The mode of action of lithium in prophylaxis of recurrent affective disorder is unknown although it has been suggested that lithium might compete with magnesium in magnesium dependent processes. We have previously shown pyruvate kinase to be inhibited by lithium and the present study demonstrates a small inhibition by lithium of phosphofructokinase that is also a major regulatory step in glycolysis. Inhibition of PFK was competitive with respect to ATP and magnesium and noncompetitive with respect to potassium and fructose-6-phosphate. Inhibition was enhanced at reduced concentrations of magnesium. 相似文献

Hepatocytes were isolated by collagenase perfusion of livers from rats that had been allowed access to a carbohydrate-rich diet or laboratory chow or had been deprived of food 48h before use. By incubation with l-[4,5-(3)H]leucine and precipitation with anti-(L-type pyruvate kinase) sera the rates of synthesis and degradation of L-type pyruvate kinase were measured in freshly prepared cells and hepatocytes maintained in monolayer culture for up to 5 days. Hepatocytes from carbohydrate-rich-diet-fed rats synthesized more L-type pyruvate kinase than did cells from chow-fed animals, which in turn synthesized more than cells from 48h-starved rats. Hepatocytes maintained in culture for up to 5 days synthesized L-type pyruvate kinase at similar rates to freshly prepared cells. The degradation of [(3)H]leucine-labelled L-type pyruvate kinase was shown to be biphasic. A phase with t((1/2)) (half-time) 4.9h and a duration of 8-10h was followed by a phase with t((1/2)) 79.2h. Cells from chow-fed and carbohydrate-rich-diet-fed rats showed similar patterns of degradation of L-type pyruvate kinase. The addition of 2mm-fructose and 0.1mum-insulin to the culture medium increased the t((1/2)) of the rapid phase to 12h in cells isolated from carbohydrate-rich-diet-fed rats, but not in cells from chow-fed rats. The secondary, slower, phase of degradation remained unaffected. The degradation of fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase and total cell protein followed first-order kinetics. The half-life of fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase was 41.0h in cells from chow-fed animals and 48.5h in cells from carbohydrate-rich-diet-fed donors. Fructose and insulin did not affect the rate of enzyme degradation. We propose that there is a role for protein catabolism in the short-term and long-term control of L-type pyruvate kinase concentration. 相似文献

Control of pyruvate kinase activity during glycolysis and gluconeogenesis in Propionibacterium shermanii 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The concentrations of glycolytic intermediates and ATP and the activities of certain glycolytic and gluconeogenic enzymes were determined in Propionibacterium shermanii cultures grown on a fully defined medium with glucose, glycerol or lactate as energy source. On all three energy sources, enzyme activities were similar and pyruvate kinase was considerably more active than the gluconeogenic enzyme pyruvate, orthophosphate dikinase, indicating the need for regulation of pyruvate kinase activity. The intracellular concentration of glucose 6-phosphate, a specific activator of pyruvate kinase in this organism, changed markedly according to both the nature and the concentration of the growth substrate: the concentration (7-10 mM) during growth with excess glucose or glycerol was higher than that (1-2 mM) during growth with lactate or at growth-limiting concentrations of glycerol or glucose. Other glycolytic intermediates, apart from pyruvate, were present at concentrations below 2 mM. Glucose 6-phosphate overcame inhibition of pyruvate kinase activity by ATP and inorganic phosphate. With 1 mM-ATP and more than 10 mM inorganic phosphate, a change in glucose 6-phosphate concentration from 1-2 mM was sufficient to switch pyruvate kinase from a strongly inhibited to a fully active state. The results provide a plausible mechanism for the regulation of glycolysis and gluconeogenesis in P. shermanii. 相似文献

The hormonal regulation of L-type pyruvate kinase in hepatocytes from phosphorylase b kinase-deficient (gsd/gsd) rats was investigated. Adrenaline (10 microM) and glucagon (10 nM) each led to an inactivation and phosphorylation of pyruvate kinase. Dose-response curves for adrenaline-mediated inactivation of pyruvate kinase, phosphorylation of pyruvate kinase and the stimulation of gluconeogenesis from 1.8 mM-lactate were similar for hepatocytes from control and gsd/gsd rats. Time-course studies indicated that adrenaline-mediated inactivation and phosphorylation of pyruvate kinase proceeded more slowly in phosphorylase kinase-deficient hepatocytes than in control hepatocytes. The age-dependent change in the adrenergic control of pyruvate kinase was similar between control and phosphorylase kinase-deficient hepatocytes. Adrenaline, glucagon and noradrenaline activated the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase and inhibited pyruvate kinase in phosphorylase kinase-deficient hepatocytes. Vasopressin (0.2-2 nM), angiotensin (10nM) and A23187 (10 microM) had no effect on the activity ratio of the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase or pyruvate kinase in these cells. It is concluded that phosphorylase kinase plays no significant role in the hormonal control of pyruvate kinase and that phosphorylation and inactivation of this enzyme results predominantly from the action of the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. 相似文献

Hepatocytes were prepared from a strain of rats deficient in hepatic phosphorylase kinase and were used to assess the role of this enzyme in the adrenergic regulation of pyruvate kinase and gluconeogenesis. Epinephrine (10 μM) stimulated glucose output and gluconeogenesis from 1.8 mM lactate but did not significantly affect the concentration of hepatocyte glycogen. In addition epinephrine treatment led to an inhibition of pyruvate kinase. The stimulation of gluconeogenesis and the inhibition of pyruvate kinase by epinephrine were blocked by both α- and β-antagonists: similar effects with epinephrine were observed in cells from control animals. It is concluded that mechanisms for the adrenergic regulation of pyruvate kinase and gluconeogenesis are similar in hepatocytes from both phosphorylase kinase-deficient and normal rats. 相似文献

To determine which of the major isoenzymes of pyruvate kinase pancreatic islet pyruvate kinase most resembled, it was compared to pyruvate kinase from other tissues in kinetic and immunologic studies. The pattern of activation by fructose bisphosphate and the patterns of inhibition by alanine and phenylalanine were most similar to those of the M2 isoenzyme from kidney and were dissimilar to those of the isoenzymes from skeletal muscle (type M1) and liver (type L). The islet pyruvate kinase was inhibited by anti-M1 pyruvate kinase serum (which crossreacts with the M2 isoenzyme), but not by anti-L pyruvate kinase. These results are most consistent with islets possessing predominantly, if not exclusively, the M2 isoenzyme of pyruvate kinase. We previously showed that rat pancreatic islet cytosol contains protein kinases that can catalyze a calcium-activated phosphorylation of an endogenous peptide that has properties, such as subunit molecular weight and isoelectric pH, that are identical to those of the M2 and M, isoenzymes of pyruvate kinase, and that islet cytosol can catalyze phosphorylation of muscle pyruvate kinase. In the present study it was shown that incubating islet cytosol with ATP under conditions known to permit phosphorylation and inhibition of liver pyruvate kinase did not affect the islet pyruvate kinase activity. It is concluded that phosphorylation of the islet pyruvate kinase has no immediate effect on enzyme activity.Abbreviations EGTA

The activity of pyruvate kinase from the isolated rat hepatocyte was studied under conditions which allow investigation into the hormonal regulation of the enzyme. Incubating hepatocytes from fed or fasted rats with 1 μm glucagon gives approximately 60% inhibition of the enzyme activity determined at 1.6 mm P-enolpyruvate. A good correlation between the regulation of pyruvate kinase and lactate formation from 10 mm dihydroxyacetone is observed in hepatocytes from fasted rats. When hepatocytes are incubated in a Krebs-Ringer phosphate buffer, the inhibition of the pyruvate kinase activity by 1 μm glucagon is not accompanied by a marked inhibition of lactate production from fructose. Half-maximal regulation is observed at 0.26 ± 0.02 nm glucagon and 0.37 ± 0.05 nm glucagon for the enzyme and lactate formation from dihydroxyacetone respectively. Incubating hepatocytes with 10 mm l-alanine enhances inhibition of pyruvate kinase by physiological concentrations of glucagon, lowering the half-maximally effective concentration of glucagon from 0.3 nm to approximately 0.1 nm. A small but consistent inhibition of pyruvate kinase by 10 μm epinephrine is also observed and this inhibition is enhanced by 0.5 mm theophylline and by 10 mm l-alanine. The inhibition of pyruvate kinase by epinephrine both in the absence and presence of theophylline is blocked by the α-adrenergic antagonist phenoxybenzamine. The β-adrenergic blocker propranolol has no influence on the inhibition of the enzyme by epinephrine. Adenosine 3′:5′-monophosphate, N6O2-dibutyryl adenosine 3′:5′-monophosphate, and guanosine 3′:5′-monophosphate also inhibit glycolysis from dihydroxyacetone and modulate pyruvate kinase activity in hepatocytes from fasted rats. Oleate, ethanol, and 3-hydroxybutyrate inhibit dihydroxyacetone glycolysis, but they do not influence the activity of pyruvate kinase. The divalent metal ionophore A23187 slightly stimulates lactate synthesis from dihydroxyacetone, but it has no influence on pyruvate kinase activity. 相似文献

Abstract: The distribution of pyruvate kinase (ATP pyruvate phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.40) in the nervous system has been studied by both immunofluorescence and a histochemical procedure using nitro blue tetrazolium. The localization in various parts of rat central nervous system in situ , cerebellar and cerebral cortex, was compared to that found in vitro in cultures of cerebellum, spinal ganglia, cerebral astrocytes, and skin fibroblasts. (1) Pyruvate kinase was found predominantly in the cytoplasm of neuronal cell bodies. (2) Large neurons were better visualized than small ones. (3) No glial localization was clearly demonstrated in situ , although this does not rule out the presence of some M1 pyruvate kinase. (4) Regions expected to be rich in nerve terminals, such as the cerebellar glomeruli or the cerebellar molecular layer, showed intense staining even when the cell bodies themselves were negative. This was expected, owing to the previous demonstration of the presence of M1 pyruvate kinase in nerve ending by subcellular fractionation methods. (5) The localization was similar in situ and in tissue culture, except that nerve processes were better seen in the latter and astrocytes were sometimes stained in vitro. (6) Variation in intensity of staining was observed in similar cell types in the same section or in the same culture. This could represent different metabolic or functional or maturational states. 相似文献

The ability for various ligands to modulate the binding of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate (Fru-1,6-P2) with purified rat liver pyruvate kinase was examined. Binding of Fru-1,6-P2 with pyruvate kinase exhibits positive cooperativity, with maximum binding of 4 mol Fru-1,6-P2 per enzyme tetramer. The Hill coefficient (nH), and the concentration of Fru-1,6-P2 giving half-maximal binding [FBP]1/2, are influenced by several factors. In 150 mM Tris-HCl, 70 mM KCl, 11 mM MgSO4 at pH 7.4, [FBP]1/2 is 2.6 microM and nH is 2.7. Phosphoenolpyruvate and pyruvate enhance the binding of Fru-1,6-P2 by decreasing [FBP]1/2. ADP and ATP alone had little influence on Fru-1,6-P2 binding. However, the nucleotides antagonize the response elicited by pyruvate or phosphoenolpyruvate, suggesting that the competent enzyme substrate complex does not favor Fru-1,6-P2 binding. Phosphorylation of pyruvate kinase or the inclusion of alanine in the medium, two actions which inhibit the enzyme activity, result in diminished binding of low concentrations of Fru-1,6-P2 with the enzyme. These effectors do not alter the maximum binding capacity of the enzyme but rather they raise the concentrations of Fru-1,6-P2 needed for maximum binding. Phosphorylation also decreased the nH for Fru-1,6-P2 binding from 2.7 to 1.7. Pyruvate kinase activity is dependent on a divalent metal ion. Substituting Mn2+ for Mg2+ results in a 60% decrease in the maximum catalytic activity for the enzyme and decreases the concentration of phosphoenolpyruvate needed for half-maximal activity from 1 to 0.1 mM. As a consequence, Mn2+ stimulates activity at subsaturating concentrations of phosphoenolpyruvate, but inhibits at saturating concentrations of the substrate or in the presence of Fru-1,6-P2. Both Mg2+ and Mn2+ diminish binding of low concentrations of Fru-1,6-P2; however, the concentrations of the metal ions needed to influence Fru-1,6-P2 binding exceed those needed to support catalytic activity. 相似文献

(1) Pyruvate kinase type M2 from rat lung has been purified 840-fold with an overall yield of 20%. The enzyme gave a single band upon SDS-electrophoresis and isoelectrofocusing and had a specific activity of 1340 U/mg protein. The homotetramer of Mr = 224 000 and an isoelectric point of pH 5.8 had an amino acid composition closely resembling that of other pyruvate kinase isoenzymes type M2, excepts that of the chicken liver. The enzyme was crystallized. (2) The enzyme has its pH optimum at pH 6.5. The K0.5 value for phosphoenolpyruvate is 0.26 mM (nH = 1.81) which decreases in the presence of 0.2 mM fructose 1,6-bisphosphate to 0.056 mM (nH = 1.06). 1 μM fructose 1,6-bisphosphate activates the enzyme at 0.1 mM phosphoenolpyruvate half-maximally. The Km value for ADP at 1 mM phosphoenolpyruvate is 0.4 mM. The Km value for other nucleoside diphosphates increases in the order ADP<GDP<IDP<UDP. (3) No evidence for an interconversion of pyruvate kinase type M2 from rat or chicken lung was found. The enzyme was neither a substrate for the cAMP-dependent protein kinase from rabbit muscle nor for the cAMP-independent protein kinase from chicken liver. Since pyruvate kinase type M2 from chicken liver is inactivated by phosphorylation catalyzed by a cAMP-independent protein kinase (Eigenbrodt, E., Abdel-Fattah Mostafa, M. and Schoner, W. (1977) Hoppe-Seyler's Z. Physiol. Chem. 358, 1047–1055) we suggest that the interconvertible form of pyruvate kinase type M2 may represent a separate form of the pyruvate kinase type M2 family. 相似文献

1. The mechanism by which insulin activates pyruvate dehydrogenase in rat epididymal adipose tissue was further investigated. 2. When crude extracts, prepared from tissue segments previously exposed to insulin (2m-i.u/ml) for 2min, were supplemented with Mg-2+, Ca-2+, glucose and hexokinase and incubated at 30 degrees C, they displayed an enhanced rate of increase in pyruvate dehydrogenase activity compared with control extracts. 3. When similar extracts were instead supplemented with fluoride, ADP, creatine phosphate and creatine kinase, the rate of decrease in pyruvate dehydrogenase activity observed during incubation at 30 degrees C was unaffected by insulin treatment. 4. It is suggested that insulin increases the fraction of pyruvate dehydrogenase present in the tissue in the active dephospho form by increasing the activity of pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphate phosphatase. 相似文献

An electrophoretically detectable variant of pyruvate kinase (EC 2.7.1.40) has been found in the house mouse Mus musculus. The variant was seen in all tissues examined except liver and red cells. The gene (Pk-3) determining this electrophoretic variation is inherited as an autosomal codominant located on chromosome 9. Our data confirm that the genetic determination of pyruvate kinase in liver and red cells is separate from that in other tissues. In addition, our results indicate that the muscle (M1) and kidney (M2) pyruvate kinase isozymes share at least one genetic determinant and may in fact be determined by the same structural gene.This work was supported by the Medical Research Council and by NIH Grants GM 20919 and RR 01183.

A method for the localization of pyruvate kinase isoenzymes type L, M2 and M1 in tissue sections is described. Mono-specific antibodies directed against isoenzymes of pyruvate kinase from chicken and the peroxidase antiperoxidase method were used. The following preferential localizations of the isoenzymes in chicken tissues were observed: Pyruvate kinase M1 was found in skeletal muscle. The white muscle fibers were more intensely stained than the red. Some dark muscles (e.g., anterior latissimus dorsi) and the heart muscle showed no reaction with antiserum against pyruvate kinase M1. Pyruvate kinase type L was found in the hepatocytes and in kidney cortex. Pyruvate kinase type M2 was seen in the distal tubules of kidney, in hepatocytes and sinusoidal cells in liver, in lung, adipose tissue, and in the spleen mainly in the bursa dependent areas. Pyruvate kinase type M2 was detected in high concentrations in the granulation tissue of regenerating liver after partial hepatectomy. Liver sections of a hen bearing a pancreatic tumor showed an unusually high content of pyruvate kinase type M2 in some hepatocytes, which were each clustered to spots in the liver parenchyma. Thus, contrary to previous reports, the tissue distribution of isoenzymes in chicken is similar to that of other vertebrates. 相似文献

Inherited persistence of immature type pyruvate kinase and hexokinase isozymes in dog erythrocytes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

1. Red cell pyruvate kinase (EC 2.7.1.40) and hexokinase (EC 2.7.1.1) in high and low potassium (K) dogs were shown to exist as multiple forms which were separable by electrophoresis and ion-exchange chromatography. The R2-type pyruvate kinase, which was determined to be a young type enzyme in canine red cells, was shown to be the predominant form of pyruvate kinase in high K cells. 2. The M2-type pyruvate kinase, a prototype isozyme in erythroid cells, existed in high K dog erythrocytes as well as in high K and low K dog reticulocytes. 3. Isozyme analysis of high K red cell hexokinase also showed a profile similar to that obtained for low K reticulocytes. 4. These results seem to reflect the immaturity of high K erythrocytes, which suggest that an abnormal cell differentiation or maturation may occur at an early stage of erythroid cell proliferation in high K dogs. 相似文献

1. The proton-transfer reactions of yeast pyruvate kinase (EC 2.7.1.40) were studied. Proton-transfer from C-3 of phosphoenolpyruvate to water occurs only in the presence of the phosphoryl-acceptor ADP. Proton transfer from C-3 of pyruvate to water occurs only in the presence of ATP. However, the proton transfer in the latter case occurs 10-100 times faster than phosphoryl transfer; this supports a mechanism in which proton transfer precedes phosphoryl transfer in the reverse reaction of pyruvate kinase. 2. The characteristics of proton-transfer reactions of yeast pyruvate kinase were compared with those previously reported for rabbit muscle pyruvate kinase (Robinson, JL. and Rose, I.A. (1972) J. Biol. Chem. 247, 1096-1105). The pH-profiles and the divalent cation dependencies were similar for Fru-1,6-P2-activated yeast pyruvate kinase and the muscle enzyme. Pyruvate enolization by yeast pyruvate kinase has an absolute requirement for ATP in contrast to enolization by the muscle enzyme which proceeds when ATP is replaced by Pi or other dianions. 3. Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate was shown to affect the catelytic steps of yeast pyruvate kinase in addition to the binding of substrates. Its role depends on the divalent cation used to activate the enzyme. 相似文献

1. The activity of pig heart pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase was assayed by the incorporation of [(32)P]phosphate from [gamma-(32)P]ATP into the dehydrogenase complex. There was a very close correlation between this incorporation and the loss of pyruvate dehydrogenase activity with all preparations studied. 2. Nucleoside triphosphates other than ATP (at 100mum) and cyclic 3':5'-nucleotides (at 10mum) had no significant effect on kinase activity. 3. The K(m) for thiamin pyrophosphate in the pyruvate dehydrogenase reaction was 0.76mum. Sodium pyrophosphate, adenylyl imidodiphosphate, ADP and GTP were competitive inhibitors against thiamin pyrophosphate in the dehydrogenase reaction. 4. The K(m) for ATP of the intrinsic kinase assayed in three preparations of pig heart pyruvate dehydrogenase was in the range 13.9-25.4mum. Inhibition by ADP and adenylyl imidodiphosphate was predominantly competitive, but there was nevertheless a definite non-competitive element. Thiamin pyrophosphate and sodium pyrophosphate were uncompetitive inhibitors against ATP. It is suggested that ADP and adenylyl imidodiphosphate inhibit the kinase mainly by binding to the ATP site and that the adenosine moiety may be involved in this binding. It is suggested that thiamin pyrophosphate, sodium pyrophosphate, adenylyl imidodiphosphate and ADP may inhibit the kinase by binding through pyrophosphate or imidodiphosphate moieties at some site other than the ATP site. It is not known whether this is the coenzyme-binding site in the pyruvate dehydrogenase reaction. 5. The K(m) for pyruvate in the pyruvate dehydrogenase reaction was 35.5mum. 2-Oxobutyrate and 3-hydroxypyruvate but not glyoxylate were also substrates; all three compounds inhibited pyruvate oxidation. 6. In preparations of pig heart pyruvate dehydrogenase free of thiamin pyrophosphate, pyruvate inhibited the kinase reaction at all concentrations in the range 25-500mum. The inhibition was uncompetitive. In the presence of thiamin pyrophosphate (endogenous or added at 2 or 10mum) the kinase activity was enhanced by low concentrations of pyruvate (25-100mum) and inhibited by a high concentration (500mum). Activation of the kinase reaction was not seen when sodium pyrophosphate was substituted for thiamin pyrophosphate. 7. Under the conditions of the kinase assay, pig heart pyruvate dehydrogenase forms (14)CO(2) from [1-(14)C]pyruvate in the presence of thiamin pyrophosphate. Previous work suggests that the products may include acetoin. Acetoin activated the kinase reaction in the presence of thiamin pyrophosphate but not with sodium pyrophosphate. It is suggested that acetoin formation may contribute to activation of the kinase reaction by low pyruvate concentrations in the presence of thiamin pyrophosphate. 8. Pyruvate effected the conversion of pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphate into pyruvate dehydrogenase in rat heart mitochondria incubated with 5mm-2-oxoglutarate and 0.5mm-l-malate as respiratory substrates. It is suggested that this effect of pyruvate is due to inhibition of the pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase reaction in the mitochondrion. 9. Pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase activity was inhibited by high concentrations of Mg(2+) (15mm) and by Ca(2+) (10nm-10mum) at low Mg(2+) (0.15mm) but not at high Mg(2+) (15mm). 相似文献

The effect of dexamethasone on pyruvate kinase activity in primary cultures of hepatocytes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Pyruvate kinase activity in primary cultures of hepatocytes isolated from a normal rat was maintained at a constant level similar to that found in vivo (14.0 +/- 2.8 units per mg of DNA) for over 6 days when both dexamethasone and insulin were included in the medium. Yet the pyruvate kinase activity decreased 50% when the cells were cultured for 2 days and 4 days, respectively, in the presence of either dexamethasone or insulin alone. A brief, 10 min incubation of hepatocytes in the presence of dexamethasone was sufficient to maintain the enzyme activity of cells subsequently cultured for 4 days in the presence of insulin. The optimal dexamethasone concentration was 1 microM. Three other glucocorticoids were able to maintain the pyruvate kinase activity in cells cultured in medium containing insulin. The presence of the protein synthesis inhibitors, actinomycin D or cyclohexamide in cells cultured in the presence of dexamethasone and insulin resulted in a 25% decrease in the pyruvate kinase activity. Therefore, it is suggested that the synergistic effect of glucocorticoids and insulin to maintain pyruvate kinase activity in primary cultures of hepatocytes is dependent upon the ability of these cells to maintain protein synthesis. 相似文献

Hepatocytes were isolated from preweaned neonatal and adult rats and maintained in primary monolayer culture. Cells from preweaned newborns possessed no L-type pyruvate kinase, nor did they synthesize the enzyme. Incubation for 48-72 h in culture medium supplemented with 2 mM-fructose and 0.1 microM-insulin induced the synthesis of L-type pyruvate kinase, as judged by increased enzyme activity and the increased incorporation of [3H]leucine into immunoprecipitable L-type pyruvate kinase. Hepatocytes isolated from 48 h-starved adult rats incorporated less [3H]leucine into L-type pyruvate kinase than did cells isolated from high-carbohydrate-diet-fed rats. The rate of enzyme synthesis by cells from 48 h-starved rats was increased by the inclusion of fructose and insulin in the incubation medium, after a lag phase of 24-48 h. After 4 days in culture in the presence of fructose and insulin, hepatocytes from 48 h-starved rats synthesized L-type pyruvate kinase at similar rates to hepatocytes isolated from high-carbohydrate-diet-fed rats. 相似文献

Phosphorylation of L-type pyruvate kinase by a Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Rat liver L-type pyruvate kinase was phosphorylated in vitro by a Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase purified from rabbit liver. The calmodulin (CaM)-dependent kinase catalyzed incorporation of up to 1.7 mol of 32P/mol of pyruvate kinase subunit; maximum phosphorylation was associated with a 3.0-fold increase in the K0.5 for P-enolpyruvate. This compares to incorporation of 0.7 to 1.0 mol of 32P/mol catalyzed by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase with a 2-fold increase in K0.5 for P-enolpyruvate. When [32P]pyruvate kinase, phosphorylated by the CaM-dependent protein kinase, was subsequently incubated with 5 mM ADP and cAMP-dependent protein kinase (kinase reversal conditions), 50-60% of the 32PO4 was removed from pyruvate kinase, but the K0.5 for P-enolpyruvate decreased only 20-30%. Identification of 32P-amino acids after partial acid hydrolysis showed that the CaM-dependent protein kinase phosphorylated both threonyl and seryl residues (ratio of 1:2, respectively) whereas the cAMP-dependent protein kinase phosphorylated only seryl groups. The two phosphorylation sites were present in the same 3-4-kDa CNBr fragment located near the amino terminus of the enzyme subunit. These results indicate that the CaM-dependent protein kinase catalyzed phosphorylation of L-type pyruvate kinase at two discrete sites. One site is apparently the same serine which is phosphorylated by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase. The second site is a unique threonine residue whose phosphorylation also inactivates pyruvate kinase by elevating the K0.5 for P-enolpyruvate. These results may account for the Ca2+-dependent phosphorylation of pyruvate kinase observed in isolated hepatocytes. 相似文献
