title: Effects of oligomycin and quercetin on the hydrolytic activities of the (Na+ +K+)-dependent ATPase.
abstract: Quercetin inhibited a dog kidney (Na+ + K+)-ATPase preparation without affecting Km for ATP or K0.5 for cation activators, attributable to the slowly-reversible nature of its inhibition. Dimethyl sulfoxide, a selector of E2 enzyme conformations, blocked this inhibition, while the K+-phosphatase activity was at least as sensitive to quercetin as the (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity, all consistent with quercetin favoring E1 conformations of the enzyme. Oligomycin, a rapidly-reversible inhibitor, decreased the Km for ATP and the K0.5 for cation activators, and its inhibition was also diminished by dimethyl sulfoxide. Although oligomycin did not inhibit the K+-phosphatase activity under standard assay conditions, a reaction presumably catalyzed by E2 conformations, its effects are nevertheless accommodated by a quantitative model for that reaction depicting oligomycin as favoring E1 conformations. The model also accounts quantitatively for effects of both dimethyl sulfoxide and oligomycin on Vmax, Km for substrate, and K0.5 for K+, as well as for stimulation of phosphatase activity by both these reagents at low K+ but high Na+ concentrations.
