Alkaline phosphatase of Thiobacillus thioparus. Partial purification and properties of the enzyme.

Abstract:

:Soluble alkaline phosphatase from Thiobacillus thioparus cells was purified about 230-fold. The enzyme had a mol. wt. of 50 000 daltons, optimum pH at 10.5, and was heat-resistant in the presence of diethanolamine. Polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis demonstrated contamination of the preparation with inactive proteins and the presence of two active bands. The enzyme activity was distinctly stimulated by increasing concentrations of Tris or diethanolamine. In the presence of glycine, 1 mM-Zn2+ enhanced the enzyme activity; in Tris or diethanolamine buffers the activity was stimulated by 1 mM-Mg2+ whereas Zn2+ had a strong inhibitory effect. Glycine at concentrations exceeding 25 mM also inhibited the enzyme. Specificity of the enzyme is fairly broad.

  • Photosynthesis in detached rye leaves at normal and low oxygen concentration. II. Incorporation of 14CO2 into amino acids.

    abstract::The pools of Arg, Gly, His, Ile, Ser, Glu, Leu, Val and Asp were lower during photosynthesis at 1% O2 concentration. At the same time specific radioactivity of a number of amino acids--following 14CO2 incorporation--was different than that at atmospheric O2 concentration. This is probably due to the inhibition of the ...
