31P nuclear magnetic resonance measurements of ATPase kinetics in aerobic Escherichia coli cells. 1977

T R Brown, and K Ugurbil, and R G Shulman

We have measured the in vivo unidirectional rates between the terminal phosphate of ATP and intracellular inorganic phosphate (PiIN) in aerobic suspensions of Escherichia coli cells using 31P nuclear magnetic resonance saturation transfer techniques. Typically, the measurements consisted of saturating the ATPgamma resonance and observing a 20 +/- 5% reduction in the intensity of the PiIN resonance. No saturation transfer was observed after incubation with 1 mM dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, an ATPase inhibitor. From the measured decrease in intensity of PiIN coming from saturation transfer, the apparent unimolecular rate constant of PiIN to ATP was calculated to be 0.6 +/- 0.15 sec-1.

D004926 Escherichia coli A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc. Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
D000251 Adenosine Triphosphatases A group of enzymes which catalyze the hydrolysis of ATP. The hydrolysis reaction is usually coupled with another function such as transporting Ca(2+) across a membrane. These enzymes may be dependent on Ca(2+), Mg(2+), anions, H+, or DNA.
