Pre-steady-state charge translocation in NaK-ATPase from eel electric organ
Time-resolved measurements of charge translocation and phosphorylation kinetics during the pre-steady state of the NaK-ATPase reaction cycle are presented. NaK-ATPase-containing microsomes prepared from the electric organ of Electrophorus electricus were adsorbed to planar lipid bilayers for investigation of charge translocation, while rapid acid quenching was used to study the concomitant enzy...
متن کاملMolecular structures of acetylcholinesterase from electric organ tissue of the electric eel.
Three purified molecular forms of acetylcholinesterase (EC 3.1.1.7) with sedimentation coefficients of 18 S, 14 S, and 11 S were studied by analytical ultracentrifugation and electron microscopy. The three species have molecular weights of (1.1 +/- 0.1) x 10(6), (7.5 +/- 1.5) x 10(5), and (3.35 +/- 0.25) x 10(5), respectively. Electron micrographs reveal that the 18S and 14S forms are asymmetri...
متن کاملPhosphoenzymes formed from Mg.ATP and Ca.ATP during pre-steady state kinetics of sarcoplasmic reticulum ATPase.
We have investigated here the pre-steady state kinetics of sarcoplasmic reticulum ATPase incubated under conditions where significant amounts of Mg.ATP and Ca.ATP coexist, both of them being substrates for the ATPase. We confirmed that these two substrates are independently hydrolyzed by the ATPase, which thus apparently catalyzes Pi production by two simultaneous and separate pathways. Externa...
متن کاملEffects of UV-A radiation on lens epithelial NaK-ATPase in organ culture.
PURPOSE To investigate the mechanisms involved in the damage caused by UV-A irradiation at 365 nm on the eye lens. METHODS Bovine lenses obtained from animals 1 to 5 years of age were placed in specially designed organ culture chambers for preincubation. Twenty-four hours later, the lenses were irradiated by 33 J/cm2 UV-A at 365 nm. During irradiation, the lenses were oriented in the culture ...
متن کاملThe Fine Structure of the Electric Organ of the Electric Eel and Torpedo Ray
Electric organs or tissues have been described in seven families of fish (Dahlgren, 1), but all of them have several features in common. The tissues occur as a series of more or less flattened plates or electroplaques, each of which consists of a nucleated cytoplasmic syncytial plate having a relatively large surface area. The plates are supplied with nerve endings on one surface only. On one o...
