Metabolic regulation, activity state, and intracellular binding of glucokinase in insulin-secreting cells

Institute of Clinical Biochemistry, Hannover Medical School, Germany.
Regulation of glucose-induced insulin secretion is crucially dependent on
glucokinase function in pancreatic beta-cells. Glucokinase mRNA expression
was metabolically regulated allowing continuous translation into enzyme
protein. Glucokinase enzyme activity in the beta-cell was exclusively
regulated by glucose. Using a selective permeabilization technique,
different intracellular activity states of the glucokinase enzyme in
bioengineered glucokinase-overexpressing RINm5F tissue culture cells were
observed. These results could be confirmed in analogous experiments with
dispersed islet cells. A diffusible glucokinase fraction with high enzyme
activity could be distinguished from an intracellularly bound fraction with
low activity. Glucose induced a significant long-term increase of the
active glucokinase fraction. This effect was accomplished through the
release of glucokinase enzyme protein from an intracellular binding site of
protein character. The inhibitory function of this protein factor was
abolished through proteolytic digestion or heat inactivation. Northern blot
analyses revealed that this binding protein was not identical to the
well-known liver glucokinase regulatory protein. This hitherto unknown new
protein factor may have the function of a glucokinase regulatory protein in
the pancreatic beta-cell, which may regulate glucokinase enzyme activity in
a glucose-dependent manner.
