Tetrameric rabbit muscle aldolase is dissociated to the inactive monomer at strongly alkaline pH (pH greater than or equal to 12). As shown by sedimentation velocity, fluorescence emission, and specific activity, the final profiles of dissociation, denaturation, and deactivation run parallel. Increasing incubation time proves the enzyme to be metastable in the pH range of deactivation. At 10 less than pH less than 12 "hysteresis" of the deactivation-reactivation reaction is observed. Short incubation at pH greater than or equal to 12 leads to high yields of reactivation (greater than or equal to 60%), while irreversibly denatured enzyme protein is the final product after long incubation. The kinetics of reconstitution under essentially irreversible conditions (pH 7.6) can be described by a sequential uni-bimolecular mechanism, assuming partial activity of the isolated subunits. The kinetic constants correspond to those observed for the reactivation after denaturation at acid pH or in 6M guanidine. HCl. Obviously the pH-dependent deactivation and reactivation of aldolase at alkaline pH obeys the general transconformation/association model which has been previously reported to hold for the reconstitution of numerous oligomeric enzymes after denaturation in various denaturants.
