Partial purification and characterization of the soluble phosphatidate phosphohydrolase of rat liver. 1984

S C Butterwith, and R Hopewell, and D N Brindley

A method is described by which the Mg2+-stimulated phosphatidate phosphohydrolase can be purified from the soluble fraction of liver from ethanol-treated rats. The increase in specific activity was about 416-fold. This involved purification by adsorption on calcium phosphate, chromatography on DE-52 DEAE-cellulose, separation on Ultrogel AcA-34 and chromatography on CM-Sepharose 6B. The effects of phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidate and Mg2+, Mn2+ and Zn2+ on the activity are described. Inhibitor studies indicate that the phosphohydrolase contains functional thiol groups and arginine residues.
