Fructose-1,6-biphosphatase of the small intestine. Purification and comparison with liver and muscle fructose-1,6-bisphosphatases. 1978

H Mizunuma, and Y Tashima

The occurrence of specific fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase [D-fructose-1,6-bisphosphate 1-phosphohydrolase, EC 3.1.3.11] (Fru-1,6-P2ase) in the small intestine was confirmed. 1. Fru-1,6-P2ase was isolated from mouse small intestine by a simple method. The isolated enzyme preparation was an electrophoretically homogeneous protein. 2. The molecular weight and subunit molecular weight were 140,000 and 38,000, respectively. 3. The intestinal enzyme was electrophoretically distinct from the liver enzyme. 4. The kinetic properties of the purified intestinal enzyme were compared with those of the mouse liver and muscle enzymes. 5. Mouse intestinal and muscle Fru-1,6-P2ases hydrolyzed ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate in addition to fructose-1,6-bisphosphate and sedoheptulose-1,7-bisphosphate.
