The cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (EC 3.4.16) activities of a rat liver particulate fraction were analyzed after solubilization by detergent or by freeze-thawing. Analysis of the two extracts by DEAE-cellulose chromatography revealed that they contain different complements of phosphodiesterase activities. The detergent-solubilized extract contained a cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase, a low affinity cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase whose hydrolysis of cyclic AMP was activated by cyclic GMP and a high affinity cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase. The freeze-thaw extract contained a cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase and two high affinity cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase, but no low affinity cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase. The cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activities from the freeze-thaw extract and from the detergent extract all had negatively cooperative kinetics. One of the cyclic AMP phosphodiesterases from the freeze-thaw extract (form A) was insensitive to inhibition by cyclic GMP; the other freeze-thaw solubilized cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase (form B) and the detergent-solubilized cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase were strongly inhibited by cyclic GMP. The B enzyme appeared to be converted into the A enzyme when the particulate fraction was stored for prolonged periods at -20 degrees C. The B form was purified extensively, using DEAE-cellulose, a guanine-Sepharose column and gel filtration. The enzyme retained its negatively cooperative kinetics and high affinity for both cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP throughout the purification, although catalytic activity was always much greater for cyclic AMP. Rabbit antiserum was raised against the purified B enzyme and tested via a precipitin reaction against other forms of phosphodiesterase. The antiserum cross-reacted with the A enzyme and the detergent-solubilized cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase from rat liver. It did not react with the calmodulin-activated cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase of rat brain, the soluble low affinity cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase of rat liver or a commercial phosphodiesterase preparation from bovine heart. These results suggest a possible interrelationship between the high affinity cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase of rat liver. 相似文献

The effect of the endogenous protein activator on the kinetic characteristics of a highly purified, activator-deficient rat brain phosphodiesterase (EC 3.1.4.-) of a highly purified, activator-deficient rat brain phosphodiesterase (EC 3.1.4-) was studied. This enzyme preparation has only a high Km for cyclic AMP and a low Km for cyclic GMP. In the presence of 20 muM Ca2+, saturating concentrations of the activator decreased the Km of this enzyme for cyclic AMP from 350 muM to about 80 muM, without changing the V. The phosphodiesterase activator did not change the Km of phosphodiesterase for cyclic GMP; however, amoderate increase of V was seen. The activator lacks species specificity; the activator isolated from the bullfrog sympathetic chain produced the same qualitative and comparable quantitative changes in the kinetic properties of the purified rat brain phosphodiesterase. Cyclic GMP is a potent competitive inhibitor of the phosphodiesterase activation by the activator (Ki=1.8 muM), using cyclic AMP as a substrate. Cyclic AMP inhibits slightly the hydrolysis of cyclic GMP by phosphodiesterase in the presence of activator (Ki=155 muM) only. 相似文献

Approximatively 2–8% of the cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase activity of a crude 1000 g supernatant from rat heart was associated with the washed 105,000 g pellet fraction. This activity exhibited biphasic Lineweaver-Burk plots over a large range of cyclic nucleotides concentrations. Concave-Bownward plots were obtained with cyclic AMP as the assay substrate, while cyclic GMP gave rise to concave-upward plots. Treatment of this particulate fraction by freezing and thawing and then with 2% Lubrol PX released the major part of phosphodiesterase activity into the supernatant (70 and 90% for cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase activities respectively). Isoelectric focusing of the solubilized enzyme revealed a single peak of phosphodiesterase activity. While the Lineweaver-Burk plots of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity were not markedly modified by detergent treatment kinetic plots of cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase activity underwent a drastic transformation during the overall solubilization procedure. The substantial increase in the cyclic GMP rate of hydrolysis observed at low substrate level might explain the difference in the apparent yield of solubilization between cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase activities. 相似文献

The cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (3':5'-cyclic nucleotide 5'-nucleotidohydrolase, EC 3.1.4.17) systems of many tissues show multiple physical and kinetic forms. In contrast, the soluble rat uterine phosphodiesterase exists as a single enzyme form with non-linear Lineweaver-Burk kinetics for cyclic AMP (app. Km of approx. 3 and 20 microM) and linear kinetics for cyclic GMP (app. Km of approx. 3 microM) since the two hydrolytic activities are not separated by a variety of techniques. In uterine cytosolic fractions, cyclic AMP is a non-competitive inhibitor of cyclic GMP hydrolysis (Ki approx. 32 microM). Also, cyclic GMP is a non-competitive inhibitor of cyclic AMP hydrolysis (Ki approx 16 microM) at low cyclic GMP/cyclic AMP substrate ratios. However, cyclic GMP acts as a competitive inhibitor of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase (Ki approx 34 microM) at high cyclic GMP/cyclic AMP substrate ratios. When a single hydrolytic form of uterine phosphodiesterase, separated initially by DEAE anion-exchange chromatography, is treated with trypsin (0.5 microgram/ml for 2 min) and rechromatographed on DEAE-Sephacel, two major forms of phosphodiesterase are revealed. One form elutes at 0.3 M NaOAc- and displays anomalous kinetics for cyclic AMP hydrolysis (app. Km of 2 and 20 microM) and linear kinetics for cyclic GMP (app. Km approx. 5 microM), kinetic profiles which are similar to those of the uterine cytosolic preparations. A second form of phosphodiesterase elutes at 0.6 M NaOAc- and displays a higher apparent affinity for cyclic AMP (app. Km approx. 1.5 mu) without appreciable cyclic GMP hydrolytic activity. These data provide kinetic and structural evidence that uterine phosphodiesterase contains distinct catalytic sites for cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP. Moreover, they provide further documentation that the multiple forms of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase in mammalian tissues may be conversions from a single enzyme species. 相似文献

DEAE-cellulose chromatography demonstrated that the levels of the individual cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase were unchanged in the aorta and heart of the spontaneously hypertensive rat as compared with the normotensive control rat. Three peaks of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase activity were observed in both heart and aorta. Peak I enzyme hydrolyzed predominantly cyclic GMP while peak III enzyme hydrolyzed predominantly cyclic AMP. Peak II enzyme was less specific but hydrolyzed more cyclic GMP than cyclic AMP The levels of phosphodiesterase activator in aorta and the responsiveness of peaks I and II from aorta and heart to activator were unchanged in the hypertensive rat. Therefore the decrease in cyclic AMP levels observed by others in aorta and heart of the spontaneously hypertensive rat were probably not due to altered phosphodiesterase activity. 相似文献

Changes in tissue levels of the low Km phosphodiesterase for adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) and guanosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclc GMP) in the lung, liver, heart and brain from developing guinea pigs were studied. It was found that the contents of the soluble (cytosol) phosphodiesterase for both cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP were higher in the lung from the fetus than from the neonate and adult. The ontogenetic changes seen in the liver were qualitatively similar to thos in the lung with respect to cyclic GMP hydrolysis, while a reversed pattern of change was noted in the brain. The level of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase was highest in the fetal heart. Throughout the fetal stage, the levels of the enzyme for cyclic GMP hydrolysis were higher than those for cyclic AMP in the lung. At or around birth, a reversal in the relative levels of the two enzymes took place; two days after birth, the level of the enzyme for cyclic AMP was 2-3times higher than thos for cyclic GMP. Kinetic analysis showed that phohphodiesterases from extracts of the lung from all developmental stages of guinea pigs had the same Km (2.6 muM) for cyclic AMP and the same Km (6.6 muM) for cyclic GMP. The relative values of V, based on assays using the same amount of enzyme protein, in decreasing order, were fetus greater than neonate greater than adult. The present findings suggest that metabolism of the two cyclic nucleotides may be closely related to developmental processes of the tissues. Moreover, the actions involving cyclic GMP may be more predominent in the fetal lung and adult brain. 相似文献

Cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity in a particulate fraction of rat striatum is stimulated two fold by cyclic GMP. An investigation of the effects of various purine compounds on basal and cyclic GMP-stimulated cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity as measured at a low substrate concentration (3 uM) was carried out. Adenosine inhibits cyclic GMP-stimulated cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity with an IC50 of 400 uM while inhibiting basal cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity with an IC50 of 2.4 mM. Adenosine blocks cyclic GMP stimulation of cyclic AMP hydrolysis with an IC50 of 80 uM. Inosine and hypoxanthine have a similar profile of action but are less effective with IC50's of 200 and 400 uM respectively on cyclic GMP stimulation of phosphodiesterase activity and only 20–40% inhibition of basal enzyme activity up to 2.4 mM. Adenine, guanosine and guanine block cyclic GMP stimulation of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity with IC50's of 100–200 uM. Classical phosphodiesterase inhibitors of the alkylxanthine type are also selective for the stimulated enzyme with IC50's of 200 and 25 uM for theophylline and IBMX on cyclic GMP-stimulated cyclic AMP hydrolysis and IC50's of 500 and 50 uM respectively on basal phosphodiesterase activity. Theophylline and IBMX are potent inhibitors of cyclic GMP stimulation of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity with IC50's of 50 and 5 uM. These findings suggest a role for physiologically available purine compounds and alkylxanthines in the regulation of cyclic nucleotide metabolism through interaction with cyclic GMP stimulation of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity. 相似文献

The effect of administration of D-Trp6-Luteinizing Hormone-Releasing Hormone (LH-RH) on synthesis and degradation of cyclic nucleotides was studied in the rat. There were no significant changes in the rate of synthesis and degradation of cyclic AMP in the ovary, testis and pituitary gland of D-Trp6-LH-RH-treated rats as compared to controls. On the other hand, the levels of cyclic GMP and activity of guanylate cyclase were significantly higher in the ovary and testis as well as in the pituitary gland of animals which received the analog. The rate of hydrolysis of cyclic GMP was unchanged by the administration of D-Trp6-LH-RH. Interestingly, the cyclic CMP phosphodiesterase seemed to be activated in animals treated with D-Trp6-LH-RH. 相似文献

The effects of sodium alpha-tocopherol phosphate (TPNa), a new vitamin E derivative, on cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases from a soluble supernatant fraction of rat liver were investigated. TPNa produced a dose-dependent increase in cyclic AMP hydrolysis at a low substrate concentration (1 muM cyclic AMP), whereas the compound inhibited the hydrolytic activity at a high substrate level (100 muM cyclic AMP). Cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase activity was suppressed by TPNa regardless of the substrate concentration. The addition of TPNa did not change the apparent Km value (50 muM) of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase at low substrate level (less than 5 muM). In contrast, at higher substrate concentration, the concave downward curve observed in a Lineweaver-Burk plot became straight in the presence of TPNa. Low concentrations of cyclic GMP, which are known to activate cyclic AMP hydrolysis, showed an additive effect on cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase only when a submaximal concentration of cyclic GMP was present in addition to TPNa. These and other data suggest that TPNa modifies cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase in all allosteric fashion. 相似文献

The soluble supernatant fraction of bovine heart homogenates may be fractionated on a DEAE cellulose column into two cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (EC 3.1.4.-):PI and PII phosphodiesterases, in the order of emergence from the column. In the presence of free Ca2+, the PI enzyme may be activated several fold by the protein activator which was discovered by Cheung((1971) J. Biol. Chem. 246, 2859-2869). The PII enzyme is refractory to this activator, and is not inhibited by the Ca2+ chelating agent, ethylene glycol bis (beta-aminoethyl ether)-N, N'-tetraacetate (EGTA). The activated activity of PI phosphodiesterase may be further stimulated by imidazole or NH+4, and inhibited by high concentrations of Mg2+. These reagents have no significant effect on either the PII enzyme or the basal activity of PI phosphodiesterase. Although both forms of phosphodiesterase can hydrolyze either cyclic AMP or cyclic GMP, they exhibit different relative affinities towards these two cyclic nucleotides. The PI enzyme appears to have much higher affinities toward cyclic GMP than cyclic AMP. Km values for cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP are respectively 1.7 and 0.33 mM for the non-activated PI phosphodiesterase; and 0.2 and 0.007 mM for the activated enzyme. Each cyclic nucleotide acts as a competitive inhibitor for the other with Ki values similar to the respective Km values. In contrast with PI phosphodiesterase, PII phosphodiesterase exhibits similar affinity toward cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP. The apparent Km values of cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP for the PII enzyme are approx. 0.05 and 0.03 mM, respectively. The kinetic plot with respect to cyclic GMP shows positive cooperativity. Each cyclic nucleotide acts as a non-competitive inhibitor for the other nucleotide. These kinetic properties of PI and PII phosphodiesterase of bovine heart are very similar to those of rat liver cyclic GMP and high Km cyclic AMP phosphodiesterases, respectively (Russel, Terasaki and Appleman, (1973) J. Biol. Chem. 248, 1334). 相似文献

Separation of multiple forms of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase from the soluble supernatant fraction of rat neostriatum by isoelectric focusing yielded five separate peaks of cyclic nucleotide hydrolysing activity. Each separated enzyme form displayed a complex kinetic pattern for the hydrolysis of both cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP, and there were two apparent Km's for each nucleotide. At 1 microM substrate concentration, four enzyme forms exhibited higher activity with cyclic AMP than with cyclic GMP, while one form yielded higher activity with cyclic GMP than with cyclic AMP. Cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP were both capable of almost complete inhibition of the hydrolysis of the other nucleotide in all the peaks separated by isoelectric focusing; the IC50's for this interaction correlated well with the relative rates of hydrolysis of each nucleotide in each peak. The ratio of activity at 1 microM substrate concentration for the five enzyme forms separated by isoelectric focusing was 10:10:5:15:1 for cyclic AMP hydrolysis; and 6:6:4:8:2 for cyclic GMP hydrolysis; and the isoelectric points of the five peaks were 4.3, 4.45, 4.7, 4.85, and 5.5, respectively. Known phosphodiesterase inhibitors did not preferentially inhibit any of the separated forms of activity for either cyclic AMP or cyclic GMP hydrolysis, at either high (100 microM) or low (1 microM) substrate concentrations. Preliminary examination of the subcellular distribution of the different forms of enzyme activity indicated a different degree of attachment of the various forms to particulate tissue components. Isoelectric focusing of the soluble supernatant of rat cerebellum gave rise to a slightly different pattern of isoelectric forms from the neostriatum, indicating a different cellular distribution of the isoelectric forms of PDE in rat brain. Polyacrylamide disc gel electrophoresis of the soluble supernatant of rat neostriatum also generated a characteristic pattern of five separate peaks of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase activity, each of which hydrolysed both cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of single enzyme forms previously separated by isoelectric focusing gave single peaks, with a marked correspondence between the enzyme forms produced by isoelectric focusing and those produced by gel electrophoresis, suggesting that both protein separation procedures were isolating the same enzyme forms. The results indicate the existence of multiple isoelectric forms of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase in the soluble supernatant fraction of rat neostriatum, all of which exhibit similar properties. In this tissue a single kinetic form of this enzyme appears to exist displaying complex kinetic behaviour indicative of negative cooperativity and hydrolysing both cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP, with varying affinities. 相似文献

Insulin-dependent and insulin-independent low Km cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase from rat adipose tissue 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Chromatographic analysis of a soluble extract of rat adipose tissue on DEAE-Sephacel resolves four distinct peaks of 3':5'-nucleotide phosphodiesterase (EC 3.1.4.17) activity. Kinetic investigation indicates that two of these fractions have a high affinity for cyclic AMP and show negative cooperative kinetic behavior at high substrate concentration. They differ in the degree of inhibition by cyclic GMP and in their response to insulin. If rat epididymal fat pads are incubated with insulin prior to homogenization, only one of the low Km cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase forms is stimulated. 相似文献

Chemotactic stimulation of vegetative or aggregative Dictyostelium discoideum cells induced a transient elevation of cyclic GMP levels. The addition of chemoattractants to postvegetative cells by pulsing induced phosphodiesterase activity. The following lines of evidence suggest a messenger function for cyclic GMP in the induction of phosphodiesterase: (i) Folic acid and cyclic AMP increased cyclic GMP levels and induced phosphodiesterase activity. (ii) Cyclic AMP induced both cyclic GMP accumulation and phosphodiesterase activity by binding to a rate receptor. (iii) The effects of chemical modification of cyclic AMP or folic acid on cyclic GMP accumulation and phosphodiesterase induction were closely correlated. (iv) A close correlation existed between the increase of cyclic GMP levels and the amount of phosphodiesterase induced, independent of the type of chemoattractant by which this cyclic GMP accumulation was produced. (v) Computer simulation of cyclic GMP binding to intracellular cyclic GMP-binding proteins indicates that half-maximal occupation by cyclic GMP required the same chemoattractant concentration as did half-maximal phosphodiesterase induction. 相似文献

Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase activity towards cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP was studied in extracts of rat islets of Langerhans. Biphasic Eadie plots [Eadie (1942) J. Biol. Chem. 146, 85-93] were obtained with either substrate suggesting the presence of both 'high'- and 'low'-Km components. The apparent Km values were 6.2 +/- 0.5 (n = 8) microM and 103.4 +/- 13.5 (6) microM for cyclic AMP and 3.6 +/- 0.3 (12) microM and 61.4 +/- 7.5 (13) microM for cyclic GMP. With cyclic AMP as substrate, phosphodeisterase activity was increased by calmodulin and Ca2+ and decreased by trifluoperazine, a specific inhibitor of calmodulin. With cyclic GMP as substrate, phosphodiesterase activity was decreased by omission of Ca2+ or addition of trifluoperazine. Addition of exogenous calmodulin had no effect on activity. The data suggest that Ca2+ may influence the islet content of cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP via effects on calmodulin-dependent cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase(s). 相似文献

Intratesticular injection of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and F2 alpha (PGF2 alpha) caused stimulation of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity in the testis of immature rats. PGE2 at a dose of 10 microgram per testis was maximally effective 2 hours after the injection. Dibutyryl cyclic AMP (cAMP) and 1 methyl, 3-isobutyl xanthine (MIX), a phosphodiesterase inhibitor, also stimulated ODC activity. Simultaneous injection of PGE2 and FSH or LH caused additional stimulation of ODC activity. Similarly injection of PGE2 in addition to cAMP or MIX also caused increased stimulation of ODC. Indomethacin (IM, 60 microgram/testis) inhibited LH, FSH or cAMP induced ODC activity. However, IM at the same dose inhibited the synthesis of total proteins. These results suggest that PGE2 and PGF2 alpha stimulate the activity of ODC. The action of prostaglandins may be independent of the action of gonadotropic hormones. cAMP appears to mediate the action of prostaglandins in the testis of rat. 相似文献

Adrenalectomy increased guanyl cyclase and cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase activities in liver and other rat tissues. Liver guanyl cyclase activities from adrenalectomized rats were increased above those of normal controls according to kinetic analysis, gel filtration, ion-exchange chromatography, discontinuous sucrose gradient fractionation, sulfhydryl inhibition, and secretin activation. The effects of adrenal insufficiency on hepatic guanyl cyclase and cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase were prevented by cortisone acetate administration. Immunoassay of liver and skeletal muscle cyclic GMP after adrenalectomy showed markedly decreased levels in liver, but increased levels in skeletal muscle. In liver and other tissues, basal adenyl cyclase and cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activities were unaffected by adrenalectomy. Hepatic levels of cyclic AMP were also unchanged by adrenalectomy. Hypophysectomy raised guanyl cyclase activity in liver but had no effect on liver cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase activity. These alterations are discussed in relation to possible glucocorticoid regulation of cyclic GMP metabolism. 相似文献

Phosphodiesterase activities for adenosine and guanosine 3':5'-monophosphates (cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP) were demonstrated in particulate and soluble fractions of rat anterior pituitary gland. Both fractions contained higher activity for cyclic GMP hydrolysis than that for cyclic AMP hydrolysis when these activities were assayed at subsaturating substrate concentrations. Addition of protein activator and CaCl2 to either whole homogenate, particulate or supernatant fraction stimulated both cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP phosphadiesterase activities. Almost 80% of cyclic AMP and 90% of cyclic GMP hydrolyzing activities were localized in soluble fraction. Particulate-bound cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase activity was completely solubilized with 1% Triton X-100. Detergent-dispersed particulate and soluble enzymes were compared with respect to Ca2+ and activator requirements and gel filtration profiles. Particulate, soluble and partially purified phosphodiesterase activities were also characterized in relation to divalent cation requirements, kinetic behavior and effects of Ca2+, activator and ethyleneglycol-bis-(2-aminoethyl)-N,N'-tetraacetic acid. Gel filtration of either sonicated whole homogenate or the 10500 X g supernatant fraction showed a single peak of activity, which hydrolyzed both cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP and was dependent upon Ca2+ and activator for maximum activity. Partially purified enzyme was inhibited by 1-methyl-3-isobutylxanthine and papaverine with the concentration of inhibitor giving 50% inhibition at 0.4 muM substrate being 20 muM and 24 muM for cyclic AMP and 7 muM and 10 muM for cyclic GMP, respectively. Theophylline, caffeine and theobromine were less effective. The rat anterior pituitary also contained a protein activator which stimulated both pituitary cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase(s) as well as activator-deficient brain cyclic GMP and cyclic AMP phosphodiesterases. Chromatography of the sonicated pituitary extract on DEAE-cellulose column chromatography resolved the phosphodiesterase into two fractions. Both enzyme fractions hydrolyzed cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP and had comparable apparent Km values for the two nucleotides. Hydrolysis of cyclic GMP and cyclic AMP by fraction II enzyme was stimulated 6--7-fold by both pituitary and brain activator in the presence of micromolar concentrations of Ca2+. 相似文献

A high-speed supernatant of rat liver extract displayed multiple forms of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (EC 3.1.4.17). One of the forms catalyzed the hydrolysis of cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP, with approximately comparable facility. One salient feature of the enzyme is that at micromolar concentrations, cyclic GMP stimulated the hydrolysis of cyclic AMP, but not vice versa. Another is that the activity of phosphodiesterase varied as a function of enzyme concentration in the assayed system: the enzyme activity was higher at low than at high enzyme concentrations. A concentrated enzyme was not stimulated by cyclic GMP but was stimulated by cyclic GMP upon dilution of the enzyme. Conversely, stimulation of the enzyme by cyclic GMP could be reversed by increasing the enzyme concentration. The cyclic GMP-stimulated cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase was partially purified by a continuous sucrose density gradient. The apparent change of phosphodiesterase activity as a function of enzyme concentration was also observed after partial purification by the sucrose density gradient. High enzyme concentrations favored the aggregated form of phosphodiesterase, whereas low concentrations favored the dissociated form. Dilution of the enzyme shifted the equilibrium toward the dissociated form, which presumably exposed the cyclic GMP regulatory site on the enzyme molecule. 相似文献

We have examined the activity of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase, cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase and the protein activator of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase in various anatomic and subcellular fractions of the bovine eye. Cyclic GMP hydrolysis was 1.6--12 times faster than hydrolysis of cyclic AMP in the subcellular fractions of the retina and in the precipitate of the rod outer segment. An opposite pattern was seen in the bovine lens, where the hyrolysis of cyclic AMP occurred 17 and 169 times faster than that of cyclic GMP in the supernatant and precipitate of lens, respectively. The activity of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase was not affected by ethylene-glycol bis(beta-aminoethylether)-N,N'-tetraacetic acid in any fractions except in the retinal supernatant, suggesting that the phosphodiesterase exists primarily as a Ca2+-independent, activator-independent form. However, the protein activator of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase existed in all fractions examine. A complex kinetic patternwas observed for both cyclic AMP and cyllic GMP hydrolysis by the 105000 times g lens supernatant. The Michaelis constants for both cyclic AMP (1.3-10(-6) and 9.I-10(-6) M) and cyclic GMP (1.04-10(6) AND 1.22 10(-5) M) appeared to be similar. 相似文献

Catalytic and regulatory properties of the major form of cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase (3':5'-cyclic-GMP 5'-nucleotidohydrolase, EC 3.1.4.35) from rat lung were studied. The enzyme partially purified by a DEAE-Sepharose chromatography displayed a much higher affinity toward cyclic GMP than toward cyclic AMP, the apparent Km values being 5.7 microM and 482 microM for the guanylic and the adenylic cyclic nucleotide, respectively. In contrast, the V value for cyclic AMP was about 3-times higher than the V value for cyclic GMP. Linear double reciprocal plots of initial velocity were observed with each cyclic nucleotide. From 10(-8) to 3.3 X 10(-6) M, cyclic GMP did not change the hydrolysis of 1 or 10 microM cyclic [3H]AMP, while it became inhibitory at higher concentrations. In contrast with a calmodulin-sensitive phosphodiesterase prepared from rat brain, the lung enzyme was not stimulated by a heat-stable Ca2+-dependent factor from rat lung or by rat brain calmodulin or by lipids including fatty acids and lysophosphatidylcholine. Various unsaturated 18- and 20-carbon fatty acids inhibited at varying degrees the cyclic GMP phosphodiesterase from rat lung. The inhibitory potency increased with the number of double bonds in the hydrocarbon chain. In contrast, the methyl esters of the unsaturated fatty acids and the saturated fatty acids of variable hydrocarbon chain lengths had no appreciable effects. A linear Hill plot of phosphodiesterase inhibition with a slope of unity was obtained with arachidonic acid up to 30 microM, suggesting only one type of inhibitory site. In this range of concentrations the inhibition was entirely reversible. Kinetics analysis demonstrated that up to 30 microM arachidonic acid was a purely competitive inhibitor with an apparent Ki of 20 microM. Over 30 microM, the Hill coefficient increased progressively, indicating the binding to other inhibitory sites, while the reversibility disappeared. 相似文献
