Phosphodiesterase-phosphomonesterases from Fusarium moniliforme. Separation and properties of four isozymes. 1979

S Kanaya, and H Yoshida

Purified phosphodiesterase-phosphomonoesterase was found to be composed of four isozymes with different isoelectric points. These isozymes, phosphodiesterase-phosphomonoesterases 1-4, were separated from one another by repeated isoelectric focusing. Very little difference in amino acid composition, enzymic properties or circular dichroism spectra was detected among the isozymes. Far-ultraviolet circular dichroism spectra showed that the enzyme contained about 10% alpha-helix and 40% beta-structure. Phosphodiesterase-phosphomonesterase is a glycoprotein, because it was adsorbed on concanavalin A-Sepharose 4B and gave a band of carbohydrate coincident with that of protein or enzymic activity on polyacrylamide disc gel electrophoresis. Carbohydrate analyses revealed that the enzyme contained 37 micron of N-acetylglucosamine and 358 micron of mannose per mg of protein. The carbohydrate contents of the four isozymes were almost the same.
