Effects of phosphate and hydrophobic molecules on two mutations in the beta-strand sector of the H(+)-ATPase from the yeast plasma membrane

At concentrations from 10 to 100 mM, inorganic phosphate and sulfate stimulate the activity of the H(+)-ATPase purified from the wild type Schizosaccharomyces pombe plasma membranes. Compared to the wild type ATPase, the stimulation by phosphate is more pronounced in the mutant pma1-1 (Gly-268----Asp) and is much reduced in the mutant pma1-2 (Lys- 250----Thr) enzymes. In contrast, the inhibition by trifluoperazine is less pronounced in the pma1-1 mutant than in the wild type or pma1-2 mutant. The mutant pma1-2 ATPase activity is markedly stimulated by 10- 20% dimethyl sulfoxide, which has a limited effect on the wild type and pma1-1 enzymes. These data indicate that the protein domain located in the beta-strand sector, including Lys-250 and Gly-268, is located in the active site and that its hydrophobic character influences the interactions of the yeast H(+)-ATPase with inorganic phosphate, as well as with the hydrophobic inhibitor trifluoperazine or the hydrophobic solvent dimethyl sulfoxide.
