Alkaline Phosphatase• Hydrolase enzyme found in E. coli• Located in the periplasm• Responsible for removing
phosphate groups from various chemicals
• Expression increases in the absence of phosphate
• Highly resistant to thermal inactivation and denaturation
• Exists as a dimer, each one containing two zinc and one magnesium ions
• Optimal activity at pH = 8.01. Stec, B., et al. (2000) “A revised mechanism for the alkaline phosphatase reaction involving three metal ions.” J. Mol. Biol., 299, 1303-1311.2.

The Effects of Chelation• Chelating agents are chemical
compounds that bind certain metals by forming coordination bonds with the metal ions
• EDTA is a common chelator that forms 6 coordination bonds
• DTPA is a stronger chelator that forms up to 8 coordination bonds
• Chelating agents can remove metal ions from proteins and affect their overall activity
EDTA, a common chelator for many metals
DTPA, a stronger chelator for metal ions

Experimental Purpose and Design• To determine how AP activity is affected when treated with the
chelating agent DTPA and how it compares to treatment with EDTA• Monitor effects by conducting activity assays and recording initial
velocity (Vo) readings for the following:*AP treated with EDTA-Incubation performed at room temperature-Varying incubation time
*AP treated with DTPA-Incubation performed at room temperature-Varying incubation time-Varying concentrations

Enzyme Preparation
• Dialyzed the AP with Tris buffer, pH = 7.4 to remove various metal-containing salts.• Dialysis was performed in a 50 kDA Amicon Centricon, which also concentrated the enzyme within a smaller volume
• Diluted 30 uL of purchased AP into 1 mL of Tris buffer, pH = 7.4.• The dilution was then added to a centricon.

Conclusion
• Incubation with DTPA is an effective method for inactivating alkaline phosphatase activity
• DTPA is a chelating agent that inactivates AP nearly twice as quickly as does EDTA
• DTPA could possibly be used for other assays in which alkaline phosphatase activity needs to be inhibited

Future Directions
• Determining the pH, temperature, and concentration dependencies of AP inactivation via metal chelation
• Investigate whether only zinc ions are removed or if magnesium is also removed
• Observing AP’s activity when it uses other metal cofactors after treatment with DTPA
