Characterization of an adenosine triphosphatase from myeloblasts infected with the avian myeloblastosis virus.
An adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase EC 3.6.1.3) was partially purified from myeloblasts of chicken infected with the avian myeloblastosis virus and some of its molecular, catalytic and immunological properties were compared with that of the ATPase purified from the virus. Both the enzymes possessed almost same electrophoretic mobility, molecular weight, S20,w value, substrate specificity, metal-ion requirement, apparent Km value and sensitivity to inhibitors and activator. Evidence also indicated immunological identity of the two enzymes. The insensitivity of this enzyme to rutamycin or ouabain and extreme sensitivity to most of the detergents, trypsin and mercurials are the remarkable properties of this enzyme.
