The kinetics of rat liver L-type pyruvate kinase (EC 2.7.1.40), phosphorylated with cyclic AMP-stimulated protein kinase from the same source, and the unphosphorylated enzyme have been compared. The effects of pH and various concentrations of substrates, Mg2+, K+ and modifiers were studied. In the absence of fructose 1, 6-diphosphate at pH 7.3, the phosphorylated pyruvate kinase appeared to have a lower affinity for phosphoenolpyruvate (K0.5=0.8 mM) than the unphosphorylated enzyme (K0.5=0.3 mM). The enzyme activity vs. phosphoenolpyruvate concentration curve was more sigmoidal for the phosphorylated enzyme with a Hill coefficient of 2.6 compared to 1.6 for the unphosphorylated enzyme. Fructose 1, 6-diphosphate increased the apparent affinity of both enzyme forms for phosphoenolpyruvate. At saturating concentrations of this activator, the kinetics of both enzyme forms were transformed to approximately the same hyperbolic curve, with a Hill coefficient of 1.0 and K0.5 of about 0.04 mM for phosphoenolpyruvate. The apparent affinity of the enzyme for fructose 1, 6-diphosphate was high at 0.2 mM phosphoenolpyruvate with a K0.5=0.06 muM for the unphosphorylated pyruvate kinase and 0.13 muM for the phosphorylated enzyme. However, in the presence of 0.5 mM alanine plus 1.5 mM ATP, a higher fructose 1, 6-diphosphate concentration was needed for activation, with K0.5 of 0.4 muM for the unphosphorylated enzyme and of 1.4 muM for the phosphorylated enzyme. The results obtained strongly indicate that phosphorylation of pyruvate kinase may also inhibit the enzyme in vivo. Such an inhibition should be important during gluconeogenesis.

Kinetic data have been collected suggesting that heterotropic activation by fructose 2,6-bisphosphate and AMP is a result not only of the relief of allosteric inhibition by ATP but is also the result of an increase in the affinity of phosphofructokinase for fructose 6-phosphate. Modification of the Ascaris suum phosphofructokinase at the ATP inhibitory site produces a form of the enzyme that no longer has hysteretic time courses or homotropic positive (fructose 6-phosphate) cooperativity or substrate inhibition (ATP) (Rao, G.S. J., Wariso, B.A., Cook, P.F., Hofer, H.W., and Harris, B.G. (1987a) J. Biol. Chem. 262, 14068-14073). This form of phosphofructokinase is Michaelis-Menten in its kinetic behavior but is still activated by fructose 2,6-bisphosphate and AMP and by phosphorylation using the catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (cAPK). Fructose 2,6-bisphosphate activates by decreasing KF-6-P by about 15-fold and has an activation constant of 92 nM, while AMP decreases KF-6-P about 6-fold and has an activation constant of 93 microM. Double activation experiments suggest that fructose 2,6-bisphosphate and AMP are synergistic in their activation. The desensitized form of the enzyme is phosphorylated by cAPK and has an increased affinity for fructose 6-phosphate in the absence of MgATP. The increased affinity results in a change in the order of addition of reactants from that with MgATP adding first for the nonphosphorylated enzyme to addition of fructose 6-phosphate first for the phosphorylated enzyme. The phosphorylated form of the enzyme is also still activated by fructose 2,6-bisphosphate and AMP.

The mechanisms by which glycogen metabolism, glycolysis and gluconeogenesis are controlled in the liver both by hormones and by the concentration of glucose are reviewed. The control of glycogen metabolism occurs by phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of both glycogen phosphorylase and glycogen synthase catalysed by various protein kinases and protein phosphatases. The hormonal effect is to stimulate glycogenolysis by the intermediary of cyclic AMP, which activates directly or indirectly the protein kinases. The glucose effect is to activate the protein phosphatase system; this occurs by the direct binding of glucose to glycogen phosphorylase which is then a better substrate for phosphorylase phosphatase and is inactivated. Since phosphorylase a is a strong inhibitor of synthase phosphatase, its disappearance allows the activation of glycogen synthase and the initiation of glycogen synthesis. When glycogen synthesis is intense, the concentrations of UDPG and of glucose 6-phosphate in the liver decrease, allowing a net glucose uptake by the liver. Glucose uptake is indeed the difference between the activities of glucokinase and glucose 6-phosphatase. Since the Km of the latter enzyme is far above the physiological concentration of its substrate, the decrease in glucose 6-phosphate concentration proportionally reduces its activity. The control of glycolysis and of gluconeogenesis occurs mostly at the level of the interconversion of fructose 6-phosphate and fructose 1,6-bisphosphate under the action of phosphofructokinase 1 and fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase. Fructose 2,6-bisphosphate is a potent stimulator of the first of these two enzymes and an inhibitor of the second. It is formed from fructose 6-phosphate and ATP by phosphofructokinase 2 and hydrolysed by a fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase. These two enzymes are part of a single bifunctional protein which is a substrate for cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. Its phosphorylation causes the inactivation of phosphofructokinase 2 and the activation of fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase, resulting in the disappearance of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate. The other major effector of these two enzymes is fructose 6-phosphate, which is the substrate of phosphofructokinase 2 and a potent inhibitor of fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase; these properties allow the formation of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate when the level of glycaemia and secondarily that of fructose 6-phosphate is high.

Fructose-6-P,2-kinase:fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase has been purified to homogeneity from beef heart. The enzyme was bifunctional and the specific activities of the kinase and the phosphatase of the pure enzyme were 60 and 30 milliunits/mg, respectively. The molecular weight of the enzyme was 118,000, consisting of two subunits of 58,000. In some preparations of the enzyme a minor protein with a subunit Mr of 54,000 was present. This minor protein (54,000) was also bifunctional and showed the same immunoreactivity as the major protein. The specific activity of fructose-6-P,2-kinase of the minor component was three times higher than that of the major enzyme (58,000), but fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase activity was the same. These two forms have been separated by phosphocellulose chromatography. The tryptic peptide maps of these enzymes were very similar. The 58,000 enzyme was phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase but the 54,000 enzyme was not. These results indicated that the minor 54,000 protein might be a proteolytically digested form of the 58,000 enzyme. The Km of the kinase for fructose-6-P and ATP was 70 microM and 260 microM, respectively for both the 58,000 and the 54,000 enzymes. Km for fructose-2,6-P2 and Ki for fructose-6-P of the phosphatase was approximately 40 and 11 microM, respectively. The enzyme was phosphorylated by fructose-2,6-P2 but the stoichiometry of the phosphate incorporation was 0.05 mol/mol subunit, while 0.4 mol/mol was incorporated in rat liver enzyme under the same conditions.

Phosphofructokinase 2 and fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase extracted from either chicken liver or pigeon muscle co-purified up to homogeneity. The two homogeneous proteins were found to be dimers of relative molecular mass (Mr) close to 110,000 with subunits of Mr 54,000 for the chicken liver enzyme and 53,000 for the pigeon muscle enzyme. The latter also contained a minor constituent of Mr 54,000. Incubation of the chicken liver enzyme with the catalytic subunit of cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase in the presence of [gamma-32P]ATP resulted in the incorporation of about 0.8 mol phosphate/mol enzyme. Under similar conditions, the pigeon muscle enzyme was phosphorylated to an extent of only 0.05 mol phosphate/mol enzyme and all the incorporated phosphate was found in the minor 54,000-Mr constituent. The maximal activity of the native avian liver phosphofructokinase 2 was little affected by changes of pH between 6 and 10. Its phosphorylation by cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase resulted in a more than 90% inactivation at pH values below 7.5 and in no or little change in activity at pH 10. Intermediary values of inactivation were observed at pH values between 8 and 10. Muscle phosphofructokinase 2 had little activity at pH below 7 and was maximally active at pH 10. Its partial phosphorylation resulted in a further 25% decrease of its already low activity measured at pH 7.1 and in a negligible inactivation at pH 8.5. Phosphoenolpyruvate and citrate inhibited phosphofructokinase 2 from both origins non-competitively. The muscle enzyme and the phosphorylated liver enzyme displayed much more affinity for these inhibitors than the native liver enzyme. Fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase from both sources had about the same specific activity but only the chicken liver enzyme was activated about twofold upon incubation with ATP and cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase. All enzyme forms were inhibited by fructose 6-phosphate and this inhibition was released by inorganic phosphate and by glycerol 3-phosphate. Both liver and muscle fructose 2,6-bisphosphatases formed a 32P-labeled enzyme intermediate when incubated in the presence of fructose 2,6-[2-32P]bisphosphate.

Fructose 2,6-bisphosphate is a potent allosteric activator of 6-phosphofructo 1-kinase and an inhibitor of fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase. It potentiates the effect of AMP on both enzymes. A great deal of compelling evidence supports the hypothesis that fructose 2,6-bisphosphate plays a key role in the hormonal and substrate regulation of substrate cycling at the fructose 6-phosphate/fructose 1,6-bisphosphate level in liver. This regulation is exerted at the level of the enzyme activities responsible for the synthesis and degradation of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate. Synthesis of the compound is catalyzed by a unique enzyme which transfers the gamma-phosphate of ATP to the C2 position of fructose 6-phosphate (ATP:D fructose 6-phosphate 2-phosphotransferase) while degradation is catalyzed by a phosphohydrolase activity which is specific for the C-2 position of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate (D-fructose 2,6-bisphosphate 2-phosphohydrolase). These activities are distinct from the classical 6-phosphofructo 1-kinase and fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase with regard to molecular weight, interaction with ligands, and the efficiency with which phosphoryl transfer occurs. Both activities have been purified to homogeneity and have been shown to be present in a single enzyme protein, i.e. the enzyme is bifunctional. Incubation of the 6-phosphofructo 2-kinase/fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase with cAMP-dependent protein kinase and ATP leads to phosphorylation of the enzyme resulting in inactivation of the phosphotransferase activity and stimulation of the phosphohydrolase activity. Since fructose 2,6-bisphosphate is not further metabolized and can only be recycled to fructose 6-phosphate, simultaneous modulation of the synthesis and degradation of the compound by covalent modification of a single protein provides a very efficient and sensitive regulatory mechanism. The bifunctional enzyme was also shown to possess an ATPase activity which was nearly equal to the activity of the kinase reaction. However, in the presence of fructose 6-phosphate the enzyme did not transfer phosphate to water but rather to the C-2 position of the phosphorylated sugar. The ability of the enzyme to catalyze a partial reaction at a rate nearly equal to that of the forward reaction suggested that the reaction mechanism of the kinase proceeds by a two step transfer, i.e. via a phosphoryl enzyme intermediate.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Fructose 2,6-bisphosphate has been discovered as a potent stimulator of liver phosphofructokinase. It is also an inhibitor of fructose 1,6-biphosphatase and a stimulator of PPi: fructose 6-phosphate phosphotransferase from higher plants. It is formed from fructose 6-phosphate and ATP by a 6-phosphofructo 2-kinase and hydrolysed by a fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase. These two enzymes have very similar physicochemical properties and could not be separated from each other. They are substrates for cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase, which inactivates the first enzyme and activates the second.

An enzyme activity that catalyzes the hydrolysis of phosphate from the C-2 position of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate has been detected in rat liver cytoplasm. The S0.5 for fructose 2,6-bisphosphate was about 15 microM and the enzyme was inhibited by fructose 6-phosphate (Ki 40 microM) and activated by Pi (KA 1 mM). Fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase activity was purified to homogeneity by specific elution from phosphocellulose with fructose by specific elution from phosphocellulose with fructose 6-phosphate and had an apparent molecular weight of about 100,000, 6-phosphofructo 2-kinase activity copurified with fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase activity at each step of the purification scheme. Incubation of the purified protein with [gamma-32P]ATP and the catalytic subunit of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase resulted in the incorporation of 1 mol of 32P/mol of enzyme subunit (Mr = 50,000). Concomitant with this phosphorylation was an activation of the fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase and an inhibition of the 6-phosphofructo 2-kinase activity. Glucagon addition to isolated hepatocytes also resulted in an inhibition of 6-phosphofructo 2-kinase and activation of fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase measured in cell extracts, suggesting that the hormone regulates the level of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate by affecting both synthesis and degradation of the compound. These findings suggest that this enzyme has both phosphohydrolase and phosphotransferase activities i.e. that it is bifunctional, and that both activities can be regulated by cAMP-dependent phosphorylation.

A new activator of phosphofructokinase, which is bound to the enzyme and released during its purification, has been discovered. Its structure has been determined as beta-D Fructose-2,6-P2 by chemical synthesis, analysis of various degradation products and NMR. D-Fructose-2,6-P2 is the most potent activator of phosphofructokinase and relieves inhibition of the enzyme by ATP and citrate. It lowers the Km for fructose-6-P from 6 mM to 0.1 mM. Fructose-6-P,2-kinase catalyzes the synthesis of fructose-2,6-P2 from fructose-6-P and ATP, and the enzyme has been partially purified. The degradation of fructose-2,6-P2 is catalyzed by fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase. Thus a metabolic cycle could occur between fructose-6-P and fructose-2,6-P2, which are catalyzed by these two opposing enzymes. The activities of these enzymes can be controlled by phosphorylation. Fructose-6-P,2-kinase is inactivated by phosphorylation catalyzed by either cAMP dependent protein kinase or phosphorylase kinase. The inactive, phospho-fructose-6,P,2-kinase is activated by dephosphorylation catalyzed by phosphorylase phosphatase. On the other hand, fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase is activated by phosphorylation catalyzed by cAMP dependent protein kinase. Investigation into the hormonal regulation of phosphofructokinase reveals that glucagon stimulates phosphorylation of phosphofructokinase which results in decreased affinity for fructose-2,6-P2 appears to be due to the decreased synthesis by inactivation of fructose-2,6-P2,2-kinase and increased degradation as a result of activation of fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase. Such a reciprocal change in these two enzymes has been demonstrated in the hepatocytes treated by glucagon and epinephrine. The implications of these observations in respect to possible coordinated controls of glycolysis and glycogen metabolism are discussed.

The inhibition of hepatocyte 6-phosphofructo-1-kinase by glucagon was suppressed by insulin when the enzyme was measured in crude extracts. However, no effect of either hormone was observed after the removal of allosteric effectors from the enzyme, suggesting that the alterations in activity may be due to changes in the level of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate, a potent allosteric activator of the enzyme. Insulin opposed the action of both glucagon and exogenous cyclic AMP to lower fructose 2,6-bisphosphate levels. The concentration of glucagon and of cyclic AMP that gave a half-maximal decrease in fructose 2,6-bisphosphate levels was increased in the presence of 10 nM insulin from 0.03 to 0.09 nM and from 12 to 36 microM, respectively. Insulin also counteracted the effect of maximal concentrations of epinephrine on fructose 2,6-bisphosphate levels. In the presence of 0.02 nM glucagon or 10 microM epinephrine, 10 nM insulin enhanced 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase and decreased fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase activity in (NH4)2SO4-treated hepatocyte extracts. The bifunctional enzyme 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase was shown to be a substrate for the cAMP-dependent protein kinase but not for phosphorylase kinase. It was concluded that insulin opposed the action of glucagon and epinephrine by affecting the phosphorylation state of 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose 2,6-bisphosphatase. Fructose 2,6-bisphosphate levels were decreased in liver cells from diabetic rats. Addition of 30 mM glucose elevated fructose 2,6-bisphosphate levels in cells from fed and 24-h-starved rats but not in cells from diabetic rats. This was probably due to decreases in both 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase and glucokinase activity in the diabetic state. These results show that insulin has both short and long term effects on fructose 2,6-bisphosphate metabolism in liver.
