Abstract
Two isoenzymes of phosphoglucomutase from spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) leaves can be separated by ammonium-sulfate gradient solubilization or DEAE-cellulose ion exchange chromatography. They were designated as phosphoglucomutase 1 and 2, according to decreasing electrophoretic mobility towards the anode at pH 8.9. Phosphoglucomutase 1 is localized in the stroma of the chloroplasts, phosphoglucomutase 2 is a cytosolic enzyme as judged from aqueous cell fractionation studies. Both isoenzymes have very similar properties such as dependence on MgCl2, pH activity profile, and Km for glucose-1-phosphate and glucose-1,6-bisphosphate. From sedimentation-velocity analysis a molecular weight of 60,000 was estimated for either isoenzyme.
