Bisphosphoglyceromutase and 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate phosphatase activities responsible for 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate metabolsim in human red cells are displayed by the same enzyme protein which has phosphoglyceromutase activity [Sasaki, R., et al. (1975) Eur J. Biochem. 50, 581-593]. This enzyme was subjected to chemical modification by trinitrobenzenesulfonate. The three enzyme activities were inactivated by trinitrobenzenesulfonate at the same rate. The sulfhydryl content of the enzyme was unchanged during trinitrophenylation, indicating that derivatization was through the amino group. Trinitrophenylation of about one amino group per mole of the enzyme resulted in complete loss of the three activities. Both 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate and 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate inhibited trinitrophenylation and effectively protected the enzyme from inactivation. Although monophosphoglycerates did not show any protective effect at concentrations which should be adequate based upon their kinetic constants, they were protective at higher concentrations. Inactivation by trinitrophenylation was an apparent first-order reaction. The dissociation constant of the enzyme - 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate complex was determined by analyzing the first-order reaction on the assumption that the protective effect of 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate was due to competition with trinitrobenzenesulfonate. The dissociation constant was in good agreement with kinetic constants of 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate in the enzyme reactions, which indicated that 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate did indeed exert its protective effect through competition with trinitrobenzenesulfonate for an amino group of the enzyme. The protective effect of monophosphoglycerates could be rationalized with kinetic evidence that 2-phosphoglycerate at high concentrations interacts with the 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate binding site. These results indicate that the enzyme exhibits the three enzyme activities at a common active site at which one amino group essential for binding of bisphosphoglycerates is located. Based on the multifunctional properties of this enzyme, a possible mechanism was discussed for regulation of 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate metabolism in human red cells.

To examine the role of lysyl residues in the activity of the enzyme, phosphoglyceromutase (PGM) from chicken breast muscle was chemically modified with trinitrobenzenesulfonate (TNBS) and pyridoxal 5'-phosphate. Trinitrophenylation resulted in modification of about nine lysines per mole of PGM with almost complete activity loss. Substrate (3-PGA) offered some protection to TNBS inactivation but cofactor (2,3-DPGA) did not. Reduction of the Schiff's base complex between pyridoxal 5'-phosphate and PGM gave irreversible inactivation of the enzyme. Inactivation was due to incorporation of 1 mol of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate per mole of PGM dimer through the epsilon-amino group of a lysyl residue. The effect of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate was specific for intact native enzyme and reaction with only one lysine per dimer was not due to induced conformational changes nor to dissociation of the reacted enzyme. 3-PGA prevented much of the reaction with pyridoxal 5'-phosphate with preservation of 70% of the activity and was a competitive inhibitor of the active site directed reagent. Cofactor (2,3-DPGA) acting noncompetitively, reduced the rate at which inactivation occurred with pyridoxal 5'-phosphate. Incorporation of 2,3-[32P]DPGA into PGM irreversibly inactivated with pyridoxal 5'-phosphate and NaBH4 was incomplete indicating hindrance to phosphorylation in the modified enzyme. The results indicate that a lysyl residue is located at or near the active site of PGM and that it is probably involved in the binding of 3-PGA.

Inactivation of yeast phosphoglyceromutase (tetramer) with 1,2-cyclohexanedione correlates with the modification of six arginyl residues per mole of the enzyme. Protection experiments using 3-phosphoglycerate suggest that four arginyl residues (one residue per subunit) are involved in the binding of the substrate to the enzyme. The modified enzyme reversibly regained its activity upon incubation with hydroxylamine. The reactivity of lysyl residues which have been shown to be involved in the active site is markedly reduced in the enzyme inactivated with 1,2-cyclohexanedione, indicating that the lysyl and arginyl residues are in close proximity in the active site.

1. High-voltage paper-electrophoresis methods have been used for the separation of (32)P-labelled phosphoesters. 2. Evidence is presented which indicates that (32)P-labelled phosphopeptides, obtained after acid hydrolysis of phosphoglyceromutase incubated with impure 2,3-di[(32)P]phosphoglycerate, are derived from phosphoglucomutase contamination. 3. The hydrolysis of 2,3-di[(32)P]phosphoglycerate by phosphoglyceromutase has been studied. After an apparent instantaneous hydrolysis of 1 mole of coenzyme/mole of enzyme the reaction proceeds at a very low rate. 4. This hydrolysis seems to be due to the destruction of an enzyme-coenzyme complex. The proportions of the decomposition products of the complex vary according to further handling (pH of ionophoresis). 5. The inorganic [(32)P]phosphate produced by the hydrolysis of the complex and the inorganic [(32)P]phosphate produced by the slow phosphatase activity can be differentiated by the ability of the former to be incorporated into non-radioactive substrate before enzyme denaturation. 6. The effect of enzyme concentration on the stoicheiometry of the slow phosphatase hydrolysis of the diphosphoglycerate is described and this suggests that it may occur via two independent reactions, one of them being the decomposition of the enzyme-coenzyme complex on standing.
