The cytosolic fumarase [EC 4.2.1.2[ of rat liver was bound, after dialysis, to the microsomal membrane in vitro. Binding of the enzyme was dependent on pH, and was facilitated in the pH range below 7.5. The binding reaction was completely inhibited by 0.5 mM fumarate, aurintricarboxylate or colchicine. The bound fumarase was released from the membrane by the substrates, isocitrate, citrate or 2,3-diphosphoglycerate at low concentrations. Desorption of the enzyme by metabolites was also dependent on pH, and was more rapid in the alkaline pH range. The enzyme desorption curves were sigmoidal, and kinetic studies suggested a biphasic cooperative mechanism for the action of the metabolites. The apparent desorption constants (concentrations necessary for 50% desorption of the enzyme) estimated at pH 7.3 for isocitrate, 2,3-diphosphoglycerate, L-malate, oxalacetate, fumarate, citrate, succinate, and KCl were 0.073, 0.074, 0.22, 0.39, 0.56, 2.9, and 19 mM, respectively. The bound fumarase showed little enzymatic activity, and its Km and Vmax values were fivefold and 31%, respectively, of those of the free enzyme.
