ATPase and alkaline phosphatase activities of chick and rat small intestinal mucosa
Biochimica Et Biophysica Acta
|November 9, 1979
Abstract:
The alkaline phosphatase and (Ca2+ +Mg2+)-ATPase (ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) of chick and rat small intestine have been investigated. The same pH optimum was found for membrane-bound and solubilized alkaline phosphatase, whereas those of the corresponding ATPases differed. The solubilised ATPases had inhibition and activation characteristics similar to those of alkaline phosphatase but markedly different from those of the membrane-bound ATPase. These results suggest that membrane-bound alkaline phosphatase and ATPase are not the same enzyme.

ATP Driven Pumps II: P-type Pumps
The P-type pumps are a large family of integral membrane transporter ATPases. They are divided into five major types based on substrate specificity, from I to V.
A typical P-type pump has three cytosolic domains: nucleotide-binding (N), phosphorylation (P), and activator (A) domains. These domains are connected to the membrane-spanning helices by short amino acid segments. ATP hydrolysis and covalent phosphoenzyme intermediate formation are crucial parts of the catalytic cycle. At the highly...

ATP Driven Pumps III: V-type Pumps
V-type pumps are ATP-driven pumps found in the vacuolar membranes of plants, yeast, endosomal and lysosomal membranes of animal cells, plasma membranes of a few specialized eukaryotic cells, and some prokaryotes. They are also known as the V1Vo-ATPase, that couple ATP hydrolysis to transport protons against a concentration gradient.
The peripheral or cytosolic V1 domain with eight subunits is involved in ATP hydrolysis. The integral or transmembrane V0 domain containing at least five subunits...
