Brush borders were prepared from pig intestinal mucosa and the membrane proteins solubilized with either Triton X-100 or papain. Proteins, thus released, were used as antigens to raise antisera in rabbits. The immunoglobulin G fractions were isolated and shown by the double layer immunofluorescence staining technique to react only with the brush border region of the enterocyte. The antibodies obtained were used in immunoelectrophoretic studies on the brush border proteins. Eight hydrolytic activities were identified by the use of histo-chemical staining methods. These were the microsomal aminopeptidase (EC 3.4.11.2), aspartate aminopeptidase (EC 3.4.11.7), dipeptidyl peptidase IV (EC 3.4.14.X), lactase (EC 3.2.1.23), glucoamylase (EC 3.2.1.3), sucrase (EC 3.2.1.48), isomaltase (EC 3.2.1.10) and alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1). In addition, at least four faint immunoprecipitates were formed but none of these were identified.

The alkaline phosphatase present on isolated brush border and basal lateral membranes of rat duodenal epithelium were examined by means of a variety of biochemical assays and physical methods. The two alkaline phosphatases have similar pH optima of 9.6--9.8, similar substrate km's for p-nitrophenyl phosphate (PNPP) of 71 micromolar, similar responses to the inhibitors 2-mercaptoethanol, theophylline, phenylalanine, and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), similar sensitivities to calcium, magnesium, zinc, sodium, and potassium, and similar insensitivities to digestion with trypsin of papain. The two enzymes also exhibit similar molecular weights on SDS-polyacrylamide gels in the range 124,000--150,000, and both enzymes show an Rf value of 0.092 on Triton X-100 polyacrylamide gels, indicating similar intrinsic charges. The Vmax of the brush border enzyme is ten times greater than that of the basal lateral enzyme, 140 mumoles/mg-h as opposed to 14 mumoles/mg-h. The differences in Vmax are a reflection of the known distribution of alkaline phosphatase in rat duodenum, there being more alkaline phosphatase activity present on the brush border than on the basal lateral surface. One other major difference was observed between the two enzymes, the stimulation of the basal lateral and not the brush border alkaline phosphatase by SDS, Triton X-100, or cholate. We conclude that the enzymes are very similar to one another and probably perform similar membrane functions.

Apatite formation from synthetic extracellular fluids is rate-limited both at the initial amorphous precursor deposition step and at the amorphous-crystalline transformation reaction. Nucleotide diphosphates and triphosphates and low molecular weight metabolites containing two attached ester phosphate groups all inhibited amorphous-crystalline conversion at concentrations of 10(-5) to 10(-6)M. Both native and synthetic polynucleotides as well as the phosphoproteins from rat dentin or egg yolk also inhibited crystal formation from amorphous calcium phosphate. In all cases, substantial amounts of inhibitor molecules were incorporated into the stabilized amorphous precipitates. Treatment of isolated, inhibitor-stabilized amorphous precipitates with hydrolytic enzymes such as alkaline phosphatase or papain reversed the inhibitory effect and permitted crystallization to proceed normally.

Isatin has been found to inhibit rat testicular alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1) uncompetitively. The hyperbolic curve relating inhibition as a function of substrate concentration; the persistence of inhibition after the tertiary structure of the enzyme has been altered by heat denaturation, exposure to urea or papain digestion; the small changes in entropy, free energy and enthalpy in the presence of isatin, and the number of isatin molecules (n = 1.29) combining with one molecule of enzyme indicate the non-allosteric nature of inhibition.

Alkaline phosphatase was brought into solution from microsomal fractions of placentas of varying gestational age by using gradually increasing concentrations of proteinase papain. When the activity of the soluble alkaline phosphatase (S) was compared with that of the non-soluble residue (R), the S/R ratio rose as pregnancy progressed. The electrophoretic pattern showed that in serum from pregnant women the papain-soluble alkaline phosphatase corresponded to the heat-stable one. These results indicate that the cytoplasmic membrane of the trophoblast changes with the growth of the placenta so that this enzyme is easily dissolved by papain. It is probable that alkaline phosphatase molecules easily enter the maternal blood stream in late pregnancy.

About 90% of the protein of hamster intestinal brush borders was solubilised in 0.25% (w/v) sodium dodecyl sulphate without total loss of biological activity. Detergent-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the solubilised proteins separated 10-15 bands and partially resolved maltase, lactase, sucrase-maltase, trehalase and alkaline phosphatase activities. The disaccharidases, which were associated with the higher molecular weight proteins, were preferentially solubilised with 0.1%. (w/v) Triton X-100, butanol or papain, whereas Tris and NaI extracted only the lower molecular weight proteins, possible derived from the core filaments. Electrophoresis of brush border proteins metabolically labelled with [14-C] glucosamine suggested that many of the membrane-bound enzymes are glycoproteins. However, chromatography of a papain digest on Sephadex G-200 showed that the sucrase-maltase complex can be separated nearly free of carbohydrate without total loss of activity. The importance of characterizing membrane proteins solubilised by a number of techniques is discussed.

1. The hydrolysis of glycyl-L-leucine, glycyl-L-tyrosine, tributyrin, sucrose, maltose, soluble starch and alpha- and beta-glycerophosphates by everted segments of rat intestine was estimated separately or in combination. 2. A comparative study showed significant interaction between different substrates which affected their digestion. 3. Two types of interaction were identified: products of hydrolysis (1) affected the hydrolysis of homologous substances, e.g. methionine and alanine inhibited glycyl-L-leucine hydrolysis, maltose reduced glucoamylase (alpha-1,4-glucan glucohydrolase; EC 3-2-1-3) activity (intracatenary interactions); (2) interfered with the hydrolysis of a different group of substances, e.g. tributyrin inhibited dipeptidase (glycyl-L-leucine hydrolase; EC 3-4-3-2) and alkaline phosphatase (EC 3-1-3-1), glycyl-L-leucine interfered with the activity of the latter enzyme (intercatenary interactions). 4. Mechanisms of interactions were suggested by the results of a comparison of the extent of inhibition or activation of two enzymes (glycyl-L-leucine hydrolase and alkaline phosphatase) in situ in everted intestinal segments or after solubilization with papain or Triton X-100, and different treatments known to affect allosteric sites of these enzymes. 5. Tributyrin and dipeptides were found to act on alkaline phosphatase as allosteric regulators. A discontinuity of the Arrhenius plot suggested the existence of different enzyme conformations which were re-arranged by tributyrin. 6. Substrate interactions in digestion were found in adult rat, cat, rabbit and hen. Substantial differences were found between classes (Aves and Mammalia), orders (rodents, lagomorphs and carnivores) and between age-groups within an animal strain (in this instance, for the rat). 7. These interactions are thought to be involved in the co-ordination of digestion with intestinal absorption and to regulate the time and site of subsequent hydrolysis.

The releases of proteins, maltase, lactase, sucrase, trehalase, alkaline phosphatase, gamma-glutamyltransferase and leucylnaphthylamide-hydrolyzing activity from human intestinal brush bborder membrane vesicles by various enzymes (especially pancreatic proteases) have been studied. The brush border membrane enzymes are not solubilized by digestion with trypsin and chymotrypsin but are largely released after treatment with papain or elastase. Most of the enzymes are fully active after the proteolytic treatment. All proteins released by papain and elastase have been identified by electrophoresis to already known intestinal hydrolases. Electron microscopy of brush border membrane vesicles demonstrates "knob-like" structures (particles) attached to the external side of the membrane. During papain treatment, enzyme removal runs parallel with the disappearance of the particles. During elastase treatment it is not possible to correlate the release of the enzymic activities with the removal of the particles. The results indicate that most of the intestinal hydrolases are surface components attached to the external side of the membrane. They are in accord with the concept that the brush border membrane enzymes are organized within the membrane in a mosaic-like pattern.

1. Considerable amounts of intestinal alkaline phosphatase (AP) were found intralumenally in all animal species investigated, i.e. calf, pig, goat, rat, mouse, guinea pig, hen and carp. The ratios between the total activity of AP found intralumenally and the total intestinal activity vary considerably. Calves and pigs show the highest, i.e. 0.77 and 0.44, respectively, while rodents have much lower ratios. Only 20-34% of the intralumenal alkaline phosphatase (IAP) of the calf and pig is soluble and not within the sediment after centrifugation at 135,000 x g for 60 min. whereas the IAP of rodents is soluble in the range of 60-72% of the total IAP. 2. For the IAP of the mucosa and chyme of calf, all criteria were found which are generally used, indicating a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GlcPtdIns) anchor as proved by strong hydrophobicity using Triton X-114 phase partitioning, phenyl-Sepharose binding and enzyme aggregation, and the susceptibility to phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PtdIns-PLC) and papain digestion. 3. More than 80% of the mucosa alkaline phosphatase (MAP) of the proximal part of the intestine and of the particulate fraction of IAP exhibit these criteria indicating the presence of the GlcPtdIns-anchor structure, whereas the anchor content of the soluble intralumenal enzyme decreases from the pylorus to the ileocecal junction. 4. MAP partially purified to a specific activity of 1747 IU/mg retains the anchor structure. 5. The results presented indicate that the release of large amounts of AP into the chyme is realized without splitting the GlcPtdIns anchor. The possible intralumenal function of this form of AP is discussed.

We investigated by enzyme electrophoresis after prolonged neuraminidase treatment the activity of "intestinal variant" (alpha 2-globulin mobility) alkaline phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.1; ALP) in the plasma of 189 patients selected for disorders (diabetes mellitus, liver cirrhosis, and chronic renal failure) with a known high frequency of increased plasma intestinal (beta-globulin mobility) ALP activity. The overall frequency of the variant ALP was 23.8%, whereas in the samples showing intestinal ALP it was 45.0%. The variant ALP was not observed in the absence of intestinal ALP, nor in patients of blood group A. Its frequency did not differ significantly between the different patient groups. Quantification of the variant ALP by densitometry was unsatisfactory but the quantity could be estimated by subtracting the intestinal ALP activity measured by electrophoresis from the activity determined by immunoassay with monoclonal antibody that reacts with both the intestinal and the variant forms. This indicated median activity of 12 U/L for the variant, approximately equal to that of the concomitant intestinal ALP. From the effects of papain and bromelain treatments, we suggest that "intestinal variant" represents intestinal ALP with attached membrane-binding domain.
