Kinetic cooperativity change after H2O2 modification of (Na,K)-ATPase

The kinetics of hydrolysis of ATP and p-nitrophenylphosphate and the action of the allosteric effectors, Na+ and K+, upon the hydrolysis of these substrates were used to study the H2O2-modified, uncoupled (Na,K)-ATPase isolated from cultured bovine lenses ( Garner , W. H., Garner , M. H., and Specto...

Summary:The kinetics of hydrolysis of ATP and p-nitrophenylphosphate and the action of the allosteric effectors, Na+ and K+, upon the hydrolysis of these substrates were used to study the H2O2-modified, uncoupled (Na,K)-ATPase isolated from cultured bovine lenses ( Garner , W. H., Garner , M. H., and Spector , A. (1983) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 80, 2044-2048). Pure bovine renal (Na,K)-ATPase was modified by H2O2 in 150 mM KCl and 20 mM MgCl2 to yield an enzyme with kinetic properties similar to the enzyme isolated from the H2O2-treated, cultured bovine lens. H2O2 modification changes the interaction of the ATP hydrolysis site from negative to positive kinetic cooperativity. H2O2 modification dramatically alters Na+ stimulation of ATP hydrolysis and Na+ inhibition of p-nitrophenylphosphate hydrolysis while having little effect upon K+ control of the hydrolysis of these two substrates.
