Popis: The catalytic subunit of the Ser/Thr protein phosphatase 1 (PP1 cat ) hydrolyses N -acetyl Arg-Arg-Ala-phosphoThr-Val-Ala ( K M =3.7 mM) in a reaction that is inhibited competitively by inorganic phosphate (P i , K i =1.6 mM) but unaffected by the product peptide alcohol at concentrations up to 3 mM. The enzyme does not catalyse the incorporation of 18 O-label from 18 O-labelled water into P i whether, or not, the product alcohol is present. The dephosphorylated product alcohol of phosphorylated histone, an alternative substrate for the enzyme, serves as a competitive inhibitor for phosphopeptide hydrolysis ( K i =60 μM) and co-mediates 18 O-label exchange into P i in a concentration-dependent manner ( K M =64 μM). These results indicate that hydrolysis occurs through the direct attack of an activated water molecule on the phosphate ester moiety of the substrate in a ternary complex mechanism.
