Incubation of rabbit liver microsomes with alkaline phosphatase resulted in a marked decrease of NADPH-dependent monooxygenase activities. This decrease was found to be correlated with the decrease of NADPH-cytochrome c reductase activity catalyzed by NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase. Neither the content of cytochrome P-450, as determined from its CO difference spectrum, nor the peroxide-supported demethylase activity catalyzed by cytochrome P-450 alone was affected by the phosphatase treatment. NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase and cytochrome b5 were not affected by the phosphatase either. NADPH-cytochrome P-450 reductase purified from rabbit liver microsomes lost its NADPH-dependent cytochrome c reductase activity upon incubation with phosphatase in a way similar to that of microsome-bound reductase. Flavin analysis showed that the phosphatase treatment caused a decrease of FMN with concomitant appearance of riboflavin. Alkaline phosphatase, therefore, inactivates the reductase by attacking its FMN, and the inactivation of the reductase, in turn, leads to a decrease of the microsomal monooxygenase activities.

An improved method is presented for the purification of 8 alpha-(N1-histidyl)riboflavin, 8 alpha-(N3-histidyl)riboflavin and their 2',5'-anhydro forms, which permits the isolation of sizeable quantities of each of these compounds from a synthetic mixture in pure form. Flavin peptides were isolated from the D-gluconate dehydrogenases of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Pseudomonas fluorescens and from the 2-keto-D-gluconate dehydrogenase of Gluconobacter melanogenus. After conversion into the aminoacyl-riboflavin, the flavin in all three enzymes was identified as 8 alpha-(N3-histidyl)riboflavin. By sequential treatment with nucleotide pyrophosphatase and alkaline phosphatase, the flavin in each enzyme was shown to be in the dinucleotide form.

A diagonal-electrophoresis method for the selective purification of serine phosphate peptides was applied to tryptic, chymotryptic and peptic digests of oxidized ovalbumin. This method is based on the release of the phosphate group bound to serine by treatment with alkaline phosphatase on paper. The identified serine phosphate peptides were purified by paper electrophoresis at pH6.5 and 2.0, dephosphorylation with bacterial alkaline phosphatase, and paper electrophoresis at pH2.0 again, in that order. The presence of two groups of serine phosphate peptides was apparent from the amino acid composition. One group contained no lysine, cysteic acid, proline, leucine or isoleucine (sequence 1) and the other had all those amino acids (sequence 2). Further degradation with subtilisin of those peptides and ;dansyl'-Edman sequence analysis established their partial sequences. The proposed sequences are as follows (with ;SerP' representing serine phosphate): sequence 1, -Ala-Gly-Arg-Glu-Val-Val-Gly-SerP-Ala-Glu-Ala-Gly-Asp-Val-Ala-Ala-Ser-(Val,Glx(2),Ser,Phe)-Arg-; sequence 2, -Asp-Lys-Leu-Pro-Gly-Phe-Gly-Asp-SerP-Ile-Glx-Ala-Glx-CySO(3)H-Gly-(Thr,Ser,Val)-(Asp,His,Val)-. The partial sequence of one of the phosphopeptides, Asp-(Glu,Ile,SerP), reported by Flavin (1954) was used to establish the proposed sequence 2.
