Pyridoxal-reconstituted phosphorylase was used as a model system to study the possible functions of the 5'-phosphoryl group of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) in rabbit muscle glycogen phosphorylase. Kinetic study was conducted by using competitive inhibitors of phosphite, an activator, and alpha-D-glucopyranose 1-phosphate (glucose-1-P) to study the relationship between the PLP phosphate and the binding of glucose-1-P to phosphorylase. Fluorine-19 nuclear magnetic resonance (19F NMR) spectroscopy of fluorophosphate bound to pyridoxal phosphorylase showed that its ionization state did not change during enzymatic catalysis. Evaluation of the apparent kinetic parameters for the activation of pyridoxal phosphorylase with different analogues having varied pKa2 values demonstrated a dependency of KM on pKa2. Molybdate, capable of binding as chelates in a trigonal-bipyramidal configuration, was tested for its inhibitory property with pyridoxal phosphorylase. On the basis of the results in this study, several conclusions may be drawn: (1) The bound phosphite in pyridoxal phosphorylase and, possibly, the 5'-phosphoryl group of PLP in native phosphorylase do not effect the glucose-1-P binding. (2) One likely function of the 5'-phosphoryl group of PLP in native phosphorylase is acting as an anchoring point to hold the PLP molecule and/or various amino acid side chains in a proper orientation for effective catalysis. (3) The force between the PLP phosphate and its binding site in phosphorylase is mainly electrostatic; a change of ionization state during catalysis is unlikely. (4) Properties of the central atoms of different anions are important for their effects as either activators or inhibitors of pyridoxal phosphorylase.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
