has a pivotal role for the outcome of infection. The matrix proteins M2/BM2 from influenza (A and B) viruses are small type III integral membrane proteins with a single transmembrane domain, a short amino-terminal ectodomain and a long carboxy-terminal cytoplasmic domain. They function as proton channels, mainly forming a membrane-spanning pore through the transmembrane domain tetramer, and are essential for virus assembly and release of the viral genetic materials in the endosomal fusion process. However, little is known about the host factors which interact with M2/BM2 proteins and the functions of the long cytoplasmic domain are currently unknown. Starting with yeast two-hybrid screening and applying a series of experiments we identified that the β1 subunit of the host Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase β1 subunit (ATP1B1) interacts with the cytoplasmic domain of both the M2 and BM2 proteins. A stable ATP1B1 knockdown MDCK cell line was established and we showed that the ATP1B1 knockdown suppressed influenza virus A/WSN/33 replication, implying that the interaction is crucial for influenza virus replication in the host cell. We propose that influenza virus M2/BM2 cytoplasmic domain has an important role in the virus-host interplay and facilitates virus replication.

Abstract
The alpha and beta subunits of the gastric H+/K(+)-ATPase (proton pump) have been identified as the major molecular targets of parietal cell autoantibodies associated with pernicious anaemia and with murine experimental autoimmune gastritis (EAG) induced by neonatal thymectomy. Recent studies with EAG suggest that the mechanisms of peripheral tolerance and autoimmunity to extrathymic autoantigens are mediated by subsets of "regulator" and "effector" CD4+ T cells, respectively. The persistence of "effector" CD4+ autoreactive T cells in the periphery may be a direct consequence of the delayed developmental expression of the target autoantigen. We hypothesize that cytokines produced by the "regulator" T cells prevent the clonal expansion of the "effector" autoreactive T cells, and that neonatal thymectomy induces organ-specific autoimmunity in genetically susceptible individuals by the reduction of the "regulator" T cell population.

Abstract
Evidence shows that Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase from kidney, brain and liver is inhibited by nitric oxide (NO) and peroxynitrite anion (ONO(2) (-)), but the mechanism is unknown. The aim of the present work was to study the inhibitory effect of NO and ONO(2) (-) on erythrocyte Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase. Erythrocyte membranes were isolated from male Wistar rats by hypotonic washing. The membranes (free from haemoglobin) were incubated for Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase activity measurement at various concentrations of ATP in the presence or absence of 400 microM SNAP (an NO donor) or 100 microM SIN-1 (an ONO(2)(-) donor). At these concentrations, SNAP and SIN-1 released about the same amount (100 microM) of NO or ONO(2)(-), respectively, as monitored by measuring NO(2)(-) + NO(3)(-). Both SNAP and SIN-1 decreased V(max) by ca. 75% but they did not decrease the apparent affinity of the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase for the substrate (a decrease of K(m) was even observed after SNAP treatment). The pattern of this inhibition is compatible either with oxidation of SH groups directly involved in ATP binding but in a way that is not surmountable by increasing the substrate concentration ("non-competitive") or with oxidation of SH groups located outside the active site of the enzyme but important for the activity of the enzyme.

Abstract
The thermal unfolding and domain structure of Na+/K+-ATPase from pig kidney were studied by high-sensitivity differential scanning calorimetry (HS-DSC). The excess heat capacity function of Na+/K+-ATPase displays the unfolding of three cooperative domains with midpoint transition temperatures (Td) of 320.6, 327.5, 331.5 K, respectively. The domain with Td = 327.5 K was identified as corresponding to the beta subunit, while two other domains belong to the alpha subunit. The thermal unfolding of the low-temperature domain leads to large changes in the amplitude of the short-circuit current, but has no effect on the ATP hydrolysing activity. Furthermore, dithiothreitol or 2-mercaptoethanol treatment causes destruction of this domain, accompanied by significant disruption of the ion transporting function and a 25% loss of ATPase activity. The observed total unfolding enthalpy of the protein is rather low (approximately 12 J.g-1), suggesting that thermal denaturation of Na+/K+-ATPase does not lead to complete unfolding of the entire molecule. Presumably, transmembrane segments retain most of their secondary structure upon thermal denaturation. The binding of physiological ligands results in a pronounced increase in the conformational stability of both enzyme subunits.

Abstract
Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase (sodium/potassium pump) is a P-type ion-motive ATPase found in the plasma membranes of animal cels. In vertebrates, the functions of this enzyme in nerves, heart and kidney are well characterized and characteristics a defined by different isoforms. In contrast, despite different tissue distributions, insects possess a single isoform of the alpha-subunit. A comparison of insect and vertebrate Na(+)/K(+)-ATPases reveals that although the mode of action and structure are very highly conserved, the specific roles of the enzyme in most tissues varies. However, the enzyme is essential for the function of nerve cells, and in this respect Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase appears to be fundamental in metazoan evolution.

Abstract
Subunit interactions of the alpha1- and beta1-subunits of the chicken Na,K-ATPase were explored with the yeast two-hybrid system. Gal4-fusion proteins containing domains of the alpha1- and beta1-subunits were designed for examining both intersubunit and intrasubunit protein-protein interactions. Regions of the alpha- and beta-subunits known to be involved in alpha-beta-subunit assembly were positive in two-hybrid assay, supporting the validity of the assays. A library of beta-subunit ectodomains with C-terminal truncations was screened to find the maximal truncation retaining an interaction with the alpha-subunit extracellular H7H8 loop (where H7 refers to the seventh membrane span, and so on). The maximal truncation removed all the cysteines involved in disulfide bridges, leaving only 63 amino acids of the beta-subunit ectodomain. Scanning alanine mutagenesis led to identification of an evolutionarily conserved sequence of four amino acids (SYGQ) in the extracellular H7H8 loop of the alpha-subunit that is crucial to alpha-beta-intersubunit interactions. Oligomerization studies with single domains failed to detect self-association of either of the two large cytosolic loops (H2H3 and H4H5) within the alpha-subunit. However, evidence was found for an interaction between these two cytoplasmic loops.

Abstract
In the present work, we studied the effects of phenoxyl radicals, generated by tyrosinase-catalyzed oxidation of a phenolic antitumor drug, Etoposide (VP-16), on a purified dog kidney Na+/K(+)-ATPase by characterizing interactions of VP-16 phenoxyl radicals with the enzyme's SH-groups by ESR and correlating the loss of the enzymatic activity with the oxidation of its SH-groups, and oxidation of VP-16. VP-16/tyrosinase caused inhibition of Na+/K(+)-ATPase which was dependent on the incubation time and concentration of tyrosinase. The inhibition of Na+/K(+)-ATPase was accompanied by a decrease of DTNB (5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid)-titratable SH-groups. In the presence of Na+/K(+)-ATPase, a typical ESR signal of the VP-16 phenoxyl radical could be observed only following a lag period the duration of which was proportional to the concentration of the Na+/K(+)-ATPase added. Our HPLC measurements demonstrated that Na+/K(+)-ATPase protected VP-16 against tyrosinase-catalyzed oxidation. Combined these results suggest that redox-cycling of VP-16/VP-16 phenoxyl radical by SH-groups of Na+/K(+)-ATPase occurred. Ascorbate which is known to reduce the VP-16 phenoxyl radicals, protected the enzyme against inactivation, prevented oxidation of the enzyme's SH-groups. Reduction of VP-16 phenoxyl radicals by ascorbate was directly observed by the semidehydroascorbyl radical signal in the ESR spectra. VP-16 phenoxyl radical-induced oxidation of sulfhydryls and inhibition of the Na+/K(+)-ATPase may be responsible for at least some of its clinical side effects (e.g., cardiotoxicity) which can be prevented by ascorbate.

Abstract
The topological organization of the Na,K-ATPase alpha subunit is controversial. Detection of extracellular proteolytic cleavage sites would help define the topology, and so attempts were made to find conditions and proteases that would permit digestion of Na,K-ATPase in sealed right-side-out vesicles from renal medulla. The beta subunit is predominantly extracellular and could mask the surface of the alpha subunit. Most of the tested proteases cleaved beta, and some digested it extensively. However, without further disruption of structure, there was still no digestion of the alpha subunit. Reduction (at 50 degrees C) of disulfide bonds that might stabilize the beta subunit fragments, or heating alone at 55 degrees C, permitted tryptic digestion of alpha at a site close to the C terminus, while simultaneously increasing digestion of beta. A 90-kDa N-terminal fragment of alpha was recovered, but the C-terminal fragment was further digested. Heating and reduction resulted in the extracellular exposure of a protein kinase A phosphorylation site, Ser-938, and the C terminus, both of which have been proposed to be located on the intracellular surface. At the same time, access to a distant protein kinase C phosphorylation site was not increased. The data suggest that the harsh treatment simultaneously resulted in alteration of the beta subunit and the extrusion of a segment of alpha that normally spans the membrane, without causing complete denaturation or opening the sealed vesicles. Preincubation with Rb+ was protective, consistent with prior evidence that it stabilizes the protein segments in the C-terminal third of alpha. We conclude that this portion of the alpha subunit contains a transmembrane structure with unique lability to heating.

Abstract
In contrast to the catalytic (alpha) subunit of the Na+/K(+)-ATPase holoenzyme, the glycoprotein (beta) subunit has proven to be a poor antigen for monoclonal antibody (Mab) production. However, in this work six Mabs directed against the beta-subunit of the lamb kidney holoenzyme have been isolated. These Mabs all recognize the holoenzyme, but their 'in solution' binding affinities for deglycosylated enzyme or isolated beta are generally at least 10-fold higher. Species specificity mapping, antibody patterns of binding to beta-fragments and competition binding studies indicated that there were only three distinct epitopes, with two antibodies binding in the NH2-terminal half (epitopes I and II) and 4 Mabs binding at the same or overlapping site (III) in the -COOH terminal half of beta. DNA sequence analysis of isolated collections of bacteriophage M13 that contain a 15 amino-acid 'epitope library' insert in the pIII protein, which enables them to bind to the antibodies, revealed the residues KYRDS (amino acids 111-115) and LETYP (amino acids 197-201) to be the deduced sequences for the epitopes of Mabs M19-P7-E5 (II) and M17-P5-F11 (III), respectively. The epitope I site was not, however, identified. Further studies showed that antibody binding to these three determinant sites had no affect on the Na+/K(+)-ATPase and K(+)-stimulated p-nitrophenylphosphatase (pNPPase) activities of either holoenzyme or deglycosylated enzyme, nor any affect on the cation- (Na+, K+ or Mg2+) and ouabain-induced conformational changes monitored with FITC-labeled deglycosylated enzyme. Interestingly, anti-beta Mab access to the three epitopes was increased following beta-mercaptoethanol inactivation of the holoenzyme, but this thiol reduction abolished the binding of two conformation-sensitive anti-alpha Mabs to the enzyme. These results are consistent with the previous suggestion of Kirley ((1990) J. Biol. Chem. 265, 4227-4232) that the beta-disulfide linkages not only maintain beta-structure but they are critical for maintaining alpha-conformation and holoenzyme activity.

Abstract
The beta-subunit of Torpedo californica (Na,K)ATPase contains seven cysteine residues; one (Cys46) is in the single transmembrane segment and the other six (Cys127, Cys150, Cys160, Cys176, Cys215 and Cys278) are in the extracellular domain and form three highly conserved disulfide bonds. A beta-subunit mutant with replacement of Cys46 by Ser could assemble with the alpha-subunit, and the resulting alpha beta-complex was catalytically active. Mutants in which either the N-terminal side or both Cys residues of the Cys127-Cys150 bond were replaced by Ser could also tightly assemble with the alpha-subunit, but the resulting alpha beta-complex was catalytically inactive. On the other hand, disruption of either the Cys160-Cys176 or Cys215-Cys278 bond by substituting the N-terminal side only or both Cys residues with Ser led to a beta-subunit that could not assemble with the alpha-subunit. We conclude that the structure of the beta-subunit around the Cys160-Cys176 and Cys215-Cys278 loops is indispensable for assembly with the alpha-subunit, whereas the Cys127-Cys150 loop is not essential for assembly but is required for enzyme activity.

Abstract
A highly conserved sequence motif (4 tyrosines and 1 proline: YYPYY) of the Na(+)-K(+)-adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase) beta 1-subunit ectodomain has been mutagenized to study its possible role in alpha/beta-assembly and sodium pump function. Single as well as double tyrosine mutants (tyrosine to phenylalanine: Y to F) of Xenopus laevis beta 1-subunits are able to associate with alpha 1-subunits and form functional Na-K pumps at the plasma membrane that are indistinguishable from wild-type alpha 1, beta 1-Na-K pumps (as assessed by measurements of ouabain binding, 86Rb flux, Na-K pump current, and activation by external potassium). In contrast, a single proline mutation (proline to glycine: P244G) reduced by > 90% the proper assembly and function of Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, despite a normal rate of synthesis and core glycosylation. Our data indicate that proline-244 plays a critical role in the proper folding of the beta-subunit and its ability to associate efficiently with the alpha 1-subunit in the endoplasmic reticulum.

Abstract
H(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity of rabbit isolated gastric microsomes was irreversibly inactivated by reducing agents, such as 2-mercaptoethanol and dithiothreitol. Similar to what has been observed for Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase, high concentrations of reagents, at moderately elevated temperatures, were required to inactivate H(+)-K(+)-ATPase, suggesting relative inaccessibility of the responsible disulfide bonds. Resistance against inactivation was conferred by monovalent cation activators of K(+)-stimulated ATPase and p-nitro-phenylphosphatase. The effectiveness of K+ congeners in protecting the enzyme was similar in sequence (Tl+ greater than K+ greater than Rb+) and concentration to their respective affinities for stimulating enzymatic activity, suggesting that the K(+)-bound form of the enzyme is more resistant to reduction than the free enzyme. Furthermore, Na+ antagonized the protective effect of K+. Labeling studies using fluorescein-maleimide indicated that 60-70% of the cysteine residues in the beta-subunit are in the oxidized form. Coupled with primary sequence data, this suggests that three disulfide bonds are present in the native beta-subunit. In contrast, less than 10% of the cysteine residues in the alpha-subunit are in the oxidized form. Kinetic studies showed that the 2-mercaptoethanol-induced loss of H(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity was correlated with a reduction of disulfide groups in the beta-subunit, while there was no significant change in the alpha-subunit. We conclude that reduction of disulfide bonds irreversibly inhibits H(+)-K(+)-ATPase activity, binding of K+ to the enzyme confers a resistance to disulfide bond reduction, and the responsible disulfide bonds are present in the beta-subunit.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
A rat genomic library was screened using a gastric H,K-ATPase beta-subunit cDNA probe, and two clones were identified. Restriction endonuclease mapping and Southern hybridization analyses indicated that each of these clones contains the entire H,K-ATPase beta-subunit gene. The nucleotide sequence was determined for the 8.75-kb transcription unit and 2.2 kb of the 5'-flanking region. The gene consists of seven exons and shows a high degree of similarity to the Na,K-ATPase beta 1-subunit gene. Primer extension and S1 nuclease protection analyses identified a major transcription initiation site 23 bases upstream of the translation start site and several minor transcription initiation sites located further upstream. The 5'-flanking region of the gene has two potential TATA sequences, each located 25-30 bases upstream of a transcription initiation site, and a number of potential promoter and regulatory elements. In addition, the 5'-flanking region contains nucleotide sequences that may regulate transcription through the formation of unusual DNA structures. These include a sequence that may form a triple helix and an adjacent sequence with the potential to form Z-DNA.

Abstract
The minimal functional enzyme unit of Na,K-ATPase consists of an alpha-beta complex. The alpha-subunit bears all functional domains of the enzyme and so far a regulatory role for the beta-subunit in the catalytic cycle has not been established. On the other hand, increasing experimental evidence suggests that the beta-subunit is an indispensable element for the structural and functional maturation of the enzyme as well as its intracellular transport to the plasma membrane. This brief review summarizes the experimental data supporting the hypothesis that assembly of the beta-subunit is needed for the alpha-subunit to acquire the correct, stable configuration necessary for the acquisition of functional properties and its exit from the ER.

Abstract
The catalytic subunit of the H+/K(+)-transporting ATPase (EC 3.6.1.3) has 62% identity to the alpha, or catalytic subunit, of the Na+/K(+)-transporting ATPase (EC 3.6.1.37); however, a homologous beta subunit was unknown until recently. Removal of the carbohydrate from purified hog H+/K(+)ATPase vesicles reveals a 35-kDa peptide that, when fragmented with protease V8, gives sequences homologous to both beta 1 and beta 2 subunits of the Na+/K(+)-ATPase. cDNA clones for a beta subunit of the gastric H+/K(+)-ATPase were isolated from a rabbit stomach cDNA library by using degenerate 17-mer oligonucleotide probes made to the protease V8-treated peptides. An open reading frame (54-926) encodes a predicted 291-amino acid peptide with Mr = 33,320, which exhibits 31% and 44% homologies to the Na+/K+)-ATPase beta 1 and Na+/K(+)-ATPase beta 2 proteins, respectively. A Kyte-Doolittle hydropathy plot predicts a single N-terminal transmembrane domain with a small hydrophobic region near the C terminus. The presumed extracytosolic domain contains seven potential N-linked glycosylation sites and six out of nine cysteines. Northern (RNA) blot analysis of stomach RNA with the rabbit H+/K(+)-ATPase beta probe identifies a single mRNA of 1.3-1.5 kilobases, similar in concentration to the alpha subunit mRNA. The presence of a defined gastric H+/K(+)-ATPase beta subunit extends the homology between H+/K(+)-ATPase and the Na+/K(+)-ATPase subclass of phosphoenzyme transport ATPases and distinguishes them from the monomeric Ca2+ and proton pump subclasses.

Abstract
Both the chaperonin- and MgATP-dependent reconstitution of unfolded ribulosebisphosphate carboxylase (Rubisco) and the uncoupled ATPase activity of chaperonin 60 (groEL) require ionic potassium. The spontaneous, chaperonin-independent reconstitution of Rubisco, observed at 15 but not at 25 degrees C, requires no K+ and is actually inhibited by chaperonin 60, with which the unfolded or partly folded Rubisco forms a stable binary complex. The chaperonin-dependent reconstitution of Rubisco involves the formation of a complex between chaperonin 60 and chaperonin 10 (groES). Formation of this complex almost completely inhibits the uncoupled ATPase activity of chaperonin 60. Furthermore, although the formation of the chaperonin 60-chaperonin 10 complex requires the presence of MgATP, hydrolysis of ATP may not be required, since complex formation occurs in the absence of K+. The interaction of chaperonin 60 with unfolded or partly folded Rubisco does not require MgATP, K+, or chaperonin 10. However, discharge of the complex of chaperonin 60-Rubisco, which leads to the formation of active Rubisco dimers, requires chaperonin 10 and a coupled, K(+)-dependent hydrolysis of ATP. We propose that a role of chaperonin 10 is to couple the K(+)-dependent hydrolysis of ATP to the release of the folded monomers of the target protein from chaperonin 60.
