and
From the GAD65, the smaller isoform of the
Department of Medicine,
-aminobutyric acid-synthesizing enzyme glutamic acid decarboxylase
is detected as an
/
doublet of distinct mobility on
SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Glutamic acid decarboxylase
(GAD) 65 is reversibly anchored to the membrane of synaptic vesicles in
neurons and synaptic-like microvesicles in pancreatic
-cells. Here
we demonstrate that GAD65
but not
is phosphorylated in
vivo and in vitro in several cell types.
Phosphorylation is not the cause of the
/
heterogeneity but
represents a unique post-translational modification of GAD65
. Two-dimensional protein analyses identified five phosphorylated species
of three different charges, which are likely to represent mono-, di-,
and triphosphorylated GAD65
in different combinations of
phosphorylated serines. Phosphorylation of GAD65
was located at
serine residues 3, 6, 10, and 13, shown to be mediated by a membrane
bound kinase, and distinguish the membrane anchored, and soluble forms
of the enzyme. Phosphorylation status does not affect membrane
anchoring of GAD65, nor its Km or
Vmax for glutamate. The results are consistent
with a model in which GAD65
and -
constitute the two subunits of
the native GAD65 dimer, only one of which,
, undergoes
phosphorylation following membrane anchoring, perhaps to regulate
specific aspects of GAD65 function in the synaptic vesicle
membrane.
