Popis: The plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae is an enzyme that plays a very important role in the yeast physiology. The addition of protonophores, such as 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP) and carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP), also triggers a clear in vivo activation of this enzyme. Here, we demonstrate that CCCP-induced activation of the plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase shares some similarities with the sugar-induced activation of the enzyme. Phospholipase C and protein kinase C activities are essential for this activation process while Gpa2p, a G protein involved in the glucose-induced activation of the ATPase, is not required. CCCP also induces a phospholipase C-dependent increase in intracellular calcium. Moreover, we show that the availability of extracellular calcium is required for CCCP stimulation of H(+)-ATPase, suggesting a possible connection between calcium signaling and activation of ATPase.
