The effects of adenine nucleotides on pea seed glutamine synthetase (EC 6.3.1.2) activity were examined as a part of our investigation of the regulation of this octameric plant enzyme. Saturation curves for glutamine synthetase activity versus ATP with ADP as the changing fixed inhibitor were not hyperbolic; greater apparent Vmax values were observed in the presence of added ADP than the Vmax observed in the absence of ADP. Hill plots of data with ADP present curved upward and crossed the plot with no added ADP. The stoichiometry of adenine nucleotide binding to glutamine synthetase was examined. Two molecules of [gamma-32P]ATP were bound per subunit in the presence of methionine sulfoximine. These ATP molecules were bound at an allosteric site and at the active site. One molecule of either [gamma-32P]ATP or [14C]ADP bound per subunit in the absence of methionine sulfoximine; this nucleotide was bound at an allosteric site. ADP and ATP compete for binding at the allosteric site, although ADP was preferred. ADP binding to the allosteric site proceeded in two kinetic phases. A Vmax value of 1.55 units/mg was measured for glutamine synthetase with one ADP tightly bound per enzyme subunit; a Vmax value of 0.8 unit/mg was measured for enzyme with no adenine nucleotide bound at the allosteric site. The enzyme activation caused by the binding of ADP to the allosteric sites was preceded by a lag phase, the length of which was dependent on the ADP concentration. Enzyme incubated in 10 mM ADP bound approximately 4 mol of ADP/mol of native enzyme before activation was observed; the activation was complete when 7-8 mol of ADP were bound per mol of the octameric, native enzyme. The Km for ATP (2 mM) was not changed by ADP binding to the allosteric sites. ADP was a simple competitive inhibitor (Ki = 0.05 mM) of ATP for glutamine synthetase with eight molecules of ADP tightly bound to the allosteric sites of the octamer. Binding of ATP to the allosteric sites led to marked inhibition. 相似文献

Evidence for an essential arginine residue at the active site of Escherichia coli acetate kinase 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Escherichia coli acetate kinase (ATP: acetate phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.2.1.) was inactivated in the presence of either 2,3-butanedione in borate buffer or phenylglyoxal in triethanolamine buffer. When incubated with 9.4 mM phenylglyoxal or 5.1 mM butanedione, the enzyme lost its activity with an apparent rate constant of inactivation of 0.079 min-1, respectively. The loss of enzymatic activity was concomitant with the loss of an arginine residue per active site. Phosphorylated substrates of acetate kinase, ATP, ADP and acetylphosphate as well as AMP markedly decreased the rate of inactivation by both phenylglyoxal and butanedione. Acetate neither provided any protection nor affected the protection rendered by the adenine nucleotides. However, it interfered with the protection afforded by acetylphosphate. These data suggest that an arginine residue is located at the active site of acetate kinase and is essential for its catalytic activity, probably as a binding site for the negatively charged phosphate group of the substrates. 相似文献

Summary An attempt was made to locate the ATP: creatine phosphotransferase (creatine kinase, CKase) in rat skeletal muscle by a lead precipitation method. The muscle is not stained at all with creatine phosphate (CP), and only weakly with adenosine diphosphate (ADP) as substrate, while it hydrolyzes adenosine triphosphate (ATP) actively. Taking advantage of this fact, it is possible to demonstrate the CKase activity using both ADP and CP as substrate. The CKase activity thus obtained was located in various profiles of sarcoplasmic reticulum as well as in A bands, the staining being comparable to that obtained with ATP as substrate.A weak activity was found only in cisternal dilatations of sarcoplasmic reticulum when sections were incubated with ADP as substrate. 相似文献

In Methanothrix soehngenii, acetate is activated to acetyl-coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA) by an acetyl-CoA synthetase. Cell extracts contained high activities of adenylate kinase and pyrophosphatase, but no activities of a pyrophosphate:AMP and pyrophosphate:ADP phosphotransferase, indicating that the activation of 1 acetate in Methanothrix requires 2 ATP. Acetyl-CoA synthetase was purified 22-fold in four steps to apparent homogeneity. The native molecular mass of the enzyme from M. soehngenii estimated by gel filtration was 148 kilodaltons (kDa). The enzyme was composed of two subunits with a molecular mass of 73 kDa in an alpha 2 oligomeric structure. The acetyl-CoA synthetase constituted up to 4% of the soluble cell protein. At the optimum pH of 8.5, the Vmax was 55 mumol of acetyl-CoA formed per min per mg of protein. Analysis of enzyme kinetic properties revealed a Km of 0.86 mM for acetate and 48 microM for coenzyme A. With varying amounts of ATP, weak sigmoidal kinetic was observed. The Hill plot gave a slope of 1.58 +/- 0.12, suggesting two interacting substrate sites for the ATP. The kinetic properties of the acetyl-CoA synthetase can explain the high affinity for acetate of Methanothrix soehngenii. 相似文献

In the present report the enzymatic properties of an ATP diphosphohydrolase (apyrase, EC 3.6.1.5) in Trichomonas vaginalis were determined. The enzyme hydrolyses purine and pyrimidine nucleoside 5'-di- and 5'-triphosphates in an optimum pH range of 6.0--8.0. It is Ca(2+)-dependent and is insensitive to classical ATPase inhibitors, such as ouabain (1 mM), N-ethylmaleimide (0.1 mM), orthovanadate (0.1 mM) and sodium azide (5 mM). A significant inhibition of ADP hydrolysis (37%) was observed in the presence of 20 mM sodium azide, an inhibitor of ATP diphosphohydrolase. Levamisole, a specific inhibitor of alkaline phosphatase, and P(1), P(5)-di (adenosine 5'-) pentaphosphate, a specific inhibitor of adenylate kinase, did not inhibit the enzyme activity. The enzyme has apparent K(m) (Michaelis Constant) values of 49.2+/-2.8 and 49.9+/-10.4 microM and V(max) (maximum velocity) values of 49.4+/-7.1 and 48.3+/-6.9 nmol of inorganic phosphate x min(-1) x mg of protein(-1) for ATP and ADP, respectively. The parallel behaviour of ATPase and ADPase activities and the competition plot suggest that ATP and ADP hydrolysis occur at the same active site. The presence of an ATP diphosphohydrolase activity in T. vaginalis may be important for the modulation of nucleotide concentration in the extracellular space, protecting the parasite from the cytolytic effects of the nucleotides, mainly ATP. 相似文献

Interactions between Escherichia coli arginyl-tRNA synthetase and its substrates were extensively studied and distinctly demonstrated. Various approaches such as equilibrium dialysis, fluorescence titration, and substrate protection against heat inactivation of the enzyme were used for these studies. In the absence of other substrates, the equilibrium dissociation constants for arginine, ATP, and the cognate tRNA were about 70 microM, 0.85 mM, and 0.45 microM, respectively, at pH 7.5, in Tris buffer. The binding of arginine to the enzyme was affected neither by the presence of tRNA nor by the presence of ATP but was considerably enhanced when ATP and tRNA were both present at saturating concentrations. The dissociation constant in this case (about 16 microM) was very close to the Km (12 microM) for arginine during aminoacylation. The binding of ATP (the equilibrium dissociation constant KD approximately 0.85 mM) was not affected by the presence of arginine but was depressed in the presence of tRNA (KD became 3 mM). Arginyl-tRNA showed a dissociation constant of (4-5) X 10(-7) M which was not affected by the presence of a single other substrate. Possible explanations for the high Km for tRNA in the aminoacylation are discussed. Our results indicated pronounced interactions between substrates mediated by the enzyme under catalytic conditions. Periodate oxidation did not alter the tRNA binding to the enzyme. The oxidized tRNA still afforded protection against heat inactivation of the enzyme. 相似文献

1. Activation of glucose 6-phosphate is one of the unique properties of pyruvate kinase from Mycobacterium smegmatis. 2. Pyruvate kinase, partially purified from ultrasonic extracts of the mycobacteria by (NH4)2SO4 fractionation, exhibited sigmoidal kinetics at various concentrations of phosphoenolpyruvate, with a high degree of co-operativity (Hill coefficient, h = 3.7) and S0.5 value of 1.0 mM. 3. In the presence of glucose 6-phosphate, the degree of co-operativity shown by the phosphoenolpyruvate saturation curve was decreased to h = 2.33 and the S0.5 value was lowered to 0.47 mM. 4. The enzyme was activated by AMP and ribose 5-phosphate also, but the activation constant was lowest with glucose 6-phosphate (0.24 mM). 5. The enzyme was strongly inhibited by ATP at all phosphoenolpyruvate concentrations. The concentrations of ATP required to produce half-maximal inhibition of enzyme activity at non-saturating (0.2 mM) and saturating (2 mM) phosphoenolpyruvate concentrations were 1.1 mM and 3 mM respectively. 6. The inhibition of ATP was partially relieved by glucose 6-phosphate. 7. The enzyme exhibited Michaelis-Menten kinetics with ADP as the variable substrate, with an apparent Km of 0.66 mM. 8. The enzyme required Mg2+ or Mn2+ ions for activity. It was not activated by univalent cations. 9. The kinetic data indicate that under physiological conditions glucose 6-phosphate probably plays a significant role in the regulation of pyruvate kinase activity. 相似文献

Arginyl-tRNA synthetase from Escherichia coli, purification by affinity chromatography, properties, and steady-state kinetics 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A Blue Sephadex G-150 affinity column adsorbs the arginyl-tRNA synthetase of Escherichia coli K12 and purifies it with high efficiency. The relatively low enzyme content was conveniently purified by DEAE-cellulose chromatography, affinity chromatography, and fast protein liquid chromatography to a preparation with high activity capable of catalyzing the esterification of about 23,000 nmol of arginine to the cognate tRNA per milligram of enzyme within 1 min, at 37 degrees C, pH 7.4. The turnover number is about 27 s-1. The purification was about 1200-fold, and the overall yield was more than 30%. The enzyme has a single polypeptide chain of about Mr 70,000 and binds arginine and tRNA with 1:1 stoichiometry. For the aminoacylation reaction, the Km values at pH 7.4, 37 degrees C, for various substrates were determined: 12 microM, 0.9 mM, and 2.5 microM for arginine, ATP, and tRNA, respectively. The Km value for cognate tRNA is higher than those of most of the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase systems so far reported. The ATP-PPi exchange reaction proceeds only in the presence of arginine-specific tRNA. The Km values of the exchange at pH 7.2, 37 degrees C, are 0.11 mM, 2.9 mM, and 0.5 mM for arginine, ATP, and PPi, respectively, with a turnover number of 40 s-1. The pH dependence shows that the reaction is favored toward slightly acidic conditions where the aminoacylation is relatively depressed. 相似文献

5-Oxo-L-prolinase, an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of 5-oxo-L-proline (L-pyroglutamate; L-2-pyrrolidone-5-carboxylate) to L-glutamate coupled with the cleavage of ATP to ADP and Pi, has been purified about 1600-fold from rat kidney. Purification was carried out in the presence of 5-oxo-L-proline which protects the enzyme under a variety of conditions. An estimate of the molecular weight (about 325,000) was made by gel filtration on Sephadex G-200. K+ (or NH4+) and Mg2+ were required for activity. GTP, ITP, CTP, and UTP were much less active than ATP; dATP was 43% as active as ATP. ADP inhibited and addition of pyruvate kinase and phosphoenolpyruvate activated the reaction. The enzyme, which is protected during storage by dithiothreitol, is inhibited by p-hydroxymercuribenzoate, N-ethylmaleimide, and iodoacetamide. The apparent Km values for 5-oxo-L-proline and ATP are, respectively, 0.05 and 0.17 mM. The pH profile indicates a broad range of activity from about pH 5.5 to pH 11.2 with apparent maxima at about pH 7 and pH 9.7. The formation of Pi and glutamate was equimolar over a wide pH range. When the enzyme was incubated with ATP, Mg2+, K+, and L-2-imidazolidone-4-carboxylate or L-dihydroorotate, cleavage of ATP to ADP and Pi occurred, but no cleavage of the imino acid substrates was observed; when the enzyme was incubated under these conditions with 2-piperidone-6-carboxylate, 4-oxy-5-oxoproline, and 3-oxy-5-oxoproline, the corresponding dicarboxylic amino acids were formed, but the molar ratio of Pi to amino acid formation was significantly greater than unity. 相似文献

Serratia marcescens HY possessed a single carbamylphosphate synthase (CPSase) which was subject to cumulative repression by arginine and a pyrimidine. CPSase did not appear to be a part of a multifunctional enzyme complex as is the case for other enzymes of pyrimidine biosynthesis in this organism. CPSase was purified to homogeneity. The molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be 167,000 by sucrose density gradient ultracentrifugation. The double-reciprocal plot for magnesium adenosine triphosphate was linear, yielding a Km value of 2.5 mM. The enzyme utilized either glutamine (Km, 0.1 mM) or NH3 (Km, 10.5 mM) as a nitrogen donor in the reaction. CPSase activity was subject to activation by ornithine and feedback inhibition by uridine monophosphate, as is the case for other enteric bacteria. Carbamate kinase activity, detected in crude extracts of S. marcescens, was shown to be due to a constitutive acetate kinase. The absence of carbamate kinase from S. marcescens HY is consistent with the inability of this organism to utilize arginine as a source of energy under anaerobic conditions. 相似文献

The kinetic properties of purified sheep hepatic pyruvate kinase change upon storage. Assayed at 0.5 mM fructose-1,6-diphosphate and 2 mM ADP, saturation of fresh enzyme with phosphoenolpyruvate is hyperbolic, with KPEP = 0.1 mM (pH 7.5, and 30 degrees C). Under similar conditions enzyme stored at -20 degrees C for 1 week or more yields a nonlinear Lineweaver-Burk plot for PEP. The data may be accounted for by the appearance of two enzymic forms with identical turnover numbers, but different KPEP (0.035 +/- 0.005 and 12.4 +/- 0.6 mM). Storage also increases the concentration of fructose-1,6-diphosphate required for maximal activation from nanomolar to millimolar levels. Assayed at 2 mM ADP and 2 mM PEP, the apparent KFDP is 10 mM. Preincubation of stored enzyme with PEP in the presence of mercaptoethanol leads to significant reversion to original kinetic properties. Available data suggest that the storage-dependent change in kinetic behavior rises from changes in subunit conformation and not from dissociation into subunits. 相似文献

Micromolar concentrations of Al3+ induce phase separation, aggregation and dye release in phosphatidylserine-containing lipid vesicles 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
It has been proposed that hexokinase bound to mitochondria occupies a preferred site to which ATP from oxidative phosphorylation is channeled directly (Bessman, S. (1966) Am. J. Medicine 40, 740-749). We have investigated this problem in isolated Zajdela hepatoma mitochondria. Addition of ADP to well-coupled mitochondria in the presence of an oxidizable substrate initiates the synthesis of glucose 6-phosphate via bound hexokinase. This reaction is only partially inhibited by oligomycin, carboxyatractyloside, carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) or any combination of these, suggesting a source of ATP in addition to oxidative phosPhorylation. This source appears to be adenylate kinase, since Ado2P5, an inhibitor of the enzyme, suppresses hexokinase activity by about 50% when added alone or suppresses activity completely when added together with any of the inhibitors of oxidative phosphorylation. Ado2P5 does not uncouple oxidative phosphorylation nor does it inhibit ADP transport (state 3 respiration) or hexokinase. The relative amount of ATP contributed by adenylate kinase is dependent upon the ADP concentration. At low ADP concentrations, glucose phosphorylation is supported by oxidative phosphorylation, but as the adenine nucleotide translocator becomes saturated the ATP contributed by adenylate kinase increases due to the higher apparent Km of the enzyme. Under conditions of our standard experiment ([ADP] = 0.5 mM), adenylate kinase provides about 50% of the ATP used by hexokinase in well-coupled mitochondria. In spite of this, externally added ATP supported higher initial rates of hexokinase activity than ADP. Our findings demonstrate that oxidative phosphorylation is not a specific or preferential source of ATP for hexokinase bound to hepatoma mitochondria. The apparent lack of a channeling mechanism for ATP to hexokinase in these mitochondria is discussed. 相似文献

Human lymphocytes contain NTPDase (NTPDase-1; ecto-apyrase; ecto-diphosphohydrolase; CD39; EC 3.6.1.5), a cation-dependent enzyme that hydrolyzes ATP and ADP and also other di- and triphosphate nucleosides, acting at an optimum pH of 8.0. A significant inhibition of ATP and ADP hydrolysis (P<0.05) was observed in the presence of 20 mM sodium azide. NTPDase inhibitors, 20 mM sodium fluoride, 0.2 mM trifluoperazine and 0.3 mM suramin, significantly decreased ATP and ADP hydrolysis (P<0.05) and ADP hydrolysis was only inhibited by 0.5 mM orthovanadate (P<0.05). ATP and ADP hydrolysis was not inhibited in the presence of 0.01 mM Ap5A (P1,P5-di(adenosine-5')pentaphosphate), 0.1 mM ouabain, 1 mM levamisole, 2 microg/mL oligomycin, 0.1 mM N-ethylmaleimide (NEM), or 5 mM sodium azide. With respect to kinetic behavior, apparent K(m) values of 77.6+/-10.2 and 106.8+/-21.0 microM, and V(max) values of 68.9+/-8.1 and 99.4+/-8.5 (mean+/-S.E., n=3) nmol Pi/min/mg protein were obtained for ATP and ADP, respectively. A Chevilard plot demonstrated that only one enzymatic site is responsible for the hydrolysis of ATP and ADP. The presence of CD39 was determined by flow cytometry, showing a low density of 2.72+/-0.24% (mean+/-S.E.; n=30) in human peripheral lymphocytes. The study of NTPDase activity in human lymphocytes may be important to determine the immune response status against infectious agents related to ATP and ADP hydrolysis. 相似文献

The binding of the substrates, ATP and ribose-5-P, and the most effective inhibitor, ADP, to phosphoribosylpyrophosphate synthetase from Salmonella typhimurium was characterized using equilibrium dialysis of these compounds labeled with 32P. In the absence of ribose-5-P, ATP, ADP, and the ATP analogue alpha,beta-methylene ATP each bind cooperatively with half-saturation at 50 to 90 microM and Hill coefficients of 1.5 to 2. We propose that all three compounds bind at the same set of sites, which are presumably the active sites. When ribose-5-P was added, methylene ATP and ADP binding at these sites became tighter (Kd approximately 3 to 6 microM at 10 mM ribose-5-P) and lost its cooperativity. In the presence of ribose-5-P, ADP, but not methylene ATP, bound to a second site with half-saturation at approximately 150 microM and a Hill coefficient greater than 3. This result confirms the existence of an allosteric ADP site, which was previously postulated from kinetic studies (Switzer, R. L., and Sogin, D. C. (1973) J. Biol. Chem. 248, 1063-1073). Binding of ribose-5-P could not be detected in the absence of nucleotides, but it was readily measured in their presence. The apparent Kd of ribose-5-P varied from greater than 1 mM to approximately 5 microM as the concentration of either ADP or methylene ATP was increased from 0 to 2 mM. Inhibition of the enzyme by action of ADP at both active and allosteric sites could be observed kinetically. 相似文献

Glutamine synthetase (GS) from brain of Clarias batrachus is purified to about 42-fold and characterized at optimum pH and temperature with respect to its kinetic parameters. Values for apparent Michaelis constant of the enzyme for L-glutamine, hydroxylamine and ADP are 50, 62.5 and 0.833 mM respectively. The very low apparent Km for ADP may be specially related to the expression of GS action under high energy bond and also be evidenced by the requirement of enzyme for a high ionic strength of the ADP. The study is extended by examining the effect of various amino acids and metabolites on GS activity in order to gain further understanding of the changes in kinetics and regulation. It reveals that whereas uridine monophosphate and glutamate act competitively with respect to L-glutamine, carbamylphosphate and asparagine act non-competitively. GS activity is markedly inhibited by leucine, aspartic acid and AMP but not by lysine. ATP and methionine sulfoximine behaved as potent inhibitors of the enzyme in vitro. It is suggested that the teleostean GS has most of the properties similar to those reported for mammalian and avian glutamine synthetases. However, it is proposed that kinetic regulation of this enzyme may play a significant role in ammonia detoxication and rate of formation of glutamine-derived neurotransmitters in fish brain. 相似文献

The first enzyme responsible for assimilating levoglucosan in Aspergillus niger CBX-209 was corroborated to be levoglucosan kinase that catalyzes the transfer of a phosphate group from ATP to levoglucosan to yield a glucose 6-phosphate in the presence of magnesium ion and ATP by FAB-mass spectrometric method combined with previous observations from HPLC and enzymological experiments. Levoglucosan kinase was purified to apparent homogeneity by using a combination of seven purification steps. SDS-PAGE revealed a single protein band of 56 KDa. It is a monomeric enzyme and maximal enzyme activity was measured at pH 9.3 and 30 degrees C. This kinase is stable below 20 degrees C at a quite broad pHs ranging from 6 to 10 and levoglucosan could protect the enzyme from thermal inactivation. Exclusive substrate specificity for levoglucosan suggested that not only the structure of the intramolecular glucosidic linkage but also the configuration of the pyranose frame would be specific for recognition by levoglucosan kinase. The K(m) values of this enzyme were 71.2mM for levoglucosan and 0.25 mM for ATP, determined by double reciprocal plottings and ADP inhibited on the enzyme activity competitively with a Ki value of 0.20mM. A cDNA library from A. niger was constructed in Escherichia coli DH5alpha. The library was screened for levoglucosan kinase gene on NCE selective medium and three positive recombinants were selected after a five day culture. Detection of activities of levoglucosan kinase in the cell extracts indicated that levoglucosan kinase gene (lgk) was expressed by the recombinant strain of E. coli DH5alpha. 相似文献

An improved purification procedure, an alternative assay and activation of mevalonate kinase by ATP 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
An improved procedure for the purification of pig liver mevalonate kinase (ATP:mevalonate 5-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.36) is described. A high-voltage electrophoresis assay was developed for mevalonate kinase. The procedure separates mevalonate from phosphomevalonate and also from diphosphomevalonate so that it can be used to measure the subsequent enzyme, phosphomevalonate kinase (EC 2.7.4.2). The assay has allowed the reassessment of the metal ion and nucleotide specificity of the pig liver enzyme. Some of the previously reported properties reflected those of the enzymes in the coupling assay rather than mevalonate kinase itself. A series of compounds were tested as activators or inhibitors of mevalonate kinase. It was found that ATP4-, arsenate and, to a smaller extent, inorganic phosphate activated the enzyme. At fixed MgATP2- (1 mM) concentrations the activation of mevalonate kinase by free ATP4- at pH 8.0 was observed at concentrations at up to 10-fold that of MgATP2- before causing any inhibition. The presence of free ATP4- resulted in a biphasic Lineweaver-Burke plot with apparent Km values for MgATP2- being 0.14 mM and 60 microM, respectively. Fluorescence measurements were consistent with the notion that the binding of excess ATP4- to the enzyme caused a conformational change. 相似文献

Compartmented coupling of chicken heart mitochondrial creatine kinase to the nucleotide translocase requires the outer mitochondrial membrane 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The kinetic coupling of mitochondrial creatine kinase (MiMi-CK) to ADP/ATP translocase in chicken heart mitochondrial preparations is demonstrated. Measuring the MiMi-CK apparent Km value for MgATP2- (at saturating creatine) gives a value of 36 microM when MiMi-CK is coupled to oxidative phosphorylation. This Km value is threefold lower than the Km for enzyme bound to mitoplasts or free in solution. The nucleotide translocase Km value for ADP decreases from 20 to 10 microM in the presence of 50 mM creatine only with intact mitochondria. Similar experiments with mitoplasts do not give decreased Km values. The observed Km differences can be used to calculate the concentration of ATP and ADP under steady-state conditions showing that the observed differences in the kinetic constants accurately reflect the enzyme activities of MiMi-CK under the different conditions. The behavior of the Km values provides evidence for what we term compartmented coupling. Therefore, like the rabbit heart system (S. Erickson-Viitanen, P. Viitanen, P. J. Geiger, W. C. T. Yang, and S. P. Bessman (1982) J. Biol. Chem. 257, 14395-14404) compartmented coupling requires an intact outer mitochondrial membrane. The apparent Km values for normal or compartmentally coupled systems can be used to calculate steady-state values of ATP and ADP by coupling enzyme theory. Hence, the overall kinetic parameters accurately reflect the behavior of the enzymes whether free in solution or in the intermembrane space. 相似文献

The main kinetic parameters for purified phosphorylase kinase from chicken skeletal muscle were determined at pH 8.2: Vm = 18 micromol/min/mg; apparent Km values for ATP and phosphorylase b from rabbit muscle were 0.20 and 0.02 mM, respectively. The activity ratio at pH 6.8/8.2 was 0.1-0.4 for different preparations of phosphorylase kinase. Similar to the rabbit enzyme, chicken phosphorylase kinase had an absolute requirement for Ca2+ as demonstrated by complete inhibition in the presence of EGTA. Half-maximal activation occurred at [Ca2+] = 0.4 microM at pH 7.0. In the presence of Ca2+, the chicken enzyme from white and red muscles was activated 2-4-fold by saturating concentrations of calmodulin and troponin C. The C0.5 value for calmodulin and troponin C at pH 6.8 was 2 and 100 nM, respectively. Similar to rabbit phosphorylase kinase, the chicken enzyme was stimulated about 3-6-fold by glycogen at pH 6.8 and 8.2 with half-maximal stimulation occurring at about 0.15% glycogen. Protamine caused 60% inhibition of chicken phosphorylase kinase at 0.8 mg/ml. ADP (3 mM) at 0.05 mM ATP caused 85% inhibition with Ki = 0.2 mM. Unlike rabbit phosphorylase kinase, no phosphorylation of the chicken enzyme occurred in the presence of the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Incubation with trypsin caused 2-fold activation of the chicken enzyme. 相似文献
