Hydrolysis Of

The activity of the pyrophosphatase which catalyzes the hydrolysis of inorganic pyrophosphate in the erythrocyte of the human, the rabbit, and the chicken is confined entirely to the cytoplasm of the cell. Following preincubation, the enzyme activity in the human erythrocyte is diminished, but pre-incubation in the presence of cysteine or glutathione prevents the diminution of the enzyme activity. Aging of the hemolyzate of the human erythrocytes results in a marked loss of the inorganic pyrophosphatase activity. The diminished activity can be restored by the addition of cysteine or glutathione to the reaction mixture; but after the hemolyzate has aged for five or six days at 5 °C, the loss in the enzyme activity can no longer be restored with these reagents. Fluoride and calcium ions inhibit the activity of the enzyme, while magnesium ions are essential for its activity. Calcium is a noncompetitive inhibitor, while the inhibition by fluoride is of a "quadratic" nature. If a constant ratio of magnesium to pyrophosphate is maintained, the quadratic inhibition can be converted to the "uncompetitive" type of inhibition.

Alkaline Activity

The activities of inorganic pyrophosphatases were determined in developing and senescing leaf tissues as indicators of biosynthetic activity. The level of alkaline inorganic pyrophosphatase varied with leaf age and leaf position on the plant. In younger plants alkaline inorganic pyrophosphatase increased up the plant to a maximum and then decreased with leaf proximity to the apex. In older plants the enzymatic activity decreased in the lower leaves and the maximum level occurred in leaves closer to the apex. Retardation of leaf senescence with benzyladenine maintained the high levels of enzyme activity. In cucumber plants removal of the shoot at any time before cotyledon death rejuvenated the cotyledons leading to excessive growth, regreening, and dramatic increases in alkaline inorganic pyrophosphatase. Alkaline inorganic pyrophosphatase activity correlated highly with 14C-leucine incorporation into protein of bean leaf discs, supporting the view that this enzyme is involved in making biosynthetic pathways irreversibly anabolic. Acid inorganic pyrophosphatase activity was not proportional to the alkaline activity, suggesting that two separate enzymatic proteins are being assayed. It is concluded that the level of alkaline inorganic pyrophosphatase can be used to indicate which plant parts have high biosynthetic capacity. Also, delayed senescence of leaves or cotyledons, with benzyladenine or apex excision, is associated with maintained biosynthesis.
