1. Pyruvate kinase, phosphofructokinase, and glucophosphate isomerase activities were measured in liver, heart and gastrocnemius of Wistar and Sprague-Dawley rats. 2. Enzyme activities were significantly lower in tissues of Wistar rats except for pyruvate kinase in gastrocnemius. 3. Sensitivities of pyruvate kinase and phosphofructokinase to inhibition by alanine and citrate differed in these two strains except for pyruvate kinase in gastrocnemius. 4. Phosphofructokinase sensitivity to citrate was greater in the three Wistar tissues. 5. Activities of liver enzymes were more responsive to a high sucrose diet in Wistar rats. 6. Heart pyruvate kinase and phosphofructokinase exhibited modest increases in activity with a high sucrose diet.  相似文献

Conditions are described for the preparation of permeabilized cells of Candida albicans. This method has been used for the in situ assay of enzymes in both yeast cells and germ-tube forming cells. A mixture of toluene/ethanol/Triton X-100 (1:4:0.2, by vol.) at 15% (v/v) and 8% (v/v) was optimal for the in situ assay of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase in yeast and germ-tube forming cells, respectively. The concentration of toluene/ethanol/Triton X-100 required for optimal in situ activity of other enzymes was influenced by the cellular location of the enzyme, growth phase and morphology. The membrane-bound enzymes (chitin synthase, glucan synthase, ATPase), cytosolic enzymes (glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, isocitrate dehydrogenase, pyruvate kinase, phosphofructokinase, alkaline phosphatase, glucosamine-6-phosphate deaminase and N-acetylglucosamine kinase) and wall enzymes (beta-glucosidase and acid phosphatase) were measured and compared to the activity obtained in cell extracts. The pattern of enzyme induction and the properties of the allosteric enzymes phosphofructokinase and pyruvate kinase were measured in situ. Pyruvate kinase in situ was homotropic for phosphoenolpyruvate with a Hill coefficient of 1.9 and a S0.5 of 0.6 mM, whereas in cell extracts, it had a Hill coefficient of 1.9 and a S0.5 of 1.0 mM. The Km for ATP was 1.6 mM in cell extracts and 1.8 mM in permeabilized cells. In situ phosphofructokinase was homotropic for fructose 6-phosphate (S0.5 of 2.3 mM, Hill coefficient of 4.0). The kinetic properties of pyruvate kinase and phosphofructokinase measured in situ or in vitro were similar for both yeast cells and germ-tube forming cells.  相似文献

Effects of glucose concentration and anoxia upon the metabolite concentrations and rates of glycolysis and respiration have been investigated in the perfused liver of the fetal guinea pig. In most cases the metabolite concentrations in the perfused liver were similar to those observed in vivo. Between 50 days and term there was a fall in the respiratory rate and in the concentration of ATP and fructose 1,6-diphosphate and an increase in the concentration of glutamate, glycogen and glucose. Reducing the medium glucose concentration from 10 mM to 1 mM or 0.1 mM depressed lactate production and the concentration of most of the phosphorylated intermediates (except 6-phosphogluconate) in the liver of the 50-day fetus. This indicates a fall in glycolytic rate which is not in accord with the known kinetic properties of hexokinase in the fetal liver. Anoxia increased lactate production by, and the concentrations of, the hexose phosphates ADP and AMP in the 50-day to term fetal liver, while the concentration of ribulose 5-phosphate, ATP and some triose phosphates fell. These results are consistent with an activation of glycolysis, particularly at phosphofructokinase and of a reduction in pentose phosphate pathway activity, particularly at 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase. The calculated cytosolic NAD+/NADH ratio for the perfused liver was similar to that measured in vivo and evidence is presented to suggest that the dihydroxyacetone phosphate/glycerol 3-phosphate ratio gives a better indication of cytosolic redox than the lactate/pyruvate ratio. The present observations indicate that phosphofructokinase hexokinase and possibly pyruvate kinase control the glycolytic rate and that glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase is at equilibrium in the perfused liver of the fetal guinea pig.  相似文献

The activities of phosphofructokinase, pyruvate kinase and pyruvate dehydrogenase were examined in liver as a function of age in Swiss albino mice. The hepatic activity of phosphofructokinase and total pyruvate dehydrogenase peaked in mice between 8 and 12 weeks of age and then decreased to a value that remained stable in mature animals older than 24 weeks of age. Yet, the activity of pyruvate kinase and pyruvate dehydrogenase in the active form in liver remained unchanged in mice up to 12 weeks of age. As mice matured, a progressive increase in the activity of both pyruvate kinase and the active form of pyruvate dehydrogenase in liver was observed while phosphofructokinase was unaltered. The pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, both total activity and the proportion of the enzyme in the active form, in the epididymal fat pad of the mouse showed no consistent age trend. The observed increase in the activity of both pyruvate kinase and the active form of pyruvate dehydrogenase should provide an augmented capacity for the generation of acetyl-CoA units for de novo fatty acid synthesis in livers of mature mice.  相似文献

Selected glycolytic enzymes (including phosphoglucose isomerase, aldolase, glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase, enolase, pyruvate kinase and lactate dehydrogenase), as well as glycogen phosphorylase, creatine kinase, and adenylate kinase, bound to phosphofructokinase immobilized on an agarose gel. The affinity of phosphofructokinase to these various proteins differed, with phosphorylase exhibiting the strongest binding. Binding was reversed either by: (1) elution with high-ionic-strength buffer (0.4 M KCl); (2) the addition of a 5-10 mM concentration of ATP; or (3) high concentrations of fructose 6-phosphate (5 mM).  相似文献

Glucagon stimulates gluconeogenesis in part by decreasing the rate of phosphoenolpyruvate disposal by pyruvate kinase. Glucagon, via cyclic AMP (cAMP) and the cAMP-dependent protein kinase, enhances phosphorylation of pyruvate kinase, phosphofructokinase, and fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase. Phosphorylation of pyruvate kinase results in enzyme inhibition and decreased recycling of phosphoenolpyruvate to pyruvate and enhanced glucose synthesis. Although phosphorylation of 6-phosphofructo 1-kinase and fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase is catalyzed in vitro by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase, the role of phosphorylation in regulating the activity of and flux through these enzymes in intact cells is uncertain. Glucagon regulation of these two enzyme activities is brought about primarily by changes in the level of a novel sugar diphosphate, fructose 2,6-bisphosphate. This compound is an activator of phosphofructokinase and an inhibitor of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase; it also potentiates the effect of AMP on both enzymes. Glucagon addition to isolated liver systems results in a greater than 90% decrease in the level of this compound. This effect explains in large part the effect of glucagon to enhance flux through fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase and to suppress flux through phosphofructokinase. The discovery of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate has greatly furthered our understanding of regulation at the fructose 6-phosphate/fructose 1,6-bisphosphate substrate cycle.  相似文献

The influence of clofibrate on the glycolytic pathway in liver was studied. The changes in the activity of glucokinase and hexokinase were not significant. A reduction of phosphofructokinase (p less than 0.05) and pyruvate kinase activity was found (p less than 0.0005) during clofibrate feeding. An in vitro inhibition of these enzymes could not be demonstrated by clofibrate up to a concentration of 2.5 mM. Crossover plots of glycolytic intermediates indicate that the reduced pyruvate kinase activity may influence the glycolytic pathway in vivo. Clofibrate feeding induces a lower ATP:ADP ratio, a lower adenylate energy charge and elevates AMP levels in rat liver. This may possibly stimulate the hepatic glycogenolysis and the glucose utilisation by this organ.  相似文献

We have cloned a full-length cDNA for rat-liver-type phosphofructokinase. The similarities of the rat liver-type phosphofructokinase mRNA to the human and mouse counterparts were 94% and 99% in their amino acid sequences and 88% and 94% in the nucleotide sequences of their coding regions, respectively. Rat liver-type phosphofructokinase mRNA was expressed in all tissues examined, but its level was regulated tissue-specifically. The nutritional and hormonal regulations of the mRNA in the liver were examined in comparison with those of two other key glycolytic enzymes, glucokinase and L-type pyruvate kinase. The level of liver-type phosphofructokinase mRNA was essentially unchanged by starvation (72 h) or diabetes. The mRNA level also did not change significantly on refeeding starved rats on a high carbohydrate diet, or treating diabetic ones with insulin. These results suggested that rat liver-type phosphofructokinase mRNA in the liver was not under control of diet or insulin, in contrast to glucokinase and L-type pyruvate kinase.  相似文献

In acute CCL4 intoxication of rats significantly increased activities of hepatic low-Km hexokinases, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, phosphofructokinase, aldolase A and pyruvate kinase M2 with concurrently decreased activities of glucokinase, glucose-6-phosphatase, fructose-1,6-diphosphatase, aldolase B and pyruvate kinase L were observed. The resulting enzyme pattern was apparently different from that in dietary induction. Principal component analysis revealed that the degree of enzyme deviation in the injured liver was much greater than that in the regenerating liver after partial hepatectomy and was closer to that in fetal liver or hepatoma tissue.  相似文献

The dynamic pattern of an open reconstituted in-vitro enzyme system containing phosphofructokinase, pyruvate kinase and adenylate kinase has been investigated. The approach is experimentally based on a stirred flow-through reactor. Stationary concentrations of phosphofructokinase and pyruvate kinase are maintained by entrapment in polyacrylamide gel particles. The results fit to a theoretical model based on the initial kinetic responses of the enzymes involved. An S-shaped steady state input characteristic for fructose 6-phosphate has been experimentally obtained.  相似文献

A reversible interconversion of two kinetically distinct forms of hepatic pyruvate kinase regulated by glucagon and insulin is demonstrated in the perfused rat liver. The regulation does not involve the total enzyme content of the liver, but rather results in a modulation of the substrate dependence. The forms of pyruvate kinase in liver homogenates are distinguished by measurements of the ratio of the enzyme activity at a subsaturating concentration of P-enolpyruvate (1.3 mM) to the activity at a saturating concentration of this substrate (6.6 mM). A low ratio form of pyruvate kinase (ratio between 0.1 and 0.2) is obtained from livers perfused with 10(-7) M glucagon or 0.1 mM adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cyclic AMP). A high ratio form of the enzyme is obtained from livers perfused with no hormone (ratio = 0.35 to 0.45). The regulation of pyruvate kinase by glucagon and cyclic AMP occurs within 2 min following the hormone addition to the liver. Insulin (22 milliunits/ml) counteracts the inhibition of pyruvate kinase caused by 5 X 10(-11) M glucagon, but has only a slight influence on the enzyme properties in the absence of the hyperglycemic hormone. The low ratio form of pyruvate kinase obtained from livers perfused with glucagon or cyclic AMP is unstable in liver extracts and will revert to a high ratio form within 10 min at 37 degrees or within a few hours at 0 degrees. Pyruvate kinase is quantitatively precipitated from liver supernatants with 2.5 M ammonium sulfate. This precipitation stabilizes the enzyme and preserves the kinetically distinguishable forms. The kinetic properties of the two forms of rat hepatic pyruvate kinase are examined using ammonium sulfate precipitates from the perfused rat liver. At pH 7.5 the high ratio form of the enzyme has [S]0.5 = 1.6 +/- 0.2 mM P-enolpyruvate (n = 8). The low ratio form of enzyme from livers perfused with glucagon or cyclic AMP has [S]0.5 = 2.5 +/- 0.4 mM P-enolpyruvate (n = 8). The modification of pyruvate kinase induced by glucagon does not alter the dependence of the enzyme activity on ADP (Km is approximately 0.5 mM ADP for both forms of the enzyme). Both forms are allosterically modulated by fructose 1,6-bisphosphate, L-alanine, and ATP. The changes in the kinetic properties of hepatic pyruvate kinase which follow treating the perfused rat liver with glucagon or cyclic AMP are consistent with the changes observed in the enzyme properties upon phosphorylation in vitro by a clyclic AMP-stimulated protein kinase (Ljungstr?m, O., Hjelmquist, G. and Engstr?m, L. (1974) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 358, 289--298). However, other factors also influence the enzyme activity in a similar manner and it remains to be demonstrated that the regulation of hepatic pyruvate kinase by glucagon and cyclic AMP in vivo involes a phosphorylation.  相似文献

Summary A biphasic dependence of the exponential growth rate on the glucose concentration of the medium was observed in batch culture experiments for a strain of S. cerevisiae and one of its petit mutants. The data can be fitted to an equation of the Michaelis-Menten type with two sets of values of the growth parameters; the switch-over occurs at a glucose concentration of 4 mM. Another petit mutant did not show the biphasic character.Regulation of the energy metabolism in relation to the cell cycle is discussed. It is suggested that the observed shift in the growth parameters may be due to a change in the control point of glycolysis from phosphofructokinase to pyruvate kinase at higher glucose concentrations. This could reduce the duration of the G1 phase by permitting a faster synthesis of reserve carbohydrates required as intracellular energy reservoirs for DNA synthesis.Nonstandard Abbreviations Used F6P fructose-6-phosphate - FDP fructose-1,6-diphosphate - G1P glucose-6-phosphate - PEP Phosphoenolpyruvate - PYR pyruvate Enzymes PFK phosphofructokinase (EC 2.7.1.11) - PK phosphoenolpyruvate kinase (EC 2.7.1.40)  相似文献

ATP-depleted human red cells have been incubated in a glucose-containing medium with [32P]orthophosphate in the presence and in the absence of cyclic 3',5'-AMP and dibutyril cyclic 3',5'-AMP. Spectrin, pyruvate kinase, phosphofructokinase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and hemoglobin A1 have been purified and analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Protein-bound radioactivity has been measured from the sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gels and the trichloroacetic acid-precipitated proteins. In the cytosol, the most intense phosphorylation was found for pyruvate kinase whose, in the presence of cyclic AMP, specific radioactivity was comparable to that of the membrane protein and spectrin. In the absence of cyclic nucleotides it was five times less phosphorylated. Phosphofructokinase was only phosphorylated when the red cells were incubated with cyclic nucleotides; the extent of phosphorylation was four times less than for pyruvate kinase. Hemoglobin, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and a contaminant protein copurified with phosphofructokinase were not phosphorylated: the 'background' of the radioactivity found for these proteins was 100 times less than for pyruvate kinase and spectrin, and 20 times less than for phosphofructokinase (+cyclic AMP).  相似文献

Summary The activities of hexokinase (ATP:hexose-6-phosphate transferase, E.C. 2.7.1.1), phosphofructokinase (ATP: fructose-6-phosphate 1-phosphotransferase, E. C. 2.7.1.11) and pyruvate kinase (ATP: pyruvate transferase, E.C. 2.7.1.40), and their kinetic behaviour in two morphological forms of Trypanosoma cruzi (epimastigotes and metacyclic trypomastigotes) have been studied. The kinetic responses of the three enzymes to their respective substrates were normalized to hyperbolic forms on a velocity versus substrate concentration plots. Hexokinase and phosphofructokinase showed a higher activity in epimastigotes than in metacyclics, whereas pyruvate kinase had similar activity in both forms of the parasite. The specific activity of hexokinase from epimastigotes was 102.00 mUnits/mg of protein and the apparent Km value for glucose was 35.4 M. Metacyclic forms showed a specific activity of 55.25 mUnits/mg and a Km value of 46.3 M. The kinetic parameters (specific activity and Km for fructose 6-phosphate) of phosphofructokinase for epimastigotes were 42.60 mUnits/mg and 0.31 mM and for metacyclics 13.97 mUnits/mg and 0.16 mM, respectively. On the contrary, pyruvate kinase in both forms of T. cruzi did not show significant differences in its kinetic parameters. The specific activity in epimastigotes was 37.00 mUnits/mg and the Km for phosphoenolpyruvate was 0.47 mM, whereas in metacyclics these values were 42.94 mUnits/mg and 0.46 mM, respectively. The results presented in this work, clearly demonstrate a quantitative change in the glycolytic pathway of both culture forms of T. cruzi.Abbreviations NNN Novy-Nicolle-McNeal medium - Eagle's MEM Eagle's Minimal Essential Medium with Earle's salts - IFCS heat Inactivated Fetal Calf Serum 56°C, 30 min) - Tris tris(hydroxymethyl) aminomethane - EDTA Ethylenediaminetetraacetic Acid  相似文献

Inhibition of gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis by 2,5-anhydro-D-mannitol   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
2,5-Anhydro-D-mannitol (100 to 200 mg/kg) decreased blood glucose by 17 to 58% in fasting mice, rats, streptozotocin-diabetic mice, and genetically diabetic db/db mice. Serum lactate in rats was elevated 56% by 2,5-anhydro-D-mannitol, but this could be prevented by dichloroacetate (200 mg/kg) or thiamin (200 mg/kg). In hepatocytes from fasted rats, 1 mM 2,5-anhydro-D-mannitol inhibited gluconeogenesis from a mixture of alanine, lactate, and pyruvate. It also inhibited glucose production and stimulated lactate formation from glycerol or dihydroxyacetone. Glycogenolysis in hepatocytes from fed rats was markedly inhibited by 1 mM 2,5-anhydro-D-mannitol both in the presence or absence of 1 microM glucagon. 2,5-Anhydro-D-mannitol can be phosphorylated by fructokinase or hexokinase to the 1-phosphate and then by phosphofructokinase to the 1,6-bisphosphate. Rat liver glycogen phosphorylase was inhibited by 2,5-anhydro-D-mannitol 1-phosphate (apparent Ki = 0.66 +/- 0.09 mM) but was little affected by 2,5-anhydro-D-mannitol 1,6-bisphosphate. Rat liver phosphoglucomutase was inhibited by 2,5-anhydro-D-mannitol 1-phosphate (apparent Ki = 2.8 +/- 0.2 mM), whereas 2,5-anhydro-D-mannitol 1,6-bisphosphate served as an alternative activator (apparent K alpha = 7.0 +/- 0.5 microM). Rabbit liver pyruvate kinase was activated by 2,5-anhydro-D-mannitol 1,6-bisphosphate (apparent K alpha = 9.5 +/- 0.9 microM), whereas rabbit liver fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase was inhibited by 2,5-anhydro-D-mannitol 1,6-bisphosphate (apparent Ki = 3.6 +/- 0.3 microM). The phosphate esters of 2,5-anhydro-D-mannitol would, therefore, be expected to inhibit glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis and stimulate glycolysis in liver.  相似文献

The dynamic properties of a series of in vitro reaction systems with increasing complexity and containing phosphofructokinase as central enzyme have been investigated. An experimental strategy and a principal mathematical treatment was elaborated to search for the minimum requirements with respect to the enzyme composition of a reaction system for generating limit cycle behaviour. As a criterion, such models have been developed which permit experimental realization by application of a specially designed flow-through equipment. In addition to phosphofructokinase, the following enzymes have been stepwise included into the reaction systems composing the Models 1 through 6: pyruvate kinase, adenylate kinase, hexokinase, and glucose 6-phosphate isomerase. It turned out that only a minimum dynamic system containing phosphofructokinase and pyruvate kinase as well as excesses of adenylate kinase and glucose 6-phosphate isomerase for maintaining equilibrium conditions between the respective reacting species, acquires the property of limit cycle behaviour and, hence, to generate sustained self-oscillations. The approach permits to compute the region of the experimentally variable parameters (influx rates of fructose 6-phosphate and ATP, maximum rate of pyruvate kianse) for which self-oscillatory behaviour can be predicted.  相似文献

Following endotoxin administration to fasted rats, the liver fructose 2,6-bisphosphate level is significantly increased within 1 hr, is elevated 2.3-fold by 3 hrs, and remains elevated 2 to 3-fold for at least 24 hrs. This increase in the potent allosteric activator of phosphofructokinase occurs when there is no change in the liver Glc 6-P, glycogen or cAMP concentrations, or in the activities of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase or pyruvate kinase. The increase in fructose 2,6-bisphosphate concentration accounts for the increased phosphofructokinase activity previously observed in hepatocytes isolated 18 hours following endotoxin administration to rats (1). By stimulating the phosphofructokinase/Fru 1,6-bisphosphate cycle in the direction of glycolysis, fructose 2,6-bisphosphate is likely the factor responsible for decreased gluconeogenesis in endotoxemia.  相似文献

The kinetic properties of an open reconstituted enzyme system are investigated with the aim of demonstrating experimentally hysteretic transitions between alternate stationary states. The approach is based on a stirred flow-through reactor containing phosphofructokinase and pyruvate kinase entrapped in polyacrylamide gel. Through the reactor is pumped a solution containing fructose 6-phosphate, ATP, and phosphoenol pyruvate as well as adenylate kinase and glucose-6-phosphate isomerase. The latter two enzymes are in excess in respect to phosphofructokinase and pyruvate kinase. According to theoretical predictions the existence of multiple stationary states could be shown experimentally within precisely definable parameters. Switches between alternate stationary states have been caused by perturbations of flow rates and of reactant concentrations.  相似文献

1. Comparison of the maximum activities of pyruvate kinase with those of phosphofructokinase in a large number of muscles from invertebrates and vertebrates indicates that, in general, in any individual muscle, the activity of pyruvate kinase is only severalfold higher than that of phosphofructokinase. This is consistent with the suggestion, based on mass-action ratio data, that the pyruvate kinase reaction is non-equilibrium in muscle. However, the range of activities of pyruvate kinase in these muscles is considerably larger than that of phosphofructokinase. This difference almost disappears if the enzyme activities from muscles that are known to possess an anaerobic ;succinate pathway' are excluded. It is suggested that, in these muscles, phosphofructokinase provides glycolytic residues for both pyruvate kinase (i.e. glycolysis) and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (i.e. the succinate pathway). This is supported by a negative correlation between the activity ratio, pyruvate kinase/phosphofructokinase, and the activities of nucleoside diphosphokinase in these muscles, since high activities of nucleoside diphosphokinase are considered to indicate the presence of the succinate pathway. 2. The effect of fructose bisphosphate on the activities of pyruvate kinase from many different muscles was studied. The stimulatory effect of fructose bisphosphate appears to be lost whenever an efficient system for supply of oxygen to the muscles is developed (e.g. insects, squids, birds and mammals). This suggests that activation of pyruvate kinase is important in the co-ordinated regulation of glycolysis in anaerobic or hypoxic conditions, when the change in glycolytic flux during the transition from rest to activity needs to be large in order to provide sufficient energy for the contractile activity. However, lack of this effect in the anaerobic muscles of the birds and mammals suggests that another metabolic control may exist for avian and mammalian pyruvate kinase in these muscles.  相似文献
