ADP tethered to tyrosine-beta 345 at the catalytic site of the bovine heart F1-ATPase is converted to tethered AMP by Mg(2+)-dependent hydrolysis when the enzyme is photoinactivated with 2-N3-ADP.
Comparison of profiles of radioactive peptides resolved by HPLC from tryptic digests of the bovine heart F1-ATPase depleted of nucleotides (nd-MF1) which had been photoinactivated with 2-N3-[beta-32P]ADP, on the one hand, and 2-[8-3H]ADP, on the other, shows that the beta phosphate of ADP tethered to tyrosine-beta 345 is slowly hydrolyzed in the presence of Mg2+. When nd-MF1 was photoinactivated with 2-N3-[8-3H]ADP in the absence of Mg2+, hydrolysis of the beta phosphate from ADP tethered to tyrosine-beta 345 was not observed. Subsequent addition of Mg2+ initiated conversion of ADP tethered to tyrosine-beta 345 to tethered AMP suggesting that functional groups at the catalytic site participate in the hydrolytic reaction.
