Abstract

Adenylate kinase (ATP:AMP phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.4.3) (AK) is the enzyme that catalyzes the reversible conversion of MgATP + AMP to MgADP + ADP, a principal step in adenine nucleotide metabolism and cellular energy homeostasis. To enrich the information about fish AKs, we isolated this enzyme from the lateral muscle of bastard halibut Paralichthys olivaceus and biochemically characterized it. The halibut enzyme (PoAK) extracted from the lateral muscle was purified by column chromatographies on TOYOPEARL SP-650 M and Superdex 75 10/300. The purified PoAK showed a single protein band of ~ 22 kDa on SDS–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and optimal temperature and pH at around 40 °C and 7, respectively. PoAK was appreciably heat stable, e.g., the temperature that caused 50% inactivation during 30-min incubation was 54 °C. The molar ratio for ATP:ADP:AMP in the equilibrium state of the reaction was ~ 1:1:1. Peptide mass fingerprinting indicated that PoAK is the product of adenylate kinase isoform 1 gene (GenBank, XP_019937160.1) encoded in the halibut genome. The deduced amino-acid sequence of the halibut AK comprised 194 residues and showed 92, 91 and 81% amino-acid identities to those of a putative rainbow trout AK, a carp AK and a chicken AK, respectively.
