Mouse phenylalanine hydroxylase. Homology and divergence from human phenylalanine hydroxylase.

The laboratory mouse represents an important model for the study of phenylalanine metabolism and the pathochemistry of phenylketonuria, yet mouse phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) has not been extensively studied. We report the cloning and sequencing of a mouse PAH cDNA, the expression of enzymic activity from the mouse PAH cDNA clone and the identification of mouse PAH and human PAH by two-dimen...

Mechanism of phenylalanine regulation of phenylalanine hydroxylase.

The mechanism of phenylalanine regulation of rat liver phenylalanine hydroxylase was studied. We show that phenylalanine "activates" phenylalanine hydroxylase, converting it from an inactive to active form, by binding at a true allosteric regulatory site. One phenylalanine molecule binds per enzyme subunit; it remains at this site during catalytic turnover and, while there, cannot be hydroxylat...

Phenylalanine hydroxylase: metabolic aspects.

Phenylalanine hydroxylase [L-phenylalanine,tetrahydropteridine :oxygen oxidoreductase (4-hydroxylating); EC 1.14.16.11 catalyses the first reaction in the irreversible catabolism of the essential amino acid phenylalanine. Studies of the isolated enzyme and of phenylalanine metabolism in viuo and in oitro support the view that the hydroxylase plays the major role in regulating phenylalanine disp...

Characterization of phenylalanine hydroxylase.

Iron can be bound to phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) in two environments. The assignment of the electron paramagnetic resonance spectrum of PAH to two, overlapping high-spin ferric signals is confirmed by computer simulation. Both environments are shown to be populated in the crude enzyme. Reconstitution of the apoenzyme demonstrated that the two iron environments are not interconvertible. Oxyg...

Liver phenylalanine hydroxylase assay.

The first reaction is catalyzed by phenylalanine hydroxylase and the second reaction, which generates the reduced form of pteridine cofactor (biopterin), is catalyzed by dihydropteridine reductase (l-3). A direct assay of phenylalanine hydroxylase can be achieved by supplying optimal concentrations of reduced pteridine cofactor or an analog of the reduced cofactor (6,7-dimethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahyd...
