The isolation and partial characterization of diphosphoglycerate mutase from human erythrocytes

Abstract: Diphosphoglycerate mutase has been purified to homogeneity from outdated human erythrocytes. The native enzyme has a molecular weight of 57 000 as determined by equilibrium centrifugation and exclusion chromatography. Disc gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate yields a single protein band with a molecular weight of about 26 500, indicating that diphosphoglycerate mutase is comprised of two subunits of similar mass. The enzyme exhibits the following intrinsic activities: diphosphoglycera… Show more

“…One of these enzymes is the 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate synthasephosphatase or 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate mutase (EC 5.4.2.4), which is a homodimer of a subunit that possesses great homology with PGM subunits (Sasaki et al, 1975;Kappel and Hass, 1976;Sasaki et al, 1976;Narita et al, 1979). The other two enzyme proteins are heterodimers resulting from the combination of a BPGM subunit with a PGM subunit either type M or type B Pons et al, 1985a).…”

“…(7,8). The trifunctional enzyme has been obtained in a purified form by the use of chromatographic techniques (9,10). This enzyme presents a single electrophoretic band (6) and represents one of the three molecular forms of erythrocyte MPGM (8).…”

“…The ratio between the activities of 2,3-P,glycerate phosphatase and 2,3-P,glycerate mutase were the same in both fractions. These data are interpreted as demonstrating that the 2,3-P2-glycerate phosphatase-mutase of the day-old chick erythrocyte possesses inherent 3-Pglycerate mutase activity as has been shown both for the enzyme from human erythrocytes purified to homogeneity [4,5] and that from equine erythrocytes [6].…”

“…The precipitate formed at 80% saturation had a ratio of 3-Pglycerate mutase : 2,3-P2glycerate mutase activities of 1.3, suggesting a small contamination with one of the other isozymes of 3-Pglycerate mutase in this precipitate. Kappel and Hass [5] reported that 3-Pglycerate mutase of human erythrocytes precipitates at a higher ammonium sulfate concentration than does 2,3-P,-glycerate mutase. Sasaki et al [4] found that their most highly purified 2,3-P2glycerate phosphatase-mutase preparation contained equal amounts of 2,3-P2glycer-ate mutase and 3-P glycerate mutase activities although Kappel and Hass [5] and Rose and Whalen [2] reported considerably lower 3-f glycerate mutase activity in their most highly purified preparations.…”
