A phosphatidylinositol phosphodiesterase from the culture broth of Bacillus cereus, was purified to a homogeneous state as indicated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, by ammonium sulfate precipitation and chromatography with DEAE-cellulose and CM-Sephadex. The enzyme (molecular weight: 29000 +/- 1000) was maximally active at pH 7.2-7.5, AND NOT INFLUENCED BY EDTA, ophenanthroline, monoiodoacetate, p-chloromercuribenzoate or reduced glutathione. The enzyme specifically hydrolyzed phosphatidylinositol, but did not act on phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine and sphingomyelin, under the conditions examined. The products from phosphatidylinositol of enzyme reaction were diacylglycerols and a mixture of myoinositol 1- and 1, 2-cyclic phosphates, suggesting that the enzyme was a phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C. The enzyme released alkaline phosphatase quantitatively from rat kidney slices. A kinetic analysis was made on the release of alkaline phosphatase. The results suggest that phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C can specifically act on plasma membrane of rat kidney slices.

The stimulatory and inhibitory activities in the crude preparation of protein kinase modulator from dog heart were separated by Sephadex G-100 gel filtration, and the stimulatory modulator was further purified by DEAE-cellulose chromatography. The isolated stimulatory modulator, as the crude modulator preparation, stimulated the activity of the purified guanosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cGMP)-dependent protein kinases of both mammalian and arthropod origins in the presence of cGMP. The cGMP-dependent protein kinases were not activated by cGMP in the absence of either the isolated stimulatory modulator or the crude modulator. The stimulatory modulator, unlike the crude modulator had no effect on the activity of adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent protein kinase. The stimulatory modulator was a protein since its activity was destroyed by trypsin but was resistant to hydrolysis by DNase, RNase, phospholipase C, and lysozyme. The isolated inhibitory modulator, presumably the same as the protein inhibitor of cAMP-dependent protein kinase reported by Walsh et al. (Wash. D.A., Ashby, C.D., Gonzalez, C., Calkins, D., Fischer. E.H., and Krebs, E.G. (1971) J. Biol. Chem. 246, 1977-1985), depressed the cAMP-stimulated activity of cAMP-dependent protein kinase as did the crude preparation of protein kinase modulator. The isolated inhibitory modulator, unlike the crude preparation, was without effect on cGMP-dependent protein kinase. The present findings provide evidence to support that in mammals there are separate proteins for the stimulatory and the inhibitory activities of protein kinase modulator, in contrast to the modulator from an arthropod tissue (lobster tail muscle, Donnelly et al. (Donnelly, T.E., Jr., Kuo, J.F., Reyes, P.L., Liu, Y.P., and Greengard, P. (1973) J. Biol. Chem. 248, 190-198) which has been shown to possess both activities.

1. Phospholipase C[EC 3.1.4.3] was purified from the culture filtrate of Clostridium perfringens by successive chromatographies on CM-Sephadex, DEAE-Sephadex, and Sephadex G-100. During the purification it was noted that, beside the monomer form of the enzyme which was purified, a part of the enzyme existed in active polymerized forms. 2. The purified preparation gave a single band on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and gave a single precipitin line in immunodiffusion with the National Standard gas gangrene (C. perfringens) antitoxin, indicating the homogeneity of the preparation. 3. The specific lecithin-hydrolyzing activity of the purified preparation was comparable to that of a preparation obtained by affinity chromatography, which had the highest specific activity previously reported. 4. The molecular weight of the purified enzyme was estimated to be 43,000 by SDS-polyacryl-amide gel electrophoresis, although the same preparation gave a molecular weight of 31,000 as determined by gel filtration on Sephadex G-150. From this and the above finding that a part of the enzyme exists in active polymerized forms, the discrepancy among reported values for the molecular weight of C. perfringens phospholipase C can be accounted for. 5. For maximum hydrolytic activity toward lecithin, the enzyme required sodium deoxycholate (SDC) and Ca2+ ions. In the presence of 6 mM Ca2+, the optimal molar ratio of SDC to lecithin for maximal hydrolytic activity was about 0.5 for dipalmitoyl lecithin and about 1.0 for egg lecithin. The effects of various divalent cations on the enzymatic hydrolysis were also investigated. 6. The effects of sodium deoxycholate and Ca2+ ions on the enzymatic hydrolysis are discussed, based on their possible roles in mixed micelle formation.

The authors present a method of obtaining relatively homogeneous preparations of alpha-toxoid of Cl. perfringens, type A, including the primary conception of the alpha-toxin proteins, their chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, fractionation with (NH4)2SO4, detoxication, with the subsequent gel-filtration through sephadex and isoelectric focussing. Sedimentation coefficient of the preparation proved to be 3.8 S, isoelectric point-4.83 +/- 0.07. In studying the immunogenic properties of alpha-toxoid in experiments on guinea pigs and rabbits their high immunogenicity, exceeding that of the industrial toxoid 8- and 6-fold, respectively, was established. Homogeneous preparations of alpha-toxoid provided intense anti-microbial immunity. Interlinear differences in the levels of the immune response of inbred mice, highly-reactive (BALB/c) and low-reactive (C57BL/6) to alpha-toxoid, reached 20-fold; in combination with the high immunogenicity of this antigen for mice this permits to recommend it for immunogenic studies.

The procedure for separation and purification of isoenzymes of phospholipase C from Clostridium perfringens (PLC) was developed. The procedure included primary concentration of culture liquid proteins and isoenzyme separtion on DEAE-cellulose during negative sorption of the major isoenzyme. Further purification of the isoenzymes was achieved by (NH4)2SO4 fractionation by Sephadex gel-filtration and isoelectric focusing. During polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and precipitation reaction in the agar with the antiperfringens hyperimmune serum alpha1-PLC preparations were homogenous. Their coefficient of sedimentation was 3.8 S and isoelectric point was 5.50. The minor isoenzyme alpha2-PLC had the same coefficient of sedimentation and the isoelectric point of 5.35.

Phospholipase C (phosphatidylcholine cholinephosphohydrolase, EC 3.1.4.3) from Pseudomonas aureofaciens was purified 3600-fold from the culture filtrate with a recovery of 1.6%. Purification was performed with the useof (NH4)2SO4 precipitation, Sephadex G-100 gel filtration and by ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex A-50 and CM-Sephadex C-50. The purified enzyme appeared to be homogeneous as revealed by polyacrylamide disc gel electrophoresis at pH 9.3. The molecular weight was estimated to be 35 000 by gel filtration on Sephadex G-75. Under our experimental conditions, phosphatidylethanolamine was more rapidly hydrolysed than phosphatidylcholine. Lyso forms of these two phosphatides were poor substrates. Phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, cardiolipin and sphingomyelin were not hydrolysed. The enzyme activity with phosphatidylcholine as substrate was slightly stimulated by Ca2+, Mg2+, and Mn2+. However, these cations inhibited the activity with phosphatidylethanolamine as substrate. An anionic detergent, sodium deoxycholate, slightly enhanced the activity when phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine were used as substrates. A cationic detergent, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, inhibited enzyme activity. EDTA and o-henanthroline inhibited the activity of the enzyme to a marked degree.

1. Phospholipase C (EC 3.1.4.3) from Clostridium novyi (oedematiens) type A was purified 2000-fold by (NH4)2SO4 precipitation, DEAE-Sephadex treatment in a batchwise system and Sephadex G-100 column chromatography. 2. The purified preparation had a specific activity of 95 mumol per min per mg protein toward phosphatidylcholine. This preparation was free from protease, lipase and oxygen-labile delta-hemolysin. 3. Phosphatidylcholine was hydrolyzed at the highest rate, while sphingomyelin and lysophosphatidylcholine were hydrolyzed at much lower rates. 4. Sodium deoxycholate and divalent cations such as Mg2+ and Ca2+ were extremely effective in stimulating phosphatidylcholine-hydrolyzing activity of this enzyme. 5. This enzyme hemolyzed horse red cells by hydrolyzing phosphatidylcholine, spingomyelin and phosphatidylethanolamine.

3,4-Dihydroxy[3-(3)H]butyl-1-phosphonate, and analogue of glycerol 3-phosphate, is incorporated into a very polar lipid material by cultures of Escherichia coli strain 8 and in vitro by CDP-diglyceride:sn-glycerol-3-phosphate phosphatidyltransferase. These labeled lipids have been fractionated by column chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, revealing that only one labeled compound is formed in vitro, while four are synthesized in vivo. The main component of the material formed by intact cells has been shown to be identical with that produced enzymatically. This species has been identified as the phosphonic acid analogue of phosphatidylglycerophosphate [(1,2-diacyl)-sn-glyceryl-D-4'-phosphoryloxy-3'-hydroxybutyl-1'-phosphonate]. Hydrolysis of this novel lipid with phospholipase C resulted in the production of diglyceride and a water-soluble derivative of 3,4-dihydroxybutyl-1-phosphonate and inorganic phosphate in a molar ratio of 1.03/1. Enzymatic analysis of the phosphonate liberated in this manner showed it to be the D enantiomer, thereby confirming the proposed structure of the lipid analogue. The analogue of phosphatidylglycerophosphate did not turn over and appeared to have no precursor-product relationship to the other labeled lipids derived from 3,4-dihydroxy[3-(3)H]butyl-1-phosphonate in vivo. Analysis of the other three labeled products revealed the tritium to be present on glycerol 3-phosphate and not intact phosphonate, indicating some metabolic degradation of the latter. Examination of cell components other than lipids revealed little incorporation of label, while a significant amount of tritium was found to be present in a distillable form, 3H2O. Experiments with mutants of E. coli lacking the known glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenases indicated that these enzymes are not responsible for the removal of tritium from from 3,4-dihydroxy[3-(3)H]butyl-1-phosphonate in vivo. Indirect evidence suggests that the inhibition of cell growth by this analogue is not due to its catabolic products.

The authors present the results of comparative study of the properties of experimental perfringens toxoids obtained from purified alpha-toxoids of different degrees of purity. Experimental toxoids proved to possess a greater immunogenicity than preparations obtained by detoxication of alpha-toxin under conditions of cultural fluid, the greater--the more the purity of alpha-toxin used for procuring the experimental toxoid. C1. perfringens alpha-toxin recovered as a result of two-stage alpha-toxin purification, including its primary concentration and fractionation on DEAE-cellulose under conditions of negative alpha-toxin sorption, changed during detoxication into toxoid whose immunogenicity exceeded that of manufactured preparations 3--4 fold. The toxoid was harmless and sorbed in a dose of 100 BU on 2--3 mg of aluminium hydroxide; stability of its antigenic properties and its yield was not less than those of manufactured toxoids. Perfringens toxoid prepared from highly purified alpha-toxoid was 10 times greater by immunogenicity than the manufactured preparation, and was sorbed on 1--2 mg of aluminium hydroxide.

The supernatant extracts of the chl A and chl B mutants of Escherichia coli K 12, the phospholipids of which are labeled by growth in 32 P or [2- 3H]glycerol media, contain 20 times more radioactivity than the supernatant extract of the wild-type strain grown under the same conditions. We have observed that, after complementation, 80% of the radioactivity previously contained by Extracts A and B is incorporated into reconstituted particles. The chromatography of 3H-labeled Extract B on DEAE-cellulose and followed by gel filtration of radioactive fractions on Sephadex G-200 has shown that the phospholipids of Extract B are only bound to soluble proteins and not to fragments of membranes; it can be assumed that they have been solubilized in the form of a lipid-protein complex by cell breakage. When Extracts A and B are treated by phospholipase C (phosphatidylcholine cholinephosphohydrolase, EC 3.1.4.3) before being mixed together, an inhibition of the reconstitution of nitrate reductase activity which is proportional to the phospholipase C concentration and the length of treatment is observed. The analysis of lipids and phospholipids of particles (Peak I, Peak II and Peak III) formed during complementation and reconstituted nitrate reductase shows that their phospholipid contents (phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylserine) and especially that of Peak II (d equals 1.18) are closely related to that of native particles from the wild-type strain. These results allow one to propose a hypothesis explaining the mechanism involved in complementation.
