Isolation and kinetic properties of 5'-nucleotidase from guinea-pig skeletal muscle.
5'-Nucleotidase (EC 3.1.3.5) has been solubilized and purified 1200-fold from guinea-pig skeletal muscle, to a specific activity of 40 U/mg protein. The purified enzyme yields a single protein band on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. Guinea-pig skeletal muscle 5'-nucleotidase is extremely sensitive to inhibition by nucleoside di- and triphosphates. The inhibition is of the competitive type, and can be reversed only by strong excess of Mg2+. Nucleoside diphosphates are more powerful inhibitors than nucleoside triphosphates. The Ki values for ADP and ATP are 0.036 and 0.28 microM, respectively. The purified enzyme does not require exogenous cations for maximal activity and is inhibited by EDTA. This inhibition is reversed by divalent cations. This indicates that the enzyme contains a tightly bound metal cation.
