Authors:Iu R Boretski?  Iu S Skoblov  O M Khodova  P M Rabinovich
Abstract:Highly purified GTP-cyclohydrolase was obtained by fractionation of cell extracts with ammonium sulfate, ion-exchange and hydrophobic chromatography. The N-terminal amino acid sequence and amino acid composition of the protein were determined. According to SDS-PAGE data, the molecular weight of the enzyme is 45 kDa. The active enzyme has several isoforms separable by native electrophoresis. The maximal enzyme activity is determined at 1.5 mM Mn2+; 70% of enzymatic activity is detected with Mg2+. The enzyme is inhibited by heavy metal ions and chelators and is inactive in the absence of thiol-reducing agents. The enzyme activity is detected in a broad range of pH with a maximum at pH 8.2. The pyrimidine product of the GTP-cyclohydrolase reaction. 2.5-diamino-6-hydroxy-4-ribosylaminopyrimidine-5'-phosphate was purified and identified. Another product of this reaction is pyrophosphate.
