Abstract

Two antisera (ATP88 and ATP95) raised against the V-ATPase holoenzyme of Kalanchoe daigremontianawere tested for their cross-reactivity with subunits ofV-ATPases from other plant species. V-ATPases fromKalanchoe blossfeldiana, Mesembryanthemum crys-tallinum, Nicotians tabacum, Lycopersicon esculentum, Citrus limon, Lemna gibba, Hordeum vulgäre and Zea mays were immunoprecipitated with an antiserumagainst the catalytic V-ATPase subunit A of M. crystal-linum. As shown by silver staining and Western blotanalysis with ATP88, subunits A, B, C, D and c werepresent in all immunoprecipitated V-ATPases. In contrast, ATP95 recognized the whole set of subunits onlyin K. blossfeldiana, M. crystallinum, H. vulgäre and Z.mays. This differential cross reactivity of ATP95 indicates the presence of structural differences of certainV-ATPase subunits. Based on the Bafilomycin A1-sen-sitive ATPase activity of tonoplast enriched vesicles, and on the amount of V-ATPase solubilized and immunoprecipitated, the specific ATP-hydrolysis activity ofthe V-ATPases under test was determined. The structural differences correlate with the ability of V-ATPases from different species to hydrolyze ATP atone given assay condition for ATP-hydrolysis measu-rements. Interestingly V-ATPases showing crossreactivity of subunits A, B, C, D and c with ATP95 showedhigher rates of specific ATP hydrolysis compared to V-ATPases containing subunits which were not labeledby 95. Thus, V-ATPases with high turnover rates in our assay conditions may show common structuralcharacteristics which separate them from ATPases with low turnover rates.
