Abstract:
:ATP transport to synaptic vesicles from rat brain has been studied using the fluorescent substrate analogue 1,N6-ethenoadenosine 5'-triphosphate (epsilon-ATP). The increase in intravesicular concentration was time dependent for the first 30 min, epsilon-ATP being the most abundant nucleotide. The complexity of the saturation curve indicates the existence of kinetic and allosteric cooperativity in the nucleotide transport, which exhibits various affinity states with K0.5 values of 0.39 +/- 0.06 and 3.8 +/- 0.1 mM with epsilon-ATP as substrate. The Vmax values obtained were 13.5 +/- 1.4 pmol x min(-1) x mg of protein(-1) for the first curve and 28.3 +/- 1.6 pmol x min(-1) x mg of protein(-1) considering both components. This kinetic behavior can be explained on the basis of a mnemonic model. The nonhydrolyzable adenine nucleotide analogues adenosine 5'-O-3-(thiotriphosphate), adenosine 5'-O-2-(thiodiphosphate), and adenosine 5'-(beta,gamma-imino)triphosphate and the diadenosine polyphosphates P1,P3-di(adenosine)triphosphate, P1,P4-di(adenosine)tetraphosphate, and P1,P5-di(adenosine)pentaphosphate inhibited the nucleotide transport. The mitochondrial ATP/ADP exchange inhibitor atractyloside, N-ethylmaleimide, and polysulfonic aromatic compounds such as Evans blue and 4,4'-diisothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulfonic acid also inhibit epsilon-ATP vesicular transport.
