A soluble phospholipase C from rat liver was purified to homogeneity using phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) as substrate. After ammonium sulfate fractionation, the purification involved chromatography on phosphocellulose, DEAE-Sepharose CL-6B, hydroxylapatite, Reactive Blue 2 dye-linked agarose, and Mono S cation exchanger. Under the conditions of the assay, the pure enzyme had a specific activity of 407 mumol/mg protein/min. It migrated as a single band with a molecular mass of 87 kDa on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The water-soluble product formed during the hydrolysis of PIP2 by the purified enzyme was inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate. The enzyme shows one-half of maximum velocity at 2 microM Ca2+ with PIP2 as substrate. Between 0 and 100 microM Ca2+, the enzyme shows approximately the same activity with phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PIP) as it does with PIP2, and very low activity with phosphatidylinositol. The enzyme is activated by low concentrations of basic proteins; for example, with PIP2 as substrate, 1 microgram/ml histone activates the enzyme 3.6-fold. The enzyme shows an almost absolute requirement for monovalent salts which can be met by different alkali metal halides. A second, minor peak of PIP2-hydrolyzing phospholipase C activity was resolved during chromatography of the enzyme on hydroxylapatite. The substrate specificity suggests that PIP and PIP2 are normal substrates of this enzyme. Under physiological conditions of activation, the enzyme may therefore generate inositol 1,4-bisphosphate and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate in amounts determined by the ratio of PIP and PIP2 present in the cellular membranes.  相似文献

The Ca2+ requirement for lipid hydrolysis catalyzed by phospholipase A2 from Agkistrodon piscivorus piscivorus (App-D49) and porcine pancreas has been examined using small, unilamellar vesicles of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC SUV). Hydrolysis was affected by product inhibition even at early times, and the extent of this inhibition depended on the concentration of divalent cations. The Ca2+ requirement for half-maximal rates of hydrolysis reflected, in part, this non-catalytic role of divalent cations. The presence of 10 mM Mg2+, a cation which does not support catalysis, reduced the Ca2+ required for half-maximal rates of hydrolysis from millimolar concentrations to 40 microM for App-D49. Since the dissociation constant of the enzyme for Ca2+ in solution is 2 mM, these results indicate a change in the interaction of the enzyme with Ca2+ under catalytic conditions. The kinetic dissociation constant of Ca2+ for the pancreatic enzyme was 20 microM which is substantially lower than the dissociation constant in solution, 0.35 mM. The similarity of apparent kinetic dissociation constants for these enzymes suggests that structurally similar features determine the affinity for Ca2+ under catalytic conditions. Evidence is presented that the affinity of phospholipase A2 for Ca2+ changes subsequent to the initial interaction of the enzyme with the substrate interface. However, the apparent Michaelis constant, KMapp, for App-D49, 0.03-0.06 mM, is independent of [Ca2+] and is about the same as the equilibrium dissociation constant for DPPC SUV, 0.14 mM. We thus suggest that KMapp is a steady-state constant.  相似文献

Polynucleotide kinase (EC 2.7.1.78) has been purified from rat testes, and an approximately 2000-fold purification was obtained. The purified enzyme had an Mr of 38000 +/- 3800. The enzyme phosphorylated micrococcal nuclease-treated calf thymus DNA and (dT)10 while 5'-HO-tRNA was a very poor substrate. A certain degree of specificity towards purine-containing 5'-HO-nucleotides was observed. The polynucleotide kinase had an absolute requirement for a divalent cation. Both Mg2+ and Mn2+ could be used, but 10 mM MgCl2 gave optimal activity. The monovalent cations Na+, K+ and NH4+ all stimulated enzyme activity, and the optimal concentration was 0.1 M. The enzyme was inhibited by inorganic phosphate, pyrophosphate and sulphate. A 50% inhibition was obtained with 20, 0.3 and 2 mM, respectively. At 2 mM MgCl2, 1 mM spermine enhanced the enzyme activity 3-times. The apparent KATP was estimated to be 36 microM and KHO-DNA was found to be 2 microM.  相似文献

The pyruvate kinase (ATP: pyruvate 2-O-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.40) from Streptococcus lactis C10 had an obligatory requirement for both a monovalent cation and divalent cation. NH+4 and K+ activated the enzyme in a sigmoidal manner (nH =1.55) at similar concentrations, whereas Na+ and Li+ could only weakly activate the enzyme. Of eight divalent cations studied, only three (Co2+, Mg2+ and Mn2+) activated the enzyme. The remaining five divalent cations (Cu2+, Zn2+, Ca2+, Ni2+ and Ba2+) inhibited the Mg2+ activated enzyme to varying degrees. (Cu2+ completely inhibited activity at 0.1 mM while Ba2+, the least potent inhibitor, caused 50% inhibition at 3.2 mM). In the presence of 1 mM fructose 1,6-diphosphate (Fru-1,6-P2) the enzyme showed a different kinetic response to each of the three activating divalent cations. For Co2+, Mn2+ and Mg2+ the Hill interaction coefficients (nH) were 1.6, 1.7 and 2.3 respectively and the respective divalent cation concentrations required for 50% maximum activity were 0.9, 0.46 and 0.9 mM. Only with Mn2+ as the divalent cation was there significatn activity in the absence of Fru-1,6-P2. When Mn2+ replaced Mg2+, the Fru-1,6-P2 activation changed from sigmoidal (nH = 2.0) to hyperbolic (nH = 1.0) kinetics and the Fru-1,6-P2 concentration required for 50% maximum activity decreased from 0.35 to 0.015 mM. The cooperativity of phosphoenolpyruvate binding increased (nH 1.2 to 1.8) and the value of the phosphoenolpyruvate concentration giving half maximal velocity decreased (0.18 to 0.015 mM phosphoenolyruvate) when Mg2+ was replaced by Mn2+ in the presence of 1 mM Fru-1,6-P2. The kinetic response to ADP was not altered significantly when Mn2+ was substituted for Mg2+. The effects of pH on the binding of phosphoenolpyruvate and Fru-1,6-P2 were different depending on whether Mg2+ or Mn2+ was the divalent cation.  相似文献

ATP and the divalent cations Mg2+ and Ca2+ regulated K+ stimulation of the Ca2+-transport ATPase of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles. Millimolar concentrations of total ATP increased the K+-stimulated ATPase activity of the Ca2+ pump by two mechanisms. First, ATP chelated free Mg2+ and, at low ionized Mg2+ concentrations, K+ was shown to be a potent activator of ATP hydrolysis. In the absence of K+ ionized Mg2+ activated the enzyme half-maximally at approximately 1 mM, whereas in the presence of K+ the concentration of ionized Mg2+ required for half-maximal activation was reduced at least 20-fold. Second MgATP apparently interacted directly with the enzyme at a low affinity nucleotide site to facilitate K+-stimulation. With a saturating concentration of ionized Mg2+, stimulation by K+ was 2-fold, but only when the MgATP concentration was greater than 2 mM. Hill plots showed that K+ increased the concentration of MgATP required for half-maximal enzymic activation approx. 3-fold. Activation of K+-stimulated ATPase activity by Ca2+ was maximal at an ionized Ca2+ concentration of approx. 1 microM. At very high concentrations of either Ca2+ or Mg2+, basal Ca2+-dependent ATPase activity persisted, but the enzymic response to K+ was completely inhibited. The results provide further evidence that the Ca2+-transport ATPase of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum has distinct sites for monovalent cations, which in turn interact allosterically with other regulatory sites on the enzyme.  相似文献

Isolated rat kidney proximal tubule brush border membrane vesicles exhibit an increase in diacylglycerol levels (20- to 30-fold) and a concomitant decrease in phosphatidylinositol when incubated with [3H]arachidonate-labeled lipids, Ca2+, and deoxycholate. Levels of free arachidonate, triglyceride, and noninositol phospholipids are not altered. These results suggest phosphatidylinositol phosphodiesterase activity is associated with rat proximal tubule brush border membrane. Presence of both deoxycholate and certain divalent cations was necessary to demonstrate enzyme activity. Optimum pH ranged from 7.0 to 8.5. Ca2+, Mg2+, and Mn2+ stimulated diglyceride production while Ba2+, Zn2+, Hg2+, and K+ were ineffective. HgCl2 inhibited Ca2+-stimulated phosphatidylinositol phosphodiesterase. Mg2+ and deoxycholate-dependent enzyme activity was shown to be phosphatidylinositol specific. Sodium lauryl sulfate, tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide, and Triton X-100 did not activate phosphatidylinositol phosphodiesterase in the presence of Ca2+. In combination with deoxycholate, diglyceride formation was not affected by sodium lauryl sulfate, partially inhibited by Triton X-100, and completely abolished by tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide. Diglyceride kinase activity was not found associated with brush border membrane phosphatidylinositol phosphodiesterase. ATP (1-5 mM) inhibited Ca2+- or Mg2+-stimulated, deoxycholate-dependent phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis by chelating the required divalent cation.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to characterize the interrelationship between free calcium (Ca2+) and magnesium (Mg2+) in the Ca2+ ATPase enzyme cycle of kidney membranes. Experiments were performed with basolateral membranes from rat renal cortex and microdissected proximal and distal tubules from mice. Results were similar in the three types of preparations. We first investigated the effect of ATP concentration on Ca2(+)- and Mg2(+)-dependent ATP hydrolysis. With 0.2 microM Ca2+, the enzyme activity, as a function of ATP concentration, showed two saturable components: a high affinity component with a Km of 33 microM ATP and a low affinity component with a Km of 0.63 mM ATP. These components may represent either two distinct sites of ATP binding or two forms of the same site. For the sake of simplicity, it was assumed that the two components correspond to a high affinity and a low affinity substrate site. At the high affinity site (ATP = 50 microM), the Ca2+ dependence of ATP hydrolysis followed a single Michaelis-Menten kinetics with Km for Ca2+ of 0.08 microM. The addition of 1 mM Mg2+ resulted in a relatively constant increase in ATP hydrolysis at all Ca2+ concentrations, indicating that the effects of the two cations were additive. With high ATP concentration (ATP = 3 mM), Ca2+ also induced an ATP hydrolysis according to a saturable process, with a Km for Ca2+ of 0.2 microM. In contrast with what occurred with low concentrations of ATP, addition of millimolar Mg2+ completely curtailed the sensitivity of the enzyme to Ca2+.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

During tetrapyrrole biosynthesis the metalloenzyme porphobilinogen synthase (PBGS) catalyzes the condensation of two molecules of 5-aminolevulinic acid to form the pyrrole porphobilinogen. Pseudomonas aeruginosa PBGS was synthesized in Escherichia coli, and the enzyme was purified as a fusion protein with glutathione S-transferase (GST). After removal of GST, a molecular mass of 280 000 +/- 10 000 with a Stokes radius of 57 A was determined for native PBGS, indicating a homooctameric structure of the enzyme. Mg2+ stabilized the oligomeric state but was not essential for octamer formation. Alteration of N-terminal amino acids changed the oligomeric state and reduced the activity of the enzyme, revealing the importance of this region for oligomerization and activity. EDTA treatment severely inhibited enzymatic activity which could be completely restored by the addition of Mg2+ or Mn2+. At concentrations in the micromolar range Co2+, Zn2+, and Ni2+ partially restored EDTA-inhibited enzymatic activity while higher concentrations of Zn2+ inhibited the enzyme. Pb2+, Cd2+, and Hg2+ did not restore activity. A stimulatory effect of monovalent ions was observed. A Km of 0.33 mM for ALA and a maximal specific activity of 60 micromol h-1 mg-1 at the pH optimum of 8.6 in the presence of Mg2+ and K+ were found. pH-dependent kinetic studies were combined with protein modifications to determine the structural basis of two observed pKa values of approximately 7.9 (pKa1) and 9.5 (pKa2). These are postulated respectively as ionization of an active site lysine residue and of free substrate during catalysis. Some PBGS inhibitors were characterized. Finally, we succeeded in obtaining well-ordered crystals of P. aeruginosa PBGS complexed with the substrate analogue levulinic acid.  相似文献

The apparent specificity of activation of lysine-sensitive aspartokinase (E.C.2.7.2.4) from E. coli by monovalent cations differs depending on the assay used and on the Mg2+ concentration. Activity is nearly absolutely dependent on and is highly specific for a monovalent cation in the aspartate semialdehyde dehydrogenase coupled assay or the adenosine triphosphate-adenosine diphosphate exchange assay. Little specificity for monovalent cations is observed using the aspartyl hydroxamate assay. Activation and specificity are also altered by Mg2+ concentrations at a constant 5 mM nucleotide concentration. At a low (1.25 or 1.6 mM)Mg2+ concentration, monovalent cation activation and specificity are nearly absolute. Less dependence on monovalent cations and less specificity are observed at a higher Mg2+ concentration (6 mM). Li+ inhibits aspartokinase competitively with respect to either K+ or NH4+. Monovalent cations are also thermoprotective and differential thermal inactivation experiments at 56 degrees C reveal that NH4+ and K+, either of which will produce maximum catalytic activity, interact differently with aspartokinase. K+ interacts with positive cooperativity, whereas NH4+ does not. K+, NH4+, and Na+ are about equally effective in enhancing the dissociation of the aspartokinase-aspartylphosphate complex. Li+ is less effective.  相似文献

The effect of divalent cations on bovine sperm adenylate cyclase activity was studied. Mn2+, Co2+, Cd2+, Zn2+, Mg2+ and Ca2+ were found to satisfy the divalent cation requirement for catalysis of the bovine sperm adenylate cyclase. These divalent cations in excess of the amount necessary for the formation of the metal-ATP substrate complex were found to stimulate the enzyme activity to various degrees. The magnitude of stimulation at saturating concentrations of the divalent cations was strikingly greater with M2+ than with either Ca2+, Mg2+, Zn2+, Cd2+ or Co2+. The apparent Km was lowest for Zm2+ (0.1 - 0.2 mM) than for any of the other divalent cations tested (1.2 - 2.3 mM). The enzyme stimulation by Mn2+ was decreased by the simultaneous addition of Co2+, Cd2+, Ni2+ and particularly Zn2+ and Cu2+. The antagonism between Mn2+ and Cu2+ or Zn2+ appeared to have both competitive and non-competitive features. The inhibitory effect of Cu2+ on Mn2+-stimulated adenylate cyclase activity was prevented by 2,3-dimercaptopropanol, but not by dithiothreitol, L-ergothioneine, EDTA, EGTA or D-penicillamine. Ca2+ at concentrations of 1-5 mM was found to act synergistically with Mg2+, Zn2+, Co2+ and Mn2+ in stimulating sperm adenylate cyclase activity. The Ca2+ augmentation of the stimulatory effect of Zn2+, Co2+, Mg2+ and Mn2+ appeared to be specific.  相似文献

Thrombin is a Na(+)-activated enzyme.   总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

The amidase activity of human alpha-thrombin has been studied at steady state as a function of the concentration of several chloride salts, at a constant ionic strength I = 0.2 M. All kinetic steps of the catalytic mechanism of the enzyme have been solved by studies conducted as a function of relative viscosity of the solution. Among all monovalent cations, Na+ is the most effective in activating thrombin catalysis. This effect is observed with different amide substrates and also with gamma-thrombin, a proteolytic derivative of the native enzyme which has little clotting activity but retains amidase activity toward small synthetic substrates. The specific effects observed as a function of Na+ concentration are indicative of a binding interaction of this monovalent cation with the enzyme. The basis of this interaction has been explored by measurements of substrate hydrolysis collected in a three-dimensional matrix of substrate concentration, relative viscosity, and Na+ concentration, keeping the ionic strength constant with an inert cation such as choline or tetraethylammonium. The data have globally been analyzed in terms of a kinetic linkage scheme where Na+ plays the role of an allosteric effector. The properties of the enzyme change drastically upon binding of Na+, with substrate binding and dissociation, as well as deacylation, occurring on a time scale which is 1 order of magnitude faster. The apparent association constants for Na+ binding to the various intermediate forms of the enzyme have all been resolved from analysis of experimental data and are in the range of 50-100 M-1 at 25 degrees C. Studies conducted at different temperatures, in the range 15-35 degrees C, have revealed the enthalpic and entropic components of Na+ binding to the enzyme. The results obtained from steady-state measurements are supported by independent measurements of the intrinsic fluorescence of the enzyme as a function of Na+ concentration at a constant ionic strength I = 0.2 M, over the temperature range 15-35 degrees C. These measurements are indicative of a drastic conformational change of the enzyme upon Na+ binding to a single site. The energetics of Na+ binding derived from analysis of fluorescence measurements agree very well with those derived independently from steady-state determinations. It is proposed that thrombin exists in two conformations, slow and fast, and that the slow-->fast transition is triggered by binding of a monovalent cation. The high specificity in thrombin activation found in the case of Na+ is the result of its higher affinity compared to all other monovalent cations.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)  相似文献

Magnesium (Mg2+) increases binding of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) to membrane-bound receptors and increases adenylyl cyclase activity. We examined the effects of divalent and monovalent cations on FSH binding to receptors in granulosa cells from immature porcine follicles. Divalent and monovalent cations increased binding of [125I]iodo-porcine FSH (125I-pFSH). The divalent cations Mg2+, calcium (Ca2+) and manganese, (Mn2+) increased specific binding a maximum of 4- to 5-fold at added concentrations of 10 mM. Mg2+ caused a half-maximal enhancement of binding at 0.6 mM, whereas Ca2+ and Mn2+ had half-maximal effects at 0.7 mM and 0.8 mM, respectively. The monovalent cation potassium (K+) increased binding a maximum of 1.5-fold at an added concentration of 50 mM, whereas the monovalent cation (Na+) did not increase binding at any concentration tested. The difference between K+ and Na+ suggested that either enhancement of binding was not a simple ionic effect or Na+ has a negative effect that suppresses its positive effect. Ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid, a chelator of Mg2+, prevented binding of 125I-pFSH only in the presence of Mg2+, whereas pregnant mare's serum gonadotropin, a competitor with FSH for the receptor, prevented binding in both the absence and the presence of Mg2+. Guanyl-5-ylimidodiphosphate (Gpp[NH]p) inhibited binding of 125I-pFSH in the absence or presence of Mg2+, but only at Gpp(NH)p concentrations greater than 1 mM. We used Mg2+ to determine if divalent cations enhanced FSH binding by increasing receptor affinity or by increasing the apparent number of binding sites.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Activation of membrane-associated thiamin triphosphatase from rat brain requires a divalent cation (Mg2+, Ca2+, or Mn2+). The optimum concentration of Mg2+ necessary for maximal enzyme activity varies with substrate concentration; conversely, the maximal rate of hydrolysis attainbale by increasing thiamin triphosphate concentration is directly proportional to [Mg2+] for all levels of Mg2+ below that of the substrate. Under appropriate conditions, the Km of the thiamin triphosphatase for Mg2+ and for thiamin triphosphate are shown to be identical. Dissociation constants (Kd) for the binding of Mg2+ to thiamin triphosphate, thiamin diphosphate, and thiamin were determined; kinetic data re-expressed in terms of [Mg2+-thiamin triphosphate] conform to simple single substrate predictions, suggesting that the true enzyme substrate may be the Mg2+-thiamin triphosphate complex. Excess free Mg2+ inhibits thiamin triphosphatase activity competitively while excess free thiamin triphosphate in concentrations up to 10 times Km has no effect on the membrane-bound enzyme.  相似文献

The highly purified Ca2+-pumping ATPase from human erythrocyte membranes displays two p-nitrophenylphosphatase (NPPase) activities: one of these requires calmodulin and low concentrations of Ca2+, while the other requires ATP and higher Ca2+ concentrations. The free Ca2+ concentrations required for the expression of the two NPPase activities differed very substantially. Both activities required high free Mg2+ concentrations and displayed simple hyperbolic kinetics toward p-nitrophenyl phosphate (NPP) with a Km in the range of 5-20 mM. Study of the dependence of the calmodulin-stimulated NPPase on Mg2+ and NPP indicated that the Mg-NPP complex is not the substrate of the enzyme. Under conditions optimal for ATP-requiring NPPase (1 mM free Ca2+), the Ca2+-ATPase displayed simple hyperbolic kinetics with a low Km for ATP. NPP competitively inhibited this activity, and the apparent Ki for NPP was less than 1 mM, much lower than the Km for NPP as a substrate. If NPP were inhibiting the ATPase by binding at the same site at which NPP is hydrolyzed, the apparent Ki for NPP as inhibitor would be the same as the Km for NPP as substrate. (Under these circumstances, the apparent Ki and the Km can be directly compared, since NPP was being hydrolyzed under both circumstances.) Since Ki was much lower than Km, NPP must have been inhibiting at another site; thus, these data show the existence of two types of NPP sites on the enzyme, one at which NPP is hydrolyzed and the other at which it inhibits ATP hydrolysis.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

The kinetic properties of the activation by monovalent cations of the amidolytic activity of bovine des-1-41 light chain activated protein C have been examined. With the cations Cs+, K+, Li+, and Tl+, a single cation site, or class of sites, has been found to be responsible for the stimulation observed, with kinetic Ka values of 98-110, 180-210, 300-310, and 14-16 mM, respectively. The mechanism proposed for participation of these cations in the enzyme reaction involves an ordered addition, with the binding of cation preceding the binding of the amide substrate. On the other hand, the kinetic properties of this same activation by Na+ are consistent with either two cation sites, or classes of sites, of importance. Once again, however, the mechanism of the reaction appears to be of the ordered type, with cation binding occurring prior to substrate binding.  相似文献

Cyclic GMP-stimulated cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase purified greater than 13,000-fold to apparent homogeneity from calf liver exhibited a single protein band (Mr approximately 102,000) on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under denaturing conditions. Enzyme activity comigrated with the single protein peak on analytical polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, sucrose density gradient centrifugation, and gel filtration. From the sedimentation coefficient of 6.9 S and Stokes radius of 67 A, an Mr of 201,000 and frictional ratio (f/fo) of 1.7 were calculated, suggesting that the native enzyme is a nonspherical dimer of similar, if not identical, peptides. The effectiveness of Mg2+, Mn2+, and Co2+ in supporting catalytic activity depended on the concentration of cGMP and cAMP present as substrate or effector. Over a wide range of substrate concentrations, optimal concentrations for Mg2+, Mn2+, and Co2+ were about 10, 1, and 0.2 mM, respectively. At concentrations higher than optimal, Mg2+ inhibited activity somewhat; inhibition by Co2+ (and in some instances by Mn2+) was virtually complete. At low substrate concentrations, activity with optimal Mn2+ was equal to or greater than that with Co2+ and always greater than that with Mg2+. With greater than or equal to 0.5 microM cGMP or 20 to 300 microM cAMP and for cAMP-stimulated cGMP or cGMP-stimulated cAMP hydrolysis, activity with Mg2+ greater than Mn2+ greater than Co2+. In the presence of Mg2+, the purified enzyme hydrolyzed cGMP and cAMP with kinetics suggestive of positive cooperativity. Apparent Km values were 15 and 33 microM, and maximal velocities were 200 and 170 mumol/min/mg of protein, respectively. Substitution of Mn2+ for Mg2+ increased apparent Km and reduced Vmax for cGMP with little effect on Km or Vmax for cAMP. Co2+ increased Km and reduced Vmax for both. cGMP stimulated cAMP hydrolysis approximately 32-fold in the presence of Mg2+, much less with Mn2+ or Co2+. In the presence of Mg2+, Mn2+ and Co2+ at concentrations that increased activity when present singly inhibited cGMP-stimulated cAMP hydrolysis. It appears that divalent cations as well as cyclic nucleotides affect cooperative interactions of this enzyme. Whereas Co2+ effects were observed in the presence of either cyclic nucleotide, Mn2+ effects were especially prominent when cGMP was present (either as substrate or effector).  相似文献

The Mg2+-dependent ouabain insensitive-ATPase activity present in gill microsomal preparations from Dicentrarchus labrax is stimulated not only by Na+ but also by K=, NH4+ or Li+. These cations at 50-100 mM concentrations are similarly efficient to Na+ in stimulating the enzyme activity with similar Km values. Whatever cation stimulates the activity, the enzyme is poorly sensitive to ouabain and 100% inhibited by 1.5-2.5 mM ethacrynic acid. All activity vs cation concentration curves show a biphasic profile with activation following the Michaelis-Menten kinetics (Hill coefficient approximately 2). The absence of additivity when the enzyme is activated by binary mixtures of cations, each of which may act as competitive inhibitor of the other confirms the involvement of the same binding site for the monovalent cations.  相似文献

In the presence of Ca2+ (2.5 mM) and using [14C]arachidonoyl phosphatidylinositol (PI) membrane as substrate, phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) (EC 3.1.4.10) in rat brain synaptosomes was activated by deoxycholate but not taurocholate. Calcium stimulated enzymic hydrolysis by both detergents, but the stimulatory effect of taurocholate was less than that of deoxycholate. Peak stimulation for deoxycholate was observed at 1 mg/ml, whereas that for taurocholate was 4 mg/ml. When 1 mM EDTA was added to the taurocholate (4 mg/ml) and Ca2+ (3.5 mM) system, synaptosomal PI-PLC activity was greatly stimulated, to almost the same level as the deoxycholate + Ca2+ system. This system required the presence of all three factors, and EGTA could not effectively replace EDTA in the stimulatory action. The detergent-induced hydrolysis of synaptosomal PI by the deoxycholate + Ca2+ and the taurocholate + Ca2+ + EDTA systems was strongly inhibited by divalent metal ions such as Zn2+, Cu2+, Pb2+, and Fe2+, whereas Mg2+ and Ca2+ were ineffective. Nevertheless, only the deoxycholate + Ca2+ system was responsive to enzyme inhibition by membrane-perturbing agents such as lysophospholipids and free fatty acids. The specific requirement for EDTA in the taurocholate system may be due to the release of a pool of inhibitory divalent metal ions from the membranes.  相似文献

The hydrolysis of ATP catalyzed by purified (Na,K)-ATPase from pig kidney was more sensitive to Mg2+ inhibition when measured in the presence of saturating Na+ and K+ concentrations [(Na,K)-ATPase] than in the presence of Na+ alone, either at saturating [(Na,Na)-ATPase] or limiting [(Na,0)-ATPase] Na+ concentrations. This was observed at two extreme concentrations of ATP (3 mM where the low-affinity site is involved and 3 microM where only the catalytic site is relevant), although Mg2+ inhibition was higher at low ATP concentration. In the case of (Na,Na)-ATPase activity, inhibition was barely observed even at 10 mM free Mg2+ when ATP was 3 mM. When (Na,K)-ATPase activity was measured at different fixed K+ concentrations the apparent Ki for Mg2+ inhibition was lower at higher monovalent cation concentration. When K+ was replaced by its congeners (Rb+, NH+4, Li+), Mg2+ inhibition was more pronounced in those cases in which the dephosphorylating cation forms a tighter enzyme-cation complex after dephosphorylation. This effect was independent of the ATP concentration, although inhibition was more marked at lower ATP for all the dephosphorylating cations. The K0.5 for ATP activation at its low-affinity site, when measured in the presence of different dephosphorylating cations, increased following the sequence Rb+ greater than K+ greater than NH+4 greater than Li+ greater than none. The K0.5 values were lower with 0.05 mM than with 10 mM free Mg2+ but the order was not modified. The trypsin inactivation pattern of (Na,K)-ATPase indicated that Mg2+ kept the enzyme in an E1 state. Addition of K+ changed the inactivation into that observed with the E2 enzyme form. On the other hand, K+ kept the enzyme in an E2 state and addition of Mg2+ changed it to an E1 form. The K0.5 for KCl-induced E1-to-E2 transformation (observed by trypsin inactivation profile) in the presence of 3 mM MgCl2 was about 0.9 mM. These results concur with two mechanisms for free Mg2+ inhibition of (Na,K)-ATPase: "product" and dead-end. The first would result from Mg2+ interaction with the enzyme in the E2(K) occluded state whereas the second would be brought about by a Mg2+-enzyme complex with the enzyme in an E1 state.  相似文献

The effect of various detergents on polyphosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C activity in highly purified wheat root plasma membrane vesicles was examined. The plasma membrane-bound enzyme was solubilized in octylglucoside and purified 25-fold by hydroxylapatite and ion-exchange chromatography. The purified enzyme catalyzed the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PIP) and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) with specific activities of 5 and 10 mumol/min per mg protein, respectively. Phosphatidylinositol (PI) was not a substrate. Optimum activity was between pH 6-7 (PIP) and pH 6-6.5 (PIP2). The enzyme was dependent on micromolar concentrations of Ca2+ for activity, and millimolar Mg2+ further increased the activity. Other divalent cations (4 mM Ca2+, Mn2+ and Co2+) inhibited (PIP2 as substrate) or enhanced (PIP as substrate) phospholipase C activity.  相似文献
