Evidence for a periplasmic location in Comamonas terrigena of the inducible tyrosine sulfate sulfohydrolase.
The location of the inducible and constitutive forms of tyrosine sulfate sulfohydrolase in Comamonas terrigena was investigated by subjecting resting cells to osmotic shock and to treatment with lysozyme in the presence of EDTA. The bulk of this enzyme present in induced cells was released by these procedures, suggesting that the induced form is cell wall associated. The constitutive form present in noninduced cells was not released under these conditions. Evidence was also presented which suggests that SO4(2-)release by intact cells during exposure to tyrosine sulfate was primarily due to the action of the inducible form of the enzyme.
