A scheme of interactions of Mg2+ ions and their 1:1 complex with PPi (PPiMg') with two forms of inorganic pyrophosphatase isolated from beef heart mitochondria has been deduced from the analysis of enzyme kinetics at pH varying from 5.6 to 8.5. The scheme implies the existence of two catalytically important metal-binding sites on the enzyme. The two enzyme forms differ in maximal velocity and affinity for the metal activator. The pH dependence of kinetic parameters suggests that the active form of the substrate is MgP2O2-7. Ca2+ ions strongly inhibit pyrophosphatase activity and the corresponding Hill coefficient is 1.5. Phosphate and ATP are weak inhibitors of pyrophosphatase of the competitive and noncompetitive type respectively. The results show that these forms of mitochondrial pyrophosphatase are similar to pyrophosphatases isolated from other sources. |
