The allosteric
behavior of the p-nitrophenyl-
phosphatase (EC.3.1.3.1) from
membrane erythrocytes was investigated in the following mulltisystemic
diseases myotonic dystrophy limb-girdle muscular dystrophy , Charcot-Marie-
Tooth and
juvenile spinal muscular atrophy ; in
myotonia congenita . which is not a multisystemic
disease , and in healthy controls. The Hill coefficient in F-inhibition in controls was different from that in multisystemic
diseases patients but not from that in
myotonia congenita patients . Changes in the cooperative type
kinetics would suggest that the interaction
membrane -
enzyme in controls and in
patients with neuromuscular disorders is only different for multisystemic
diseases
