Purification and Some Properties of Rabbit Skeletal Muscle Phosphofructokinase.
In spite of an abundant literature (1-15) indicating that phosphofructokinasel plays a key role in the regulation of carbohydrate metabolism, few attempts have been made to purify the enzyme (4, 17, 18) since the subject of P-fructokinase was last reviewed (19). The apparent instability of the enzyme makes purification difficult, and a number of suggestions have been offered to explain this pro...
متن کاملRabbit Skeletal Muscle Glycogen
Glycogen in its particulate beta-form is localized in the sarcoplasm close to the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Some particles are in close contact with the membranes, on the outer side of the vesicles. The mild technique of differential precipitation-centrifugation has been adapted to the preparation of glycogen from adult skeletal muscle. A preliminary low-speed centrifugation which eliminates the ...
متن کاملStructure of the rabbit fast-twitch skeletal muscle calsequestrin gene.
We have isolated two overlapping 17-kilobase (kb) genomic clones which, together, encode the rabbit fast-twitch skeletal muscle calsequestrin. The calsequestrin gene is 8.6 kb in length and consists of 11 exons. S1 nuclease protection and primer extension analyses position the transcription initiation site 191 nucleotides upstream of the translation initiation codon. The 5'-flanking sequence co...
متن کاملCrystallographic studies on the structure and catalytic activity of pyruvate kinase from skeletal muscle.
Pyruvate kinase (PK; EC 2.7. I .40) is found in all cells and tissues during glycolysis, and is of particular importance for controlling the flux from fructose-I ,6-bisphosphate through to pyruvate. It catalyses the conversion of phosphoenolpyruvate into pyruvate by the addition of a proton and the loss of a phospho group which is transferred to ADP. The reaction is essentially irreversible in ...
متن کاملRabbit liver phosphofructokinase. Comparison of some properties with those of muscle phosphofructokinase.
A relatively simple procedure was devised for the purification of phosphofructokinase from rabbit liver extracts. The enzyme was purified more than 2600-fold with a yield of close to 50%. Liver phosphofructokinase migrates faster on zone electrophoresis than rabbit skeletal muscle phosphofructokinase. It also differs from muscle enzyme in stability, molecular weight, and kinetic properties. The...
