Abstract
The fluorescing sulfhydryl reagent N-(7-dimethylamino-4-methylcoumarinyl)maleimide (DACM) inactivates purified (Na+ + K+)-ATPase at 20 .mu.M. This inactivation results in a decrease of the ouabain-binding capacity of the enzyme. Treatment of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase, embedded in right-side-out-oriented vesicles, by DACM does not affect ouabain binding to the enzyme. Incorporation of DACM into the .alpha. subunit of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase embedded in right-side-out vesicles is also not affected by the presence or absence of 100 .mu.M ouabain. It is therefore concluded that a sulfhydryl group does not reside within the ouabain-binding site of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase.Keywords
