    Notes: Abstract The interaction between the fluorescent ouabain derivative DEDO and purified renal Na,K-ATPase (isolated from different animal species) is investigated. Equilibrium binding studies provide a pK value of about 7.5 and a stoichoimetric coefficient of 1. Nonmodified ouabain exhibits the same affinity to the rabbit enzyme; the enzyme originating from the other sources binds DEDO 10 times less strongly than ouabain. Kinetic studies indicate that this is the consequence of a 10 times higher dissociation rate constant of the complexes formed with DEDO. The fluorescence emission intensity of DEDO is enhanced, being dependent on the enzyme source. The single decay time of DEDO is 3 ns in the absence and 21 ns in the presence of the rabbit enzyme and 14 ns in the presence of the pig renal enzyme. This result suggests that the fluorophore of DEDO is bound to a very hydrophobic environment of the enzyme. Further characterization of the static fluorescence spectra provides evidence for energy transfer between Trp residues of the enzyme and DEDO. Distance estimations suggest that one or two Trp residues are likely to be located in the proximity of the fluorophore.

    Conformational changes of Na,K-ATPase probed with eosin Y (1996)
    Springer
    Journal of fluorescence 6 (1996), S. 165-168 
    Details
    ISSN: 1573-4994
    Keywords: Cation binding ; fluorescence decay ; kinetics ; binding constants ; Na,K-ATPase ; eosin Y
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Physics
    Notes: Abstract Time-resolved fluorescence and binding studies have been carried out on Na,K-ATPase in the presence of the fluorescent dye eosin Y to obtain thermodynamic and kinetic parameters for the interaction of the enzyme with different cations. Eosin Y binding is indicated by a 3 ns fluorescence decay process and is observed only in the presence of mono- and divalent cations. This type of cation binding is interpreted as a nonselective electrostatic interaction, with negatively charged groups of the enzyme providing a high-affinity eosin Y binding site. Eosin Y binding is observed only under conditions where the enzyme exists in the conformational state F1. The kinetic parameters of eosin Y binding have been determined employing stopped-flow fluorometry.
