Abstrakt: This work analyses the thermostability of a membrane protein, the gastric H,K-ATPase, by means of a detailed kinetic characterization of its inactivation process, which showed to exhibit first-order kinetics. We observed parallel time courses for the decrease of ATPase activity, the decrease of the autophosphorylation capacity and the loss of tertiary structure at 49 °C. Higher temperatures were required to induce a significant change in secondary structure. The correspondence between the kinetics of Trp fluorescence measured at 49 °C and the decrease of the residual activity after heating at that temperature, proves the irreversibility of the inactivation process. Inactivation proceeds at different rates in E1 or E2 conformations. The K + -induced E2 state exhibits a lower inactivation rate; the specific effect is exerted with a K 0.5 similar to that found at 25 °C, providing a further inkling that K + occlusion by the H,K-ATPase is not really favoured. Increasing [H + ] from pH 8 to pH 7, which possibly shifts the protein to E1, produces a subtle destabilizing effect on the H,K-ATPase. We performed a prediction of potential intramolecular interactions and found that the differential stability between E1 and E2 may be mainly explained by the higher number of hydrophobic interactions in the α- and β-subunits of E2 conformation.
