The Use of Alternative Substrates in the Study of Phosphorylase Phosphatase and Phosphorylase Kinase

  • Conference paper
Metabolic Interconversion of Enzymes 1973

Abstract

Theoretical considerations are presented for the influence of a modifier on enzyme reactions that utilize other enzymes as substrates. Activation of phosphorylase phosphatase and inhibition of phosphorylase kinase by glucose-6-P is examined. No effect of glucose-6-P could be found on alternative peptide substrates, so the effect of glucose-6-P is on the protein substrate, phosphorylase. Initial rate studies show that glucose-6-P activates phosphorylase phosphatase by increasing the VM and inhibits phosphorylase kinase by altering the binding of phosphorylase b. A comparison is given of the action of phosphorylase phosphatase on phosphorylase a and peptide substrates in attempt to determine what factors are important in substrate recognition. A preliminary study of phosphorylase kinase with peptide substrates is also given.
