Kidney alkaline phosphatase is an enzyme which requires two types of metals for maximal activity: zinc, which is essential, and magnesium, which is stimulatory. The main features of the Mg2+ stimulation have been analyzed. The stimulation is pH-dependent and is observed mainly between pH 7.5 and 10.5. Mg2+ binding to native alkaline phosphatase is characterized by a dissociation constant of 50 muM at pH 8.5,25 degrees. Binding of Zn2+ is an athermic process. Both the rate constants of association, ka, and of dissociation, kd, have low values. Typical values are 7 M(-1) at pH 8.0, 25 degrees, for ka and 4.10(-4) S(-1) at pH 8.0, 25 degrees, for kd. The on and off processes have high activation energies of 29 kcal mol (-1). Mg2+ can be replaced at its specific site by Mn2+, Co2+, Ni2+, and Zn2+. Zinc binding to the Mg2+ site inhibits the native alkaline phosphatase. Mn2+, Co2+, and Ni2+ also bind to the Mg2+ site with a stimulatory effect which is nearly identic-al with that of Mg2+, Mn2+ is the stimulatory cation which binds most tightly to the Mg2+ site; the dissociation constant of the Mn2+ kidney phosphatase complex is 2 muM at pH 8.5. The stoichiometry of Mn2+ binding has been found to be 1 eq of Mn2+ per mol of dimeric kidney phosphatase. The native enzyme displays absolute half-site reactivity for Mn2+ binding. Mg2+ binding site and the substrate binding sites are distinct sites. The Mg2+ stimulation corresponds to an allosteric effect. Mg2+ binding to its specific sites does not affect substrate recognition, it selectively affects Vmax values. Quenching of the phosphoenzyme formed under steady state conditions with [32P]AMP as a substrate as well as stopped flow analysis of the catalyzed hydrolysis of 2,4-dinitrophenyl phosphate or p-nitrophenyl phosphate have shown that the two active sites of the native and of the Mg2+-stimulated enzyme are not equivalent. Stopped flow analysis indicated that one of the two active sites was phosphorylated very rapidly whereas the other one was phosphorylated much more slowly at pH 4.2. Half of the sites were shown to be reactive at pH 8.0. Quenching experiments have shown that only one of the two sites is phosphorylated at any instant; this result was confirmed by the stopped flow observation of a burst of only 1 mol of nitrophenol per mol of dimeric phosphatase in the pre-steady state hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl phosphate. The half-of-the-sites reactivity observed for the native and for the Mg2+-stimulated enzyme indicates that the same type of complex, the monophosphorylated complex, accumulates under steady state conditions with both types of enzymes. Mg2+ binding to the native enzyme at pH 8.0 increases considerably the dephosphorylation rate of this monophosphorylated intermediate. A possible mechanism of Mg2+ stimulation is discussed.

Phosphate-water oxygen exchange catalyzed by Escherichia coli alkaline phosphatase was monitored using the 18O shift on the 31P NMR signal of inorganic phosphate. Different kinetic patterns were observed with native zinc enzyme and with its cobalt analogue. For native enzyme at pH values ranging from 4.4 to 10.0, the distribution of 18O species in Pi, viz. P18O4, P18O316O,P18O216O2,P18O16O3,P16O4, with time is compatible with a kinetic scheme in which E-P, the noncovalent enzyme-phosphate complex, dissociates more rapidly than it forms the covalent complex E-P. For the cobalt enzyme at pH 6.8, the distribution of 18O species in Pi with time is different and leads to the conclusion that formation of E-P is more rapid than dissociation of Pi from E-P-A computer simulation gave good quantitative agreement with the observed distribution for the time course of the cobalt enzyme reaction when the ratio of the rate of formation of E-P to dissection of E-P was assumed to be 3 +/- 0.5.

Changes of alkaline phosphatase activity in the process of healing liver injuries of rats on which partial hepatectomy was performed were the subject of our researches. Reaction on alkaline phosphatase was performed on cryostat sections according to the method of Gomori-Takamatsu. It has been found that granulated precipitate of cobalt sulphide was localized in the cytoplasm of granulocytes, macrophages and fibroblasts. A diffusive reaction comprized clusters of newly created collagen fibres. In early stages in the centres of necrosis, the activity of alkaline phosphatase increased, in later periods a lack of the activity was observed. Steatosis of liver tissue does not correlate with the intensity of the reaction. Lack of alkaline phosphatase activity is characteristic for old cicatrices. The authors discuss the effects of the histogenetical process during healing of liver injury on the results of the histoenzymatic reactions. The authors suggest that alkaline phosphatase is involved in the mechanism of re-building collagen fibres. It is stressed in the conclusion that the localization and intensity of alkaline phosphatase in the area of healing liver lesions are variable depending on the period of healing wound of the liver and the influence of other complications.

Alkaline phosphatase of Escherichia coli, isolated by procedures which do not alter its intrinsic metal content, contains 1.3 +/- 0.3 g-atom(s) of magnesium and 4.0 +/- 0.2 g-atoms of zinc per mol of molecular weight 89 000 (Bosron et al., 1975). Substitution of Co(II) for Zn(II) and/or Mg(II) results in spectral properties which can be correlated with enzymatic activity. Magnesium does not activate the apoenzyme but augments the activity of 2-Co(II) enzyme almost 3-fold and that of the 4-Co(II) enzyme 1.3-fold. The magnesium-induced increase in activity of the 2-Co(II) enzyme is accompanied by spectral changes which are consistent with an alteration from largely octahedral-like to pentacoordinate-like coordination geometry. Magnesium increases the intensity of the absorption and magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) signals of the 4-Co(II) enzyme but without evidence of changes in coordination geometry. Cobalt when bound to the magnesium sites results in octahedral-like EPR spectra, unperturbed by phosphate which significantly affects cobalt at the pentacoordinate-like sites. In the absence of magnesium, 6 g-atoms of cobalt are required to maximize the spectral properties, but activity does not increase further after the addition of only 4 g-atoms of cobalt, while activity is optimal with only 2 g-atoms of cobalt. Hydrogen-tritium exchange measurements indicate that magnesium also stabilizes the dynamic structural properties of the apo- and 2-Co(II) enzymes but has little effect on the structure of 4-Co(II) phosphatase. The response to magnesium of both the spectral properties and enzymatic activities of cobalt alkaline phosphatase demonstrates that magnesium regulates cobalt (and zinc) binding and modulates the activity of the resultant products.

Human liver alkaline phosphatase is a metalloenzyme requiring Zn2 and Mg2 for full activity. Zn2 cannot be replaced by manganese, cobalt or calcium, whereas Mg2 can be replaced by manganese or calcium. The binding constants of the enzyme for different divalent cations were determined by the use of complexing agents. The enzyme is inhibited by a number of reducing and complexing agents such as 2-mercaptoethanol, cyanide, nitrilotriacetic acid and EDTA. From studies using these inhibitors it is suggested that there are different mechanisms of inhibition. Reversible inhibition occurs if the free Zn2 concentration is not significantly lower than 10(-12)M. Inhibition is irreversible at lower Zn2 concentrations. Evidence is given, that the human liver alkaline phosphatase possesses different zinc binding sites, which are responsible for the catalytic function and for the integrity of the enzyme structure.

The subcellular distributions of alkaline phosphates I (the major activity of prepubertal mouse ovaries) and alkaline phosphatase Ib (a kinetically distinct isoenzyme induced in large amounts by injection of human chorionic gonadotropin or luteinizing hormone) were studied by differential rate centrifugation and discontinuous density gradient centrifugation of ovarian homogenates from control and gonadotropin-treated mice. The distributions of the two alkaline phosphatases were alike and were similar to those of nucleotidase, Mg2+ -dependent ATPase and Co2+ -stimulated naphthylamidase activities, suggesting that they were associated with plasma-membrane vesicles.

Alkaline phosphatase of E. coli, isolated by procedures which do not alter its intrinsic metal content, contains 1.3 +/- 0.3 g-atom of magnesium and 4.0 +/- 0.2 g-atom of zinc per molecule of molecular weight 89,000. Magnesium, the role of which has been unappreciated, significantly affects the function and structure of alkaline phosphatase containing either 2 or 4 g-atom of zinc per mole. Magnesium does not activate the apoenzyme but increases the activity of the enzyme containing 2 g-atom of zinc 4.4-fold and that of the enzyme containing 4 g-atom 1.2-fold. The results obtained with enzyme in which cobalt is substituted for zinc are analogous. Moreover, the absorption and electron paramagnetic resonance spectra of cobalt phosphatases reveal the effects of magnesium on cobalt coordination geometry. Addition of magnesium changes the spectral characteristics of the apoenzyme reconstituted with 2 g-atom of cobalt from predominantly octahedral to 4- or 5-coordinate geometry. These two classes of cobalt binding sites have been associated with catalysis and structure stabilization, respectively. Therefore, magnesium controls the occupancy of the catalytic and structural binding sites and modulates the resultant enzymatic activity. Hydrogen-tritium exchange was employed to determine the effects of magnesium on the conformational stability of phosphatase. Magnesium stabilizes the dynamic structural properties, both of apophosphatase and of enzyme containing 2 g-atom of zinc, which is further stabilized by 2 more zinc atoms. The role of magnesium and other metal ions in regulatory processes, only now beginning to be explored fully, will likely emerge as an important avenue for achievement of regulatory effects in metalloenzymes.

Modification of the carboxylate groups of purified S1 nuclease resulted in a loss of its single-stranded DNAase, RNAase and phosphomonoesterase activities. The inactivation was due to the removal of zinc atoms from the enzyme and this in turn was dependent on the degree of modification. While the removal of one zinc atom resulted in the partial inactivation of the enzyme, removal of the remaining zinc atoms resulted in the complete inactivation of the enzyme. Similar results were obtained when the purified enzyme was incubated with various concentrations of the metal chelator, EDTA. The EDTA-(1 mM)-treated enzyme, depleted of one zinc atom, showing 40-45% residual activity, when incubated with 1 mM Zn2+ or 1 mM Co2+, regained a significant amount of its initial activity towards all the substrates. However, Woodward's-Reagent-K-modified enzyme depleted of one zinc atom and having the same level of activity (40-45%) could not regain its activity, indicating that the carboxylate groups are involved in the metal binding. Data obtained with carboxylate-group modification, EDTA-treatment, reconstitution with metal ions, zinc estimation and CD analysis of the enzyme suggests that, out of three zinc atoms present in S1 nuclease, zinc I is easily replaceable and is probably involved in the catalytic activity while zinc II and zinc III are involved in maintaining the enzyme structure.

EDTA treatment of intestinal brush border membranes (BBM) and epithelial cell supernatant completely inhibited alkaline phosphatase (AP) activity in suckling rat intestine. AP activity was fully regained upon dialysis of the preparations against Zn2+ and to a lesser extent against Co2+, Ca2+ and Mn2+ ions. Other metal ions (Cd2+ and Mg2+) tested were essentially ineffective in restoring the enzyme activity. Considerable differences were observed in kinetic characteristics of the membrane-bound and soluble AP activities in response to various metal ions. There were apparent differences in Km, Vmax, energy of activation (Ea) and thermal stability of the soluble and membrane-bound AP activities, after metal ion substitutions. Nearly 35% AP activity was solubilized on sodium dodecyl sulphate treatment of brush borders (membrane protein: detergent ratio 1:3; w/w). Dialysis of detergent solubilized BBM against different metal ions reconstituted AP activity in the particulate fraction: the order of effectiveness was Zn greater than Ca greater than Mn greater than Co. The kinetic properties of the reconstituted AP were essentially similar to the non-integrated enzyme activity in response to various divalent metal ions examined. But there were apparent differences in Km, Vmax, Ea and thermal stability of the reconstituted AP activity compared to native brush border enzyme. The results suggest the unique requirement of Zn ions for stability and catalytic activity of the soluble and membrane-bound AP activity in suckling rat intestine.

Previous studies suggested that insulin receptor tyrosine kinase (IRTK) is the sole tyrosine kinase in rat adipocytes. We now report that this cell type also contains a cytosolic soluble protein tyrosine kinase (CytPTK) which is not related to IRTK. The enzyme phosphorylated PolyGlu4Tyr with high efficiency at a rate of 20 +/- 2 pmol PTyr/20 micrograms PolyGlu4Tyr/20 min/micrograms cytosolic protein. Upon gel filtration chromatography the enzyme activity was eluted as a single peak corresponding to a molecular mass of 53 +/- 3 kDa. Unlike IRTK, CytPTK activity was supported by Co2+ rather than by Mn2+, and it was not inactivated by N-ethylmaleimide. The enzyme was extremely sensitive to inhibition by staurosporine (ID50 = 3 nM) as opposed to IRTK (ID50 = 8 microM). In addition, CytPTK (but not IRTK) was largely activated by vanadate ions. Agents which affect the serine/threonine phosphorylation state of cell proteins did not alter CytPTK activity when subjected to intact adepocytes. In a cell-free system CytPTK activity was largely reduced by pretreatment with immobilized alkaline phosphatase at physiological pH. The possibility that CytPTK participates in insulin-independent regulation of glucose metabolism is suggested.
