Modification of pig kidney fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase with 2,3-butanedione in borate buffer (pH 7.8) leads to the loss of the activation of the enzyme by monovalent cations, as well as to the loss of allosteric adenosine 5'-monophosphate (AMP) inhibition. In agreement with the results obtained for the butanedione modification of arginyl residues in other enzymes, the effects of modification can be reversed upon removal of excess butanedione and borate. Significant protection to the loss of K+ activation was afforded by the presence of the substrate fructose 1,6-bisphosphate, whereas AMP preferentially protected against the loss of AMP inhibition. The combination of both fructose 1,6-bisphosphate and AMP fully protected against the changes in enzyme properties on butanedione treatment. Under the latter conditions, one arginyl residue per mole of enzyme subunit was modified, whereas three arginyl residues were modified by butanedione under conditions leading to the loss of both potassium activation and AMP inhibition. Thus, the modification of two arginyl residues per subunit would appear to be responsible for the change in enzyme properties. The present results, as well as those of a previous report on the subject (Marcus, F. (1975), Biochemistry 14, 3916-3921) support the conclusion that one arginyl residue per subunit is essential for monovalent cation activation, and another arginyl residue is essential for AMP inhibition. A likely role of the latter residue could be its involvement in the binding of the phosphate group of AMP.

Homogeneous preparations of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase from mouse, man, rabbit, pig, and rat were tested as substrates for cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. Up to 1 mol of [32P]phosphate per mole enzyme subunit was incorporated into fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase from pig and rabbit liver, which should be compared with 2.6 mol of phosphate per mole enzyme subunit in the case of the rat liver enzyme. The phosphorylation of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase from the livers of man and mouse was negligible. Phosphorylation of pig and rabbit fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase decreased the apparent Km for fructose-1,6-bisphosphate, but in contrast to the case of the rat liver enzyme it did not change the inhibition constants for AMP and fructose-2,6-bisphosphate. The phosphorylation sites in rabbit and pig liver fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase were located close to the carboxyterminal of the polypeptide chains, since trypsin treatment of the phosphorylated enzyme quantitatively removed all of the protein-bound radioactivity without significantly altering the subunit molecular weight and with a maintained neutral pH optimum.

The effects of cyclic AMP-dependent phosphorylation on the structural properties of rat liver fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase were investigated by uv difference spectroscopy and circular dichroism. The incorporation of 4 mol of phosphate per mole of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase induces a significant increase in the alpha-helix content of the enzyme without affecting its spectrophotometric properties. The addition of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate or fructose 2,6-bisphosphate also affects the conformation of the enzyme. However, both the phosphorylated and the nonphosphorylated forms exhibit similar ligand-induced conformational changes. These results show that cyclic AMP-dependent phosphorylation of fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase induces a specific conformational change. They also suggest that this modification does not alter the interaction of the enzyme protein with fructose 1,6-bisphosphate and fructose 2,6-bisphosphate.

The ability of rabbit liver aldolase (D-fructose-1,6-bisphosphate D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphatate-lyase, EC 4.1.2.13) and rabbit liver fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (Fru-P2ase; D-fructose-1,6-bisphosphate 1-phosphohydrolase, EC 3.1.3.11) to partition into the gel phase of Ultrogel AcA 34 is decreased in a mixture of the two enzymes. Titration experiments indicate that a 1:1 complex is formed. The value for the distribution coefficient of the complex corresponds to a molecular mass of 300,000 daltons, the value expected for a dimer containing one mole of each enzyme protein. Complex formation was not observed when either liver enzyme was replaced by the corresponding isozyme from rabbit muscle. The susceptibility of liver Fru-P2ase to limited proteolysis by subtilisin was reduced in the presence of liver aldolase, but not when the latter was replaced by muscle aldolase, suggesting that the conformation of Fru-P2ase is altered in the complex. Limited proteolysis of liver aldolase abolishes its ability both to form the heterodimer and to protect Fru-P2ase from modification by subtilisin.

Phosphorylated fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase) was isolated from rabbit muscle in an SDS/PAGE homogeneous form. Its dephosphorylation with alkaline phosphatase revealed 2.8 moles of inorganic phosphate per mole of FBPase. The phosphorylated FBPase (P-FBPase) differs from the dephosphorylated enzyme in terms of its kinetic properties like K(m) and k(cat), which are two times higher for the phosphorylated FBPase, and in the affinity for aldolase, which is three times lower for the dephosphorylated enzyme. Dephosphorylated FBPase can be a substrate for protein kinase A and the amount of phosphate incorporated per FBPase monomer can reach 2-3 molecules. Since interaction of muscle aldolase with muscle FBPase results in desensitisation of the latter toward AMP inhibition (Rakus & Dzugaj, 2000, Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 275, 611-616), phosphorylation may be considered as a way of muscle FBPase activity regulation.

The kinetic parameters of the photosynthetic fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase isolated from Peltigera rufescens (Weis) Mudd. were measured on a seasonal basis and during a laboratory-induced temperature acclimation. Both the substrate affinity and Ea changed on a seasonal basis. During the summer, the Ea decreased from 91.8 to 62.3 kilojoules per mole. The K(m) fructose-1,6-bisphosphate measured at temperatures above 25 degrees C was also found to decrease by 50%. This seasonal change in K(m) can be induced by growing the lichen under appropriate conditions for 2 weeks, and is correlated to a change in the net photosynthetic rates. It is hypothesized that this change in fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase is related to the seasonal temperature acclimation process that has been previously reported in this species.
