Rat brain hexokinase (ATP: d-hexose-6-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7. 1.1) is rapidly inactivated by reaction with 5, 5′-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoate). The inactivation follows monophasic first-order kinetics in either the absence of ligands (k= 0.641 min− 1 at 25° C) or in the presence of saturating levels of ATP (free or complexed with Mg 2+) or P 1; the inactivation rate is slightly increased (k⋍ 0.7 min− 1) in the presence of ATP or P 1. In contrast, glucose and glucose-6-P markedly decrease the inactivation rate; inactivation in the presence of these ligands is biphasic, with two first-order rates (k⋍ 0.5 min− 1 and 0.01 min− 1) being distinguishable. The enzyme contains 14 sulfhydryl groups which react with 5, 5′-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoate); reaction of these groups in the native enzyme is complete after 2 hr at 25° C, or in approx 5 min with the urea or guanidine-denatured enzyme. In the native enzyme, three classes of sulfhydryl groups are distinguishable and are designated as F-, I-, or S-type based on their fast (k⪢ 0.7 min− 1), intermediate (k⋍ 0.5-0.7 min− 1), or slow (k⋍ 0.02 min− 1 rates of reaction with 5, 5′-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoate). The correlation of inactivation rates with the rates for reaction of the I-type sulfhydryls indicates that the I-type sulfhydryls include residues necessary for catalytic activity. The F-type residues are clearly not required for activity. The effects of ATP, P 1, glucose, and glucose-6-P on the reactivity of the sulfhydryls have been determined. As in the absence of ligands, S-, I-, and F-type sulfhydryls could be distinguished. In the presence of saturating concentrations of these ligands, the F, I, and S classes of sulfhydryls contained respectively: with ATP, 1, 4, and 7 residues; with P 1, 1, 3, and 7 residues; with glucose, 1, 2, and 5 residues; with glucose-6-P, 1, 2, and 1 residues. Comparison with rate constants for inactivation in the presence of these ligands again indicated that I-type sulfhydryls were particularly important in maintenance of enzyme activity. The present results indicate considerable similarity between the reactivity of the sulfhydryl residues in rat brain hexokinase and the sulfhydryls of the bovine brain enzyme [VD Redkar and UW Kenkare (1972), J. Biol. Chem., 247, 7576–7584].
