Site-directed mutagenesis of Asp-376, the catalytic phosphorylation site, and Lys-507, the putative ATP-binding site, of the alpha-subunit of Torpedo californica Na+/K(+)-ATPase.
Abstract
Point mutations of Asp-376 of the alpha-subunit of Torpedo californica Na+/K(+)-ATPase (the site of phosphorylation during the catalytic cycle) to Asn, Glu or Thr led to virtual abolishment of Na+/K(+)-ATPase activity and ouabain-binding capacity. Replacement of Lys-507 of the same subunit (the putative ATP-binding site) by Met resulted in decreases in Na+/K(+)-ATPase activity and ouabain-binding capacity. These results are in agreement with those reported for rabbit sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2(+)-ATPase (Maruyama, K. and MacLennan, D.H. (1988) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 85, 3314-3318).
