Two type 2A protein phosphatases, phosphatases I (Mr = 180,000) and III (Mr = 177,000), were purified to near homogeneity from human erythrocyte cytosol. Phosphatase I was composed of alpha (34 kDa), beta (63 kDa), and delta (74 kDa) subunits in a ratio of 1:1:1. Phosphatase III comprised alpha, beta, and gamma (53 kDa) subunits in the same ratio. Heparin-Sepharose column chromatography converted most of phosphatase I and 20% of phosphatase III into alpha 1 beta 1 which were indistinguishable from phosphatase IV (Usui, H., Kinohara, N., Yoshikawa, K., Imazu, M., Imaoka, T., and Takeda, M. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 10455-10463). The catalytic subunit alpha and the beta subunit of phosphatases I, III, and IV displayed identical V8 and papain peptide maps, respectively, while the peptide maps of the alpha, beta, gamma, and delta subunits were clearly distinct. The molar ratio of phosphatases I, III, and IV in erythrocyte cytosol was estimated to be 6:1:14. Comparison of molecular activities of alpha, alpha 1 beta 1, alpha 1 beta 1 delta 1, and alpha 1 beta 1 gamma 1 revealed that beta suppressed phosphorylase and P-H2B histone phosphatase activities of alpha but stimulated the P-H1 histone phosphatase activity, and delta suppressed all the phosphatase activities of alpha 1 beta 1. The gamma subunit stimulated the P-histone phosphatase activity of alpha 1 beta 1 but inhibited the phosphorylase and P-spectrin phosphatase activities. The beta subunit increased the Mg2+ or Mn2+ requirement for P-H2B histone phosphatase activity of alpha, an effect which was counteracted by delta. The effects of heparin, H1 histone, protamine, and polylysine on the phosphorylase phosphatase activity of phosphatases I, III, IV, and alpha were described and discussed in connection with the functions of the subunits.  相似文献

A high molecular weight protein phosphatase (phosphatase H-II) was isolated from rabbit skeletal muscle. The enzyme had a Mr = 260,000 as determined by gel filtration and possessed two types of subunit, of Mr = 70,000 and 35,000, respectively, as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. On ethanol treatment, the enzyme was dissociated to an active species of Mr = 35,000. The purified phosphatase dephosphorylated lysine-rich histone, phosphorylase a, glycogen synthase, and phosphorylase kinase. It dephosphorylated both the alpha- and beta-subunit phosphates of phosphorylase kinase, with a preference for the dephosphorylation of the alpha-subunit phosphate over the beta-subunit phosphate of phosphorylase kinase. The enzyme also dephosphorylated p-nitrophenyl phosphate at alkaline pH. Phosphatase H-II is distinct from the major phosphorylase phosphatase activities in the muscle extracts. Its enzymatic properties closely resemble that of a Mr = 33,500 protein phosphatase (protein phosphatase C-II) isolated from the same tissue. However, despite their similarity of enzymatic properties, the Mr = 35,000 subunit of phosphatase H-II is physically different from phosphatase C-II as revealed by their different sizes on sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis. On trypsin treatment of the enzyme, this subunit is converted to a form which is a similar size to phosphatase C-II.  相似文献

Previous studies have shown that phosphorylase phosphatase can be isolated from rabbit liver and bovine heart as a form of Mr approximately 35,000 after an ethanol treatment of tissue extracts. This enzyme form was designated as protein phosphatase C. In the present study, reproducible methods for the isolation of two forms of protein phosphatase C from rabbit skeletal muscle to apparent homogeneity are described. Protein phosphatase C-I was obtained in yields of up to 20%, with specific activities toward phosphorylase a of 8,000-16,000 units/mg of protein. This enzyme represents the major phosphorylase phosphatase activity present in the ethanol-treated muscle extracts. The second enzyme, protein phosphatase C-II, had a much lower specific activity toward phosphorylase a (250-900 units/mg). Phosphatase C-I and phosphatase C-II had Mr = 32,000 and 33,500, respectively, as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate disc gel electrophoresis. The two enzymes displayed distinct enzymatic properties. Phosphatase C-II was associated with a more active alkaline phosphatase activity toward p-nitrophenyl phosphate than was phosphatase C-I. Phosphatase C-II activities were activated by Mn2+, whereas phosphatase C-I was inhibited. Phosphatase C-I was inhibited by rabbit skeletal muscle inhibitor 2 while phosphatase C-II was not inhibited. Both enzymes dephosphorylated glycogen synthase and phosphorylase kinase, but displayed different specificities toward the alpha- and beta-subunit phosphates of phosphorylase kinase (Ganapathi, M. K., Silberman, S. R., Paris, H., and Lee, E. Y. C. (1980) J. Biol. Chem. 246, 3213-3217). The amino acid compositions of the two proteins were similar. Peptide mapping of the two proteins showed that they are distinct proteins and do not have a precursor-proteolytic product relationship.  相似文献

A purification procedure, which included ethanol treatment as a step for dissociating the large molecular forms of type I phosphoprotein phosphatase, was employed for the studies of the alkaline phosphatase and phosphoprotein phosphatase activities in bovine brain, heart, spleen, kidney, and uterus, rabbit skeletal muscle and liver, and lobster tail muscle. The results indicate that the major phosphoprotein phosphatase (phosphorylase a as a substrate) and alkaline phosphatase (p-nitrophenyl phosphate as a substrate; Mg2+ and dithiothreitol as activators) activities in the extracts of all tissues studied were copurified as an entity of Mr = 35,000. The purified enzymes from different tissues exhibit similar physical and catalytic properties with respect to either the phosphoprotein phosphatase or the alkaline phosphatase activity. The present findings indicate that (a) the Mr = 35,000 species, which represents a catalytic entity of the large molecular forms of type I phosphoprotein phosphatase, is widespread in animal tissues, indicating that it is a multifunctional phosphatase; (b) the association of type I alkaline phosphatase activity with type I phosphoprotein phosphatase is a general phenomenon.  相似文献

A high molecular weight phosphoprotein phosphatase was purified from rabbit liver using high speed centrifugation, acid precipitation, ammonium sulfate fractionation, chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, Sepharose-histone, and Bio-Gel A-0.5m. The purified enzyme showed a single band on a nondenaturing polyacrylamide anionic disc gel which was associated with the enzyme activity. The enzyme was made up of equimolar concentrations of two subunits whose molecular weights were 58,000 (range 58,000-62,000) and 35,000 (range 35,000-38,000). Two other polypeptides (Mr 76,000 and 27,000) were also closely associated with our enzyme preparation, but their roles, if any, in phosphatase activity are not known. The optimum pH for the reaction was 7.5-8.0. Km value of phosphoprotein phosphatase for phosphorylase a was 0.10-0.12 mg/ml. Freezing and thawing of the enzyme in the presence of 0.2 M beta-mercaptoethanol caused an activation (100-140%) of phosphatase activity with a concomitant partial dissociation of the enzyme into a Mr 35,000 catalytic subunit. Divalent cations (Mg2+, Mn2+, and Co2+) and EDTA were inhibitory at concentrations higher than 1 mM. Spermine and spermidine were also found to be inhibitory at 1 mM concentrations. The enzyme was inhibited by nucleotides (ATP, ADP, AMP), PPi, Pi, and NaF; the degree of inhibition was different with each compound and was dependent on their concentrations employed in the assay. Among various types of histones examined, maximum activation of phosphoprotein phosphatase activity was observed with type III and type V histone (Sigma). Further studies with type III histone indicated that it increased both the Km for phosphorylase a and the Vmax of the dephosphorylation reaction. Purified liver phosphatase, in addition to the dephosphorylation of phosphorylase a, also catalyzed the dephosphorylation of 32P-labeled phosphorylase kinase, myosin light chain, myosin, histone III-S, and myelin basic protein. The effects of Mn2+, KCl, and histone III-S on phosphatase activity were variable depending on the substrate used.  相似文献

The alkaline phosphatases present in choriocarcinoma cells, either untreated or treated with 5-bromo-2′-deoxyuridine (BrdUrd), were purified and characterized. Three forms of phosphatase [I, IIa (or IIIa), and IIb (or IIIb)]were isolated from both the untreated and BrdUrd-treated cells. Although BrdUrd induced the synthesis of all three forms of alkaline phosphatase in these cells, the synthesis of forms IIa and IIb was, however, preferentially stimulated. The forms of phosphatase in choriocarcinoma cells resembled each other in their kinetic properties and thermal lability, but differed in their molecular weights and in their electrophoretic mobilities in nondenaturing polyacrylamide gels. All three phosphatases were inactivated by antiserum to term-placental alkaline phosphatase. The alkaline phosphatases from choriocarcinoma cells differed, however, from the enzyme from term placentas in several physicochemical properties. The phosphatases from choriocarcinoma cells had a lower Km value for p-nitrophenyl phosphate, were more sensitive to inhibition by l-leucine, levamisole, l-p-bromotetramisole, and EDTA, and were more heat-labile. Phosphatase I comigrated with term-placental alkaline phosphatase on nondenaturing polyacrylamide electrophoretic gels, but phosphatases IIa and IIb migrated more slowly. The apparent molecular weights of phosphatase forms I, IIa, and IIb were estimated by gel filtration and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis to be 115,000, 240,000, and 510,000, respectively. Although three molecular forms of alkaline phosphatase occurred in choriocarcinoma cells, the subunit molecular weight of these phosphatases appeared to be identical to each other and to the subunit of term-placental alkaline phosphatase (63,000 MW). The alkaline phosphatase in choriocarcinoma cells therefore exists in the dimeric, tetrameric, and octameric forms.  相似文献

1. Phosphatase II is a form of phosphoprotein phosphatase originally found in rat liver extract; it has a molecular weight of 160 000 by gel filtration and is highly active towards phosphorylase alpha. This phosphatase has been purified 1800-fold by using DEAE-cellulos (DE-52), aminohexyl--Sepharose-4B, protamine--Sepharose-4B and Sephadex G-200 chromatography. Throughout the purification steps, the original molecular weight and substrate specificity of phosphatase II were almost perfectly preserved. 2. The product of the final purification step migrated predominantly as a single protein band on non-denaturing gel electrophoresis. Sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electorphoresis revealed that the enzyme contains two types of subunit, alpha and beta, with molecular weights of 35 000 and 69 000, respectively. When treated with 0.2 M 2-mercaptoethanol at -20 degrees C, phosphatase II was dissociated to release the catalytically active alpha subunit. The beta subunit may be catalytically inactive but interacts with the alpha subunit so that phosphatase II becomes much less susceptible than the alpha subunit to inactivation by ATP or pyrophosphate.  相似文献

In order to obtain information of the gross-structure of glutelin, chemical and physicochemical properties of S-cyanoethyl glutelin were investigated. Glutelin remained at the origin in polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, while S-cyanoethyl glutelin migrated in the gel and resolved into two components. The ion-exchange chromatography by carboxymethyl Sephadex C-50 gave further resolution of S-cyanoethyl glutelin into one neutral component corresponding to the anodic component and two basic components corresponding to the cathodic component in polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis at neutral pH. The amino-terminal residue of the neutral component (Component I) could not be detected by the fluorodinitrobenzene method, while both the basic components (Component II and III) had only glycine as the amino-termini. On the basis of dinitrophenyl-glycine found, the minimum molecular weights of Component II and III were calculated at about 35,000 and 43,000 respectively. The relative concentration of these three components was as follows; Component I: Component II: Component III=8:1:1. These facts obviously indicate that glutelin is a very large molecule composed from these three components polymerized by disulfide linkage, Component I being the major subunit.  相似文献

The proteins of purified macroschizonts from Theileria parva, T. lawrencei, and T. taurotragi were analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The major proteins of all species had molecular weights of 120,000, 70,000, 65,000, 62,000, 55,000, 44,000, and 35,000. All further experiments were carried out with T. parva. Using 125I surface labelling it was established that proteins with molecular weights of 70,000, 50,000, and 44,000 were membrane constituents. Staphylococcus aureus protein A-mediated immune precipitation studies with 125I-labelled lysates of macroschizonts and a rabbit anti-macroschizont serum specifically recognized proteins with molecular weights of 120,000, 91,000, 70,000, 62,000, and 35,000. A small proportion of sera recovered from Theileria immune cattle specifically recognized proteins with molecular weights of 180,000 and 70,000 in macroschizont-lysates.  相似文献

The natural substrate (phosphorylase a) and two alternative ones (phosphorylated histone and a tetradecapeptide consisting of residues 5-18 of rabbit skeletal muscle phosphorylase a) were used to distinguish the modes of action of some physiologically important effectors of four different molecular forms of rabbit liver phosphorlase a phosphatases. In general, glucose, caffeine, AMP, ADP, Pi, and glucose-1-P showed substrate-directed effects for the holophosphatase forms, since they usually did not affect the activity on histone phosphate and, with one slight exception (Pi), never affected the activity on the tetradecapeptide phosphate. ADP, Pi, and glucose-1-P did affect directly the relative mass (Mr) 35,000 phosphatase, in addition to an inhibition mediated via phosphorylase a. ATP exerted both substrate- and enzyme-directed effects for the Mr 35,000 phosphatase and phosphatases 1 and 2A2, but only a substrate-directed effect for phosphatase 2A1, suggesting that the gamma-subunit of the type 2 phosphatases may prevent ATP binding to the phosphatase. Mg2+ showed substrate-directed effects for phosphatases 1, 2A1, and 2A2, and an additional enzyme-directed effect for the Mr 35,000 phosphatase form. Furthermore, Mg2+ could not abolish ATP inhibition of the tetradecapeptide phosphatase activity, but significantly overcame ATP inhibition of the phosphorylase a phosphatase activity, thus suggesting that its ability to reverse the ATP effect is by a substrate-directed mechanism. The substrate-directed effects seen for the different ligands on the different phosphatase forms strongly indicate the significance of this form of control in the regulation of phosphorylase a phosphatase activities and may serve to narrow the otherwise broad substrate specificities of the major phosphorylase a phosphatase activities in mammalian tissues: phosphatases 1 and 2A.  相似文献

Human liver acid phosphatases.   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Human liver contains three chromatographically distinct forms of non-specific acid phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.2). Acid phosphatases I, II and III have molecular weights of greater than 200 000, of 107 000, and of 13 400, respectively. Following partial purification, isoenzyme II was obtained as a single activity band, as assessed by activity staining with p-nitrophenyl phosphate and alpha-naphthyl phosphate on polyacrylamide gels run at several pH values. With 50mM p-nitrophenyl phosphate as a substrate, enzymes II and III exhibit plateaus of activity over the pH range 3 - 5 and 3.5 - 6, respectively.Acid phosphatase II is not significantly inhibited by 0.5% formaldehyde. The activity of human liver acid phosphatase II and of human prostatic acid phosphatase towards several substrates is compared. The liver enzyme, is marked contrast to the prostatic enzyme, does not hydrolyze O-phosphoryl choline.  相似文献

Measurement of Globular Protein Molecules by Electron Microscopy   总被引:9,自引:8,他引:1       下载免费PDF全文
A series of molecular species with approximately spherical shape and with molecular weights between 35,000 and 250,000 were shadowed with platinum while resting on a cleaved mica surface. They were backed, stripped from the surface, and examined by electron microscopy. Materials examined were: pepsin, liver alcohol dehydrogenase, yeast alcohol dehydrogenase, glutamic dehydrogenase, polyhedral virus protein (insect), fibrinogen substructure, alkaline phosphatase, and microsomal particles from Escherichia coli. Measurements were made of widths perpendicular to the shadowing direction and heights were deduced from shadow lengths. For those molecular species with well established molecular weights the average heights correlate very well with the diameter of the theoretical sphere but the average widths are too great by 50 to 80 A due to the lateral growth of the deposited metal. Although the distortion in shape of shadowed particles is relatively large, with standardized conditions for shadowing, it is possible to make allowance for the distortion and to obtain reasonably reliable estimates of the dimensions of spherical organic particles down to a molecular weight of about 35,000.  相似文献

The ATP.Mg-dependent type-1 protein phosphatase activating factor (FA) was identified as a protein kinase that could phosphorylate synapsin I, a neuronal protein that coats synaptic vesicles, binds to cytoskeleton and is believed to be involved in the modulation of neurotransmission. More importantly, more than 90% of the phosphates in 32P-synapsin I phosphorylated by FA could be removed by the activated ATP.Mg-dependent type-1 protein phosphatase and the synapsin I phosphatase activity was found to be strictly FA-dependent. Functional study further revealed that as a synapsin I kinase, factor FA could phosphorylate synapsin I and thereby inhibits crosslinking of synapsin I with tubulin, while as a synapsin I phosphatase activator, FA could promote the crosslinking copolymerization of synapsin I with tubulin. Taken together, the results provide initial evidence that a cyclic modulation of the crosslinking copolymerization of synapsin I with brain microtubules can be controlled by factor FA, representing an efficient cyclic cascade control mechanism for the regulation of axonal transport process during neurotransmission.  相似文献

An acid phosphatase from a heavy-metal-accumulating strain of a Citrobacter sp. was resolved into two forms on the basis of their nonbinding (phosphatase I) or binding (phosphatase II) behaviour on the cation-exchange resin SP-Sephadex C50. Both holoenzymes had a molecular mass of 103–108 kDa as determined by Superose Q-6 column chromatography in the presence of 150 mM KCl and a subunit molecular mass of 27 kDa as determined by SDS-PAGE; the enzyme was tetrameric. Both enzymes had a pI ≈ 9.0 and were immunologically cross-reactive. There were minor differences in amino acid composition and in peptide maps following tryptic digest. The pH optimum for phosphatases I and II was 5.5 and 6.25, respectively; phosphatase II alone retained activity at pH values up to 9.0. Phosphatase I was more resistant to mechanical shear, γ-irradiation, high temperature, and toxins (F and formaldehyde). Glycerol increased the thermostability of both enzymes, particularly the more thermosensitive phosphatase II. Phosphatase II had a lower K m and a lower V max for glycerol 2-phosphate hydrolysis. The production of enzyme isoforms is a phenomenon similar to that described previously for the alkaline phosphatase of Escherichia coli, where the isoforms relate to precursive and final processed forms of the enzyme. Acid phosphatase is physiologically distinct, with a role that is still obscure but that may relate to cellular stress responses.

Myosin light chain phosphatase associated with smooth muscle myosin (MAPP) was isolated from chicken gizzard. The MAPP was tightly associated with myosin and was not dissociated from myosin under the physiological ionic conditions. The phosphatase was dissociated from myosin in the presence of high MgCl2, i.e. 80 mM MgCl2. The binding site of the enzyme on the myosin molecule was the subfragment-2 region, since the enzyme did bind to the myosin rod and heavy meromyosin but not to the subfragment-1 affinity column. MAPP was purified with a heparin-Sepharose 6B column, and two activity peaks were obtained, i.e. MAPP I and MAPP II. The major activity peak, MAPP I, was further purified to homogeneity by thiophosphorylated myosin light chain-Sepharose 4B column chromatography. MAPP I was a tetramer composed of four 34-kDa subunits. The enzyme preferentially dephosphorylated the beta-subunit of phosphorylase kinase and was strongly inhibited by the heat- and acid-stable protein phosphatase inhibitor-1, whereas it was partially inhibited by the inhibitor-2. The IC50 (concentration of inhibitor giving 50% inhibition) value for the inhibition of the enzyme by okadaic acid was 70 nM which was about eight times higher than skeletal muscle type-1 and 390 times higher than type-2 protein phosphatase. These results demonstrate that the MAPP I is a type-1-like protein phosphatase, although the properties are not the same as type-I phosphatase. The properties of the myosin-associated phosphatase were distinct from the phosphatases reported previously, although some properties were similar to smooth muscle phosphatase-IV. Therefore, it is concluded that MAPP I is a novel smooth muscle protein phosphatase. Since it strongly associated with smooth muscle myosin, it is likely that MAPP I is responsible for the dephosphorylation of smooth muscle myosin in situ.  相似文献

1. Phosphoprotein phosphatases with activity towards the inhibitory subunit of troponin (troponin I), phosphorylase a and lysine-rich histone (fraction F1) have been fractionated from rat skeletal muscle by chromatography on Sephadex G-200 and polylysine-Sepharose. Six separate fractions were identified on the basis of substrate specificity and behaviour during chromatography. 2. All fractions showed similar Km values for any given protein substrate. The Km for troponin I (5 muM) was significantly lower than that previously reported. 3. Phosphatase activities towards troponin I and hosphorylase a did not show a requirement for bivalent-metal ions. Two of the fractions with only minor activity towards histone were activated by Mn2+. 4. Discontinuous polyacrylamide-gel-electrophoresis studies indicated that several of the fractions contained more than one phosphatase activity, and additionally showed that several of the activities could exist in different aggregation states. On the basis of these studies at least two phosphatases with activity only towards troponin I were identified. In addition, phosphorylase phosphatase (which has considerable activity towards troponin I) and a general phosphatase with activity towards all three substrates were found. 5. A fraction with mol.wt. of 150000 could be activated by freezing with 2-mercaptoethanol or by heating to 55 degrees C. This activation was accompanied by a decrease in mol.wt. to 25000. 6. The total amount of phosphatase with activity towards troponin I which was extracted would be sufficient to dephosphorylate all the troponin I present in skeletal muscle in approximately 10s.  相似文献

Callus calcifying cartilage alkaline phosphatase was resolved by DEAE-cellulose column chromatography into two distinct phsophatase activities. The phosphatase activity which was eluted first from the column, (phosphatase I), was active towards a variety of phosphate esters, sodium pyrophosphatase and several linear polyphosphates, while the second phosphatase activity , (phosphatase II), was active toward simple phosphate esters but not towards sodium pyrophosphate and linear oligo or polyphosphates. All the phosphate esters, sodium pyrophosphate and polyphosphates at higher concentrations were inhibitory for phosphatase I. The modulating effects of magnesium, calcium, zinc and other phosphatase modulators have been investigated. Both phosphatases from callus calcifying cartilage were found to be substrates of neuraminidase with sialic acid as the product. Besides the difference in their specificity, the phosphatases were found to be immunologically different and to have different molecular weights, strong indication that they are different enzymes.  相似文献

The phosphoprotein phosphatase(s) acting on muscle phosphorylase a was purified from rabbit liver by acid precipitation, high speed centrifugation, chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex A-50, Sephadex G-75, and Sepharose-histone. Enzyme activity was recovered in the final step as two distinct peaks tentatively referred to as phosphoprotein phosphatases I and II. Each phosphatase showed a single broad band when examined by sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis; the molecular weights derived by this method were approximately 30,500 for phosphoprotein phosphatase I and 34,000 for phosphoprotein phosphatase II. The s20, w value for each enzyme was 3.40. Using this value and values for the Stokes radii, the molecular weight for each enzyme was calculated to be 34,500. Both phosphatases, in addition to catalyzing the conversion of phosphorylase a to b, also catalyzed the dephosphorylation of glycogen synthase D, activated phosphorylase kinase, phosphorylated histone, phosphorylated casein, and the phosphorylated inhibitory component of troponin (TN-I). The relative activities of the phosphatases with respect to phosphorylase a, glycogen synthase D, histone, and casein remained essentially constant throughout the purification. The activities of both phosphatases with different substrates decreased in parallel when they were denatured by incubation at 55 degrees and 65 degrees. The Km values of phosphoprotein phosphatase I for phosphorylase a, histone, and casein were lower than the values obtained for phosphoprotein phosphatase II. With glycogen synthase D as substrate, each enzyme gave essentially the same Km value. Utilizing either enzyme, it was found that activity toward a given substrate was inhibited competitively by each of the alternative substrates. The results suggest that phosphoprotein phosphatases I and II are each active toward all of the substrates tested.  相似文献

The type-1 protein phosphatase associated with hepatic microsomes has been distinguished from the glycogen-bound enzyme in five ways. (1) The phosphorylase phosphatase/synthase phosphatase activity ratio of the microsomal enzyme (measured using muscle phosphorylase a and glycogen synthase (labelled in sites-3) as substrates) was 50-fold higher than that of the glycogen-bound enzyme. (2) The microsomal enzyme had a greater sensitivity to inhibitors-1 and 2. (3) Release of the catalytic subunit from the microsomal type-1 phosphatase by tryptic digestion was accompanied by a 2-fold increase in synthase phosphatase activity, whereas release of the catalytic subunit from the glycogen-bound enzyme decreased synthase phosphatase activity by 60%. (4) 95% of the synthase phosphatase activity was released from the microsomes with 0.3 M NaCl, whereas little activity could be released from the glycogen fraction with salt. (5) The type-1 phosphatase separated from glycogen by anion-exchange chromatography could be rebound to glycogen, whereas the microsomal enzyme (separated from the microsomes by the same procedure, or by extraction with NaCl) could not. These findings indicate that the synthase phosphatase activity of the microsomal enzyme is not explained by contamination with glycogen-bound enzyme. The microsomal and glycogen-associated enzymes may contain a common catalytic subunit complexed to microsomal and glycogen-binding subunits, respectively. Thiophosphorylase a was a potent inhibitor of the dephosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6, HMG-CoA reductase and glycogen synthase, by the glycogen-associated type-1 protein phosphatase. By contrast, thiophosphorylase a did not inhibit the dephosphorylation of S6 or HMG-CoA reductase by the microsomal enzyme, although the dephosphorylation of glycogen synthase was inhibited. The I50 for inhibition of synthase phosphatase activity by thiophosphorylase a catalysed by either the glycogen-associated or microsomal type-1 phosphatases, or for inhibition of S6 phosphatase activity catalysed by the glycogen-associated enzyme, was decreased 20-fold to 5-10 nM in the presence of glycogen. The results suggest that the physiologically relevant inhibitor of the glycogen-associated type-1 phosphatase is the phosphorylase a-glycogen complex, and that inhibition of the microsomal type-1 phosphatase by phosphorylase a is unlikely to play a role in the hormonal control of cholesterol or protein synthesis. Protein phosphatase-1 appears to be the principal S6 phosphatase in mammalian liver acting on the serine residues phosphorylated by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase.  相似文献

Four phosphoprotein phosphatases, with the ability to act upon hydroxymethylglutaryl (HMG)-CoA reductase, phosphorylase, and glycogen synthase have been purified from rat liver cytosol through a process that involves DEAE-cellulose, aminohexyl-Sepharose-4B, and Bio-Gel A 1.5 m chromatographies. Protein phosphatase II (Mr 180,000) was the major enzyme (68%) with a very broad substrate specificity, showing similar activity toward the three substrates. Phosphatases I1 (Mr 180,000) and I3 (Mr 250,000) accounted for only 12 and 15% of the total activity, respectively, and they were also able to dephosphorylate the three substrates. In contrast, phosphatase I2 (Mr 200,000) showed only phosphorylase phosphatase activity with insignificant dephosphorylating capacity toward HMG-CoA reductase and glycogen synthase. Upon ethanol treatment at room temperature, the Mr of all phosphatases changed; protein phosphatases I2, I3, and II were brought to an Mr of 35,000, while phosphatase I1 was reduced to an Mr of 69,000. Glycogen synthase phosphatase activity was decreased in all four phosphatases. There was also a decrease in phosphatase I1 activity toward HMG-CoA reductase and phosphorylase as substrates. The HMG-CoA reductase phosphatase and phosphorylase phosphatase activities of phosphatases I2, I3, and II were increased after ethanol treatment. Each protein phosphatase showed a different optimum pH, which changed depending on the substrate. The four phosphatases increased their activity in the presence of Mn2+ and Mg2+. In general, Mn2+ was a better activator than Mg2+, and phosphatase I1 showed a stronger dependency on these cations than any other phosphatase. Phosphorylase was a competitive substrate in the HMG-CoA reductase phosphatase and glycogen synthase phosphatase reactions of protein phosphatases I1, I3, and II. HMG-CoA reductase was also able to compete with phosphorylase and glycogen synthase for phosphatase activity. Glycogen synthase phosphatase activity presented less inhibition in the low-Mr forms. A comparison has been made with other protein phosphatases previously reported in the literature.  相似文献
