Inosine 5'-monophosphate dehydrogenase of Escherichia coli. Purification by affinity chromatography, subunit structure and inhibition by guanosine 5'-monophosphate.

Escherichia coli IMP dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.14) was purified by affinity chromatography on immobilized nucleotides. The enzyme binds to agarose-bound 8-(6-aminohexyl)-AMP, N6-(6-aminohexyl)-AMP and 8-(8-amino-octyl)-IMP but not to immobilized NAD+ or Cibacron Blue F3G-A. AMP proved to be an effective eluent. A large-scale purification scheme in which 8-(6-aminohexyl)-AMP-agarose was used resulted in a homogeneous preparation of IMP dehydrogenase. The enzyme was also purified by immunoprecipitation with monospecific antisera. Sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis, N-terminal amino acid analysis and tryptic 'finger-printing' demonstrated that IMP dehydrogenase comprises identical subunits of mol.wt. 58000. Trypsin and Pronase cleave the 58000-mol.wt. subunit into peptides of mol.wts. 42000 and 14000, with a concomitant decrease in enzyme activity. These observations rationalize much of the contradictory data on the subunit composition of the enzyme found in the literature. GMP appears to be a competitive inhibitor with respect to IMP, with no evidence for regulatory behaviour being found. The two purification procedures were also used to purify inactive mutant enzymes from guaB mutant strains of E. coli.

Chicken liver amidophosphoribosyltransferase. Ligand-induced alterations in molecular properties.

A homogeneous amidophosphoribosyltransferase (EC 2.4.2.14) preparation, which was sensitive to purine nucleotide inhibitors, was obtained from chicken liver. From the result of sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the subunit weight was estimated to be approximately 58 000. In Tris-HCl buffer, the predominant form of the enzyme had an S20,w of 6.5, Strokes radius of 40 A, and estimated molecular weight of 110 000. Incubation with 5-phosphoribosyl 1-pyrophosphate or Pi resulted in an increase in the S20,w to 9.1--9.5, Strokes radius 50 A, and estimated molecular weight to 200 000. Incubation of the large form with AMP led to a decrease in the molecular wight of the enzyme. It is concluded that chicken liver amidophosphoribosyltransferase is an allosteric protein whose activity is regulated by a series of conformational changes induced by a number of ligands.
