TL;DR
Bovine brain cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase was found to require higher concentrations of the Ca 2+ -regulated protein modulator for activation than the heart enzyme due to the presence of an inhibitory factor in brain preparations.
Abstract
Bovine brain cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase was found to require higher concentrations of the Ca2+-regulated protein modulator for activation than the heart enzyme. This was due to the presence of an inhibitory factor in brain preparations. The factor could be separated from the enzyme by gel filtration on a C-200 Sephadex column. Rechtromatography of the factor on a G-200 Sephadex column showed a single activity peak with an estimated molecular weight of 110,000. The factor appears to be a protein since it was susceptible to trypsin or chymotrypsin but not to RNase, DNase or amylase. The protein factor specifically counteracts the activation of phosphodiesterase by the protein modulator. This protein factor may be either a new regulatory for phosphodiesterase or an additional modulator-regulated enzyme.

Findings indicate that brain adenylate cyclase required an activator for activity and that this activator is functionally identical to the protein activator of phosphodiesterase (J.B.C. 249: 4943–4954, 1974).

The results suggest that the activator and the enzyme may exist in equilibrium among their respective free forms and the active protein complex and that this equilibrium may be modulated by cAMP.

The ratio of the activity of the activator to that of the phosphodiesterase varied greatly from tissue to tissue as well as during development, suggesting that the two proteins are under separate genetic control.

The “Ca2+ plus Mg2+-dependent” phosphodiesterase may exist as the inactive free form in equilibrium with the active enzymemodulator (Ca2+) complex, and Ca2+, through binding to the modulator, may shift the equilibrium towards formation of the active enzyme-modulator complex, thereby increasing the activity of the mixture.
