MDP-1 is a eukaryotic magnesium-dependent acid phosphatase with little sequence homology to previously characterized phosphatases. The presence of a conserved motif (Asp-X-Asp-X-Thr) in the N terminus of MDP-1 suggested a relationship to the haloacid dehalogenase (HAD) superfamily, which contains a number of magnesium-dependent acid phosphatases. These phosphatases utilize an aspartate nucleophile and contain a number of conserved active-site residues and hydrophobic patches, which can be plausibly aligned with conserved residues in MDP-1. Seven site-specific point mutants of MDP-1 were produced by modifying the catalytic aspartate, serine, and lysine residues to asparagine or glutamate, alanine, and arginine, respectively. The activity of these mutants confirms the assignment of MDP-1 as a member of the HAD superfamily. Detailed comparison of the sequence of the 15 MDP-1 sequences from various organisms with other HAD superfamily sequences suggests that MDP-1 is not closely related to any particular member of the superfamily. The crystal structures of several HAD family enzymes identify a domain proximal to the active site responsible for important interactions with low molecular weight substrates. The absence of this domain or any other that might perform the same function in MDP-1 suggests an "open" active site capable of interactions with large substrates such as proteins. This suggestion was experimentally confirmed by demonstration that MDP-1 is competent to catalyze the dephosphorylation of tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins. 相似文献

Fructosamine-3-kinase (FN3K) is a recently described protein-repair enzyme responsible for the removal of fructosamines, which are the products of a spontaneous reaction of glucose with amines. We show here that, compared with glucose, glucose 6-phosphate (Glu-6-P) reacted 3-6-fold more rapidly with proteins and 8-fold more rapidly with N-alpha-t-Boc-lysine, being therefore a more significant intracellular glycating agent than glucose in skeletal muscle and heart. Fructosamine 6-phosphates, which result from the reaction of amines with Glu-6-P, were not substrates for FN3K. However, a phosphatase that dephosphorylates protein-bound fructosamine 6-phosphates was found to be present in rat tissues. This enzyme was purified to near homogeneity from skeletal muscle and was identified as magnesium-dependent phosphatase-1 (MDP-1), an enzyme of the haloacid dehalogenase family with a putative protein-tyrosine phosphatase function. Human recombinant MDP-1 acted on protein-bound fructosamine 6-phosphates with a catalytic efficiency >10-fold higher than those observed with its next best substrates (arabinose 5-phosphate and free fructoselysine 6-phosphate) and >100-fold higher than with protein-phosphotyrosine. It had no detectable activity on fructosamine 3-phosphates. MDP-1 dephosphorylated up to approximately 75% of the fructosamine 6-phosphates that are present on lysozyme after incubation of this protein with Glu-6-P. Furthermore, lysozyme glycated with Glu-6-P was converted by MDP-1 to a substrate for FN3K. We conclude that MDP-1 may act physiologically in conjunction with FN3K to free proteins from the glycation products derived from Glu-6-P. 相似文献

Purification and characterization of a phosphotyrosyl-protein phosphatase from wheat seedlings 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A neutral phosphatase which catalyzes the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenylphosphate has been purified to homogeneity from wheat seedlings. The enzyme is a monomeric glycoprotein exhibiting a molecular weight of 35,000, frictional ratio of 1.22, Stokes' radius of 260 nm, and sedimentation coefficient of 3.2 S. That the enzyme is a glycoprotein is surmised from its chromatographic property on Concanavalin A-Sepharose column. An examination of the substrate specificity indicates that the enzyme exhibits a preference for phosphotyrosine over a number of phosphocompounds, including p-nitrophenylphosphate and several glycolytic intermediates. Both phosphoserine and phosphothreonine are not hydrolyzed by the enzyme. The phosphatase activity is not affected by high concentrations of chelating agents and does not require metal ions. Molybdate, orthovanadate, Zn2+, and Hg2+ are all potent inhibitors of the phosphatase activity. The ability of the phosphatase to dephosphorylate protein phosphotyrosine has been investigated. [32P-Tyr]poly(Glu,Tyr)n, [32P-Tyr]alkylated bovine serum albumin, [32P-Tyr]angiotensin-I, and [32P-Tyr]band 3 (from human erythrocyte) are all substrates of the phosphatase. On the other hand, the enzyme has no activity toward protein phosphoserine and phosphothreonine. Our result further indicates that the neutral phosphatase is distinct from the wheat germ acid phosphatase. The latter enzyme is found to dephosphorylate phosphotyrosyl as well as phosphoseryl and phosphothreonyl groups in proteins. In light of the many similarities in properties to phosphotyrosyl protein phosphatases isolated from several sources, it is suggested that the wheat seedling phosphatase may participate in cellular regulation involving protein tyrosine phosphorylation. 相似文献

Calyculin A and okadaic acid induce contraction in smooth muscle fibers. Okadaic acid is an inhibitor of phosphatase activity and the aims of this study were to determine if calyculin A also inhibits phosphatase and to screen effects of both compounds on various phosphatases. Neither compound inhibited acid or alkaline phosphatases, nor the phosphotyrosine protein phosphatase. Both compounds were potent inhibitors of the catalytic subunit of type-2A phosphatase, with IC50 values of 0.5 to 1 nM. With the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase type-1, calyculin A was a more effective inhibitor than okadaic acid, IC50 values for calyculin A were about 2 nM and for okadaic acid between 60 and 500 nM. The endogenous phosphatase of smooth muscle myosin B was inhibited by both compounds with IC50 values of 0.3 to 0.7 nM and 15 to 70 nM, for calyculin A and okadaic acid, respectively. The partially purified catalytic subunit from myosin B had IC50 values of 0.7 and 200 nM for calyculin A and okadaic acid, respectively. The pattern of inhibition for the phosphatase in myosin B therefore is similar to that of the type-1 enzyme. 相似文献

The major secreted isoenzyme of human prostatic acid phosphatase (PAcP) (EC 3.1.3.2), which catalyses p-nitrophenyl phosphate (PNPP) hydrolysis at acid pH values, was found to have phosphotyrosyl protein phosphatase activity since it dephosphorylated three different phosphotyrosine-containing protein substrates. Several lines of evidence are presented to show that the phosphotyrosyl phosphatase and PAcP are the same enzyme. A highly purified PAcP enzyme preparation which contains a single N-terminal peptide sequence was used to test for the phosphotyrosyl phosphatase activity. Both activities comigrated during gel filtration by high performance liquid chromatography. Phosphotyrosyl phosphatase activity and PNPP acid phosphatase activity exhibited similar sensitivities to different effectors. Both phosphatase activities showed the same thermal stability. Specific anti-PAcP antibody reacted to the same extent with both phosphatase activities. PNPP acid phosphatase activity was competitively inhibited by the phosphotyrosyl phosphatase substrate. To characterize further the phosphotyrosyl phosphatase activity, the Km values using different phosphoprotein substrates were determined. The apparent Km values for phosphorylated angiotensin II, anti-pp60src immunoglobulin G and casein were in the nM range for phosphotyrosine residues, which was about 50-fold lower than the Km for phosphoserine residues in casein. 相似文献

A pea (Pisum sativum L.) nuclear enzyme with protein tyrosine phosphatase activity has been partially purified and characterized. The enzyme has a molecular mass of 90 kD as judged by molecular sieve column chromatography and by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Like animal protein tyrosine phosphatases it can be inhibited by low concentrations of molybdate and vanadate. It is also inhibited by heparin and spermine but not by either the acid phosphatase inhibitors citrate and tartrate or the protein serine/threonine phosphatase inhibitor okadaic acid. The enzyme does not require Ca2+, Mg2+, or Mn2+ for its activity but is stimulated by ethylenediaminetetraacetate and by ethyleneglycolbis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N'-tetraacetic acid. It dephosphorylates phosphotyrosine residues on the four different 32P-tyrosine-labeled peptides tested but not the phosphoserine/threonine residues on casein and histone. Like some animal protein tyrosine phosphatases, it has a variable pH optimum depending on the substrate used: the optimum is 5.5 when the substrate is [32P]tyrosine-labeled lysozyme, but it is 7.0 when the substrate is [32P]tyrosine-labeled poly(glutamic acid, tyrosine). It has a Km of 4 microM when the lysozyme protein is used as a substrate. 相似文献

Two specific alkaline phosphatase forms were identified in the integument of wild-type Ceratitis capitata during transition of larvae to pupae. The separation was achieved by DEAE-cellulose chromatography; alkaline phosphatase 1 and alkaline phosphatase 2 were eluted in 0.1 and 0.4 M KCl, respectively. Both isoenzymes have a molecular weight of approximately 180,000. The pH curve reveals two peaks for both alkaline phosphatases: one at 9.4 and the other at 11.0. The two isoenzymes at both pH optima catalyze the hydrolysis of phosphotyrosine and beta-glycerophosphate, but not phosphoserine, phosphothreonine, ATP, or AMP. However, at pH 9.4, alkaline phosphatase 1 is more effective than ALPase 2 and exhibits a preference for phosphotyrosine. The divalent cations Mn2+, Mg2+, and Ba2+ activate the enzymes, while Cu2+ and Zn2+ are inhibitors for both isoenzymes. Both isoenzymes are inactivated by EDTA. The effect of amino acids on enzyme activity was also tested. Alkaline phosphatase 1 is inhibited by L-tyrosine, while alkaline phosphatase 2 is unaffected. L-Phenylalanine has no effect on either isoenzyme. Both isoenzymes are inhibited by urea and 2-mercaptoethanol. Simultaneous addition of urea and 2-mercaptoethanol reveals that ALPase 1 is more sensitive to these inhibitors than ALPase 2. 相似文献

The haloacid dehalogenase (HAD) superfamily is comprised of structurally homologous enzymes that share several conserved sequence motifs (loops I-IV) in their active site. The majority of HAD members are phosphohydrolases and may be divided into three subclasses depending on domain organization. In classes I and II, a mobile "cap" domain reorients upon substrate binding, closing the active site to bulk solvent. Members of the third class lack this additional domain. Herein, we report the 1.9 A X-ray crystal structures of a member of the third subclass, magnesium-dependent phosphatase-1 (MDP-1) both in its unliganded form and with the product analogue, tungstate, bound to the active site. The secondary structure of MDP-1 is similar to that of the "core" domain of other type I and type II HAD members with the addition of a small, 28-amino acid insert that does not close down to exclude bulk solvent in the presence of ligand. In addition, the monomeric oligomeric state of MDP-1 does not allow the participation of a second subunit in the formation and solvent protection of the active site. The binding sites for the phosphate portion of the substrate and Mg(II) cofactor are also similar to those of other HAD members, with all previously observed contacts conserved. Unlike other subclass III HAD members, MDP-1 appears to be equally able to dephosphorylate phosphotyrosine and closed-ring phosphosugars. Modeling of possible substrates in the active site of MDP-1 reveals very few potential interactions with the substrate leaving group. The mapping of conserved residues in sequences of MDP-1 from different eukaryotic organisms reveals that they colocalize to a large region on the surface of the protein outside the active site. This observation combined with the modeling studies suggests that the target of MDP-1 is most likely a phosphotyrosine in an unknown protein rather than a small sugar-based substrate. 相似文献

Two acid phosphatases have been found in crude extracts of seeds, coleoptiles and leaves of various grass species by means of crossed immunoelectrophoresis.The enzymes, cross-reacting with antibodies raised against proteins of Poa pratensis seeds differ in their binding to con A. The use of affinity chromatography on con A-Sepharose has separated the acid phosphatases into two fractions: the non-binding (acid phosphatase A) and the con A-binding (acid phosphatase B). The con A-binding acid phosphatase B from all tissues was further purified by gel filtration on Biogel P-100 and hydrophobic interaction chromatography on phenyl-Sepharose. Two isoenzymes: acid phosphatase B1 and B2 were obtained. The isoenzymes are glycoproteins containing D-mannose or D-glucose in their carbohydrate moiety. They retained the enzyme activity after binding in macromolecular complex with antibodies or con A. The purified acid phosphatases from all tissues cross-react with monospecific antibodies raised against P. pratensis seeds acid phosphatase B1 indicating the antigenic relationship between the enzymes of various grass species. 相似文献

Summary Endothelial cells contain a variety of specific protein tyrosine phosphatases and an acid phosphatase differing from other
known phosphatases. The highest activity of this acid phosphatase with artificial or unspecific substrates is present in the
afferent arterioles and glomeruli of human kidney, and the activity is inhibited by nephrotoxic fluoride concentrations, suggesting
that it plays a role in circulatory regulation. Here the activity was characterised with physiological substrates. An incubation
mixture containing phosphotyrosine or phosphoserine was stable at pH 5 when phosphate-precipitating lead was chelated with
tartrate. The activities were studied in frozen sections. Only phosphotyrosine was hydrolysed by some cells. High activity
of tartrate-resistant phosphotyrosine phosphatase was present in lymphocytes, endothelial cells of afferent arterioles, and
glomerular mesangial cells of kidney, decidual cells, and alveolar macrophages. In lymphocytes the activity was fluoride-resistant
and vanadate-sensitive, in other cells fluoride- and vanadate-sensitive. In decidual cells and alveolar macrophages, the activity
is due to specific osteoclastic/macrophagic tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase, in lymphocytes to specific protein tyrosine
phosphatases, and in endothelial and mesangial cells to a protein tyrosine phosphatase-like acid phosphatase. The results
suggest that in endothelial cells of the afferent arterioles, mesangial cells, and lymphocytes the cellular activities are
regulated by high constitutive phosphotyrosine phosphatase activity and this may be related to the exceptional cyclosporin
A sensitivity of these cells. 相似文献

Summary It has previously been demonstrated, using an ultracytochemical technique, that the photoreceptive microvilli of crab retinae contain a magnesium-dependent phosphatase that hydrolyses the artificial substrate 4-nitrophenylphosphate. Whilst many phosphatases hydrolyse 4-nitrophenylphosphate, the properties of the microvillar enzyme indicated that it is not a conventional acid or alkaline phosphatase. Using the same technique, it is now shown that a similar activity resides in the rhabdomeric microvilli of both the lateral compound eye and the ventral photoreceptors of Limulus polyphemus as well as in the compound eyes of the freshwater crayfish Cherax destructor and the fly Lucilia cuprina. Control cytochemical procedures performed on crayfish and fly showed that in these species too the activity is magnesium-dependent and is not due to a Na+/K+ ATPase. 相似文献

Treatment of adipocytes with okadaic acid (a specific inhibitor of type 1 and 2a protein phosphatases) resulted in a rapid 8-10-fold stimulation of cell extract myelin basic protein (MBP) kinase activity (t1/2 = 10 min) and kinase activity toward a synthetic peptide RRLSSLRA (S6 peptide) (t1/2 = 5 min). Insulin brought about a smaller stimulation of these two activities (t1/2 = 2.5 min). MBP kinase activity from cells treated with okadaic acid or insulin was resolved by anion exchange chromatography into two well defined peaks; S6 peptide kinase activity was less well resolved. The two partially purified MBP kinases were inactivated by the protein tyrosine phosphatase CD45 or by protein phosphatase 2a (PP-2a). In contrast, partially purified S6 peptide kinase activity was inactivated only by PP-2a or protein phosphatase 1 (PP-1). Furthermore, a 38-kDa protein which co-eluted with one peak of MBP kinase and a 42-kDa protein which co-eluted with the other peak of MBP kinase were phosphorylated on tyrosine after treatment with okadaic acid. These findings illustrate several important points concerning regulation of MBP and S6 peptide kinases. First, these protein kinases are regulated by phosphorylation, and, second, in the absence of hormonal stimuli their activities are strongly suppressed by protein phosphatases. Lastly, the increased tyrosine phosphorylation accompanying the activation of MBP kinases following okadaic acid treatment suggests a role for PP-2a in events that are mediated by tyrosine phosphorylation. 相似文献

In this paper we demonstrate that the cytosofic low-Mr acid phosphatase purified from bovine liver has phosphotyrosine protein phosphatase acitivity on 32P-autophosphorylated epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor. This activity was significantly inhibited by orthovanadate and p-hydroxymercuribenzoate; the latter result indicates that free sulfhydryl groups are required for phosphotyrosine phosphatase activity. The enzyme was active in a broad pH range, with maximum activity between pH 5.5 and 7.5. The apparent Km for 32P-EGF receptor dephosphorylation was 4 nM. The enzyme appeared to be specific for phosphotyrosine in that it dephosphorylated the autophosphorylated EGF receptor and L-phosphotyrosine, but not 32P-Ser-casein, L-phosphoserine or L-phosphothreonine. These data suggest that the cytosolic low-Mr acid phosphatase might play a regulatory role in EGF receptor-dependent transmembrane signalling. 相似文献

Purification and physicochemical characterization of a human placental acid phosphatase possessing phosphotyrosyl protein phosphatase activity 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A 17-kilodalton (kDa) human placental acid phosphatase was purified 21,400-fold to homogeneity. The enzyme has an isoelectric point of pH 7.2 and a specific activity of 106 mumol min-1 mg-1 using p-nitrophenyl phosphate as a substrate at pH 5 and 37 degrees C. This placental acid phosphatase showed activity toward phosphotyrosine and toward phosphotyrosyl proteins. The pH optima of the enzyme with phosphotyrosine and with phosphotyrosyl band 3 (from human red cells) were between pH 5 and 6 and pH 5 and 7, respectively. The Km for phosphotyrosine was 1.6 mM at pH 5 and 37 degrees C. Phosphotyrosine phosphatase activity was not inhibited by tartrate or fluoride, but vanadate, molybdate, and zinc ions acted as strong inhibitors. Enzyme activity was also inhibited by DNA, but RNA was not inhibitory. It is a hydrophobic nonglycoprotein containing approximately 20% hydrophobic amino acids. The average hydrophobicity was calculated to be 903 cal/mol. The absorption coefficient at 280 nm, E1% 1cm, was determined to be 5.7. The optical ellipticity of the enzyme at 222 nm was -5200 deg cm2 dmol-1, which would correspond to a low helical content. Free sulfhydryl and histidine residues were necessary for the enzyme activity. The enzyme contained four reactive sulfhydryl groups. Chemical modification of the sulfhydryls with iodoacetate resulted in unfolding of the protein molecule as detected by fluorescence emission spectroscopy. Antisera against both the native and the denatured protein were able to immunoprecipitate the native enzyme. However, upon denaturation, the acid phosphatase lost about 70% of the antigenic determinants. Both antisera cross-reacted with a single 17-kDa polypeptide on immunoblotting. 相似文献

The distribution of acid phosphatases of intermediate molecular weight was determined in various mammalian tissues. The intermediate-molecular-weight acid phosphatases (designated P-II-1 and 2) comprised about 25% of the p-nitrophenyl phosphatase activity in the supernatant of bovine kidney cortex homogenate. The P-II-1 and 2 purified 2,000 fold showed the pI values of 5.9 and 5.7, respectively, on isoelectric focusing. Apparent molecular weights of both P-II-1 and 2 were estimated to be 42,000 by Sephadex G-100 gel filtration and 44,000 by SDS-polyacrylamide disc gel electrophoresis. Both the enzymes catalyzed the hydrolysis of a wide variety of natural phosphomonoesters, except for the phosphoproteins phosphoserine and o-phosphocholine. The enzymes showed a high activity on pyridoxal phosphate, beta-glycerophosphate, and 2'-AMP. The optimum activity pH was near 5 with p-nitrophenyl phosphate, but was shifted to the neutral range when pyridoxal phosphate was the substrate. The cations Hg2+ and Ag+ had a marked inhibitory effect. Neither enzyme was inhibited significantly by L-(+)-tartrate or pCMB. The two other types of acid phosphatases, the high-molecular-weight (designated P-I) and low-molecular-weight (designated P-III), were also purified to homogeneity from bovine kidney cortex, and were compared with P-II from several aspects including substrate specificity and susceptibility to various compounds. 相似文献

The role of phosphatases in signal transduction 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
D R Alexander 《The New biologist》1990,2(12):1049-1062
The importance of phosphatases in regulating the phosphorylation of proteins involved in cell signaling has been demonstrated by four recent discoveries. First, a new family of receptor-like transmembrane phosphotyrosine phosphatases, highly conserved throughout evolution, was shown to be distributed in a wide variety of tissues. Extensive heterogeneity in the extracellular regions of these molecules points to the existence of a wide diversity of ligands. These ligands are thought to mediate transduction of signals to the cell interior by means of the phosphatase activity occurring within the cytoplasmic domains of the receptor-like transmembrane phosphotyrosine phosphatases. Second, cell-permeable tumor promoters, such as okadaic acid, were shown to be potent phosphatase inhibitors that have multiple effects on signaling pathways. Third, the subunits of the type 2A phosphatase were found to associate with transforming antigens encoded by DNA tumor viruses, indicating a role for phosphatases in mediating abnormal proliferative events. Fourth, several cell-cycle mutants were found to encode phosphatases. This review focuses on the significance of the transmembrane phosphotyrosine phosphatases and on the possible ways in which intracellular phosphatases function in signaling pathways. 相似文献

Isolation and sequencing of a cDNA clone encoding acid phosphatase in rat liver lysosomes 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

A full length cDNA for acid phosphatase in rat liver lysosomes was isolated and sequenced. The predicted amino acid sequence comprises 423 residues (48,332 Da). A putative signal peptide of 30 residues is followed by the NH2-terminal sequence of lysosomal acid phosphatase (45,096 Da). The deduced NH2-terminal 18-residue sequence is identical with that determined directly for acid phosphatases purified from the rat liver lysosomal membranes. The primary structure deduced for acid phosphatase contains 9 potential N-glycosylation sites and a hydrophobic region which could function as a transmembrane domain. It exhibits 89% and 67% sequence similarities in amino acids and nucleic acids, respectively, to human lysosomal acid phosphatase. The amino acid sequence of the putative transmembrane segment shows a complete similarity to that of the human enzyme. Northern blot hybridization analysis identified a single species of acid phosphatase mRNA (2.2 kbp in length) in rat liver. 相似文献

Phosphate is the essential macronutrient required for the growth of all organisms. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, phosphatases are up-regulated, and the level of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is drastically decreased under phosphate-starved conditions. The reduction in the LPA level is attributed to PHM8, a gene of unknown function. phm8Delta yeast showed a decreased LPA-hydrolyzing activity under phosphate-limiting conditions. Overexpression of PHM8 in yeast resulted in an increase in the LPA phosphatase activity in vivo. In vitro assays of the purified recombinant Phm8p revealed magnesium-dependent LPA phosphatase activity, with maximal activity at pH 6.5. The purified Phm8p did not hydrolyze any lipid phosphates other than LPA. In silico analysis suggest that Phm8p is a soluble protein with no transmembrane domain. Site-directed mutational studies revealed that aspartate residues in a DXDXT motif are important for the catalysis. These findings indicated that LPA plays a direct role in phosphate starvation. This is the first report of the identification and characterization of magnesium-dependent soluble LPA phosphatase. 相似文献

An acid phosphatase activity that displayed phosphotyrosyl-protein phosphatase has been purified from bovine cortical bone matrix to apparent homogeneity. The overall yield of the enzyme activity was greater than 25%, and overall purification was approximately 2000-fold with a specific activity of 8.15 mumol of p-nitrophenyl phosphate hydrolyzed per min/mg of protein at pH 5.5 and 37 degrees C. The purified enzyme was judged to be purified based on its appearance as a single protein band on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (silver staining technique). The enzyme could be classified as a band 5-type tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase isoenzyme. The apparent molecular weight of this enzyme activity was determined to be 34,600 by gel filtration and 32,500 by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of reducing agent, indicating that the active enzyme is a single polypeptide chain. Kinetic evaluations revealed that the acid phosphatase activity appeared to catalyze its reaction by a pseudo Uni Bi hydrolytic two-step transfer reaction mechanism and was competitively inhibited by transition state analogs of Pi. The enzyme activity was also sensitive to reducing agents and several divalent metal ions. Substrate specificity evaluation showed that this purified bovine skeletal acid phosphatase was capable of hydrolyzing nucleotide tri- and diphosphates, phosphotyrosine, and phosphotyrosyl histones, but not nucleotide monophosphates, phosphoserine, phosphothreonine, phosphoseryl histones, or low molecular weight phosphoryl esters. Further examination of the phosphotyrosyl-protein phosphatase activity indicated that the optimal pH at a fixed substrate concentration (50 nM phosphohistones) for this activity was 7.0. Kinetic analysis of the phosphotyrosyl-protein phosphatase activity indicated that the purified enzyme had an apparent Vmax of approximately 60 nmol of [32P]phosphate hydrolyzed from [32P]phosphotyrosyl histones per min/mg of protein at pH 7.0 and an apparent Km for phosphotyrosyl proteins of approximately 450 nM phosphate group. In summary, the results of these studies represent the first purification of a skeletal acid phosphatase to apparent homogeneity. Our observation that this purified bovine bone matrix acid phosphatase was able to dephosphorylate phosphotyrosyl proteins at neutral pH is consistent with our suggestion that this enzyme may function as a phosphotyrosyl-protein phosphatase in vivo. 相似文献

An acid phosphatase, designated SapS, hydrolyzing p-nitrophenyl phosphate (pNPP), was identified and characterized from the culture supernatant of a Staphylococcus aureus strain isolated from vegetables. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) analysis of the protein indicated an estimated molecular mass of 30 kDa. The enzyme displayed optimum activity at 40 degrees C and pH 5. Characterization of the phosphatase in a reconstitution assay showed that MgCl2 and Triton X-100, respectively, restored maximal activity, but not CaCl2 The phosphatase activity was affected by EDTA and sodium molybdate. The DNA sequence encoding SapS was cloned and sequenced. The putative acid phosphatase gene encodes a protein of 296 amino acids with a 31-residue signal peptide. Database searches revealed significant structural homology of SapS to several proteins belonging to the bacterial class C family of nonspecific acid phosphatases. Comparison of the sequences indicated that despite a low level of overall conservation between the proteins, four conserved sequence motifs could be identified. 相似文献
