Protein phosphatase type 1 is the major enzyme in skeletal muscle and liver for the dephosphorylation of Ser(P) and Thr(P) phosphoproteins. The cDNA for the catalytic subunit encodes a polypeptide of Mr 35,400 kDa, consistent with the Mr of 36,000-38,000 of the active protein purified in various laboratories. However, several investigators have found a Mr 70,000 protein for phosphatase type 1. In this report proteins of Mr 38,000 and 70,000 were resolved by Mono Q chromatography after extensive copurification from rabbit skeletal muscle. Antibodies affinity-purified against a type 1 phosphatase catalytic fragment reacted with both proteins in Western immunoblotting. Fractions from each peak were cleaved with cyanogen bromide and the major peptides were the same size by electrophoresis in gradient polyacrylamide gels. Cyanogen bromide peptides of the individual bands also were mapped by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. The purified Mr 38,000 and 70,000 proteins had identical HPLC peptide maps and also gave the same amino acid compositions after acid hydrolysis. Purified Mr 38,000 phosphatase catalytic subunit spontaneously formed a Mr 70,000 dimer that resisted usual dissociation conditions, i.e., boiling dodecyl sulfate plus 2-mercaptoethanol, but could be cleaved to about half size by various proteases, indicating that monomers were bound together near their amino or carboxy termini. Physiological changes in protein phosphatase type 1 are reflected in the amount of nondissociable dimers detected in tissue extracts.
