The3H–H exchange of chicken muscle and rabbit muscle triose phosphate isomerases was studied. Their behaviour was mostly very similar. ‘Exchange-in’ (acquisition of radioactivity when protein was incubated in3H2O) was measured at 37°C and at pH7.5, and the rates of exchange of the native and liganded enzymes were compared. Inhibitors and substrates retarded exchange, substrates showing the most marked effect; structural rearrangements in the enzyme may thus play some part in catalysis. The inhibitor phosphoglycollate affected the rabbit enzyme, but had little or no effect on the chicken enzyme. ‘Exchange-out’ (loss of radioactivity from protein previously labelled by incubation in3H2O) was measured by hollow-fibre dialysis. When ligand was removed during the course of dialysis (by replacing buffer that contained ligand with buffer that lacked ligand) there was a prompt decrease in the number of labelled H atoms of the protein. Analysis of the curves provides some information about the number and half-lives of the responsive H atoms. Ligands decrease the motility of the protein and affect about one-fifth of the chain. Low concentrations of glycerol 3-phosphate have an effect that is greater than expected.

Permanganate Oxidation

2-Phosphotartronate has been synthesized by permanganate oxidation of glycerol 2-phosphate and has been tested as an inhibitor of five glycolytic enzymes that bind phosphoglycerate or phosphoglycollate. Competitive inhibition of rabbit muscle phosphoglycerate mutase, enolase and pyruvate kinase was observed. Triose phosphate isomerase and 3-phosphoglycerate kinase were not inhibited.

1. The nature of the subunits in rabbit muscle triose phosphate isomerase has been investigated. 2. Amino acid analyses show that there are five cysteine residues and two methionine residues/subunit. 3. The amino acid sequences around the cysteine residues have been determined; these account for about 75 residues. 4. Cleavage at the methionine residues with cyanogen bromide gave three fragments. 5. These results show that the subunits correspond to polypeptide chains, containing about 230 amino acid residues. The chains in triose phosphate isomerase seem to be shorter than those of other glycolytic enzymes.

Polypeptide Chains

1. The peptides obtained by tryptic digestion of S-[14C]carboxymethylated rabbit muscle triose phosphate isomerase have been studied. 2. The first step in the fractionation of the tryptic digest was gel filtration on coupled columns of Sephadex G-25 and G-50. Further fractionation was carried out by paper electrophoresis and paper chromatography. 3. The digest contained 26 peptides and three free amino acids. The sizes of the peptides ranged from two to 29 residues. 4. The sequences of the peptides have been determined. 5. The length of the polypeptide chains is about 250 amino acid residues. 6. The variant sequences encountered were due to partial deamidation; this may be one of the reasons for multiple forms of the enzyme. 7. The chicken and rabbit enzymes are compared. 8. Detailed evidence for the sequences of the tryptic peptides has been deposited as Supplementary Publication SUP 50024 at the British Library, Lending Division (formerly the National Lending Library for Science and Technology), Boston Spa, Yorks.
