Microsomal fractions from pig and calf brain
catalyze the enzymatic dephosphorylation of endogenous and
exogenous dolichyl monophosphate (Dol-P) (Sumbilla, C. A.,
and Waechter, C. J. (1985) Methods Enzymol. 111, 471-482). The Dol-P phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.51) has been solubilized by
extracting pig brain microsomes with the nonionic detergent Nonidet
P-40 and purified approximately 1,107-fold by a combination of anion
exchange chromatography, polyethylene glycol fractionation, dye-ligand
chromatography, and wheat germ agglutinin affinity chromatography.
Treatment of the enzyme with neuraminidase prevented binding to wheat
germ agglutinin-Sepharose, indicating the presence of one or more
N-acetylneuraminyl residues per molecule of enzyme. When
the highly purified polyisoprenyl phosphate phosphatase was analyzed by
SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, a major 33-kDa polypeptide was
observed. Enzymatic dephosphorylation of Dol-P by the purified
phosphatase was 1) optimal at pH 7; 2) potently inhibited by
F
, orthovanadate, and Zn2+ > Co2+ > Mn2+ but unaffected by
Mg2+; 3) exhibited an approximate Km
for C95-Dol-P of 45 µM; and 4) was sensitive
to N-ethylmaleimide, phenylglyoxal, and diethylpyrocarbonate. The pig brain phosphatase did not dephosphorylate glucose 6-phosphate, mannose 6-phosphate, 5'-AMP, or
p-nitrophenylphosphate, but it dephosphorylated
dioleoyl-phosphatidic acid at initial rates similar to those determined
for Dol-P. Based on the virtually identical sensitivity of Dol-P and
phosphatidic acid dephosphorylation by the highly purified enzyme to
N-ethylmaleimide, F
, phenylglyoxal, and
diethylpyrocarbonate, both substrates appear to be hydrolyzed by a
single enzyme with an apparent dual specificity. This is the first
report of the purification of a neutral Dol-P phosphatase from
mammalian tissues. Although the enzyme is Mg2+-independent
and capable of dephosphorylating Dol-P and PA, several enzymological
properties distinguish this lipid phosphomonoesterase from PAP2.
