Abstract— Phosphorylase b kinase (ATP: phosphorylase phosphotransferase; EC 2.7.1.38), the enzyme which converts phosphorylase b to phosphorylase a (α-1,4-glucan: orthophosphate glucosyltransferase; EC2.4.1.1) was examined in nerve tissue. Both phosphorylase and phosphorylase kinase were present in all nerve tissues tested, with central tissues about ten times as active as peripheral nerve. Exceptions were the superior cervical and stellate ganglia, tissues rich in synapses, which displayed activity similar to brain. Phosphorylase kinase in brain had properties similar to those of the enzyme in skeletal and cardiac muscle; it was activated in vitro by ATP and adenosine 3′,5′-monophosphate (cyclic AMP) and by Ca2+. Subconvulsive doses of insulin or of amphetamine administered to mice produced some activation of the enzyme. It is concluded that the mechanism for activation of phosphorylase in nerve tissue is similar to that in muscle. 相似文献

Summary Isolated chloroplasts from the bundle sheath cells show considerable activity of the ADPG- and UDPG-pyrophosphorylase (EC 2.7.7.9), ADPG- and UDPG-transglucosylase (EC 2.4.1.21), and the starch phosphorylase (EC 2.4.1.1). In chloroplasts of the palisade cells, on the other hand, only the UDPG-pyrophosphorylase is remarkably active. 相似文献

The presence of AMP aminohydrolase (EC 3.5.4.6) activity in glycogen phosphorylase b (EC 2.4.1.1) preparations, suggested by L. N. Johnson, N. B. Madsen, J. Mosley, and K. S. Wilson (1974, J. Mol. Biol.90, 703–717), has been confirmed in our laboratory. Since the hydrolase catalyzes the conversion of AMP into IMP the presence of traces of this impurity would dramatically affect, and could even invalidate, the results concerning some studies on the phosphorylase b-AMP interaction. The incubation of the phosphorylase b preparations with alumina Cγ in the cold for a brief period of time is proposed as a simple method of efficiently eliminating this impurity. 相似文献

Summary In connection with the problem of the well-known stability of statolith starch, some enzymes of starch metabolism have been investigated qualitatively in the root cap cells of Zea mays L. No activity of granule-bound UDPG- and ADPG-transglucosylase (EC 2.4.1.21) could be found. In the soluble enzyme fraction of the root cap cells, on the other hand, activities of phosphorylase (EC 2.4.1.1), sucrose synthetase (EC 2.4.1.13), UDPG-pyrophosphorylase (EC 2.7.7.9), -Amylase (EC 3.2.11), Maltase (EC 3.2.1.20), and D-enzyme (EC 2.4.1.25) were clearly shown to be present. However, no measurable activities of ADPG-pyrophosphorylase, sucrose-6-phosphate-synthetase (EC 2.4.1.14) and UDPG-dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.22) could be found. It is concluded that the stability of statolith starch in the root cap cells is not caused by the lack of enzymes of starch metabolism, but perhaps by a dynamic equilibrium between the degradation and the synthesis of starch. The later could proceed by the activity of phosphorylase working in the direction of starch synthesis because of removal of the inorganic phosphate by phosphorylating mitochondria accumulating in the neighbourhood of the statolith amyloplasts. 相似文献

Mutants of Escherichia coli unable to metabolize cytidine: isolation and characterization 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12

Summary Strains of Escherichia coli have been selected, which contain mutations in the udk gene, encoding uridine kinase. The gene has been located on the chromosome as cotransducible with the his gene and shown to be responsible for both uridine and cytidine kinase activities in the cell.An additional mutation in the cdd gene (encoding cytidine deaminase) has been introduced, thus rendering the cells unable to metabolize cytidine. In these mutants exogenously added cytidine acts as inducer of nucleoside catabolizing enzymes indicating that cytidine per se is the actual inducer.When the udk, cdd mutants are grown on minimal medium the enzyme levels are considerably higher than in wild type cells. Evidence is presented indicating that the high levels are due to intracellular accumulation of cytidine, which acts as endogenous inducer.Abbreviations and Symbols FU

The content of glycolytic intermediates and of adenine nucleotides was measured in eggs of the echiuroid, Urechis unicinctus and the oyster, Crassostrea gigas, before and after fertilization. On the whole, the profile of the change in each glycolytic intermediate in Urechis eggs upon fertilization was found to be essentially similar to that in oyster eggs. Calculation of the mass action ratio for each glycolytic step from the amounts of glycolytic intermediates determined suggests that there are at least three limiting enzymes in the glycolysis system in unfertilized and fertilized eggs of each species examined. Phosphorylase (EC 2.4.1.1), phosphofructokinase (EC 2.7.1.11), and pyruvate kinase (EC 2.7.1.40) may be rate-limiting enzymes for the glycolysis system in Urechis eggs as well as in oyster eggs. These enzymes are thought to be activated upon fertilization, though even the reactions of the enzymes in fertilized eggs do not reach a state of equilibrium. In eggs of Urechis and oyster, phosphorylase is the first enzyme to be activated following fertilization. In Urechis eggs, pyruvate kinase is activated after the instant increase in the phosphorylase activity upon fertilization, followed by phosphofructokinase activation. In oyster eggs, however, pyruvate kinase and phosphofructokinase seem to be stimulated simultaneously, subsequent to phosphorylase activation upon fertilization. The mechanism controlling phosphorylase and pyruvate kinase activity is unknown, but the phosphofructokinase activity in both species may be regulated by the intracellular concentration of adenine nucleotides, since the enzyme activity is enhanced along with a decline in the phosphate potential in the eggs of both Urechis and of oyster. 相似文献

The glucan specifity of the purified chloroplast and non-chloroplast forms of -1,4-glucan phosphorylase (EC 2.4.1.1) from spinach leaves (Steup and E. Latzko (1979), Planta 145, 69–75) was investigated. Phosphorolysis by the two enzymes was studied using a series of linear maltodextrins (degree of polymerization 11), amylose, amylopectin, starch, and glycogen as substrates. For all unbranched glucans (amylose and maltodextrins G5–G11), the chloroplast phosphorylase had a 7–10-fold higher apparent affinity (determined by initial velocity measurements) than the non-chloroplast phosphorylase form. For both enzyme forms, the minimum chain length required for a significant rate of phosphorolysis was five glucose units. Likewise, phosphorolysis ceased when the maltodextrin was converted to maltotetraose. With the chloroplast phosphorylase, maltotetraose was a linear competitive inhibitor with respect to amylose or starch (K
i-0.1 mmol 1-1); the inhibition by maltotetraose was less pronounced with the non-chloroplast enzyme. In contrast to unbranched glucans, the non-chloroplast phosphorylase exhibited a 40-, 50-, and 300-fold higher apparent affinity for amylopectin, starch, and glycogen, respectively, than the chloroplast enzyme. With respect to these kinetic properties the chloroplast phosphorylase resembled the type of maltodextrin phosphorylase.Abbreviations G1P

The activities throughout the cell cycle of thymidine kinase (EC 2.7.1.21), dihydrothymine dehydrogenase (EC 1.3.1.2), thymidine phosphorylase (EC 2.4.2.4) and dTMP phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.35) were measured in the Epstein-Barr virally transformed human B lymphocyte line LAZ-007. Cells were synchronised at different stages of the cell cycle using the technique of centrifugal elutriation. The degree of synchrony in each cycle-stage cell population was determined by flow microfluorimetric analysis of DNA content and by measurement of thymidine incorporation into DNA. The activity of the anabolic enzyme thymidine kinase was low in the G1 phase cells, but increased many-fold during the S and G2 phases, reaching a maximum after the peak of DNA synthesis, then decreasing in late G2 + M phase. By contrast, the specific activities of the enzymes involved in thymidine and thymidylate catabolism, dihydrothymine dehydrogenase, thymidine phosphorylase and dTMP phosphatase remained essentially constant throughout the cell cycle, indicating that the fate of thymidine at different stages of the cell cycle is governed primarily by regulation of the level of the anabolic enzyme thymidine kinase and not by regulation of the levels of thymidine catabolising enzymes. 相似文献

On the role of calcium as second messenger in liver for the hormonally induced activation of glycogen phosphorylase 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

We have studied the mode of action of three hormones (angiotensin, vasopressin and phenylephrine, an α-adrenergic agent) which promote liver glycogenolysis in a cyclic AMP-independent way, in comparison with that of glucagon, which is known to act essentially via cyclic AMP. The following observations were made using isolated rat hepatocytes: (a) In the normal Krebs-Henseleit bicarbonate medium, the hormones activated glycogen phosphorylase (EC 2.4.1.1) to about the same degree. In contrast to glucagon, the cyclic AMP-independent hormones did not activate either protein kinase (EC 2.7.1.37) or phosphorylase kinase (EC 2.7.1.38). (b) The absence of Ca2+ from the incubation medium prevented the activation of glycogen phosphorylase by the cyclic AMP-independent agents and slowed down that induced by glucagon. (c) The ionophore A 23187 produced the same degree of activation of glycogen phosphorylase, provided that Ca2+ was present in the incubation medium (d) Glucagon, cyclic AMP and three cyclic AMP-independent hormones caused an enhanced uptake of 45Ca; it was verified that concentrations of angiotensin and of vasopressin known to occur in haemorrhagic conditions were able to produce phosphorylase activation and stimulate 45Ca uptake. (e) Appropriate antagonists (i.e. phentolamine against phenylephrine and an angiotensin analogue against angiotensin) prevented both the enhanced 45Ca uptake and the phosphorylase activation.We interpret our data in favour of a role of calcium (1) as the second messenger in liver for the three cyclic AMP-independent glycogenolytic hormones and (2) as an additional messenger for glucagon which, via cyclic AMP, will make calcium available to the cytoplasm either from extracellular or from intracellular pools. The target enzyme for Ca2+ is most probably phosphorylase kinase. 相似文献

Summary The synthesis of the four enzymes of the deo operon in Escherichia coli is known from in vivo experiments to be subject to a double negative control, exerted by the products of the cytR and deoR genes.A DNA-directed in vitro protein synthesizing system makes the deo enzymes (exemplified by thymidine phosphorylase) in agreement with in vivo results. Enzyme synthesis is stimulated by cyclic AMP and repressed by the cytR and deoR gene products. Repression by the cytR repressor is reversed by cytidine or adenosine in the presence of cyclic AMP, while repression by the deoR repressor is reversed by deoxyribose-5-phosphate.Assays for the presence of the cytR and deoR repressors were established by use of S-30 extracts prepared from the regulatory mutants.Dissociation constants for repressor-operator binding as well as for repressor-inducer interactions have been estimated from the results.Abbreviations and Symbols

BackgroundMannoside phosphorylases are frequently found in bacteria and play an important role in carbohydrate processing. These enzymes catalyze the reversible conversion of β-1,2- or β-1,4-mannosides to mannose and mannose-1-phosphate in the presence of inorganic phosphate.MethodsThe biochemical parameters of this recombinantly expressed novel mannose phosphorylase were obtained. Furthermore purified reaction products were subjected to ESI- and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry and detailed NMR analysis to verify this novel type of β-1,3-mannose linkage.ResultsWe describe the first example of a phosphorylase specifically targeting β-1,3-mannoside linkages. In addition to mannose, this phosphorylase originating from the bacterium Zobellia galactanivorans could add β-1,3-linked mannose to various other monosaccharides and anomerically modified 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-glycosides (X-sugars).ConclusionsAn unique bacterial phosphorylase specifically targeting β-1,3-mannoside linkages was discovered.General significanceFunctional extension of glycoside hydrolase family 130. 相似文献

Rabbit muscle phosphorylase b (EC 2.4.1.1) is converted to a thio-analog of phosphorylase a by phosphorylase kinase, Mg2+ and adenosine 5′-O(3-thiotriphosphate)(ATPγS). Conversion proceeds at one-fifth the rate obtained with ATP though the extent of reaction and final level of activation of the enzyme are the same. However, the thiophosphorylase a produced is resistant to phosphorylase phosphatase and, therefore, behaves as a competitive inhibitor with a KI of 3 μM, similar to the KM obtained with normal phosphorylase a. ATPγS can also be utilized by protein kinase in the activation of phosphorylase kinase at a rate similar to that obtained with ATP. It is hydrolyzed at 5 to 10 times the normal rate by the sarcoplasmic reticulum ATPase. When added to a muscle glycogen-particulate complex in the presence of Ca2+ and Mg2+, ATPγS triggers an activation of phosphorylase with simultaneous inhibition of phosphorylase phosphatase as previously observed with ATP. 相似文献

Two well-established methods to prepare glycogen are available: (1) extraction from natural resources such as shellfish and animal tissues; (2) synthesis from glucose-1-phosphate using two enzymes, α-glucan phosphorylase (EC 2.4.1.1) and branching enzyme (EC 2.4.1.18). We have developed a novel enzymatic process for glycogen production, in which short-chain amylose is first prepared from starch or dextrin by using isoamylase (EC 3.2.1.68), and then branching enzyme and amylomaltase (EC 2.4.1.25) are added to synthesize glycogen. Our enzymatic process, using isoamylase, branching enzyme and amylomaltase, is currently the most efficient for glycogen production. Furthermore, the molecular weight of glycogen is controllable in a range of 3.0×106 to 3.0×107 by adjusting some parameters of the reaction. 相似文献

To find general metabolic profiles of purine ribo- and deoxyribonucleotides in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) plants, we looked at the in situ metabolic fate of various 14C-labelled precursors in disks from growing potato tubers. The activities of key enzymes in potato tuber extracts were also studied. Of the precursors for the intermediates in de novo purine biosynthesis, [14C]formate, [2-14C]glycine and [2-14C]5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxyamide ribonucleoside were metabolised to purine nucleotides and were incorporated into nucleic acids. The rates of uptake of purine ribo- and deoxyribonucleosides by the disks were in the following order: deoxyadenosine > adenosine > adenine > guanine > guanosine > deoxyguanosine > inosine > hypoxanthine > xanthine > xanthosine. The purine ribonucleosides, adenosine and guanosine, were salvaged exclusively to nucleotides, by adenosine kinase (EC 2.7.1.20) and inosine/guanosine kinase (EC 2.7.1.73) and non-specific nucleoside phosphotransferase (EC 2.7.1.77). Inosine was also salvaged by inosine/guanosine kinase, but to a lesser extent. In contrast, no xanthosine was salvaged. Deoxyadenosine and deoxyguanosine, was efficiently salvaged by deoxyadenosine kinase (EC 2.7.1.76) and deoxyguanosine kinase (EC 2.7.1.113) and/or non-specific nucleoside phosphotransferase (EC 2.7.1.77). Of the purine bases, adenine, guanine and hypoxanthine but not xanthine were salvaged for nucleotide synthesis. Since purine nucleoside phosphorylase (EC 2.4.2.1) activity was not detected, adenine phosphoribosyltransferase (EC 2.4.2.7) and hypoxanthine/guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (EC 2.4.2.8) seem to play the major role in salvage of adenine, guanine and hypoxanthine. Xanthine was catabolised by the oxidative purine degradation pathway via allantoin. Activity of the purine-metabolising enzymes observed in other organisms, such as purine nucleoside phosphorylase (EC 2.4.2.1), xanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (EC 2.4.2.22), adenine deaminase (EC 3.5.4.2), adenosine deaminase (EC 3.5.4.4) and guanine deaminase (EC 3.5.4.3), were not detected in potato tuber extracts. These results suggest that the major catabolic pathways of adenine and guanine nucleotides are AMP → IMP → inosine → hypoxanthine → xanthine and GMP → guanosine → xanthosine → xanthine pathways, respectively. Catabolites before xanthosine and xanthine can be utilised in salvage pathways for nucleotide biosynthesis. 相似文献

In skeletal muscles of the trout, a fish that intensively swims and is capable for sharp sprinting movements, an active form of ATP: phosphorylase b phosphotransferase (EC 2.7.1.38, glycogen phosphorylase kinase; GPK) and partially active 1,4-D-glucan:orthophosphate glucosyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.1, glycogen phosphorylase; GP) are revealed in the state of a relative rest. The isolated GP ab has a higher affinity to substrates (glucose-1-phosphate and glycogen) than GP b and is able to split glycogen without pre-activation with AMP or GPK. The presence of the activated forms of GPK and GP in resting muscles of the trout provides an opportunity for the very fast Ca2+-activation of glycogenolysis, coupled with activation of muscle contraction. This seems to be a biochemical mechanism of adaptation for the energy supply of intense muscle activity in this fish species inhabiting rapid cataracted rivers. 相似文献

[3H]phenoxybenzamine of high specific activity (5.3 Ci/mmol) was synthesized and its binding to isolated, viable rat liver cells was studied. Phentolamine suppressible binding of [3H]phenoxybenzamine was irreversible and saturable (EC50: 10 nM, bmax: 200 fmol/mg wet cell weight). Competition-inhibition studies showed structural and stereoselectivity compatible with α-receptors. The IC50 of unlabelled phenoxybenzamine to reduce specific binding (9 nM) or to block adrenaline-induced phosphorylase activation in the same cells (2 nM) was similar, whereas the IC50 of agonists to suppress binding was higher than their EC50's for phosphorylase activation. The results represent the first example of labelling α-adrenoceptors in intact liver cells. The sites labelled by [3H]phenoxybenzamine mediate the block of phosphorylase activation by α-adrenoceptor antagonists. However, the relationship of these sites to receptors that mediate responses to physiological, low concentrations of catecholamines remains to be clarified. 相似文献

During the preparation of spheroplasts, adenine phosphoribosyltransferase (EC 2.4.2.7) and hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (EC 2.4.2.8) were released in parallel with cytidine deaminase (EC 3.5.4.5) and uridine phosphorylase (EC 2.4.2.3), which, on other evidence, are considered to be located intracellularly. The two phosphoribosyltransferases and uridine phosphorylase were not significantly associated with purified membrane fractions as was purine nucleoside phosphorylase (EC 2.4.2.1). The effects of the poorly permeable enzyme-inactivating reagents, 4-diazoniumbenzenesulphonate, 7-diazonium-1,3-naphthalene-disulphonate and 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulphonate, on Escherichia coli indicate that all the above-mentioned enzymes and also the xanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase [Miller, Ramsey, Krenitsky & Elion (1972) Biochemistry 11, 4723--4731] are located intracellularly. 相似文献

Rabbit muscle glycogen phosphorylase (EC 2.4.1.1) was reconstituted with pyridoxal 5′-methylenephosphonate with ca. 25% restoration of enzymatic activity. The modified enzyme has very similar chemical and physical properties to native phosphorylase including UV and fluorescence spectra, quaternary structure, high energy of activation in the reconstitution reaction, optimum pH and susceptibility to phosphorylase kinase in the b to a conversion. While Vmax is reduced to ca. one-fifth, affinities for the substrate glucose 1-P and the effector AMP are increased. This is the first analog of pyridoxal 5′-P modified in the 5′-position found to restore catalytic activity to apophosphorylase. 相似文献
