Effect of Mg2, ATP and some analogs on phosphorylase phosphatase from adrenal cortex.
The effect of Mg2, ATP and some of its analogs was studied on the spontaneously active and the ATP-Mg-dependent forms of phosphorylase phosphatase extracted from adrenal cortex. Inhibition of the spontaneously active form was observed with Mg2 (Ki - 9mM), ATP (Ki = 9micronM), 2'-doxy-ATP (Ki = 8 micronM), AtetraP (Ki = 9 micronM), AMP(CH2)PP (Ki = 11 micronM), ADP(CH2)P (Ki = 19 micronM), ADP(NH)P (Ki = 16micronM) and ADP (Ki = 25micronM). Activation of the ATP-Mg-dependent form was obtained with Mg2 (Ka = 0.55mM) (to a lower extent) and with ATP (Ka = 2micronM), 2'-deoxy-ATP (Ka = 6micronM) or AtetraP (Ka = 15micronM) in the presence of 0.5mM Mg2. Activation with AMP(CH2)PP was only observed in the presence of high concentrations (5mM) of Mg2 (Ka = 13micronM). No activation at all was observed with ADP(CH2)P or ADP(NH)P. Even though the activation of the ATP-Mg-dependent form does not seem to involve a kinase reaction, the stimulation by ATP or its analogs is rather specific, since it does not occur with analogs in which a methylene group or a nitrogen is substituted for the oxygen between the beta- and gamma-phosphates.
