Interaction of sodium and potassium ions with Na+,K+-ATPase. II. General properties of ouabain-sensitive K+ binding.
General properties of ouabain-sensitive K+ binding to purified Na+,K+-ATPase [EC 3.6.1.3] were studied by a centrifugation method with 42K+. 1) The affinity for K+ was constant at pH values higher than 6.4, and decreased at pH values lower than 6.4. 2) Mg2+ competitively inhibited the K+ binding. The dissociation constant (Kd) for Mg2+ of the enzyme was estimated to be about 1 mM, and the ratio of Kd for Mg2+ to Kd for K+ was 120 : 1. The order of inhibitory efficiency of divalent cations toward the K+ binding was Ba2+ congruent to Ca2+ greater than Zn2+ congruent to Mn2+ greater than Sr2+ greater than Co2+ greater than Ni2+ greater than Mg2+. 3) The order of displacement efficiency of monovalent cations toward the K+ binding in the presence or absence of Mg2+ was Tl+ greater than Rb+ greater than or equal to (K+) greater than NH4+ greater than or equal to Cs+ greater than Na+ greater than Li+. The inhibition patterns of Na+ and Li+ were different from those of other monovalent cations, which competitively inhibited the K+ binding. 4) The K+ binding was not influenced by different anions, such as Cl-, SO4(2-), NO3-, acetate, and glycylglycine, which were used for preparing imidazole buffers. 5) Gramicidin D and valinomycin did not affect the K+ binding, though the former (10 micrograms/ml) inhibited the Na+,K+-ATPase activity by about half. Among various inhibitors of the ATPase, 0.1 mM p-chloromercuribenzoate and 0.1 mM tri-n-butyltin chloride completely inhibited the K+ binding. Oligomycin (10 micrograms/ml) and 10 mM N-ethylmaleimide had no effect on the K+ binding. In the presence of Na+, however, oligomycin decreased the K+ binding by increasing the inhibitory effect of Na+, whether Mg2+ was present or not. 6) ATP, adenylylimido diphosphate and ADP each at 0.2 mM decreased the K+ binding to about one-fourth of the original level at 10 microM K+ without MgCl2 and at 60 microM K+ with 5 mM MgCl2. On the other hand, AMP, Pi, and p-nitrophenylphosphate each at 0.2 mM had little effect on the K+ binding.
