Popis: An isoquinoline derivative, 3-benzylamino-5,6-dihydro-8,9-dimethoxy-imidazo-(5,1-a)-iso-quinoline hydrochloride, BIIA, with positive inotropic and antiarrhythmic actions, reversibly inhibited the Na + , K + -ATPase of deoxycholate and NaI treated musomes from guinea-pig heart, brain and kidney. The inhibition was pH dependent, increasing with increasing pH and the concentration of the highly lipid soluble, unprotonated molecule. BIIA inhibited Na + , K + -ATPase in a concentration range of 1–100 μmoles/l, in a manner uncompetitive with respect to ATP and K + , and competitive with respect to Na + , K + PNPPase of the same preparation was also inhibited by BIIA, albeit at higher concentrations. This inhibition was competitive with K + . Affinity for substrate, as measured with [ 14 C]-ATP, was increased and labelling from AT 32 P decreased competitive with Na + . BIIA decreases the affinity of the enzyme for (Mg 2+ + P i ) supported ouabain binding, higher concentrations of BIIA also affect (Na + ATP) supported binding. It is suggested that BIIA enters a hydrophobic environment of the Na + , K + -ATPase and interacts at or near the Na + -activation sites, inhibiting the formation of the phosphorylated intermediate.
