Investigation of the properties of Ca2(+)-ATPase of sarcoplasmic reticulum cross-linked at the active site with glutaraldehyde showed that ATP binding affinity and rate of ATP-dependent phosphorylation and Ca2+ occlusion were decreased 2-3 orders of magnitude compared with the native enzyme. Cross-linkage had little effect on or marginally increased the rate of acetyl phosphate- and p-nitrophenyl phosphate-supported Ca2+ occlusion. Ca2+ binding or Ca2(+)-induced changes in tryptophan fluorescence were unaffected. High levels of phosphoenzyme (up to 4 nmol/mg of protein) were obtained, with 2 mol of Ca2+ occluded/mol of E-P. Dephosphorylation and deocclusion occurred together at a slow rate (k = 0.01 s-1) and were stimulated in a monophasic manner up to 20-fold by ADP. Cross-linking inhibited E2-P formation from Pi in 30% (v/v) dimethyl sulfoxide by more than 95%. Induction of turnover of the native ATPase, under conditions designed to yield high steady state levels of E1 approximately P(2Ca), results in a 3-4-fold increase in reactivity of active site residues to glutaraldehyde. The results show that cross-linkage sterically impairs nucleotide binding, changing ATP and ADP into relatively poor substrates, slowing nucleotide-dependent phosphoryl transfer and Ca2+ occlusion and deocclusion. The forward reaction with smaller substrates is unaffected. Another major effect of the cross-link is to inhibit E2-P formation, causing accumulation of E1 approximately P(2Ca) during enzyme turnover and preventing phosphorylation by Pi in the reverse direction. We suggest that occlusion and deocclusion of cations at the transport site of the native enzyme are linked to a two-step cleft closure movement at the active site and that the crosslink stabilizes occluded forms of the pump because it blocks part of this tertiary structural change. The latter could normally be propagated through linking helices to the distal side of the pump to destabilize the cations and open the transport sites to the lumen. |
