Purification and characterization of a novel ADP-dependent glucokinase from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Pyrococcus furiosus.
Kengen S.W.M., Tuininga J.E., de Bok F.A.M., Stams A.J.M., de Vos W.M.

Pyrococcus furiosus uses a modified Embden-Meyerhof pathway during growth on poly- or disaccharides. Instead of the usual ATP-dependent glucokinase, this pathway involves a novel ADP-dependent (AMP-forming) glucokinase. The level of this enzyme and some other glycolytic enzymes appeared to be closely regulated by the substrate. Growth on cellobiose resulted in a high specific activity of 0.96 units mg-1, whereas on pyruvate a 10-fold lower activity was found. The ADP-dependent glucokinase was purified 1350-fold to homogeneity. The oxygen-stable enzyme had a molecular mass of 93 kDa and was composed of two identical subunits (47 kDa). The glucokinase was highly specific for ADP, which could not be replaced by ATP, phosphoenolpyruvate, GDP, PPi, or polyphosphate. D-Glucose could be replaced only by 2-deoxy-D-glucose, albeit with a low efficiency. The Km values for D-glucose and ADP were 0.73 and 0.033 mM, respectively. An optimum temperature of 105 degrees C and a half-life of 220 min at 100 degrees C are in agreement with the requirements of this hyperthermophilic organism. The properties of the glucokinase are compared to those of less thermoactive gluco/hexokinases. << Less

Although the chitinolytic pathway of the hyperthermophilic archaeon Thermococcus kodakarensis is well-studied, the genome does not contain genes homologous to previously identified glucosamine kinase genes. As some ADP-dependent glucokinases in the order Thermococcales exhibit phosphorylation activities for both glucose and glucosamine in vitro, the homolog in T. kodakarensis, encoded by TK1110, was selected as a candidate for the missing glucosamine kinase gene. The purified, recombinant TK1110 enzyme exhibited phosphorylation activities for not only glucose but also glucosamine and N-acetylglucosamine. Kinetic analysis indicated that activity towards glucosamine was as significant as that towards glucose. In order to determine the physiological role of TK1110 in the chitinolytic pathway of T. kodakarensis, a gene disruption strain of TK1110 was constructed. When grown in chitin-containing medium, the TK1110 disruption resulted in almost complete impairment in chitin degradation, and a complete loss of chitin-dependent H<sub>2</sub> production. As H<sub>2</sub> production is tightly linked to cell growth in T. kodakarensis, the present results strongly suggest that TK1110 functions as the glucosamine kinase responsible for the chitin degradation in T. kodakarensis. << Less

The ADP-dependent (AMP-forming) glucokinases from the hyperthermophilic archaea Pyrococcus furiosus and Thermococcus litoralis catalyze the phosphorylation of glucose using ADP as the essential phosphoryl group donor. Both enzymes were purified to homogeneity and characterized with regard to each other. The enzymes had similar enzymological properties as to substrate specificity, coenzyme specificity, optimum pH, and thermostability. However, a difference was observed in the subunit composition; while the T. litoralis enzyme is a monomer with a molecular mass of 52 kDa, the P. furiosus enzyme has a molecular mass of about 100 kDa and consists of two subunits with identical molecular masses of 47 kDa. The genes encoding these enzymes were cloned and sequenced. The gene for the P. furiosus enzyme contains an open reading frame for 455 amino acids with a molecular weight of 51,265, and that for the T. litoralis enzyme contains an open reading frame for 467 amino acids with a molecular weight of 53,621. About 59% similarity in amino acid sequence was observed between these two enzymes, whereas they did not show similarity with any ATP-dependent kinases that have been reported so far. In addition, two phosphate binding domains, and adenosine and glucose binding motifs commonly conserved in the eukaryotic hexokinase family were not observed. << Less
