Two forms of yeast plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase: comparison of yield and effects of inhibitors.
Classical isolation procedure for plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase of Saccharomyces cerevisiae based on fractional centrifugation yielded always a roughly two-fold greater amount of membranes when starting from glucitol-preincubated than from glucose-preincubated yeast. This difference persisted all the way to the purified plasma membranes and to the purified H(+)-ATPase. The ATP-hydrolyzing activity by plasma membranes was roughly twice greater in glucose-preincubated cells than in the D-glucitol-preincubated ones while the purified enzyme was 7 times more active after glucose than after glucitol. Effects of diethylstilbestrol, suloctidil, erythrosin B, vanadate and dicarbanonaboranuide were very similar on plasma membrane-localized and purified ATPases of both forms, suggesting that both preparations contain the two ATPase forms, the glucose-preincubated one being richer in the activated form while the glucitol-preincubated one contains less of it.
