The insulin-sensitive cAMP phosphodiesterase (PDE) in the microsomal fraction (Fraction P-2) from basal (-insulin) rat adipocytes was stimulated upon incubation with 2 mM ATP plus the soluble fraction from insulin-treated adipocytes (Fraction S-2+). Fraction S-2+ was prepared in the presence of p-nitrophenylphosphate, sodium vanadate, and EGTA. The ATP-dependent stimulation of PDE was routinely 60-70%. The unknown factor in Fraction S-2 was water-soluble, heat-labile, excluded by Sephadex G-50, mostly retained by Sephadex G-100, and not inhibited with 1 microgram/ml heparin, 3 mM CaCl2, or 30 mM NaF. The soluble factor may be a mediator of insulin action on PDE, possibly a protein kinase.  相似文献

Soluble phosphodiesterase (EC 3.1.4.1) activity is 3-5-fold lower in superficial colonic epithelial cells compared to that in cells isolated from the lower colonic crypt. Higher phosphodiesterase activity in lower crypt cells is correlated with a 5-fold higher rate of incorporation of [3H]thymidine into DNA in these cells. DEAE-cellulose chromatography of the soluble fraction of superficial and proliferative colonic epithelial cells resulted in separation of three enzyme forms: (1) fraction I, an enzyme which hydrolyzes both cAMP and cGMP with high affinity (apparent Km cAMP = 5 +/- 1 microM, Km cGMP = 2.5 +/- 0.5 microM) and is stimulated 3-6-fold by Ca2+ plus calmodulin; (2) fraction II, a form which hydrolyzes both cAMP and cGMP with low affinity (S0.5 cAMP = 52 +/- 7 microM, S0.5 cGMP = 17 +/- 4 microM), exhibits positive copperativity with respect to substrate and shows cGMP stimulation of cAMP hydrolysis and (3) fraction III, a cAMP-specific form which exhibits biphasic kinetics, a low Km for cAMP (Km cAMP = 5 +/- 1 microM) and does not hydrolyze cGMP. The pattern of distribution of phosphodiesterase activities on DEAE-cellulose was similar in superficial and proliferative colonic epithelial cells. The higher specific activity in proliferative cells was reflected in higher activities of each of the three chromatographically distinct forms of the enzyme. In contrast to epithelial cells, the soluble fraction of homogenates of the submucosa and supporting cells exhibited phosphodiesterase forms I and II and was lacking in the form corresponding to fraction III of epithelial cells.  相似文献

Two soluble cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase activities, designated Peak I (Mr = 216,000) and Peak II (Mr = 230,000), have been isolated from bovine adrenal medulla by DEAE-cellulose chromatography. Peak I has Ca2+-independent, cGMP-specific phosphodiesterase activity and Peak II has cGMP-stimulated cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase activity. Peak I hydrolyzes cGMP with hyperbolic kinetics and demonstrates a Km of 23 microM. Peak II hydrolyzes cGMP with hyperbolic kinetics but hydrolyzes cAMP with slightly sigmoidal kinetics and demonstrates Km values of 54 +/- 0.7 microM cGMP and 38 +/- 6 microM cAMP. Cyclic AMP and cGMP are competitive inhibitors of each other's hydrolysis, suggesting that these nucleotides may be hydrolyzed at the same catalytic site. Micromolar concentrations of cGMP cause a 5-fold stimulation of the hydrolysis of subsaturating concentrations of cAMP by the Peak II phosphodiesterase. Half-maximal activation occurs at 0.5 microM cGMP and the result of activation is a decrease in the apparent Km for cAMP. Stimulation of the hydrolysis of subsaturating concentrations of cGMP by cAMP was also detected; however, cAMP is a less potent activator of the enzyme than cGMP. Cyclic AMP causes a 1.5-fold stimulation of cGMP hydrolysis and half-maximal activation occurs at 2.5 microM cAMP.  相似文献

A "low Km" cAMP phosphodiesterase with properties of a peripheral membrane protein accounts for approximately 90% of total cAMP phosphodiesterase activity in particulate (100,000 X g) fractions from rat fat cells. Incubation of fat cells with insulin for 10 min increased particulate (but not soluble) cAMP phosphodiesterase activity, with a maximum increase (approximately 100%) at 1 nM insulin. Most of the increase in activity was retained after solubilization (with non-ionic detergent and NaBr) and partial purification (approximately 20-fold) on DEAE-Sephacel. The solubilized enzyme from adipose tissue was purified approximately 65,000-fold to apparent homogeneity (yield approximately 20%) by chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel and Sephadex G-200 and affinity chromatography on aminoethyl agarose conjugated with the N-(2-isothiocyanato)ethyl derivative of the phosphodiesterase inhibitor cilostamide (OPC 3689). A 63,800 +/- 200-Da polypeptide (accounting for greater than 90% of the protein eluted from the affinity column) was identified by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate (with or without reduction). Enzyme activity was associated with the single protein band after electrophoresis under nondenaturing conditions. On gel permeation, Mr(app) was 100,000-110,000, suggesting that the holoenzyme is a dimer. A pI of 4.9-5.0 was estimated by isoelectric focusing. At 30 degrees C, the purified enzyme hydrolyzed both cAMP and cGMP with normal Michaelis-Menten kinetics; the pH optimum was 7.5. The Km(app) for cAMP was 0.38 microM and Vmax, 8.5 mumol/min/mg; for cGMP, Km(app) was 0.28 microM and Vmax, 2.0 mumol/min/mg. cGMP competitively inhibited cAMP hydrolysis with a Ki of approximately 0.15 microM. The enzyme was also inhibited by several OPC derivatives and "cardiotonic" drugs, but not by RO 20-1724. It was very sensitive to inhibition by agents which covalently modify protein sulfhydryls, but not by diisopropyl fluorophosphate. The activation by insulin and other findings indicate that the purified enzyme, which seems to belong to a subtype of low Km cAMP phosphodiesterases that is specifically and potently inhibited by cGMP, cilostamide, other OPC derivatives, and certain cardiotonic drugs, is likely to account for the hormone-sensitive particulate low Km cAMP phosphodiesterase activity of rat adipocytes.  相似文献

Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase activity of several tissues of rat is inhibited by an endogenous factor isolated from rat adipocytes following exposure of these cells to agents that raise intracellular cyclic AMP levels. The inhibitory action was demonstrated with varying cAMP concentrations from 0.1-400 muM. Enzyme from 10,000 X g supernatant of epididymal adipose tissue was inhibited approximately 2-3 fold more than the plasma membrane of adipocytes by a given concentration of the feedback regulator. Kinetic analysis of cAMP phosphodiesterase of plasma membrane showed that feedback regulator (8.8 U/ml) inhibited the Vmax 48%. The maximum inhibition of phosphodiesterase by feedback regulator (20 U/ml) was about 80%. The apparent Km for cAMP was increased. The ability of phosphodiesterase from several tissues of rat (10,000 X g supernatant) to hydrolyze cAMP and cGMP was tested. Feedback regulator inhibited cGMP hydrolysis in cardiac muscle and 5 other tissues 23-92% more than it inhibited the hydrolysis of cAMP. The physiological significance of this inhibitory effect can begin to be clarified when the feedback regulator is purified to homogeneity and characterized.  相似文献

Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase in the plasma membranes of bovine epididymal spermatozoa was stimulated by added Ca2+ and calmodulin. The rate of hydrolysis and responsiveness toward calmodulin was greater for cAMP than for cGMP. The kinetic analysis of the activity revealed two forms of phosphodiesterase with apparent Km values of 7.5 and 95 microM for cAMP. Calmodulin stimulated both of the activities by increasing the Vmax without affecting the Km's. The activity response with respect to Ca2+ concentration appears to be biphasic in both the absence and presence of added calmodulin. Trifluoperazine inhibited the Ca2+- and calmodulin-sensitive enzyme activity in a dose-dependent manner. The calmodulin-stimulated phosphodiesterase activity in the sperm plasma membranes can be solubilized and absorbed to a Calmodulin-Sepharose affinity column in the presence of Ca2+.  相似文献

A cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase was extensively purified from the 100000g supernatant fraction of human platelets. The purification was 2500-3000-fold with 30% recovery of activity. The enzyme was isolated by DEAE-cellulose chromatography followed by adsorption to blue dextran-Sepharose and elution with cAMP. The protein has a molecular weight of 140 000 as determined by gel filtration. On NaDodSO4-containing polyacrylamide gels the major band is at 61 000 daltons, suggesting that the enzyme may exist as a dimer in solution under nondenaturing conditions. The enzyme requires Mg2+ or Mn2+ for activity. The calcium binding protein calmodulin does not stimulate hydrolysis of cAMP by this enzyme. The purified enzyme hydrolyzes both cAMP and cGMP with normal Michaelis-Menten kinetics with Km values of 0.18 microM and 0.02 microM, respectively. The hydrolysis of cGMP, however, is only one-tenth as rapid as the hydrolysis of cAMP. Cyclic GMP does not stimulate cAMP hydrolysis but instead is a potent competitive inhibitor of cAMP hydrolysis. The enzyme is also competitively inhibited by the phosphodiesterase inhibitors papaverine, 3-isobutyl-l-methylxanthine, and dipyridamole. The enzyme did not cross-react with an antibody raised to a cAMP phosphodiesterase isolated from dog kidney, indicating that the enzymes are not immunologically related. The inhibition of cAMP hydrolysis by cGMP suggests a possible regulatory link between these two cyclic nucleotides. One of the roles of cGMP in platelets may be to potentiate increases in intracellular cAMP by inhibiting the hydrolysis of cAMP by this enzyme.  相似文献

The insulin-sensitive cAMP phosphodiesterase (PDE) from rat adipocytes was stimulated 60-70% upon incubation with 2 mM ATP and the soluble fraction (Fraction S-1) from insulin-treated rat liver. The effect of ATP was partially mimicked by ATP-gamma-S or GTP, but not by AMP-PNP. The PDE-stimulating activity in Fraction S-1 was preserved in the presence of 50 mM sodium phenyl phosphate, 50 mM sodium fluoride, and 0.1 mM sodium vanadate. The PDE-stimulating activity was not inhibited with either 0.5 mM H-7 or 5 microM PKI-(5-24)-peptide, but was blocked with 1 mM Kemptide. The active component in Fraction S-1 may be a phosphorylated compound, which, in the presence of ATP, may mediate the hormonal action on PDE.  相似文献

A low-Km cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase solubilised from rat liver membranes by mild proteolysis with chymotrypsin has been purified to apparent homogeneity. The purification included chromatography on cellulose phosphate, Ecteola-cellulose, hydroxyapatite, a theophylline affinity matrix and HPLC on a DEAE-substituted column. The purified enzyme has linear kinetic plots with a Km of 0.24 microM and a Vmax of 6.2 mumol mg-1 min-1 with cyclic AMP as a substrate. It also hydrolyses cyclic GMP with a Km of 0.17 microM and a Vmax which is about a third of that with cyclic AMP. Cyclic GMP is also a competitive inhibitor of cyclic AMP hydrolysis with a Ki of 0.18 microM. The proteolytically solubilised enzyme has a subunit molecular mass of 73 kDa by SDS gel electrophoresis and of 130 kDa by HPLC size-exclusion chromatography, suggesting that it exists as a dimer. A partially purified preparation of this enzyme was used to raise antiserum in a sheep. The antiserum immunoprecipitated activity from liver and adipose tissue of rat and mouse. It had little activity against phosphodiesterase from other rat tissues or other species. Insulin-activated phosphodiesterase from both adipocytes and hepatocytes was immunoprecipitated by the antiserum suggesting that the purified enzyme was an insulin-sensitive phosphodiesterase.  相似文献

Homogenates of rat neostriatum hydrolysed cGMP faster than cAMP at both high (100 microM) and low (1 microM) substrate concentrations, although the hydrolysis of both nucleotides exhibited similar kinetic properties. Kinetic analysis of the effect of substrate concentration on the rate of cAMP and cGMP hydrolysis gave results characteristic of a negatively cooperative enzyme species, with two apparent Km's for each nucleotide. The ratio between the Vmax of the high Km form and the Vmax of the low Km form was similar in various subcellular fractions of neostriatal tissue, in a preparation of synaptic membranes from whole brain, and in homogenates of other brain regions, including both neural-rich and glial-rich tissues. In homogenates of neostriatum cAMP could almost completely block cGMP hydrolysis and vice versa. The kinetics of this inhibition were competitive at low (1 microM) substrate concentrations, and non-competitive at high (100 microM) substrate concentrations. Various phosphodiesterase inhibitors failed to preferentially inhibit the hydrolysis of either nucleotide at high or low nucleotide concentrations. Preliminary studies of the effect of a Ca(2+)-dependent endogenous activator preparation on the hydrolysis of cyclic nucleotides in homogenates of rat neostriatum showed a specific activation of cGMP hydrolysis at low nucleotide concentrations. The rate of cGMP hydrolysis at 1 microM substrate concentration was doubled in the presence of the activator preparation and 100 microM-CaCl2, while cGMP hydrolysis at 100 microM or cAMP hydrolysis at both 1 microM and 100 microM remained unaffected. These observations raise the possibility that cAMP and cGMP may be hydrolysed by the same enzyme in rat neostriatum, and that an endogenous activating factor may determine the relative affinities of the enzyme for the two nucleotides.  相似文献

Adipocyte membranes from hypothyroid rats showed increased low Km cAMP phosphodiesterase activity compared to normals, provided that the subcellular fractionations were done in isotonic, as opposed to hypotonic, buffers. The enhanced cAMP phosphodiesterase activity in hypothyroid membranes was nearly normalized by incubation with a 10-fold excess of cGMP. Preincubation of hypothyroid adipocytes with cGMP also restored to normal the blunted lipolytic response to micromolar concentrations of epinephrine. DEAE-Sephacel chromatography of detergent-solubilized membrane-bound cAMP phosphodiesterase showed a 2.5-fold enhancement in hypothyroid membranes of a form of the enzyme that was completely inhibited by cGMP; the enzymatic elution profiles of the soluble fractions showed no difference between normal and hypothyroid fat pads. The results suggest a possible regulatory role of cGMP in adipocytes in the hypothyroid state.  相似文献

A calmodulin-stimulated form of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase from bovine brain has been extensively purified (1000-fold). Its specific activity is approximately 4 mumol min-1 (mg of protein)-1 when 1 microM cGMP is used as the substrate. This form of calmodulin-sensitive phosphodiesterase activity differs from those purified previously by showing a very low maximum hydrolytic rate for cAMP vs. cGMP. The purification procedure utilizing ammonium sulfate precipitation, ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, gel filtration on Sephacryl S-300, isoelectric focusing, and affinity chromatography on calmodulin-Sepharose and Cibacron blue-agarose results in a protein with greater than 80% purity with 1% yield. Kinetics of cGMP and cAMP hydrolysis are linear with Km values of 5 and 15 microM, respectively. Addition of calcium and calmodulin reduces the apparent Km for cGMP to 2-3 microM and increases the Vmax by 10-fold. cAMP hydrolysis shows a similar increase in Vmax with an apparent doubling of Km. Both substrates show competitive inhibition with Ki's close to their relative Km values. Highly purified preparations of the enzyme contain a major protein band of Mr 74 000 that best correlates with enzyme activity. Proteins of Mr 59 000 and Mr 46 000 contaminate some preparations to varying degrees. An apparent molecular weight of 150 000 by gel filtration suggests that the enzyme exists as a dimer of Mr 74 000 subunits. Phosphorylation of the enzyme preparation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase did not alter the kinetic or calmodulin binding properties of the enzyme. Western immunoblot analysis indicated no cross-reactivity between the bovine brain calmodulin-stimulated gGMP phosphodiesterase and the Mr 60 000 high-affinity cAMP phosphodiesterase present in most mammalian tissues.  相似文献

The kinetic and regulatory properties of cGMP-activated phosphodiesterase (PDE) from human brain were studied. In double reciprocal plots the enzyme activity is characterized by a linear dependence of cAMP and a nonlinear one for cGMP. Micromolar concentrations of cGMP accelerate cAMP hydrolysis (7-14-fold) with Ka for cGMP of 0.36 microM. Stimulation of cAMP hydrolysis is accompanied by a decrease of Km with no changes in Vmax. With a rise in the cGMP concentration above 5 microM PDE activation is changed by its inhibition. Both substrates act as competitive inhibitors towards each other. The Ki value for both cGMP and cAMP is 30 microM. After the increase in the cAMP (Bt)2 concentration the activation of 5 microM cAMP hydrolysis is accompanied by the enzyme inhibition. Both analogs competitively inhibit cGMP hydrolysis with Ki of 10 and 1500 microM for cGMP(Bt)2 and cAMP(Bt)2, respectively. The data obtained point to the existence of two binding sites for cyclic nucleotides, namely, a regulatory site which is highly specific for cGMP and a catalytic site responsible for the hydrolysis of the both substrates which displays no apparent specificity either for cAMP or for cGMP. The different affinity of natural and synthetic cyclic nucleotides for these sites is determined, to a large extent, by the amino groups in the 2nd and 6th positions of the purine ring.  相似文献

There are phosphodiesterase activities in both particulate and supernatant fractions which hydrolyze guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP) and adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) with an apparent Km of 2-8 muM and with an apparent Km of 44-222 muM. 4-(3-Butoxy-4-methoxybenzyl-2-imidazolidinone (RO20-1724) did not inhibit cGMP phosphodiesterase activity in homogenates of mouse neuroblastoma cells, but markedly inhibited cAMP phosphodiesterase activity. Papaverine and theophylline inhibited both cGMP and cAMP phosphodiesterase activities to about the same extent. The former was more potent than the latter. The specific activity of cGMP phosphodiesterase as a function of protein concentrations first increased and then decreased. The specific activity of cAMP phosphodiesterase decreased under a similar experimental condition.  相似文献

The effect of insulin on cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (PDE) in rat luteal cells was studied. Cells were obtained from PMSG/hCG primed rats and further incubated or not with insulin. The hormone produced an increase of enzyme activity after a 10 min incubation of intact cells. Maximal stimulation was achieved at 0.2 nM of insulin. Two peaks of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase activity were resolved after chromatography of cell cytosolic extracts on DEAE-cellulose. These peaks (I and II) were active with cAMP as substrate but only peak I was active with cGMP. The enzyme activity of both peaks was increased in cells treated with insulin. Phosphodiesterase activity in the two peaks show two kinetic components for cAMP hydrolysis, one of high affinity (Km 2-4 microM) and the other of low affinity (47-56 microM). Treatment of the cells with insulin produced a 2 to 8 fold increase of the Vmax of these peaks. In addition after stimulation with insulin, the activation of peak I phosphodiesterase by calmodulin was less effective.  相似文献

Recently, we recognized two genes, gbpA and gbpB, encoding putative cGMP-binding proteins with a Zn(2+)-hydrolase domain and two cyclic nucleotide binding domains. The Zn(2+)-hydrolase domains belong to the superfamily of beta-lactamases, also harboring a small family of class II phosphodiesterases from bacteria and lower eukaryotes. Gene inactivation and overexpression studies demonstrate that gbpA encodes the cGMP-stimulated cGMP-phosphodiesterase that was characterized biochemically previously and was shown to be involved in chemotaxis. cAMP neither activates nor is a substrate of GbpA. The gbpB gene is expressed mainly in the multicellular stage and seems to encode a dual specificity phosphodiesterase with preference for cAMP. The enzyme hydrolyses cAMP approximately 9-fold faster than cGMP and is activated by cAMP and cGMP with a K(A) value of approximately 0.7 and 2.3 microM, respectively. Cells with a deletion of the gbpB gene have increased basal and receptor stimulated cAMP levels and are sporogeneous. We propose that GbpA and GbpB hydrolyze the substrate in the Zn(2+)-hydrolase domain, whereas the cyclic nucleotide binding domains mediate activation. The human cGMP-stimulated cAMP/cGMP phosphodiesterase has similar biochemical properties, but a completely different topology: hydrolysis takes place by a class I catalytic domain and GAF domains mediate cGMP activation.  相似文献

Cyclic GMP-stimulated cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase purified greater than 13,000-fold to apparent homogeneity from calf liver exhibited a single protein band (Mr approximately 102,000) on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis under denaturing conditions. Enzyme activity comigrated with the single protein peak on analytical polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, sucrose density gradient centrifugation, and gel filtration. From the sedimentation coefficient of 6.9 S and Stokes radius of 67 A, an Mr of 201,000 and frictional ratio (f/fo) of 1.7 were calculated, suggesting that the native enzyme is a nonspherical dimer of similar, if not identical, peptides. The effectiveness of Mg2+, Mn2+, and Co2+ in supporting catalytic activity depended on the concentration of cGMP and cAMP present as substrate or effector. Over a wide range of substrate concentrations, optimal concentrations for Mg2+, Mn2+, and Co2+ were about 10, 1, and 0.2 mM, respectively. At concentrations higher than optimal, Mg2+ inhibited activity somewhat; inhibition by Co2+ (and in some instances by Mn2+) was virtually complete. At low substrate concentrations, activity with optimal Mn2+ was equal to or greater than that with Co2+ and always greater than that with Mg2+. With greater than or equal to 0.5 microM cGMP or 20 to 300 microM cAMP and for cAMP-stimulated cGMP or cGMP-stimulated cAMP hydrolysis, activity with Mg2+ greater than Mn2+ greater than Co2+. In the presence of Mg2+, the purified enzyme hydrolyzed cGMP and cAMP with kinetics suggestive of positive cooperativity. Apparent Km values were 15 and 33 microM, and maximal velocities were 200 and 170 mumol/min/mg of protein, respectively. Substitution of Mn2+ for Mg2+ increased apparent Km and reduced Vmax for cGMP with little effect on Km or Vmax for cAMP. Co2+ increased Km and reduced Vmax for both. cGMP stimulated cAMP hydrolysis approximately 32-fold in the presence of Mg2+, much less with Mn2+ or Co2+. In the presence of Mg2+, Mn2+ and Co2+ at concentrations that increased activity when present singly inhibited cGMP-stimulated cAMP hydrolysis. It appears that divalent cations as well as cyclic nucleotides affect cooperative interactions of this enzyme. Whereas Co2+ effects were observed in the presence of either cyclic nucleotide, Mn2+ effects were especially prominent when cGMP was present (either as substrate or effector).  相似文献

The purified catalytic subunit (C) of cAMP-dependent protein kinase produced a 2-fold activation of the low Km phosphodiesterase in crude microsomes (P-2 pellet) of rat adipocytes. This activation was C subunit concentration-dependent, ATP-dependent, blocked by a specific peptide inhibitor, and lost if the C subunit was first heat denatured. The concentration of ATP necessary for half-maximal activation of the low Km phosphodiesterase was 4.50 +/- 1.1 microM, which was nearly the same as the known Km of C subunit for ATP (3.1 microM) using other substrates. The concentration of C subunit producing half-maximal activation of phosphodiesterase was 0.22 +/- 0.04 microM, slightly less than the measured concentration of total C subunit in adipocytes (0.45 microM). The activation of the low Km phosphodiesterase by C subunit was specific, since on an equimolar basis, myosin light chain kinase, cGMP-dependent protein kinase, or Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II did not activate the enzyme. The percent stimulation of phosphodiesterase by C subunit was about the same as that produced by incubation of adipocytes with a cAMP analog, and the enzyme first activated in vivo with the analog was not activated to the same extent (on a percentage basis) by in vitro treatment with C subunit. Treatment of the crude microsomes with trypsin resulted in transfer of phosphodiesterase catalytic activity from the particulate to the supernatant fraction, but the enzyme in the supernatant was minimally activated by C subunit, suggesting either loss or dislocation of the regulatory component. The C subunit-mediated activation of phosphodiesterase was preserved after either transfer of phosphodiesterase activity to the supernatant fraction by nonionic detergents or partial purification of the transferred enzyme. The present findings are consistent with the suggestion that protein kinase regulates the concentration of cAMP through phosphodiesterase activation and provide direct evidence that the mechanism of activation involves phosphorylation.  相似文献

We have investigated the effects of several phosphodiesterase inhibitors on the activity of a cGMP-stimulated cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase purified from calf liver supernatant. Theophylline, RO 20-1724, and MY 5445 were not effective inhibitors. With 0.5 microM [3H]cGMP as substrate or with 0.5 microM [3H]cAMP in the presence of 1 microM cGMP, activity was inhibited by papaverine, dipyridamole, isobutylmethylxanthine (IBMX), and cilostamide. With 0.5 microM [3H]cAMP as substrate, however, only cilostamide was inhibitory; papaverine, dipyridamole, and IBMX increased activity. The increase was dependent on both drug and substrate concentration with maximal stimulation (150-180%) at concentrations of cAMP between 0.5 and 2.5 microM. At higher cAMP concentrations, the three drugs were inhibitory; inhibition was maximal at approximately 40 microM and decreased at higher cAMP concentrations. Inhibition of cGMP hydrolysis was maximal at approximately 3 microM and decreased at higher concentrations. Papaverine, IBMX, dipyridamole, and cilostamide inhibited [3H] cGMP hydrolysis competitively with Ki values of 3, 6.5, 7, and 11.5 microM, respectively. Papaverine, IBMX, or dipyridamole reduced the Hill coefficient for cAMP hydrolysis from 1.8 to 1.1-1.2, and Lineweaver-Burk plots were linear or nearly linear. With cilostamide, however, Lineweaver-Burk plots remained curvilinear. Thus, three competitive inhibitors, papaverine, dipyridamole, and IBMX, can mimic substrate and effect allosteric transitions that increase catalytic activity, whereas another, cilostamide, apparently cannot. Differences in the actions of these inhibitors presumably reflect differences in the molecular requirements for effective interaction at catalytic and allosteric sites on phosphodiesterase, i.e. differences in the structure of these sites.  相似文献

Guanosine 3':5'-monophosphate phosphodiesterases, which appear to be under allosteric control, have been partially purified from rat liver supernatant and particulate fractions. The preferred substrate for both phosphodiesterases was cGMP (Km values: cGMP less than cIMP less than cAMP). At subsaturating concentrations of substrate, the phosphodiesterases were stimulated by purine cyclic nucleotides. The order of effectiveness for activation of cyclic nucleotide hydrolysis was cGMP greater than cIMP greater than cAMP greater than cXMP. Using cAMP derivatives as activators of cIMP hydrolysis, modifications in the ribose, cyclic phosphate, and purine moieties were shown to alter the ability of the cyclic nucleotide to activate the supernatant enzyme. cGMP, at concentrations that stimulated cyclic nucleotide hydrolysis, enhanced chymotryptic inactivation of the supernatant phosphodiesterase. At similar concentrations, cAMP was not effective. It appears that on interaction with appropriate cyclic nucleotides, this phosphodiesterase undergoes conformational changes that are associated with increased catalytic activity and enhanced susceptibility to proteolytic attack. Divalent cation may not be required for the nucleotide-phosphodiesterase interaction and resultant change in conformation.  相似文献
