The light and dark forms of phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) carboxylase (PEPC) from the dicot plant Amaranthus viridis L. were purified and their kinetic properties were studied in water-based or binary alcohol-water solvents. At pH 7.3, the specific activity of the purified light form was about 2.7-fold higher than that presented by the dark form of PEPC under optimal conditions, while K_m remained virtually unchanged in both forms. The enzyme's light form was better activated by glucose 6-phosphate and less inhibited by L-malate than the dark PEPC. From the organic solvents studied, methanol showed the most important effect, enhancing PEPC activity by two-fold at 20% (v/v). Ethanol, ethylene glycol, tert-butanol and 2-propanol were also activators to a lesser degree, but at high concentrations (typically greater than 20%, v/v) the effect was reduced or turned to inhibition. K_m (PEP) was reduced by an order of magnitude in the presence of 20% (v/v) methanol (i.e. from 0.32 to 0.022 mM for the light form of the enzyme). The inhibitory effect of malate at low PEP was lessened by methanol for both forms (i.e. I_<50> 0.25 mM in aqueous medium to 0.48 mM in binary mixture for the dark form), while glucose-6-P activation of PEPC was not affected by methanol. The results suggest that the kinetics of PEPC in a medium that mimics more closely in vivo conditions are different from those observed by standard procedures consisting of aqueous media, and provide a new insight on the properties of PEPC as related to its regulation in vivo.
