Proton pump-linked Mg2+-ATPase activity in isolated rat liver lysosomes.
ATPase activity in highly purified rat liver lysosome preparations was evaluated in the presence of other membrane cellular ATPase inhibitors, and compared with lysosome ATP-driven proton translocating activity. Replacement of 5 mM Mg2+ with equimolar Ca2+ brought about a 50% inhibition in divalent cation-dependent ATPase activity, and an 80% inactivation of ATP-linked lysosomal H+ pump activity. In the presence of optimal concentrations of Ca2+ and Mg2+, ATPase activity was similar to that seen in an Mg2+ medium. Mg2+-dependent ATPase activity was greatly inhibited (from 70 to 80%) by the platinum complexes; cis-didimethylsulfoxide dichloroplatinum(II) (CDDP) at approximately 90 microM and cis-diaminedichloroplatinum(II) at twofold higher concentrations. Less inhibition, about 30 and 45%, was obtained with N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and N-ethylmaleimide, and the maximal effect occurred in the 50-100 microM and 0.1-1.5 mM ranges, respectively. The concentration dependence of inhibition by the above drugs was determined for both proton pumping and ATPase activities, and half-maximal inhibition concentration of each activity was found at nearly similar values. A micromolar concentration of carbonylcyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone (FCCP) prevented ATP from setting up a pH gradient across the lysosomal membranes, but stimulated Mg2+-ATPase activity significantly. ATPase activity in Ca2+ medium was also inhibited by CDDP and stimulated by FCCP, but both effects were two- to threefold less than those observed in Mg2+ medium. FCCP failed to stimulate ATPase activity in a CDDP-supplemented medium, thus suggesting that the same ATPase activity fraction was sensitive to both CDDP and FCCP. Mg2+-ATPase activity, like the proton pump, was anion dependent. The lowest activity was recorded in a F-medium, and increased in the order of F- less than SO2-4 less than Cl- approximately equal to Br-. The CDDP-sensitive ATPase activity observed, supported by Mg2+ and less so by Ca2+, may be related to lysosome proton pump activity.
