In extracts from the adductor muscle of the shell-fish, Pecten maximus, glycogen synthetase (EC.2.4.1.11) was found. The enzyme occurs predominantly as D form (glucose-6-P dependent for activity). An I form (G-6-P independent) was also present. Kinetics of glycogen synthetase showed that the Ka for G-6-P in the D form was 10 fold higher than in the I form. Both forms of glycogen synthetase were interconverted through reactions catalyzed by phosphatase and kinase enzymes respectively. Glucose-6-P and Mg+2 must be present to stabilize glycogen synthetase and to activate the synthetase D phosphatase, found in the 90,000 X g protein-glycogen complex. The conversion of synthetase D to I was inhibited by F-, glycogen, ATP and UTP. When F- was present the effect of G-6-P on synthetase and phosphatase suggested that conversion involved the existence of more than a single glycogen synthetase phosphatase enzyme. ATP and Mg+2 were necessary for the conversion of synthetase I to D, and the conversion was stimulated by cAMP. 相似文献

The phosphorylated form of liver glycogen phosphorylase (alpha-1,4-glucan : orthophosphate alpha-glucosyl-transferase, EC 2.4.1.1) (phosphorylase a) is active and easily measured while the dephosphorylated form (phosphorylase b), in contrast to the muscle enzyme, has been reported to be essentially inactive even in the presence of AMP. We have purified both forms of phosphorylase from rat liver and studied the characteristics of each. Phosphorylase b activity can be measured with our assay conditions. The phosphorylase b we obtained was stimulated by high concentrations of sulfate, and was a substrate for muscle phosphorylase kinase whereas phosphorylase a was inhibited by sulfate, and was a substrate for liver phosphorylase phosphatase. Substrate binding to phosphorylase b was poor (KM glycogen = 2.5 mM, glucose-1-P = 250 mM) compared to phosphorylase a (KM glycogen = 1.8 mM, KM glucose-1-P = 0.7 mM). Liver phosphorylase b was active in the absence of AMP. However, AMP lowered the KM for glucose-1-P to 80 mM for purified phosphorylase b and to 60 mM for the enzyme in crude extract (Ka = 0.5 mM). Using appropriate substrate, buffer and AMP concentrations, assay conditions have been developed which allow determination of phosphorylase a and 90% of the phosphorylase b activity in liver extracts. Interconversion of the two forms can be demonstrated in vivo (under acute stimulation) and in vitro with little change in total activity. A decrease in total phosphorylase activity has been observed after prolonged starvation and in diabetes. 相似文献

The synthesis of mannose 1-phosphate in brain 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The interconversion of mannose-6-P and mannose-1-P in brain has been shown to be catalyzed by a distinct enzyme. The enzyme has been separated from most of the phosphoglucomutase activity of the brain. The residual phosphoglucomutase activity (less than 1%) may be associated with phosphomannomutase itself. Mannose-1,6-P2 or glucose-1,6-P2 is required for the reaction as well as a divalent cation (Mg2+ greater than Co2+ greater than Ni2+ greater than Mn2+). Glucose-1-P, glucose-6-P, and 2-deoxyglucose-6-P are also substrates or inhibitors. Other phosphorylated sugars tested, glucosamine-6-P, N-acetylglucosamine-6-P, galactose-6-P, fructose-6-P, ribose-5-P, and arabinose-5-P, do not affect the rate of the reaction when assayed in the presence of mannose-6-32P. 相似文献

Glycogen synthase in the glucose-6-phosphate (glucose-6-P)-dependent form was purified over 10,000-fold from an extract of term human placenta. The purified enzyme shows a single protein band on polyacry1amide-gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. The enzyme activity in the presence of glucose-6-P is increased by the single addition of Mg2+, Ca2+, or Mn2+ and is reduced by the addition of either sulfate or phosphate. Addition of either Mg2+, Ca2+, or Mn2+ relieves the inhibition by sulfate or phosphate. The enzyme activity in the absence of glucose 6-P is greatly increased by the addition of MnSO4, CoSO4, and NiSO4 and is increased to a lesser extent by MgSO4, CaSO4, and FeSO4. The activation of the glucose-6-P-dependent form of the enzyme by these metal sulfates in the absence of glucose-6-P has never been reported. MnSO4, which shows homotropic cooperativity, is the best activator among the various metal sulfates tested. The human placental glucose-6-P-dependent form of glycogen synthase (D form) can be converted to the glucose-6-P-independent form (I form) of the enzyme by incubating the partially purified glycogen synthase, which is copurified with synthase phosphatase, with Mn2+. This conversion can be reversed by the addition of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. The synthase D to synthase I converting system from human placenta is unique in its stringent requirement for Mn2+. 相似文献

Purified rabbit skeletal muscle glycogen synthetase, in both the glucose-6-phosphate (P)-dependent (phosphorylated) and the glucose-6-P-independent (dephosphorylated) forms, was subjected to limited proteolysis by trypsin. Both forms could be degraded from their original subunit molecular weight of 85,000 to 76,000 and subsequently to 68,000, as determined with acrylamide-gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. Degradation of the glucose-6-P-dependent form of the enzyme resulted in essentially no change in the activity when measured either in the presence or in the absence of glucose-6-P. Degradation of the glucose-6-P-independent form was associated with a progressive increase in glucose-6-P dependency. Phosphorylation of the glucose-6-P-independent form with the adenosine 3′,5′-monophosphate-dependent protein kinase and subsequent digestion of the 32P-labeled enzyme showed that the phosphate group was retained on these subunits. The protein kinase phosphorylated both the original subunit with molecular weight 85,000 and the partially digested subunit with molecular weight 76,000. Upon further digestion of the enzyme into a form having a subunit molecular weight of 68,000, the enzyme was unable to accept a phosphate group from ATP. By contrast with the phosphorylation reaction, the dephosphorylation reaction catalyzed by partially purified glycogen synthetase phosphatase is not stringent in terms of structural integrity of the synthetase. The phosphatase dephosphorylated the glucose-6-P-dependent form of glycogen synthetase equally well at various degrees of degradation. 相似文献

The effects of E. coli endotoxin administration on hepatic glycogen content and glycogen synthase activities in dogs were studied. Liver glycogen content was decreased by 80% 2 hr after endotoxin injection. When enzyme preparations were preincubated at 25 degrees C for 3 hr prior to their assays, 75% of total glycogen synthase was in I form in control dogs. Under such conditions, endotoxin administration decreased the percentage I activity from 75 to 37%; decreased the Vmax and Km for UDP-glucose for total glycogen synthase by 62.2 and 35.3%, respectively; decreased the Vmax and Km for UDP-glucose for glycogen synthase I by 75.6 and 15.6%, respectively; increased the A0.5 for glucose-6-P for the activation of glycogen synthase D by 126% at high (10 mM) and by 18-fold at low (1 mM) UDP-glucose concentration; increased the percentage D activity from 24 to 72%; decreased the I50 for ATP for the inhibition of total glycogen synthase by 49.7%; decreased the I50 for ATP for the inhibition of glycogen synthase I by 26.4%; and decreased the percentage I activity from 78 to 33% at ATP concentrations below 6 mM. When enzyme preparations were not preincubated prior to their assays, 90% of total glycogen synthase was in D form in control dogs. Under such conditions, endotoxin administration decreased the Vmax and Km for UDP-glucose for total glycogen synthase by 47.1 and 33.3%, respectively, and increased the A0.5 for glucose-6-P for the activation of glycogen synthase D by 24.2% at high (10 mM) and by 106% at low (1 mM) UDP-glucose concentration. From these results, it is clear that endotoxin administration greatly impaired hepatic glycogenesis by decreasing the activity of glycogen synthase; this impairment is at least in part responsible for the depletion of liver glycogen content in endotoxin shock. Kinetic analyses revealed that the decrease in the activity of glycogen synthase in endotoxic shock is a result of a decrease in the interconversion of this enzyme from inactive to active form and an increase in the interconversion from active to inactive form. 相似文献

The human placental glucose-6-P-dependent form of glycogen synthase, in the absence of glucose-6-P, can be activated by MnSO4. Separately, Mn2+ and SO4(2-) have no significant effect. In the presence of glucose-6-P, Mn2+ activates the enzyme, but SO4(2-) inhibits; MnSO4 synergetically increases the enzyme activity. Mn2+ reduces the Ka for glucose-6-P to one-tenth of the control value; SO4(2-) increases the Ka 5-fold; however, MnSO4 has no effect on Ka. MnSO4, like glucose-6-P, increases the Vmax of the enzyme in the presence of its substrate, UDP-glucose; it slightly increases the Km for UDP-glucose. In the presence of glucose-6-P, Mn2+ increases and SO4(2-) decreases the Vmax of the enzyme, but neither has an effect on the Km for UDP-glucose. At physiological concentrations of UDP-glucose and glucose-6-P, either Mn2+ or MnSO4 at concentrations less than 1 mM increases the enzyme activity as much as 8 mM glucose-6-P does. At physiological concentrations of UDP-glucose and glucose-6-P, Mn2+ or MnSO4 reverses the inhibition of the enzyme by ATP. 相似文献

Complete conversion of skeletal muscle glycogen synthetase from the I form to the D form requires incorporation of 2 mol of phosphate per enzyme subunit (90,000 g). Incubation of sythetase I with low concentrations of adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate(cAMP)-dependent protein kinase (10 units/ml) and ATP (0.1 to 0.3 mM) plus magnesium acetate (10 mM) results in incorporation within 1/2 hour of 1 mol of phosphate persubunit concomitant with a decrease in the synthetase activity ratio (minus glucose-6-P/plus glucose-6-P) from 0.85 to 0.25. Further incubation for 6 hours does not greatly increase the phosphate content of the synthetase or promote conversion to the D form. This level of phosphorylation is not increased by raising the concentration of protein kinase to 150 units/ml and is not influenced by the presence of glucose-6-P, UDP-glucose, or glycogen. However, at protein kinase concentrations of 10,000 to 30,000 units/ml a second mol of phosphate is incorporated per subunit, and the sythetase activity ratio decreases to 0.05 or less. In addition to the 2 mol of phosphate persubunit which are required for formation of sythetase D, further phosphorylation can be observed which is not associated with changes in synthetase activity. This phosphorylation occurs at a slow rate, is increased by raising the ATP concentration to 2 to 4mM, and is not blocked by the heat-stable protein inhibitor of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. These data indicate that skeletal muscle glycogen synthetase contains multiple phosphorylation sites only two of which are involved in the synthetase I to D conversion. 相似文献

Phosphorylase ab was prepared in vitro by partial phosphorylation of rabbit skeletal muscle phosphorylase b and was isolated by DEAE-Sephacel chromatography. Its phosphorylated and non-phosphorylated subunits could not be distinguished by different affinity to substrates, activators or inhibitors, indicating their coordinated function. In the absence of nucleotide activators, the Km values for Pi and glucose-1-P were 28 mM and 18 mM, respectively. Activity in the presence of 16 mM glucose-1-P was doubled by 10(-4) M AMP or 10(-3) M IMP, mainly by lowering the Km for glucose-1-P. Half-maximum activation was exerted by 2 microM AMP or 0.1 mM IMP. Activation by these nucleotides showed no cooperativity. Glucose exerted competitive inhibition with respect to glucose-1-P, while for the inhibition by glucose-6-P an allosteric mechanism is suggested; the appropriate Ki values were 4.5 mM and 1.5 mM, respectively. The Hill coefficient for glucose-1-P binding was about 1.0, even in the presence of glucose (up to 10 mM), but 10 mM glucose-6-P lowered it to 0.47, indicating a negative heterotropic cooperativity. Effective regulation of the activity of phosphorylase ab by physiological concentrations of Pi, AMP, IMP and glucose-6-P suggests its metabolic control under in vivo condition. 相似文献

The major yeast glycogen synthase, Gsy2p, is inactivated by phosphorylation and activated by the allosteric ligand glucose-6-P. From studies of recombinant proteins, the control can be accommodated by a three-state model, in which unphosphorylated enzyme has intermediate activity (state II). Glucose-6-P increased V(max)/K(m) by about 2-fold (state III), whereas phosphorylation by the cyclin-dependent protein kinase Pcl10p/Pho85p decreased V(max)/K(m) by approximately 30-fold (state I). In the presence of glucose-6-P, state III is achieved regardless of phosphorylation state. The enzyme forms complexes in solution with the yeast glycogenin Glg2p, but this interaction appears not to affect control either by glucose-6-P binding or by phosphorylation. Scanning mutagenesis was applied to identify residues potentially involved in ligand binding. Of 22 mutant enzymes analyzed, seven were essentially inactive. Five mutant proteins were altered in their activation by glucose-6-P, and two were completely unaffected by the hexose phosphate. One of these, R586A/R588A/R591A (all three of the indicated Arg residues mutated to Ala), had wild-type activity and was normally inactivated by phosphorylation. A second mutant, R579A/R580A/R582A, had somewhat reduced V(max), but its activity was not greatly reduced by phosphorylation. The Arg residues in these two mutants are restricted to a highly conserved, 13-residue segment of Gsy2p that we propose to be important for glucose-6-P binding and/or the ability of the enzyme to undergo transitions between activity states. 相似文献

We have tested the hypothesis that interconversion between multiple glucose-6-P-dependent forms of glycogen synthase helps regulate glycogen synthesis in adipose tissue. Our results indicate that interconversion of glycogen synthase in adipose tissue involves primarily dependent forms and that these interconversions were measured better by monitoring the activation constant (A0.5) for glucose-6-P than measuring the -: + glucose-6-P activity ratio. Insulin decreased and epinephrine increased the A0.5 for glucose-6-P without significant change in the activity ratio. Insulin consistently decreased the A0.5 in either the presence or absence of glucose, indicating that the insulin-promoted interconversion did not require increased hexose transport. Isoproterenol increased the A0.5 for glucose-6-P, while methoxamine was without effect, indicating beta receptors mediate adrenergic control of interconversion between glucose-6-P-dependent forms. The changes in the A0.5 produced by incubations with insulin or epinephrine were mutually reversible. We conclude that 1) glycogen synthesis in adipose tissue is catalyzed by multiple glucose-6-P-dependent forms of glycogen synthase, 2) hormones regulate glycogen metabolism by promoting reversible interconversions between these forms, and 3) there is no evidence that a glucose-6-P-independent form of glycogen synthase exists in intact adipose tissue. 相似文献

The effects of ether anaesthesia on metabolites of mouse brain in altered endocrine states has been examined. Alloxan diabetic mice, with elevated levels of blood and brain glucose, exhibited changes in brain metabolites after ether anaesthesia that were comparable to those seen in normal animals. Sympathectomized and/or adrenalectomized mice had decreased levels of brain glucose. The percentage elevation of glucose in the brains of these animals under ether anaesthesia approximated to normal values, although the absolute cerebral levels were lower. Increases in glycogen in the brains of these animals were somewhat diminished. In none of the altered endocrine states were the changes in brain metabolites following ether anaesthesia eliminated. The activity of UDPglucose-glycogen glucosyltransferase (UDPglucose: glycogen α-4-glucosyltransferasee, EC 2.4.1.11) in the mouse brain was measured in the absence and in the presence of glucose-6-P. Neither the total activity nor the percentage of the I form (measured in the absence of glucose-6-P) was altered by anaesthesia or by the endocrine state of the animal. The Michaelis constants with UDPglucose as substrate for the total and I forms were 0·36 mM and 1·0 mM, respectively. Considerable UDPglucose-glycogen glucosyltransferase activity was observed in the absence of added glycogen primer. The observed increase in activity in the presence of added glucose-6-P was greater than would have been anticipated if the hexose phosphate were acting at only one site. 相似文献

Epinephrine regulation of skeletal muscle glycogen metabolism. Studies utilizing the perfused rat hindlimb preparation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
M R Dietz J L Chiasson T R Soderling J H Exton 《The Journal of biological chemistry》1980,255(6):2301-2307
Studies of rat skeletal glycogen metabolism carried out in a perfused hindlimb system indicated that epinephrine activates phosphorylase via the cascade of phosphorylation reactions classically linked to the beta-adrenergic receptor/adenylate cyclase system. The beta blocker propranolol completely blocked the effects of epinephrine on cAMP, cAMP-dependent protein kinase, phosphorylase, and glucose-6-P, whereas the alpha blocker phentolamine was totally ineffective. Omission of glucose from the perfusion medium did not modify the effects of epinephrine. Glycogen synthase activity in control perfused and nonperfused muscle was largely glucose-6-P-dependent (-glucose-6-P/+glucose-6-P activity ratios of 0.1 and 0.2, respectively). Epinephrine perfusion caused a small decrease in the enzyme's activity ratio (0.1 to 0.05) and a large increase in its Ka for glucose-6-P (0.3 to 1.5 mM). This increase in glucose-6-P dependency correlated in time with protein kinase activation and was totally blocked by propranolol and unaffected by phentolamine. Comparison of the kinetics of glycogen synthase in extracts of control and epinephrine-perfused muscle with the kinetics of purified rat skeletal muscle glycogen synthase a phosphorylated to various degrees by cAMP-dependent protein kinase indicated that the enzyme was already substantially phosphorylated in control muscle and that epinephrine treatment caused further phosphorylation of synthase, presumably via cAMP-dependent protein kinase. These data provide a basis for speculation about in vivo regulation of the enzyme. 相似文献

Hexokinase I (ATP:d-hexose 6-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.1), a key regulatory glycolytic enzyme in certain tissues, is known to be markedly inhibited under physiological conditions. The action of the primary inhibitory effector, glucose-6-P, is reversed by inorganic orthophosphate (Pi). A molecular model for inhibition and deinhibition of hexokinase was recently proposed [Ellison, W. R., Lueck, J. D., and Fromm, H. J. (1975) J. Biol. Chem.250, 1864–1871]. One of the central assumptions of this model is that glucose-6-P is a normal product inhibitor of hexokinase. It has long been suggested that glucose-6-P is an allosteric inhibitor of hexokinase, whereas other sugar-phosphate products such as mannose-6-P are normal product inhibitors. In this report we investigated the kinetic mechanism of hexokinase action with mannose as substrate and mannose-6-P as an inhibitor. The data obtained show that there are no qualitative differences between glucose and mannose as substrates and glucose-6-P and mannose-6-P as inhibitors. Binding experiments indicate that glucose-6-P and mannose-6-P are competitive binding ligands with hexokinase I. Furthermore, the activation pattern observed with Pi and glucose-6-P inhibited hexokinase is also found with the mannose-6-P inhibited phosphotransferase. These findings suggest that the mechanism of inhibition of glucose-6-P and mannose-6-P represents a difference in degree rather than a difference in kind. An explanation of the results in terms of a stereochemical model is presented. 相似文献

The interaction of CrADP, an exchange-inert paramagnetic analogue of Mg-ADP, with yeast hexokinase has been studied by measuring the effects of CrADP on the longitudinal nuclear relaxation rate (1/T1) of the protons of water and the protons and phosphorus atom of enzyme-bound glucose-6-P. The paramagnetic effect of CrADP on 1/T1 of water protons is enhanced upon complexation with the enzyme. Titrations measuring this paramagnetic effect at several enzyme concentrations in the presence of glucose-6-P yielded a characteristic enhancement factor for 1/T1 of water protons and the dissociation constant of CrADP from the ternary enzyme . ADPCr . glucose-6-P complex. The latter value (2 mM) is similar to that obtained from kinetic inhibition studies (Danenberg and Cleland [1975]. Biochemistry. 14:28). The presence of glucose-6-P increased the enhancement of the water relaxation rate by enzyme-bound CrADP, suggesting the formation of an enzyme . CrADP . glucose-6-P complex. The existence of such a complex was confirmed by the observation of a paramagnetic effect of enzyme-bound CrADP on the l/T1 of the 31P-nucleus and protons of enzyme-bound glucose-6-P. From the paramagnetic effects of enzyme-bound CrADP on the relaxation rates of the 31P-nucleus and the carbon-bound protons of glucose-6-P in the enzyme . ADPCr . glucose-6-P complex, using the correlation time of approximately 0.7 ns, determined from the magnetic field-dependence of 1/T1 of water protons over the range 24.3-360 MHz, a Cr3+ to phosphorus distance of 6.6 +/- 0.7 A and Cr3+ to alpha- and beta-anomeric proton distances of 8.9 and 9.7 A were calculated. These results imply the absence of a direct coordination of the phosphoryl group of glucose-6-P by the nucleotide-bound metal on hexokinase but indicate van der Waals contact between a phosphoryl oxygen of glucose-6-P and the hydration sphere of the nucleotide-bound metal. The distances are consistent with a model that assumes molecular contact between the phosphorus of glucose-6-P and a beta-phosphoryl oxygen of ADP suggesting an associative phosphoryl transfer. Because after phosphorylation of ADP, the metal ion is coordinated to the transferred phosphoryl group, the overall migration of the phosphoryl group during the phosphoryl transfer is approximately 3.6 A toward the nucleotide-bound metal. Little or no catalysis of phosphoryl transfer from glucose-6-P to alpha, beta-bidentate or beta-monodentate CrADP ( less than or equal to 0.05% of the rate found with MgADP) occurred in the presence of hexokinase, as monitored by glucose formation in a coupled assay system using glucose oxidase and peroxidase.

Frog oocyte glycogen synthase properties differ significantly under in vitro or in vivo conditions. The K(mapp) for UDP-glucose in vivo was 1.4mM (in the presence or absence of glucose-6-P). The in vitro value was 6mM and was reduced by glucose-6-P to 0.8mM. Under both conditions (in vitro and in vivo) V(max) was 0.2 m Units per oocyte in the absence of glucose-6-P. V(max) in vivo was stimulated 2-fold by glucose-6-P, whereas, in vitro, a 10-fold increase was obtained. Glucose-6-P required for 50% activation in vivo was 15 microM and, depending on substrate concentrations, 50-100 microM in vitro. The prevailing enzyme obtained in vitro was the glucose-6-P-dependent form, which may be converted to the independent species by dephosphorylation. This transformation could not be observed in vivo. We suggest that enzyme activation by glucose-6-P in vivo is due to allosteric effects rather than to dephosphorylation of the enzyme. Regulatory mechanisms other than allosteric activation and covalent phosphorylation are discussed. 相似文献

The glucose-6-P independent (I) and dependent (D) forms of yeast glycogen synthetase were separated by DEAE-cellulose chromatography. Transformation of the I form into the D form with the appropriate kinase led to the expected shift in position of the eluted synthetase peak, without effect on other proteins. The apparent molecular weights of the D and I forms as obtained from sucrose density gradient centrifugation were 270,000 and 230,000, respectively. 相似文献

Purification and characterization of glycogen synthase from a glycogen-deficient strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Chromatography of wild-type yeast extracts on DEAE-cellulose columns resolves two populations of glycogen synthase I (glucose-6-P-independent) and D (glucose-6-P-dependent) (Huang, K. P., Cabib, E. (1974) J. Biol. Chem. 249, 3851-3857). Extracts from a glycogen-deficient mutant strain, 22R1 (glc7), yielded only the D form of glycogen synthase. Glycogen synthase D purified from either wild-type yeast or from this glycogen-deficient mutant displayed two polypeptides with molecular masses of 76 and 83 kDa on sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis in a protein ratio of about 4:1. Phosphate analysis showed that glycogen synthase D from either strain of yeast contained approximately 3 phosphates/subunit. The 76- and 83-kDa bands of the mutant strain copurified through a variety of procedures including nondenaturing gel electrophoresis. These two polypeptides showed immunological cross-reactivity and similar peptide maps indicating that they are structurally related. The relative amounts of these two forms remained constant during purification and storage of the enzyme and after treatment with cAMP-dependent protein kinase or with protein phosphatases. The two polypeptides were phosphorylated to similar extent in vitro by the catalytic subunit of mammalian cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. Phosphorylation of the enzyme in the presence of labeled ATP followed by tryptic digestion and reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography yielded two labeled peptides from each of the 76- and 83-kDa subunits. Treatment of wild-type yeast with Li+ increased the glycogen synthase activity, measured in the absence of glucose-6-P, by approximately 2-fold, whereas similar treatment of the glc7 mutant had no effect. The results of this study indicate that the GLC7 gene is involved in a pathway that regulates the phosphorylation state of glycogen synthase. 相似文献

The inhibition patterns of inorganic phosphate (Pi) on sucrose phosphate synthase activity in the presence and absence of the allosteric activator glucose-6-P was studied, as well as the effects of phosphoglucoisomerase on fructose-6-P saturation kinetics with and without Pi. In the presence of 5 millimolar glucose-6-P, Pi was a partial competitive inhibitor with respect to both substrates, fructose-6-P and uridine diphosphate glucose. In the absence of glucose-6-P, the inhibition patterns were more complex, apparently because of the interaction of Pi at the activation site as well as the catalytic site. In addition, substrate activation by uridine diphosphate glucose was observed in the absence of effectors. The results suggested that Pi antagonizes glucose-6-P activation of sucrose phosphate synthase by competing with the activator for binding to the modifier site.
The fructose-6-P saturation kinetics were hyperbolic in the absence of phosphoglucoisomerase activity, but became sigmoidal by the addition of excess phosphoglucoisomerase. The sigmoidicity persisted in the presence of Pi, but sucrose phosphate synthase activity was decreased. The apparent sigmoidal response may represent the physiological response of sucrose phosphate synthase to a change in hexose-P concentration because sucrose phosphate synthase operates in the cytosol in the presence of high activities of phosphoglucoisomerase. Thus, the enzymic production of an activator from a substrate represents a unique mechanism for generating sigmoidal enzyme kinetics.

The importance of membrane integrity in kinetic characterizations of the microsomal glucose-6-phosphatase system 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The transport model of glucose-6-phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.9) was recently challenged by a report that detergent treatment had no effect on the presteady state kinetics of glucose-6-P hydrolysis catalyzed at 0 degree C by the enzyme in liver microsomes previously frozen in 0.25 M mannitol (Zakim, D., and Edmondson, D. E. (1982) J. Biol. Chem. 257, 1145-1148). The lack of response to detergent is shown to be the expected consequence of the conditions used in the presteady state measurements. First, when the assay temperature was reduced from 30 to 0 degree C the depression in the glucose-6-P phosphohydrolase activity of intact microsomes (i.e. the system) was much greater than that of fully disrupted microsomes (i.e. enzyme). This indicates that temperature influences transport much more than hydrolysis of glucose-6-P. As a result, the contribution of a small fraction of enzyme associated with disrupted structures is markedly exaggerated, so it becomes the predominant hydrolytic activity before detergent treatment. Second, freezing microsomes in 0.25 M mannitol caused such extensive disruption that all of the activity manifest at 0 degree C could be attributed to enzyme in disrupted structures. The present findings underscore the importance of assessing the state of intactness of "untreated" microsomes and quantifying the contribution of the disrupted component in kinetic analyses of the glucose-6-phosphatase system. The proposition that the detergent-induced changes in the kinetic properties of glucose 6-phosphatase represent removal of constraints imposed on the enzyme by the membrane environment rather than increased access of enzyme to substrate is critically analyzed. 相似文献
