Extraction of isolated, demembranated flagellar axonemes of C. reinhardii with 0.6 M KCl solubilized 77-92% of the total axonemal Mg2+ or Ca2+-ATPase activity, which sedimented as 18S and 12S peaks in sucrose density gradients. The ATPase of these 2 peaks were further purified by hydroxylapatite (HAP) column chromatography. The ATPase activity of the 18S peak eluted from the HAP column as a single peak coinciding with the protein peak. The HAP purified 18S ATPase had a specific activity of .apprx. 2.0 .+-. 0.5 .mu.mol Pi hydrolyzed min/mg and was associated with 4 high MW (HMW) polypeptides of .apprx. 310,000-340,000 daltons, 2 intermediate MW (IMW) polypeptides of 78,000 and 69,000 daltons and 8 low-MW (LMW) polypeptides of 7800-19,600 daltons. When the 12S sucrose gradient peak together with a trailing shoulder were chromatographed on HAP, the ATPase activity was eluted in 2 peaks designated 12S and 10.5S on the basis of the sedimentation properties of their associated polypeptides. The 12S peak contained a single dynein ATPase having a specific activity of .apprx. 0.6 .+-. 0.3 .mu.mol Pi hydrolyzed min/mg and associated with .apprx. 330,000-, 21,700- and 18,100-dalton polypeptides. The 10.5S peak contained several HMW, IMW and LMW polypeptides; of these, 1 HMW polypeptide and one 28,700-dalton polypeptide correlated well with the ATPase activity. The purified ATPases had no polypeptides in common; each therefore represents a discrete dynein. Based on protein recovered in the purified fractions, 18S dynein represents .apprx. 9.2% of the total axonemal protein; 12S dynein represents .apprx. 4.7% of the axonemal protein.
