摘要
PC-1 is an ecto-enzyme possessing alkaline phosphodiesterase I and nucleotide pyrophosphatase activities. In this paper, we demonstrate the expression, biochemical characterization and biosynthesis of human PC-1. Previously, there has been uncertainty concerning which of two methionine residues is the initiator. It is now shown that expression of PC-1 is much greater if the first methionine residue is present, and that the sequence between the two methionine residues is translated in both human and mouse, in both transfected cells and cells naturally expressing PC-1. The first methionine residue is therefore the initiator. Human PC-1 is capable of autophosphorylation, and conditions are described in which PC-1 is the only labelled phosphoprotein on the plasma membranes of intact cells, allowing the demonstration that the mature membrane form of human PC-1 is approximately 10 kDa larger than that of the mouse form. Pulse-chase biosynthetic studies and treatment with two different endoglycosidases show that most of this difference is due to N-linked oligosaccharides. The polypeptide backbone of human PC-1 is 20 amino acids longer than that of the mouse PC-1, with most of the difference in polypeptide chain length being in the cytoplasmic domain. The revised cytoplasmic domain of human PC-1 has 76 amino acids, while the mouse cytoplasmic domain has 58 amino acids. Optimal alignment of mouse and human cytoplasmic domains reveals areas of sequence conservation in which the third bases vary. It is suggested that these regions of conservation may point to functionally important sequences in the cytoplasmic domain.
