The effects of sulfite, bicarbonate, thiocyanate, methanol, ethanol, glycerol, dimethy sulfoxide and ADP on the ATPase activity of the coupling factor from liver mitochondria (F1) and pea chloroplasts (CF1) and of the anion-sensitive ATPase from rat erythrocytes were investigated. 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 mechanisms of modification by anions and alcohols of the ATPase activities are discussed.
