Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase partially purified from leaves of Crassula and rendered insensitive to malate by storage without adjuvants can be altered to the form sensitive to malate inhibition by brief, 5-minute preincubation with 5 millimolar malate. The induction of malate sensitivity is reversible by lowering the malate(2-) concentration. Of the reaction components only HCO(3) (-) increases the sensitivity to malate in subsequent assay. Phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP), which itself tends to lower sensitivity to subsequent malate inhibition, also reduces the effect of malate in the assay, as does glucose-6-phosphate. PEP isotherms showed that the insensitive or unpreincubated enzyme, responds to the presence of 5 millimolar malate during assay with a 3-fold increase in K(m), but no effect on V(max). Enzyme preincubated with malate shows the same effect of malate on K(m), but in addition V(max) is inhibited 72%. It thus appears that both sensitive and insensitive forms of PEP carboxylase are subject to K-type inhibition by malate, but only the sensitive form also shows V-type inhibition. Preincubation with malate at different pH values showed that at pH 6.15, the inhibition by malate in subsequent assay at pH 7 was much lower than at pH 7 or 8. When the reaction is prerun for 30 minutes with increasing concentrations of PEP, subsequent assay with malate shows progressively less inhibition due to malate. When 0.3 millimolar PEP either alone or with 0.1 millimolar ATP and 0.3 millimolar NaF is present during preincubation, the effect of malate in a following assay is to activate the reaction. These results may indicate an effect of phosphorylation of the enzyme on sensitivity to malate.
