ABSTRACT
To enhance our understanding of the control of archaeal carbon central metabolism, a detailed analysis of the regulation mechanisms of both fructose1,6-bisphosphatase (FruBPase) and ADP-phosphofructokinase-1 (ADP-PFK1) was carried out in the methanogen Methanosarcina acetivorans. No correlations were found among the transcript levels of the MA_1152 and MA_3563 (frubpase type II and pfk1) genes, the FruBPase and ADP-PFK1 activities, and their protein contents. The kinetics of the recombinant FruBPase II and ADP-PFK1 were hyperbolic and showed simple mixed-type inhibition by AMP and ATP, respectively. Under physiological metabolite concentrations, the FruBPase II and ADP-PFK1 activities were strongly modulated by their inhibitors. To assess whether these enzymes were also regulated by a phosphorylation/dephosphorylation process, the recombinant enzymes and cytosolic-enriched fractions were incubated in the presence of commercial protein phosphatase or protein kinase. De-phosphorylation of ADP-PFK1 slightly decreased its activity (i.e. Vmax) and did not change its kinetic parameters and oligomeric state. Thus, the data indicated a predominant metabolic regulation of both FruBPase and ADP-PFK1 activities by adenine nucleotides and suggested high degrees of control on the respective pathway fluxes.
