title: [Effect of specific ligands on heat inactivation of muscle glycogen phosphorylase b].
abstract: It has been shown that the rate constant, k, for thermal inactivation of rabbit skeletal muscle glycogen phosphorylase b decreases as the enzyme concentration increases. This effect is interpreted within the framework of a kinetic model which includes two parallelly occurring processes, namely: phosphorylase b denaturation in solution and denaturation of the enzyme absorbed on test-tube walls. The contribution of the latter process increases with a decrease in the enzyme concentration. The protective effect of the allosteric activator (AMP), allosteric inhibitors (glucose 6-phosphate and FMN) and the competitive inhibitor (glucose) against heat denaturation of glycogen phosphorylase b has been demonstrated. Quantitative analysis of the dependence of the rate constant, k, on concentration of AMP, glucose 6-phosphate and FMN allows the calculation of microscopic constants for dissociation of phosphorylase b complexes with these ligands for the given experimental conditions as equal to 0.34, 0.50 and 0.30 mM, respectively. The S-shaped dependence of the rate constant of thermal inactivation on glucose concentration points to the existence of positive cooperative interactions between glucose-binding sites in the dimeric molecule of phosphorylase b (nH = 1.8).
