  • Title: [Relation between Mg2+ activation and AMP inhibition of fructose-1,6-diphosphatase from rabbit skeletal muscles].
    Author: Nikulin IR, Beliaeva NF.
    Journal: Biokhimiia; 1987 Feb; 52(2):270-8. PubMed ID: 3032287.
    Abstract:
    It was shown that AMP, an allosteric inhibitor of fructose-1.6-bisphosphatase, decreases the apparent affinity of the enzyme for the activating cation, Mg2+, which is accompanied by a decrease of the kinetic cooperativity between the Mg2+-binding sites. In its turn, the Mg2+ increase diminishes the enzyme sensitivity to the inhibiting effect of AMP and decreases the cooperativity of the inhibitor binding. The heterotropic interactions between the allosteric inhibitor and activator binding centers are consistent with the predictions of the Monod-Wyman-Changeux model which involves two conformational states of the enzyme (of which one is catalytically inactive) differing in their affinity for the ligands. An increase in pH from 7.4 to 9.0 increases the enzyme affinity for Mg2+ and causes an equilibrium shift towards the catalytically active state of the enzyme.
