Properties of the bovine striatal synaptic vesicles ATPase.
Synaptic vesicles prepared from bovine corpus striatum exhibit an ATPase activity that is insensitive to ouabain and specific inhibitors of mitochondrial ATPase, but that is stimulated by proton ionophores and inhibited by sulfhydryl reagents. Low concentrations of orthovanadate, DCCD and tributyl tin are also ineffective as inhibitors of the vesicle-associated activity. The properties of the synaptic vesicle enzyme suggest that this ATPase may be similar to that of clathrin-coated vesicles, and to one of the activities described in preparations of adrenal chromaffin granule membranes.
