The submitochondrial location of dinucleoside triphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.29), previously shown to be in part associated with mitochondria, has been studied in rat liver. The precipitability and latency of activity in organelle suspensions, and the profile of solubilization by digitonin, were like those of the matrix space marker glutamate dehydrogenase, and differed from those of other submitochondrial fractions. This, and the synthesis of diadenosine polyphosphates by mitochondrial aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases, suggest the occurrence of a pathway for the intramitochondrial turnover of diadenosine 5',5'''-P1,P3-triphosphate (Ap3A).

Rat liver and brain differ in the distribution pattern of the total hydrolytic activity on diadenosine 5',5"'-P1,P3-triphosphate (Ap3A) between the soluble and particulate fractions. The Ap3A-hydrolase activity in both the soluble and particulate liver fractions and in the brain soluble fraction had been previously studied in detail. We report now on the brain particulate fraction which, unlike liver, showed a low unspecific phosphodiesterase I-like (PDEaseI, EC 3.1.4.1) activity relative to the specific dinucleoside triphosphatase (Ap3Aase, EC 3.6.1.29). Two PDEaseI-like forms (PDEaseI-A and PDEaseI-B), with different apparent Mrs and kinetic properties, and two Ap3Aases (Ap3Aase-alpha and Ap3Aase-beta) were solubilized with 0.5% Triton X-100 from the particulate fraction. Ap3Aase-alpha resembled the cytosolic Ap3Aase (Ap3Aase-c), a known situation in liver. Comparative to Ap3Aase-alpha, Ap3Aase-beta showed a slightly higher Km (35 vs. 15 micron) and lower isoelectric point (5.25 vs. 5.45); Ap3Aase-beta was absent from the soluble fraction, and its recovery was unaffected by proteinase inhibitors, strongly arguing for distinct soluble and particulate turnover pathways for dinucleoside polyphosphates.

Two enzymatic activities that split diadenosine triphosphate have been reported in Escherichia coli: a specific Mg-dependent bis(5'-adenosyl) triphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.29) and the bis(5'-adenosyl) tetraphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.41). In addition to the activities of these two enzymes, a different enzyme activity that hydrolyzes dinucleoside polyphosphates is described. After purification and study of its molecular and kinetic properties, we concluded that it corresponded to the 5'-nucleotidase (EC 3.1.3.5) that has been described in E. coli. The enzyme was purified from sonic extracts and osmotic shock fluid. From sonic extracts, two isoforms were isolated by chromatography on ion-exchange Mono Q columns; they had a molecular mass of about 100 kilodaltons (kDa). From the osmotic shock fluid, a unique form of 52 kDa was recovered. Mild heating transformed the 100-kDa isoform to a 52-kDa form, with an increase in activity of about threefold. The existence of a 5'-nucleotidase inhibitor described previously, which associates with the enzyme and is not liberated in the osmotic shock fluid, may have been responsible for these results. The kinetic properties and substrate specificities of both forms (52 and 100 kDa) were almost identical. The enzyme, which is known to hydrolyze AMP and uridine-(5')-diphospho-(1)-alpha-D-glucose, but not adenosine-(5')-diphospho-(1)-alpha-D-glucose, was also able to split adenosine-(5')-diphospho-(5)-beta-D-ribose, ribose-5-phosphate, and dinucleoside polyphosphates [diadenosine 5',5'''-P1,P2-diphosphate,diadenosine 5',5'''-P1,P3-triphosphate, diadenosine 5',5'''-P1,P4-tetraphosphate, and bis(5'-guanosyl) triphosphate]. The effects of divalent cations and pH on the rate of the reaction with different substrates were studied.

Dinucleosidetriphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.29) is present in both the 37,000 g rat liver supernatant and precipitate (50 mU/g each fraction). These two activities show matching molecular weights, isoelectric points, substrate specificities, Km values, bivalent cation requirements and inhibition by zinc (II). The particulate triphosphatase and a residual dinucleosidetetraphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.17) are solubilized by freeze-thawing or by Triton X-100. Detergent treatment also extracts an unspecific phosphodiesterase I activity (EC 3.1.4.1) which also splits dinucleoside polyphosphates. The above findings suggest the occurrence of cytosolic and particulate degradative pathways for dinucleoside polyphosphates.

Rat liver dinucleoside triphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.29) is associated with sucrose-gradient purified mitochondria and can be extracted by freeze and thaw treatment. The proportion of mitochondrial dinucleoside triphosphatase approaches 50% of total liver enzyme. Evidence is also presented that 10% of total liver bis(5'-guanosyl)tetraphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.17) might be equally linked to mitochondria. Those data suggest that diadenosine 5',5'''-P1,P3-triphosphate, diadenosine 5',5'''-P1,P4-tetraphosphate, or other substrates of those enzymes, might be somehow related to mitochondria or mitochondrial function(s), although the occurrence of dinucleoside polyphosphates has not been reported in that organelle.

The formation of a complex between Zn(II) and beta-D-fructose 2,6-bisphosphate was shown because the latter compound: activated bis(5'-guanosyl)tetraphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.17) and dinucleoside triphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.29) only to the extent that they could be inhibited by Zn(II); increased the consumption of Zn(II) necessary to titrate to an end point a solution of the metallochromic indicator eriochrome black T; coeluted with Zn(II) in a gel filtration column capable of resolving them if unbound. Neither of those effects was shown by D-fructose 1,6-bisphosphate under the same conditions.

This article presents a fluorimetric study of the main properties of the enzymes dinucleoside tetraphosphate (asymmetrical) hydrolase or dinucleoside tetraphosphatase (Ap4Aase, EC 3.6.1.17) and dinucleoside triphosphate hydrolase or dinucleoside triphosphatase (Ap3Aase, EC 3.6.1.29), both present in adrenal medulla cytosolic extracts. Diethenoadenosine polyphosphates, epsilon-(ApnA), are used as artificial fluorogenic substrates. Ap4Aase exhibits a molecular mass around 20 kDa and neutral optimum pH (7.0-7.5). It requires Mg2+ and preferentially hydrolyzes substrates with four phosphate groups. Km for epsilon-(Ap4A) is 1.3 microM and Ki for Ap4A and Gp4G are 1 and 0.2 microM respectively. Km for Ap4A determined by HPLC is 1.6 microM. epsilon-(Ap5A) and epsilon-(Ap6A) are hydrolyzed at reduced rates. This enzyme is inhibited by Zn2+, F- and very strongly by Ap4 and epsilon-Ap4. Ca2+ cannot replace Mg2+, but behaves as inhibitor in its presence. The substrate analogs dinucleoside triphosphates Ap3A, G;3G, m7Gp3G and m7Gp3A and the periodate-oxidized nucleotides o-(Ap4A), o epsilon-(Ap4A), o-Ap4 and o epsilon-Ap4 behave as inhibitors. Ap3Aase exhibits a molecular mass around 30 kDa and neutral optimum pH (7.0-7.5). It requires Mg2+ or Ca2+, but retains a low measurable activity around 10% in the absence of these divalent cations. It only hydrolyzes substrates with three phosphate groups. Km for epsilon-(Ap3A) is 11 microM and Ki for Ap3A and Gp3G are 20 and 22 microM, respectively. Km for Ap3A determined by HPLC is 16 microM. m7Gp3G and m7Gp3A are also good substrates for triphosphatase.

A new member of the FHIT protein family, designated HIT-45, has been identified in the African trypanosome Trypanosoma brucei. Recombinant HIT-45 proteins were purified from trypanosomal and bacterial protein expression systems and analyzed for substrate specificity using various dinucleoside polyphosphates, including those that contain the 5'-mRNA cap, i.e., m(7)GMP. This enzyme exhibited typical dinucleoside triphosphatase activity (EC 3.6.1.29), having its highest specificity for diadenosine triphosphate (ApppA). However, the trypanosome enzyme contains a unique amino-terminal extension, and hydrolysis of cap dinucleotides with monomethylated guanosine or dimethylated guanosine always yielded m(7)GMP (or m(2,7)GMP) as one of the reaction products. Interestingly, m(7)Gpppm(3)(N6, N6, 2'O)A was preferred among the methylated substrates. This hypermethylated dinucleotide is unique to trypanosomes and may be an intermediate in the decay of cap 4, i.e., m(7)Gpppm(3)(N6, N6, 2'O)Apm(2'O)Apm(2'O)Cpm(2)(N3, 2'O)U, that occurs in these organisms.
