Regulation of skeletal-muscle AMP deaminase. Evidence for a highly pH-dependent inhibition by ATP of the homogeneous derivative of the rabbit enzyme yielded by limited proteolysis.

ABSTRACT: Limited proteolysis of rabbit skeletal-muscle AMP deaminase (AMP aminohydrolase, EC 3.5.4.6) with trypsin results in conversion of the enzyme into a species which over the pH range 6.5-7.1 exhibits hyperbolic kinetics at low K+ concentration even in the absence of ADP, but shows a 20% decrease in activity at saturating substrate concentration. Analysis by sedimentation-equilibrium techniques reveals the proteolysed enzyme to be homogeneous and to have a molecular mass of 222,000 Da, indicative of a trimeric structure with a subunit molecular mass of 72,000 Da, in contrast with the tetrameric structure of the native enzyme, composed of four 79,000-Da subunits. These observations suggest a role of the 7,000-Da fragment which is removed by proteolysis in the maintenance of the three-dimensional structure of the subunit that causes the enzyme at low K+ concentration to show homotropic positive co-operativity. Study of the influence of pH, isolated from that of K+, on the kinetics of AMP deaminase reveals a highly pH-dependent inhibitory effect by ATP which is completely absent at acid pH values and abruptly manifests itself just above neutrality. This phenomenon may have significance in the metabolism of exercising muscle, in connection with the pH-dependent interaction of AMP deaminase with the thick filament.

Regulation of skeletal-muscle AMP deaminase: involvement of histidine residues in the pH-dependent inhibition of the rabbit enzyme by ATP.

Project description:Reaction of rabbit skeletal-muscle AMP deaminase with a low molar excess of diethyl pyrocarbonate results in conversion of the enzyme into a species with one or two carbethoxylated histidine residues per subunit that retains sensitivity to ATP at pH 7.1 but, unlike the native enzyme, it is not sensitive to regulation by ATP at pH 6.5. This effect mimics that exerted on the enzyme by limited proteolysis with trypsin, which removes the 95-residue N-terminal region from the 80 kDa enzyme subunit. These observations suggest involvement of some histidine residues localized in the region HHEMQAHILH (residues 51-60) in the regulatory mechanism which stabilizes the binding of ATP to its inhibitory site at acidic pH. Carbethoxylation of two histidine residues per subunit abolishes the inhibition by ATP of the proteolysed enzyme at pH 7.1, suggesting the obligatory participation of a second class of histidine residues, localized in the 70 kDa subunit core, in the mechanism of the pH-dependent inhibition of the enzyme by ATP. At a slightly acidic pH, these histidine residues would be positively charged, resulting in a desensitized form of the enzyme similar to that obtained with the carbethoxylation reaction.

The effect of limited proteolysis on rabbit muscle creatine kinase.

Project description:Creatine kinase from rabbit muscle is inactivated by limited proteolysis with proteinase K from Tritirachium album. Gel-filtration and cross-linking studies showed that the limited proteolysis did not affect the molecular weight of the enzyme under non-denaturing conditions, but did cause changes in the reactivity of the reactive thiol group on each subunit and in the ability of the enzyme to form a 'transition-state analogue' complex in the presence of magnesium acetate plus ADP plus creatinine plus NaNO3.

Regulatory properties of AMP deaminase isoenzymes from rabbit red muscle.

Project description:We examined the kinetic and regulatory properties of the two isoenzymes of red muscle AMP deaminase, forms A and B, corresponding respectively to the single isoenzymes present in the heart and white skeletal muscle. At the optimal pH value, 6.5, both enzymes show hyperbolic substrate-velocity curves and are inhibited by GTP, inducing sigmoid kinetics. An effect similar to that of GTP is exerted on form B by ATP, whereas form A is almost insensitive to this nucleotide. At pH 7.1 both enzymes follow sigmoid kinetics. ATP enhances the sigmoidicity of the substrate-velocity curve of form B, but it stimulates form A, reverting sigmoidal to hyperbolic kinetics shown by the enzyme at optimal pH. At pH 7.1, form A is also less sensitive to the inhibitory action of Pi and GTP. These results suggest that, owing to the presence of form A, AMP deamination occurs in red muscle also at moderate work intensity. A possible role of this process in counteracting the production of adenosine by 5'-nucleotidase is hypothesized.

Isolation and characterization of AMP deaminase from mammalian (rabbit) myocardium.

Project description:AMP deaminase (AMP aminohydrolase, EC 3.5.4.6) is a ubiquitous enzyme in eukaryotes, which may play a role in ATP catabolism during myocardial ischaemia. We report isolation of AMP deaminase from rabbit myocardium with a 19% recovery and a 650-fold enrichment, using a newly devised protocol involving sequential cation-exchange, gel-permeation and affinity chromatographies. The cardiac AMP deaminase preparation described was electrophoretically and chromatographically homogeneous and contained one unique N-terminal residue (leucine). The isolated enzyme was sensitive to various cations (K+, Mg2+, Ca2+). The pH optimum of purified cardiac AMP deaminase was 6.8, its pI was 6.5, and it displayed substrate-specificity toward 5'-AMP. The subunit molecular mass of rabbit heart AMP deaminase on SDS/PAGE (81 kDa) and the holoenzyme molecular mass as estimated by non-denaturing size-exclusion h.p.l.c. (330 kDa) indicated that the native enzyme was a tetramer. Cardiac AMP deaminase displayed a sigmoidal substrate-saturation curve in the presence of 100 mM KCl. Apparent Michaelis constants were a Km of 5.8 mM AMP and a Vmax. of 11.1 mumol/min per mg of protein. ATP and ADP were positive allosteric effectors of cardiac AMP deaminase: the apparent Km was decreased to 1.7 mM by 1.0 mM ATP. The enzyme was inhibited by GTP, coformycin, coformycin 5'-phosphate, palmitoyl-CoA, inorganic phosphate compounds, and the metal chelator o-phenanthroline. No inhibition either by product nucleotide (IMP) or by nicotinamide nucleotides was detected when these agents were examined at concentrations up to 2.5 mM. We conclude that this enzyme preparation offers a means by which the kinetic mechanism and regulation of mammalian cardiac AMP deaminase may be directly investigated.

Inactivation of rabbit muscle phosphoglycerate mutase by limited proteolysis with thermolysin.

Project description:Rabbit muscle phosphoglycerate mutase is inactivated by proteolysis with thermolysin. Inactivation is correlated with the breakage of one (or a few) bond(s) near one end of the polypeptide chain. There is no change in the overall conformation, quaternary structure or binding to Cibacron Blue on proteolysis. The possible analogy with the existence of a flexible tail in the yeast enzyme is discussed.

Heterogeneity of rabbit muscle creatine kinase and limited proteolysis by proteinase K.

Project description:By using sodium dodecyl sulphage/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis it was shown that rabbit muscle creatine kinase, both in a homogenate and purified, appears to be composed of a mixture of two peptides (mol.wts. 42100 and 40300) differing in length by about 15 amino acids. It is found that low concentrations of proteinase K from the fungus Tritirachium album can cleave about 38 amino acids from each chain of creatine kinase, leaving two large fragments (mol.wts 37700 and 35500). Scission of the whole enzyme was found to be concomitant with complete loss of enzyme activity. MgADP in the presence of absence of creatine slowed the rate of proteolysis by about 50%, but the transition-state analogue complex creatine-NO3--MgADP appeared to protect completely. The time course for the proteolytic inactivation in the presence of this complex, but not in its absence, was biphasic.

Structural determinants of limited proteolysis.

Project description:Limited or regulatory proteolysis plays a critical role in many important biological pathways like blood coagulation, cell proliferation, and apoptosis. A better understanding of mechanisms that control this process is required for discovering new proteolytic events and for developing inhibitors with potential therapeutic value. Two features that determine the susceptibility of peptide bonds to proteolysis are the sequence in the vicinity of the scissile bond and the structural context in which the bond is displayed. In this study, we assessed statistical significance and predictive power of individual structural descriptors and combination thereof for the identification of cleavage sites. The analysis was performed on a data set of >200 proteolytic events documented in CutDB for a variety of mammalian regulatory proteases and their physiological substrates with known 3D structures. The results confirmed the significance and provided a ranking within three main categories of structural features: exposure > flexibility > local interactions. Among secondary structure elements, the largest frequency of proteolytic cleavage was confirmed for loops and lower but significant frequency for helices. Limited proteolysis has lower albeit appreciable frequency of occurrence in certain types of ?-strands, which is in contrast with some previous reports. Descriptors deduced directly from the amino acid sequence displayed only marginal predictive capabilities. Homology-based structural models showed a predictive performance comparable to protein substrates with experimentally established structures. Overall, this study provided a foundation for accurate automated prediction of segments of protein structure susceptible to proteolytic processing and, potentially, other post-translational modifications.

Highly exposed segment of the Spf1p P5A-ATPase near transmembrane M5 detected by limited proteolysis.

Project description:The yeast Spf1p protein is a primary transporter that belongs to group 5 of the large family of P-ATPases. Loss of Spf1p function produces ER stress with alterations of metal ion and sterol homeostasis and protein folding, glycosylation and membrane insertion. The amino acid sequence of Spf1p shows the characteristic P-ATPase domains A, N, and P and the transmembrane segments M1-M10. In addition, Spf1p exhibits unique structures at its N-terminus (N-T region), including two putative additional transmembrane domains, and a large insertion connecting the P domain with transmembrane segment M5 (D region). Here we used limited proteolysis to examine the structure of Spf1p. A short exposure of Spf1p to trypsin or proteinase K resulted in the cleavage at the N and C terminal regions of the protein and abrogated the formation of the catalytic phosphoenzyme and the ATPase activity. In contrast, limited proteolysis of Spf1p with chymotrypsin generated a large N-terminal fragment containing most of the M4-M5 cytosolic loop, and a minor fragment containing the C-terminal region. If lipids were present during chymotryptic proteolysis, phosphoenzyme formation and ATPase activity were preserved. ATP slowed Spf1p proteolysis without detectable changes of the generated fragments. The analysis of the proteolytic peptides by mass spectrometry and Edman degradation indicated that the preferential chymotryptic site was localized near the cytosolic end of M5. The susceptibility to proteolysis suggests an unexpected exposure of this region of Spf1p that may be an intrinsic feature of P5A-ATPases.

Probing prothrombin structure by limited proteolysis.

Project description:Prothrombin, or coagulation factor II, is a multidomain zymogen precursor of thrombin that undergoes an allosteric equilibrium between two alternative conformations, open and closed, that react differently with the physiological activator prothrombinase. Specifically, the dominant closed form promotes cleavage at R320 and initiates activation along the meizothrombin pathway, whilst the open form promotes cleavage at R271 and initiates activation along the alternative prethrombin-2 pathway. Here we report how key structural features of prothrombin can be monitored by limited proteolysis with chymotrypsin that attacks W468 in the flexible autolysis loop of the protease domain in the open but not the closed form. Perturbation of prothrombin by selective removal of its constituent Gla domain, kringles and linkers reveals their long-range communication and supports a scenario where stabilization of the open form switches the pathway of activation from meizothrombin to prethrombin-2. We also identify R296 in the A chain of the protease domain as a critical link between the allosteric open-closed equilibrium and exposure of the sites of cleavage at R271 and R320. These findings reveal important new details on the molecular basis of prothrombin function.
