Protein inhibitors of phosphorylase phosphatase and cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase from rabbit skeleta muscle.

A heat-and acid-stable protein inhibitor of phosphorylase phosphatase is present in a highly purified preparation of protein inhibitor of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase from rabbit skeletal muscle. Although these two inhibitors have strikingly similar properties to each other, such as sensitivity to trypsin and behavior on gel permeation chromatography, they can be separated by polyacrylamide disc gel electrophoresis. This indicates that the phosphatase-inhibitory and kinase-inhibitory activities reside with different protein species. The inhibition of both the enzymes is not altered by incubating the inhibitor preparation with a general phosphoprotein phosphatase, with phosvitin kinase, or with cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. Inhibition of phosphorylase phosphatase is of a non-competitive type supporting the idea that the phosphatase inhibitor is not an alternative substrate for the enzyme. Inhibition of phosphatase activity is selective in that it does no occur when phosphorylated histone or phosphorylated protamine are used as substrates.

Inhibition of rabbit skeletal muscle phosphorylase phosphatase by spermine.

The effect of three naturally occurring polyamines (putrescine, spermidine, and spermine) on the activity of rabbit skeletal muscle phosphorylase phosphatase was investigated. Only spermine significantly inhibited the enzyme. The mode of inhibition (ki value of 0.3 mM) of the phosphatase by spermine appears to be different from that caused by divalent metal ions or by other organic cations, such as arginine and lysine esters, since it is noncompetitive with respect to the substrate, phosphorylase a.
