Current information is reviewed on the mechanism of secretion in small intestine, including how it is altered by cyclic 3',5'-adenosine monophosphate and on the structures and properties of cholera and both heat-labile and heat-stable Escherichia coli enterotoxins. Two separate active ion transport processes are altered by cyclic 3',5'-adenosine monophosphate: 1) coupled absorption of NaCl is inhibited in villus cells and 2) active anion secretion is stimulated, probably in crypt cells. Cholera and heat-labile E. coli toxins exert their secretory effect by stimulating intestinal mucosal adenylate cyclase. This stimulation results from the A1 subunit catalyzed transfer of adenosine diphosphate ribose from NAD to a membrane-bound guanosine triphosphatase, thereby inhibiting the enzyme, which normally represses adenylate cyclase. Heat-stable E. coli enterotoxin stimulates intestinal mucosal guanylate cyclase, which appears to be the basis for its enterotoxicity.

Three distinct enzymes hydrolyzing either ApppA or AppppA, or both, were separated and purified from yellow lupin seed extracts. Two of the enzymes were purified to homogeneity. These enzymes differ greatly in their catalytic and physical properties. One hydrolase, with a native molecular weight of 41,000, exhibits broad pH (from 5-8) optimum for activity, requires Mg2+ for activity, is inhibited by zinc ions (I0.5 = 25 microM) and hydrolyses ApppA (V = 1), ApppC (V = 0.38), ApppG (V = 0.2), and ribose(5')pppA (V = 0.2). The enzyme exhibits much lower activity with AppppA (V = 0.1), and ApppppA, AppppppA, ppppA, and ATP are hydrolyzed 25- to 100-fold slower then ApppA. ADP was always one of the products of the reactions catalyzed by the enzyme. AppA, NAD, NADP, FAD, cAMP, and p-nitrophenyl-thymidine 5'-phosphate were not hydrolyzed by the enzyme. The enzyme is diadenosine 5',5"'-P1, P3-triphosphatase. The second hydrolase, composed of one polypeptide chain of a molecular weight 18,000-18,500, exhibits optimal activity in the pH range from 7.5-9, requires Mg2+ for activity, is inhibited by calcium ions (I0.5 for calcium depends on the concentration of Mg2+ and is 35-180 microM in the presence of 0.5-10 mM Mg2+, respectively), and hydrolyzes AppppA (V = 1, Km = 1 microM), ApppppA (V = 0.42, Km = 1.8 microM), AppppppA (V = 0.34), AppppU (V = 0.73), AppppC (V = 0.67), AppppG (V = 0.27), and ppppA. ATP was always one of the products of the reactions catalyzed by the enzyme. Dinucleoside di- and triphosphates, ATP, cAMP, and p-nitrophenylthymidine 5'-phosphate were not hydrolyzed by the enzyme. This enzyme is diadenosine 5',5"'-P1,P4-tetraphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.17). The third hydrolase, composed of one polypeptide chain of a molecular weight of 56,000, exhibits maximal activity at pH 9-10.5, does not require Mg2+ ions for activity, is inhibited neither by divalent cations (Mg2+, Ca2+, Zn2+, Co2+, Mn2+, or Ni2+) nor by EDTA, and uses as substrates all compounds which are substrates for the diadenosine 5',5"'-P1,P3-triphosphatase and diadenosine 5',5"'-P1,P4-tetraphosphatase. In addition, the enzyme hydrolyzes p-nitrophenyl-thymidine 5'-phosphate, p-nitrophenylthymidine 3'-phosphate, bis-p-nitrophenylphosphate, ADP, AppA, NAD, NADP, and FAD, but not cAMP. With the exception of p-nitrophenylphosphate derivatives all other substrates of the enzyme yield AMP as one of the products of hydrolysis. This enzyme has a specificity similar to that of phosphodiesterases (EC 3.1.4.1) from other sources. With the lupin phosphodiesterase, ApppA (V = 1, Km = 2.2 microM) and AppppA (V = 1, Km = 2.0 microM) are better substrates than NAD (V = 0.8, Km = 9.6 microM), AppA (V = 0.4), ApppppA (V = 0.6), and AppppppA (V = 0.34).

Autotaxin (ATX) is an extracellular enzyme and an autocrine motility factor that stimulates pertussis toxin-sensitive chemotaxis in human melanoma cells at picomolar to nanomolar concentrations. This 125-kDa glycoprotein contains a peptide sequence identified as the catalytic site in type I alkaline phosphodiesterases (PDEs), and it possesses 5'-nucleotide PDE (EC 3.1.4.1) activity (Stracke, M. L., Krutzsch, H. C., Unsworth, E. J., Arestad, A., Cioce, V., Schiffmann, E., and Liotta, L. (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 267, 2524-2529; Murata, J., Lee, H. Y., Clair, T., Krutsch, H. C., Arestad, A. A., Sobel, M. E., Liotta, L. A., and Stracke, M. L. (1994) J. Biol. Chem. 269, 30479-30484). ATX binds ATP and is phosphorylated only on threonine. Thr210 at the PDE active site of ATX is required for phosphorylation, 5'-nucleotide PDE, and motility-stimulating activities (Lee, H. Y., Clair, T., Mulvaney, P. T., Woodhouse, E. C., Aznavoorian, S., Liotta, L. A., and Stracke, M. L. (1996) J. Biol. Chem. 271, 24408-24412). In this article we report that the phosphorylation of ATX is a transient event, being stable at 0 degrees C but unstable at 37 degrees C, and that ATX has adenosine-5'-triphosphatase (ATPase; EC 3.6.1.3) and ATP pyrophosphatase (EC 3.6.1.8) activities. Thus ATX catalyzes the hydrolysis of the phosphodiester bond on either side of the beta-phosphate of ATP. ATX also catalyzes the hydrolysis of GTP to GDP and GMP, of either AMP or PPi to Pi, and the hydrolysis of NAD to AMP, and each of these substrates can serve as a phosphate donor in the phosphorylation of ATX. ATX possesses no detectable protein kinase activity toward histone, myelin basic protein, or casein. These results lead to the proposal that ATX is capable of at least two alternative reaction mechanisms, threonine (T-type) ATPase and 5'-nucleotide PDE/ATP pyrophosphatase, with a common site (Thr210) for the formation of covalently bound reaction intermediates threonine phosphate and threonine adenylate, respectively.
