The concept that the location of an AAA-ATPase associated with the plant plasma membrane may be indicative of a functional relationship to growth or cell enlargement by analogy with roles in physical membrane displacements as proposed for AAA-ATPases associated with internal membranes was tested. A plant growth hormone-responsive and nucleoside triphosphate-dependent enlargement of inside-out vesicles of plasma membranes from soybeans was utilized in a completely cell-free system. The rate of enlargement was accelerated by the synthetic plant growth factor 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) in a log dose-dependent manner and was increased approximately 2-fold with the addition of 1 microM 2,4-D plus 100 microM ATP compared to 100 microM ATP alone, 1 microM 2,4-D alone or no additions. The cell-free enlargement was inhibited by AAA-ATPase-specific antisera and by CoCl2, an inhibitor specific for AAA-ATPases. The responsible ATP site appears to be on the inside of the cell, since right side-out vesicles did not enlarge in response to either ATP, 2,4-D or the two in combination.
