Summary Phosphorylases (EC 2.4.1.1) from potato and rabbit muscle are similar in many of their structural and kinetic properties, despite differences in regulation of their enzyme activity. Rabbit muscle phosphorylase is subject to both allosteric and covalent controls, while potato phosphorylase is an active species without any regulatory mechanism. Both phosphorylases are composed of subunits of approximately 100 000 molecular weight, and contain a firmly bound pyridoxal 5-phosphate. Their actions follow a rapid equilibrium random Bi Bi mechanism. From the sequence comparison between the two phosphorylases, high homologies of widely distributed regions have been found, suggesting that they may have evolved from the same ancestral protein. By contrast, the sequences of the N-terminal region are remarkably different from each other. Since this region of the muscle enzyme forms the phosphorylatable and AMP-binding sites as well as the subunit-subunit contact region, these results provide the structural basis for the difference in the regulatory properties between potato and rabbit muscle phosphorylases. Judged from CD spectra, the surface structures of the potato enzyme might be significantly different from that of the muscle enzyme. Indeed, the subunit-subunit interaction in the potato enzyme is tighter than that in the muscle enzyme, and the susceptibility of the two enzymes toward modification reagents and proteolytic enzymes are different. Despite these differences, the structural and functional features of the cofactor, pyridoxal phosphate, site are surprisingly well conserved in these phosphorylases. X-ray crystallographic studies on rabbit muscle phosphorylase have shown that glucose-1-phosphate and orthophosphate bind to a common region close to the 5-phosphate of the cofactor. The muscle enzyme has a glycogen storage site for binding of the enzyme to saccharide substrate, which is located away from the cofactor site. We have obtained, in our reconstitution studies, evidence for binding of saccharide directly to the cofactor site of potato phosphorylase. This difference in the topography of the functional sites explains the previously known different specificities for saccharide substrates in the two phosphorylases. Based on a combination of these and other studies, it is now clear that the 5-phosphate group of pyridoxal phosphate plays a direct role in the catalysis of this enzyme. Information now available on the reaction mechanism of phosphorylase is briefly described. 相似文献

Three peaks of protein phosphatase (phosphoprotein phosphohydrolase, EC 3.1.3.16) activity (fractions a, b and c) acting on muscle phosphorylase (1,4-alpha-D-glucan:orthophosphate alpha-D-glucosyltransferase, EC 2.4.1.1) were separated by DEAE-cellulose chromatography of yeast extracts. In contrast to fractions a and b, only fraction c was able to liberate phosphate from 32P-labelled inactivated yeast phosphorylase. The activity of fraction c on both substrates was totally dependent on the presence of bivalent metal ions (Mg2+, Mn2+), and was activated by Mg . ATP. Following freezing in the presence of mercaptoethanol, fractions a and b were also able to dephosphorylate yeast phosphorylase. Rabbit muscle phosphoprotein phosphatase inhibitors 1 and 2 showed that yeast phosphatases acting on muscle phosphorylase were inhibited by inhibitor 2 but not by inhibitor 1. The action of fraction c on yeast phosphorylase was not inhibited by either inhibitor. The native yeast phosphorylase phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.17) was purified 8000-fold by ion-exchange chromatography, casein-Sepharose chromatography and Sephadex G-200 gel filtration. The purified enzyme was unable to dephosphorylate rabbit muscle phosphorylase a, but acted on casein phosphate (Km 3.3 mg/ml). Molecular weight was estimated to be 78 000 and pH optimum 6.5-7.5. Activity of the enzyme was dependent on bivalent metal ions (Mg2+, Mn2+) and was inhibited by fluoride (Ki 20 mM) and succinate (Ki 10 mM). 相似文献

The complete amino acid sequence of potato alpha-glucan phosphorylase has been determined. The monomer contains 916 amino acids with a molecular weight of 103,916. About one-fourth of the amino-terminal threonine is blocked by an acetyl group. Sequence comparison among phosphorylases from potato tuber, rabbit muscle, and Escherichia coli reveals the presence of a characteristic 78-residue insertion in the middle of the polypeptide chain of the potato enzyme. Except for the large inserted portion, 51 and 40% of the amino acids in the potato enzyme are identical with the rabbit muscle and E. coli enzymes, respectively. The regions relevant to the regulation of activity are completely different among the three enzymes, whereas those involved in the catalytic reaction are well conserved. The potato enzyme sequence is consistent with the tertiary structure of the rabbit muscle enzyme. The 78-residue insertion is located at the junction of the amino- and carboxyl-terminal domains on the molecular surface near the glycogen storage site. This insertion could account for the substrate discrimination of the potato enzyme. The molecular evolution of phosphorylase is discussed based on the presence of the large insertion of the potato enzyme. 相似文献

Photooxidation of alpha-glucan phosphorylases from rabbit muscle and potato tubers in the presence of rose bengal leads to a rapid loss of enzymatic activity which follows first-order kinetics. The process is pH dependent, being more rapid at higher pH. The inactivation is closely related to the destruction of histidine residues in the enzyme. It is suggested that histidine residues are largely responsible for the loss of enzymatic activity in the photooxidation. The inactivation of potato phosphorylase is retarded by substrates, whereas that of the muscle enzyme is not. The rate of photoinactivation of muscle phosphorylase b is increased with AMP, and decreased with ATP, ADP, IMP and glucose-6-P. This finding is considered to be closely related to the allosteric transition of phosphorylase. 相似文献

All of the -glucan phosphorylases so far purified from diverse origins have similar molecular and catalytic properties, whereas they differ in regulatory properties and glucan specificities. The activity of the rabbit muscle enzyme is regulated by phosphorylation-dephosphorylation and activated by AMP. On the other hand, the potato and Escherichia coli enzymes exist only in the active form, and are unaffected by the nucleotide. To elucidate the structural bases for these differences, we have determined the complete amino acid sequence of potato phosphorylase and compared it with those of the rabbit muscle and E. coli enzymes. The monomer of the potato enzyme contains 916 amino acids with a molecular weight of 103,916. About one-fourth of the amino-terminal threonine is blocked by an acetyl group. Sequence comparison among these enzymes reveals the presence of a characteristic 78-residue insertion in the middle of the polypeptide chain of the potato enzyme. Except for the large inserted portion, 51 and 40% of the amino acids in the potato enzyme are identical with the rabbit muscle and E. coli enzymes, respectively. The regions relevant to the regulation of the activity are completely different among the three enzymes, whereas those involved in the catalytic reaction are well conserved. The potato enzyme sequence is consistent with the tertiary structure of the rabbit muscle enzyme. The 78-residue insertion is located at the junction of the amino- and carboxyl-terminal domains on the molecular surface near the glycogen-storage site. This insertion could account for the substrate discrimination of the potato enzyme. The molecular evolution of phosphorylase is discussed based on the structural comparison among the three enzymes. 相似文献

Crystallization of pig skeletal phosphorylase b. Purification, physical and catalytic characterization 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
A new method for purification and crystallization of pig skeletal muscle phosphorylase b is presented. The ease of crystallization in the presence of 1 mM AMP and 1 mM spermine has permitted the study of some physical, chemical and enzymatic properties of the enzyme. The crystalline pig phosphorylase b gave a single band on SDS polyacrylamide gels of the same mobility as rabbit muscle phosphorylase subunit. Ultracentrifugation experiments showed that pig phosphorylase b exists in a dimeric form (S20,w = 8.4 S). No association occurred at 20 degrees C under conditions where rabbit phosphorylase b can be tetramerized; pig phosphorylase b was only 30% associated from dimer to tetramer at 13 degrees C. Pig phosphorylase b is highly stable to freezing and its specific activity did not change appreciably upon prolonged storage in the cold. Pig and rabbit phosphorylases b have comparable Vmax and Km values towards the substrate and the activator. However, there is an essential difference between the two enzymes in that pig phosphorylase b is not significantly inhibited by glucose 6-phosphate, which is a powerful inhibitor of the rabbit enzyme. Two different crystal forms of pig phosphorylase b were obtained which are small for X-ray diffraction studies. Diffusion of spermine into tetragonal crystals of rabbit phosphorylase b resulted in a difference Fourier synthesis at 3 A resolution that showed no strong indication of specific binding. 相似文献

6-Fluoropyridoxal phosphate (6-FPLP) has been synthesized. Its properties were studied, and it was used, along with 6-fluoropyridoxal (6-FPAL), to reconstitute apophosphorylase b. Kinetic studies of the resulting enzymes showed that phosphorylases reconstituted with 6-FPLP and 6-FPAL have characteristics similar to those of native and pyridoxal enzymes, respectively, except that the former two enzymes have lower Vmax values. 19F NMR and UV spectra of 6-FPLP phosphorylase showed that the coenzyme forms a neutral enolimine Schiff base. Because the UV and fluorescence spectra of 6-FPLP phosphorylase are comparable to those obtained with native phosphorylase, it further confirms the postulate that pyridoxal phosphate forms a neutral enolimine Schiff base in phosphorylase. The results suggest that the 3-OH group is protonated and the pyridine nitrogen unprotonated in both 6-FPLP phosphorylase and native enzyme. 19F NMR study of 6-FPLP- and 6-FPAL-reconstituted phosphorylases in the inactive and active states indicates that the protein structure near the coenzyme binding site undergoes certain changes when these enzymes are activated by the substrates and AMP. The comparison of the properties of 6-FPLP-reconstituted and native phosphorylases implies that the ring nitrogen of the coenzyme PLP in phosphorylase may interact with the protein during catalysis, and this interaction is important for efficient catalysis by phosphorylase. 相似文献

Water-soluble carbodiimide (1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide) (EDC) and glycine ethyl ester (GEE) as a nucleophile were used to modify the essential carboxyl group of phosphorylases. The inactive b form of the muscle phosphorylase was modified faster than the active a form and potato phosphorylases. Use of N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-ethylenediamine (TEMED)-HCl buffer system (pH 6.2) resulted in a remarkable difference from the previous results obtained with phosphate and beta-glycerophosphate buffer systems. That is, the substrate glucose 1-phosphate gave the best protection of the three phosphorylase activities. Glucose and glycogen were also effective to retard the inactivation of muscle phosphorylases, though glycogen was not effective for the potato enzyme. The EDC-GEE-modified phosphorylase b retained the affinity for AMP-Sepharose, though partially modified enzyme completely lost the homotropic cooperativity. Phosphorylase b was subjected to differential labeling with [14C]GEE. A labeled peptide was obtained after CNBr cleavage and peptic digestions, and corresponded to the catalytic site sequence surrounding the GEE-substituted Asp 661 and Glu 664. Either or both of these EDC-modified carboxyl residues may have an important role in the catalytic reaction. 相似文献

Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) starch phosphorylase cDNA clones were isolated by screening an expression library prepared from the young root poly(A)+ RNA successively with an antiserum, a monoclonal antibody, and a specific oligonucleotide probe. One cDNA clone had 3292 nucleotide residues in which was contained an open reading frame coding for 955 amino acids. This sequence was compared with those of potato (916 residues plus 50-residue putative transit peptide) and rabbit muscle (841 residues) phosphorylases. The sweet potato phosphorylase has an overall structural feature highly homologous to that reported for potato phosphorylase, in conformity with the finding that they belong to the same class of plant phosphorylase. High divergencies of the two enzymes are found in the about 70 residue N-termini each including a putative transit peptide, and the midchain 78 residue insert typical of type I plant phosphorylase. We consider that the very high dissimilarity found in the midchain inserts is related to the difference in proteolytic lability of the two plant phosphorylases. Some structural features of the cDNA clone were also discussed. 相似文献

Liver and muscle glycogen phosphorylases, which are products of distinct genes, are both activated by covalent phosphorylation, but in the unphosphorylated (b) state, only the muscle isozyme is efficiently activated by the allosteric activator AMP. The different responsiveness of the phosphorylase isozymes to allosteric ligands is important for the maintenance of tissue and whole body glucose homeostasis. In an attempt to understand the structural determinants of differential sensitivity of the muscle and liver isozymes to AMP, we have developed a bacterial expression system for the liver enzyme, allowing native and engineered proteins to be expressed and characterized. Engineering of the single amino acid substitutions Thr48Pro, Met197Thr and the double mutant Thr48Pro, Met197Thr in liver phosphorylase, and Pro48Thr in muscle phosphorylase, did not qualitatively change the response of the two isozymes to AMP. These sites had previously been implicated in the configuration of the AMP binding site. However, when nine amino acids among the first 48 in liver phosphorylase were replaced with the corresponding muscle phosphorylase residues (L1M2-48L49-846), the engineered liver enzyme was activated by AMP to a higher maximal activity than native liver phosphorylase. Interestingly, the homotropic cooperativity of AMP binding was unchanged in the engineered phosphorylase b protein, and heterotropic cooperativity between the glucose-1-phosphate and AMP sites was only slightly enhanced. The native liver, native muscle and L1M2-48L49-846 phosphorylases were converted to the a form by treatment with purified phosphorylase kinase; the maximal activity of the chimeric a enzyme was greater than the native liver a enzyme and approached that of muscle phosphorylase a. From these results we suggest that tissue-specific phosphorylase isozymes have evolved a complex mechanism in which the N-terminal 48 amino acids modulate intrinsic activity (Vmax), probably by affecting subunit interactions, and other, as yet undefined regions specify the allosteric interactions with ligands and substrates. 相似文献

Activity can be induced in potentially active rabbit skeletal muscle phosphorylase monomers covalently bound to Sepharose by noncovalent interaction with soluble subunits carrying inactive pyridoxal 5'-phosphate analogs or even salicyladlehyde. These analogs are themselves incapable of reconstituting active holophorphorylase from apophosphorylase. Phosphorylases with one intrinsically inactive and one potentially active subunit have about one half of the activity of the native phosphorylase dimer. The usefulness of this technique for subunit complementation was demonstrated by forming hybrid phosphorylases with inactive Sepharose-bound rabbit skeletal muscle subunits containing pyridoxal 5'-phosphate monomethylester and soluble activatable frog muscle and rabbit liver phosphorylase monomers. The inactive Sepharose-bound subunit induced in each case activity in the soluble subunit. But whereas the inactive rabbit muscle phosphorylase subunit even transmitted its characteristic temperature dependence of the rate of the reaction to the frog muscle subunit, it could not propagate its control properties to the liver enzyme. Differences of hybrid phosphorylases are related to immunological and amino acid divergencies among the component enzymes. 相似文献

The action of phosphorylase b from rabbit muscle and potato phosphorylase was inhibited to various extents by several glucose analogs. Like glucose itself, all of the glucosidic oxygen-substituted analogs tested in kinetic experiments showed a nonlinear competitive inhibition for muscle phosphorylase b and a linear competitive one for potato phosphorylase. 5-Thio-D-glucose, one of the ring oxygen-substituted analogs, also inhibited the action of muscle phosphorylase b in the same manner, while the inhibition pattern of 5-amino-D-glucose (nojirimycin) was of a linear noncompetitive type. Since the conformation of 5-amino-D-glucose in aqueous solution is half-chair (Reese et al. (1971) Carbohyd. Res. 18, 381-388), the unusual kinetic behavior of the compound toward muscle phosphorylase b was supposed to be due to its half-chair conformation. In the glucosidic oxygen-substituted analogs, the affinity for both muscle phosphorylase b and potato phosphorylase decreased with decreasing order of magnitude of electronegativity of the glucosidic atom. The strong positive correlation between the affinity and the electronegativity suggests that D-glucose-1-P, the substrate, may bind to phosphorylase with the formation of a hydrogen bond between its glucosidic oxygen and a hydrogen donor of the enzyme. 相似文献

The rapid actions of mammalian muscle phosphorylases on glycogen and amylopectin may not result from their high affinity for the polysaccharide unit chains but from the high concentration of chain ends at the polysaccharide surface. When set free by the debranching action of pullulanase the linear unit chains of amylopectin are acted on at a low rate by the mammalian enzymes in contrast to the rapid rate of reaction catalyzed by potato phosphorylase. These findings suggest that the conformation of the active site of the mammalian phosphorylases compensates for the weak binding of individual chain ends by allowing the enzyme to act, without hindrance, on the densely packed polysaccharide chain ends at a near-maximum velocity. 相似文献

Skeletal muscle phosphorylase b has been purified from lamprey, Entosphenus japonicus, to a state of homogeneity as judged by the criterion of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The enzyme was completely dependent on AMP for activity and converted into the a form by rabbit muscle phosphorylase kinase in the presence of ATP and Mg2+. The subunit molecular weight determined by SDS-gel electrophoresis was 94,000 ± 1,600 (SE). The enzyme activity was stimulated by Na2SO4, but was not affected by mercaptoethanol. The Km values of the a form for glucose 1-phosphate and glycogen were 3.5 mm and 0.13%, respectively, and those of the b form for glucose 1-phosphate, glycogen, and AMP were 15 mm, 0.4%, and 0.1 mm, respectively. These values were smaller than those reported with lobster phosphorylase and greater than those reported with mammalian skeletal muscle phosphorylases. Electrophoretic and immunological studies have indicated that lamprey phosphorylase b exists as a single molecular form in skeletal muscle, heart, brain, and kidney. Rabbit antibody against lamprey phosphorylase cross-reacted with phosphorylases from skate and shark livers more intensely than with those from skeletal muscles. 相似文献

Glycogen phosphorylase plays a central role in the mobilization of carbohydrate reserves in a wide variety of organisms and tissues. While rabbit muscle phosphorylase remains the most studied and best characterized of phosphorylases, recombinant DNA techniques have led to the recent appearance of primary sequence data for a wide variety of phosphorylase enzymes. The functional properties of rabbit muscle phosphorylases are reviewed and then compared to properties of phosphorylases from other tissues and organisms. Tissue expression patterns and the chromosomal localization of mammalian phosphorylases are described. Differences in functional properties among phosphorylases are related to new structural information. Evolutionary relationships among phosphorylases as afforded by comparative analysis of proteins and gene sequences are discussed. 相似文献

Rabbit skeletal muscle glycogen phosphorylase b was covalently bound to oyster glycogen by means of cyanogen bromide. Removal of the unbound enzyme was achieved, using DEAE-Sephadex A-50 chromatography. Glycogen-bound phosphorylase b showed a higher affinity toward glucose 1-phosphate but a lower homotropic cooperativity, with respect to AMP activation, than the native enzyme. However, at low AMP concentrations conjugated phosphorylase b was as efficient as the free enzyme. It is of interest that glycogen-bound phosphorylase b exhibited catalytic activity upon its polysaccharide carrier. Kinetics of heat and cold inactivation indicated that the bound enzyme was considerably more resistant toward heat inactivation but less stable upon exposure to cold. It was shown also that both conjugated and native enzymes had identical pH optima, similar activity/temperature dependencies and the same resistance against trypsin inactivation. 相似文献

Peptide patterns and immunological properties of the cytoplasmic and chloroplastic -1,4-glucan phosphorylase (EC 2.4.1.1) from spinach leaves have been studied and were compared with those of phosphorylases from other sources. The two spinach leaf phosphorylases were immunologically different; a limited cross-reactivity was observed only at high antigen or antibody concentrations. Peptide mapping of the two enzymes resulted in complex patterns composed of more than 20 fragments; but no peptide was electrophoretically identical in both proteins. Approximately 13 to 15 of the fragments exhibited antigeneity but no cross-reactivity of any peptide was observed. Therefore, the two compartment-specific phosphorylase forms from spinach leaves represent isoenzymes possessing different primary structures. Peptide patterns of potato tuber and rabbit muscle phosphorylase were different from those of the two spinach leaf enzymes. Although the potato tuber phosphorylase resides in the plastidic compartment and is kinetically closely related to the chloroplastic spinach enzyme, it reacted more strongly with the anti-cytoplasmic-phosphorylase immunoglobulin G. Similar results were obtained with rabbit muscle phosphorylase. These observations support the assumption that the chloroplast-specific phosphorylase isoenzyme has a higher structural diversity than does the cytoplasmic counterpart.Abbreviations EDTA

Antibodies have been raised against an α-l,4-glucan phosphorylase (EC 2. 4. 1. 1) purified from the red alga Gracilaria chilensis. Localization of α-l,4-glucan phosphorylase in thin sections of G. chilensis and G. tenuistipitata was performed using immuno-gold labelling and transmission electron microscopy. The enzyme was localized in the cytosol and around the cytosolic starch granules of the algal cells. The labelling was not associated with the chloroplast or the cell wall. Amino acid composition of the red algal phosphorylase was quite similar to that of potato tuber and rabbit muscle phosphorylases. Partial amino acid sequences showed 48, 54 and 65% homology with the rabbit, potato and Escherichia coli enzymes, respectively. 相似文献

The activities of glycogen phosphorylases a and b from the body wall musculature of the marine worm Arenicola marina (Annelida, Polychaeta) were determined after various periods of anoxia. Already under normoxic conditions one third of the total activity was produced from the a form. During anoxia the ratio of both forms as well as the total activity did not change. The activity of soluble phosphorylase kinase was comparatively low in this tissue 4.3 +/- 1.2 nmol . min-1 . (g wet wt.)-1; the fast twitching tail muscle of shrimps, e.g., had a 10-fold higher phosphorylase kinase activity, whereas phosphorylase activities in both tissues were about the same 2.3 +/- 0.5 mumol . min-1 . (g wet wt.)-1. Glycogen phosphorylase b was purified from the body wall tissue of the marine worm in one step by 5'-AMP-Sepharose resulting in a single protein band in SDS-PAGE. This preparation was accepted as substrate by the phosphorylase kinase from rabbit muscle but a complete phosphorylation could not be achieved. The molecular mass of native phosphorylase was approximately 216 kDa, that of subunits 95 kDa indicating that the enzyme exists as a dimer. There were no isozymes in this preparation, the RF-value (0.17) of the single band in PAGE ranged between those of the isozymes from mice hearts. The activities of phosphorylases b and a were similarly dependent on pH and temperature but differed drastically in the affinities to phosphate and AMP. In presence of 1 mM AMP the app. Km of phosphorylase a for phosphate was 16 mM, that of phosphorylase b above 100 mM.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The amino terminal sequence of the spinach (Spinacia oleracea L. cv Bloomsdale Long Standing) leaf cytoplasmic phosphorylase was determined and shown to have little similarity to the known sequence of the potato tuber phosphorylase. The antigenic reaction of spinach chloroplast phosphorylase and rabbit muscle phosphorylase a to antiserum prepared against spinach leaf cytoplasmic phosphorylase was tested. Neither phosphorylase gave a positive reaction when tested by immunodiffusion or neutralization of enzyme activity. The two spinach phosphorylases were assayed throughout the growth of the plant. Activity of cytoplasmic phosphorylase increased 4- to 8-fold at 30 to 35 days from sowing. Enzyme protein levels, as measured by antibody neutralization, increased by a similar amount. There was no corresponding increase in chloroplast phosphorylase activity. The chloroplast phosphorylase varied in parallel with the chloroplast enzyme ADPglucose pyrophosphorylase. Starch levels were high during the earlier stages of growth and then fell to a constant low level just before the increase in cytoplasmic phosphorylase. The results are discussed with respect to the relationship and functions of the two phosphorylases. 相似文献
