Immunoaffinity Purification screening procedures for production of the anti-H+ATPaseantibody are reported in the preceding article (32). Briefly, mice were immunized with H’ATPase isolated by combined conventional and HPLC fractionation, and hybridoma supernatants were screened initially for binding to theisolated H’ATPase by a “dot-blot” assay. Supernatants positive on this screen were then tested for immunoprecipitation of NEM-sensitive ATPase activityfrom solubilized kidney microsomes. One antibody, H6.1, fulfilled this criterion and was also able to immunoprecipitate proton-transporting vesicles from bovine kidney microsomes. This antibody was used for the studies reported in this paper. Purification of Monoclonul Antibody H6.1-Ascites was collected from Pristane-treated mice injected intraperitoneally with H6.1 hybridoma cells as described (10). A 30-50% saturated ammonium sulfate fraction of ascites was prepared and dialyzed against 20 mM MES, 5 mM sodium azide, pH 6.0. The sample was centrifuged a t 35,000 X g for 15 min, and about 25 mg was applied to a I-ml Mono S column (Pharmacia) equilibrated in the same buffer and eluted with a 0-0.15 M linear NaCl gradient over 50 min in the same buffer a t 1 ml/min. The fractions were initially assayed for ability to immunoprecipitate solubilized NEM-sensitive ATPase activity. Thereafter, the initial large protein peak, identified by the 280 nm of absorbance, was collected. The pooled fractions were adjusted to pH 7.5 with 1 M Tris andapplied to a 1-ml Mono Q column (Pharmacia) equilibrated in 20 mM Tris-C1,5 mM sodium azide, pH 7.5, and eluted with a 0-0.25 M linear NaCl gradient over 50 min a t 1 ml/min. A large peak (Azm)reproducibly had purified H6.1 immunoglobulin. Preparation of Affinity Gel-Purified H6.1 was coupled to protein A-Sepharose by the method of Schneider et al. (11)a t a ratio of 3 mg of antibody/ml of gel, and 15 mM dimethylpimelimidate was used for coupling. The gel was washed and stored in 20 mM Tris, 5 mM azide, pH 7.5 (TA buffer). Immunoprecipitation of H+ATPase-Immunoprecipitations were performed as follows: polyethylene glycol (molecular weight 20,000) was added to the solubilized membranes to a final concentration of 1%.50 p1 of H6.1 A-Sepharose beads were washed once with 1ml of T A buffer with 1%polyethylene glycol and incubated with solubilized membrane fractions for 1 h at 25 “C. The beads were then washed three times with 1 ml of TA buffer with 0.1% CHAPS and 0.1% nonyl glucoside; then three times with the same buffer containing 500 mM NaC1; then three final washes in the same buffer without salt. In the experiments inFigs. 1 and 4C,the bound protein was eluted from the beads with 50 mM glycine, 5 mM sodium azide, 0.1% CHAPS, 0.1% nonyl glucoside, pH 2.5. In the experiments inFig. 1,other detergents were washed in the washing procedure as indicated. Immunoaffinity Isolation of H+ATPase-Purification of the H+ATPase on the monoclonal antibody affinity column was done by a procedure similar to thatused for the immunoprecipitation experiments. A 5-ml column of H6.1-A-Sepharose was washed with T A buffer with 1% polyethylene glycol, and solubilized membrane containing 1%polyethylene glycol wasapplied to thecolumn. The column was washed successively with 10 volumes each of the same series of buffers used in the immunoprecipitation experiments. The column was then eluted with 5 volumes of 50 mM glycine, 5 mM sodium azide, 0.1% CHAPS, 0.1% nonyl glucoside, pH 2.5. Preparation of Solubilized Soybean Phospholipid-Soybean phospholipid (asolectin; Sigma) was washed with acetone and dissolved in ether as described (12). The lipid was dried under nitrogen in a test tube, and 10 mM Tris-C1, 5 mM sodium azide, pH 7.0 was added to yield a final concentration of40mgof lipid/ml. The lipid was sonicated to near clarity under nitrogen, and a final concentrationof I % CHAPS (w/v) was added and stirred at 4 “C for 30 min. The mixture was centrifuged a t 100,000 X g for 1 h and the solubilized supernatant termed “solubilized soybean phospholipid,” was used as indicated. Assay of Immunoprecipitated ATPase Activity-ATPase activity bound to formalin-fixed protein A-bearing staphylococcal beads was assayed as follows: 10 p l of a 10% suspension of staphylococcal beads (Pansorbin; Behring Diagnostics) was used for each assay tube. 5 pg of rabbit anti-mouse IgG (Cooper; Malvern, PA) per 10 p l of staphylococcal beads was added, and the mixture was allowed to stand 15 min a t 22 “C. Beads were centrifuged and washed twice with 10 mM Tris-C1,500 mM NaCl, pH 7.4 (TBS), andresuspended at theoriginal volume in TBS. 5 pg of purified H6.1 antibody was then added per 10 p1 of beads and allowed to stand 1 h a t 22 “C. Beads were washed once with TA buffer with 1%polyethylene glycol and incubated with detergent-solubilized membranes containing 1%polyethylene glycol for 1 h a t 22 “C. The beads were then washed once in 10 times the

FIG. 1. A, effect of different detergent washes on immunoprecipitated polypeptide pattern. 50 p l of protein A-Sepharose beads with covalently attatched H6.1 monoclonal antibody was incubated either with whole solubilized membranes (Sol Micros), or with membranes partially purified by two 40-50% ammonium sulfate precipitations (2 X AmS) as under “Experimental Procedures.” Beadswere then washed successivelythree times each with detergent solutions without salt, then with 0.5 M NaCI, then without salt. Solutions contained 10 mM Tris-C1, pH 7.5, 5 mM sodium azide, and detergent either 0.1% CHAPS and 0.1% nonyl glucoside (CHAPS), 0.1% Tween-20 (Tween), or 0.5% Triton X-I00 and 0.5% sodium deoxycholate (TritDOC) as indicated. Beads were then extracted with two 100-plaliquots of 50 mM glycine-C1,5 mM azide, pH 2.8. The bead supernatant (3S), bead pellet ( 3 B ) ,and postincubation-solubilized membrane supernatant (7s)were subjected to electrophoresis on a 10% SDS-polyacrylamide gel. The large band seen near the bottom of the gel in each 3E lane represents monoclonal antibody light chain. The gel shows that the pattern of immunoprecipitated polypeptides was not affected by the detergent washing conditions. B, immunoprecipitation with irrelevant monoclonal antibody MOPC21. MOPC2l was coupled to protein A-Sepharose beads under conditions identical to those used for coupling H6.1. 50 p l of beads were used for immunoprecipitation; a protocol identical to thatused above (washed with buffer containing CHAPS and nonyl glucoside) was employed. The control beads did not immunoprecipitate any of the polypeptides binding to the H6.1 beads. A faint light chain band (15)was visible in the 3B lane.

For many of the experiments, 50 pg (100 pg/ml) phosphatidyl glycerol was also added to the assays. ATPase Assays-ATPase (total and NEM-sensitive) was assayed as described previously (8). NEM-sensitive activity was assayed as the difference in ATPase activity after 5 min of preincubation with and without1mM NEM. Assayscontained no other inhibitors except as indicatedin the text, and the ionic conditions and buffers used in each assay are indicated inthe text. For the experiments on pH dependence, assays contained 30 mM Bis-Tris-propaneadjusted with gluconic acid or Tris, and 2 mMMg gluconate. For the experiments on ATP concentration dependence (Fig. 7) assays contained 30 mM Bis-Tris-C1, pH 6.5, 5 mM phosphoenolpyruvate, 50pg/ml pyruvatekinase, 6 mM MgCl,, and concentrations of ATP indicated. For the nucleotide and lipid dependence of activity, and effectsof inhibitors, assays contained 30 mM Bis-Tris-C1, pH 6.5, and 6 mM MgC12. Transport Assays-Assaysfor ATP-dependent proton transport using acridineorange were asdescribedpreviously (8). Transport assays contained 10 mM Bis-Tris-C1, pH 6.5, 150 mM KC1, 6 mM MgC12, and 1 p~ valinomycin; transport was initiated by addition of 1 mM ATP. ATP-dependent potential generation was assayed with the anionic potential-sensitiveprobe oxonol V (20 p ~ using ) a dual wavelength spectrophotometer measuring the 590-625 nm absorbance difference as described (13).Transport buffer contained 10mM Bis-Tris-C1, pH 6.5, 150mM KCl, 6 mM MgC1, and was initiated by addition of 1 mM ATP. Reconstitution of Proton Transport by Immunoprecipitated H+ATPase-50 pl of H6.1-protein A-Sepharose beads were incubated with 1ml of solubilized membranes as described for the immunoprecipitation experiments. Beadswere washed twice with 1 ml of 10 mM Tris-C1,5mM sodium azide, 0.1% CHAPS, 0.1% nonyl glucoside, pH 7.0, the supernatant was removed, and 50 p1 of solubilized soybean phospholipid (40 mg/ml) was added. 1 ml of 10 mM Tris-C1, 10 mM MES, 150 mM KCl, pH 7.0, was added to allow liposome formation by dilution; a final concentration of 2 mM MgC12 was then added. The entire samplewas transferred to a cuvette. Foracidification assays, 10 prn of acridine orange and 1 p~ valinomycin were added; for potential generation assays,5 p M oxonol V was added. Transport was then measured as described above. PolyacrylamideGelElectrophoresis-Discontinuous SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was used, and gelswere stained with Coomassie Blue (14). Protein Assays-All protein determinationswere by the method of Lowry etal. (15). The results did not differsubstantiallywhen compared with measurements made with the Bradford method, but the Lowry method allowed measurements of samples containing8 M urea. The amount of solubilizedmembraneproteinboundto the beads was measured by removal with an 8 M urea wash; the protein contained in an identical wash from control beads not incubated with the membrane proteinwas then subtracted. Materials-Polyethylene glycol (M, 20,000) was from Fisher, nonyl and decyl glucoside were from Behring Diagnostics, and protein ASepharosewas from Pierce ChemicalCo. All purified lipids were from AvantiPolarLipids,Inc.(Birmingham,AL).Oxonol V wasfrom Molecular Probes (Junction City, OR). All other reagents were from Sigma, unless otherwise indicated.

nents of the intact enzyme, or intimately associated with it. The number of protein chains bound to the affinity beads should depend on the strengthof the detergent present.Low strength detergentswould not be likely t o dissociate subunits of a multimeric protein but might not be strong enough to dissociate all“nonspecifically” bound proteins. High strength detergents should remove most nonspecifically bound polypeptides but might dissociate actual subunits of the protein as well. Thus, finding that the same group of polypeptides were coimmunoprecipitated in monoclonal antibody affinity beads after washing with detergents of different strengths would provide strong evidence that the polypeptides were components of a multimeric protein. The monoclonal antibody immunoaffinity strategy has been used to purify other intact, heteromultimeric membrane proteins, such as the T cell receptor (16). The immunoaffinity gel was prepared by covalently coupling monoclonal antibody directed against the proton pump, H6.1, to protein A-Sepharose beads. Bovine kidney microsomal membraneswere solubilized under conditions that preserved proton pump enzymatic activity as assayed by NEMsensitive ATPase activity. The H6.1-Sepharose was used initially in a series of immunoprecipitation experiments to examine the polypeptidecomposition of the solubilized protein binding to the beads and to determine the optimal washing andelutionconditions.Bothcrudeandpartially purified solubilized membranes were incubatedwiththeantibody beads. Washing was then carried out withbuffers containing either CHAPS, Tween-20, or Triton and deoxycholate, to represent, respectively, low, medium, and high “stringency” detergent washing. The antibody beads consistently immunoprecipitated 10 different polypeptides at M, of 70,000, a cluster at -56,000, 45,000, 42,000, 38,000, 33,000, 31,000, 15,000, 14,000, and 12,000. As shown in Fig. lA, thepolypeptide composition was unaffected by the several different detergent washing conditions. Most of the bound proteincould be eluted from the beads underacidic pH conditions, and the protein remaining on the beads had the same polypeptide composition as the eluted protein, except for noncovalently attached light chains seen in some preparations of beads. Thus, under all conditions tested, the monoclonal affinity beads coprecipitated the samegroup of polypeptides. In control experiments, an “irrelevant” monoclonal IgG1, MOPC21, coupled to protein A-Sepharose under identical conditions, didnotimmunoprecipitatethese polypeptides(Fig. IB), showing that nonspecific bindingdidnotaccount for the pattern of polypeptides obtained. The beads were next used to prepare an affinity column. Solubilized membranes were applied to the column, which was then washed extensively and eluted as described under “Experimental Procedures.” The applied flow through and elutedfractions from the column are shown in Fig. 2 for RESULTS solubilized microsomal membranes obtained from eitherkidPolypeptide Composition of Enzyme Isolated by Immunopre- ney medulla or cortex.

purified fromcortexand medulla were similar,but some differences were consistently present. The most obvious difference was in the relative distribution of polypeptides clus20a tered a t M , -56,000. Although this region on gels often contained four or more different polypeptides, those at M , 116 56,000 and 58,000 were most intense. In theenzyme prepared 9C from medullarymicrosomes, the amount of polypeptide at 58,000, assessed by staining intensity, was equal to orslightly greater than that 56,000, at while in the enzyme isolated from 66 cortex, the polyeptide a t M , 56,000 was usually about twice as intense as that58,000. at The significance of the difference in tissue distribution is uncertain, but the observations suggested the possibility that different isoforms of the proton 4s pump exist which have different -56,000 M , subunits. Some additional evidence to support the existence of different isoforms of the enzyme was provided by the distribution of NEM-sensitive ATPase activity andpolypeptide composition of fractions obtained from the Mono P column. In most x 29 of the separationsperformed, NEM-sensitive ATPaseactivity was partially resolved into two distinct peaks, as shown in L Fig. 3. The polypeptide composition in the-56,000 M , region E varied in the different fractions. As shown, the 56,000 M , polypeptide was present in the fractions of the first peak of ATPaseactivity, whereas the 58,000 M , polypeptidewas present mostly in the fractionsin the second peak of ATPase activity. While notconclusive, these observations are consistent with the notion that at least two different isoforms of the proton pump existwhich differ in composition in the -56,000 M , polypeptide and which are partiallyresolved on the Mono I12 P column. The polypeptide a t M , 45,000 had a peak intensity at Mono P fraction 23 in the second peak of ATPase activity. However, no consistentdifference in content of this polypeptide was noted between enzyme immunoaffinity purified from cortex or medulla. Reconstitution of Proton Transport by Immunoaffinity Purified H’ATPase-In the initial characterization studies of the H6.1 monoclonal antibody, it was found that concentradf . . tions as high as 25 pg/ml (ratio of 1:l for antibody/vesicle FIG. 2. Fractions from the monoclonal immunoaffinity col- protein) had no effect on proton transport in native kidney umn. 80 ml of solubilized membranes were applied to a 10-ml column vesicles. The antibody therefore appearedbetononinhibitory. In order to ascertain that the protein bound to the affinity of protein A-HG.l-Sepharose beads, and the columnwas washed and eluted as described under “Experimental Procedures.” Lane I , solu- beads represented a proton pump, purified ATPase bound to bilized cortex membranes, applied(40 pg); lane 2, cortex membranes, the beads was reconstituted into liposomes directly on the flow through (40 pg); lane 3, solubilized medulla membranes (40 pg); beadsand assayedfor ATP-dependentprotontransport. lune 4, medulla membranes, flow through (40 pg); lane 5,cortex eluate Beads were incubated with solubilized bovine kidney micro(15 pg); lane 6, medulla eluate (15 pg). somal membranes andwashed, and solubilized soybean phospholipid was added. The beads were then diluted 20 volumes both of fractions containing NEM-sensitive ATPase activity from the MonoP column and of the immunoaffinitypurified into KC1 buffer to allow liposome formation and were tested A, the reconstituted enzyme H’ATPase. In Fig. 3A, the column fractions were applied for proton transport. In Fig. 4 was tested for the ability to acidify the interiorof the liposome directly, and in Fig. 3B fractions were concentrated by tri(8).Addition of ATP produced chloroacetic acid precipitation before being applied to thegel. by the acridine orange method an immediate acidification that was inhibited by NEM and Several findings were apparent. The pattern of major polypeptides from the Mono P fractions was nearly identical to collapsed by the electroneutralexchange ionophore nigericin. Addition of 50 pl of solubilized soybean phospholipid to the that of the immunoaffinity purified H’ATPase. Thus, the beads was required for transport activity, which presumably samepattern of polypeptidesemergedwhentwo entirely independent methods of isolation were used, adding support allowed liposome formation on the beads to occur.

FIG.3. Comparison of polypeptide composition of Mono P fractions with immunoaffinity purified H+ATPase.A, 40-pl aliquots of fractions from the Mono P column step of H+ATPase isolation from a preceding paper' were applied to a 10% SDS-polyacrylamide gel. In the last lane, 25 pg of immunoaffinity purified bovine kidney medullary H+ATPase was applied. The major polypeptide bands in the two preparations were nearly identical. The 14,000 M,polypeptide was not seen well in the Mono P fractions on this gel but is apparent in Fig. 38. The affinity purified H+ATPase hadsome minor high molecular weight contaminants which were not seen in the preparation shown in Fig. 3B. The relative distribution of the polypeptides in the 56,000 M , cluster in the Mono P fractions varied through the double peak of NEM-sensitive ATPase activity. The 56,000 M , polypeptide had a peak intensity a t fractions 18 and 19, while the 58,000 M , polypeptide was most intense in fractions22 and 23. B, 150-p1aliquots of Mono P column fractions were precipitated with 150 plof 50%trichloroacetic acid, washed twice with 20 mM Tris-C1, pH 7.5, and applied to a 15% SDS-polyacrylamide gel. In the last two lanes, 20 pg of affinity purified bovine kidney medullary ( M ) and cortex (C) H+ATPase were applied. Minor contaminating bands are apparentin the concentrated Mono P fractions, but themajor polypeptides are present inthe affinity purified H'ATPase. Gel shows the composition of the affinity purified H+ATPase more clearly and reveals the 14,000 M , polypeptide in the Mono P fractions.

shown in Fig. 4C, the polypeptide composition obtained was essentially the same as seen in the protein eluted from the affinity column. Enzymatic Properties of the Zmmunoaffinity Purified H+ATPase-The enzyme bound to theaffinity beads retained NEM-sensitiveATPaseactivity and was used for further characterization of the purified proton pump. Isolation of the proton pump by conventional chromatography required ad-

dition of soybean phospholipid to all of the buffers to maintain activity, presumably to prevent delipidation. Washing the beads three times with 1 ml of TA buffer containing 0.1% CHAPS and0.1% nonyl glucoside and no added lipid resulted in a nearly complete loss of enzymatic activity with no change in thecomposition of polypeptides bound to thebeads, again suggesting that detergent removal of lipid caused loss of enzymatic activity. Therefore, a variety of lipids were tested

Immunoaffinity Purification

The structure of the immunoaffinity purified kidney H+ATPase is similar to thatfor plant (18-20), fungal (21,22), chromaffin granule (17, 23), and coated vesicle (24) H'ATPases, except that no 115-kDa polypeptide was apparent asreported for the lattertwo enzymes (23,24). The kidney proton pump has several enzymatic properties which distinguish it from those reported for other vacuolar H+ATPases. The kidney enzyme is not stimulated by chloride, as reported for the oat root tonoplast H'ATPase (20). The immunoaffinity purified kidney H'ATPase was stimulated greatly by phosphatidyl glycerol and phosphatidyl inositol, and only sightly by phosphatidyl choline and phosphatidyl serine, in contrast to results reported for the chromaffin granule (23) and coated vesicle enzymes (24). Since for both of these enzymes the 115kDa polypeptide has been reported to have ATP binding (23) or ATPaseactivity (25), the presence of this polypeptide may account for the differences in lipid stimulation. The enzyme from kidney does not have this polypeptide but still retains proton transport and ATPaseactivity with specific activities as high as 3.1 pmol. min-' .mg". DCCD-binding polypeptides of M , 12,000-17,000 have been noted for several of the vacuolar enzymes (19,21,23,26). The 15,000 M , polypeptide of the kidney H+ATPase also has a high affinity DCCD-binding site.4 In some of the vacuolar enzymes, it has been demonstrated that the DCCD-binding polypeptide is different from nucleotide-binding sites thought to be the catalytic site (19, 22). These findings suggest that the vacuolar H+ATPase has structural and functional similarities tothe FoFl H+ATPases. Exquisite sensitivity to DCCD is acharacteristic of the FoFl ATPases, in which DCCD binds toan acidic residue in the "DCCD-binding protein," one of the integral membrane polypeptides comprising the transmembrane proton channel. DCCD inhibits the mitochondrial FoF, ATPase with a KIAof 100 nmol/mg protein (27), giving a KIAof 1 pM for 10 pg of protein as used in the kidney inhibition experiments described here. When the catalytic (F,) domain is detatched, the sensitivity of the mitochondrial F1 ATPase to DCCD drops over 10-fold (28), and inhibition occurs by reaction of the reagent with the p subunit (28).The kidney H'ATPase had aK,, for inhibition by DCCD of 4.9 p ~ similar , to the value of 1 pM reported for the oat root enzyme (20), but differing from the values of 130 p~ reported for the coated vesicle enzyme (29). It is possible that differences in the sensitivity to DCCD and differences in other enzymatic properties observed between the kidney and other vacuolar H'ATPases could be the result of detachment of a catalytic portion of the enzyme in a manner analogous to that in the mitochondrial enzyme. Binding of DCCD to polypeptides other than those in the membrane spanning domain might not be apparent at the low concentrations of DCCD generally used with radiolabeled probes. Several properties of the immunoaffinity purified kidney H+ATPase were similar to those of other reported vacuolar H+ATPases. The broad pH profile with an optimum at 6.5 is similar to thatreported for the oat root tonoplast H+ATPase. The substrate specificity of the kidney H+ATPase is similar to that reported for the chromaffin granule enzyme (23), and the K , for ATP is close to that reported for the oat root proton pump (20). The differences in polypeptide composition between medullary and cortex H'ATPase preparations, and theseparation of ATPase activity on the Mono P column into two distinct peaks with differing polypeptide compositions supported the possibility that two or more different forms of the proton pump exist in the affinity purified preparation. This would

of Vacuolar H+ATPase not be entirely unexpected, as the microsomal membranes used to prepare the enzyme are derived from a variety of cell types and likely include a mixture of several different vacuolar compartments. Different types of proton pumps, if present, could therefore represent compartment-specific or cell typespecific forms of the enzyme. The dual pH optimum of ATPase activity found for the affinity purified enzyme could represent the summation of a mixture of enzymes with different pHoptima. The difference in structure between the kidney H'ATPase andthose of other reported mammalian vacuolar-type H+ATPases (17-24) may be due to a difference in the method of preparation or purity of the enzymes or it may reflect an actual difference in structure. The proton pump in mammalian kidney is expressed at high levels and is present predominantly in the plasma membrane in specific cell types in several nephron segments.' The H'ATPase in proton-transporting epithelia also displays rapid changes in compartmentation between intracellular vacuoles and the plasma membrane in response to physiological stimuli (30) not described for proton pumps in othercompartments of the vacuolar system. Proton pumps in different organelles may vary in packing densities, enzymatic properties (31), and may require different targeting information. Having structural differences between proton pumps in different membrane compartments is one mechanism by which the cell could accomplish this.
