Abstract	Phenylglyoxal, a reagent with high specificity for arginine residues, inactivated Ap4A phosphorylase I from Saccharomyces cerevisiae in a pseudo-first-order manner. The second-order rate constant was 11.5 +/- 2.5 M-1 min-1. The loss of activity was a linear function of the incorporation of [7-14C]phenylglyoxal. The incorporation of 1.9 +/- 0.4 mol of phenylglyoxal/mol of enzyme accounted for complete loss of activity. The specificity of inactivation by phenylglyoxal was tested in the presence of ApnA (n = 2-6), ADP, ATP and Pi. The substrates, Ap4A, Ap5A and Pi protected the enzyme against inactivation, but Ap2A, Ap3A and Ap6A did not. Ap4A, Ap5A and Pi reduced the rate of inactivation by about 70%, 60% and 37% respectively. The Ap4A phosphorolysis products, ADP and ATP, also partially protected the enzyme against inactivation by phenylglyoxal. Thus Ap4A phosphorylase I probably contains an arginine residue in the binding site for Ap4A.
