Gastrula-stage embryos of Artemia franciscana (brine shrimp) undergo dramatic respiratory depression and developmental arrest upon release from the adult female as they enter a state of hypometabolism termed diapause [1]. Metabolism as measured by respiration rate declines by over 99% during entry into diapause across a 26-day time course [2]. The primary basis for the inhibition is a restriction of oxidative substrate to the mitochondrion that involves an orchestrated interplay at multiple enzymatic sites including trehalase, hexokinase, pyruvate kinase and pyruvate dehydrogenase [2].

While a substantial decrease in embryo ATP occurs during diapause, a significant amount of ATP remains [e.g., ATP:ADP ratio = 1.306 ยฑ 0.036 (mean ยฑ SE, N = 10)]. This observation is noteworthy when one considers that proton conductances of mitochondria isolated from diapause and post-diapause embryos are identical when compared as a function of the driving force (ฮ”ฮจ) [2]. Thus proton leak apparently is not downregulated during diapause, and as a consequence, mitochondrial ฮ”ฮจ is likely severely compromised because respiration of intact embryos is depressed far below that required to compensate for leak. Under such conditions, one would predict that the F1Fo-ATP synthase could reverse and fully deplete cellular ATP. Because ATP is not depleted, we predict that the F1Fo-ATP synthase is blocked during diapause by the F1-ATPase inhibitor protein IF1. This 9.6 kDa protein binds to the ATP synthase at the F1 catalytic domain and inhibits the hydrolytic activity of the enzyme under conditions where ฮ”ฮจ is low [3]. Further, acidic pH is known to promote the formation of the active dimeric state of IF1 and a stable complex with the enzyme [3]. It is likely that intracellular pH of A. franciscana embryos may decline during diapause as the metabolic depression phase progresses.

IF1 could potentially explain the conservation of adenylates in diapause. Affinity purification [4] and characterization of the ATP synthase from A. franciscana and its interaction with IF1 is underway.
