Is there a plasma membrane-located anion-sensitive ATPase? 1977

J M van Amelsvoort, and J J de Pont, and S L Bonting

A study of the intracellular localization of HCO-3-stimulated, SCN--inhibited magnesium-dependent ATPase was performed in gill tissue of the rainbow trout (Salmo irideus), rabbit kidney and rabbit gastric mucosa. Tissue homogenates were subjected to centrifugal fractionation, and the microsomal (60 min 100 000 X g) and light mitochondrial (20 min 20 000 X g) fractions were further fractionated by density gradient centrifugation. Subfractions were characterized by marker enzyme assays and electron microscopic observation. In trout gill indications for an exclusively mitochondrial localization were found. In kidney no definite conclusions could be drawn. In rabbit gastric mucosa initially an apparently non-mitochondrial HCO-3-stimulated ATPase, in addition to a mitochondrial one, was found and its characteristics were studied. Further studies showed that this ATPase also appears to be of mitochondrial origin and probably represents mitochondrial inner membranes. Possible explanations for earlier conflicting reports concerning the localization of this enzyme in gastric mucosa and other tissues are discussed.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007668 Kidney Body organ that filters blood for the secretion of URINE and that regulates ion concentrations. Kidneys
D008274 Magnesium A metallic element that has the atomic symbol Mg, atomic number 12, and atomic weight 24.31. It is important for the activity of many enzymes, especially those involved in OXIDATIVE PHOSPHORYLATION.
D008297 Male Males
D008861 Microsomes Artifactual vesicles formed from the endoplasmic reticulum when cells are disrupted. They are isolated by differential centrifugation and are composed of three structural features: rough vesicles, smooth vesicles, and ribosomes. Numerous enzyme activities are associated with the microsomal fraction. (Glick, Glossary of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 1990; from Rieger et al., Glossary of Genetics: Classical and Molecular, 5th ed) Microsome
D008928 Mitochondria Semiautonomous, self-reproducing organelles that occur in the cytoplasm of all cells of most, but not all, eukaryotes. Each mitochondrion is surrounded by a double limiting membrane. The inner membrane is highly invaginated, and its projections are called cristae. Mitochondria are the sites of the reactions of oxidative phosphorylation, which result in the formation of ATP. They contain distinctive RIBOSOMES, transfer RNAs (RNA, TRANSFER); AMINO ACYL T RNA SYNTHETASES; and elongation and termination factors. Mitochondria depend upon genes within the nucleus of the cells in which they reside for many essential messenger RNAs (RNA, MESSENGER). Mitochondria are believed to have arisen from aerobic bacteria that established a symbiotic relationship with primitive protoeukaryotes.

D011817 Rabbits A burrowing plant-eating mammal with hind limbs that are longer than its fore limbs. It belongs to the family Leporidae of the order Lagomorpha, and in contrast to hares, possesses 22 instead of 24 pairs of chromosomes.

D005260 Female Females
D005753 Gastric Mucosa Lining of the STOMACH, consisting of an inner EPITHELIUM, a middle LAMINA PROPRIA, and an outer MUSCULARIS MUCOSAE. The surface cells produce MUCUS that protects the stomach from attack by digestive acid and enzymes. When the epithelium invaginates into the LAMINA PROPRIA at various region of the stomach (CARDIA; GASTRIC FUNDUS; and PYLORUS), different tubular gastric glands are formed. These glands consist of cells that secrete mucus, enzymes, HYDROCHLORIC ACID, or hormones.
