An alteration in phosphofructokinase 2 of Escherichia coli which impairs gluconeogenic growth and improves growth on sugars 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Escherichia coli contains a major phosphofructokinase isoenzyme, phosphofructokinase 1, which is allosteric, and a minor isoenzyme, phosphofructokinase 2. The pfkB1 mutation is known to increase the amount of phosphofructokinase 2 and allow growth on sugars of mutants lacking phosphofructokinase 1; it does not affect growth on substances such as glycerol or lactate (i.e., 'gluconeogenic growth'). However, gluconeogenic growth is markedly impaired in strains with a different allele, pfkB1*. We show here that strains with pfkB1* contain an altered form of phosphofructokinase 2, called phosphofructokinase 2*, which has been purified. Phosphofructokinase 2* is cold labile and has slightly different kinetic characteristics from phosphofructokinase 2, which include being less sensitive to inhibition by fructose 1,6-bisphosphate. The Km for fructose 6-phosphate is low (about 5 X 10(-5) M) in both phosphofructokinase 2 and phosphofructokinase 2*. However, in strains lacking phosphofructokinase 1, a high level of phosphofructokinase 2 is associated with unusually high concentrations of hexose monophosphates during growth on glucose, while a strain with phosphofructokinase 2* instead of phosphofructokinase 2 grows more rapidly on glucose and contains lower levels of hexose monophosphates. In gluconeogenic conditions, by contrast, hexose monophosphate levels are normal in phosphofructokinase 2 strains, while the impaired growth of phosphofructokinase 2* strains is associated with high levels of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate and very low levels of hexose monophosphates. These results show that phosphofructokinase 2, as studied in vitro, should no longer be regarded as a 'non-allosteric' protein, a conclusion also reached by Kotlarz and Buc on the basis of different types of experiments [Eur. J. Biochem. 117, 569-574 (1981)]. The fact that mutational alteration of phosphofructokinase 2 allows more rapid growth on glucose but severely impairs gluconeogenic growth is an indication of the significance of the regulation in vivo. The more rapid growth of the mutant on glucose might be explained on the basis of decreased sensitivity to an inhibitor (possibly, but not necessarily, fructose 1,6-bisphosphate), although other models are possible. A variety of speculations are offered as to the mechanism of gluconeogenic impairment. 相似文献

Human and rabbit erythrocyte membranes prepared by hypotonic hemolysis contained 5 to 15% of the phosphofructokinase in the erythrocytes. The membrane-bound phosphofructokinase can be eluted by a saline wash. Human erythrocyte and rabbit muscle phosphofructokinase bind to the saline-washed membranes. This binding is specific for the inner surface of the membrane. The amount of phosphofructokinase bound is dependent on pH; at pH 7, 6 times more enzyme is bound than at pH 7.5. Unlike free phosphofructokinase, the membrane-bound phosphofructokinase is not inhibited by ATP or 2,3-diphosphoglycerate, and its fructose-6-P saturation curve is nonsigmoidal. 相似文献

Isoenzymes of phosphofructokinase are present in the endosperm of developing seeds of Ricinus communis L. DEAE-Sephacel chromatography will separate the isoenzymes and can be used to identify them as cytosolic and plastid activities. Plastid phosphofructokinase represents approximately 60% of the total phosphofructokinase activity in this tissue. The isoenzymes have different kinetic properties. The plastid phosphofructokinase is activated by sodium phosphate at pH 6.8 and inhibited by sodium sulfate at pH 7.2, whereas the activity of cytosolic phosphofructokinase is much less sensitive to these anions under the same assay conditions. A procedure has been developed to purify the endosperm plastid phosphofructokinase using ion-exchange chromatography and 5′-AMP affinity chromatography. The molecular weight of plastid phosphofructokinase is 175,000 as estimated by gel filtration. 相似文献

A steady-state kinetic analysis of plastid phosphofructokinase at pH 8.2 is consistent with the enzyme having a sequential reaction mechanism. Cytosolic phosphofructokinase probably has a similar mechanism. At pH 7.0 plastid phosphofructokinase shows cooperative binding of fructose 6-phosphate and is inhibited by higher concentrations of ATP. In contrast cytosolic phosphofructokinase shows normal kinetics at both pH 8.2 and 7.0 with respect to fructose 6-phosphate and is not inhibited by ATP. In the case of plastid phosphofructokinase the affinity for fructose 6-phosphate increases as the pH is raised from 7 to 8.2 whereas cytosolic phosphofructokinase is affected in an opposite manner. Phosphate is the principal activator of plastid phosphofructokinase since the cooperative kinetics toward fructose 6-phosphate are shifted toward Michaelis-Menten kinetics by 1 mm sodium phosphate and this concentration of phosphate relieves the inhibition by ATP. Both isoenzymes are inhibited by phosphoenolpyruvate, 2-phosphoglycerate, and 3-phosphoglycerate at pH 7.2. Plastid phosphofructokinase is most strongly inhibited by phosphoenol pyruvate with the I0.5 value varying from 0.08 to 0.5 μm depending on substrate concentrations; phosphate reverses this inhibition. In contrast cytosolic phosphofructokinase is much less inhibited by phosphoenolpyruvate with an I0.5 approximately 1000-fold higher. Cytosolic phosphofructokinase is powerfully inhibited by 3-phosphoglycerate with an I0.5 value of 60 μm and this appears to be the principal regulator of this isoenzyme. The two isoenzymes of phosphofructokinase in the endosperm appear, therefore, to be regulated differently. Plastid phosphofructokinase is inhibited by phosphoenolpyruvate and ATP and is activated by phosphate; whereas the cytosolic enzyme is inhibited principally by 3-phosphoglycerate and this inhibition is only partially relieved by phosphate. Some of the differences reported previously for phosphofructokinases from different plant tissues may, therefore, be due to varying ratios of the cytosolic and plastid isoenzymes. 相似文献

Metabolite-induced activation of hepatic phosphofructokinase 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
C G Proud 《Biochemical and biophysical research communications》1984,118(2):567-572
Hepatic phosphofructokinase, isolated in a medium containing 100 mM (NH4)2SO4, can be activated by ATP. This metabolite-induced activation was investigated in view of the suggestion that it is related to phosphorylation of phosphofructokinase. The results obtained do not support this interpretation. Inhibitors of protein phosphatases (NaF) and kinases (the Mg++-chelator, ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid) did not affect the recovery of phosphofructokinase. In contrast, media of high ionic strength reduced the phosphofructokinase activity and rendered the enzyme sensitive to ATP-induced activation. Activation was also induced by other known effectors of phosphofructokinase (nucleoside triphosphates, fructose bisphosphates) and was not dependent on Mg++-ions. It is suggested that activation represents ligand-induced reversal of the inactivation of phosphofructokinase which occurs at high ionic strength. The differential sensitivity of phosphofructokinase from fed or starved animals to inactivation and reactivation is discussed. 相似文献

Mouse liver mRNA enriched in sequences coding for liver phosphofructokinase by polysome immunoadsorption was used as a template for the synthesis of cDNA. The double-stranded cDNA was inserted into the expression vector lambda gt11 and cloned. Preliminary identification of clones containing cDNA sequences for phosphofructokinase was made by screening the library with anti-rat liver phosphofructokinase serum and horseradish peroxidase-conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG as second antibody. Subsequently, by selecting antibodies specific to fusion proteins expressed by putative clones and by reacting with Western blots of mouse liver proteins several clones were positively identified as containing liver phosphofructokinase sequences. A cDNA clone corresponding to 2708 nucleotides of liver phosphofructokinase mRNA was further characterized and sequenced. The liver phosphofructokinase mRNA has an open reading frame of 2343 nucleotides followed by a 3'-untranslated region of 303 nucleotides. The G/C-rich (76%) portion of the 5'-untranslated region precedes a characteristic translational start site of CCGCC(AUG). The mRNA coding sequence indicates that the liver phosphofructokinase subunit is composed of 780 amino acid residues and has a Mr of 85,000. Comparison of the deduced amino acid sequence of mouse liver phosphofructokinase with the known rabbit muscle phosphofructokinase shows 68% homology. The N-half of the liver phosphofructokinase has conserved substrate binding sites for ATP and fructose-6-P. The 25 C-terminal residues, which contain the ATP inhibitory site, are the least homologous (20%) but contain a putative phosphorylation site (Arg-Arg-X-X-Ser). The liver phosphofructokinase mRNA is under nutritional and hormonal regulation. The liver phosphofructokinase mRNA level increased 4-fold when previously starved mice were refed a high carbohydrate, fat-free diet. This increase in mRNA level was blocked by 50% by the administration of dibutyryl cAMP. The induction of liver phosphofructokinase mRNA by fasting/refeeding was also diminished in streptozotocin diabetic mice. 相似文献

Dissociation of purified phosphofructokinase accompanied with inactivation was analyzed in the absence and presence of aldolase and the data were compared with those obtained with muscle extract. The kinetics of the decrease in enzymatic activity was highly dependent on the dilution factor in both cases, but the inactivation appeared to be biphasic only with extract. The inactivation of the phosphofructokinase was impeded by addition of excess of aldolase. Time courses of kinase inactivation were fitted by alternative kinetic models to characterize the multiple equilibria of several homo- and hetero-oligomers of phosphofructokinase. The combination of modeling data obtained with purified and extract systems suggests that aldolase binds to an intermediate dimer of phosphofructokinase and within this heterocomplex the kinase is completely active. The intermediate dimer is stabilized by association with microtubules and the kinase activity decreased due to dilution can be recovered by addition of excess aldolase. In extract, the phosphofructokinase is of sigmoidal character (Hill coefficient of 2.3); the addition of excess exogenous aldolase to phosphofructokinase resulted in heterocomplex formation displaying Michaelian kinetics. The possible physiological relevance of heterocomplex formation of phosphofructokinase in muscle extract is discussed. 相似文献

Four hypotheses to explain the several hundred fold activation of phosphofructokinase and thus glycolysis in muscle during muscular contraction were examined. They are (1) Adenine nucleotide control. (2) An extension of the above hypothesis with 5′ AMP amplifying the change in glycolytic flux by modifying the phosphofructokinase/fructose 1, 6 diphosphatase cycle. (3) Synergistic activation of phosphofructokinase and compartmentation of phosphofructokinase in the sarcoplasmic reticulum.It is concluded that synergism among the effectors of phosphofructokinase is perhaps the major mechanism by which its activity is increased by several hundred folf during muscular contraction, and Ca++ translocation during muscular contraction can activate 25–30% of total cellular phosphofructokinase that is located in the sacroplasmic reticulum. 相似文献

6-Phosphofructo-1-kinase (phosphofructokinase) (ATP:D-fructose-6-P 1-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.11) can be identified in sheep heart homogenates in two forms, a soluble form and a form bound to the particulate fraction. Homogenates from immediately-dissected hearts have the enzyme in the soluble form, while those collected after a delay have the enzyme bound to the particulate fraction. Aldolase appears to show the same change in its location. Homogenization in a solution with concentrated macromolecular species (20% albumin) results in a greater association of phosphofructokinase and of aldolase to the particulate fraction in homogenates from immediately dissected hearts. Phosphofructokinase activity can be solubilized by two specific means: by high ionic strength, which is dependent upon specific salts; or by low ionic strength, which is dependent upon the presence of phosphofructokinase substrates or modifier ligands. These two means of solubilization are affected differently upon decreasing the pH below 6.9: the solubilization at low ionic strength is prevented, whereas phosphofructokinase is still solubilized by high ionic strength. Under the latter condition, the enzyme is in the inactive dimeric state, which can be activated at an alkaline pH. Myofibrils present in the particulate fraction can account for the binding of phosphofructokinase in heart homogenates. Purified myofibrils, when added to heart supernatant fluids, can bind phosphofructokinase at a slightly acidic pH. Conditions for phosphofructokinase binding to myofibrils, as well as its dissociation, follow what was observed with the binding of phosphofructokinase to the particulate fraction. At an acidic pH, and in the presence of a high concentration of ATP, phosphofructokinase exhibits low activity. However, if phosphofructokinase is assayed under these conditions while bound to myofibrils, the enzyme is activated. 相似文献

Phosphofructokinase isozymes of fetal, neonatal, and adult rat heart and skeletal muscle were characterized by DEAE-cellulose chromatography, agarose gel electrophoresis, and immunodiffusion with specific antisera. The results of these studies indicate that in skeletal muscle and heart the levels of the major liver phosphofructokinase isozyme (PFK-L2) and the muscle phosphofructokinase isozyme (PFK-M) are dependent on the developmental status of the rat. For example, PFK-L2 and PFK-M are present in fetal and early neonatal skeletal muscle; whereas in adult skeletal muscle, only PFK-M is detectable. By DEAE- cellulose chromatography, PFK-L2 activity was estimated to be 2.4 units/g (41% of total phosphofructokinase activity) in fetal muscle, very low and not resolved from PFK-M in 7-day neonatal muscle, and not detectable in adult muscle. Further, PFK-M activity was found to be 3.4 units/g (59% of total phosphofructokinase activity), 10 units/g, and 31.6 units/g in fetal, 7-day neonatal, and adult skeletal muscle, respectively. The developmental changes of heart phosphofructokinase isozymes differ considerably from that of the skeletal muscle phosphofructokinase isozymes. In fetal heart, PFK-L2 is the major phosphofructokinase isozyme (5.6 units/g), constituting 67% of total phosphofructokinase activity. Further, in fetal heart another phosphofructokinase isozyme (33% of total phosphofructokinase activity) was found by DEAE-cellulose chromatography which is different from PFK-M and PFK-L2. In 7-day neonatal and adult heart, PFK-M and PFK-L2 are the only detectable phosphofructokinase isozymes. Varying from 5.6 units/g (44% of total) in 7-day neonatal to 5.9 units/g (40% of total) in adult heart, PFK-L2 activity remains fairly constant. Also, PFK-M is very low in fetal heart but increases within 1 week postpartum to 5.5 units/g (50% of total activity) and to 8.9 units/g (60% of total activity) in adult heart. 相似文献

Escherichia coli K12 contains two phosphofructokinases: phosphofructokinase 1, the most studied one, appears to behave as an allosteric enzyme, while phosphofructokinase 2 presents the features of a Michaelian enzyme. We show the present paper that, in fact, phosphofructokinase 2 also presents some regulatory properties in vitro: at high concentrations, ATP is an inhibitor of phosphofructokinase 2 and it provokes the tetramerization of the dimeric native enzyme. The binding of the two substrates to phosphofructokinase 2 is sequential and ordered as for phosphofructokinase 1, but in the former case fructose 6-phosphate is the first substrate to be bound and ADP the first product to be released. Each dimer of phosphofructokinase 2 binds two molecules of fructose 6-phosphate but only one molecule of the product fructose 1,6-phosphate. Although both phosphofructokinases of E. coli K12 present regulatory properties in vitro, the mechanism of regulation of the activity of the two enzymes is strikingly different. It can be asked whether or not these mechanisms operate in vivo. 相似文献

The significance of the glycolytic and gluconeogenic conversion of fructose-6-phosphate and fructose-1,6-bisphosphate on sugar metabolism was investigated in maize (Zea mays L.) kernels. Maximum extractable activities of the pyrophosphate (PPi) dependent phosphofructokinase, fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase, and the ATP-dependent phosphofructokinase were measured in normal and four maize genotypes, which accumulate relatively more sugars and less starch, to determine how these enzymes are affected by the genetic lesions. Normal endosperm accumulated more dry matter than the high sugar/low starch genotypes, but protein contents did not differ greatly among the genotypes. Mutation of several starch biosynthetic enzymes had little impact on the activities of PPi-dependent phosphofructokinase, fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase, and ATP-dependent phosphofructokinase, despite the altered capacity of the cell to synthesize starch. The PPi-dependent phosphofructokinase appeared to be more active toward glycolysis in all genotypes studied. Activity of the PPi-dependent phosphofructokinase in shrunken (low sucrose synthase genotype) did not differ from the activity in other genotypes, suggesting that the gluconeogenic production of PPi may not be the primary role of the enzyme. As expected, shrunken kernels contained more sugars and less starch than normal kernels throughout kernel development except at the very early stages. Developmental profiles of normal kernels also showed marked changes in the PPi-dependent phosphofructokinase activity, whereas the level of ATP-dependent phosphofructokinase activity remained relatively steady during kernel development. In addition, the ATP-dependent phosphofructokinase, and not the PPi-dependent phosphofructokinase, appeared to correlate more closely with respiration rate. These findings suggest that glycolysis catalyzed by the ATP-dependent phosphofructokinase may serve primarily to support energy production, and glycolysis catalyzed by the PPi-dependent phosphofructokinase may contribute mainly to generation of biosynthetic intermediates. 相似文献

Phosphofructokinase is known to associate with the human erythrocyte membrane both in vitro and in vivo. Such association activates the enzyme in vitro by relieving the allosteric inhibition imposed by ATP (Karadsheh, N.S., and Uyeda, K. (1977) J. Biol. Chem. 252, 7418-7420). We now demonstrate that ADP, ATP, and NADH, all of which are known to bind to the enzyme's adenine nucleotide activation site, are particularly potent in eluting the enzyme from the membrane. In addition, both inside-out red cell membrane vesicles and a 23-kDa fragment containing the amino terminus of the membrane protein, band 3, cause a slow, partial, and reversible inactivation of phosphofructokinase. The dependence of the residual phosphofructokinase activity on phosphofructokinase concentration demonstrates that inactivation occurs through the dissociation of active tetramers to inactive dimers. Dimers of phosphofructokinase associate with the membrane more avidly than tetramers. The kinetics of phosphofructokinase inactivation are consistent with the dissociation of tetramers in solution followed by the binding of dimers to the membrane. There is no indication of an association equilibrium between tetramers and dimers of phosphofructokinase bound to the membrane. Taken together, these results suggest that the amino-terminal segment of band 3 binds to the adenine nucleotide activation site, which is thought to be located in a cleft between the dimeric subunits of phosphofructokinase. As a result, band 3 not only rapidly activates the phosphofructokinase tetramer but also slowly inactivates the enzyme by preferentially binding its dissociated subunits. 相似文献

To clarify the physiological role of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate in the perinatal switching of myocardial fuels from carbohydrate to fatty acids, the kinetic effects of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate on phosphofructokinase purified from fetal and adult rat hearts were compared. For both enzymes at physiological pH and ATP concentrations, 1 microM fructose 2,6-bisphosphate induced a greater than 10-fold reduction in S0.5 for fructose 6-phosphate and it completely eliminated subunit cooperativity. Fructose 2,6-bisphosphate may thereby reduce the influence of changes in fructose 6-phosphate concentration on phosphofructokinase activity. Based on double-reciprocal plots and ATP inhibition studies, adult heart phosphofructokinase activity is more sensitive to physiological changes in ATP and citrate concentrations than to changes in fructose 2,6-bisphosphate concentrations. Fetal heart phosphofructokinase is less sensitive to ATP concentration above 5 mM and equally sensitive to citrate inhibition. The fetal enzyme has up to a 15-fold lower affinity for fructose 2,6-bisphosphate, rendering it more sensitive to changes in fructose 2,6-bisphosphate concentration than adult heart phosphofructokinase. Together, these factors allow greater phosphofructokinase activity in fetal heart while retaining sensitive metabolic control. In both fetal and adult heart, fructose 2,6-bisphosphate is primarily permissive: it abolishes subunit cooperativity and in its presence phosphofructokinase activity is extraordinarily sensitive to both the energy balance of the cell as reflected in ATP concentration and the availability of other fuels as reflected in cytosolic citrate concentration. 相似文献

Vasopressin stimulates glycolysis in hepatocytes prepared from fed rats, or from starved rats when incubated with glucose. It causes the stimulation of phosphofructokinase activity and the accumulation of a stimulator of phosphofructokinase, which is probably fructose 2,6-bisphosphate, the recently discovered stimulatory of phosphofructokinase. 相似文献

Perfusion of the isolated rat heart with Ca2+ concentrations exceeding 3 mM activated phosphofructokinase and phosphorylase, and decreased the concentration of cyclic AMP. Half-maximal activation of phosphofructokinase occurred at 5 mM-CaCl2; significant activation of phosphorylase did not occur until the concentration of CaCl2 exceeded 12 mM. The time course for the activation of phosphofructokinase at 12 mM-CaCl2 indicated that maximal activation occurred within 2 min; when the perfusion-medium Ca2+ concentration was re-adjusted to 3 mM, the phosphofructokinase activity returned to pre-activation values within 30 s. The addition of Ca2+ to extracts of heart did not activate phosphofructokinase. The activation of phosphofructokinase by sub-maximal doses of adrenaline and Ca2+ were not additive. The activation of phosphofructokinase by 1 microM-adrenaline + 10 microM-propranolol and by 1 microM-isoprenaline was inhibited by high concentrations of K+ (22-56 mM). The activation of phosphofructokinase by 1 microM-adrenaline + 10 microM-propranolol, 12 mM-CaCl2 and by 1 microM-isoprenaline was blocked by the slow Ca2+-channel blocker nifedipine. These findings suggest that both the beta- and alpha-adrenergic mechanisms for the activation of rat heart phosphofructokinase involve an increase in the myoplasmic Ca2+ concentration. This increase may result from an inhibition of Ca2+ efflux or a stimulation of Ca2+ influx. 相似文献

Phosphofructokinase from the liver fluke, Fasciola hepatica, was phosphorylated by the catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase isolated from this organism. Phosphorylated fluke phosphofructokinase had a sevenfold lower apparent Km for its substrate, Fru-6-P, and an eightfold higher 0.5 Vopt for ATP, the enzyme's primary inhibitor, than native phosphofructokinase. Activation of fluke phosphofructokinase following phorphorylation by a mammalian protein kinase catalytic subunit was previously reported (E. S. Kamemoto and T. E. Mansour (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 4346-4351). The catalytic subunit of protein kinase isolated from the liver fluke phosphorylated sites on fluke phosphofructokinase similar to those phosphorylated by the mammalian enzyme. Maximal phosphate incorporation was 0.3 mol P/mol of protomer. The native enzyme was found to contain 1.3 mol P/mol of protomer. In contrast to fluke phosphofructokinase, activity of the mammalian heart enzyme was slightly decreased following phosphorylation. The dependence of allosteric interaction on an acidic pH observed with the mammalian phosphofructokinase was not observed with the fluke enzyme. Unlike mammalian phosphofructokinase, allosteric kinetics of the fluke enzyme was observed at alkaline pH (8.0). Fluke phosphofructokinase was found to be relatively insensitive to inhibition by citrate, a known potent inhibitor of the mammalian enzyme. Fru-2,6-P2, a potent modifier of phosphofructokinase from a variety of sources, was found to activate both native and phosphorylated fluke phosphofructokinase. The most potent activators of fluke phosphofructokinase were found to be Fru-2,6-P2, AMP, and phosphorylation. The endogenous level of Fru-2,6-P2 in the flukes was determined to be 29 +/- 1.3 nmol/g wet wt, a level that may well modulate enzyme activity. Fru-6-P,2-kinase, the enzyme responsible for synthesis of Fru-2,6-P2, was found to be present in the flukes. Our results suggest physiological roles for phosphorylation and Fru-2,6-P2 in regulation of fluke phosphofructokinase. 相似文献

The precipitation profiles of phospofructokinase obtained by addition of poly(ethylene glycol) to haemolysates of erythrocytes, reticulocytes and bone marrow are displaced towards higher polymer concentrations when the pH decreases from 6 to 5 or increases from 6 to 8. In the pH range 5 to 8, the concentration of polymer required to provide any level of precipitation follows the order erythrocytic less than reticulocytic less than bone marrow phosphofructokinase. The precipitation of erythrocytic and reticulocytic phosphofructokinase is enhanced by the presence of F6P and ATP. No effect is observed for bone marrow phosphofructokinase. These results are consistent with an isoenzymatic variation of phosphofructokinase in erythrocytes, reticulocytes and bone marrow cells. 相似文献

A marked erythrocyte phosphofructokinase deficiency was detected in a healthy man. His enzymatic activity was only 25% that of normal controls. His father and his son had erythrocytic phosphofructokinase activities of 50-55% that of normal controls. The chromatographic separation of erythrocytic phosphofructokinase isozymes, as well as immunological studies revealed a decrease in L-type phosphofructokinase activity. The lowered erythrocytic L-type phosphofructokinase activity was not accompanied by a decreased level of L-type phosphofructokinase in proteins. The L/M subunit ratio was similar to that of normal subjects. The defect resulted from the synthesis of stable L-type mutant subunit with high electrophoretic mobility. White blood cells, which synthesize mostly the same isozyme as L-type phosphofructokinase also showed a decreased activity and a high electrophoretic mobility. In spite of this important deficiency, and of significant metabolic alterations (a slight decrease in ATP; 2,3-diphosphoglycerate; triose phosphate), hemolysis did not appear in the propositus. 相似文献

We have examined the effects of glucose and lactate, the products of the gluconeogenic-glycolytic pathways, on phosphofructokinase flux during gluconeogenesis in hepatocytes from fasted rats. With dihydroxyacetone as substrate, phosphofructokinase flux is rather active. Addition of lactate, at concentrations of 5-10 mM, causes a lowering of this flux to the levels found when lactate alone is the substrate. Inhibitor studies suggest that a mitochondrially formed metabolite of lactate is the likely effector involved. Addition of glucose (10mM or greater) to dihydroxyacetone causes an increase in phosphofructokinase flux. Only small effects are seen unless the cells are preincubated with glucose, in which case an estimated 2-3-fold increase in phosphofructokinase flux occurs. 相似文献
