Involvement of an “Antizyme’ in the Inactivation of Ornithine Decarboxylase

Abstract: DL‐Allylglycine causes a marked increase in mouse brain ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity. The amount of immunoreactive enzyme protein increases concomitantly with the activity, but the enzyme protein decreases more slowly than that of the activity. The amount of immunoreactive ODC in brain is many hundred times that of the catalytically active enzyme. The fact that mouse brain cytosol contains high amounts of dissociable antizyme (an inactivating protein) indicates the existence of an inactive, immunoreactive ODC‐antizyme pool. The total antizyme content does not change markedly, but instead there are significant changes in different antizyme pools. Putrescine concentrations start to increase 8 h after treatment with allylglycine and concomitantly with this increase, antizyme is released to inhibit enzyme activity. These results indicate the involvement of antizyme in the inactivation process of ODC.
