title: Hypothalamic factor inhibits the (Na,K)ATPase from the extracellular surface. Mechanism of inhibition.
abstract: We have characterized the effect of a stable small molecule isolated from bovine hypothalamus (Haupert, G. T., and Sancho, J. M. (1979) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. 76, 4658-4660) on mammalian (Na,K)ATPase. This hypothalamus-derived inhibitory factor, HIF, has been shown to inhibit ATPase activity of purified dog kidney enzyme reversibly with high affinity (Haupert, G. T., Carilli, C. T., and Cantley, L. C. (1984) Am. J. Physiol. 247, F919-F924). In this report it is shown that HIF inhibits the ouabain sensitive component of 86Rb+ uptake into human red blood cells. HIF also inhibited (Na,K)ATPase activity of unsealed red cell membranes but not that of sealed inside-out vesicles, indicating that HIF is impermeant to red cell membranes and inhibits the (Na,K)ATPase from the extracellular side. In unsealed human red cell membranes, concentrations of HIF which caused 70% inhibition of the (Na,K)ATPase did not inhibit ATP hydrolysis by plasma membrane (Ca2+)ATPase or (Mg2+)ATPase. However, at a similar concentration, HIF was shown to inhibit rabbit muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum (Ca2+)ATPase. HIF also inhibited p-nitrophenylphosphatase activity of unmodified or fluorescein-5'-iso-thiocyanate labeled dog kidney (Na,K)ATPase. As judged by fluorescein fluorescence of the modified enzyme, HIF stabilized the low fluorescent "E2" conformation of the enzyme similar to that stabilized by ouabain. However, unlike ouabain, HIF blocked covalent phosphorylation of dog kidney (Na,K)ATPase by inorganic phosphate. These studies show that HIF is an inhibitor of (Na,K)ATPase which acts from the extracellular side of the membrane by a mechanism similar to but not identical to that of cardiac glycosides.
