Resumen:
The tegumental membrane of Taenia crassiceps cysticeri contains an ATP-diphosphohydrolase (EC 3.6.1.5) which hydrolyzes purine and pyrimidine nucleoside 5'-di- and 5'-tri phosphates at an optimum pH of 8.5. It is Mg(2+)-dependent and insensitive to classical ATPase and phosphatase inhibitors. In solubilized tegumental membrane the Km values varied from 220 to 480 mu M and the V(max) from 370 to 748 nmol of Pi release/mg/min for nucleoside triphosphates (ATP, GTP, CTP, UTP, and TTP); for nucleoside diphosphates (ADP, GDP, CDP, and UDP) the Krn values were from 260 to 450 mu M and the V(max) from 628 to 1134 nmol of Pi release/mg/min. An antibody specific to CD39 shows cross-reactivity with T crassiceps ATP-diphosphohydrolase, revealing a single protein of similar to 80 kDa. Incubation of ATP-diphosphohydrolase with FSBA inhibited ATPase and ADPase activities by 85-90%. Immunoblot analyses, the competition plot, similar inhibition by free nucleotides, the lack of effect of Mg(2+) at high
