Abstract
Rabbit liver fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FDPase) can reversibly inactivate both rabbit muscle and rat liver phosphofructokinases (PFK) under appropriate conditions. The peptide factor which stabilizes rat liver PFK-L 2 against thermal inactivation has now been found to protect both PFKs from inactivation by FDPase. Assay at high ATP (ca. 3 mM) is necessary to demonstrate these reversible changes. In addition, the activation of FDPase by liver cytosol, by oleate plus cytosol, or by oleate plus muscle PFK is lowere about 50% in the presence of peptide factor. These observations suggest an active participation of the peptide factor in regulation of liver glycolysis and gluconeogenesis.
