Phosphofructokinase in the mantle of the sea mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis Lmk.

Abstract: Phosphofructokinase (PFK) from the mantle of Mytilus galloprovincialis Lmk. was purified 302-fold with a yield of 27%. The enzyme proved to be a 340,000-dalton oligomer comprising four identical 85,000-dalton subunits.Like other phosphofructokinases, the enzyme behaved cooperatively with fructose 6-phosphate and was inhibited by high concentrations of ATP.The fall in pH value produces a decrease of enzyme affinity for Fru 6-P and for the activator AMP, together with a greater inhibition by ATP.AMP, cyclic AMP,… Show more

“…Auxiliary enzymes were desalted as described (3). After two minutes, the reaction was started by the addition of 5-10 ~1 of purified phosphofructokinase, and the activity was determined by measuring the linear decrease in absorbance at 340 nm using a Philips PU 8700 spectrophotometer.…”

“…However, the enzyme from the mollusc is not affected by a number of classic mammalian PFK modulators, such Correpondence to: J.A. Villamarin (3,4). In addition to its allosteric regulation, phosphofructokinase from mussel mantle tissue can be phosphorylated in vitro by cAMP-dependent protein kinase (cAPK) from bovine heart, which notably alters its kinetic and regulatory properties (5).…”
