Abstract: | 1. Solubilization of mitochondrial bound hexokinase (HK), which represents 75-80% of the total enzyme activity in the cells, was investigated in freshly isolated mitochondria from undifferentiated (Glc+) or differentiated (Glc-) HT29 adenocarcinoma cells. In both models, the bound HK is almost completely released in vitro by 100 microM glucose 6-P (G 6-P). 2. Free ATP (5 mM) or palmitate (800 microM) produce a partial solubilization of bound HK, more markedly in the case of Glc- mitochondria. 3. Glucose or glucose 1-P are found unable to solubilize bound HK. Glucose 1,6-P2, 2-deoxyglucose 6-P or glucosamine 6-P can solubilize the enzyme but are less efficient than G 6-P. 4. Mg2+ and Pi are found to counteract the glucose 6-P induced solubilization of HK in both types of mitochondria. Taking into account the intracellular concentrations of these ions, this could in part explain why, in HT29 cells, HK is predominantly bound to the mitochondria. |
