Abstract：
:The effect of bis-(p-nitrophenyl)phosphate on various glycosyltransferases involved in protein glycosylation (sialyl-, fucosyl-, galactosyl-, mannosyl- and glucosyltransferases) have been studied using crude enzyme preparations solubilized from rat spleen lymphocytes. Bis-(p-nitrophenyl)phosphate appears as a common inhibitor for every glycosyltransferase reaction utilizing sugar nucleotides as direct donors. In most cases 10 mM inhibitor is sufficient to obtain a 90 per cent inhibition. Kinetic studies achieved with a purified galactosyltransferase preparation reveal that bis-(p-nitrophenyl)phosphate exerts a competitive inhibition towards UDP-galactose binding. Concerning membrane-bound enzymes, the interaction of bis-(p-nitrophenyl)phosphate depends on its accessibility to the enzyme active site. This is shown by the different effect obtained with two UDP-Glc utilizing membrane-bound enzymes : UDP-Glc : phospho-dolichyl glucosyltransferase and UDP-Glc : ceramide glucosyltransferase : the first one not being affected but the second one being markedly inhibited under the same condition, although both are inhibited when the membrane environment is disturbed by detergent. Bis-(p-nitrophenyl)phosphate appears to be a tool to study membrane topology of glycosyltransferases.
