The purification and properties of myo-inositol monophosphatase from bovine brain.

ABSTRACT: 1. An inositol monophosphatase was purified to homogeneity from bovine brain. 2. The enzyme is a dimer of subunit Mr 29,000. 3. The enzyme hydrolyses both enantiomers of myo-inositol 1-phosphate and both enantiomers of myo-inositol 4-phosphate, but has no activity towards inositol bisphosphates, inositol trisphosphates or inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate. 4. Several non-inositol-containing monophosphates are also substrates. 5. The enzyme requires Mg2+ for activity, and Zn2+ supports activity to a small extent. 6. Other bivalent cations (including Zn2+) are inhibitors, competitive with Mg2+. 7. Phosphate, but not inositol, is an inhibitor competitive with substrate. 8. Li+ inhibits hydrolysis of inositol 1-phosphate and inositol 4-phosphate uncompetitively with different apparent Ki values (1.0 mM and 0.26 mM respectively).

Purification and properties of myo-inositol-1-phosphatase from bovine brain.

Project description:myo-Inositol-1-phosphatase from bovine brain was purified over 2000-fold. The native enzyme has a Mr of 59,000, and on SDS/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis the subunit Mr was 31,000. Thus the native enzyme is a dimer of two apparently identical subunits. The enzyme, purified to a specific activity of more than 300 units/mg of protein (1 unit of enzyme activity corresponds to the release of 1 mumol of Pi/h at 37 degrees C), catalysed the hydrolysis of a variety of phosphorylated compounds, the best one, in terms of V/Km, being D-myo-inositol 1-phosphate. Kinetic constants of compounds tested, including both isomers of glycerophosphate and two deoxy forms of beta-glycerophosphate, were measured. They show the importance of the two hydroxyl groups which are adjacent to the phosphate in myo-inositol 1-phosphate. With a wide variety of substrates Li+ was found to be an uncompetitive inhibitor whose Ki varied with substrate structure.

Multibody cofactor and substrate molecular recognition in the myo-inositol monophosphatase enzyme.

Project description:Molecular recognition is rarely a two-body protein-ligand problem, as it often involves the dynamic interplay of multiple molecules that together control the binding process. Myo-inositol monophosphatase (IMPase), a drug target for bipolar disorder, depends on 3 Mg(2+) ions as cofactor for its catalytic activity. Although the crystallographic pose of the pre-catalytic complex is well characterized, the binding process by which substrate, cofactor and protein cooperate is essentially unknown. Here, we have characterized cofactor and substrate cooperative binding by means of large-scale molecular dynamics. Our study showed the first and second Mg(2+) ions identify the binding pocket with fast kinetics whereas the third ion presents a much higher energy barrier. Substrate binding can occur in cooperation with cofactor, or alone to a binary or ternary cofactor-IMPase complex, although the last scenario occurs several orders of magnitude faster. Our atomic description of the three-body mechanism offers a particularly challenging example of pathway reconstruction, and may prove particularly useful in realistic contexts where water, ions, cofactors or other entities cooperate and modulate the binding process.

Synaptic polarity depends on phosphatidylinositol signaling regulated by myo-inositol monophosphatase in Caenorhabditis elegans.

Project description:Although neurons are highly polarized, how neuronal polarity is generated remains poorly understood. An evolutionarily conserved inositol-producing enzyme myo-inositol monophosphatase (IMPase) is essential for polarized localization of synaptic molecules in Caenorhabditis elegans and can be inhibited by lithium, a drug for bipolar disorder. The synaptic defect of IMPase mutants causes defects in sensory behaviors including thermotaxis. Here we show that the abnormalities of IMPase mutants can be suppressed by mutations in two enzymes, phospholipase C? or synaptojanin, which presumably reduce the level of membrane phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP(2)). We also found that mutations in phospholipase C? conferred resistance to lithium treatment. Our results suggest that reduction of PIP(2) on plasma membrane is a major cause of abnormal synaptic polarity in IMPase mutants and provide the first in vivo evidence that lithium impairs neuronal PIP(2) synthesis through inhibition of IMPase. We propose that the PIP(2) signaling regulated by IMPase plays a novel and fundamental role in the synaptic polarity.

A repeat length variation in myo-inositol monophosphatase gene contributes to seed size trait in chickpea.

Project description:Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is the third most important food legume crop. Seed size is the most economically important trait for chickpea. To understand the genetic regulation of seed size in chickpea, the present study established a three-way association of CT repeat length variation of a simple sequence repeat (SSR) in myo-inositol monophosphatase gene (CaIMP) with seed weight and phytic acid content by large scale validation and genotyping in a set of genetically diverse germplasm accessions and two reciprocal intra-specific mapping populations. Germplasms and mapping individuals with CT repeat-length expansion in the 5' untranslated region of CaIMP exhibited a pronounced increase in CaIMP protein level, enzymatic activity, seed-phytate content and seed weight. A chickpea transient expression system demonstrated this repeat-length variation influenced the translation of CaIMP mRNA, apparently by facilitating translation initiation. Our analyses proposed that the SSR marker derived from 5' UTR of a CaIMP gene is a promising candidate for selection of seed size/weight for agronomic trait improvement of chickpea.

Purification and properties of inositol-1,4-bisphosphatase from bovine brain.

Project description:Inositol-1,4-bisphosphatase has been purified 13,000-fold from bovine brain supernatant. The enzyme is monomeric, with an apparent subunit Mr of 40,000. Maximal hydrolytic rates were observed in Tris buffer, pH 7.8, in the presence of 9 mM-Mg2+. The enzyme acted as a 1-phosphatase, hydrolysing both inositol 1,4-bisphosphate [Ins(1,4)P2] (Km 0.04 mM) and inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate [Ins(1,3,4)P3] (Km 0.5 mM) to inositol 4-phosphate and inositol 3,4-bisphosphate respectively. Li+ inhibited the hydrolysis of both substrates in an uncompetitive manner, with apparent Ki values of 9.63 mM and 0.46 mM for Ins(1,4)P2 and Ins(1,3,4)P3 respectively.

Purification, crystallization and preliminary crystallographic analysis of mouse myo-inositol oxygenase.

Project description:Myo-inositol oxygenase (MIOX) catalyzes the novel oxidative cleavage of myo-inositol (MI) and its epimer D-chiro inositol (DCI) to D-glucuronate. MIOX utilizes an Fe(II)/Fe(III) binuclear iron centre for the dioxygen-dependent cleavage of the C1-C6 bond in MI. Despite its key role in inositol metabolism, the structural basis of its unique four-electron oxidation mechanism and its substrate specificity remain unknown. In order to answer these questions and to facilitate the use of this key enzyme for the development of new therapeutic strategies for diabetes, the mouse enzyme has been cloned, expressed in Escherichia coli, purified and crystallized from 4.4 M sodium formate. The crystals belong to space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 44.87, b = 77.26, c = 84.84 angstroms, and diffract to 2.8 angstroms resolution.

Beryllium competitively inhibits brain myo-inositol monophosphatase, but unlike lithium does not enhance agonist-induced inositol phosphate accumulation.

Project description:Despite limiting side-effects, lithium is the drug of choice for the treatment of bipolar depression. Its action may be due, in part, to its ability to dampen phosphatidylinositol turnover by inhibiting myo-inositol monophosphatase. Beryllium has been identified as a potent inhibitor of partially purified myo-inositol monophosphatase isolated from rat brain (Ki = 150 nM), bovine brain (Ki = 35 nM), and from the human neuroblastoma cell line SK-N-SH (Ki = 85 nM). It is over three orders of magnitude more potent than LiCl (Ki = 0.5-1.2 mM). Kinetic analysis reveals that beryllium is a competitive inhibitor of myo-inositol monophosphatase, in contrast with lithium which is an uncompetitive inhibitor. Inhibition of exogenous [3H]inositol phosphate hydrolysis by beryllium (IC50 = 250-300 nM) was observed to the same maximal extent as that seen with lithium in permeabilized SK-N-SH cells, reflecting inhibition of cellular myo-inositol monophosphatase. However, in contrast with that observed with lithium, agonist-induced accumulation of inositol phosphate was not observed with beryllium in permeabilized and non-permeabilized SK-N-SH cells and in rat brain slices. Similar results were obtained in permeabilized SK-N-SH cells when GTP-gamma-S was used as an alternative stimulator of inositol phosphate accumulation. The disparity in the actions of beryllium and lithium suggest that either (1) selective inhibition of myo-inositol monophosphatase does not completely explain the action of lithium on the phosphatidylinositol cycle, or (2) that uncompetitive inhibition of myo-inositol monophosphatase is a necessary requirement to observe functional lithium mimetic activity.

A monoclonal antibody to bovine brain inositol monophosphatase. Immunoaffinity purification of the brain and kidney enzymes and evidence for their structural identity.

Project description:A monoclonal IgG2b(K) antibody, G-2A4, has been generated against bovine brain myo-inositol monophosphatase (EC 3.1.3.25). The identity of the antigen recognized by the antibody was established by using e.l.i.s.a. and Western blotting procedures, and by immunoprecipitation of enzyme activity from crude brain supernatant. In addition, the hydrolysis of Ins1P by crude brain extract was inhibited by up to 83% by the pure antibody. Under identical conditions, the hydrolysis of Ins(1,4)P2 was unaffected. An immunoadsorbent column containing monoclonal antibody G-2A4 covalently attached to CNBr-activated Sepharose 4B has been used for rapid purification of the brain enzyme. Elution conditions have been optimized to allow isolation of the enzyme in high yield (54%) with full retention of column-binding capacity. The enzyme was electrophoretically homogeneous, Mr 30,000 and of higher specific activity than that purified conventionally. Chromatography of the pure enzyme on high resolution ion-exchange columns revealed some charge heterogeneity, possibly indicative of some type of post-translational modification. The immunoadsorbent column has also been used to purify the bovine kidney cortex enzyme to homogeneity. Partial proteolytic fragmentation patterns of the brain and kidney enzymes using endoprotease glu-C were identical, suggesting that they are almost certainly products of the same gene.
