Activities of ectophosphatases (alkaline phosphatase, 5'-nucleotidase and ecto-ATPase) from different subpopulation of lymphoma NKLy and ovary tumor of rats were investigated. A strong positive correlation has been shown between these activities in different subpopulations. A negative correlation between proliferative activity and activities of ectophosphatases was determined.

Under steady-state conditions of ATP hydrolysis catalyzed by F1, CF1, and erythrocyte ATPase, three Km values for each of the enzymes, three activation constants for sulfite and three inhibition constants for thiocyanate were determined. The efficiency and direction of the effects of anions, alcohols and ADP strongly depend on temperature and substrate (Mg-ATP) concentration.

The ATPase activity was competitively inhibited by thiocyanate in mixtures containing sulfite. Thiocyanate, chlorine-anion, bicarbonate and sulfite affected noncompetitively the enzymatic activity as compared with Mg2+-ATP, ADP and calcium.

The ATPase preparations possess no Na, K- or Mg, Ca-ATPase activities. ATPase from rat erythrocyte membranes is made up of five subunits with molecular weights of 58 000 (alpha), 50 000 (beta), 36 000 (gamma), 25 000 (delta) and 12 000 (epsilon) and can be represented by the formula alpha 3 beta 3 gamma delta epsilon.
