Rabbit muscle pyruvate kinase. Amino- and carboxyl-terminal studies. 1976

M C Brummel, and D P Boaz, and M Flashner, and L D Stegink

Amino-terminal analysis of rabbit muscle pyruvate kinase (ATP:pyruvate 2-O-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.40) failed to detect the presence of any free amino-terminal residues. Acetyl group analysis demonstrated the presence of between 3.7 and 4.0 mol of acetyl groups per mol of enzyme. The acetylated amino-terminal residue was isolated from pronase digests of the enzyme and identified as N-acetylserine. Quantitative recovery experiments indicated that all acetyl residues are found at the amino termini. Carboxyl-terminal analyses using the tritium exchange method suggested the presence of a blocked carboxyl-terminal residue, supporting previous hydrazinolysis and carboxypeptidase studies.

D011770 Pyruvate Kinase ATP:pyruvate 2-O-phosphotransferase. A phosphotransferase that catalyzes reversibly the phosphorylation of pyruvate to phosphoenolpyruvate in the presence of ATP. It has four isozymes (L, R, M1, and M2). Deficiency of the enzyme results in hemolytic anemia. EC 2.7.1.40.
