چکیده انگلیسی
Glucokinase is a hexokinase isoform with low affinity for glucose that has previously been identified as a cytosolic enzyme. A recent report claims that glucokinase physically associates with liver mitochondria to form a multi-protein complex that may be physiologically important in apoptotic signaling [N.N. Danial, C.F. Gramm, L. Scorrano, C.Y. Zhang, S. Krauss, A.M. Ranger, S.R. Datta, M.E. Greenberg, L.J. Licklider, B.B. Lowell, S.P. Gygi, S.J. Korsmeyer, Nature 424 (2003) 952-956]. Here, we re-examined the association of glucokinase with isolated mouse liver mitochondria. When glucokinase activity was measured by coupled enzyme assay, robust activity was present in whole liver homogenates and their 9500g supernatants (cytosol), but activity in the purified mitochondrial fraction was below detection (<0.2% of homogenate). Furthermore, addition of 45Â mM glucose in the presence of ATP did not increase mitochondrial respiration, indicating the absence of ADP formation by glucokinase or any other hexokinase isoform. Immunoblots of liver homogenates and cytosol revealed strong glucokinase bands, but no immunoreactivity was detected in mitochondria. In conclusion, mouse liver mitochondria lack measurable glucokinase. Thus, functional linkage of glucokinase to mitochondrial metabolism and apoptotic signaling is unlikely to be mediated by the physical association of glucokinase with mitochondria.
