Eosin bound to the (Na++ K+)-ATPase in the presence of K+ has practically the same fluorescence as eosin without enzyme while in the presence of Na+ the fluorescence is higher, the excitation maximum is shifted from 518 to 524 nm, the emission maximum from 538 to 542 nm, and a shoulder appears at about 490 nm on the excitation curve.(2) The amount of eosin bound increases with the K+ concentration but with a low affinity. With equal concentrations of Na+ and K+ more is bound in the presence of Na+, and the difference between 150 mM Na+ and 150 mM K+ shows one high-affinity eosin binding site per 32 P-labelling site (K D 0.45 μM). With lower concentrations of the cations there are between one and two Na+-dependent high-affinity eosin binding sites per 32 P-labelling site.(3) ATP (and ADP) prevents the hig-affinity Na+-dependent eosin binding and there is competition between eosin and ATP for the hydrolysis in the presence of Na+(+ Mg 2+).(4) Eosin, like ATP, increases the Na+ relative to K+ affinity (Na++ K+= 150 mM) for Na+ activation of hydrolysis and for Na+ protection against inactivation by N-ethylmaleimide.(5) The results suggest that the high affinity eosin binding site is an ATP binding site and that it is located on the enzyme in an environment with a low polarity, ie, the conformational change induced by Na+ opens a high-affinity site for ATP while K+ closes the site (or decreases the affinity to a low level). The experiments suggest, furthermore, that the ATP which increases the Na+ relative to K+ affinity of the internal sites is not the ATP which is hydrolyzed, ie, in a turnover cycle in the presence of Na++ K+ the system reacts with two different ATP molecules.
