- ArticleBock JL, Kowalsky A.Biochim Biophys Acta. 1978 Sep 11;526(1):135-46.31P nuclear magnetic resonance spectra and enzymatic activities are compared for alkaline phosphatase (orthophosphoric-monoester phosphohydrolase (alkaline optimum), EC 3.1.3.1) species with different zinc contents. The enzyme containing two Zn2+ per protein dimer exists in two forms; one, prepared by dialysis of native enzyme, has full enzymatic activity and a 31P magnetic resonance spectrum similar to but distinguishable from that of the native enzyme containing four or more Zn2+. The other form, prepared by restoring two Zn2+ to apoenzyme, has low enzymatic activity and a 31P magnetic resonance spectrum that indicates stoichiometric binding of phosphate, but otherwise altered properties. Reconstituted enzyme with four Zn2+ is similar to but distinguishable from native enzyme with four Zn2+. Chromatography on DEAE-cellulose can separate apoenzyme and enzyme containing two Zn2+ and suggests that the binding of a pair of Zn2+ is cooperative.
