The inhibition of acid phosphatase activity observed after culture of Rh. rubra in phosphate rich mediums is raised by the culture of this yeast in presence of 2-hydroxybiphenyl (OHph2). The cell wall alkaline phosphatase activity was inhibited by this derivative; When cultivated with OHph2 an intra and a more extracellular acid phosphatase activity appeared. The comparative studies of the two extracellular acid phosphatases secreted in the medium with or without the OHph2 show they have similar characteristics. They are eluated at the same time from Sephadex G-200, DEAE- and CM-cellulose columns, and have the same Km. They are both glycoproteins, with the sugars forming the polyose fragment identical, but the enzyme secreted in the medium containing the OHph2 contains less sugar than the one secreted in the medium without OHph2. The appearance of this acid phosphatase activity was attributed to the alteration of the membrane glycosylating systems or to the important ultra structure modifications of the cell wall of Rh. rubra when this yeast is cultivated with OHph2.

Callus calcifying cartilage alkaline phosphatase was resolved by DEAE-cellulose column chromatography into two distinct phsophatase activities. The phosphatase activity which was eluted first from the column, (phosphatase I), was active towards a variety of phosphate esters, sodium pyrophosphatase and several linear polyphosphates, while the second phosphatase activity , (phosphatase II), was active toward simple phosphate esters but not towards sodium pyrophosphate and linear oligo or polyphosphates. All the phosphate esters, sodium pyrophosphate and polyphosphates at higher concentrations were inhibitory for phosphatase I. The modulating effects of magnesium, calcium, zinc and other phosphatase modulators have been investigated. Both phosphatases from callus calcifying cartilage were found to be substrates of neuraminidase with sialic acid as the product. Besides the difference in their specificity, the phosphatases were found to be immunologically different and to have different molecular weights, strong indication that they are different enzymes.

Pyridoxal-P reacts specifically with a single lysine residue at the active site of Escherichia coli aspartate transcarbamylase (Greenwell, P., Jewett, S. L., and Stark, G. R. (1973) J. Biol. Chem. 248, 5994-6001). Reduction of the Schiff base with sodium borohydride, succinylation of the remaining lysine residues, and digestion with trypsin result in formation of a single pyridoxyl peptide, which was purified to homogeneity after chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, treatment with alkaline phosphatase, and rechromatography. Amino acid composition and the results of limited sequential degradation showed that this peptide corresponds to residues 62 to 98 in the sequence of Konigsberg and co-workers, and contains 2 residues of lysine (Henderson, L., Roy, D., Martin, D., and Konigsberg, W., personal communication). By similar isolation, a second peptide was obtained from unsuccinylated catalytic subunit, containing only the pyridoxylated lysine, which corresponds to Lys-80. Derivatives of catalytic subunit containing an average of either one, two, or three pyridoxamine-P moieties per trimer have been prepared by reduction. These species, which retain catalytic activity in proportion to their unmodified active sites, were recombined with regulatory subunit to prepare partially modified derivatives of native aspartate transcarbamylase. At pH 8, fluorescence emission bands were observed at 340 nm, due to aromatic amino acids in the protein, and at 395 nm, due to the pyridoxamine-P moiety. Upon excitation at 280 nm energy transfer from protein to pyridoxamine-P was approximately 15%. The properties of the probe were used to study changes accompanying the binding of substrates and inhibitors. The effects of CTP and ATP were small. With the transition state analog N-(phosphonacetyl)-L-aspartate (PALA) or the substrate carbamyl-P, two types of response were observed. Derivatives of catalytic subunit and native enzyme which contain some unmodified sites and hence retain partial catalytic activity gave large increases in fluorescence at 395 nm. However, fully modified inactive derivatives gave much smaller increases. A derivative of native enzyme containing one triply modified and one unmodified catalytic subunit behaved like the other partially modified species. These results indicate that there is communication among the active sites of different catalytic trimers in modified native enzyme, as well as among active sites within the same modified catalytic trimer. The increases in fluorescence result from a red shift of the absorption maximum of the pyridoxamine-P moiety from 315 to 325 nm, which increases the absorbance at the excitation wavelength for fluorescence. At pH 7, the absorption spectrum is already shifted and, consequently, the binding of PALA and carbamyl-P has little effect on the fluorescence. Therefore, the binding of these compounds at pH 8.0 must cause a structural change in the protein, which in turn causes protonation of a group in the modified active sites, altering the spectral properties.

Highly purified alkaline phosphatase [orthophosphoric-monoester phosphohydrolase (alkaline optimum), EC 3.1.3.1] from calf intestine inactivates the glucocorticoid-binding capacity of soluble preparations from mouse fibroblasts (L cells) and rat liver. The unbound receptor is sensitive to inactivation whereas the steroid-bound receptor is unaffected. The ability of the enzyme preparation to inactivate the receptor, like its ability to dephosphorylate p-nitrophenyl phosphate, is dependent on zinc and inhibited by arsenate. Both the dephosphorylating and receptor inactivating activities coelute during DEAE-cellulose purification of the enzyme. There is no detectable proteolytic activity in the purified alkaline phosphatase preparation. In a mixed system containing both glucocorticoid and estrogen receptors, the glucocorticoid receptor is selectively inactivated. Although these observations do not prove that the receptor molecule itself is the substrate, they are consistent with the proposal that the glucocorticoid receptor can be inactivated by dephosphorylation and that only the phosphorylated form of the molecule is capable of binding steroid. A phosphorylation-dephosphorylation mechanism may be responsible for determining the level of active receptor in the cell.

Cytoplasmic extracts of interferon-treated primary chick embryo cells contain an enzyme activity that synthesized an inhibitor of chick cell-free protein synthesis. The same activity was detected in extracts of cells treated with mock preparations of interferon, but at <0.3% of the level found in interferon-treated cell extracts. The enzyme was activated by double-stranded RNA and could be isolated by binding to columns of poly(I)-poly(C)-agarose. In the column-bound state, the enzyme reacted with ATP to synthesize the inhibitor, which could then be continuously eluted from the column. The inhibitor was purified and its structure and function were compared with those of the low molecular weight inhibitor of protein synthesis made by an enzyme from interferon-treated mouse L cells. The avian and mammalian inhibitors comigrated on thin layers of polyethyleneimine-cellulose during chromatography in three different solvent systems, and they coeluted as a series of peaks from columns of DEAE-cellulose during sodium chloride gradient elution. Digestion with bacterial alkaline phosphatase or snake venom phosphodiesterase yielded products that similarly comigrated. Functionally, the two inhibitors were interchangeable: both inhibited protein synthesis in extracts of mammalian and avian cells, producing 50% inhibition at a concentration of about 0.3 nM (AMP equivalents). We conclude that the chick cell-derived oligonucleotide inhibitor has a structure that is closely related or identical to that of the inhibitor made in the mouse system, and that both preparations inhibit cell-free protein synthesis in a non-species-specific manner.

The reovirus oligoadenylates exist in two states within the virion: free and bound to viral proteins. The latter class of oligonucleotides, after digestion with Penicillium (P1) nuclease, yields adenylic acid and an adenosine-containing compound that is positively charged at pH 1.7, 3.5, or 6.5. In a mixture of [35S]methionine- and [3H]adenosine-labeled reovirus disrupted by sodium dodecyl sulfate/urea, approximately 4% of the radioactivity in [35S]methionine-labeled proteins coelutes with [3H]adenosine-labeled material at a net charge of -1.5 when analyzed by ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose. This material migrates in sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide gels with mu polypeptides and with a small protein, viii. Radioactivity is not released when the complex is boiled in buffer containing sodium dodecyl sulfate and urea or boiled in 80% dimethyl sulfoxide or when viral RNA is extracted with phenol. Digestion with Pronase converts the [3H]adenosine-labeled compound to oligomers of net charge -8 to -12 which contain nuclease P1- and alkaline phosphatase-sensitive adenylic acid residues as well as adenosine in a P1- and phosphatase-resistant linkage. These data indicate that reovirus contains structural proteins that are covalently bound to an oligoadenylate moiety.

Rat brain cortices from young animals contain large amounts of tRNA (adenine-1)methyltransferase(s). The enzyme(s) can methylate E. coli tRNA and to a lower degree yeast tRNA. Among yeast tRNA species which can be methylated we have selected tRNAAsp as a substrate for the brain enzyme. The digestions of in vitro methylated [Me-3H]-tRNAAsp with pancreatic and/or T1 ribonucleases followed by chromatographies on DEAE-cellulose, 7 M urea, suggested that the methylation of tRNAAsp occurred at a single position within the D-loop. Further digestion of the radioactive oligonucleotide recovered after DEAE-cellulose chromatography by phosphomonoesterase and snake venom phosphodiesterase enzymes followed by bidimensional thin layer chromatography enabled us to determine the location of the adenine residue which becomes methylated by the brain enzyme. This one resulted to be the adenine 14 in the D-loop of yeast tRNAAsp.

Extracts of interferon-treated HeLa cells adsorbed to poly(I) . poly(C)-agarose have been used to synthesize 2'5'oligo(A). This oligonucleotide has been characterized by enzymatic digestion with alkaline phosphatase, snake venom phosphodiesterase, T2 ribonuclease and chromatography on DEAE, and PEI-cellulose. The oligonucleotide inhibits protein synthesis in vitro and activates an endonuclease present in extracts of control and interferon-treated cells. The metabolic stability of 2'5'oligo(A) has been investigated in these cell extracts. The oligonucleotide undergoes rapid degradation, particularly in the absence of ATP and of an energy regenerating system. Furthermore, the 2'5'oligo(A)-activated endonuclease reverts to an inactive state under these conditions, but can be reactivated upon further addition of 2'5'oligo(A). A possible role for the degradation of 2'5'oligo(A) in the mechanism of interferon action is discussed.

Alkaline phosphatase [orthophosphoric monoester phosphohydrolase, EC 3.1.3.1] was purified from the mucosa of rat small intestine by butanol extraction, ethanol fractionation, gel filtration, with controlled-pore glass-10 and DEAE-cellulose column chromatography. On the gel filtration, the enzyme activity was separated into three peaks; A in the void volume, B and C at lower molecular weight positions. Enzyme A was purified to homogeneity. The activity of enzymes A, B, and C was detected even on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis at the position of the protein of enzyme A, which had a molecular weight of 110,000 daltons. Enzymatic properties such as pH optimum, Km value for the substrate, heat inactivation and inhibition by amino acids were the same in all three enzymes. Based on these findings, together with the elution positions on gel filtration, enzyme A was regarded as an aggregate, and enzymes B and C as dimer and monomer molecules, respectively.

In order to evaluate the possibility in a pig thyroid rough microsomal system of a transfer of pre-assembled sugar cores from sugar-lipids to protein, we have examined after incubation with GDP-[14C]Man the compounds bearing labeled saccharides and have determined some properties of their released saccharide moieties. The [14C]Man material specifically soluble in CHCl3/CH3OH/H2O, 10:10:3, behaved on DEAE-cellulose and when treated with hot alkali and alkaline phosphatase as a lipid pyrophosphate (sometimes accompanied by some dolichol-P-[14C]Man). Its saccharide moiety, released by mild acid, exhibited properties (molecular size, sensitivity to alpha-mannosidase, affinity for concanavalin A and charge modification introduced by a strong reductive alkaline treatment) pointing to a polymannosylated N,N'-diacetylchitobiose containing an average of nine monosaccharide units (from six to twelve). The [14C]mannosylated glycoproteins have represented all the polymeric label remaining after lipid extraction. From the susceptibility of their pronase glycopeptides to a differential reductive alkaline hydrolysis, it was concluded that their label belonged mainly to N-glycosidically linked units. Released saccharides exhibited the same properties as those from lipids, a result substantiating the possibility raised from previous studies of a transfer of pre-assembled moieties.
