The glpR gene encoding the repressor for the sn-glycerol 3-phosphate regulon of Escherichia coli was cloned downstream from the strong pL promoter of bacteriophage lambda. This allowed overproduction of the repressor upon thermal induction of a cryptic lambda lysogen harboring the cI857 gene. The repressor was purified 40-fold to homogeneity from an induced strain. The purification scheme utilized polyethyleneimine and ammonium sulfate fractionation, followed by phosphocellulose and DEAE-Sephadex chromatography. Purification was monitored by measuring the binding of radiolabeled inducer (sn-glycerol 3-phosphate) to the repressor. The purified repressor migrated as a single band exhibiting a subunit molecular weight of 30,000 assessed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The molecular weight of the repressor under nondenaturing conditions was 100,000-130,000 suggesting the repressor is a tetramer under native conditions. Interaction of the repressor with sn-glycerol 3-phosphate was studied using flow dialysis. Scatchard analysis of the data indicated four binding sites/repressor tetramer and a dissociation constant of 31 microM. Interaction of the repressor with DNA was studied using band-shift electrophoresis. The repressor specifically bound DNA fragments containing the control regions for the glpD, glpK, and glpT-A genes. Binding of DNA by the repressor was diminished in the presence of sn-glycerol 3-phosphate. 相似文献

To further elucidate the mechanisms underlying carbon-partitioning in plants, we established an experimental system by generating
transgenicArabidopsis lines that overexpress both the fructose 6-phosphate, 2-kinase (F6P,2-K) and the fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase (F26BPase) domains.
We also produced knockout transgenic plants for these domains via RNAi and T-DNA tagging. In F6P,2-K overexpressing transgenics,
F6P,2-K activity increased slightly and Fru-2,6-P2 levels were elevated by 80%, compared with the wild type (WT). F26BPase activity was similar between the WT and transgenic
plants. However, when that domain was overexpressed, F26BPase activity was increased by 70% compared with the WT, whereas
F6P,2-K activity was reduced to 85% of the WT level. In knockout and RNAi mutant lines that showed reduced F6P,2-K and F26BPase
activities, levels of Fru-2,6-P2 were only between 3 to 7% of those for the WT. In F6P,2-K overexpressing transgenic lines, the levels of starch, hexose,
and triose phosphates slightly increased, while sucrose content was marginally reduced. In F26BPase overexpressing plants,
however, the levels of soluble sugars and hexose phosphates were slightly increased, but starch and triose phosphate contents
declined. Furthermore, compared with the WT, the levels of soluble sugars rose while starch and hexose phosphate quantities
decreased in 2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphophatase knockout mutants. Therefore, our data reaffirms that Fru-2,6-P2 contributes to the regulation of photosynthetic carbon-partitioning between starch and sucrose inArabidopsis leaves by limiting sucrose synthesis. 相似文献

1. Fructose 6-phosphate, 2-kinase and fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase occurred in Euglena gracilis SM-ZK, and is located in cytosol. 2. Fructose 6-phosphate, 2-kinase and fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase were partially purified, and both enzyme activities were not separated during the partial purification. 3. The pH optimum for fructose 6-phosphate, 2-kinase activity was 7.0. The saturation curve of the enzyme activity for ATP concentration was hyperbolic, and the Km value for the substrate was 0.88 mM. On the other hand, the saturation curve of the enzyme activity for fructose 6-phosphate concentration was sigmoidal, and the K0.5 value for the substrate was 70 microM. 4. The pH optimum for fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase activity was 6.5. The saturation curve for fructose 2,6-bisphosphate concentration was sigmoidal, and the K0.5 value for the substrate was 1.29 microM. Fructose 2,6-bisphosphate showed a substrate inhibition at high concentration over 5 microM, and the enzyme activity was completely inhibited by 20 microM of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate. 相似文献

Periplasmic glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterase of Escherichia coli, a new enzyme of the glp regulon 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16
The promoter-proximal gene (glpT) of the glpT-glpQ operon of Escherichia coli encodes a membrane permease responsible for active transport of sn-glycerol 3-phosphate. Promoter-distal glpQ encodes a periplasmic protein which is not required for active transport of sn-glycerol 3-phosphate (Larson, T.J., Schumacher, G., and Boos, W. (1982) J. Bacteriol. 152, 1008-1021). This periplasmic protein has now been identified as a phosphodiesterase which hydrolyzes glycerophosphodiesters into sn-glycerol 3-phosphate plus alcohol. The enzyme exhibited broad substrate specificity with respect to the alcohol moiety; sn-glycerol 3-phosphate was released from glycerophosphoethanolamine, glycerophosphocholine, glycerophosphoglycerol, and bis(glycerophospho)glycerol. The enzyme was specific for glycerophosphodiesters; bis(p-nitrophenyl)phosphate, a substrate for other phosphodiesterases, was not hydrolyzed. In a coupled spectrophotometric assay utilizing sn-glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase and NAD, apparent activity was optimal at pH 9 and was stimulated by Ca2+. The substrates of the phosphodiesterase had no affinity for the glpT-encoded active transport system. Thus, the glpQ gene product expands the catabolic capability of the glp regulon to include a variety of glycerophosphodiesters. 相似文献

A new type of ribopolynucleotide-synthesizing enzyme was found both on cytoplasmic membranes and in protein-DNA complexes isolated from Escherichia coli. The enzyme was purified by exploiting a specific, reversible enzyme aggregation with ATP and spermidine. The purified enzyme (more than 90% pure) was free from other enzymatic activities such as ATPase and polynucleotide phosphorylase. The enzyme (molecular weight 270,000 ± 15%) contains two kinds of polypeptide chain (molecular weights 91,000 ± 10%, and 45,000 ± 10%) and these polypeptides are not common with those of DNA-dependent RNA polymerase. The enzyme catalyses the synthesis of ribopolynucleotides from nucleoside triphosphates in the presence of 1 mm-MgCl2. Rifampicin and streptolydigin do not affect the enzyme reaction. 相似文献

3-Deoxy-D-manno-octulosonate (KDO)-8-phosphate synthetase has been purified 450-fold from frozen Escherichia coli B cells. The purified enzyme catalyzed the stoichiometric formation of KDO-8-phosphate and Pi from phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) and D-arabinose-5-phosphate. The enzyme showed no metal requirement for activity and was inhibited by 1 mM Cd2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, and Hg2+. The inhibition by Hg2+ could be reversed by dithiothreitol. The optimum temperature for enzyme activity was determined to be 45 degrees C, and the energy of activation calculated by the Arrhenius equation was 15,000 calories (ca. 3,585 J) per mol. The enzyme activity was shown to be pH and buffer dependent, showing two pH optima, one at pH 4.0 to 6.0 in succinate buffer and one at pH 9.0 in glycine buffer. The isoelectric point of the enzyme was 5.1. KDO-8-phosphate synthetase had a molecular weight of 90,000 +/- 6,000 as determined by molecular sieving through G-200 Sephadex and by Ferguson analysis using polyacrylamide gels. Based on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the 90,000-molecular-weight native enzyme was composed of three identical subunits, each with an apparent molecular weight of 32,000 +/- 4,000. The enzyme had an apparent Km for D-arabinose-5-phosphate of 2 X 10(-5) M and an apparent Km for PEP of 6 X 10(-6) M. No other sugar or sugar-phosphate could substitute for D-arabinose-5-phosphate. D-Ribose-5-phosphate was a competitive inhibitor of D-arabinose-5-phosphate, with an apparent Ki of 1 X 10(-3) M. The purified enzyme has been utilized to synthesize millimole quantities of pure KDO-8-phosphate. 相似文献

In Escherichia coli, the GlpT transporter, a member of the major facilitator superfamily, moves external glycerol 3-phosphate (G3P) into the cytoplasm in exchange for cytoplasmic phosphate. Study of intact cells showed that both GlpT and HisGlpT, a variant with an N-terminal six-histidine tag, are inhibited (50% inhibitory concentration approximately 35 microM) by the hydrophilic thiol-specific agent p-mercurichlorobenzosulfonate (PCMBS) in a substrate-protectable fashion; by contrast, two other thiol-directed probes, N-maleimidylpropionylbiocytin (MPB) and [2-(trimethylammonium)ethyl]methanethiosulfonate (MTSET), have no effect. Use of variants in which the HisGlpT native cysteines are replaced individually by serine or glycine implicates Cys-176, on transmembrane helix 5 (TM5), as the major target for PCMBS. The inhibitor sensitivity of purified and reconstituted HisGlpT or its cysteine substitution derivatives was found to be consistent with the findings with intact cells, except that a partial response to PCMBS was found for the C176G mutant, suggesting the presence of a mixed population of both right-side-out (RSO) (resistant) and inside-out (ISO) (sensitive) orientations after reconstitution. To clarify this issue, we studied a derivative (P290C) in which the RSO molecules can be blocked independently due to an MPB-responsive cysteine in an extracellular loop. In this derivative, comparisons of variants with (P290C) and without (P290C/C176G) Cys-176 indicated that this residue shows substrate-protectable inhibition by PCMBS in the ISO orientation in proteoliposomes. Since PCMBS gains access to Cys-176 from both periplasmic and cytoplasmic surfaces of the protein (in intact cells and in a reconstituted ISO orientation, respectively) and since access is unavailable when the substrate is present, we propose that Cys-176 is located on the transport pathway and that TM5 has a role in lining this pathway. 相似文献

Reversible unfolding of rat testis fructose 6-phosphate,2-kinase:fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase in guanidine hydrochloride was monitored by following enzyme activities as well as by fluorescence methodologies (intensity, emission maximum, polarization, and quenching), using both intrinsic (tryptophan) and extrinsic (5((2-(iodoacetyl)amino) ethyl)naphthalene-1-sulfonic acid) probes. The unfolding reaction is described minimally as a 4-state transition from folded dimer-->partially unfolded dimer-->monomer-->unfolded monomer. The partially unfolded dimer had a high phosphatase/kinase ratio due to preferential unfolding of the kinase domain. The renaturation reaction proceeded by very rapid conversion (less than 1 s) of unfolded monomer to dimer, devoid of any enzyme activity, followed by slow (over 60 min) formation of the active enzyme. The recovery rates of the kinase and the phosphatase were similar. Thus, the refolding appeared to be a reversal of the unfolding pathway involving different forms of the transient dimeric intermediates. Fluorescence quenching studies using iodide and acrylamide showed that the tryptophans, including Trp-15 in the N-terminal peptide, were only slightly accessible to iodide but were much more accessible to acrylamide. Fructose 6-phosphate, but not ATP or fructose 2,6-bisphosphate, diminished the iodide quenching, but all these ligands inhibited the acrylamide quenching by 25%. These results suggested that the N-terminal peptide (containing a tryptophan) was not exposed on the protein surface and may play an important role in shielding other tryptophans from solvent. 相似文献

Purification and characterization of myocardial fructose-6-phosphate,2-kinase and fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Fructose-6-P,2-kinase:fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase has been purified to homogeneity from beef heart. The enzyme was bifunctional and the specific activities of the kinase and the phosphatase of the pure enzyme were 60 and 30 milliunits/mg, respectively. The molecular weight of the enzyme was 118,000, consisting of two subunits of 58,000. In some preparations of the enzyme a minor protein with a subunit Mr of 54,000 was present. This minor protein (54,000) was also bifunctional and showed the same immunoreactivity as the major protein. The specific activity of fructose-6-P,2-kinase of the minor component was three times higher than that of the major enzyme (58,000), but fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase activity was the same. These two forms have been separated by phosphocellulose chromatography. The tryptic peptide maps of these enzymes were very similar. The 58,000 enzyme was phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase but the 54,000 enzyme was not. These results indicated that the minor 54,000 protein might be a proteolytically digested form of the 58,000 enzyme. The Km of the kinase for fructose-6-P and ATP was 70 microM and 260 microM, respectively for both the 58,000 and the 54,000 enzymes. Km for fructose-2,6-P2 and Ki for fructose-6-P of the phosphatase was approximately 40 and 11 microM, respectively. The enzyme was phosphorylated by fructose-2,6-P2 but the stoichiometry of the phosphate incorporation was 0.05 mol/mol subunit, while 0.4 mol/mol was incorporated in rat liver enzyme under the same conditions. 相似文献

Purification and characterization of the D-alanyl-D-alanine-adding enzyme from Escherichia coli 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The Escherichia coli D-alanyl-D-alanine-adding enzyme, which catalyzes the final cytoplasmic step in the biosynthesis of the bacterial peptidoglycan precursor UDP-N-acetylmuramyl-L-Ala-gamma-D-Glu-meso-diaminopimelyl-D-Ala-D- Ala, has been purified to homogeneity from an E. coli strain that harbors a recombinant plasmid bearing the structural gene for this enzyme, murF. The enzyme is a monomer of molecular weight 49,000, and it has a turnover number of 784 min-1 for ATP-driven amide bond formation. Experiments monitoring the fate of radiolabeled UDP-N-acetylmuramyl-L-Ala-gamma-D-Glu-meso-2,6-diaminopimelate and D-trifluoroalanine proved that the preceding enzyme in the D-alanine branch pathway, D-alanine:D-alanine ligase (ADP), is capable of synthesizing fluorinated dipeptides, which the D-Ala-D-Ala-adding enzyme can then incorporate to form UDP-N-acetylmuramyl-L-Ala-gamma-D-Glu-meso-2,6-diaminopimelyl-D-++ +trifluoroAla-D- trifluoroAla. 相似文献

The regulation of the Fru-6-P/Fru-2,6-P2 cycle by the cooperation of allosteric and covalent mechanisms was investigated in a reconstituted enzyme system under in vitro conditions. Phosphorylation of the bifunctional enzyme exerts a much stronger effect than sn-glycerol 3-phosphate in lowering the quasi-stationary concentration of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate and in increasing the critical concentration of the fructose phosphates, respectively. However, sn-glycerol 3-phosphate is able to strongly amplify the decrease of the quasi-stationary concentration of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate due to phosphorylation. The experiments can be described by a mathematical model involving rate equations for the dephosphorylated and the phosphorylated PFD-2 and FBPase-2. The results are compared with data from the literature obtained under in vivo conditions. 相似文献

A thermodynamic linked-function analysis is presented of the interactions of MgATP and fructose 6-phosphate (Fru-6-P) with phosphofructokinase (PFK) from Escherichia coli in the absence of allosteric effectors. MgATP and Fru-6-P are shown to bind in random fashion by product inhibition of the back-reaction as well as by the kinetically competent binding of each ligand individually as monitored by the consequent changes in the intrinsic fluorescence of E. coli PFK. When Fru-6-P is saturating, the dissociation of MgATP is sufficiently slow that it cannot achieve a binding equilibrium in the steady state, causing the observed Km (49 microM) to significantly exceed the Kd (1.7 microM) deduced from a thermodynamic linkage analysis. The following features distinguish the interactions of MgATP and Fru-6-P with E. coli PFK: MgATP and Fru-6-P antagonize each other's binding to the enzyme in a saturable manner with an overall apparent coupling free energy equal to +2.5 kcal/mol at 25 degrees C; MgATP induces positive cooperativity in the Fru-6-P binding profile, with the Hill coefficient calculated from the Fru-6-P binding curves reaching a maximum of 3.6 when MgATP is saturating; and MgATP exhibits substrate inhibition at low concentrations of Fru-6-P. Simulations based upon the rate equation pertaining to a two-active-site, two-substrate dimer indicate that these features can all result from two independent couplings: an antagonistic MgATP-Fru-6-P coupling extending at least in part between active sites and a MgATP-induced Fru-6-P-Fru-6-P coupling.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

A phosphatase specific for the hydrolysis of 3-deoxy-d-manno-octulosonate (KDO)-8-phosphate was purified approximately 400-fold from crude extracts of Escherichia coli B. The hydrolysis of KDO-8-phosphate to KDO and inorganic phosphate in crude extracts of E. coli B, grown in phosphate-containing minimal medium, could be accounted for by the enzymatic activity of this specific phosphatase. No other sugar phosphate tested was an alternate substrate or inhibitor of the purified enzyme. KDO-8-phosphate phosphatase was stimulated three- to fourfold by the addition of 1.0 mM Co(+) or Mg(2+) and to a lesser extent by 1.0 mM Ba(2+), Zn(2+), and Mn(2+). The activity was inhibited by the addition of 1.0 mM ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, Cu(2+), Ca(2+), Cd(2+), Hg(2+), and chloride ions (50% at 0.1 M). The pH optimum was determined to be 5.5 to 6.5 in both tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane-acetate and HEPES (N-2-hydroxyethylpiperazine-N'-2-ethanesulfonic acid) buffer. This specific phosphatase had an isoelectric point of 4.7 to 4.8 and a molecular weight of 80,000 +/- 6,000 as determined by molecular sieving and Ferguson analysis. The enzyme appeared to be composed of two identical subunits of 40,000 to 43,000 molecular weight. The apparent K(m) for KDO-8-phosphate was determined to be 5.8 +/- 0.9 x 10(-5) M in the presence of 1.0 mM Co(2+), 9.1 +/- 1 x 10(-5) M in the presence of 1.0 mM Mg(2+), and 1.0 +/- 0.2 x 10(-4) M in the absence of added Co(2+) or Mg(2+). 相似文献

D-Mannitol-1-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.17) and D-glucitol-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.140) were purified to apparent homogeneity in good yields from Escherichia coli. The amino acid compositions, N-terminal amino acid sequences, sensitivities to chemical reagents, and catalytic properties of the two enzymes were determined. Both enzymes showed absolute specificities for their substrates. The subunit molecular weights of mannitol-1-phosphate and glucitol-6-phosphate dehydrogenases were 40,000 and 26,000, respectively; the apparent molecular weights of the native proteins, determined by gel filtration, were 40,000 and 117,000, respectively. It is therefore concluded that whereas mannitol-1-phosphate dehydrogenase is a monomer, glucitol-6-phosphate dehydrogenase is probably a tetramer. These two proteins differed in several fundamental respects. 相似文献

Diffraction-quality crystals of the bifunctional enzyme fructose 6-phosphate, 2-kinase:fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase from rat testis have been obtained. The crystals were grown in the presence of ATP gamma S, fructose 6-phosphate, the detergent n-octylglucoside, and the precipitant polyethylene glycol 4000. The crystals have the symmetry of the trigonal space group P31/221 with a = b = 83.0 A and c = 130.6 A. Flash-frozen crystals diffract to beyond 2.2 A, and native data have been collected. 相似文献
