Abstract
Homogeneous rat liver ATP-citrate lyase (EC 4.1.3.8) was phosphorylated by the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. In agreement with other workers, the maximum level of phosphorylation that we observed was approx. 2 mol/mol of tetramer. Phosphorylated and non-phosphorylated forms of ATP-citrate lyase were prepared. Their kinetic properties were examined using an assay system in which the concentrations of Mg · ATP, magnesium·citrate and CoA were varied systematically at a constant concentration of Mg2+. The phosphorylated form had a two-fold higher Km for Mg · ATP than did the non-phosphorylated form, but no other kinetic differences between the two forms were detected. When ATP-citrate lyase was assayed at a concentration of Mg · ATP well below Km, it was found that phosphorylation of the enzyme correlated well with a decrease of approx. 50% in its activity This is the first demonstration that phosphorylation can affect the activity of ATP-citrate lyase.
