    Abstract:
    The H+,K+-ATPase of intact gastric vesicles has two Km values for ATP hydrolysis, 7 and 80 microM. Irradiation of vesicles with ultraviolet light in the presence of 1 mM ATP resulted in K+-ATPase activity that shows only the low affinity ATP binding. The irradiation stimulated or inhibited proton uptake rate compared with control vesicles at high or low ATP concentrations, respectively. The relation between proton uptake rate and K+-ATPase activity at different ATP concentrations was linear with irradiated vesicles and nonlinear with control vesicles. These results indicate that hydrolysis at the high affinity ATP binding site regulates the energy-transport coupling in negative and positive manners at high and low ATP concentrations, respectively. The complete inhibition of K+-ATPase by a specific proton pump inhibitor E3810 (rabeprazole) (2-([4-(3-methoxypropoxy)-3-methylpyridin-2-yl]methylsulf i nyl)-1H-benzimidazole sodium salt) occurred when E3810 bound to half of the alpha-subunit of H+,K+-ATPase in unirradiated vesicles at both 200 and 10 microM ATP, whereas the complete inhibition of proton uptake occurred when E3810 bound to half or a quarter of the alpha-subunit at 200 or 10 microM ATP, respectively. These results suggest that dimeric interaction between the alpha-subunits is necessary for the enzyme activity at all ATP concentrations and that dimeric or tetrameric interaction is necessary for proton transport at high or low ATP concentrations, respectively.
