Polidocanol-solubilized osseous plate alkaline phosphatase was modulated by manganese ions in a similar way as by zinc ions. For concentrations up to 1.0 nM, the enzyme was stimulated by manganese ions, showing site-site interactions (n = 2.2). However, larger concentrations (> 0.1 microns) were inhibitory. Manganese ions could play the role of zinc ions stimulating the enzyme synergistically in the presence of magnesium ions (Kd = 7.2 microns; V = 1005.5 U mg-1). Manganese ions could also play the role of magnesium ions, stimulating the enzyme synergistically in the presence of zinc ions (Kd = 2.2 microns; V = 1036.7 U mg-1). However, manganese ions could not substitute for zinc and magnesium at the same time since ion assymetry is necessary for full activity of the enzyme. A steady-state kinetic model for the modulation of enzyme activity by manganese ions is proposed.

Polidocanol-solubilized osseous plate alkaline phosphatase was modulated by cobalt ions in a similar way as by magnesium ions. For concentrations up to 1 microM, the Chelex-treated enzyme was stimulated by cobalt ions, showing Kd = 6.0 microM, V = 977.5 U/mg, and site-site interactions (n = 2.5). Cobalt-enzyme was highly unstable at 37 degrees C, following a biphasic inactivation process with inactivation constants of about 0.0625 and 0.0015 min-1. Cobalt ions stimulated the enzyme synergistically in the presence of magnesium ions (Kd = 5.0 microM; V = 883.0 U/mg) or in the presence of zinc ions (Kd = 75.0 microM; V = 1102 U/mg). A steady-state kinetic model for the modulation of enzyme activity by cobalt ions is proposed.

Rat osseous plate alkaline phosphatase is a metalloenzyme with two binding sites for Zn2+ (sites I and III) and one for Mg2+ (site II). This enzyme is stimulated synergistically by Zn2+ and Mg2+ (Ciancaglini et al., 1992) and also by Mn2+ (Leone et al., 1995) and Co2+ (Ciancaglini et al., 1995). This study was aimed to investigate the modulation of enzyme activity by Ca2+. In the absence of Zn2+ and Mg2+, Ca2+ had no effects on the activity of Chelex-treated, Polidocanol-solubilized enzyme. However, in the presence of 10 microM MgCl2, increasing concentration of Ca2+ were inhibitory, suggesting the displacement of Mg2+ from the magnesium-reconstituted enzyme. For calcium-reconstituted enzyme, Zn2+ concentrations up to 0.1 microM were stimulatory, increasing specific activity from 130 U/mg to about 240 U/mg with a K0.5 = 8.5 nM. Above 0.1 microM Zn2+ exerted a strong inhibitory effect and concentrations of Ca2+ up to 1 mM were not enough to counteract this inhibition, indicating that Ca2+ was easily displaced by Zn2+. At fixed concentrations of Ca2+, increasing concentrations of Mg2+ increased the enzyme specific activity from 472 U/mg to about 547 U/mg, but K0.5 values were significantly affected (from 4.4 microM to 38.0 microM). The synergistic effects observed for the activity of Ca2+ plus magnesium-reconstituted enzyme, suggested that these two ions bind to the different sites. A model to explain the effect of Ca2+ on the activity of the enzyme is presented.

Polidocanol-solubilized alkaline phosphatase was purified to homogeneity with a specific activity of 822.3 U/mg. In the absence of Mg2+ and Ca2+ ions and at pH 9.4, the enzyme hydrolyzed ATP in a manner that could be represented by biphasic curves with V = 94.3 U/mg, K0.5 = 17.2 microM, and n = 1.8 and V = 430.3 U/mg, K0.5 = 3.2 mM, and n = 3.2 for high- and low-affinity sites, respectively. In the presence of saturating concentrations of Mg2+ or Ca2+ ions, the hydrolysis of ATP also followed biphasic curves. However, the specific activity increased to as much as 1,000 U/mg, whereas the K0.5 and n values remained almost unchanged. In the presence of nonsaturating concentrations of metal ions, the hydrolysis of ATP was similar to that observed in the absence of these ions, but with a marked decrease in K0.5 values. At pH 7.5, the enzyme also hydrolyzed ATP with K0.5 = 8.1 microM and V = 719.8 U/mg. Apparently, alkaline phosphatase was able to hydrolyze ATP in vivo, either at pH 7.5 or pH 9.4. These data contribute to the knowledge of the biological properties of skeletal alkaline phosphatase and suggest that this enzyme may have a high-affinity binding site for ATP at alkaline pH.

Alkaline phosphatase is required for the mineralization of bone and cartilage. This enzyme is localized in the matrix vesicle, which plays a role key in calcifying cartilage. In this paper, we standardize a method for construction an alkaline phosphatase liposome system to mimic matrix vesicles and examine a some kinetic behavior of the incorporated enzyme. Polidocanol-solubilized alkaline phosphatase, free of detergent, was incorporated into liposomes constituted from dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC), dilaurilphosphatidylcholine (DLPC) or dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC). This process was time-dependent and >95% of the enzyme was incorporated into the liposome after 4h of incubation at 25 degrees C. Although, incorporation was more rapid when vesicles constituted from DPPC were used, the incorporation was more efficient using vesicles constituted from DMPC. The 395nm diameter of the alkaline phosphatase-liposome system was relatively homogeneous and more stable when stored at 4 degrees C. Alkaline phosphatase was completely released from liposome system only using purified phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PIPLC). These experiments confirm that the interaction between alkaline phosphatase and lipid bilayer of liposome is via GPI anchor of the enzyme, alone. An important point shown is that an enzyme bound to liposome does not lose the ability to hydrolyze ATP, pyrophosphate and p-nitrophenyl phosphate (PNPP), but a liposome environment affects its kinetic properties, specifically for pyrophosphate. The standardization of such system allows the study of the effect of phospholipids and the enzyme in in vitro and in vivo mineralization, since it reproduces many essential features of the matrix vesicle.

Alkaline phosphatase is required for the mineralization of bone and cartilage. This enzyme is localized in the matrix vesicle, which plays a role key in calcifying cartilage. In this paper we standardize a method to construction a resealed ghost cell-alkaline phosphatase system to mimic matrix vesicles and examine the kinetic behavior of the incorporated enzyme. Polidocanol-solubilized alkaline phosphatase, free of detergent, was incorporated into resealed ghost cells. This process was time-dependent and practically 50% of the enzyme was incorporated into the vesicles in 40 h of incubation, at 25 degrees C. Alkaline phosphatase-ghost cell systems were relatively homogeneous with diameters of about 300 nm and were more stable when stored at -20 degrees C. Alkaline phosphatase was completely released from the resealed ghost cell-system using only phospholipase C. These experiments confirm that the interaction between alkaline phosphatase and the lipid bilayer of resealed ghost cell is exclusively via glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor of the enzyme. An important point shown is that an enzyme bound to resealed ghost cell does not lose the ability to hydrolyze ATP, pyrophosphate and p-nitrophenyl phosphate (PNPP), but the presence of a ghost membrane, as a support of the enzyme, affects its kinetic properties. Moreover, calcium ions stimulate and phosphate ions inhibit the PNPPase activity of alkaline phosphatase present in resealed ghost cells.

The aim of this study was to obtain membrane-bound alkaline phosphatase from osteoblastic-like cells of human alveolar bone. Cells were obtained by enzymatic digestion and maintained in primary culture in osteogenic medium until subconfluence. First passage cells were cultured in the same medium and at 7, 14, and 21 days, total protein content, collagen content, and alkaline phosphatase activity were evaluated. Bone-like nodule formation was evaluated at 21 days. Cells in primary culture at day 14 were washed with Tris-HCl buffer, and used to extract the membrane-bound alkaline phosphatase. Cells expressed osteoblastic phenotype. The apparent optimum pH for PNPP hydrolysis by the enzyme was pH 10.0. This enzyme also hydrolyzes ATP, ADP, fructose-1-phosphate, fructose-6-phosphate, pyrophosphate and beta-glycerophosphate. PNPPase activity was reduced by typical inhibitors of alkaline phosphatase. SDS-PAGE of membrane fraction showed a single band with activity of approximately 120 kDa that could be solubilized by phospholipase C or Polidocanol.
