A novel NADPH:(bound) NADP+ reductase and NADH:(bound) NADP+ transhydrogenase function in bovine liver catalase.

ABSTRACT: Many catalases have the shared property of containing bound NADPH and being susceptible to inactivation by their own substrate, H2O2. The presence of additional (unbound) NADPH effectively prevents bovine liver and human erythrocytic catalase from becoming compound II, the reversibly inactivated state of catalase, and NADP+ is known to be generated in the process. The function of the bound NADPH, which is tightly bound in bovine liver catalase, has been unknown. The present study with bovine liver catalase and [14C]NADPH and [14C]NADH revealed that unbound NADPH or NADH are substrates for an internal reductase and transhydrogenase reaction respectively; the unbound NADPH or NADH cause tightly bound NADP+ to become NADPH without becoming tightly bound themselves. This and other results provide insight into the function of tightly bound NADPH.

Structural analysis of NADPH depleted bovine liver catalase and its inhibitor complexes.

Project description:To study the functional role of NADPH during mammalian catalase inhibition, the X-ray crystal structures of NADPH-depleted bovine liver catalase and its inhibitor complexes, cyanide and azide, determined at 2.8Å resolution. From the complex structures it is observed that subunits with and without an inhibitor/catalytic water molecule are linked by N-terminal domain swapping. Comparing mammalian- and fungal- catalases, we speculate that NADPH-depleted mammalian catalases may function as a domain-swapped dimer of dimers, especially during inactivation by inhibitors like cyanide and azide. We further speculate that in mammalian catalases the N-terminal hinge-loop region and ?-helix is the structural element that senses NADPH binding. Although the above arguments are speculative and need further verification, as a whole our studies have opened up a new possibility, viz. that mammalian catalase acts as a domain-swapped dimer of dimers, especially during inhibitor binding. To generalize this concept to the formation of the inactive state in mammalian catalases in the absence of tightly bound NADPH molecules needs further exploration. The present study adds one more intriguing fact to the existing mysteries of mammalian catalases.

NADH- and NADPH-dependent formation of superoxide anions by bovine heart submitochondrial particles and NADH-ubiquinone reductase preparation.

Project description:1. Both NADH and NADPH supported the oxidation of adrenaline to adrenochrome in bovine heart submitochondrial particles. The reaction was completely inhibited in the presence of superoxide dismutase, suggesting that superoxide anions (O(2) (-)) are responsible for the oxidation. The optimal pH of the reaction with NADPH was at pH7.5, whereas that with NADH was at pH9.0. The reaction was inhibited by treatment of the preparation with p-hydroxymercuribenzoate and stimulated by treatment with rotenone. Antimycin A and cyanide stimulated the reaction to the same extent as rotenone. The NADPH-dependent reaction was inhibited by inorganic salts at high concentrations, whereas the NADH-dependent reaction was stimulated. 2. Production of O(2) (-) by NADH-ubiquinone reductase preparation (Complex I) with NADH or NADPH as an electron donor was assayed by measuring the formation of adrenochrome or the reduction of acetylated cytochrome c which does not react with the respiratory-chain components. p-Hydroxymercuribenzoate inhibited the reaction and rotenone stimulated the reaction. The effects of pH and inorganic salts at high concentrations on the NADH- and NADPH-dependent reactions of Complex I were essentially similar to those on the reactions of submitochondrial particles. 3. These findings suggest that a region between a mercurialsensitive site and the rotenone-sensitive site of the respiratory-chain NADH dehydrogenase is largely responsible for the NADH- and NADPH-dependent O(2) (-) production by the mitochondrial inner membranes.

Emissive Synthetic Cofactors: Enzymatic Interconversions of tz A Analogues of ATP, NAD+ , NADH, NADP+ , and NADPH.

Project description:A series of enzymatic transformations, which generate visibly emissive isofunctional cofactors based on an isothiazolo[4,3-d]pyrimidine analogue of adenosine (tz A), was developed. Nicotinamide adenylyl transferase condenses nicotinamide mononucleotide and tz ATP to yield Ntz AD+ , which can be enzymatically phosphorylated by NAD+ kinase and ATP or tz ATP to the corresponding Ntz ADP+ . The latter can be engaged in NADP-specific coupled enzymatic transformations involving conversion to Ntz ADPH by glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and reoxidation to Ntz ADP+ by glutathione reductase. The Ntz ADP+ /Ntz ADPH cycle can be monitored in real time by fluorescence spectroscopy.

Effects of Resveratrol on the Structure and Catalytic Function of Bovine Liver catalase (BLC): Spectroscopic and Theoretical Studies.

Project description:Purpose: The study on the interaction between various compounds and macromolecules such as enzymes has been very important for monitoring the alteration of structural and functional properties of them. Resveratrol (3, 5, 4-trihydroxy-stilbene; RES) is a biologically active phytoallexin found in grapes and other food products. This article shows an interaction of native bovine liver catalase (BLC) with natural antioxidant product, trans resveratrol (tRES) using multispectroscopic methods. Methods: The interaction between BLC and tRES is performed using UV-vis absorption, fluorescence and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy and molecular docking study. Results: In vitro kinetic studies indicated that tRES can decrease BLC activity through uncompetitive inhibition. The results of spectroscopic methods represented that the binding of tRES with BLC can change the micro-region around aromatic amino acids (tryptophan (Trp) and tyrosine (Tyr)) and quench intrinsic fluorescence of BLC by a static mechanism. According to fluorescence quenching data analysis, it was revealed that tRES has one binding site on BLC. The thermodynamic parameters were obtained, which demonstrated that tRES can bind to BLC by van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonds. Molecular docking results indicated that tRES binds to BLC away from heme group and near to the Tyr 324 and Phe 265. These results are in agreement with the experimental results. Conclusion: The inhibitory effect of tRES on BLC demonstrated that excessive consumption of the antioxidants could be resulted in hazardous effects.

NADP(H) allosterically regulates the interaction between ferredoxin and ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase.

Project description:Ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase (FNR) in plants receives electrons from ferredoxin (Fd) at the end of the photosynthetic electron transfer chain and converts NADP+ to NADPH. The interaction between Fd and FNR in plants was previously shown to be attenuated by NADP(H). Here, we investigated the molecular mechanism of this phenomenon using maize FNR and Fd, as the three-dimensional structure of this complex is available. NADPH, NADP+ , and 2'5'-ADP differentially affected the interaction, as revealed through kinetic and physical binding analyses. Site-directed mutations of FNR which change the affinity for NADPH altered the affinity for Fd in the opposite direction to that for NADPH. We propose that the binding of NADP(H) causes a conformational change of FNR which is transferred to the Fd-binding region through different domains of FNR, resulting in allosteric changes in the affinity for Fd.

Regulation of p-nitroanisole O-demethylation in perfused rat liver. Adenine nucleotide inhibition of NADP+-dependent dehydrogenases and NADPH-cytochrome c reductase.

Project description:Perfusion of rat livers with 10 mM-fructose or pretreatment of the rat with 6-aminonicotinamide (70 mg/kg) 6 h before perfusion decreased intracellular ATP concentrations and increased the rate of p-nitroanisole O-demethylation. This increase was accompanied by a decrease in the free [NADP+]/[NADPH] ratio calculated from concentrations of substrates assumed to be in near-equilibrium with isocitrate dehydrogenase. After pretreatment with 6-aminonicotinamide the [NADP+]/[NADPH] ratio also declined. Reduction of NADP+ during mixed-function oxidation may be explained by inhibition of of one or more NADPH-generating enzymes. Glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase, 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase, isocitrate dehydrogenase and "malic" enzyme, partially purified from livers of phenobarbital-treated rats, were inhibited by ATP and ADP. Inhibitor constants of ATP for the four dehydrogenases varied considerably, ranging from 9 micrometer for "malic" enzyme to 1.85 mM for glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase. NADPH-cytochrome c reductase was also inhibited by ATP (Ki 2.8 mM) and by ADP (Ki 0.9 mM), but not by AMP. Concentrations of ATP and ADP that inhibited glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase and the reductase were comparable with concentrations in the intact liver. Thus agents that lower intracellular ATP may accelerate rates of mixed-function oxidation by a concerted mechanism involving deinhibition of NADPH-cytochrome c reductase and one or more NADPH-generating enzymes.

Cytosolic ratios of free [NADPH]/[NADP+] and [NADH]/[NAD+] in mouse pancreatic islets, and nutrient-induced insulin secretion.

Project description:When the extracellular concentration of glucose was raised from 3 mM to 7 mM (the concentration interval in which beta-cell depolarization and the major decrease in K+ permeability occur), the cytosolic free [NADPH]/[NADP+] ratio in mouse pancreatic islets increased by 29.5%. When glucose was increased to 20 mM, a 117% increase was observed. Glucose had no effect on the cytosolic free [NADH]/[NAD+] ratio. Neither the cytosolic free [NADPH]/[NADP+] ratio nor the corresponding [NADH]/[NAD+] ratio was affected when the islets were incubated with 20 mM-fructose or with 3 mM-glucose + 20 mM-fructose, although the last-mentioned condition stimulated insulin release. The insulin secretagogue leucine (10 mM) stimulated insulin secretion, but lowered the cytosolic free [NADPH]/[NADP+] ratio; 10 mM-leucine + 10 mM-glutamine stimulated insulin release and significantly enhanced both the [NADPH]/[NADP+] ratio and the [NADH]/[NAD+] ratio. It is concluded that the cytosolic free [NADPH]/[NADP+] ratio may be involved in coupling beta-cell glucose metabolism to beta-cell depolarization and ensuing insulin secretion, but it may not be the sole or major coupling factor in nutrient-induced stimulation of insulin secretion.

Ferredoxin-NADP+ reductase from Pseudomonas putida functions as a ferric reductase.

Project description:Pseudomonas putida harbors two ferredoxin-NADP(+) reductases (Fprs) on its chromosome, and their functions remain largely unknown. Ferric reductase is structurally contained within the Fpr superfamily. Interestingly, ferric reductase is not annotated on the chromosome of P. putida. In an effort to elucidate the function of the Fpr as a ferric reductase, we used a variety of biochemical and physiological methods using the wild-type and mutant strains. In both the ferric reductase and flavin reductase assays, FprA and FprB preferentially used NADPH and NADH as electron donors, respectively. Two Fprs prefer a native ferric chelator to a synthetic ferric chelator and utilize free flavin mononucleotide (FMN) as an electron carrier. FprB has a higher k(cat)/K(m) value for reducing the ferric complex with free FMN. The growth rate of the fprB mutant was reduced more profoundly than that of the fprA mutant, the growth rate of which is also lower than the wild type in ferric iron-containing minimal media. Flavin reductase activity was diminished completely when the cell extracts of the fprB mutant plus NADH were utilized, but not the fprA mutant with NADPH. This indicates that other NADPH-dependent flavin reductases may exist. Interestingly, the structure of the NAD(P) region of FprB, but not of FprA, resembled the ferric reductase (Fre) of Escherichia coli in the homology modeling. This study demonstrates, for the first time, the functions of Fprs in P. putida as flavin and ferric reductases. Furthermore, our results indicated that FprB may perform a crucial role as a NADH-dependent ferric/flavin reductase under iron stress conditions.

Spatiotemporal compartmentalization of hepatic NADH and NADPH metabolism.

Project description:Compartmentalization is a fundamental design principle of eukaryotic metabolism. Here, we review the compartmentalization of NAD+/NADH and NADP+/NADPH with a focus on the liver, an organ that experiences the extremes of biochemical physiology each day. Historical studies of the liver, using classical biochemical fractionation and measurements of redox-coupled metabolites, have given rise to the prevailing view that mitochondrial NAD(H) pools tend to be oxidized and important for energy homeostasis, whereas cytosolic NADP(H) pools tend to be highly reduced for reductive biosynthesis. Despite this textbook view, many questions still remain as to the relative size of these subcellular pools and their redox ratios in different physiological states, and to what extent such redox ratios are simply indicators versus drivers of metabolism. By performing a bioinformatic survey, we find that the liver expresses 352 known or predicted enzymes composing the hepatic NAD(P)ome, i.e. the union of all predicted enzymes producing or consuming NADP(H) or NAD(H) or using them as a redox co-factor. Notably, less than half are predicted to be localized within the cytosol or mitochondria, and a very large fraction of these genes exhibit gene expression patterns that vary during the time of day or in response to fasting or feeding. A future challenge lies in applying emerging new genetic tools to measure and manipulate in vivo hepatic NADP(H) and NAD(H) with subcellular and temporal resolution. Insights from such fundamental studies will be crucial in deciphering the pathogenesis of very common diseases known to involve alterations in hepatic NAD(P)H, such as diabetes and fatty liver disease.
