The kinetic and molecular properties of AMP deaminase [AMP aminohydrolase, EC 3.5.4.6] purified from baker's yeast (saccharomyces cerevisiae) were investigated. The enzyme was activated by ATP and dATP, but inhibited by Pi and GTP in an allosteric manner. Alkali metal ions and alkaline earth metal ions activated the enzyme to various extent. Kinetic negative cooperativity was observed in the binding of nucleoside triphosphates. Kinetic analysis showed that the number of interaction sites for AMP (substrate) and Pi (inhibitor) is two each per enzyme molecule. The molecular weight of the native enzyme was estimated to be 360,000 by sedimentation equilibrium studies. On polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate, the enzyme gave a single polypeptide band with a molecular weight of 83,000, suggesting that the native enzyme has a tetrameric structure. Baker's yeast AMP deaminase was concluded to consist of two "promoter" units which each consist of two polypeptide chains with identical molecular weight.  相似文献

Human adenosine deaminase. Purification and subunit structure.   总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5  
Human erythrocyte adenosine deaminase has been purified approximately 800,000-fold to apparent homogeneity using antibody affinity chromatography. The enzyme was shown to be a single polypeptide chain with an estimated molecular weight of approximately 38,000. The three electrophoretic forms of erythrocyte adenosine deaminase purified simultaneously by this technique were indistinguishable by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under reducing conditions. Several properties of the highly purified adenosine deaminase including pH optimum, Km for substrate, Ki for product, Stokes radius, sedimentation coefficient, and apparent substrate specificity were identical with the properties observed with an impure preparation of the enzyme.  相似文献

AMP deaminase, the enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of adenosine monophosphate (AMP) to inosine monophosphate (IMP) and ammonia, was purified from the cellular slime mold, Dictyostelium discoideum in the nutrient-deprived state. The native enzyme had an apparent molecular weight of 199,000 daltons. Its apparent Km was 1.6 mM and its Vmax was 1.0 mumol min-1 mg-1, as measured by the release of IMP From AMP. The enzyme, like other AMP deaminases, was found to be activated by ATP, and inhibited either by GTP or inorganic phosphate. It was also specific for the deamination of AMP. Deaminase activity was increased either when vegetative cells were placed in a nutrient-deprived medium (for up to 6 h) or when vegetative cells were treated with the drug hadacidin. In cells actively growing in complete media, enzyme activity was more non-specific, hydrolyzing adenosine as well as AMP. AMP deaminase in D. discoideum appears to be stage-specific and developmentally regulated, possibly serving to regulate the adenylated nucleotide pool and the interconversion to guanylated nucleotides during early morphodifferentiation.  相似文献

Adenosine deaminase was purified 3038-fold to apparent homogeneity from human leukaemic granulocytes by adenosine affinity chromatography. The purified enzyme has a specific activity of 486 mumol/min per mg of protein at 35 degrees C. It exhibits a single band when subjected to sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis, non-denaturing polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis and isoelectric focusing. The pI is 4.4. The enzyme is a monomeric protein of molecular weight 44000. Both electrophoretic behaviour and molecular weight differ from those of the low-molecular-weight adenosine deaminase purified from human erythrocytes. Its amino acid composition is reported. Tests with periodic acid-Schiff reagent for associated carbohydrate are negative. Of the large group of physiological compounds tested as potential effectors, none has a significant effect. The enzyme is specific for adenosine and deoxyadenosine, with Km values of 48 microM and 34 microM respectively. There are no significant differences in enzyme function on the two substrates. erythro-9-(2-Hydroxy non-3-yl) adenine is a competitive inhibitor, with Ki 15 nM. Deoxycoformycin inhibits deamination of both adenosine and deoxyadenosine, with an apparent Ki of 60-90 pM. A specific antibody was developed against the purified enzyme, and a sensitive radioimmunoassay for adenosine deaminase protein is described.  相似文献

Summary A deficiency of the enzyme adenosine deaminase is associated with an autosomal recessive form of severe combined immunodeficiency disease in man. The molecular forms of the normal human enzyme have now been well characterized in an effort to better understand the nature of the enzyme defect in affected patients.In some human tissues adenosine deaminase exists predominantly as a small molecular form while in other tissues a large form composed of adenosine deaminase (small form) and an adenosine deaminase-binding protein predominates. The small form of the enzyme purified to homogeneity by antibody affinity chromatography is a monomer of native molecular weight of 37,600. The adenosine deaminase-binding protein, purified by adenosine deaminase affinity chromatography, appears to be a dimer of native molecular weight 213,000 and contains carbohydrate. Based on direct binding measurements, chemical cross-linking studies and sedimentation equilibrium analyses, small form adenosine deaminase has been shown to combine with purified binding protein in a molar ratio of 2:1 respectively to produce the large form adenosine deaminase.Reduced, but widely ranging levels of adenosine deaminating activity, have been reported in various tissues of adenosine deaminase deficient patients. Further, the characteristics of this residual enzyme activity have been analyzed immunochemically to substantiate genetic heterogeneity in this disorder.While many types of immunodeficiency are currently recognized in man, in most cases the molecular defect is unknown. The discovery of a deficiency of the enzyme, adenosine deaminase, ADA, (EC 3.5.4.4), in some patients with severe combined immunodeficiency disease represented an early clue to the pathogenesis of immune dysfunction at the molecular level1-4. Affected patients with markedly reduced levels of ADA exhibit a defect of both cellular and humoral immunity characterized clinically by severe recurrent infections with a fatal outcome if untreated. Attempts to elucidate the nature of the genetic mutation(s) leading to the reduction of ADA activity in these immunodeficient patients have been complicated in part by an incomplete understanding of the nature of ADA in normal tissues. In this review we will consider the structural characteristics of the normal and mutant forms of ADA as they are currently understood.  相似文献

In fat cells isolated from the parametrial adipose tissue of rats, the addition of purified adenosine deaminase increased lipolysis and cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) accumulation. Adenosine deaminase markedly potentiated cyclic AMP accumulation due to norepinephrine. The increase in cyclic AMP due to adenosine deaminase was as rapid as that of theophylline with near maximal effects seen after only a 20-sec incubation. The increases in cyclic AMP due to crystalline adenosine deaminase from intestinal mucosa were seen at concentrations as low as 0.05 mug per ml. Further purification of the crystalline enzyme preparation by Sephadex G-100 chromatography increased both adenosine deaminase activity and cyclic AMP accumulation by fat cells. The effects of adenosine deaminase on fat cell metabolism were reversed by the addition of low concentrations of N6-(phenylisopropyl)adenosine, an analog of adenosine which is not deaminated. The effects of adenosine deaminase on cyclic AMP accumulation were blocked by coformycin which is a potent inhibitor of the enzyme. These findings suggest that deamination of adenosine is responsible for the observed effects of adenosine deaminase preparations. Protein kinase activity of fat cell homogenates was unaffected by adenosine or N6-(phenylisopropyl)adenosine. Norepinephrine-activated adenylate cyclase activity of fat cell ghosts was not inhibited by N6-(phenylisopropyl)adenosine. Adenosine deaminase did not alter basal or norepinephrine-activated adenylate cyclase activity. Cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activity of fat cell ghosts was also unaffected by adenosine deaminase. Basal and insulin-stimulated glucose oxidation were little affected by adenosine deaminase. However, the addition of adenosine deaminase to fat cells incubated with 1.5 muM norepinephrine abolished the antilipolytic action of insulin and markedly reduced the increase in glucose oxidation due to insulin. These effects were reversed by N6-(phenylisopropyl)adenosine. Phenylisopropyl adenosine did not affect insulin action during a 1-hour incubation. If fat cells were incubated for 2 hours with phenylisopropyl adenosine prior to the addition of insulin for 1 hour there was a marked potentiation of insulin action. The potentiation of insulin action by prior incubation with phenylisopropyl adenosine was not unique as prostaglandin E1, and nicotinic acid had similar effects.  相似文献

The properties of piglet cardiac AMP deaminase were determined and its regulation by pH, phosphate, nucleotides and phosphorylation is described. AMP deaminase purified from the ventricles of newborn piglet hearts displayed hyperbolic kinetics with a Km of 2 mM for 5-AMP. The enzyme had a pH optimum of 7.0 and was strongly inhibited by inorganic phosphate. ATP decreased the Km of the native enzyme 3-fold, but did not significantly block the inhibitory effects of phosphate. Kinetic parameters were not significantly altered in the presence of adenosine, cyclic AMP and NAD+, whereas, the Km was decreased by 50% in the presence of NADH. Piglet cardiac AMP deaminase was phosphorylated by protein kinase C, resulting in a 2-fold increase in Vmax with no change in Km. However, incubation with cAMP-dependent protein kinase did not affect enzyme kinetics. The 80-85 kD protein subunit of piglet cardiac AMP deaminase immunoreacted with antisera raised against human erythrocyte AMP deaminase, rabbit heart AMP deaminase and human recombinant AMP deaminase 3 (isoform E). These results are discussed in relation to in situ AMP deaminase activity in neonatal piglet heart myocytes.  相似文献

The sequencing of the genome of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) identified seven putative adenine/adenosine deaminases and adenosine deaminase-like proteins, none of which have been biochemically characterized. This report describes recombinant expression, purification and characterization of SCO4901 which had been annotated in data bases as a putative adenosine deaminase. The purified putative adenosine deaminase gives a subunit Mr=48,400 on denaturing gel electrophoresis and an oligomer molecular weight of approximately 182,000 by comparative gel filtration. These values are consistent with the active enzyme being composed of four subunits with identical molecular weights. The turnover rate of adenosine is 11.5 s?1 at 30 °C. Since adenine is deaminated ~103 slower by the enzyme when compared to that of adenosine, these data strongly show that the purified enzyme is an adenosine deaminase (ADA) and not an adenine deaminase (ADE). Other adenine nucleosides/nucleotides, including 9-β-D-arabinofuranosyl-adenine (ara-A), 5'-AMP, 5'-ADP and 5'-ATP, are not substrates for the enzyme. Coformycin and 2'-deoxycoformycin are potent competitive inhibitors of the enzyme with inhibition constants of 0.25 and 3.4 nM, respectively. Amino acid sequence alignment of ScADA with ADAs from other organisms reveals that eight of the nine highly conserved catalytic site residues in other ADAs are also conserved in ScADA. The only non-conserved residue is Asn317, which replaces Asp296 in the murine enzyme. Based on these data, it is suggested here that ADA and ADE proteins are divergently related enzymes that have evolved from a common α/β barrel scaffold to catalyze the deamination of different substrates, using a similar catalytic mechanism.  相似文献

Mammalian adenosine deaminase has been shown by genetic and biochemical evidence to be essential for the development of the immune system. For the purpose of studying the function and structure of this enzyme, we have isolated by genetic selection a mouse cell line, B-1/50, in which adenosine deaminase levels were increased 4,300-fold over the parent cell line. The enzyme was purified from these cells in large quantity and high yield by a simple two-step purification scheme. The enzyme derived from the B-1/50 cells was indistinguishable from that of the parental cells as judged by several biochemical criteria. The Km (30 microM) and Ki (4 nM) values using adenosine as substrate and 2'-deoxycoformycin as inhibitor, respectively, were identical for the enzyme derived from the parental cells as well as the adenosine deaminase gene amplification mutants. The enzyme from both cell types exhibited multiple isoelectric focusing forms which co-purified using our purification protocol. Electrophoretic analysis using sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels showed that adenosine deaminase migrated with an apparent molecular weight of 41,000 or 36,000 depending on whether the enzyme was reduced or oxidized, respectively. This shift was reversible, indicating that proteolysis was not responsible for the faster migrating form. Monospecific antibodies raised against purified adenosine deaminase cross-reacted with the enzyme derived from the parental cells and precipitated 37% of the total soluble protein in the B-1/50 cells. Continued genetic selection resulted in the isolation of cells in which adenosine deaminase was overproduced by 11,400-fold and accounted for over 75% of the soluble protein.  相似文献

In Micrococcus sodonensis and some other Micrococcus species, adenosien deaminase is present both as a membran-bound and a soluble enzyme; The membran-bound adenosine deaminase can be extracted with n-butanol, and may account for up to 5% of the total cellular adenosine deaminase activity. In a number oc comparative tests, no differences between the two enzyme forms could be found, thus they are believed to be similar molecular species; The purified membran-bound or soluble enzyme had a molecular weight, obtained by gel-filtration, of 130 000 and was inactive toward adenine and adenine mononucleotides. It appears, therefore, to be more closely related to the calf-intestine enzyme than the Aspergillus oryzae form in respect to size and substrate specificity; Attempts to correlate membrane-bound adenosine deaminase activity with adenosine transport in isolated membrane vesicles of M. sodonensis indicated no obvious relationship between the two activities.  相似文献

Citrate synthase (citrate-oxaloacetate lyase (CoA acetylating), EC 4.1.3.7) has been purified to electrophoretic homogeneity from a marine Pseudomonas. The enzyme was made up of identical subunits, with a molecular wieght of about 53 000, as determined by sodium dodecyl sulphate - polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The native enzyme (citrate synthase II, CS II) could be dissociated by dialysis against 20 mM phosphate (Pi), pH 7; the enzyme thus obtained (citrate synthase I, CS I) was still active, but presented different molecular weight and kinetic and regulatory properties. CS II was activated by adenosine monophosphate (AMP), Pi, and KCl, and inhibited by reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), being apparently insensitive to adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and adenosine diphosphate (ADP). The inhibition by NADH was completely counteracted by 0.1 mM AMP, but not by 50 mM Pi or 0.1 M KCl. The activation by KCl and Pi, or by KCl and AMP was nearly additive, whereas that by AMP and Pi was not. The activators acted essentially by increasing Vmax, although they also caused a decrease in the Km values. CS I was inhibited by ATP, ADP, AMP, and KCl, and was insensitive to NADH. CS I could be reassociated after elimination of Pi by dialysis, regaining the higher molecular weight and the activation by AMP characteristic of CS II.  相似文献

Selective adenosine release from human B but not T lymphoid cell line   总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5  
Intracellular adenosine formation and release to extracellular space was studied in WI-L2-B and SupT1-T lymphoblasts under conditions which induce or do not induce ATP catabolism. Under induced conditions, B lymphoblasts but not T lymphoblasts, release significant amounts of adenosine, which are markedly elevated by adenosine deaminase inhibitors. In T lymphoblasts, under induced conditions, only simultaneous inhibition of both adenosine deaminase activity and adenosine kinase activities resulted in small amounts of adenosine release. Under noninduced conditions, neither B nor T lymphoblasts release adenosine, even in the presence of both adenosine deaminase or adenosine kinase inhibitors. Comparison of B and T cell's enzyme activities involved in adenosine metabolism showed similar activity of AMP deaminase, but the activities of AMP-5'-nucleotidase, adenosine kinase and adenosine deaminase differ significantly. B lymphoblasts release adenosine because of their combination of enzyme activities which produce or utilize adenosine (high AMP-5'-nucleotidase and relatively low adenosine kinase and adenosine deaminase activities). Accelerated ATP degradation in B lymphoblasts proceeds not only via AMP deamination, but also via AMP dephosphorylation into adenosine but its less efficient intracellular utilization results in the release of adenosine from these cells. In contrast, T lymphoblasts release far less adenosine, because they contain relatively low AMP-5'-nucleotidase and high adenosine kinase and adenosine deaminase activities. In T lymphoblasts, AMP formed during ATP degradation is not readily dephosphorylated to adenosine but mainly deaminated to IMP by AMP deaminase. Any adenosine formed intracellularly in T lymphoblasts is likely to be efficiently salvaged back to AMP by an active adenosine kinase. In general, these results may suggest that adenosine can be produced only by selective cells (adenosine producers) whereas other cells with enzyme combination similar to SupT1-T lymphoblasts can not produce significant amounts of adenosine even in stress conditions.  相似文献

An enzyme that catalyzed the deamination of adenosine 3′-phenylphosphonate was purified from squid liver to homogeneity as judged by SDS-PAGE. The molecular weight of the enzyme was estimated to be 60,000 by SDS-PAGE and 140,000 by Sephadex G-150 gel filtration. The enzyme deaminated adenosine, 2′-deoxyadenosine, 3′-AMP, and 2′,3′-cyclic AMP, but not adenine, 5′-AMP, 3′,5′-cyclic AMP, ADP, or ATP. The apparent Km and Vmax at pH 4.0 for these substrates were comparable (0.11-0.34mM and 179-295 μmol min?1 mg?1, respectively). The enzyme had maximum activity at pH 3.5-4.0 for adenosine 3′-phenylphosphonate, at pH 5.5 for adenosine and 2′-deoxyadenosine, and at pH 4.0 for 2′,3′-cyclic AMP and 3′-AMP when the compounds were at concentration of 0.1 mM. The Km at 4.0 and 5.5 for each substrate varied, but the Vmax were invariant. These results indicated that the squid enzyme was a novel adenosine (phosphate) deaminase with a unique substrate specificity.  相似文献

Adenosine deaminase is a purine salvage enzyme that catalyzes the deamination of adenosine and deoxyadenosine. Deficiency of the enzyme activity is associated with T-cell and B-cell dysfunction. Mutant adenosine deaminase has been isolated from heterozygous and homozygous deficient lymphoblast cell lines with the aid of an affinity matrix consisting of coformycin (a potent inhibitor of the enzyme) as the affinity ligand, bound to 3,3'-iminobispropylamine-derivatized Sepharose. Routinely, 80-90% of adenosine deaminase in crude cell homogenates could be bound to the material. Adenosine deaminase was specifically eluted by enzyme inhibitors or less efficiently by high substrate concentrations. Protein preparations isolated from several different deficient cell lines were highly purified and exhibited molecular weights identical to wild-type adenosine deaminase. This method produces a protein that is suitable for structural studies.  相似文献

Adenosine deaminase (adenosine aminohydrolase, EC 3.5.4.4) has been purified from human erythrocytes using a simple chromatographic procedure. Purified enzyme was obtained from individuals who were homozygous for the principal isozyme (ADA 1) as well as from individuals who were heterogyzous for the major variant (ADA 2-1). Although ADA 1 and ADA 2-1 are electrophoretically distinguishable, they have many common physical and catalytic properties. No significant differences between the two isozymic forms were found in measurements of molecular weight, catalytic activity in the presence of various substrates and inhibitors, pH optimum, turnover number, and stability in conditions of both high and low pH. ADA 2-1 was, however, substantially less stable than ADA 1 with respect to thermal denaturation. These studies support the idea that adenosine deaminase activity in erythrocytes is lower in those individuals who possess the variant form of the enzyme.  相似文献

A low molecular weight form of adenosine deaminase from bovine skeletal muscle was purified about 930-fold. The enzyme had a mol. wt of 31,000, a Km value for adenosine of 2.37 X 10(-5) M and a pH optimum at 7.0. This enzyme is very resistant to heat inactivation and does not require metal activators or other dialysable cofactors. A possible role in the post-mortem metabolism of adenine nucleotide in skeletal muscle is discussed.  相似文献

The goal of the research reported here is to identify evolutionarily conserved amino acid residues associated with enzymatic deamination of adenosine. To do this, we isolated molecular clones of the Escherichia coli adenosine deaminase gene by functional complementation of adenosine deaminase deficient bacteria and deduced the amino acid sequence of the enzyme from the nucleotide sequence of the gene. Nucleotide sequence analysis revealed the presence of a 996-nucleotide open reading frame encoding a protein of 332 amino acids having a molecular weight of 36,345. The deduced amino acid sequence of the E. coli enzyme has approximately 33% identity with those of the mammalian adenosine deaminases. With conservative amino acid substitutions the overall sequence homology approaches 50%, suggesting that the structures and functions of the mammalian and bacterial enzymes are similar. Additional amino acid sequence analysis revealed specific residues that are conserved among all three adenosine deaminases and four AMP deaminases for which sequence information is currently available. In view of previously published enzymological data and the conserved amino acid residues identified in this study, we propose a model to account for the enzyme-catalyzed hydrolytic deamination of adenosine. Potential catalytic roles are assigned to the conserved His 214, Cys 262, Asp 295, and Asp 296 residues of mammalian adenosine deaminases and the corresponding conserved amino acid residues in bacterial adenosine deaminase and the eukaryotic AMP deaminases.  相似文献

The effects of pH and KCl on sedimentation properties and SH groups reactivity of rat skeletal muscle AMP deaminase have been investigated. The values obtained for apparent molecular weight are consistent with an association of AMP deaminase subunits in response to increasing KCl concentration. Increasing pH value from 6.0 to 8.0 causes a reduction in the apparent molecular weight of the enzyme at high KCl concentration, which can be interpreted as due to a deprotonation-induced isomerization process. Removal of Zn2+ from AMP deaminase has effect similar to alkalinization in modifying the sedimentation properties of the enzyme. In the native enzyme at high K+ concentration about 7, 9 and 12 SH groups can be titrated with Nbs2, approximately 1, 2 and 4 SH groups reacting as fast sets, at pH 6.0, 7.0 and 8.0, respectively. Substitution of the 12 SH groups reactive with Nbs2 at pH 8.0 has no effect on the pH-dependent allosteric behaviour of the enzyme. Removal of K+ causes considerable changes in the reactivity of AMP deaminase towards Nbs2, unmasking a class of additional SH groups, so that the total number of titratable SH groups approaches that of 30 determined in denaturing conditions. In the enzyme previously treated with N-ethylmaleimide to alkylate the fast reacting class of SH groups, the class of additional SH groups are substituted by Nbs2 at basic pH, but not at acidic pH, with a concomitant reduction of the enzyme activity.  相似文献
